been upheld abroad. We have placed
the finances of the nation upon a
sound gold basis. We have done this
with the aid of many who were form
erly our opponents, but who would
| neither openly support nor silently
| acquiesce in the heresy of unsound
| finance: and we have done it against
the convinced and violent opposition
of the mass of our present opponents
who will refuse to recant the unsound
opinions which for the moment they
think it inexpedient to assert. We
know what we mean when we speak
of an honest and stable currency.
We mean the same thing from year
to year. We do not have to avoid a
definite and conclusive committal on
the most important issue which has
recently been before the people, and
which may at any time in the near
future be before them again. Upon
the principles which underlie this is
sue the convictions of half of our
number do not clash with those of the
other half. So long as the Republican
party is in power the gold standard is
settled, not as a matter of temporary
political expediency, not because of
shifting conditions in the production
of gold in certain minin" centers, but
in accordance with what we regard
as the fundamental principles of the
national morality and wisdom.
Under the financial legislation
which we have enacted there is now
ample circulation for every business
need; and every dollar of this circu-
lation is worth a dollar in gold. We
have reduced the interest-bearing
debt and in still larger measure the
interest on that debt. All of the war
taxes imposed during the Spanish war
have been removed with a view to
relieve the people and to prevent the
accumulation of an unnecessary sur
plus. The result is that hardly ever

Chicago, July 27.-Chief of Police
O'Neill today gave orders To the
packing companies to do all their
hauling on Halstead street which will
be strongly patrolled in order to af.
ford protection to the non-union dri-
vers. The order calling out the pack
ing house teamsters issued last night
affects many drivers employed by
other concerns, as all the union team
sters are forbidden to haul supplies
TO the packing plants. While it is
said TO be the intention of the pack
ers to ship practically all their meat
to outside points by rail and make
no effort to take care of the by-prod-
nets, the strikers expect to cause
them much Inconvenience by shutting
off supplies.
Fire broke out today at the stock
Yards in the lard refinery of Swift &
Co, and soon gained such headway
hat every available fire engine in
he stock yards district was called
mt. Rumors of incendiarism were cir
culated. Examination, however, show
ed the cause of the blaze to have
been an over-heated dynamo. Many
tierces of lard exploded spreading
burning grease. The fremen managed
% keep the fire from spreading.
The contents of the buildings were
said TO be valued at 100000.
Besides the fire another tumult AT
the stock yards today was caused by
he fact that wholesale picketing was

TROOPS CALLED OFF.
Miners Say Governor Peabody Was
Forced to Do So by the Repub-
Iican Party Managers.

Denver. Colo, July 27.-Adjutant
General Bell dissents from the opin-
ion of Governor Peabody that Cripple
Creek is sufficiently pacified to justi-
fy the withdrawal of troops which
was done last night by the Governors S
order. Il look for a clash, now that
military rule is ended" said Bell. Il
called off the militia, now let the un-
ions call off the strike" said Cover
nor eabody. I'VE can then submit
our differences to the people at the
polls and let them decide who is
right" To this suggestion, Secretary
Haywood of the Western Federation
of Miners, replied, THE calling off
of the militia has not the slightest
logical bearing upon the proposition
to call off the strike. Never was
there any occasion for calling out the
militia, and Governor Peabody calls
off his dogs of war at this time sole
ty on account of the great pressure
brought to bear upon him by the
managers of the Republican party.

ment. In the years that have gone
with the word; and IL we are contin-
ued in power we shall unswervingly
follow out the great lines of public
policy which the Republican party
has already laid down; a public poll
cy to which we are giving, and shall
give, united, and therefore an eff
cient, support.
In all of this we are more fortu-
nate than our opponents, who now
appeal for confidence ON the ground,
which some express and some seek
to have confidentially understood,
that if triumphant they may be trust
ed to be false to every principle
which in the last eight years they
have laid down as vital. and to leave
'undisturbed those very acts of the ad
ministration because of which they
ask that the administration itself be
driven from power. Seemingly their
present attitude as to their past rec
ord is that some of them were mistak
en- and others insincere. We make
our appeal in whole different spirit
We are not constrained to keep silent
on any question; we are divided on no
vital question; our policy is continu
Gus, and is the same for all sections
and localities. There is nothing ex.
perimental about the government we
ask the people to continue in power
for our performance in the past, our
proved governmental efficiency. is a
guarantee as to our promises for the
future. Our opponents, either open
ly or secretly, according to their sew
eral temperments, now ask the people
to trust their present promises in con
sideration OF the fact that they in
tend to treat their past promises as
null and void We know our own
minds and we have kept of the same
mind for a sufficient length of time
to give to our policy conference and
sanity In such a fundamental mat
ter as the enforcement of the law we
do not have to depend upon promises,
b"t merely to ask that our record be
taken as an earnest of what we shall
continue to do. In dealing with the
gE eat organizations known as trusts,
We do not have TO explain why the
laws were not enforced, but to point
out that they actually have been en-
forced and that legislation has been |
enacted to increase the effectiveness |
of their enforcement We do not have |
to propose to turn out the raseaas,' |
for we have shown it in very deed |
that whenever by diligent investiga-
tion public official can be found |
who has betrayed his trust he will be |
punished to the full extent of the
law without regard to whether he |
was appointed under Republican or
a Democratic administration. This |
is the efficient way to turn the rascals |
out and keep them out, and it has |
the merit of sincerity Moreover the
betrayals of trust in the last seven |
years have been insignificant in num-
Der when compared with the extent |
of the public service. Never has the
administration of the government |
been on a cleaner and higher level; |
never has the public work of the ma
ton been done more honestly and eff
nciently

ICE ~ JULY.
Natural Ice Forms in Sheen Troughs

Special to the eRcord
Magdalina, N NJ, July 27.-Reports
come from the sheep ranch of Frank
Bartlett on the SanAuglstine plains,
fifteen miles southwest OF Magdalina,
of July 6. and IA ice was found
on the surface of the water in the
troughs used by sheep on the ranch !:
the ice having formed during the
night. The ranch is 1000 feet above
the sea level. This peculiar atmOs-
pheric condition is most remarkable
as the days have been extremely hot
