Do you be- lleve that corporations and monopolies will die when llryan becomes president? It so, you Will besadlj disappointed. The silver leader and his subordinates are In favor of paying off creditors of our Government in silver. This is simply dishonest, nnd hence will spoil our credit and ruin our country. Do you think It right fur this Government to pay Ha obligations In sliver whon it borrowed ruld? Is It not icpudlatlon, nnd Is It not a inehsco toour financial Institutions ? llryanlsm threatens the .-supreme Court of our country. It says that the President of the United States Should not Interfere in a State. Do you believe that the State should be Independent of the na tional tioscrnnient and not recognizu the Hn premo ( nurt at Washington? Is uot that the ctoctrlno on which the secession movement woa based ? I There Is nothing more vital to the welfare of a (incrii'nent than the sanctity ut law. When tho laws, .mi! those whose duty It is to execute them, are allncs.ed.the Government is attacked. When our supreme Court Is attacked, tho foun dations of the republic are, attacked. Thu prosperity of our country depends on con fidence, aud when confidence is gone every enttrerlso suffer. Confidence cannot be re gained by the adoption of free and unlimited silver and the cheapening of the money paid to IiiLkit. The remedy Is to protect our Industries from foreign goods. Then the wheels of Industry will once more turn and put the machinery of our nation In motion. Then with Uncle yam cur chief engineer, we shall have plenty of work aud In piy receive a dollar worth one hundred cents. Previous to lN7:t we had the tree and un limited coinage of gold aud silver at the ratio of II) to 1. In that year, 1873, silver was worth two cants mure on the dollar. Why did not the free coinnge of the two metals hold them at a parity then If they would now? Looic at Mexico, Kussla, and Japan, the three principal silver countries. The gold dollar In Mexico is worth twice as much as the silver dol lar, and the gold ruble In Russia Is worth T7 rents and the silver ruble 37 cents, and the cold ten In Japan Is worth 00.7 cents, while a nlvcr yen Is worth only 50 cents. The scale of wages In these countries Is very low, and the tnode of living In such that It would startle us nnd make us thankful to Providence that we live In a country where we can gel work and wage that will allow us to live as civilized persons should live. itemember our Government Is founded upon justice and seeks to protect tho weak from the strung. It regulatcsthe value of the mniiey. and will hereafter, as It has hitherto, see thnt every dollar Is Just as valuable as every other dollar. Fellow workmen. In conclusion I would ray thnt I belies e th it gold should always be the standard, because of its superior quality, and notunly that, but because other nations nave adopted it and wo have commercial relations with them.

Tho plank In the Chicago platform denounc ing Federtl Interference with local affairs Is known to have been an inspiration of Altgeld's atonic, genius. Every Intelligent person con orant wiU recent American history knows that this plank was artfully designed asttEop for the Cerberus uf Debslstn.

'I he proposition of a leading Southern Journal that the pl.ink Is "In line with every decision tif tho supreme Court sinco the war" Is not sustained by fact. Tho decision of the Su preme Court of tho United States In tho Deb3 case, delivered in May, 1805, and concurred In by all the Judges, Is approved by tho Judgment of tho American bar and tho intelligent conscience of tho whole country. It rcttles the luw of the case. It brands In effect the Allgeld plank as the rule of tne mob and the child of nnarchy.

To thk EtiiTOit or Tiir Su.v Sir: A recont issue, of your paper contained an tnterestlne ro Cort of a "passage at arms" between Gen. Colli of the Publio Works Department and Comptroller Vltch, In which the former de fended his actions and purchases of new lamps and new poles for eleotrlo lights, Ac, on tho basis of "civic pride." By the uso of these two words he not only completely floored his opponent, but likewise tho entire organization nnd former administra tion of affairs In Now York city, to which tho Comptroller Is the only survivor, and for which fact we should be so thankful! The utter absenco of olvlo pride in the man agement of the city by Its former administra tors makes the words seem new, and they are really refreshing; and If we have even one Commissioner who professes to have some "clvlo pride." would It not be well to Increase his powers and field of action ? I am sure the taxpayers would not growl over the Increased tax rate it they had visible evi dence that the city had used the amount In honestly expended Improvements. Without Intending In any way to criticise the present reform Government, the only evldenco of real reform patent to the ordinary citizen Is the btreet Cleaning Department and the report of the City Physician as to the excellent sani tary conditions pre ailing at the present time. But Just think of the possibilities of reforms, supposing all In power of city affairs should be afflicted wllh clvlo pride t The great west side might some day have the streets lighted by electricity same a almost every village in the land of over 3,000 enhnbltnnts enjoys. Now the great west side, with a population of say 1S0.000. is surfeited with raa companies, and during the present summer was obliged to submit to having the streets opened up and another line of gas pipes laid, making three gas light pipes In every street and notono electric line. If we had had some civic pride among our leg islators, the west side would not havo been sold out to tho gas combine. And yet, there Is the beautiful Riverside Drive still lit by coal dll lamps thatstrngglo hard to combat with a single candle, if in fact they burn at all. Clvlo pride might do away with the "Cab. cab. cab" nuisance at the depots and ferry landings. No city or town in the world Is so afflicted, and I might say, no such outrage la permitted In any other city In the world as Is witnessed by every person comlnr to New York until the ' average citizens blusn from shame at the wild attempt to Imitate a lot of Comanche Indians that takes place on the arrival of every train at Forty-second street. Civic pride. If any left, would prevent turning our great thoroughfare, Broadway, Into a rail ; road yard, with Itsswltohesand switchmen and swinging lanterns of many colors. &c. At all events. It would compel the cable car companies to put on life-saving fenders on all cars- the same as all other cities and towns. ; Why is It that New Yurk city Is so backward , In some things? Most certainly Ills not due to : the people that live here they are of the most advanced and Intelligent type of citlifusl 'the ; real trouble is tho lack uf rlvlo pride among those In power, and when wo have found one or two Commissioners like Colli and Waring, let us not begrudge them a single dollar of the In creased allowacoea thry require, bnt rather. If possible. Increase their field of work, all for the general good. 1 L. II. NEW YOIIK. Oct. 29. THE TOICESTICT A3tEXD3lEyT. The Fielicrtea, Game, ssod Forest Commls. loae Heprehenalblo Coorsf, To TEf. Cditoii or Trtt SiTN-fifr: The Fish eries, Game and Forest Commission, either lc defence of Its course or qolto gratuitously, foi It U no part of Its official dnty to take In charge or champion proposed vital changes In the or ganic law of the State, has Issued a card at tempting to Justify the amendment to the Con stitution to be voted upon at the coming election, The Commissioners deem It necessary to ac quit thsmielies of any responsibility for the ex istence of this proposition, and take the trouble to relieve their predecessors of any responsibility for It. How do they know what their prede cessors did, and if they know that neither Com mission Is responsible, why do they not tell the public who Is? But the Commissioners are not frank. They say: "The proposed amendment did not orig inate with this Commission. It preliminary pas sage through the Legislature having occurred in 1809, before the present Commission nae ap pointed." Then, after clearing their predeces sore, they take the position of endorsing the proposition, as If they had had nothing to do with It between 1805 and the present time. They do not tell what they did with the Legisla ture of 1H0. I can. This amendment was, upon the day It was In troduced In the Senate In 180U, taken there by Mr. Weed, who handed It to the Senator who Introduced it, and who, at his request, presented It and caused It to be referred to the appropri ate committee. This was done In my presence, and I Immediately afterward took .Mr. Weed to ta-k for attempting to nullify the act of tho people In adopting the forestry provision now in force, lie then admitted the part played by him. attempting to defend his action. Mr. Weed was then, and now Is, a member of the present Commission, and he was a member of Its predecessors. He was one of thnt Com mission which on the UTlh of December, 1894. after the people had adopted the provision now In the Constitution, and which was to go Into effect Jan. 1, 18Uu. sought to evado It by meet ing secretly behind closed doors at n late hour of tho night, a Forestry Commissioner having been brought on a special engine from Platts burgh to make a quorum, and granting a railway company the right of way through thousands of acres uf State lands. And this took place Immediately after a vigorous fight before the Land Hoard of the State, where the grant was refused, and nt which meeting Mr. Weed was present. Was President Dnvls of tho Commis sion Ignorant or all this when heslgnrd the slnte meniof Oct. t!fi,lni.. made hv the Commission? If to, lie mutt have diligently nolded knowing facts of which tho general public have full knowledge. Tho endorsement of the present Commission should have little Influence, when It la remem bered that Its members allowed the Bracket! bill of last winter, practically turning over the Adt rondacks woods and strentns to individuals, to pass the Assembly and almost to pass the Sen ate, without taking aotlnn todefeat It, tardily adopting or making publio a resolution con demning It ufter the press and certain Individu als had attacked It and made Its defent certain. What dues the Commission offer In defence of the proposition now before the people? It does nut say a word In favor of the exchange or sale of land proposition, and only refers to tho proposition to lease, holding that leases of small parcels will dn no harm. The leasing pre-omnta tin most available places on tho most accessible lakes to people probably friendly to the Com missioners, fur a trifle, thus excluding the gen eral public, the loss of the woods by lire and waste, following In tho wake of such leases. Tho Commissioners make a plea In behalf of those already holding leases, No constitutional firovlslmi or enactment can affect existing eases, but none of these should be renewed. The Commission speaks of thendvantage to the State of securing the revenue from the ex isting leases, "as such funds are available for the fiirtliir purchase of forest lands," Is not this absurd, when It appears by the report of the Forestry Commission for 1RU4, tinnsmltted to the Legislature Jan, .'II, 181).. that the whole amount received "from leases of Adirondack campsites" during a ear was tho magnificent sum uf $1.00,1 ? Amino leases were thereafter made, as the prohibition against leasing went Into effect Jan, 1, lhflj. 'I he Commissioners must have assumed that tho people know noth ing uf public affairs lu allow of such statements bring uinile. Their best duty 111 lie In the direction of car ing fur the forests as they llnil them, leaving the making of laws to those charged with that duty. The people should stamp the Interference wltn disapproval by Voting against a proposition to amend the Constitution which means a destruc tion of the forests. Protection to the forests means not only the enjoyment of the woods themselves by the pro- file or the State, hut I also neceisary for the ex Hence or our waterrourses audourcanals, Tho whole. ale destruction which has vuue nu for years has already diminished the water In our rivers and lakes to an alarming extent, aud has caused the dangerous freshets from which we have suffered, The pruple last year voted the expenditure of nine ullllous of dollars for the Improvement of the canajs, and this eipsndl- ture will be wasted If the great reservoir In the woods are destroyed by the cutting of the tlm tier and the sale and leasing of our publio wild lands. DAVID McCl.UIlE. Ntw Yoiik, Oct. SO. THE lOSOltAXCIl or THE hible. The Keaaone mr II a They Appear to a Brooklyn Fattier. To the EntTonoy Tim Su.t Sir: Your edi torial last Sunday on the widespread ignorance of the Bible among young as well ns old folk) In this country was rend by me with exceeding Interest. I havo boon hero about fourteen years, am married here, and havo three sons, two of whom have attended Sunday school since they were 0 years of age. The oldest Is now 12 years, and although bright and Intelligent nnd clover In tho dally school, has got lint llttln general knowledgo of tho Bible; and this In spite of tho fact that I make him study his weekly lesson until he knows It to perfection. It has, however, for veara boon perfectly plain to mo why his knowledgo In thts rospect Is so limited. In my opinion. It Is hot tho fnult nt the boy, but the fault of tho method of Instruction, and that. In turn. Is attributable to the want of propor books from which to stud)-. 1 ho Bible In Its unabridged form Is too vo luminous for any child to study, and the lan guage, being hard to comprehend nnd learn, makes It uninteresting and tedious work for tho young mind to wade through, not to mention that tho Old Testament Is In place unfit for children lo read on account of Its vulgarity. Theso rensons are undoubtedly the cause uf the publication of pamphlets which treat Biblical subjects In amoillflcd form. One of my several objections to theso pamphlets Is thnt they are Issued without nny regard whatsoever fur the chronological course of events, the aubjecta treated each quarter or half year following each other In an Indiscriminate manner, thu entire ly confusing the pupil In a general and comore henslvo knowledgo of tho Bible. If the Illblo was taught systematical!)-, as It Is taught In my native country, no child would have any oxcuse for not knowing It to perfection when be was 14 years of ace. In my opinion, what I needed Is a comprehen sive synopsis of the Bible, In bouk form, written In modern language. In tho form of n tale, ech event following In chronological order, nnd leavlngout all but the most Importnntnnmes of persons and places. The book ehould uot cover more thnn from -00 to 800 pages. Another, but much smaller book, should contain tho most Important golden texts, the Ten Command menta. the Lord's Prayer. Aic. These two book the pupil would have time to study, nnd as he would find It Interesting reading, would like It and be able to learn It. The pamphlets by w hlch tho Bible Is taught now are uninteresting, and tho frequent changes of the subject, regardless of the chronological order of events, bewlldirsa child, and would onnfuse any grown person un less he knew the Bible beforehand.

Cremnttnn In Japaa, ToTnaEorronoirTnEScs-Slr.- Under the heading of " Many llodles Crtroated," In to-day's mjk, jou say that the cremations In the United States exceed thoso of any other country, and that Kew York heads the lilt of cities. It seems to me that you should not pass by the ex istence and extent of the nrsotlce of cremation In Jap an. In Chamberlain's "Things Japanese " we are told that "cremation followed lluddhlsm Into Japan about A. D. 700:" that "on the lbth of July, tti73. cremation was totally prohibited by the Japanese Government," and that, "basing dltcostrsd that, far from being un-Curopean, oreuiatlon wat the goal of European reformers In such matters, tney rescinded their pro hibition twenty-tsvo montht later." There aro Ave cremation grounds In Toklo atone. "The usual charges for cremation according to the old native atyto are: First class. 97. tecond class, f 2.&0: third class. tl.SO." The charces for cremation according to the Improved European methods are the same for Aril olaat at the old method, and about two dollars more for the accon t and third classes. Since 1474 Intramural Interment has been prohibited In Japan, and is now permitted in special cases only when the body hat been cremated before burial. In view of these facts It would be of Interest to know what tn annual number of cremations Is lu the "Land of the Ittalnc&un." M. D. IloTltsciilLD. Sew Yoag, Oct. 25.

Tho one exception wat a foreigner, the professor of French, who always pro- nounced the words properly. Later, when I entered a more advanced Institution of learning lu Sow York, It was a repetition of w hat I heard at school. i Again, pay attention to our orators and public speakers, and how many will you hear pronounce 't correctly the disputed words ? I am sure that It you will pay strict attention to the conversation not only Of the hoi polio!, but alto of people who are lit- ' erary and highly educated, j-nu will tee thnt it It the exception lo hear the wordt properly pronounced. ; What I cannot understand Is, why people south of Washington, loth Ignorant and enlightened, almost i Invariably give the true u sound In Its proper place. i Can you offer on explanation of It? Borro, Oct. 23. Fact, E. Stxvexiox. Unquestionably, the mispronunciation of which )OU speak Is very frequent In Now York . and among educated people, so called, who are , careless In their speech; but none of them, wo , suppose, would undertake to define It as cor rect. What you say as to tho South Is generally true, but It Is truo also of every speaker of Eng. ; llsh who Is entitled to consideration as a. man of polished education. i i Cubit Will He Free t i To Tne Ebitok or Thk Sii.v Sir: Allow me i to thank you In behalf of tho people of free Cuba for your Impartiality in the treatment of the Cuban question, making The Sun tho fore I most Journal of this metropolis In all matters 1 concerning tho terrible struggle of Cuba.

The first net was a scries of dialogues; tho Interest of tho second quickened with tho new of the wife's recovery, and In tho third thero wero really dramatic mnntonts when the restored first wlfo upbraided her husband forlhls coldness to her, nnd, overjoyed at the affection of her daughter, called oti him to wltneh It, But oven these sconos wero dramatic lu spite of tho au thor's preseutatlon of them. Their interest would hava been groatly lucrcasod If the plnn of their arrangement had been moro expert. They had eomo genuine emotion back of them and. skilfully handled, would havo proved encroislng through out. But Ilerr I.ludau, as "The First One" re veals him. Is not a practised dramatist. If he had put forward a play that was not made up of theatric element he might hat o been pardoned. But hi view of the theme was essentially uf tho stage. Max Blra was properly distressed as the tins band for whom nobody In the audience had nny sympathy. Adele Hartwig wa an alternately cheerful and weeping second wife. Laura Detchy brought back Into hor disarranged household considerable force, but little real tenderness. Arthur Eggellng contributed to a brief part some genuinely natural qualities. Tho comody of the piny was supplied chiefly by tho usual Amcrlian who comes back to (iermany and does everything at break-neck epeed. He proposed to his sweetheart on a telegraph blank nnd wanted to keep his cnb waiting at tho door whllo ho ROt her answer. This Is tho only humorous quality that a Herman drnmnllst can ever get out of an American character. A new specialty was put Into " Tho Oeezer" at Weber & Flolds'u Broadway last night, and was Introduced In the second act of tho burlesque for tho entertainment of J.l Hung Chano. It wns announced to that svorthy a a dance by tho Embarrassing Sisters, and then several attend ants brought on a big red ecieen. The front of tbls was ralsod iu a moment, dis closing five pairs of feet and ankles. Their owners then walked to the footlights, snt down and sang a stanza, while the audience looked them over. They were women of the chorus, all wore fluffy yellow drctsos, yellow curls straggled to their shoulders, and their upturned shoes wereof tho wldo-iolcd sort svorn by negro minstrels. All their poses were In burlesque of studied attitude and they counterfeited a languishing air comically. When thev stood up to sing they lifted their dresses to show underskirts stamped In letters three Indie's high "mado In fjermany," and again tho poses were take-off on attempted naughtiness. Ono of tho five was so ac tlvo In her dance that her skirt com menced to slip from It rnstenlng, but she caught it up. nnd thu stage manager, himself plajing a character in "The Ueen-r," succetded at the nnd of a mluuto of striving lu refustenlug the gitrraent. The "elater" who performed alone, ss ho bur lesqued Lon of the Barrieont. wi dre-sed In a hlenly rolored circus rider's rig. and appeared after her horse wa led In. lie ssa u heavy dray horse. Rnyly decorated with colored paper, and from tho moment he was permitted to slup stalking he stood stock still until he svaa almost forced off the stage. Ill rider svas se cured from falls by u big cable tied about her Isvaibt and carried up into the tiles. Thus equipped It was with difficulty that she stood on the animal' buck long I enough to bosv, and then her Inning ended. As Mie disappeared there were loud demands for more of thN sort uf hurla-que. but she ssaa slow in repondlnc. for tho reason that her cable had become twlttod In thesccnery, butshe succeeded nt last, and finally stood uu tho eud of the horse's tall for a moment. Then one uf the characters uf "The lieezer" trotted lu holding u bicyclo handle bar In his hand and sounding Its gnng. That meant that the Embarrassing sis ter, had done, nnd that the burlesque was again under wa). The new addition was funny enuugu to be worthy of its place, William A. Brady said yesterday: "The the i ntrlcal business Improved as noon as the elec- tlon of McKlnley becamo certain. 1 know this I for a fact, because 1 have six companies travel I ling In different parts of the country.
