' President Cleveland hasl
no chronic disease and his health j
is perfectly good, Ac.?Dominion.
;Well unless we mistake the
signs of the times Clevelandism
is the worst disease that ever be
came epidemic it America.
The New York World has just
^discovered that a great friend of
the trusts and monopolies of the
country is right in the midst of
Mr. Cleveland's cabinet. Hereto
fort it has claimed they were all
.the Republican party.
'he Ohio campaign was open
:iW .
?? .w vnv.' i/aJkau^.' was a
part of the program and the
demonstration was one of the
greatest in the political history |
ot the Buckeye State.
It is our opinion the political
brakes should be attached to the
editorial dreamer of West Union
Record. In justice to his party
and his patrons he ought to be
run off on the switch until his
embryonic political ideas have
taken on the habiliments of
rationality. Get on the switch,
Silos
The New York World speak
ing of the movement to give free
bread to the hungry laborers in
the city, says'in its Saturday
edition "after 9,000 had been fed
the door was reluctantly shut in
the faces of 500 hungry poor."
Uuder Republican administra
tions the World never had to con
tribute to a free bread fund.
"The train stopped, the engi
neer shot, the car blown open
with dynamite, while men armed
with Winchesters stand guard?
passengers and trainmen covered
with rifles while the work of
plunder goes on?the robbers
escape, but posses after them.''
Such are the sensational head -
lines in the Wednesday's dailies,
-describing the daring robbery
that took place on Tuesday near
Kcndallville, Ind. The Lake
-Shore express was held up and
.something like from fifty to two
hundred thousand dollars was
taken by 10 armed robbers. It
was more daring than the James
brother's escapades in other
years
After the New York World
used all its powers to induce Mr.
Cleveland's Attorney General to
attack the large trusts and cor
porations. and that gentleman
failed to respond, it concludes
that he is a tool in the hands of
these same monopolists. Last
week it slashed at the Secretary
in a vigorous manner as the fol
lowing extract will show.
"Some people are saying that
Mr. Olney is fully justifying the
confidence of the monopoly cor
porations which backed him for
? the Attorney-Generalship. What
was it that put an enemy of the
anti-trust law into snch a posi
tion ?"
Readers of the daily papers
daring the last few weeks have
doubtless been struck with the
unusually large number of crimes
and casualties, involving the
loss of human life, that have
taken place. The phenomenon
is not a new one; it has been fre
quently noticed in other years,
and in fact has led many people
to suggest that there may be
some mysterious law of periodici
ty of crimes, if not for casual
ties. It is indeed very strange
that the floods, storms, railway
disasters and other great casual
ties seem to come in a bunch.
When the Democratic party
redeems its pledges and emanci
pates the people from the rule of
the gold sharks, and cuts the
tariff down to a revenue basis
and gives us back our old sys
tem of State banks our farmers
will get ahead and have money
to lend, as they had in the days
before the war.?Atlanta Consti
tution.
leading Democratic paper of the
South calls for just a few re
marks Does not Mr. Cleveland's
late message to Congress show
that he, the President, is one of
the hated gold sharks ? Where
will the Democrats cut down the
tariff when the amount of revenue
collected under the present tariff
is hardly enough to pay our
annual expenditures for the sup
port of the government ?
We can report 110 change in
the situation at Washington. The
House having sent the Silver Re
peal bill to the Senate, has com
menced work through the Ways
and Means Committee on the
proposed tariff bill. They are
now calling the business men
and manufacturers before them
in order to hear what they pro
pose in way of tariff reform. All
the evidence of any importance
30 far has been disastrous to
Democratic doctrine. In the
Senate no one can tell when a !
'?te will be reached. There are
1 sufficient number of speeches
inuounced to consume the time
actual filibustering operations or
let the voting begin. It wili rest
largely with the Southern op.
ponents of the bill to decide
whether the vote shall be post
poned or taken. Some Senators
think a vote will be reached bv
the first of October.
Senator Faulkner made a
speech in the Senate last week
that gave him considerable
prominence. -Mr. Faulkner's
amendment provides a declara
tion by law that the government
will exert its influence to place
silver and gold on a Darity. It
also provides for the additional
coinage of silver dollars at the
present ratio and at a/rate of
$3,000,000 a month until the ag
gregate of not less than $800,000*?
000 is reached. Mr. Faulkner
made a bold and fearless speech
in support of his proposition.
The members of the chamber
under the influence of national
banks and Wall street shrugged
their shoulders, but the majority
of the Senate seem to think that
the amendment is the keynote to
the solution of the problem."
Mr. Faulkner's scheme "is at
best a straddle and is designed
to soothe the western silver men.
It ultimately means a cheaper
dollar. Our present stock of
silver dollars amounts to $538,
000,000. Under Mr. Faulkner's
plan we would have to coin
$262,000,000 more. We do not
believe the scheme will co
through.

much of the distress which'"fol- [

ed, but it was too late for'.ttie
ipse dixit of a Democratic presi
dent to stem the torrent, and the
revenues have steadily fallen
away, until the bonds must.be
sold to meet the expenses of the
government. The proposal
which is said to emanate from
the treasury, to coin the silver
bullion and make use of the seig
norage, is a very dangerous one,
and should not be entertained
for a moment.
If the mere purchase of the
bullion has created distrust, as
the administration maintains
most assuredly this distrust will
be increased by coining the sil
ver and?putting the American dol
lars on the market. The time
may come when this can be done
with safety, but not now. when
the sound money minority of the
Democratic party is straining
every nerve, with the aid of Re
publicans, to rescue the country
from the silver entanglement
which has proved to be such a
terrible specter to the adminis
tration. It is safe to sell bonds,
and several geod purposes can
be accomplished by doing so
but it is extremely dangerous to
tamper with silver while the peo
ple are pervaded with the fears
of the administration.?Baltimore
