Sine there la to be po change from the gold standard, the thing to do la to restore protection, boom a business re vival and make our European compe titors look sick. For President, William McKlnley. When we look fairly and dispassion ately at the work of the St. Louis con ventton, we perceive that once more have the people found the right candi date. They have chosen, not political subtlety, as represented In Quay; not unemphasnzed breadth of legislative ex perience, as typlfled In Allison; not mere amiability, as personified by Mor ton, nor Alpine masslveness of domi nating will-power, aa signalized by Reed, but a blending of these separate traits Into a personality strong without offence, amiable without Indecision, and In Its personal characteristics typical of the best Americanism. William McKlnley's biography Is a vindication of American Institutions. Born In modest circumstances, he worked and studied until the call of war resounded: then at IS he donned the blue, shouldered the musket and marched to the front. He, had no "pull" to smooth the path of his advance ment. The conclusion of the war found him only a major; but from private to major In four years, without prior knowledge of military tactics, Is a step that Would be possible, 'to merit unas sisted, In America alone. , The great, conflict ended, the soldier became the law-abiding arid ' ambitious civilian. Within two years after' the climax at Appomattox Major McKlnley had com pleted a course In law and been ad mitted to the bar. In two more years we find him elected district, or as the office is known in Ohio, prosecuting at torney; and the beginning thus made in politics has been followed up through congress and the gubernatorial chair of his native state until It will soon lead to what in the judgment of many able men Is the supremest of earthly honors, the American chief magistracy. Of the man himself it is almost Im possible to speak without falling Into the language of eulogy. Think what you may of his beliefs, there Is no man living who can fall to admire the mod est, dignified yet determined manner In which he has clung to them, none the less through hours of adversity than In the sunlight of public favor. Six years ago, It looked as if "McKinley Ism," as the protective system was called, had received Its death blow. The presidential election which followed, with Its reinforcing surge of Democratic tidal-wave majorities, appeared to have wept the doctrine for which McKlnley had so earnestly fought Into the utter most depths of public repudiation. Life long protectionists became discouraged. We can all recall how first one and then another of the Republican leaden wav tred In their allegiance and finally fell to deprecating the McKlnley idea. There was Reed, who said that the Country would never see the readoptlon of a high tariff; there was Senator John Sherman and there were hosts of lesser lights who misread the signs of those discouraging times and joined more or less openly with Democrats In disavow ing the author of tho McKlnley tariff. In view of the recent Mugwump Insinu ation that William McKlnley Is not a firm man, with the power to stick to a given course of action, It Is Interesting to recall that almost the only Republi can . who, through all the dlscourag ments of these unsettling times, never once wavered, never once retracted, never once seemed to lose confidence in the ultimata Justice of publlo opinion; indeed, tha man who, In the very dark ait hour, took deliberate occasion to re affirm his economic faith and entered nottce of appeal from a publlo deceived to a publlo disillusionised and sober, was none other than this so-called va cillating man, thla-alleged straddler, William McKlnley. . , McKlnley has been In publlo life for two decades and has emerged without a spot on his private character. He en tered It poor, and he lives today in a smalt house for which he pays a mod est rental. Aa chairman of the ways and means committee of the Fifty first congress he could either have sold his Influence to vast moneyed Interests which came before him In search of tariff concessions, or be could have taken as pay for shady work the Inside "tips" on speculation which make many publlo officials rich. He did neither tho ono nor the other, but left congress almost as poor In purse as whan he first entered It. In Washington, where the race for social prestige Is even moro keen and unscrupulous than Is the contsst for political ad vancement, William McKlnley resisted all temptations, lived within his salary and evinced In his home life a manli ness and a devotion as greatly to his credit as was his fortitude In the faco of political defeat. From whatever standpoint this man's, character is viewed, it presents Itself In pleasing colors and points, neither to the arrogance of self-conscious great ness, nor to the theatric poses of dema goglsm, but to frank, manly, self-contained Americanism, with Its Ideals grounded In cleanliness and righteous ness and its faith fixed on high. We predict that before this campaign is over, William McKlnley will be the most popular and respected presidential candidate the country ever had; while as for his election, we suspect that that will almost take care of Itself. Wnilam McKlnley's nomination will nut be appreciated In Europe, but, then, It is quite Impossible to please every body. For Vice-President, Oarret A. Hobart. The nomination of Hon. Oarret t A. Hobart, .of New Jersey, for the vice presidency has been foreshadowed for the past few days. It places upon tbe ticket a man who Is recognised in his own state as one of Its foremost citi zens; a Republican whose service to the party Is co-extensive with his pub lice career, and the representative or a section which by Its recent repudia tion of Democratic misrule has fairly entitled Itself to substantial recogni tion. Mr. Hobart and Major McKlnley are both young and vigorous men, Just in the prime of mature manhood. They are Intimate personal friends. Be tween them there will be none of the friction which has characterized the re lations of the present executive and his substitute. In addition to this, the nomination of Mr. Hobart pays wel come honor to the stalwart element which is gradually breaking down the tolldlty of the South, and will be the signal' for a general stiffening of the lines of Republican battle In the terri tory once deemed hopelessly Demo cratic' In accordance with Its custom, the Chicago Times-Herald gave the best reports of the St. Louis convention that were printed anywhere. Very close to that paper in accuracy and complete ness of detail is the Philadelphia Press. The Platform. While the St. Louis platform is one of the longest party deliverances ever made In this country. Its length Is war ranted by the important subjects which It considers. The opening plank de serves to be committed to memory, for it alone would justify McKlnley's elec tlon. " We repeat It herewith: ' For 'the first time since the civil war the American people have now witnessed the calamitous consequences of full And unrestricted Democratic control of the government. It bas bean a record of un paralleled incapacity, dishonor and disas ter. In the administrative management It has ruthlesBly sacrificed Indispensable rev tiiue, eked out ordinary current run ning expenses with borrowed money, piled up the public debt 1262,000,000 in time of peace, forced an adverse balance of trade, kept a perpetual menace hanging over the redemption fund, pawned American credit to alien syndicates, and reversed all the measures and results of successful Republican rule. In the broad effect of Jts policy It has precipitated panic, blighted Industry and trade with prolonged depres sion, closed factories, .reduced work and wages, halted enterprise, and crippled American production while stimulating foreign production for an American mar ket. Every consideration of public safety and Individual Interest demands that the government shall be rescued from the hands of those who have shown themselves In capable of conducting It without disaster at home and dishonor abroad, and shall be restored to the party which for thirty years administered It with unequalled suc cess and prosperity. Following a strong re-afflrmatton of the protective policy, which Is Justly called "the bulwark of American Indus trial Independence and the foundation of American development and prosper ity,' comes an emphatic endorsement of reciprocity, the "golden rule of com merce" and an equaly earnest plea for the restoration of our merchant marine. The financial plank Is perhaps needless ly declamatory In Its Introduction and peroration; but the following sentence near Its middle will command wide spread approval: "We are opposed to the free coinage of silver, except by In ternational agreement with the leading commercial nations of the world, WHICH WE PLEDGE OURSELVES TO PROMOTE, and until such agree ment can be obtained, the existing gold standard must be preserved." The foreign plank is general In Its nature, outlining a policy in regard to all current foreign questions. It con tains a declaration for the protection of American cltlsens abroad; reaffirms the position of the party In favor of the Monroe doctrine; endorses the admin istration of, President Harrison on the attitude of. this country toward Hawaii; demands protection for American mis sionaries In Armenia; expresses sym pathy for the Cubans In their war for Independence and takes a position in favor of awarding to them belligerent rights. In the remaining planks civil service reform Is approved and the ex tension of the principle wherever prac ticable. The use of publlo money for sectarian purposes and the union of church and state are opposed. A dec laration Is made In favor of arbitration between employes and employers but no specific legislation is demanded. A declaration Is made In favor of liberal pensions and the present administra tion Is denounced for dropping from the rolls without examination deserving soldiers. Finally the building of the Meat ague canal by the United States government is favored. Upon the whole the document Is en accurate and eloquent reflex of party sentiment, which means that it Is wise, courageous, hopeful and aggressive. Admirers of stalwart and robust Re publicanism a re. glad to see that Senator-elect Joseph Benson Foroker cf Ohli was one of the most appUudcd starj In the Et. Louis performance. Senator Foraker has been so fiercely vilified and without warrant that tha reaction In his favor Is no more than justice. In addition to nominating the candi date (which he virtually did by his suc cessful support of McKlnley In Illinois) Editor Kohlsaat of Chicago also wrote the gold plank of the St. Louis plat form. No wonder he feels well these days. There Is a good reason why Plutt did not want Morton for vice-president. Such a move would elevate to the gov ernorship of New York an antl-Plattlte; and a governor In hand la worth a regi ment of vice-presidents In the bush. The London papers speak In terms of praise of the St. Louis gold plank, but we don't mind telling them that that plunk's popularity among the American people Is not at all due to the fact that It seems to be popular abroad. .The Philadelphia. Stockholder calls upon the United States to adopt the gold standard. Bless Us soul, that was done years ago. - The honors of tho convention seem to have been pretty well monopolized by Ohio. When will It be Pennsyl vanla's turn? Ex -Governor Flower says the Demo crats will carry New York next fall by 100,000 plurality. Is Mr. Flower joking? ' Mr. Cleveland's ambition to secure the privilege of privacy In the ranks stands In a fair way to be realized. tme1iIaTrWe-d7. From the Chicago Evening Post. A rather fruitless discussion has been In progress In the eastern press as to wheth er the silver mpvement is essentially a craze similar to the greenback delusion. A number of parallelisms have been point ed out, and also several striking differ ences. Perhaps tbe chief source of tho strength of the silver cause is found in the popular lnabllty to distinguish be tween the American programme and that of the scientific blmutaliuts of the world. Tho greenback cause nad no support among economists, wntle bimetallism counts among its advocates and adher ents many of the leading teachers and writers on financial and economic sub jects. There 1s little In common between sclentitlc bimetallism und the free-silver movement In America, but the argu ments and facts marshaled by economists against the single gold standard are twist ed and misapplied by the silverltes in such u way as to mislead thousands Into be lieving that scientllle authority sanctions the attempt to force the United States to establish bimetallism without the concur, rence of other nations. The first step, then, of the opponents of free silver should 'be to emphasize and enforce the fundamental distinction between bimet allism as taught by economists and silver as preached by American free coinage agi tators. II "II II But would th',8 tako all life Out of the silver movement? .Candor compels all se rious students' to admit that free silver is far from bfing merely a craze and unac countable delusion, and that there Is a substantial, real grievance at the foun dation of the agitation. Indeed, self-interest in the lareo as well as narrow sense should cause the most earnest gold cham pions to protest against the fashion of ascribing dishonest motives to tha silver sections. There Is altogether too much shallow, flippant and silly talk of this kind. The masses that itre clamoring for silver are not deliberate or conscious re. pudlationlsta, and are as honest and sin cere as the people of the eastern states. When they say that sliver Is "honest money" they mean and believe it, and their error Is a purely Intellectual one. Now, as the New York Journal of Commerce well says, apart from justice, there is a double disadvantage in this reckless de nunciation of millions of farmers and la. borers, for "It places the people of the country In a falso light abroad, and its renders doubly difficult the task of ps tablishlng a stable system of currency and banking by any exercise of statesman ship at home." The gold-standard cause may well pray to be saved from its thought less and fanatical friends, who obstruct progress by exciting resentment and pre judice. ii ii i: There must be a real grievance, a legiti mate want, behind this great movement. Those who are convinc-Ml that free silver Is no remedy at ell must, after satisfying themselves as to the true nature of the trouble producing the agitation, discover and point out the real remedy. Honest but mistaken people may be made to see their error If they are fairly and reason tlaly dealt with. It is, therefore, partic ularly gratifying to observe that In the most conservative eastern financial cir cles a disposition Is shown to recognize the legitimate wants of the masses of the west and south and to study the ways and means of meeting them. Thus Henry Clews, the eminent New York banker and financier, Says with reference to the sit uation is the west and south: "More money Is doubtless needed for facilitating cash transactions in those sections, but that want can be easily satisfied through such modifications of our banking legis lation as will cause the note Issues to re spond readily to every real need for cur rency." The penalty for the Indifference, ignorance or cowardice of legislators and business men who frowned upon every proposal aiming at comprehensive bank ing legislation is the renewed Activity of the free sliver men. The sooner they real ize that the alternative to radical cur. rency and banking reform Is the danger of a silver triumrh and the reduction of the country to a sliver basis, the better it will be for the Industries and political progress of the country. Abuse and ridicule of those who have demanded "more money" have only served to exasperate the suffer, tng farmers and to generato the belief that It would be useless for them to expect relief or sympathy from tbe eastern cap italists and business men. Tbey raised the silver banner because no other plan was proposed of submitted to them, tl II ll In addition to the perfectly rational and legitimate demand for more money there Is, as Mr. Clews further admits, a demand for better and greater credit ' facilities. "It Is well worth considering," says Mr. Clews, "whether arrangements cannot be devised for satisfying these wants." He regards it as highly unfortunate that relief of this character has not . been offered earlier, for, had that been done, silver might not have become the burning ques. tlon, the grave menace that It Is today. The New York Journal of Commerce holds views very similar to those of Mr. Clews. In Its opinion the farmer want a re source ol credit ( which they may avail themselves when they have no means of getting money, and tbe most effective cure for the sliver delusion will be found In measures providing this asurce of credit. Farmers lack Working capital and are compelled to pay Interest at the rate of IS to a per cent. Is It strange that they should Jump at the conclusion that cheap, er BUMf would mean salvation to thorn? Manufacturers and merchants, with ample capital, Und It necessary to borrow very largely, and the banks supply their wauls through loans and discounts. Without thecc they would be as badly pinched as the farmers, and t.lo lessons of l&OT and ether panics sufficiently Indicate the im portance of credit even In the largest In-Jit-trial centers. The Journal of Com merce therefore aks American financiers to form banks and associations modeled upon the Scottish and continental Eu ropean institutions that are extending cash creJits to farmers. II II II While it IS true that there is nothing Im practicable about this sug&estlon, and tnat institutions of th kind proposed would I alike benvlicial to the borrowers and rea sonably profitable to landers, It Is doubt ful whether the remedy would be very et. fectlvo. Perhaps by a system of co-operative and mutual banks the farmers could help themselves better than they could be helped by any other scheme, liut It Is widely felt that nothing but radical and comprehensive banking reform by legis lation can counteract the silver agitation and remove th menace to business In. volved In tho prorpeel of a change of standards. A number of Democratic and Independent papers of undoubted sound money convictions have revived the dis cussion of tbe abolition of tno 10 per cent, tax on state banks, and In this direction relief may have to be sought after all. Denunciation, abuse, ridicule, will not kill the sliver movement. There are legitimate wants back of It, and they must b satis fied. TOLD BY THE STARS. Daily Horoscope Drawn by Ajacchus, The Tribune Astrologer. Astrolabe cast: 12.01 a. m for Friday, June 19, ISiiti. M & ' Now that McKlnley has been nominated and w won the ball game with Syracuse yesterday, there Is no reason why the face of a child born on this day should not beam like a full moon. The first campaign poet who sings on this day Will pause at the name of McKlnley, For the words that will rhyme In the "vocab," they say, Are scattered quite thinly quit thinly. New Jersey can now no longer be con sidered out of the United States. Can It be possible that Mayor Bailey fur ntshed the razor that was pulled by the council last night on the police appoint ments? As soon as Mayor Bailey patronage has been distributed, there seems no rea son why the country should not settle Down to business again. Silver will still be taken on subscrip tion at The Trlbuno office. Ajacchus' Advice. Citizens with public enterprises to pro mote will do well to keep out of range of the select council.
