Wo should Imagine that these are
melancholy days for one Grover Cleve
land. As Others See It.
Pomp of our esteemed Demooratlccon
toniporarles nre saving us the trouble
of reviewing1 the Chicago platform.
They nre doing this themselves In a
manner which leaves nothing Jo be
addod. For instance, according to the
Philadelphia Times, "there Is not u sin
gle paragraph In the platform enunciat
ing n distinct principle or policy of gov
ernment that gives liny recognition to
national honor or Integrity of Ameri
can citizenship. Repudiation runs
through every paragraph relating to
money, and anarchy is blended with the
dregs of the old Btates' rights Idea In
the declaration that the greatest Re
public of the earth shall be powerless
to maintain law and order within its
dominion."
Again: "Ueglnnlng with deliberate
falsehood and gravitating to unmis
takable repudiation by the demand that
public and private obligations Bhall be
paid In money of one-half the value on
which the contracts were based, what
assurance would the country or the
world have that, with the success of re
pudiation to the extent of one-half the
value of obligations, the repudiationists
would there end the work of fraud?
If the legal or moral right to repudiate
to per cent, of an obligation can be sus
tained, the right to repudiate three
fourths or the whole of any obligation
would be equally logical, and there Is
not a feature of the financial deliver
ance of the Chicago platform on the
question of finance that Is not open, un
disguised repudiation, with falsehood
summoned to furnish the only excuses
which can be offered for It."
Finally: "The Chicago plaform Is
without a redeeming feature to com
mend It to patriotic citizens of any po
litical faith. It is a proclamation of
organized repudiation, agrarianism and
anarchy, and It must summon every In
telligent and patriotic citizen, regard
less of political affiliations, to most
heroic battle against the triumph of
a madnes sthat is as deadly In its aim
as was the madness of secession In 1860,
and without even the poor excuse that
Recession had for its suicide."
It would be a waste of energy to try
to augment this expert comment.
It should be understood that David B.
Hill always reserves the right to change
his opinions to fit the shifting currents
of the time.
Although numerous other nations
have notified France of their1 accept,
ance of the Invitation to participate In
the Paris exposition of 1900, no such,
acknowledgement has been received In
France from th United Btates. The
delay is natural but unfortunate,
France bad an excellent representa
tion three years, ago at Chicago. , We
cannot do less than that at Parl3 and
we ought to do much more.
It looks as if the Democrats had de
cided to steal all of the Populists'
thunder, with never a quotation mark.
"The money of the I'nited States,
and every kind or form of it, whether
of pnper, silver or gold, must bo as
good as the best in the world. It must
uol only be current at its full face
value at home, but it must be counted
at par in auy and every commercial
renter of tho globe. The dollur paid
to the farmer, the wage-earuer and
the pensioner must continue forever
equal in purchasing and debt-paying
power to the dollar paid to any gov
rrninent creditor."--McKililey in His
Speech of Acceptance.
Sir. Hobart means gold and says gold.
Mr. Hobart Is evidently not enamored
of expediency.
Dreg Level.
It is only natural that In a body of
imn wrought up to a nervous tension
by the frantie advocacy of a single idea
the' liability of a stampede should be
great. This explains the liryun boom
and vividly shows how superficial and
unstable the present silver movement
Is.
Ready In debate, agile In repartee,
lluent In the use of oratorical tricks
and poses, and possessed moreover of
on uncommon amount of personal mag
netism, the Nebraska ex-congressman,
in his reply to Senator Hill, rose easily
to tho one opportunity of the Chicago
convention and by that short speech,
with its well-gauged appeal to the sym
pathies and prejudices of the free silver
multitude, pushed himself forward to
tho very front of the race for the presi
dential nomination.
And it lr In this elastic spirit of fickle
ness that the Democratic party, setting
aside the warning of is ablest leaders
and airily dismissing the almost unani
mous protest of the business element
of the country, proposes to rush for
ward to a precipitate revolution of our
entire monetary system and play with
the finances and the commercial credit
of the country as a child would play
with a newly found toy. Truly, Ameri
can politics has reached dreg-level.
"Whatever Is done at Chicago," cx
Oovernor Pattisan Informs a Philadel
phia Press Interviewer, "will be accep
table to me." And this Is the lamb that
some once thought a Hon!
Perversions of Justice.
The last session of the Massachusetts
legislature authorized the appointment
of a commission of three to consider the
subject of simplifying criminal plead
ings with a view to preventing the grow
ing scandal of retrials on petty tech
nicalities that do not Involve the merits
of the ease. That commission la now at
work. A similar step. It Is announced
by the New York Evening Post, will
probably be taken at Albany next win
ter. It deserves to be duplicated In
rnnsylvania.where the evil In question
Is quite as prominent as In any other
state or country.
The magnitude of the evil is well illus
trated In two cases cited recently by
W. C. Glenn before the Georgia Bar as
sociation and recalled by the New York
journal above referred to. In one In
stance a man was charged with em
bezzling a letter, and his guilt was made
clear, but he was discharged because
of a technical error in the Indictment,
the direction on the letter not having
been given correctly. In the other a
man was charged with stealing a $100
bill from another man's pocket, and hl3
guilt was also made plain, but he was
discharged because his lawyer was able,
by the aid of a magnifying glass, to
show that the date upon the bill was
not given correctly In the Indictment.
In almost every other department of
human activity progress Is steady and
rapid. In the department of human
justice things are practically at a stand
still; processes are mossy with old age
and the live conditions of today are
confronted at every turn by the inade
quate and obsolete rules and traditions
of from two ro ten centuries ago. The
result Is that the people have learned
to distrust the courts and to shun them.
Legal forms that produce such a feel
ing require renovation. The courts need
to be brought up to date.
The New York Evening Post Is tickled
almost to death over Hobart. It will
yet get Into the McKlnley main tent
via the Hobart back door.
Upholding Sabbath Protection.
An interesting decision has been
handed down by Justice Harlun for the
United States Supreme court. From the
earliest times the statute books of
Georgia have contained a law prohibit
ing worldly labor on Sunday. When
railroads came a supplementary act
was passed prohibiting the running of
freight trains on Sunday. This act
was obeyed until congress passed the
Interstate commerce law, and then the
railroads raised the point that the lat
ter nullified the state act. The case
went Anally to the Supreme court and
there a majority has upheld the consti
tutionality of the state act, although
Chief Justice Fuller and Justice White
dissented.
The opinion of the majority as pre
pared by Justice Harlan holds that the
Georgia Sunday law is a legitimate
exercise of the police powers belonging
to each state. Under that power the
court holds that the legislature may
provide for the health, the morals and
the (utieraJ welfare of the people, and If
It 19 vwi'Ml necessary to their peace,
comfort and bapvlne, to nay nothing
of the puHlo health and tho. public
morals, that one day In each week
be set apart by law as a day when busi
ness of all kinds shall cease within the
borders of the state, a law to that ef
fect Is constitutional and valid, not
withstanding that it temporarily sus
pends commerce between the states. It
Is held to be of the same nature as
quarantine and inspection laws, which
have always been held valid, though
they Interfere with and check com
merce to some extent.
The effect of thl9 finding can hardly
fail to be stimulating to the cause of
Sabbath protection, which has often
had to encounter arguments calling in
question the constitutionality of laws
that Fitfe-guurdi tho weekly day of
worship and rest.
Senator Chandler has begun to ad
dress open letters to Chairman Hanna
urging him not to make the disastrous
mistake of falling to recognize and co
operate with Thomas C. Piatt. It is
suspected, though, that this use of the
name Piatt is partly due to the New
Hampshire senator's own shrinking
modesty, and that wherever Piatt's
name occurs we would be Justified in
reading "Chandler."
The best argument against the ex
periment of free and unlimited coin
age by the United States alone Is the
character of the men who most conspic
uously and vociferously advocate it.
Any cause which attracts the cham
pionship of such men as Tilinan, Alt
t?eld, Waite, Pennoyer and Peffer Is
brund to excite suspicion.
Whatever misgivings blmetalllst Re
publicans may have had over the plat
form adopted recently at St.
Louts, the events of the cur
rent week In Chicago have ef
fectually removed them. When an
archy vaults Into the saddle upon de
struction bent it Is well to put bayonets
rather than compromises to the fron.t.
We are actually beginning to enter
tain a feeling of .sympathy for Presi
dent Cleveland, but we hope he won't
stltle it by declaring for McKlnley.
The Chicago protest against govern
ment by injunction means In effect a
declaration In favor of government by
riotous mobs.
Tho trouble with Spanish promises
to Cuba is that history teaches they
lack the enacting clause.
And now, what will the Mugwumps

WILL REQUIRE HARD WORK.
From the Wllkes-ttarre Record.
.Men whose business it is to familiarize
themselves with the sentiment prevailing
among the masses require no argument to
convince them that in the great political
contest ok the present year the Republican
party will not have a walk-over to suc
cess. The one-sided result of the elections
during the past two years has begotten
a conlldence in the minds of many Repub
licans that the restoration of their purty
to tho complete control of tho national
government is only a matter of form, that
such a result Is assured in advance, and
that no special elTort will be necessary.
Those who reason in that way have failed
to correctly read the signs of the times.
Conditions have materially changed with
in the past six months, and they are blind
who have not observed these changes.
II II II
The so-called silver craze has spread
with a rapidity that was not believed pos
sible a year or less ago. It has complete
ly swallowed up one of the great political
parties and mado serious Inroads in the
ranks of the other. Thu situation is seri
ous and those who believe' in an honeBt
money policy cannot too soon recognUe
this fact. If this free silver coinage
mania were contined to the Democratic
party there would be no cause for con
cern, but, unfortunately, it is not. In ev
ery community, even In such states as
Pennsylvania, New York and throughout
New England, large numbers of men who
call themselves Republicans, have become
inoculated with the idea that free Bilver
coinage will tend to a greater measure of
national prosperity. Those men will be
held in the Republican party only because
they also believe In the necessity of a
protective tariff.
II II II
In the states west of Ohio this restrain
ing Influence is less effectively felt, and
thousands of Republicans will vote against
their party's candidate for president be
cause he stands on a platform opposed to
free silver coinage. These losses to the
Republican ticket will probably, to some
extent, be made up by votes from honest
money Democrats. The-difllculty Is that
Democrats who are opposed to free silver
coinage abound most numerously In the
Middle and Eastern states, all of which
are certain to go Republican in any event,
while In the West there are few honest
money Democrats and many Republican
Eilverltes.
II II II
The moral of all this simply Is that the
Republicans must get down to a "eam
paiirn of education." They have the
weight of the argument on their side, and
hosts of the deluded free silver advocates,
especially those among the working class
es, can be made to see that they are con
templating the same kind of a mistake
they made in 1892, when they voted against
protection. They have paid dearly for
that error of judgment, and they will pay
even more dearly for the free sliver coin
age experiment they are now clamoring
for.
WOMEN AND THE WHEEL
From the Times-Herald.
The Women's Rescue league at a con
ference in Washington promulgated a se
ries of curious observations with respect
to the use of the bicycle by women. If it
were not for the fact that this organiza
tion had dedicated itself to the noblest
kind of philanthropy and has already ac
complished a grand work In rescuing wo
manhood from the influences of degrading
environments Its pronouncement on the
bicycle question would attract little atten
tion. The question of the effect of the bl
cyelo upon womanhood has two phases,
the moral and the physical. The league
makes no concessions to any of the spon
sors for the bicycle. It declares the
wheel to be deleterious to woman morally
and physically, placing special stress upon
Its allegations as to the augmentation of
the army of outcast women by the wheel
ing pastime. Tho league also declares that
unless a halt Is soon called In the bicycle
crazo 75 per cent, of tho cyclists will he
an army of Invalids within the next ten
years.
This alarmingly pessimistic view of the
bloycle question is not justified by tho
facts. The bicycle as an evangel of health,
fresh air and sunshine has the unqualified
indorsement of nearly all physicians. It
Is taking American women out of doors,
and anything that tempts women to ex
ercise in tho open air, under proper con
ditions and with a proper environment, is
a blessing to humanity. It Is doubtless
true that many young women ride to ex
cess and are laying the foundations of
future physical ailments of a grave char,
acter, but where one woman is so foolish
as to do this-a hundred ride the wheel
sensibly, decently and healthfully. It Is
also doubtless true that to the woman of
impure life the wheel may offer a con
venient means for facilitating the execu
tion of Immoral designs, but that the
pastime Itself has a tendency to degrade
er demoralise is a proposition too absurd
for a moment's consideration. A woman
who will violate the decencies and pro
prieties of life while wheeling will violate
them upon other occasions when the op
portunity is offered. Where one woman
ride to destruction on the wheel a thou
sand ride to good health and maintain all
the decorum, modesty and circumspec
tion that characterize the well-bred, self
respecting women from the Ideal Ameri
can homes.
BROTHER SIXttERLY'S VIEW S
From tho Philadelphia Record.
Whatever else may be said of the the
ory of International bimetallism it is
harmless at least, except to the extent in
which It encourages the Sllverltes who
are rushing to the attack upon the estab
lished standard of money. Should bi
metallism be attain.! by common con
sent of the nations It Is the opinion of
many sound economists that the system
could not be maintained, or If maintained,
that it would not accomplish any desira
ble end. Gold by reason of its convenience
would still remain the money of Interna
tional exchunge, while silver would still
find its largest use as subsidiary curren
cy In the everyday retail transactions of
domestic trade. International bimetallism
would hardly change a convenient ar
rangement that has been confirmed by
general experience. If, however, in
tornutlonal bimetallism could mitigate
It) any degree the rage for free silver coin
age and thus draw oft the aftack upon
the monetary standard of the country It
would serve a good purpose.
