The American wage-earner not only wants steady work at cood. wages, but he wants those wages paid, when earn ?tf. In full-value dollars. Hence he will vote for MrKlnley, Protection and sound money. Into Our Rivals' Hands. A point that Is generally overlooked ,n connection with the unlimited free coinage movement Is opportunely Bet forth by Director Preston, of the mint. He calls attention to the fact that un less congress should enact some spe cial provision preventing It, the na tions of the world, In case a free coin age law shall be placed on the statute books, could ship all their bullion to the United States for coinage. Here It would receive the government stamp, and would be used to buy American goods for shipment abroad. The re sult would be that foreigners would get all American goods at half price, while Americans would have to pay the full rate for them. This would truly be a fine situation for the American farmer, who now fav ors free silver because he thinks it would give him better prices for his grain and cotton. Instead of the high prices the dollar wheat and the twenty-cent cotton that are bo seductively pictured ty Imaginative Bllvcr cam paigner h would under this obvious ly logical arrangement of affairs have to dispose of his-exports at practically the present price, whereas the only ones who would have to pay more for these articles than Is now being paid for them would be the American con sumers whose money under free coin age would be depreciated fifty per cent. Instead, therefore, of strengthening our selves for Increased competition against our gold-standard European rivals we would, under the Ilryan plan, simply throw ourselves Into their hands and become, as It were, commercial prison ers of war. Add to this the Bryan Idea of a rev enue tariff, with Its inestimable menace to domestic Industry and home labor and you have a combination of policies about as dangerous to American pro gress and prosperity as could well be devised. And yet the men who advo cate these twin measures of commercial and financial ruin have the hardihood to declare that they do so in the inter est of the American producer, whose market they would give away and whose wages they would vitiate to .the extent of almost one-half of its face value. Can the producers of America be fooled by such a transparent skin game? Dr. Eaton, treasurer of the Metho dist Episcopal Missionary society, makes the point against free silver that It would sacrifice one-half of that so ciety's usefulness. Last year the society sent 624,77.W abroad. If free sliver had prevailed In this country, half of this sum would have had to be paid to the banks as premium 'on the cold drafts for the remaining half. Even In silver standard countries drafts) from the United Slates are not accepted! t:n Uss drawn for gold. Is the experiment worth the price? The Chicago convention will be known in history as the carnival of eccentrics. "The Money of tho United. States, and every kind or form of it, whether of paper, silver or gold, must be as good as the best ia the world. It must not only be current at its full face value at home, but it must be counted at par in any, and every commercial center of the globe. The dollar paid to the fanner, the wage-earner and the pensioner must continue forever equal in purchasing and debt-paying power to the dollar paid to any gov. eminent cresHtor.".YIcKiuley in His Speech of Acceptance. A good idea to bear In mind through out the summer months Is that no mat ter what happens at the polls next fall, the government at Washington will go right on. Let the debate be sharp and Incisive, but let us keep our tempers and conserve, as far as possible, our nervous energy. Jones, His Plans. Chairman Jones, the successor of Ilurrlty, thus outlines his campaign plans: "The financial lipue will be forced to the front all the time, and the Republicans will be kept, as they ore now. on the defensive. There will be little or no talk of the tariff, excel t to Insist that the country does not want s return of McKlnleyUm. It has re pudiated McKlnleylsm once, and any body who knows the temper of the pto rle knows that there Is no popular U rnand for another era of tremendously high prices, with enormous profits to the manufacturer, In which the work ing man did not share." The Republican party Is entirely will ing to remain "on the defensive." This U not the first campaign in which tne pc-oplu have had to look to It to de fend them against threatening peril? of Democratic manufacture. The Rt publlcan party can stand on the de fensive with as good grace and as clear a conscience as any other party tha? ever was formed. Its record invites scrutiny and Its visible works court the ptrlbtest Investigation. Mr. Jones should not forget, though, that while he and his socialistic following are keeping the Republicans on the defen sive they will also keep on the defen sive, alongside those Republicans, many of the ablest and most influential Dem ocrats In the nation. The element which has heretofore given character to the Democracy, which has Imparted to its chaotic principles something of the dignity arising from reputable and dis tinguished championship. Is already a raying Itself also "on tho defensive," and among the Democrats who are lei'. behind, under nominal allegiance to Hryan, probably one-half are lukewarm and Indifferent. Rut if there is no demand for high prices, why are the silver forces promis ing high prices as the result if they shall succeed at the polls? Upon what other plea can they recommend free sil ver to the disaffected farmers of the West? Mr. Jones had better be care ful or he will get his cause into trouble. Jibes at McKlnleylsm are risky experi ments, now that the people are fresh from the disasters which followed Mc Kinleyism's overthrow four years ago. It will be remembered that It was by the use of just such jibes that the Democracy fooled the people Into mak ing the incalculably costly change of 1892. , The same bunco game cannot be successfully worked twice in succes sion, Mr. Whitney says he will have noth ing to do with the Democratic ticket. He will not be lonesome. Crops, Pr'ces and Votes. The Salt Lake Tribune, In the rourse of a forecast of the campaign, remarks that: "All the present indications are that there will be a bountiful crop through all tho agricultural regions of the Republic. Thut crop will be har vested before election day, and we rather suspect that that crop will be one of the deciding forces of the campaign, be cause when the crop shall be nursed and tended and Anally harvested it will be a plain case that it will not bring- to those who produced it enough to give them any reward for their toil. That, we suspect, will control In great meas ure the vote of the agriculturalists In this country." It ought to. And the following table of prices under Republican protection and under Democratic "tariff reform" will help to make It clear to the har vesters of this crop why it "will not bring to those who produced It enough to give them any reward for their toil." 18W. 1S92.

If the farmers of the country will think of this when they go to the polls nest fall, It will be likely to result In the veri fication of the Salt Lake paper's pre diction, although not in the manner It expects. Every farmer In Lackawanna county Is being supplied, free of cost, with weekly Issues of the National Bimetal list. This paper Is printed at Chicago by an organization of forces represent ing thq owners of western silver mine. Its editor, H. F. Bartlne, ha3 long been an agent of these mine-owners. The object of this free distribution of course is to gain votes for the giving to the mine-owner of a standard dol lar for every fifty cents' worth of their silver bullion. Every vote they can get for Bryan means a vote to rut mil lions of dollars Into their own pockets. It Is u gamble on the credulity of the agricultural vote. The Toronto Globe, Canada's ablest newspaper, thinks that as the campaign in this country progresses, the rout:d money side will be carried to victory by conversions from among the orgu-.t-Ized worklngmen in the cities who now seem to favor frte silver. It adds: "They have everything to lose by a free coinage triumph, as t lit 'last price to respond to the debased currency would be tho wages of labor." A large majority of the worklngmen are Protectionists, who have had their belief In Protection greatly strength ened by the events of the past three Democratic years. They will think twice before voting for Bryan and free trade. Mr. Uryan and Mr. Bland should make their Lumen and Pythian act one ot the regular features of the campaign. It looks nice, It is harmless and It la a great deal less risky than trying to give serious arguments In behalf of free silver. Those Illinois Democrats who want to split the forces of sound money would look cheap If as a result of their foolish partisanship the government of the nation were turned over to the revolu tionists. Oratory, no doubt, is a very fine art; but for practical purposes horse sense Is safer. THE PASSINQ OF CLEVELAND. Rochester Democrat-Chronicle. Where Is Cleveland's luck now? WhHt has become of the man of destiny? The Democratic hero of three national cam paigns, the man who, of all others that could he named. Including such men .is McClellun, Seymour, Huncock and Tll den, not to mention poor Horace Greeley, was the only one who could laad the De mocracy to a national victory, Is now at the close of his second toriu In the. white house hated, denounced, rejected and spurned by the national convention of nls own party. Tho Democratic party In Its highest representative council deliberately declares that the only Democratic presi dent it has given the country In more than a third of a century does not deserve even so much of a complimentary reference as la comprehended In a formal declaration that his administration has been honest, courageous and faithful. II t? No Not honest? Not courageous? Not faithful? With what amazement must President Cleveland have observed the ac tion of that committee on resolutions In refusing him a testimonial to the posses sion of those qualities! Has he not for the past twelve years, in season and out of season, been proclulming himself the anointed and consecrated high priest, pro moter and exemplar of those qualities In the public life of this nation ? Has he ever failed to talk about honesty, courage and fidelity In any of his official documents? Yet here Is his own party, the party that he has uniformly declared to be the spe cial depository of all the political virtues, refusing at its last national convention before he delivers his valedictory to pub lis life, to admit that his nmdlnlstratlon deserves a word of approval in Its plat form. But that is not' all '1'he repudiation of Cleveland by the Democratic party has been positive aa well as negative. It Is marked not only by what the convention refused to put in Its platform, but by what It has actually inserted. Blow aft.-r blow Is administered to the president by that instrument. First the free silver men come up In a body and, lifting their hands, smite him with their dishonorable plank. Then came the anarchists and to clalistic agitators as represented by Alt geld, their boots soiled by tho mire of their bloody and dirty doctrines, nr.d with kicks and blows pay the president off for his action In ordering troops to support the cause of law and order. Next appear those who favor a more liberal treatment of the pensioners than Cleveland has ever shown and they revile him. Prom beginning to end, with the exception of the tariff plank and one or two minor ut terances, the Democratic national plat form Is aimed more to discredit and re verse the Democratic national admlnlnird. tion than to antagonize the Republican party. All the nntl-Cloveland elements of the Democracy that have been accumulat ing through two administrations seem to have concentrated their forces at Chi cago with a view to heaping shame and indignities upon their own president. But wc do not suppose that Mr. Cleve land will give way under this opprobrium. Incased in his own self-esteem, believing supremely in himself, he will go through to the end. unconscious that he has be. come almost un object of pity even to his enemies. The time when the value of his lofty faith in himself can be fairly tested has arrived. The Republican party, of course, has little respect for a man who has pursued such a policy as his at horns or abroad. The Populists never had any use for him, and now that the Democracy has turned against him he stands alone. But he has had two terms In the presi dency; he has acquired a large fortune; he has a charming wife and lovely chil dren, and he will continue to think W ill of himself. THE MISSING WORD. Somewhere In realms of musty lore. Where spider weave and book worms bore, Where shadows In grotesque array Hold revels anil defy the day. There Is a word: a grewsome sound. Writ In strange characters and found Within a tome, which hideous elves Guard as they grin from moldy shelves. It Is a most uncanny thing. Wild as the songs that warlocks sing; Lettered In signs that come and go Like brimstone's flickering, pallid glow. 'TIs all In vain we strive to find This thing so missed by all mankind; This word, which, once we loosed Its tether. Would suitably describe the weather. Washington Star.

For examples of the proceeding at Chi cago the history of our own and of all other civllsed nations will bo r4r.sac.k0 J in vain. In the frenry and mildness of the French revolution the Jacobin were too prudent to threaten the nation with bankruptcy and wl'h a violation of the ablijation of contracts. When Bs'ueuf and his associates were detected In thulr con spiracy airuir.st the rights of property they bud the grace to anticipate the veil gtance of rhe law unl hung themselves; but the Atlgelds, Tilltnaiis, ilrynns, Blunds and their misguided and Infatuated ad herents huvu the daring to openly pro claim depreciated currency, repudiation and e.'..-.!.n-utluti to the people of the L'nltf I States aa tha esentlal features of a comprehn-ve political programme. NOT FIT TO BE mESIDEXT. From the Wllkes-Darre Record. Tho Scranton Tribune yesterday apol ogized for having on Saturday referred to candidate Bryan as a "blathersltito." That Is right. Whatever criticism Retub lican papers may properly pass 'on the candidate of the Democrattc-Popullst-An-arclst-Free Silver Coinage party. It Is only fair to recognize the fact that Will lam Jennings Bryan is personally a clean and honorable young man; that he Is bright, brainy and eloquent It would 00 worse than foolish not to admit. What he Is sorely deflcient li is experience, dis cretion, sound judgment and statesman ship . The qualities that have given him prominence do not alone fit a man for the great office of president. THE QUESTION OF AGE. From the Salt Lake Tribune. Mr. Bryan is younger than any other man was when nominated for president. But ho Is older than Alexander Hamilton was when he framed the financial system which we desire to have restored, older than Napoleon was at Austerllti, olr than Alexander the Great was when he had conquered the world, older than Q rover Cleveland was when he was elect ed sheriff of Erie county. QUICK TO HESPOND. From the Wllkes-Barre Record. Tho Scranton board of trade fund for the relief of the families of the Plttston Twin shaft victims tias reached $7,000, and Is growing dally. A number of the more wealthy men have made contribu tions of :5o0 each. Scranton has a way of responding very liberally to every worthy appeal for aid. THE PROPER THING. From the Times-Herald.
