WnshlnRton, Foil. 2:!. The following
address was Issued tills afternoon ly
the silver ItunubllciuiH of the Bonnti
and house:
An address: To tho silver Kcpuhll
ctins of the United States: There could
not he u better Illustration of the meat
law hy whleh In free Rovurninents. the
rise, progress and decline of imrtles are
determined, than that afforded tiy re
cent and present political developments
in the United States. 1'ollllcul parties
ure prnetlenl Instruments for executing
the will of the people In respect to
principles and pollrles of Rovernmi'iit.
They, therefore, should represent and
respond to public opinion In Its atti
tude toward the problems whleh the
experience of the nation from time to
time brings forward for solution. .It Is
not parties that make issues, but It Is
issues that make parties.
For years events have been forcing
upon tho country, with ever Increasing
dellnltcness and emphnsls, the neces
sity of reform in our monetary system,
ns respects both thu coinage of metnlllo
money and tho regulation and control
of etedlt cuneney. Under stress of ex
perience nnd consequent Investigation
opinions have been gradually crystal
lising. In this process the line of cleav
age has paid little regard to previous
ly existing party declarations; and to
day the moet careless observer cannot
fnll to see that the genius of the nation
Is approaching a settlement of this
momentous controversy through the
agency of political instruments now be
ing fashioned to its hand,
ACTION OF SILVKlt HKPUBLK'ANS
In the history of these formative
events, tho so-called silver Republicans
have taken an important part and dis
charged a. necessary function. In do
ing so they have not surrendered their
convictions on certain other great prin
ciples of political economy and gov
ernment, but hoy realize that those
principles ure not capable of successful
application under prrvent monetary
conditions. They believe, therefore,
thut tho adequate treatment of all
other Issues must await the correct de
cision of the dominant one this pre
sented. Tn this spirit they eo-oper-tited
with the organized forces of bi
metallism in the last campaign. Ev
ery consldpiallon of patriotism and ex
pediency seem to counse' a continua
tion of that policy. Silver Republicans
believe themselves to be In harmony
with tho original spirit of tho old Re
publican party, and they claim a prop
erty In Its great names and glorious
traditions justified by the splendid ser
vices and sanctified by tho sacred
memories of the time when that party
embodied tho .asplintinns and spoke the
purposes of the axon I masses of the
American people. That party was born
in answer to a cry for a champion of
liberty. Its early words were words of
comfort and assurance to the op
pressed. Its great deeds by which it
will hereafter live in history were deeds
of patriotism. Its policies professed
nbov all things to bold dear the safety
and welt are of the American people as
against the rest of the world. The sil
ver Republicans cannot forget that his
tory. They cannot today follow those
who has usurped the dominion of that
party Into a shapeless abandonment of
American Intore-HS and the tyranny of
an alien monotavy system. They be
lieve tha: the duty of the hour demands
that they maintain their Identity and
perfect, their organization.
QUESTION OF PARTY POLICY.
Clrcumstnnce3 hav sometimes In the
past thrust upon tho undeivslirned re
sponsibilities on behalf of silver Repub
licans, which, In tho absence of formal
organization, we have felt warranted
in assuming. Recently, moreover, we
have been receiving a vast number of
anxious Inquiries from various parts of
the country upon the question of party
policy and requesting us to give some
definite direction thereto. These com
munleat'ons exhibit a surprising and
gratifying unanimity In sentiment and
plan. Responding to these questions
and suggestions, and nt the same time
expressing our own deliberate opinion,
we urge upon the silver Republicans of
the United States, and upon all citi
zens, of whatsoever party association,
who are willing to co-operate with us
in political action until the great mon
etary Issue Is settled and settled light,
that Immediate steps be taken to per
fect organization In the various states
and territories, to the end that there
after a national convention may be
held for the purpose of making an au
thoritative pronouncement to the coun
try and effecting a national organiza
tion. As soon as possible each pf the
states and territories should designate
a member of the provisional nntlonnl
committee of the silver Republican
party, which committee will have
charge of the calling of the national
convention and of nil matters prelim
inary thereto. Meantime, we have
taken tho liberty of naming Hon.
Charles A. Towne, of Minnesota, as
chairman of said provisional national
committee, whoso nlclul address for
the present will be the city of Wash
ington, nnd to whom all communica
tions should be sent. The provisional
national committee Is hereby called to
meet In executivo session at the city
of Chicago at a place to be seasonably
announced by the chairman, on Tues
day, the eighth day of June, 1S97.

Through dipt, i'nliuer.
Washington. Fob. 23. Captain Juli
us A. Palmer, at present acting secre
tary to the ox-quoon of Hawaii, has
furnished tho following statement:
Lllluokalanl did not ask for sneelflc
appointment with the president: hav
ing simply advised him of her arrival
and wish to call, she was otllclally In
vited by Mr. Cleveland within nn hour
of tho receipt of her note. Her call
upon Mrs. Clovojnnd was voluntarily
arranged by that lady without the
least hint from any one representing
Lllluokalanl. 'No other communication
of any kind or nnttire has ever passed
between the llnwnllan party and the
executive olllce; all statements to the
contrary ure absolutely false. Her
neglect to visit the cnpitol was caused
by a severe cold which detained her at
her apartments two weeks, at the close
of which executive sessions on the ar
bitration treaty excluded all visitors.
She has received from several sources
intelligence, conveyed to her In her own
language, that a plot has been mnde
to assassinate her while here, because
she is the greatest obstacle to annexa
tion. She knows ns Intimate friends
the persons from whom the warnings
come, nor Is she Ignorant of the names
of those to whom the work was as
signed, but will not mention these. Rut
her removal from one hotel to anothei
was occasioned by the prior enirnso
ment of the apartments nt the Shore
ham for inauguration week, and from
this cause only.
While appreciating the solicitude of
her friends, she lias not tho least fear
and twice since the warning was re
ceived has driven about the city In an
open carriage, has occupied a pew In
church and a box at the theater. She
has never given to the press any an
nouncement of the object of her visit,
her plans while here, the length of her
stay. Nor has she declared any opin
ion as to her present relation to the ex
isting government nt Honolulu, or to
the alleged annexation commission now
on its way to Washington. .
Lllluokalanl will give another nubile
reception on Thursday afternoon, from
3 to i. Grand Chamberlain Palmer to
night gave out this Information. lie
said his "Ciraclous lady" will be "at
home" on tho day mentioned, and will
be glad to see all of Washington's peo
ple If they desire to cnll. The word
was given to the superintendent of the
Cairo flats this nfternoon to Invite the
Indies of the various apartments In U
see the "Roynl lady" from tho Hawaii
an Islands, and from present Indica
tions there will be a crush. At first
the invitation was extended to "Ladies
of the House." but later It was thought
best that It be made general. At the
reception given two weeks ago tho peo
ple pushed and jammed to get In the
Shorehnm, and then they were not al
lowed to see the royal lady because
they were not Invited.
THE DAY IN CONGRESS.
A Resolution Is Passed Calling for a
Statement Concerning the Fate of
Dr. RuizBills Passed.
Washington, Feb. 23. In the senate
today a resolution was offered by Mr.
Mills, of Texas, and was agreed to,
requesting the president to furnish a
statement of the facts concerning tho
arrest. Imprisonment and death of Dr.
Rlcaulo Ruiz in a Cuban Jail.
Practically the entiie day was con
sumed In a discussion over an amend
ment In tho Indian appropriation bill
for tho opening to settlement of the
Uncomprnhgre Indian reservation In
Utah, containing over 2,000,000 acres.
Tho amendment was opposed by Mr.
Vilas, principally' on the ground that
It wan In the Interest of rich corpora
tions, who were engaged In the busi
ness of extraction of asphaltum and
gllsonlte, of which there ure large and
valuable deposits In the reservation.
Refore abandoning tho light, Mr. Vilas
proposed an umendment looking to the
survey of these mineral lands and
their division into lots which were to be
leased for twenty-five years, on royalty
of so much per ton to be paid to the
government. This was foimht by Mr.
Rrown, of Utnh, as entlroy nt variance
with the mining laws of tho country
and with the Interests of tho people.
It wns defeated and then the original
amendment, somewhat modified, was
agreed to. That one paragraph was
the only paragraph which tho senate
made in the Indian bill.
The house lato this nfternoon ran
unexpectedly Into an Interesting nnd
possibly significant discussion of the
civil service law. It came about by
the consideration of a bill to amend tho
revised statutes so as to give tho gov
ernors of the territories the power to
remove as well as to" appoint ceitaln
territorial olllcers.
It was participated in by a dozen
members or more, nearly all of whom
criticised and condemned the law, It
finding its only defenders In Represen
tatives Rroslus, of Pennsylvania, and
Walker, of Massachusetts. Mr. Gros
venor, of Ohio, denounced It as a sinu
ous, Infamous conspiracy upon the gov
ernment and expressed the opinion that
a tide was rising In this country, which
would sweep bureaucracy from power.
Mr. Ualley, of Texas, denounced the
system ns humbug, and said th rea
son the Democratic party did not repeal
the law, when It had tho power was
that it did not have sense enough. Mr.
Rroslus deprecated the sentiments of
Mr. Grosvenor and of the Republican
applause whleh the utterance evoked,
saying, that in view of Major McKln
ley's well known attitude toward the
merit system It seemed to him, "a lllng
of the sword In the heart of the president-elect."
Tho bill passed.
The most of tho session was passed
in consideration of the naval appropria
tion bill.
Mr. Barrett criticised tho bill for its
failure to make an appropriation for
what he deemed to be one of tho most
important parts of the service, the
construction of dry docks, and he
moved nn amendment authorizing one
to be built at the noston navy yard to
cost not exceeding one million dollars.
Ho made an extended speech In sup
port of the amendment, which was fol
lowed by a long and somewhat acri
monious discussion, but it was finally
defeated only nbout half a dozen mem
bers supporting It. The bin was passed
as It came from the committee on naval
affairs.
A senate bill was passed granting a
pension to the widow of the lute Gen
eral Thomas L, Casey, chief of engi
neers with an amendment reducing tho
amount from $75 to $50 por month.
