Chairman' Hanxa says that his po sition is that taken by Major McKinley thst the tarifT question and the money jiiestioii must go hand in hand.

Sl'KPKisE is te4ngexpresel liy some of the paiiers over the fact that the owner of gold mines in California, urn i Vnonulo are in favor of free silver; but this Mettuifig anomaly is not difficult to plain.

Cuaikiiax Wkight's letter of ni- icnatioti from the Demo-ratic State 4mmittee is a spirited, forceful laper which oe credit to the understanding nd honesty of the late head of the Democratic party in this State. Mr. Wright refuses to t raddle, f dissem Me, or keep silent when the monstrous doctrine of the Chicago platform are thrust Uxhi his party. There are other Pennsyl va u ia Democrats of si me pr- iu ineiiee who eu swallow the Chicago platform and ticket Mr. Wright makes way for one of Uieue to lead the Demo cratic forlorn hope iu Pennsylvania this year. Th e effort on the iart of the Anarch ist crew to raise a war of classes, the rich against the jioor, is a matter which addresses itself to the good sense as well tts the ittUriotisru of the American jieo- pie. fMicti an issue fomented by for- eign-U.ni Anarchists will find noulae amg tk great ma of American ro- ters. There are too many American voters who own their own homes, or who lv thrift and economy have anuuw ed raving amounting to hundreds and thousands of dollars invested againsi knew and old age. The road to rscties is also open to the humblest citizen, and the great mass of the fortuues of the men of wealth have Iwcn accumu lated hy men who began with nothing mt their energy, enterprise ana pru dence. The Cabinet, which was on the verge of a serious break-up, has not yet reach ed the crisis which was threatened. Hoke Smith is the only one who as yet has turned from the bold face against silver which he put on when the issue first presented it-elf as an element of discord in the Democratic ranks. Ol- ney remains straight for the present Carlisle is in the epigrammatic stage. He finds no chance for his own future except in continuing the fight for sound money. Any backward step on ins part would strengtuen iauieiM: Blackburn. Lamont favors an accom modation ticket for the benefit of Sound Money Democrats, rather than have them see how good it is to support a party of fixed and progressive princi- les. Herbert will go to Europe, i i.e Alabama elections have weakened his sound money ideas very sensibly. Wil son, who is ready to land in the free silver camp, is also booked for Europe to await the settling down of the Dem ocratic managers to some defined line of action. Harmon is in New Jersey and may hold out. The bucolic mem ber of the Cabinet is the only one who seems to be determined to fight for the defeat of the Chicago ticket and plat form regardless of party lines. It is a singular fact that the Demo cratic party fought the McKinley law principally upon the ground that ttie effect of that measure was the raising of prU-es, and yet it is making a fight this year for a currency policy w uicti it declares to be right and necessary le cauae it ironjiscs tlue same kind of a result The fact is frankly admitted by the advocate of the free and unlimited coinage of silver that uuch would be its inevitable effect Indeed, that is one of their main arguments in it favor. They say that an increase of currency means higher prices, and that higher prices mean more business, more em ployment, and Utter times in every respect The objection that they so strenuously urged against the McKin ley law, and the one that was most ef fective iu winning a victory for them against it, they now put forward as the chief merit of their projosition to sub stitute an inferior for a superior kind of niouey. They have ceased to talk alout cheapening anything but the currency, and are loudly proclaiming that the pri"e of everything tlit the people buy must be increased before we fan expect to have proserity. There is a certain plausibility in the proposition to raise price for the pur pose of invigorating depressed com merce and industry, aud causing idle capital to be invested In labor-employ ing enterprises, but it ceases to lie at tractive to men who are working for salaries and wages when they come to consider the fact that in the present in stance the method involves an increas ed cost of living without any assurance of increased means to meet it They have fixed incmies, in a sense, and they naturally want those incomes to buy as much as possible. Free silver signifies to them a reduction of the purchasing power of the money that they receive for their services. The men of whom they rent houses and from whom they buy food, fuel and clothing, would at once put up the prices on them; but it would not be in their own power to raise the price of their labor in a cor responding degree. Their employers could neither be jersuaded nor compel led to pay them two dollars where they are now getting one. They would lie comparatively helpless on both hands, necessarily paying more for everything and yet rtavriving little or nothing more in the wav of salaries and wages. It is easy for them to see, therefore, if they will look at the matter from axm;nioii sense Kint of view, that the higher price held out as one of the induce ments for them to vote for free silver would certainly be more detrimental than advantageous ao far as they are concerned. Veteran For KcEinley. The progress of the organized move ment by the veteran soldiers of the coun try to secure the election of McKinley and the preservation of sound money principles was seen the other evening in a meeting of veterans at the hotneof fien. Daniel E. Sickles, No. 23 Fifth avenue. New York ei'y. The conference was de- voted to a eofisideration of two forms of an address to be made to the veteran sol diers throughout the country.

"This movement is to be crystalized in a national organization of veterans w ho are opfxised to the Bryan policy ma revo lutionary and destructive of all which they fought to maintain. We will not have the country upset by Anarchist and Kociaiisia. There are now- more than OO.ouu wiMiers and soldiers' widows and orphans on the pension roll, drawing $H0,m,rtw a year, but with the Bryan ."iO-cciit dollar they would be reit out of half their due. Then there are those prudent veterans who have money in savings banks, and they want to retain the equivalent of what they now own. "I am specially gratified by the large nnmlier of Democratic veterans who have written to me expressing their intention to vote for McKinley. They write that they have always been IiemocraU, I nit that they can not stand the new dispen sation." qsirt'i aide Bot W asiiinotox, D. t, August 6. The announcement of Senator Hquire, of Washington, that he will support Bryan and Sewall created a good deal of sur prise here, for he was one of the Republi can Senators friendly to the silver cause who refused to vote w ith Senator Teller against the Dingley tariff bill and would not take part in the bolt of the Tellerites at the time of the St Louis Republican Convention. It ia supposed that his desire to be re elected to the Senate has had something to do with his bolting, lor it had been made evident that be would be defeated for the Senate In the content going on within the Republican party.

The convention adopted res olutions pledging loyal support to the national Republican candidate. H also pledged "undivided aud earnest efforts to make" Reed'a election 'this time as nearly unanimous as his great services to the State and the nation deserve." After the nomination had been made by acclamation Mr. Reed was brought before the convention and spoke as fol lows: "We in Maiue have got to make up our minds on the great issue of this campaign, and a great deal depends on what we do in Septemlsir. When we see two men standing on a corner, and both men seem to lie somewhat uneasy and unable to fully comprehend what they are talking about you may rest assured that they are talking about the currency. I shall not attempt fully to explain the currency question to you, but I shall say something axut it "We often hear that silver was demon etized in 1S73 stealthily and by the influ ence of foreign embassies. As a matter of fact, the Congressional Record of that date bad 1!J colums of speeches on the silver question, and the foreign embas sies had nothing to do with it o fraud or wickedness was practiced in ISTi The only question Is what monetary system ia the best You hear a great deal about bimetallism.

"The Democrats talk aliout the fall in prices of cotton and wheat because gold has appreciated in value. My friends. every one in this country, even the farm ers, are liable to meet with some trouble in their business and the profits of the business decrease because there are so many to divide them. Why has w beat gone down? Not liecause silver was de monetized, but liecause Russia and the Argentine Republic are raisii.g millions of bushels of wheat and they can sell it here as cheap as our farmers can. "Now we will always have money even if we demonetize every dollar of gold nd silver in the world. And we may have silver money, perhaps, but are you any better off if you have projierty reck oned in half-dollars, as it will lie on a sil ver basis rather than in dollars, as it is at prosentf Xo, we don't want silver, be cause the road is a thorny one to travel. and after you travel it it will lie still more thorny and rougher. Ml'sT PRESKRVK OfB CREDIT. Credit playa a great part In the fcilver question. If your merchants buy goods from Kngland you will find that credit amounts to a great deal, and on a silver lias is we will pay a big sum for this cred it This is why merchants do not want a silver basis. They say that on a silver basis you will scale down our debt one- half. Would you do it and deprive the man you owe of one-half of what you owe him? Shall the nation do it? "I say no, and not from sentiment do I make this statement, but from a sellish reason. We must preserve our credit in the world, and jf we adopt a silver basis He will fuin it the world over. We want no silver basis to help us out of these bard times, bocause the silver basis is dishonorable. Distrust brought on these hard times in and hard timea will last until we turn down theae Silverites, and when we settle this thing for good and all in November we will hear no more of hard times." Two-Dollar Dollars: In the joint delwte between Senator Thurston and Clarence S. Harrow at Madison, Wis, on the 31st ulL. the silver ite speaker gave great prominence to this fundamental doctrine of his party. Said he: We are not fighting for a fifty-cent dollar, but we are tightiug against the two-doilar dollar of Wall street and Ixnn bard street That is to say, against the 'HwonioHar dollars" in which every investment has been made, whether in a savings bank or an insurance company or in a little mortgage on real estate or in some hiding place in the dwelling of a poor laliorer. Thev are fiehting to cut all these dollars in two. There is no roncealineut no dis guise. They boast of iL And up in Vermont on the 1st instant lieorge Fred Williams, of Massachusetts (oh ! the pity of it!) was preaching the same cruel, heartless communistic doc trine, telling the farmers that the price of their potatoes was low because "the value of the dollar has gone up," and urging them to vote for the policy which would cut the dollars down. We ask workingmen to think of this ibs-triiie, which is at the bottom of the silver movement to they believe that the dollars which they have received in wage have len worth too much, that they have leu worth twiis as luuub ad they ought to have beeu Is any dollar worth too much for the wage-earner to whom It is paid? Ik) they lielieve that the buying nower of their dollars ought to l re duced by one-half liecause, as the Silver ites say, they have lsn able to buy twi as much food and clothing with these dollars as they ought to have pro cured for the money? The Poor Han't Dollar. New York Commercial Advertiser. A great deal is heard nowadays alaiut the present gold standard dollar being the "rich man's dollar." Lit us see what, according to the mar ket report, the record of that dol lar has been w ith respect to the "poor man." In IsT't, the year silver was "struck down." a dollar would purchase a trille UjorfJbat) a pound of tea; to-d.iy it will buy fair times as much. In J;7: a dollar would purchase a little ovcreihl poumls of refined sugar;' to day it bu lut eighteen pounds. In IM a dollar would purchase alxmt five yards of shirting; to-day it will buy aliout ten yard. In ls3 a dollar would purchase about fourteen yards of print cloth; to-day it will Imy over thirty yards. In 1S73 a dollar would purchase only a gallou aud a half of molasses; to-day it will liny over three gallons. In 1S73 a dollar would purchase aliout three-quarters of a yard of twoply ingrain carpeting; to-day it will buy two yards. In 173 a dollar would purchase only about twenty pounds of cut nails; to-day it will buy fifty pounds. Comparisons to the same effect might be made ad infini tum. Vet free silver demagogues have the lissurance u tell the "poor man" that the present dollar is solely in the interest of the "rich man," and that what the "poor man" needs is a dollar that will double his cost of living. Fortunately, the average "poor man" is not poor in common sense. Courted Her All Sight Fort Jjee, N. J., Aug. 9. Justice of the Peace Traeey had on his docket to-day one of the most pf-cnliar cases he has had to handle in a long time. The complain ant was Anthony Brier, who has a pretty and attractive daughter. Mr. Brier al leged that William Martin lulled npon the young woman, and after passing an agreeable period with the young people the old folks left them alone in posses sion of the coolest corner of the piazza. When Mr. Brier arose next morning he was surprised to find that Mr. Martin was so forgetful of the usages of polite society as to be still on the piazza. lie remonstrated with Mr. Martin, who re sented his inferences and struck him with a cluli. Judge Tracey said it was beyond Lis province to determine how long love-s might court without inter mission, but he held Martin for the Grand Jury. WHITNEY'S WISE W0Bt)8. H Sayi McKinley Will Have 200,000 Ma jority is lfew York. New York, Aug. 7. Ex-Secretary Wil- iam C. Whitney, in an interview to-day. expressed the belief that McKinley will carry New York State by 2U0.0U0 majority. It has been reported that Mr. Whitney conceded the State to the Ileniocrats and that statement he branded as absolutely false. He said: "Fnfortunately, perhaps, I am regard ed as a leader of the sound money move ment in the Democratic party, and a good many people, whether wisely or not attach importance to my utteram-e. When it is alleged that I yield New York to the silver people, they regard the sit uation of sound money as perilous. Knowing this to be the effect of what such statement from me would tie. the bear 1 element which has been raiding stocks for a long time, and which wants some new argument to further depress has , most unwarrantably seized upon my name, and rascally attributed this decla ration to me. It is false, wholly false. "i iive up the State of New York on an issue which means repudiation ? Never ! There is nothing, absolutely nothing, to justify honest men in yielding an inch of their ground. On the contrary, it is my firm conviction that Mr. McKinley will carry this State by fully 3m,ftm majority, and in that majority you will find men of all classes who put patriotism over parti sanship in an issue of this kind. I have no hesitation iu expressing this belief. It comes from what I have seen, what I have heard, what I have investigated, and what I know. People who under stand me would not for an instant ac cept as true any such statement as that attributed to me to-day ; but there are thousands who do not know me who would readily accept any such rejiort, and that is all the bears want To start a break it is only necessary to cause a fright "When the Chicago convention turned deaf ears to the Empire State delegation, New York was lost to the nominees it se lected, and from that day the native hon esty of our people has been steadily as serting itself in antagonism to the vicious silver heresy. If I have any utterance to niakecn the status of the present nation al contest it w-ill not lie by vague reimrt coming from a maneuvering clique of brokers who are trying to ruin credits, and the public may as well take this as a hint toward the truth now. Gigantic Wealth Behind the Silver Cam paign. War-hlngtun Corretqioiidciice X. V. Herald.

Two men started at 8 o'clock to shovel the dirt out of the grave, and the crowd was very restless when the spades of the diggers struck the top or the coffin-box w itb a hollow aound. The dirt was clear ed away, aud at half-past 8 the top was taken off. Wyatt was stretched in. full length in the bottom of the box and ! looked to be dead. His eyes were about j three-quarters closed aud his face was of : a deathly color. As the light of the torch was thrown on him the right liaud was seen to raise about one-half of an inch from the ground and an extraordinarily large "Adam's apple" was seen to move slightly iu his throat After the crowd was quieted down Boone made a few hypuotic gest ures aud the Issly of Wyatt liecame limp.

As the speakers aud newspapers of the Populist-Democratic persuasion have la.en circulating garbled extracts of James i. Blaine's speech in the Senate, on February 7, 17S during the delmte on tho Bland-Allison law, aud thus making it appear that Mr. Blaine was an advocate of free silver, the National Republiiran committee has de termined to send out l,0no,ii0 copies of that speech to show the people that Mr. Blaino was never a silver man. Con cerning the falsehood of the Bryan men the committee says : "These assertions are tho grossest liliel on the memory of Mr. Blaine and are made for the delilierale purpiwe of de ceiving the people, especially theruillions of lalairing meii who always idolized this great statesman. The speech from which they quote shows conclusively that if its author were alive to-day his position on the question would lie the sisition which the Republican party mvupiea. It also shows that his party's position with re speet to the free and unlimited coinage of silver in 178 was the same that it is now. It is one of the strongest and most elo quent arguments against the independ ent free coinage of silver at the ratio of ltj to I. In it Mr. Maine points out with much clearness the distress to the coun try and to the people that would surely follow the adoption of that policy," Senator Quay Will Betire. Tho Pittsburg Dispatch Friday morn ing said that liefore leaving for the South, in a pleasant chat with party at his home In Beaver last Sunday, Senator CJuay said: "It has often lieen said by others, but I never said it myself until now at the expiration of my term in the Fnited States Senate I will refuse any renomination, and instead will retire fioin polities and spend the balance of my time getting acquainted with my family." Continuing, the Senator said: "As to the truth of the report that Don Cameron is to lie a candidate to succeed himself, I am not informed, and hardly lielieve it but so far as I am personally concerned, I will not under any cimiinstaees be a candidate for re-election at the expiration of my present term," Dig down the cause of your sickness lfyouwantto get well and stiy well. Most likely it's indigestion. The irriti ting Hiisons of fermenting, putrid fisnl. left m the stomach by indigestion, cause headache, neuralgia, nervousness dizzi ness, stomach-ache, nausea, irritability. and all the other well-known symptoms of indigestion. They also cause many pains and disor ders w hich are often laid to other cau-ca and hence are not easily mired. But as soon as the poisons are removed, all these symptoms and disorders disapcnr, lie cause there is nothing left to cause them. Nothing succeeds in this like Shaker Digestive Cordial, Iss-ause it prevents the undigested food from fermenting in the stomach and helps the stomach to digest its food .

He was a candidate for the nomination for Governor iu 1-C'J, but was defeated by Upbain. He Tumbled 1000 Feet Bkllkfontk, Pa., August 5. An aero naut had a thrilling experience to-day, when his balloon burst when nearly l,i0 feet in the air. He tumbled to the ground, but was not much injured. For a week past Leo Stevens has been making ascensions at Hecla Park. To day quite a large crowd gathered to wit ness what was promised would lie a dar ing asi-ent followed by a drop with his parachute.

Aug. 10. S. It Buff- man, a market gardener near here, has a remarkable vegetable freak. It was planted as a cabbage, but instead of mak ing a head in cabbage fashion, assumed the form of a vine. At the axis of the leaves heads of aliout two pounds weight formed to the number of I.'i. In the fall the plant went to seed, an unusual thing for cabbage, which ordinarily requires to be set out the second year for seed. The seed was planted this year. It grew well, and many of the plants as sumed the vinelike habit of the parent although a majority returned to the nat ural form. Mr. Huffman thinks that it will not be long before a vine variety of the cabbage plant will be established. By picking the he-ads when they attain a weight of one or two pounds, the vine forms new heads. A Fistol in a Dining Boom. CfniERLAxn, Md., Aug. 7. A young Texan named J. P. tiilmer, created a sen sation at a h-jtel at Berkley Springs. He went in to breakfast late and after order ing an elaliorate meal demanded that it and the meal that had just been ordered by a Hagerstown tidy lie served inside of l.i minutes He emphasized his words by diaw ing an immense pistol, saying he would hboot the waiters if the meals were not on the table at the time specified. Tho young Hagerstown woman was liadly frightened and started to leave, I Kit the Texan ordered her to remain, w hich she did. The breakfasts were on time, how ever, and no one was shot. Af ter the affair the Texan paid hia '" zml went to another hotel, Waatiaa; H oe Let Alone. Under the inspiration of men who had organised riot and rebellion, and under the direct guidance of a man who had pardoned murderous bomb-throwers, the Chicago convention adopted this detest able resolution : "We denounco arbitrary interferem-e by Federal authorities in local alf.iirs as a violation of the Constitution of the I'nited States and a crime against free institutions and we especially object to g lvernmeut by injunction as a new and highly dangerous form of oppression." There is not a sneak-thief nor a bank burglar nor an incendiary, nor any other criminal in all the land, who is not op posed to "arbitrary interference" by the authorities in his own particular "local affairs." Nervous Foojdo often wonder w hy their nerves arc so weak; why they get tired to easily; why they start at every slight but EuJicn sound; why they do not sleoj nstur&lly; why they have frequent headaches, indigestion and Palpitation of the Heart. The explanation is simple. It is found in that impure blood which ia contin ually feeding the nerves upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds simply deaden and do not cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, self control, vigorous health, and la the true remedy for all nervous troubles.
