The Democrat. FRIDAY, MAY HI. 1890. AS GOOD AS GOLD. Hriiator JOIIH' Strong l'len for the I'recloiiH Silver. WASHINGTON, May 14.—The Senate re sumed consideration of the Silver bill, and Mr. Jones of Nevada, continued the .speech begun by him yesterday. Fears had be< n expressed, he said, lest goid should leave the country by reason of restoring to silver its full monetary power. Such would not be the case. For every gold dollar that left there would be a silver dollar in circulation. If, however, gold could be kept only on condition that equality and justice should be destroyed who doubted that it should go. Gold, by leason of its greater value, notwithstanding all the legislaiion In its favor, could never become the common money medium of the world. A gold coin that would represent an average day's labor would be too small for con venient handling. Silver was the money metal best suited to the mass of the people and to the variety and char acter of transactions constituting the interchanges of daily life. The supplies of both metals in existence, if united, by law, in the full money function, would have a steadiness of value which could not be attained by either separately. No amount of current production that could be expected from the mines could effect any appreciable reduction in their value — their being a combined stock of over $8,000,000,000 on hand. Were there any conceivable necessity for the demonetiza tion of either metal, why (he asked) de monetize that which promised the greater and more steady yield ? J f for any reason society should decide that any one of them should be discarded, should it not rather be that one which promised the smaller future yield than that which promised the larger ? It was absolutely vital to the welfare of society that both silver and gold should be in full and un "imited use as money, and equally in vested with the power of legal tender. V!y the remonetization of silver money will cease to be the object of commerce, and will asrain become its beneficent in strument. Activity will replace stagna tion, movement will supplant inertia, courage will banish fear, confidence will dispel doubt, hope will supersede The lifting up of silver to its rightful plane by the side of gold will set in mo tion all the latent energies ot the people. It will banish involuntary idleness by put ting every willing man to work. It will revive business and reanimate the heart and hope of the masses. Capital, no longer feaiing a fall in prices, will turn into productive avenues. The hoards of money lying idle in the bank vaults will come out to bless and enrich alike their owners and the community at large, while the millions of dollars now invested at low interest in gold-edged securities will seek more profitable investment in the busy field of industry, where they will bo utilized in the payment of wages and the consequent dissemination of comfort and happiness among the people. "ORIGINAL PACKAGE" LIQUOR HOUSES Being Opened All JOver the States of lons ami Kunsas—Whisky Sold at Ltaven wortli In Gill Bottles at Ten Cents Each. TOPEKA, Kan., May 14. —Two " origi nal package" liquor houses yesterday commenced business here, and many others will soon be in line. The Piohi bitionists will make no effort to stop them until national legislation is secured. All of the cold water agitation will be on that line. Beer in quart bottles aud whisky in half pint flasks are regarded as original packages. A Leavenworth, Kan., telegram says: Cold water men are excited. Tbey must begin their battle over again. Leaven worth will soon be dotted with " origi nal package " establishments. Whisky is being sold in gill bottles at ten cents. An Atchison, lias., telegram says: The "original package" decision will not cut much of a figure in Atchison. No matter what the final interpretation of the decision may be, it cannot possibly in crease the amount of intoxicating liquor annually consumed in the city. Immedi ately after the open saloons were closed four years ago under the prohibitory law, the joints sprung into existence, and an average forty of them have been running full blast ever since. They are under police surveillance the same as gambling houses. A Des Moines, lowa, telegram says: "Original package" houses are already opened in the cities and towns of lowa. The State authorities are afraid to meddle with the new industry. It will play a prominent part in the future politics of the State. Where to Stop. The Columbia House, at Nos. 11l and 113 North Broad street, above Arch street, Philadelphia, has been remodeled and re furnished, and has been taken charge of by Mr. Benj. Vandever, of Chester county, a well known and experienced hotel proprietor. It will be a convenient and delightful place to stop at when visit ing Philadelphia. It is opposite the Academy of Fine Arts, one square from the Broad street station P. R. R., one half square from the Masonic Temple, one-half square from the new City Hall, and near all the leading places of amuse ment. The proprietor, Mr. Vandever, is a pleasant gentleman aud will make it comfortable for those who make the Co lumbia their home while in the city. The terms are 12 a day. A TUSSLE WITH A BURGLAR. Sixteen shotH Exctianged Before the Fellow Is Overpowered. PHILADELPHIA, May 14.—Charles, alia 8 i Roddy Beasley, a desperate character and associate of thieves, Policeman Iseminger nd Watchman Hanlcy, colored, ex changed sixteen shots early yesterday morning with the result that Beasley was safely lodged in jail. Watchman Hanley was passing Twelfth street and Snyder avenue with his dog. He heard a noise in the yard of Fernand Martini, a saloon keeper, and crossing there, overheard one man caution another to keep quiet. The dog rushed beneath the house only to speedily come out with a yelp caused bY a kick. In au instant the gate was thrown open and Beasley and a companion rushed out and up the street to an alley, which they entered and scaled a fence. By this time Policeman Iseminger ap peared on the scene. Iseminger started toward the upper end of the alley with revolver drawn, when Beasley dashed out. Both officers started in pursuit. The des perado turned and discharged two shots at the policemen, who promptly returned the Are. Hanley tried to bead off the man, when the latter shot at him. Tne watchman responded in like manner, and this was followed by a fusillade of shots. The chase continued to C'antrell street, where Beasley entered a house in course of construction. In an instant t'le officers were at his heels. lie again drew his revolver, but it failed to discharge. Through the house and out to an open lot lied the fu gitive, but he was not fleet enough for Hanley, and in an instant he fell beneath a clqb blow on the head. Beasley was up in an instant and grap pled with Hanley, but was soon overpow ered with the assistance of Iseminger. On the grouud was found a revolver which contained a single bullet. Beasley's com panion made good his escape, After the prisoner had been locked up, the officers retui ned to Martini's saloon and discovered that the kitchen door had been jimmied open. A small jimtny and some wooden wedges were lying in the yard. The pris oner said that he came from Scranton about a year ago. He was committed for burglary and beld in $2,000 bail for as sault and battery with intent to kill. Beasley is credited with having been a brave soldier during the war,and he wears a Grand Army badge. As "Reddy" Beasley, house breaker,he has been known to the police for almost a quarter of a cen tury, but, strange to say, there is not a single conviction recorded against him. Twenty years ago he, Matlie Dunn, and another criminal were arrested for bouse robbery, but they escaped by cutting their way out of a police van on the way to jail. Kan Into an Iceberg. QDBBKC, May 14.—The Allan Line steamship Parisian, which arrived here yesterday from Liverpool, narrowly es caped disaster off the banks of Newfound land. A heavy fog prevailed and the steamer was running cautiously at the rate of six miles an hour. The lookout sighted a huge iceberg about forty yards ahead. The engines were immediately reversed, but the steamer ran onto a portion of it at a distance of about 12 feet. For a time the huge ship shivered from the shock, and great excitement prevailed on board, a panic being prevented only by the self-possession of the officers. The vessel lay on her broadside for a full min ute, and Capt. Ritchie orJcred all hands on deck, and the crew to stand by the boats. The vessel, however, soon set tled back into clear water uninjured. Had the vessel been running at a greater speed nothing could have saved her from complete wreck and great loss of life. ■♦ ♦ ♦ The MeKeesport l'oatolltce Again. WASHINGTON, May 14—Once more a controversy has started over the MeKees port postoffice, growing out of the confu sion in the names at the time Edwin Soles was nominated, the nomination being subsequently withdrawn and the nomi nation of Elmer M. Soles made. The correction was made without any official explanation being furnished, und this has been seized as a pretext upon which to file objections to confirmation. These protests come from MeKeesport, but have not been considered by the Senate Com mittee, as it has not yet held a meeting and the details are not disclosed. The nomination of Elmer M. Soles will be con firmed .because the Postmaster General intends to make good his promise that any man Congressman Ray named, ex cept Thompson, should be postmaster The present kick is annoying, bet ' consequential. Attempted Suicide at Gallitzln. Joseph Daugherty, a watchman by oc cupation, while crazy with drink on Tues day evening attempted to commit suicide. Daugherty had been on a prolonged spree. He lives in a newly-built house, and, fastening a rope over one of the rafters, made a noose, placed it about bis neck, and made a determined effort to swing himself into eternity. Ills wife discover ed him in time and cut him down with a table knife. She then summoned an offi cer who took Joseph to the lock-up, where he will have a chance to sober up. The Judge and Hta "Cousin," NBW YORK, May 14.— Judge Murat Mas terson, of Arizon, and Mrs. Alice L. Hop kinson, of 65 West Thirty-first street, who were anested Monday night on counter charges of felonious assault, were ar raigned in the Jefferson market police caurt and promptly discharged, both of them refusing to testify against each other. The pair left the court together, evidently on the most amicable terms. A Sioux Mulden Ilecome* A Nun. YANKTON, S.
