This story, told by Senator Sher
man apropos l6 iho refusal of certain
Democrats to admit that their party is
a free silver, party, saya the Meriden
Jtepublicani Is very much to the point:
An Irishman walking through a cem

In Wales the womou and children
work with the men in making tin
plates, and it is not uncommon to see
a whole' family engaged on the same
job from tho dwarfed and stunted
youngster to the father aged before his
time, all laboring Bide by side. Against
such cheap labor the United States
cannot compete without protection.
In this country tho children are to go
to school and the women are not to en
gage in such distasteful and inappro
priate work as tlnplato dipping, but
the men who do it are' to have good
-wages. Hence the necessity of pro
tective duties on tin plate. '
As Gen. Grant said, the Democratic
party can always bo depended upon to
blunder. Already, by the mere agita
tion of Bland's scheme for a compul-
eory 412 grain dollar, at present and
ultimately a 400 grain dollar, the Dem
ocrats have succeeded in exciting un
easiness in Europe' and that is telling
heavily on the United States. Europe
is sending back American stocks and
bondB and demanding gold. But for
the alarm whioh has been excited
there the United States would at this
time be getting from fifteen 'to twenty
millions of gold per month from
Europe. It is all well enough (o say
that there Is no danger of tho adoption
of the free silver bill; that tho Senut'o
will defeat It or the President will kill
it with a veto, bnt tho fact remains

tion in tho reckless and alarming
fashion characteristic of the Demo
crats party excites fear abrcitd and
hurts the country severely. The Re
publican party can discuss and adopt
measures looking to a large Increase of
silver or other money (as It did two
years ago, for instance) Without alarm
lug foreign security holders, but it is
impossible for tho Democratic party
to do so. From tho foreign as well as
the home standpoint tho Republican
party is the party of safe and sound
finances, while theDemocmllo organ
ization is just the opposite. Tile won
derful success of Republican financial
politics In maintaining the greenbacks
In returning; to Specie, payments, in
upholding the public credit and pay

that party great prestige1 abroad. It
Is the only party which can be safely

HE Republican county
delegates were slow in
getting down to work
at Pottsville to-day.
Tho conyontion, was
to have assembled at
10 a. m., but tho dole
gates did not got to
gether until 11 o'.clock.
Politicians from all
part of1 the couu.v
crowded tho hotels lrn night and this
moraine; discufslng the advisability ot
nominating a Republican candidate for
Judge, or pf nominating a county ticket
and leaving tho judgeship open.
Some suggested that tho convention meet
and then, adjourn to eomo , jture date.
The Seltzer-Koch, and other combinations
having candidate! for office were, in favor
of nominating a lull, tickot, but tho dole-
gates' who wore understood to favor tho
Pershing mqvompnt clamored for delay.
When tho convention was finally called
to order William H. Lewis, of WovPonn,
was nominated fpr chairman arid,eU3ted.
Mr. Lewis mado a short but graceful ad
dress in acknowledgement, of the honor.
afifor-whicb the convention adjourned until
2 p. m.
After I ha convention adjourned the
Perching pooplo commenced to got in tho!
work and it.looked as if they would be able
to bring about a movement in their favor
at the afternoon session.
Tho Seltzer faction was also working
industriously, but they wero uncorapromis
ing in thoir'demand lor a full ticket.
Thejudgesbip seemed to bo monopoliz
ing the attention of tho delogates and tho
dolegateshlps.Boomod almost lost to viow.
The convention reconvened after 2 p. m.,
but up to three p. m. thero was nothing
done worthy 'of report.
No nominations have boen made and it
is hard fo predict what tho outcome of the
convention will be. 5

It is reported that the Hhenandonb bracb
f tho Phl'adelpbia & Reading Railrond
will bo ii'od exclusively for freight and

Valley road will have tho passenger traffio
between' Sbonandoah and Ash'an
I'd cio and other reports make" changes at
the depots of tho two rdads In town a mat
er of dally oxpectancy. That there will
be several changes at tbo 'Lehigh "Valloy
freight depot is a certainty, as ids intended
that tho P. & R. and L. Vi'R,' R. freight
business shall bo consolidated.
, It Is also reported that, tho Reading Com
pany will shortly accede to tho request for n
miners' train between this town and Frack
yllle, but what arrangement will bo mado
U not stated. ,,.
Tho proposed changes in tho running of
paesongcr trains will probably bo mado
known tbli week. A number of trains will
bo taken ofl and tho runs of others will be,
extended. Provision will bo mado to givo
the crews places on freight trains and runs
as extras.
Bevoral changes wnt into effect on tho
Lehigh road Sunday. All tbe trains carry
two red flags nt tho rear of tho last cars, at
is done on all P. & R. trains.
Five passenger trains wero taken off on
Sunday two on tho Jersey Oontril und
throe on the Lehigh Vulley. Ono ot them
was the "fast flyer" between Pottsville nn'd
Easton. The engineer and fireman. of that
train are now running between Delano and
Ashland, and Lizard Oreok Junction and
Pottsville. They will move their famili a
from Pottsyillo to Dulano. , 5 ',
Thq passenger train that left Delano at
5:45 p. m. for Orwlgsburg has boen taken
off and the crew has been transfnrred to a
new fast freight train between Djlauo and.
Lizard Creek via Maucb Chunk.

Bogus Coin Collectors.
A gang of sharpors are baving success In
a swindling game in tho interior towns of
.this state and have touphed ono, or two
towns In this county. A woll-droesodnan
puts in an appoaranco at a store and informs
the proprietor that ho is searching for raro
coins, giving a list of specimons and iheir
alleged value. Ho asks the storekeeper, to
keep a sharp lookout and in case he gets
any of the coins mentioned in tho alleged
list, to keep them until bo returns, which
he says will be in a short time. Soon an
btber Stranger casually' drops in and buys
some Jitthj article, and, in making change.
exhibits several coins, which, ho says, ara
pocket pieces, The proprietor consults his
list and finds the valuo of tho alleged
pocket pieces put down at &10 or 810 each.
Anxious to mako ,a good, thing the'jjtore-
Kpoper nearly always pays a good (big prico
for. tbo pieces. He then waits for'the man
who mado tho temp ing offers, but he never
turns up. Tho trick was played on' a
Tamaqua merchant about six weeks ag(.
Ho was s) mortified by the figure of tho
coin gatherer to make any visit ho kopt the
affair n secret until last week.
