GOLD will continue to go out as long as
the Democrats stay In. The country
would be much better oft" If it could ex
port the Democrnta and keep the yellow
metal at homo. But as there Is no domes
tic, so there Is no foreign demand for
them, nud they are not wanted anywhere
except now nnd then by the criminal
courts and the Grand Jury. With the
present currency tinker at the head of the
Finance Department it Is rather surprls
tng that n dollar of gold is left In ti
country. It does not flow aw ty from him
reluctautly like molasses in winter, but
with nimblest radiating centrlfugallty
like tho distribution of Koumiss out of an
exploded bottle. When he leaves the de
partment he will probably nob leave
enough of the standard metal to start n
gold cure with, nnd the retiring Admin
Istration may need one.
A fortnlgnt ago Mr. John Burns, M,
P., entered upon IiIb mission to the work
Ingmen of America, whom he then re
garded as a little better oft than African
slaves. Ills mission Is now practically
ttnded, and he doubtless now thinks that,
whatever the nctual condition of working
men here may be, they do not deserve to
be even as well off as African slaves. The
resources of his usually redundant
rhetoric must be sorely taxed to express
his loathing and contempt for them ; and
When he coxes to shako tho dust of
America from his feet thero will be danger
of a corner in the doormat market.
For it is to be observed that the work
ingmen of America or at least those of
them assembled and represented at
Denver to whom Mr. Burns most directly
came nnd spoke will have none of him
nor of his plan of industrial salvation
Mr. Burns came here as a Socialist. He
had captured the labor organizations o:
England, or most of them, and trans
formed them into political clubs o
revolutionary tendencies. He came here
confessedly to do thesame with American
organizations. He aimed to make "work
ingman" and "socialist" synonymous,
And he has failed. The Denver conven
tion, by an overwhelming majority, has
rejected the whole political scheme,
Socialistic and otherwise. Tho Denver
convention is to be congratulated on its
wise and patriotic action. To have com-
mitted Itself to Socialism would have
been to array the overwhelming mass
the American people against It.
TuxSouth.with the race question solved
will be n New South. So long as the fear
of negro domination swayed the minds
nnd ilred the prejudices of white citizens,
it was useless to ask them calmly to con
stder matters of national policy. Year
after year the dominant race rallied, re-
.gardhssof all economic convictions and
Appeals to reason and conscience, to In
sure n government by their own class and
to forge upon themselves the chains of
slavery to autocratic and selfish political
oligarchies. But a change has come. The
negro is no longer the factor in politics
that In was n few years ago. A reaction
against the demoralizing effect on the
wholo people of continued election frauds
has set in. Tho conviction is gaining
ground that the South has uew problems
to solve, und cannot go on forever listen
ing to the fervid oratory of wartime
reminiscence. The victors in the recent
Southern state elections promise to use
their newly gained power for tho good of
the whole people. Yc.tr ago the Bour
bons devised n system f local govern
ment which made nioohinr r lie easy and
created a despotism in almoin- oontrol of
nominations nnd elections. A.ilust this
the younger generation revolted. The
problem now Is to devise a system of local
administration which will Insure home
rule, will be just lo all classes of citizens,
will give'the negroes their rights and at
the same time will irnard acainst the re.

Dr. T. Voblcu contributes to Tho
Popular Sclouco Monthly tho most to
markublo paper that has yet appeared
on tho subject of woman's dress. Ho
enys it wns designed originally to show
off the wealth of tho hnsbnnds who
owned tho wnrann. It was designed .-o
ns to tnako it physically impossible Jor
womci) to walk or work, thereby show
lug that their husbands or owners viw
so rich that they did not need to walk
or work. Tho mutilation of tho Chi
nesa worann's feet is nn illustration of
tho samo principle "Conspicnor .
isto" is tho keynote of woman's dross
Women must nppcnr to bo idlo in order
to be rt'spectnblo; therefore they must
wear tho monstrous clothes that cnstoai
proscribes. This is particularly hard on
women who nro obligod to caru it liva-
lihood.
But hoar Dr. Voblen himself:
Tho cardinal principles ot thu theory of wo
man's dri-ss are thehu three :
1. ExpennlvenbHH. CunHiduveu with respi-et
to its effr ctivt'iH'HS ns clothing, apparel mu--t
be uiuM'ononilcul. It must afford evidence o,
tho ability of tho wearer's oconomlo ifiuup to
pay for things tint nro In themselves of no use
to any ono concerned, to pay without pctti.it
an equivalent In comfort or in gain. From this
principle thero is no exception.
a. JSovelty. Woman s apparel must auori!
primn facte evidence of having been worn lu-t
for a relatively Hhort time, as well as, with
rohpeet to may articles, ovidf nco of Inability
to withstand, any appreciable, amount or wear.
Exceptions from this rulo aro such things as
are of fcUfUeient pormauenco to become In lr
looms, and of such surpassing cxpenslveneha
an normally to bo posbesbed only by persona of
superior (pecuniary) rank. Tho possession of
an heirloom Is to bo commended because it
argues tho practlco of waste through more
than ono generation.
IS. Ineptitude. It must afford prima faele
eviih nco of incapacitating the wearer for an
eiiiuful occupation, mm it should also make il
apparent that sho is pommnently unfit for a:ij
useful oirorr, even alter tno restraint or tn
apparol is removed. From this rulo thero is nt.
exception.
Possibilities of tbo Bicycle.
A paper in Tho Contury calls nttcu-
tion to somo recent feats of bieyolo rid
ers. This nutuuin tor tno lirst tnno in
tho history of Alabama tho elections ru
turns woro known on tho day of elec
tion. It wan owing to tho Birmingham
Bioyclo club. Thirty members of this
organization wont to outlying districts.
whoro thero was neither railroad nor
tologrnph. They got tho returns from
theso sections and brought them into
Birmingham before the city voto thero
had been couutod. In ordor to do this,
thoy had to travol nn aggregate of over
1,000 miles. It wasnotover tho smooth
macadamized and asphalt paths that do-
light tho cyclist cither, but over rough
nud stony mountain roads.
It is -100 miles from Loudon to Ediu
burgh, yet skilled whoolmeu traveled
latoly tho entire round trip of 800 miles
in 2 days, 2 hours nnd 7 minutes. In
tho best days of coaching no fctago wul
over nblo to cover more than tho single
distanco of 400 miles between tho cities
in less than 43 hours and 23 miuutos.
Thus tho bicyclo rider niado nearly
twice as good tiiuo ns tho fastost sta;
coach ever did.
A quartor of n million bicyolos have
boon sold by dealors this year, it js cal

A (lueor flavor lias tho bill introduced
into tho United Statos sennto by Mr
Berry to provide a temporary form of
government for that portion of Indian
Territory occupied by tho live civilized
tribes. Under tho provisions of this bill
n now territory would bo temporarily
organized, called Indlanoln, with nil tho
officers usually appointed under ono of
our territorial governments. Tho bill
further provides that nt nny time tho
boundaries may bo changed by act of
congress without consont of tho peoplo
of tho now territory. When Indian Ter
ritory was set apart for our red men, it
was promised that the land should be
theirs forever without nny interference
by while men. But tho dosperHte'greeil
of white men has been encroaching lit
tle by little on tho land iu spite of the
sacred promise of fho United States gov
ernment. Bit by bit, by purchase ami
otherwise, thoir grounds lmvo been got
nway from tho tribes. If Senator Ber
ry's bill becomes law, it will bo the
prncticnl extinguishment of Indian Ter
ritory. Our Indian wards will then bo
, crowded closer to oxtiuotion than ever.

SUPERINTENDENT NOW ACCUSED.
: Js Claimed That Mr. Ilyrnos, While
Captain of 1'ollce, Accepted "1'roteo
tlon" llribes Tho Superintendent Denies
tho Allegation.
New Yohk, Deo. 20. Superintendent
Byrnes figured conspicuously in tho testi
mony of two witnesses boforo tho Lexow
commlttoo yestordny. John Mnrrctt, for
merly an ngent of the Society for tho Pre
vention of Crlmo, tcstlflod that Captain
uyrnes nan uuuuozeu mm, with throats
nnd force, Into divulging tho socrots of his
society, nnd had aftorward rclonted when
ho learned that tho witness was a brothor
Mason. Hattto Ross, n colored woman
who some years ngo conducted two disor
derly houses in this city, swore that she
paid "protection" money to wardmen un
der Captain Uyrnes, now suporlntondent
of police. Superintendent Byrnes donlos
tho allegations against him.
Sergeant Taylor, who on Tuesday last
testified that ho had turned over to
BIIPP-HTNTtNOENT BVr.NES.
Inspector Steers niouoys eolleete.l from
patrolmen which they had received from
steamboat ami railroad companies, swore
yesterday that Steers had accepted money
as bribes to permit tho policemen to re
main on their respective beats. Taylor
did not know what Steers did with tho
money, but to him It appeared that somo
of tho boodle was divided with somo ouo
elso. The sergeant also denied Steors'
statement that his testimony was folso
and had been given In spite.
Kx-Inspector Sjteors was in tho court
room. le announced a readiness to eo on
the stand and deny Taylor s accusations
Inspectors JfcAvoy, Williams and Mc
Laughlin wero subpoenaed to nppcnr bo
foro tbo committee.
Dr. Owen J. Ward reported that "Hon
est" John Martin, tho man who handled
Captain Crccden s 815,030, was too ill to
testify.
Counsel Clou announced that Thomas
Brodloy, formerly of tho Twenty-ninth
precinct, was retired ou half pay as a
roundsman, but Is now actlug as chief of
police atNorwulk, Conn. "Imorely wish,'
said Mr. Goff, to call nttentlon to tho po-
llco ponsion system, which Is absurd and
doscrving of tho attention of tho legisla
ture." Pollcemon Herman Interman sworo that
ho did not testify truthfully on Tuosday
when ho said that ho had uover paid over
any of tho nionoy given him by tho Amer
ican Steamship lino to his superior oillccrs,
Ho had glvon up half of his extra earnings
to Captain Gastlin, and then 25 out of ?10
a month to Captain bchmlttberger. In
terman also acknowledged that policemen
wore afraid to testify boforo tho Loxow
committee because they feared tho dis-
ploasuro of their superior ofllcors.
Sergeants Uyrne and Cornelius Hold, of
tho steamboat squad, tcstlflod that it was
liuprobablo that sergeant Taylor had sent
nionoy to Inspector btecrs in tho mannor
ho described boforo tho committee.
Captalu Allaire, commander of tho steam
boat sqund, donied all knowledgo of tho
collection of money from steamship and
railroad lines. Mr. Goff questioned him
long and earnestly, but Allaire's entire
testimony was a repudiation and denial of
all allegations mado against him by other
witnesses. Allaire said he owned a houso
valued at ??7,000, and had monoy in tho
bank not oxceodlug ?4,(XX). Tho captain
sworo that ho had always dono all In his
power to suppress gambling, disorderly
bouses and other crlmo In his precinct
Ho knew nothing of Sergeant Taylor's al
leged paymeut of money to Inspoctor
Steers. Humors had eomo to him that
policemen had Illicitly collected moneys
from citlzons, hut ho had positively for
bidden such doing.
Mr. Golt nttompted to draw various
statements from Allaire, hut foiled, and
tho witness left tho stand apparently well
Batlsucd.
Hattlo Hoss, colored, sworo that In 1879
sho opened two disorderly houses lu tho
Fifteenth precinct, bho paid Sou a mouth
as "protection" monoy for each houso to
Wardnion blavln. Captain Uyrnes, now
superintendent, was in command of tho
precinct at tho time, alio also paid sim
ilar sums of nionoy to wardmen under
Coptaln ISrocan, who succeeded Byrnos
Incidentally Hattlo testified that in eight
years Al Adams, a policy dealer, had vic
timized her out of 847,000. bho also ran
disorderly house in tho tendorloln district
when Captain MoAvoy was lu oommnnd,
but sho did not liavo to pay protection
nionoy thero.
Superintendent Byrnes heard of tho tos
tlniouy given against him by John Mar
rett a few mlnutos after that witness tes
tified. He immodlutely locked himself In
his ollloo at police headquarters, and for
an hour oxamlneil papers bearing on tho
mutter referred to by Murrott. Afterward
tho suporlntendunt said of Marrott: "AH
ho says is untrue except thut lie camo to
