CANNOT SUPPORT THE 'BOY ORATOR' Ila Advises All Voters of Bla Party to Vote For the McKlnley Electors In the Present Grave Crisis The Supreme Duty of the Hour. The venerable Charles A. Dana, tho dis tinguished odltor of tho Now York Sun, rcfusos now, whon socialism and anarchy threaten tho wolfnro of tho people, to sup port tho so called Democratic party, pro cisoly as in 1801 ho refused to support It when It threatened tho solidarity of tho Union. Ho then becamo a war Democrat! was appointed by President Lincoln assis tant secretary of war, In which position ho rendered Inestimably valuoblo servlca to tho country. Now ho is an honost, sound monoy Democrat, and as such, himself tho staunchost of Domocrats, udvlsos all voters of his party to vote for tho McKlnley elec tors. Tho following, which appears ns a signed odltorlal In tho Now York Sun, speaks for ltsolf : Somo pcrsdnal rosponso scorns to bo duo to tho numerous frionds who havo sought from mo nn expression of my Individual opinion ns to tho duty in tho present po litical campaign of thoso who adhere to tho principles which hitherto hnvo char acterized tho Democratic iurty. Tho declaration of notions adopted In tho namo of tho Democracy by tho Chicago convention Is for tho most part so. hostilo to tho doctrines which hnvo provnllod In tho Democratic party in tho past, as to de mand Its rejection by all thoso who would not abandon tho Democracy's essential Ideas und liOHt traditions. Tho Chicago platform invites us to es tablish a currency which will enable a man to pny his debts with half as much property as ho would havo to uso in order to pay them now. This proposition is dis honest. I do not say that all tho advo cator of tho freo colnngo of silver aro dis honest. Thousands of them, millions, If there bo so many, aro doubtloss honest In intention. Dut I am unablo to reconcile with any ideal of Integrity a change In tho law which will permit a man who has borrowed a hundred ilollurB to pay his dobt with a hundred dollar.?, each one of which Is worth only half as much as each dollar ho recolvcd from tho lender. Tho Chicago platform sanctions the usa of tho appointing power of tho president in such a way as to control tho federal judiciary in deciding questions of consti tutional law. It contemplates a change in tho personnel of tho supremo court of the United Stutcs, to tho end that tho re cent decision doclarlng tho Income tax un constitutional may bo revoked. Straugo times, Indeed, are thoso, when a man is told that, in order to bo a Democrat, ho must favor tho Imposition of an Income tax and tho destruction of tho indepoud enco of tho judiciary I Still more alarming is tho clearly Im plied approval of lawless violence- con tained In tho denunciation of what Is denominated in tho platform "govern ment bydnjuuctlon." Veiled in tho lan guage of moderation, tho wild light of anarchy shlnos through. In my opinion, without revlowlng tho Chicago platform further, tho declarations In regard to tho currency, tho supremo court, and tho income tax, and tho repres sion of forcible lawlessness by tho aid of Injunctions, aro enough to demand its re jection by all good cltltens 'and tho defeat of tho candidates who eirtud upon lb I regret exceedingly to Und a disposition quite prevalent to urruy the' west against tho east in the discussion of thoso matter. I see no occasion for iuaklngmr differ ences sectional. Horo there is no oqUjical hostility toward tho west, such a i ex pressed toward the east by somo western newspapers and public speakers. Good citizens can perhaps best aid tho cause ofi honest money and law and order by de voting more time to rational argument and less to Inefficient abuso. All questions relating to the tariff havo becomo Insignificant for the time being, In view of tho possibility, however slight, that tho abhorrent principles of tho Chi cago platform may provull. Tho duty and tho necessity to compass tho final over throw of that platform by assisting In tho defeat of William J. Uryun are most Im perative and solemn, This may mostJcer talnly bo accomplished by voting fcaf the electors plodgcd to tho support of Wftllum MoKlnley, but I have no quarrel w t any Doinocrat who adopts any other loursu which seoins to him equally woll lapted or better adapted to the same end.' in At if-..- t by ATTORNEY- igo.

Ho got as far as Centre and Jardiu streets nnd there fell rrom exhaustion. Ho was found at 3:30 yesterday morning by Policeman Lee nnd Comtnblo liulin nnd taken to tho lockup. It was first thought to ho a plain caso of drunk, hut after invostlga. tlun at tho lockup tho ulhccrs found the man was sullcring from wounds niul they sum moned Dr. w. N.

"Jako" Glllespio is ono of the most popula men on tho Lakeside Electric Itailway, Dur ing tho day aud early evening hours "Hello, Jake," or some similar salutation, Is repeated by men, women and children passed by his car and tho latch strinis hangs out at ovcry door iu tho patches for him. His amiable disposition 1ms made him a great favorite, but there are times when "Jako" is placed under very trying circumstances and ho cannot bo as courteous as mut peoplo find him. Such was tho caso yesterday. Tho conductor was obliged to temporarily leave his dinner can and collccta fate. When he returned n Lithuanian had upset tho can and scattered tho contents. "Why did you do that?" asked tho conductor. "Scat for people to sit; no placo for can," was tho Lithuanian's answer aud Gillespie was so much provoked by the spoiling of his dinner as well as tho oU'endcr's impudcuco that ho momentarily forgot himself and struck tho Lithuanian In tho mouth, Tho Utter has siuco applied tu Justice Lawlor for a warrant for Gillespie's arrest aud it is said tho caso will como up to-night. People who wero on tho car aro in full sympathy with tho con ductor nnd say that tho Lithuanian was the real offender, ns ho was the only occupant of tho seat on which the conductor temporarily left tho dinner can and there was no occasion for his act. Tho caso led to an exaggerated report In which tho conductor was alleged to have beaten an unotlending passenger. Lost, on Saturday, a rir of gold plated cyo glasses.
