that ho cannot answer to the satisfaction of
tho voters. If lie so desired, it would have
required but a few minutes of tlio tlino
allotted him to answer tlio questions. Hut

that the Interrogations opened up his Inde
fensible record in an unenviable light before
the public.
Many of his hearers laughed up their
sleeves while he was endeavoring to prove to

coinage of silver, when they well knew he
was meicly a thiee-moiitbs convert for the

' J"r ' as well as Mi. Sliephcid, know that it
llls' not only be an embarrassing position
'?V.,v Democratic candidate, but would en
danger his chances of election materially.
The opinion of many of his lieaiers last night
-was that he acted the eowaul, and that the
texcuso otlcied wasa mere subterfuge, ill View
of the fact that he occupied the platform for
twenty minutes in loading oxtiacts from
speeches made by some ono else, without
offering a single proposition himself.
The Hon. W. II. Sowdcn, the gentleman
who essayed to act as Watson Sliephcid, has
been lead out of the Democratic party so often
that, not unlike Mr, Shepherd, ho can assume
almost any position on public questions.
There were three important interrogations,
.however, that even Mr. Sowden bteeicd clear
of, namely, thoso referring to tho attack of
thoSupieiue Court and tho proper respect for
tho law of tlio land. Xo Democratic orator,
outside or Altgeld himself, attempts to de
feud the Chicago platform on this question,

not.
Mr. Sowden had a poor respect for the In
telligence of his hearers when ho asserted
that silver was demonetized "i-ecrctly and
stealthily." The bill was considered by

approving tho semi-monthly pay law, of
which Mr. Davis, who was then a member of
the Legislature, was the father. This
law has been of great benellt to the
coal legion in general, as business
people, too, feel its beneficent effects
as well as the workiiigmen, for whoso benefit
it was primarily Intended. The Association

but their commeiidatlun of tho work of Mr.

the Immortal Lincoln says about that great
crime." Thero was a united howl and tlio
Hon. Pat. was hooted fioui the platform.

20 minutes duration in which ho briefly re
viewed tlio issues of tho day and then
introduced W. P. Shepherd, Lsq., of Potts

who prefaced his speech with tlio announce
ment that on account of tho illnoss of his
wife ho would mako his address short and
conllno his remarks to tlio monetary question,
which ho did. Ho studiously avoided all
reference to the series of , questions tho
llr.UAM) publicly put to him in Its issue last
niclit and confined himself to what ho called
a consideration of tho monetary question.
In tho carnostnoss of his address ho appar
ently forgot homo afflictions, but nt no time
did lie come within touch of tho Herald's
challenge. As a, matter of fact tho greater
part of his speech consisted of alloged quota
tions from speeches of Daniel Webster and
Henry Clay. lmo ho allowed himself to
drift towards tho line to which tho Herald
yesterday tried to draw him, hut he was like
the moth that, flickers about tlio candle

saying "There is no reason for discussing any
of the little flippant theories to simply sat

ELECTION OF MINE INSPECTORS.
Wo note with regret the resolution adopted
by tlio United Mine workers, In convention
assembled in Pottsvillo on Saturday, favor
ing tlio election of Mine Inspectors by
popular vote, the same as county olliceis are
now clecti d.
When the law creating thoollico of Mine
Inspeitor was passed, this subject was well
considered, and the consensus of opinion
among miners then was that tho law would
fail of its object if the otllco wero mado a
political one. After considerable discussion
the present mode of selecting tho Inspectors
was accepted as the best means of keeping
theso officials free and untranimeled, and to
ni iVe a change of the kind recommended
woiud not help matters, but .atbertend to
lower the dignity and UM l'ulnins ni the ollico
and open the Held to politicians, who would,
of necessity, re.soit to political methods to
olit.iin it.
It appears from the tone of the resolution
adopted that the present law, or the execution
of it, does not meet with the approval of the
United Mine Workers, but whether tho
organization fully represent the miners of
tlio region or not does not appear, but tho
passage of tho resolution referred to leads to
the belief tli.it tho question has not lieen dis
cussed aslully as its iuiportanco requires.
That present Inspectors have too largo ft
field lu superintend is apparent, and recog
nized by both tho Inspectors themselves and
the minus generally, and tho resolution to
restrict their duties to a certain number of
collieries appears to be a move in tho right
direction.
Wo do not believe, however, that such a
movement, namely, the election of Inspectors
by popular vote, will add to the safety of the
mm engaged in tho ery hazardous business
of mining coal. Itmorely places this most
important ollico in the hands of politicians.
As it is at present the ollico is open only to
men who call piove, in a sin ere examination,
ti.t tl,.. v noises the iiualilieatioiis nccossary.

(Shepherd's substitute! contention that it
was passed "seerttly and stealthily." I
The next statement by Mr. Sowden (Shop- j
i,..,i!'knli.stltnte) whs that the law of 173 !
MeiJionetUed silver." Wo still contend, ami
the speaker failed to disprove it, that it is im
possible to produce a single silver dollar that
wus ever demonetized by Cougtess. Tin at t
simply declared that hereafter the gold
lollr was to bo the legal unit of xulue,
which had practically been the ease since
1HS7, and that silver was to bo the subsidiary
-oiu for comiueieiul purpisies. The sihej
lollr w.s merely dropped from the list of
toins, liecause it was at that time practically
out of circulation. The law of P3 gave us
legal measure of value, thus protecting the
government from the masses of silver from
the mlues of the West.
Notwithstanding Mr. Sowdon's (Shepherd's
Hubntltuto) clap-trap and school-boy argu
ment about planting five cent pieces and
raising silver dollars, the government to-day
iia.vs out silver dollars to any one who will
take them, and receives them in payment of
taxes and other obligations, the same as it
4!ues tlio gold dollar. F.vory business mail
receives silver dollars in trade tlio samo as lie
sloes gold dollars, livery one knows this by

was a signal for merriment. He said, "I am
delighted to be confronted by such a large '
assemblage of anarchists." The audience
appieciated tho compllmcn'. and applauded
him vociferously. On second thought the
speaker said, "1 have never had a more mag.
uificent or intelligent assemblage than that
which confronts me now." Tlio reception of
tlio compliment may bo imagined. Lvery
tliing went, so long as it was Uryanisiii and
Mr. Sowden smiled as he discovered that
those whose visions had not penetrated tlio
anarchistic joko wero still in sympathy with
him. Mr. Sowden then proceeded to Impress
upon tho assemblage the argument that tho
ltepubliean party was seeking to reach the
footstool of tlio British government. The
greater part of his speech, which extended
over two hours, wason tliu monetary question.
After speaking some time Mr. Sowden took
up some questions propounded to W. 1".
Shepherd, Usq., the Democratic candidate for
Congress in tlio Herald's issue of last even
ing, and attempted to answer Cnur of them,
but left four of the most direct and important
queries without consideration, He said
Candidato Shepherd had the right to cliauge
from tho gold to the silver sUindard on the
principal tl ut tlio minority must succumb
to tho mnjuiity ; that the candidate endorsed
the gold standard at a state conventlou in
Allentown, but when found that the
national Democratic cunvlu,1ii turned down
tho theory Shepherd, too.Vjirned down his
views. Mr. Sowden also staud that the tiro-
tection and free trado quotation at the head
of tho Herald editorial column was not
correct and that more revenue by $31,0On,UO0
had been derived during the first year of tho
Wilson bill than the hist year of the Mc
Klnlcy bill. 3Ir. Sowden also said ho be
lieved that silver was demonetized secretly
and stealthily and said that James O. Ulaino
and Senator Vooi bees did not know it hsil
been done until their attention was called
to it.
Congressman Sowden failed to touch the
quostionbo u ing upon the plunk in theChicago
platform attai King the Supremo Couit and
that attacking President Cleveland for
inaintaiiig respect for tho law. He closed
his address by declaring that llryan was a
