THE INTERNATIONAL HUMBUG. An effort will be made to, get the free silver delegates at the Chicago convention to recede from the , de mand for,, the free and unlimited coinage of silver and . accept a ' conditional declaration some thing ' similar to that adopted at St. Louis, that is a decla ration for the free coinage of silver dti International . agreement with a oledee to endeavor to bring about such 'agreement.. This is the plan that Mr. Whitney has in contempla tibn, and is outlined in the, peculiar ntatform-adoDted bv. Ihe New York State Democratic convention, wntcn bears the earmarks of being the joint production of Mr.: Whitney and Sena tor Hill. Possibly Mr. Whitney may believe, as he says, that international bimetallism is one of the things at tainable in the near future, .but while we would not like, to accuse ;him of xa deliberate aftempt to de ceive the! delegates from the free sil ver States who go. to Chicago, we have too much respect for his intel ligence to believe that he believes it. There; certainly are very few people in this country who keep up with the current of events in this and in European countries who place any confidence in the probability of the .restoration of. silver byinternational -agreement anv time in the near fuT ture. It will come some day be causeJt will some day be a necessity, but it' will not come until the hecest sisted. ' i ' Four years ago there might possi bly have beea a few Americans who so .much' admired the single gold standard as to be opposed to biinet allism, but if so. they were 'so few, had so little to say and attracted so little attention, that no. organ voiced their sentiments and no convention recognized them. Then the two vgreat parties professed devotion to bimetallism which was declared to be I the established policy of this Government, and both parties in . their platforms virtually' pledged themselves to the consummation of this---blmetiHism by, international agreement - and - if that could not be! attained then by such independent action as the conditions migm suggest, .Bimetallism was a - distinctive feature in both the Dein- ocratic and Republican national piatiorms. 4. nose platforms were good enough then but they are not good enough now, for the gold men have made a long stride in the di rection of gold monometallism since then, such a long stride that they openly proclaim bimetallism a delu sion and a snare, which might have been good enough for our fore xatners Dut is, as tar as we are con cerned, simply a reminiscence:' As a rule the party organs do -not say this, but .a few of them are candid enough, and bold enough to" say so, but the financial organs which represent the money interests,' and - are not held in restraint by the fear of the effect their utterances might have onk thij or that party, speak boldly and more candidly voice the . sentiments of the power which they represent. . The following, which we cup iromtne wew x or z financial ChronicUi shows what they think of bimetallism and also that they do not want it and would not have it if they could get - it. We quote ' the article in full because it gives their position aEnd the reasons for it, thus: The declarations in favor of bimetal- . Him by political parties at , the present .time are not in conformity with the logic of events. The word may please those who iavor a middle ground be- - tween gold and silver, but the assump tion that bimetallism is even remotely practical is ill-founded. ; ' : s The Brussels conference held recently could not bring itself to suggest a proper ratio between gold and stiver. Since its session the .expressed hope of the con ference that the cause rested largely .on the action of the Great Powers has re ceived a set back in the unequivocal an wr nl the British Chancellor of Ex- chequor, and there has been nothing in the policy oi uerman v 10 icnu enouuwuc- menTto the iaea. ine declaration m mo dominant Doluical party ot the United States, hinging,s. it does, on an inter national agreement, thus loses us iorce and effectiveness. .7:."..-:..:. ' Ideal bimetallism is an impossioiiiiy. There never can be two sanaaras 01, value, an? more than there can be two standards of yard sticks, and when it w recalted-ttaat tndre is not a silver stann- ard country in the" world to-aay using gold as money alone witn us suver, nu aim that there is not a gold standard country which does not use silver, based on a gold parity, iurmer tviocnco am needed to show that an international re adjustment is almost altogether out of the question. V : " - But there are other -reasons which should be taken into account in discus sing the question of bimetallism. The enormous accumulations of gold by the EuroDean banks, amounting at the pre sent time to nearly two thousand million dollars, the increase since 1890 being al most eight hundred millions, is an indi cation that there is no crying necessity for an addition to the metallic currency of the world. These banks are not 'hoarding" this gold in the accepted sense of the term. It forms the bss s 01 their note ; circulation, and eliminating that percentage which might be caueu war chest" reserve, it is found that tne circulation of the great foreign banks is. not much more than the volume ot re serve in hand. In other words, their cir culation could be very much increased without lessening the proportion of security- which has always been ac cepted as a eats limit. .The only reason why this circulation is not increased is because there is no demand for it. The enormous increase in the stork nf the cold of the world during the past several years, an in crease that promises to continue moen- nitely. affords another reason against dilution of the world's money through the rehabilitation of silver, since tne very thing which bimetallists are striving for is being brought about in anotner manner. It Is, perhaps; a sad outy 10 abandon a cherished theory, cut eacn day makes more apparent the truth that bimetallism is losing its iorce as an ar gument; pr rather the conditions nave so changed the affairs of men and na tions as to render superfluous the work of those who cling to the hope that an international agreement with reference to silver coinage is not only desirable but feasible. This is not simply the utterance of a paper, but of a paper which speaks as the representative of the power which Is now working so hard and persistently to maintain the gold standard and to destroy silver as a money metal. We say destroy silver for that is substantially what this article- "means when it, refers to the increase of gold holdings in Euro pean banks, and calls attention to the fact, as alleged, that gold prom ises to become so abundant as to make it practicable to dispense with silver altogether, save, perhaps, for the convenience of making change. The Republican party platform makers have tried to humbug silver Republicans with the,, fake of inter national agreement, -and the gold standard Democrats will, if they can get their work into. . the Chicago platform; try the same thing, with the -full knowledge that there isn't the slightest probability of anything of that kind in the near future, and with the further knowledge'that the leaders of the gold standard in this and other countries' do not want it and will not have it if they can pre vent it. ' . MIS OK MENTION. '. " , ' The meeting of Republicans, re- gaidlessof race, to protest against the nomination of-D. L. Russell for Goyernor, will be held in Raleigh to morrow.- The following, which we cup from the call, gives the reasons why it has been made and why the signers, and those for whom they speak, protest .against the nomina tion, and would regard as a calamity to the State the election of the man who claims the nomination: Whereas, the- fraudulent nomination of Daniel L. Russell for Governor of North Carolina a man who has pro claimed to the world that Negroes are largely savages, that all negroes follow rascals, and steal six days in the week and go to church on "Sundays and pray it oH, that non-property holders should not under any circumstances exercise the full privilege of citizenship; and be cause he foments racial strife and there by jeopardizes our educational progress by subordinating all to corrupt politics and politicians. Leaving out of question the meth ods pursued in the nomination, whether it was secured honestly or by fraud, or the opinions that the candidate who' is now an applicant fpr the votes of colored men may have entertained - and expressed . tn the past, or may now entertain as to the negro race, there is one good and solid reason herein assigned why be should not be placed in ihe hon ored and responsible position of Governor , of North - Caro lina. "He foments racial : strife," these colored signers say, "and thereby jeopardizes our educa tional progress : (and material; pro gress as well, they might 'have added) by subordinating all toxor- rupt politics and politicians' A true arraignment, and in strict ac- eoraance witn tne record ot tne can - didate. The man who occupies the t r 't xT-.i. Una should be a broad-gauge patriot above mere personal ambition, or personal ' resentments. He should carry no grievances to avenge into that office, nor malice towards any. The man should ' be merged' into the Governor, the- representative of tne wnoie people and tne trusted guardian of their Welfare. It would be an unhappy day for North Caro lina, for her white and black people alike, wen the "fomenter of racial strife" had the wand of power placed in his hands. ; The SoundMoney League, which has its headquarters - in New York, has spent a good deal of money in Carrying on the campaign of educa tion, and is now making an appeal through its organs for more money topush-ihe work. The committer. in special charge of this work appre ciated the alue of the newspaper as an "educator" and a means of reach-, insr the people and henceOhey played the newspapers and especially J the rural brethren for all there was in them, as we learn from the follow ing, clipped from 'the New York Journal of Commerceand ' Commercial Bulletin 'X.xXXC::-X. t The committee ' began its operation about a year and a half agorby issuing twice a month a tract on some "branch nt the monev Question under the serial headine.of "Sound Currency." Some of the numbers were of a popular char acter and were distributed In y ary great numbers, bat the greater part aimed to supply the more intelligent iqairers after knowledge on the- currency qaes-. tion with the results of our, experience, and that of other countries. . -But a few months later, when the m vrtr DcrUation became more aggressive, the Sound Currency Committee respited additional ana more cttectuai m ans of reachinsr ths masses ot the people: ShMii nnnted with sound curre cc lit erature on one side and general rtaJing ot. the other were prepared and torwara ed to the'eountry newspapers that would use them ss supplements. A still more effective measure has been to send ste- reotvoe olates of sound currency litera ture and cartoons to, papers that would insert them in their ordinary issues. - The committee found several hundred newsoaoer j anxious to get sound curren cy literature in both cf these forms, and so far ss its means permitted it has sup plied these newspapers for months with this matter. Sound currency literature has been carried directly to thousands of voteis week after week, and carried in the one form in which it was certain to be read, in the usual weekly newspaper, not one line of which escapes the attention of the subscriber and his entire' family. If the resources of the committee had been larger far more ef fective work could have been done in this way. It is surprising how thoroughly and effectively the committee got sound currency literature into the homes of the oeoDle in the Southern and Western States where the cheap money clamor is loudest. This is a very important work; it ought not to be checked for a day, and we trust that the friends of sound cur rency will see that the committee has the means of contismeg and even ex panding its singularly well managed work of enlightenment." There were a number of these New York edited papers in North Caro lina which supplied their readers. with regular daily or weekly instal ments of this "sound money" pabu lum dished up by the New York edi tors. This was a sort of a fraud per- oetrated UDon their readers, but it was a cheap way of running a news - paper and we suppose this, aside from their desire to boost "sound money, eased their consciences, i CURRENT COMMENT.

New York Tribune. of THE SCOTCH-IRISH,: Prominence of This Strain of Blood la the ' i Paces ot American History. ' -In a paper read before the Massa chusetts Historical society Mr. Sam uel S. Green, librarian of the Worces ter Free library, has ; called " atten tion to the singular degree in whioh the Scratch-Irish have illustrated in America certain pTorailing traits of oharaoter and genius. Indeed the most careless reader of our national annals must often,, in lighting on the. fact that suoh men as Patrick Henry; Jay, Fnlton, Jackson, Cal houn, Perry, Greeley, ? Morse, Sam Houston and no end of others were all of this descent,, have raised in wonder the question, Has anybody ever done Anything who was not Scotch-Irish?'' Mr. Green's paper makes one raise this question anew. . For centuries the Sootoh were iso lated in their own Barren andjmoun tainous country. Tlien, when large numbers of them were, colonized in the north of Ireland, they were kept equally isolated by position and're- ligion. In this way they piled up and set in adamant certain fixed and salient characteristics. Hard strug gles to eke put a living had made them - shrewd and canny. Hard struggles with fate had .made them heroio and indomitable. - Their home, whether in Scotland or the north of Ireland, was' a grand place to get starved in and so. be forced to emi grate. , So all over Europe they, be came known ; as brave and ready witted adventurers. Tne Scotch-archers, the Scotch guardsmen describod by Walter Scott in "Quentin Dur ward, " are the same class' of men as the Swiss (papal guards. In the wars of Spain with Holland and Belgium the Scotch linesmen proved a full match for-thvi terrible Spanish in fantry, , while under Gustavus the Sootoh pikemen won European re nown. ' Sore beset in the north of Ireland by hard times, failures of crops and hostile legislation on the part of England against their material suc cess early in 1700 the Scotch-Irish began to emigrate to America. Such 'settlements in New Hampshire as Dublin and Londonderry show them in the north. But soon they were everywhere. Pennsylvania, Mary landVirginia, the Carolinas, Geor gia, found in them their leaders in every enterprise. Of the tide of immi gration into Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, they were al ways in the van, fond of frontier life, great Indian fighters and then equally ready to turn into -successful farmers or manufacturers. Light on a Daniel Boone, and one may be sure without consulting a biograph ical dictionary that he was Scotch Irish. But al5ys-they carried ideas with them, immense believers that they were in schools, churches, de bating societies, political clubs and in religious freedom. Here, then, was just the environ ment in whieh to develop a Patrick Henry, himself but the highest ci est of flame in a furnace that wa burn ing in the breasts of all his kindred Here, again, just the environment in which to breed a Witherspoon, who, when the congress faltered whether to adopt and promulgate the 'Decla ration of Independence, rose in his place and declared that "as his gray head must soon bow to the fate of all, he preferred that it should go by the ax of the executioner rather than that the cause of independence should not prevail." Equally when the battles of the Revolution came, what a list of generals the Scotch- Irish furnished Knox, Sullivan, Clinton, Howard, Campbell.Pickens, Morgan, Mad Anthony Wayne, all as resolved as Stark at Bennington to win before night or make . Molly Stark a widow. Equally in the war of 1812, Jack son at New Orleans, Millar at Lun-a dy 's Lane and Perry on Lake Erie were the three who did most to add luster to the country. And the same record holds true of the "great edu cators, inventors and divines of the land. Strong in body and strong in mind, self regulated in character, yet fiery in passion, here, was a strain of blood as- telling in its impress on the manhood of the country as the importation of the Arabian stock on the racers, hunters' and cavalry horses of England.
