BILL ARP S LETTER-
Silver and gold. I wish .hat I did
understand it, I have said so much
about bimettallism and demonetizing
j ai.d free coinage and the Sherman i suing ore to the minis and melt and
to l:ake, but everbud will hav
silver. IJless tLe Lord ! We will
run every mine lo its full capacity
day and night, and we will open a
tin uand rew ones and ship the
act and the purchase of bullion and
what Uongress should do and should
not do that it all make- my head
dwin and I lose confidence in Mr
Cleveland and Mr. Carlisle and every
') dy else. The whole thing s ems
to be in a tangle. Have we no reat
statesmen. m great financiers to back
up to? Are the editors of the papers
to box the thing about forever and
ever and keep the people in a quan
dary ? Is partisan politics- to eur.-e
the country while it is" siitfcriug ''roin
a financial panic thai is paralyzing
every industry and creating a general
distiust. There is not a republican
paper but what wi uld rather ihedem
ocrats would make a blunder than to
bring re ief. They are a heartless
set the!e po.iticians. They are ev
erlast.ingly mnchiuing around to
keep in otlije or to get in and the
democrats are nearly as b id as the
republicans. I have heard so much
in the last two week -4 about mach ne
politics that I :r.n sick. 1 never con
ceived how man bargains and trades
tiad to be male to get an ollice; huw
many traps and triggers and how the
patronage and spoils and perquisilies
had to bii divided out to suit the con
gressmen ami kepp them in orlice.
Not all the cangresmep, of course,
fur thank heaven we have some there
who have no machine and who would
not fear to have every act of their po
litical life laid open to the people,
bul with some of them a public llice
is a private trust. They say, "Tuis
is my otlice. I worked for it, I stoop
ed for it, lied for it, and I'm going to
make all I can out of it." It has
been that way always I reckon and
we can't help it, but 1 do wish we
had some great state? men like there
used to bo some, great thinkers and
leaders like Colhoun and Webster
and Dewit Clinton of the olden times.
1 wish that we had Justice hick
son wes in coneress. for I do believe
that a man who could untangle the
Central Ualroad as quickly as he d'd
could untangle all this money bus1
ness and tell the country what to do
to restore conlidencee. That is all
that is wanted they sa'. Confidence !
I want some myself. Confidence is
a plant of slow groth in a aged bos
om. My old fnend Cicero Strong
told me the other day that the way to
settle the trouble was to lake the
100,000,000 of reserved gold that was
in the treasury and use it, for it had
been there for years and j-enrs doing
no good and they might just as well
fill up the bags with ir.m or lead or
copper and nobody would ever know
the difference, for it is never counted
but is weighed twice a year- It could
be fixed up in the night by the treas
urer and one or two men to help.
"What is the use of the gold being
locked up so long when it is needed
ho bad ?" "Maybe that's been done
already," said I. -Mayoe the gold
isn't there, but it is ouly bags of
lead." ,Mabe them republicans
did change it," said Cicero, and he
looked solemn, like he. Wo, had lost
confidence.
During the last great political ex
citement when the people's party was
cavorting around, a little preacher
pver in East Tennessee recanted a
wagon body at a justice court ground
and haraugued the boys on the silver
question. Free siivet !" he cried
Free silver I" lilessed be the pros-j
mold and stamp and tium ship it all
over the county by carload, and when
our share iets here we will load it in
wagons and drive out on every road,
and as the wagons move along we
will shovel it out ami scatter it far
and w.de. and even the women and
children will get Mime, bless the
Lord ! Free silver; come quickly
and buy without price, dm ye of little
faith, and the people said "amen."
That wasn't much worse thai a
speech that I heard George Francis
Train make at Rochester about twen
ty years Jigo. He grew sublimely
eloquent 'about the government issu
ing millions and billions an( tril
lions and quintnllions of paper mon
ey and lending everybody just as
much us they warned.-' "Keep the
paper mills running day and night
and ttie printing machines, and let
the bright, new bills flood the land
and then-1 will h ive a pocketful and
feel like a iieutlemau, and my cotin
1T3' iViend will h-tve hi saddle .bans
full, and that good woman wi 1 have
her apron full and we - will build
docks and canals and railroads and
meeting houses and ships and fac
tories and even body will have plenty
to do at bin prices, and the poor will
become rich and those who are now
rich will become poor, for their old
fashioned "money will be good no
more, and we will all be hapP3r as if
the millennium had come." j

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
'Hold on Train," said one of his
hearers; "hold on a minute." "What's
the matter?"- said Train. "Wouldn't
the whole thing collapse and burst
up after a while ?" said his hearer.
Train looked at him with st)veri;ni
contempt, and said : "Why, 4f
course, it would; any fool might
know that. There would be an aw
ful bust up, but all these hotels and
canals and railroads and factories
wouldn't bust up they would be
there. Don't you see ?"
There is some truth in all this, even
if a fool did sav it. Gr to Decatur

The stay-at-homes of the National

There is an essence of go-as you

for it is dcubtlecs found in the fact
that many officials are obliged to

The prolonged illness of Justice
Blatchford made his death not unex
pected, ami there is consequently lu
tle gossip over his successor. The
names of both Secretaries Greshani
and Carlisle are mentioned, but it
can be stated with considerable as
surance that the place will not be
offered to either. Ex-Minister
Phelps of Vermont is also promin
ently me'utioned as a possible can
didate, and so are Frederick C. Coud
dn, and James C, Carter, who is the
associate of Phelps as Unile I States
counsel in tlie Bering Sea contro-
verss.
Justice Blatchford has been at the
bar or on the bench for oyer
years, and brought the
Court a rich experience which uayc
him distinction as a member of the
tribunal. He was a man. of ma y
friendships, and possessed of the
puolic ccnfi lenee to a lemarkable de
gree, That he was a good man and
a righteous judge is the best epitaph
that can be written of him.

Gold and silver will fight the great
est b-ittle in all their coinage exis
tence when the xtra sesion of Con-?
gress settles down to work, and only
the most optimistic of the silver men
gather much confidence out of the
conditions as they now appear. The
advocates cf the gold rea'ize the ex
tent of their advantages and arc
bound to havs financial matters ad
justed on their iines. m That the Sher
man law will be entirely repealed is
not at all likely, although some f the
more advanced silver men may en
deavor to bring thit to qass. Un
conditional repeal would leave the
Bland law on top, and as tbe Sher
man law causes money to be issued
on a gold basis, while the Bland. law
coins siiver a9 silver, the situation j
states note which would be on a par
with the note of the Bank of Eng
land could not be but a satisfactory
plan and would do away with the
present form of having five different
kinds of paper money. The plan in
question contemplates an entire
change in the money system of the
United States, and calls for the re
demption of all the yarious forms of
money now used in this country. The
new note will be redeemable in "coin"
