The Silver Craze.

Just now the South and West is afiame
with the silver craze, and the “coin” lit-
erature which hasbeen scattered broad-
cast throughout those sections is some-
what responsible for theirfurore. To
the politicians this craze is troublesome.
Already it has made a breach in the
Democratic party which will not heal,

 

 

while the Republican managers would
prefer that the question were well out
of sight. The word “free” in connec-
tion with this question is what takes.
The average American likes the word
“free” in most any relation, but pre—
ferably with a lunch or a railroad pass ;
and so the word “free" catches many
who have an idea that free coinage
would not keep those who have nothing
It must be admitted that the

free coinage advocates are showing more

to sell.

enterprise in booming their cause than
the gold bugs, whose arguments may
be sound but lack the ad captandum
element that the others put forth.

The silver men demand 16 to 1 or
nothing thereby discrediting their
cause in the eyes of those who desire
an abundance of money, but who have
sense enough to see that money must
have value per se or else it will depre-
These theorists forget that
money is apeculiar substance and that

ciate.

the poorer sort will always drive out
the more valuable. In 1853 the silver
dollar was ‘worth more than the gold
dollar and silver was boarded instead
of gold. If the free silver men carry
their pOint the country will go on a
silver basis and we will be short of our-
rency,._becausc the gold will be boarded
or sent abroad, for the two metals will
not circulate side by side unless they
have an actual parity of values. If the
country could be put on a silver basis
it would be of great advantage to the
mine owners of the West as it would
give them an immense market for their
wares.

Unless this question is settled before
the next presidential election it‘assures
a Republican president, as the democ-
racy will run two candidates, the sound
money wing with Grover Cleveland as
its candidate, and the silver men with

idle American Young Men.
Just before the New York city April
Grand Jury was discharged in the Gen-
eral Sessions yesterday, Joseph Loth,
a manufacturer, who was Juror No. 2,

stepped up to the railing and said :

“Your Honor, while I have been act-
ing as a Grand Juror I have noticed
that the majority of the offenders in-
dicted were young men Of American
birth. I ]think this is a matter to which
the attention of the community should

be called. There are too many young

men unemployed who are on the streets,
and I think it would be a good idea. for
the state to build industrial schools so
that these young men might be taught
trades, instead of enlarging its prisons.
It appears to me that there are alto-
gether too many young men with no
means of employment who idle away
their time.”

The Recorder said that he agreed
with Mr. Loth. ‘

The late Thurlow Weed in his life-
time, expressed the belief that just this
condition as to idleness among our
young men, Would surely result from

the modern exclus1on of so many boys

from learning trades. He said it would
fill the streets, the saloons and reform-
atoriea’ani prisons with young men
rendered viscious because rigorously
prevented from learning} trades.

A Patriotic American.

“Whatever your politics, be Ameri-

' cans first of all” was the patriotic ’in-

junction of that sturdy American ,Arch-
bishop Ireland, to a BostOn.audience.

' Archbishop Ireland is one of the most
patriotic of the clerical celebrities of
the Republic. This latest public utter;
ance was before a. Boston audience on
Saturday night last. The distinguish-
ed prelate then admonishedliis hearers

in this wise: “Whatever your politics,

- be Americans first of all.”

Sons of the Revolution Meet.
The sixth annual congress of the
Sons of the American Revolution took
place In the Old South Meeting House,
Boston, yesterday. The attendance
was large and the greatest enthusiasm

- prevailed.

General Horace Porter, president
general of the society, spoke Of the
work that has been accomplished by
the National Society since its organiza-
tion in the way of securing legislation
fOr the preservation of historic records,
marking the graves of Revolutionary
soldiers, erecting monuments on battle
fields, 850.

There are now thirty—one State socie-
ties with the following membership in
those namedz—Connecticut, 800; Massa-
chusetts, 630; New York, 563; District
of Columbia, 414; Minnesota, 353; Illi-
nois, 340; New Jersey, 292; Vermont,
232; Maine, 209; Montana, 21; Utah, 20.
Among the notable additions of the
year are the two great-grandsons of
Lafayette, Gaston de Salume Lafayette
and Paul de Salume, who have become
members of the Massachusetts society.
To the Maine scciety has been added
the Indian Chief Sopiel Salmore, whose
father died recently at the age of 100
years.

A Discovery.

A few days since Superintendent of
sewers, D. S. Curtis with his assistants,
commenced work near what is known
as the Captain Lamb lot on Main street.
for the purpose of placing in a sanitary
condition the drain which runs through
the lot. It was thought that a new
sewer would be necessitated as the old
drain placed there over fifty years
since failed to carry off the water, and
which would cause considerable ex-
pense to the city.

In the process of the work a fortunate
discovery was made, which was that
the entire trouble was found to be
caused by a Street Railway pole which
had been planted directly in the ditch
causing the same to become clogged up
and useless.

The Street Railway company was nO-.
tified and this morning had a gang of
men at work changing the position of
the pole, and the city will be saved con-
siderable expense, as the changes anti-
cipated will not now be required.

The Last Call.

The walls of Buckingham Post, G.
A. R, headquarters are covered with
neatly-framed pictures of war scenes
and departed heroes. A splendid addi-
tion to the same was made last night
through the generosity of Colonel Sam-
uel Daskam. Itis a picture painted by
Prof. J. J. Vaughan, and is entitled
“The Last. Call. ” It represents a bugler
on a. horse, both of whom have received
mortal Wounds. In the distance a bat-
tle is raging. The picture which is
about 4 feet by 6 feet, is nicely framed
and is very realistic. The Post appoint-
ed a committee to draft suitable resolu-
tions of thanks to the donor. A poem
by Mr. Vaughan entitled “The Last
Call,” is by no means a small portion
of the beauties of the picture.

New Gun Club.

A gun club consisting of twenty-five
members was organized last night.
All, or nearly all, are members of the
Naromake Fish and Gun club. It was
decided to establish the range on
grounds in close proxim1ty to the Greg-
ory’s Point hotel, and the range will be
fitted out with everything that goes for
the convenience and necessities of a.
gun club. Mr. E. O. Drake was elect-
ed president; Walter Lewis, secretary ;
Fred. Lockwood, assistant secretary,
and James Sutherland, treasurer.

FAKIRS vs. EGGS.

New Canaanites Give the Jewelry
Fakirs a Warm Reception.

SKlpped Town and ‘Forgot Their
I Landlord.

On Monday two men arrived in town
and going to the City Hotel at South
N orwalk registered as Frank Jones and
Charles L. Price, of New York. Tues-
day night they drove to this city in one
of Solman’s open barouche’s drawn by a
pair of white horses. Stopping in front
of the Norwalk hotel one of them be-
gan to gather a crowd, and in a loud
voice offered to sell a. dollar for fifty
cents etc.

He made several sales of coin and
then the money making stopped and he
sold several small articles for a quarter
and gave a present of half a dollar to
the purchaser.

Business was not good and the two
fakirs drove away promising to appear
again last night.’

As th’e newspapers exposed their little
game they did not keep their engage-
ment last night, but instead took the
barouche from the City Hotel and
drove to New Canaan where they ex
pected to do a thriving business.

In this, hoWever, they were doomed
to disappointment although they did,
as driver Selleck says, make several
sales.

:Arriving at New Canaan they opened
up in much the same way as they did
here. They had hardly started In to
do their money act when they met with
a. volley of sick eggs looted from an in-
cubator. Eggs t) the right of them.
Eggs to the left of them, » began to fall
upon them like hailstones. They stood
the avalanche of bad eggs until after
driver Selleck received one and one of
the fakirs got another in the car, when
not relishing bad eggs they beat a hasty

and the barouche having an odor that
was anything but pleasant.

They arrived at South Norwalk with-
out further adventure, but in their
denforalized condition they forgot to
return to the City Hotel and see Laud-
lord Hall, who is a loser by their sud-
den departure.

As they reached Solman’s stable
shortly after nice they had plenty of
time to settle their board bill, but as
they failed to do so it is quite likely
that they took the first train out of
town.

One of the gang had a. badly cut
head which behad received at the
hands of a crowd while plying their
swindling operations in Pennsylvania.

It is thought that one of them is
named Thomas P. Kelly, as a letter so
addressed arrived at the hotel last
night. If this be the case they are
both traveling under assumed names.

A PLOT AGAINST HAWAII.

It Is Believed to Be Hatching hi the
Vicinity of Port Townsend.

Pon'r TOWNSEND, Wash, May 2. -—Pollce
circles here Were startled recently by the
receipt of a letter from McEvoy, the chief
of the secret service at Honolulu, inquir-
ing whether or not a plot was being hatcheg
in this vicinity, the ultimate end of whic
was to overthrow the government at Hu-
Wall.

The receipt of the letter brought the in.
formation that one of the secret service
men of the ‘ islands has been here three
Weeks, not only watching Port Townsend,
but Port Angcles and Whidby island.

Enough. has been ascertained to prove
beyond question that some mysterious
things have been going on which point to
an expedition such as the Honolulu chief
fears. The agent believes that he has dis-
covered somc of the conspirators' plans.
He stated that he has been working on the
case and has learned that there have been
several secret meetings held in the vicinity
of Port Townsend. Tho conspirators have
gone far toward completing their work, as
is evidenced by several facts learned. One
is that up sound dealers in guns and ain-
munition have had unusual rifle sales dur-
ing the last month.

It is evident that the guns are stored
somewhere near ham or in the hold of
some speedy vessel. Several schooners
have been sold of late at different up sound
ports, and two are somewhere hidden in
the sound, though report has it that they
are outside Cape Flattery.

The police have lately been watching ,a
man who is well known in Honolulu, one
Simpson, who arrived a few weeks ago.
He is known to be a rebel conspirator, but
has now been lost track of. It is believed
that he is at the bottom of the conspiracy.
