SaTuRDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1897. eeepee WASHINGT ' (From our: Regular Correspondent. ) “WASHINGTON, D. u., Sept 3, ’97. It has always been considered the proper thing to make support of the National platform uf a po- litical varty the test of a man’s loyalty to his party. The plat- form 2dopted by 4 party ip Naticnal convention is the only authentic declaration of the prin- ciples of that party and 1ust be so considered until another National convention meets and adopts another platform. These facts are so self evident that wention of them seems almost unnecessary, yet cbjection is bsing raised because Democrats, are insisting that the platform adopted by the Chicago conven tion must be accepted as the privciples of the democratic party. To do anything else would be a radical departure from all nolitical precedents. There is a clash of authority in the Interior Department between Secretary Bliss and Indian Com- missioner Jones that may end in a big rowamong promuent Re- publican. Mr. Jones’ present assistant is Mr. Thomas P. Smith, who is a Democratic holdover. Mr. Smith has made a tip top record and Mr. Jones would like bim to romain in bis office. Boss Hauva directed sometime ago that one of his Onio proteges— Tawner, by name—who has beer | garvivg as the private secretary of Secretary Bliss, should be appointed Asst. Commissivner, acd the appointment was about ‘tobe made wnen Commissioner Jones heard about it and notified Secr+tary Bliss that he would not have ‘lawver for hia Assistant, hen there was a high old ‘ine in tue cflice of Secretary Bliss, and the relations between him and Commissioner Jones ate very much stained, but Tawn«r has not yet been appointed. Of course if Boss Hanna insists he will te, and if Jenes doesn’t hke it he cun resign. Itis a custom to consult the wishes of bureau chiefs in selecting their assistants, aad upon that custom Commis- sioner Jones } elies.

ETTER. dleaid: “Our farmers are this year blessed with ubundant crops ard the wheat producing coun- ‘|tries on the’ other side of the ocean have short crops. In other words, the demand for American wheot is almost grater than the supply; hence tha big which the speculators are just now getting. I amsorry to say that will not always continue, for next year the demand for wheat by reason of good crops On the other side may ba only normal, in that event our farmers will not receive any more for their wheat than formerly. Let the mints of the United States, &ngland, France and Germany be opeued tomorrow to silyer, and you would see the price of the white metal rise steadily until it reached ths level’of gold. Why would it rise? Simply because of the demand—just the same. as de- mand has raised the price of wheat.” Mr. Graffenreid ex- pressed hig opinion strongly of those who are constantly decry- ing the tour hundred willion standard silver dollars the coun- try now has, and ended an interesting chat by saying: ‘The Only solulion of the question is to open the mints to silver the some as gold. Permanent pros- perity will never come through the further contraction of tho currency, which the gold bogs are trying to bring about by discrediting our stacdara silver is More money. That will ba the issue in the next campaign, and, in my judgment, the dsmocrats will win upon 1t.” Mr, Juha Russell Youug, the new Librarian of Congress, is now having a hard wrestle witb the more than seyen thousand applicants and their friends, who were disappointed when he, this week, ennounced the appoint- rents to ten-of the best positions at his disposal.

It is not the facil- ity with which bills are made, but the ease with whick they are paid that indicates plenty of the wherewithal. It is by no means certain that this much buying is a good thing in the end. One mistake the people of this coun- try have maue already is buying toomuch.

The Railway Age says: “A Continuous railwey line across America, Asia and the continent of Europe was dreamed of long before Alaskan gold set people to planning railways to the Arctic circle. William Gilpin once governor of Calorado, elaborated the scheme of building a railway through British America and Alaska to Bering Straights to meet the then proposed “Russian Pacific railway,” and thus secure connection with the railway svs- tem of Europe. ‘The route across Russia shows on his map cor- responds in the main with that over which the Trans-Siberian line is now being conttructed aad the Alaska section as proposed was nO more impraciicabie than ‘Ithe road through the Klondike which arenow being so numer- ously constructed on paper. Meantime, although no railways are actually being built to Bering Strait from either side, the Trans- Siberian railway will in a few years be completed across Asia to the Pacitic at Vladivostok, and will have becc me a possibility. Saco The Philadelphia Times is not far wrong when it says that “the calendar and customs not- withstanding, the New Year be- ging not ip January, but in ‘September. Iu September, the schools start, the theatres open, libraries are once more pecpled with returned readers; art breaks from its chrysalis; music poises its wings for a new flight; the churches apply themselves with renewed yigor to the work of saving souls ;’ and so forth and so forth, and so on. It is even so. And down here merchants burnish up their stores, and cotton buyers hold their ears to the ground for the sound of the rumble of the first cotton wagon. People of all occupations prick up their ears with the advent of September, and it ia in a large sense the beginning of a new year.—Charlotte Observer. oo crease Cascarets stimulate liver, kidney and bowels.
