THE democrat!) are now trying to
carry the campaign on by the anti
silver men howling for GrovcrClcve
land for president ami the free sil
ver men are howling for Boies o
Iowa, for vice president. If that
isn't stradling the silver plank
do not know what is.
p.issito nf n uieiiMiie iliat is thus
profitable ti that part of the
country. The democratic it. embers
were all in ;heir seats and were
uger to vote fi r it. Mr. lloltnan
made a perfunctory opposition to
some of it features, but it went
through, nevei theless, by a major
ity of 120. The smith demanded its
passage, and what the south de
mands she always gets when the
emocratic pi rty has the power to
give it to tier.
1 his is onlv a portion, nowever.e
the appropriations made and to be
made by the preset house. The
total to date, with the additions
that are unavoidable, is at least
$:0,lHiO,tKXI in excess of the amount
appropriated at the fust session of
the last republican congress.
These figures thoroughly refute the
democratic pretenses ot economy,
and show that not a cent is to be
left in the treasury if the house can
have its way. Every democratic
member has a job of some kind in
the interest of his district, and the
aggregate of such schemes is tin
precedenled in all the history of the
government.

THE SILVER CONFERENCE.
The consent of Great Britian to
irticipate in the conference ren
ders it highly probable that Ger-
many also will accept the invitation.
There lias been no reason to doubt
that France and the other nations
of the Latin Union would accept the
invitation and join with the United
States in an earnest effort to settle
thevexed quest ion. Their difliculty
has all the time been that they could
not afford to adopt a monetary sys
tem antagonistic to that of Great
Britain and Germany, even with the
support of the United States. But
f all the great commercial nations
could unite upon any plan, so that
the intercuts of some would no
longer be sacrificed for the benefit
of others, a monetary adjustment
for the whole world might be
reached. It is in the highest degree
creditable to the administration that
it has taken the initiative in the
matter with such success. The sil
ver producing states will assuredly
be brought to realise that, while the
idministration can ant and will not
assent to free coinage of silver by
the United States alone, throwing
upon the country all the responsi
bilities, risks nnd sacrifices of an ef
fort to strengthen and broaden the
monetary system of the civilized
world, it is neTcrtheless ready and
anxious to do all that can be done
in conjunction with other nations
to correct the evils which have
grown out of the disuse of silver.

Tho new African gold fields are prov

was prophesied about ono year ago that
tho output of the V ltwatersrandj dig
gings would reach 70,01)0 ounces m D;
cember, 191, and ono year later 110,001
ounces. Already tho first prophecy ha;
been liorno out, the average being about
7.1.000 ounces a month. It is a warm
thought and not unpleasant still, that
when tho latest reports from Natal were
written, from which tho facts almvo
wero taken, and when tho people of this
country were shivering beforo tho blasts
of winter, Natal was simply scorchirg
under a temperature, of 120 (legs, in the
shade, a figure which was reached on
several occasions during Christmas
week. All trade was abandoned, tho
people lieing content to exist without
exertion in such nn awful heat. Pitts

Needs (if a I'liyslcliin.
Tho physician needs more mental di
version. It would lie well for him to cul
tivate flowers, to study some science, or
some department of history, literature
or art, or to take up some snnplo mechan
ical occupation, to which ho could turn
from time to time for refreslunent.
He needs more active exercise. It
would be well for him oftener to sub
stitnte the bicycle for tho carriage. Ho
needs more sleep, too fully seven hours
and as his sleep is often broken in upon
at night, he should form the habit of
sleeping at odd moments, even by day.
