that popular song , a line of which runs ,
"Oh , go on , you're only fooling. " While
there are many occasions In which such a

IndianapolIs Journal : Senator Teller has
made a brave fight , but the truth is. the
more the comnionsenso persOll considers the
proposition to favor a class of men already
rich by coining fifty odd cents' worth of
silver into a dollar and thus making them
millionaires the less lie will sympathize with
the Colorado statesman.
Kansas City Star : Such a parting , even
if there was some affectation in the sadness -
ness , Is better for the whole country than a
parting filled with anger and bitter words
and fierce denunciation. Such a separation
implies a feeling of respect by each party
for the other , If that admirable spirit can
be carried into the campaign , It will greatly
help men in arriving at right conclusions
atiti in voting Intelligently.
Chicago l'ost : But the martyr's devotion
to his faith is no proof that his faith is
sound. Fanaticism is proof of the fanatic's
sincerity , but it is no proof of the justice
of his cause. Mr. Teller in the evening of
his life has fallen a victim to a great delu-
slon , and the ardor with which he has espoused -
poused it only demonstrates its power for
evil , Ills fellow republican leaders deserve
all the more credit for resisting the mistaken -
taken appeals of one whose past services
they applaud and whose character they es-
teem. In the iresenco of ills overwhelming
discomfiture they can effort ! to be generous
and to wish llim years enough to see the
falsification of his gloomy prophecies.
Chicago Journal : It is most natural that
the silver republicans should feel deeply
distressed at the thought of leaving the
party. They have fought loyally under its
banners and have become attached to. Its
name. Their leader , Senator Teller , is one
of its pioneers. As he himself said , he had
assisted in securing the nomination of IAn-
coin , had supported lilni In the campaign ,
and had been identified with republicanism
ever since. But the difference of opinion on
tlio question of policy anti principle is a
vital one. There has been too much of
compronilso already , and the small ( action
of silverites ought never to bare supposed
that it could contlnuo to dictate to the great
majority of the party. The Idea was pre-
posterous. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
