If the houeet sentiment at the country waa in favor of the gold elandard, what neceaatty waa there for the banka and creditor* generally to purau* tbelr debtor* and threaten then' with rain if they did not vote for MoXinleyf Why did the manufacturer* throughout the country tell their employee* that they would eloee down their factories if Bryan were elected? Why were ten* of million* of money 4l*ed on the wide of the Republican und Cleveland Democrat* if they intuudeu r to allow the people to decide the oonteat without bribery and corruption? They cannot excune theimtelve* by saying that tlieir opponent* were doing the aame thing, because they knew from the beginning that their op];>ouetita were the common people and hid no money to corrupt voter*. They rnttwl at the poverty of the loyal Democrat*, the silver Republican* and the Populist* during the entire campaign. Still they poured out their million*, which they knew were !<> he used for no other pur

They denounce tbe slightest discussion of tlie financial question by tbe representative* of the people, uml at tbe »ntu*» time they are ootiatantly calling caucuses and confer* once* to disruM how they may educate tbe people to tbe belief that the dearer the money grows tin* more prosper! ty | will eilst in the country. If they want Jbc/ agitation to atop, why are they j Impending auch vast autua of money to | distribute what they call “sound uion* j »y" literature and hiring editor* to do j oount'e tbe people for complaining of hard times? If tbe advocate* of more money and low misery won cru*he«l be* j Death the heel of goldbug oppression, a* i tbe gold organ* claim, and the stiver j question la really killed, why are they | laboring an vigorously to kill it after it j is dead? If they are *uch IJoo* a* they t claim to be and the common people a* 1 helpless victim* a* they contend, why ! do they fear them? Tbe picture they j draw ot their superior power and tbe helpless conditio* of those who voted for Bt*yan make* the condition of the two parties tintilar to the act of the Hon In devouring a flock of *b»*ep and complaining that bis victims struggled in the agonies of death while being oateu. We admit that gold monopoly ha* got the count. We do not know how much it ooa*. but we tell them that the Americau people are not lamba and , that they had better take warning and not try to comipt another election with their utinumbcmi millions. — tiilvar Knight Oat of Jotul.

It was at a caucus held ou the night of Feb i that these gentlemen reported the result of their labors, which was adopted after a loug session. Some opposition was mail© to the measure, particularly by representatives from Lagrange and Steuben counties, and fur some d».y* it was doubted whether the constitutional majority could be secured for its passage in the house. This test came on Wednesday, Feb. 10, after the caucus had the night previous determined to udhere to the bill as at first offered. No rot© in the bouse hud been watched with u» greet iutenet up to the time the 1 iw Was put ud its passage, and it was to avoid an exciting scene that the roil wus called. Mr. Butler was the ouly Republican who voted against it. defending his action on the ground that it was unsatisfactory to his constituents and that his first duty '••■vs to them.
