Of an the raeu who figured In the City contention the one who the moat capital wus Hon. James D. Richardson of Tennessee, tho house lender of Democrats. Sydney Smith once said.

He made many friends. As a member of the house, I Um proud of his performance, because the only function permitted to a repre? sentative In congress at Philadelphia I when the senatorial eabal which the Republican convention let Hon. mo H. Payne move to adjourn nine 4lle Blchardsou added to his fame at Kansas City both as nn orator and a presiding officer.

Colonel Uooscvelt Is not only both a voluminous writer and voluble speaker, 1 but is also an omnivorous reader. Whether during any of his incursions into history and literature ho ever read Louis Napoleon's famous speech to the chamber of e inmerco of Itordenux, Get. 0, 18?1? the speech containing the Imperial maxim Just quoted I do not know; but. If he never petUiOd that remarkable oration, he, by a strange concatenation Of events and mental processes, performed the most astound lug piece of paralleling both thought and expression to be found in the an? nals of oratory. In his speech before the National League of Republican Clubs Colonel Hoosevelt earnestly enjoins his coun? trymen to "remember that expansion does not bring war; It ultimately ! brings i>oace." "The empire Is i>eaco!" asseverates t '?> dreaming, scheming, ambitious son oi Ilortenae. "Expansion ultimately brings peace!" echoes the dreaming, scheming, ambitious governor-colonel of New York. Two lovely berries, molded on one stem, the stem of imperialism; twin statesmen reveling in Iridescent dreams of peace? peace to be obtained by a quantum auffielt of throat cut? ting and bloodletting?the identical sort of peace which reigned in War? saw on a memorable occasion and which "damned to cverlustlng fame" the men who secured It by sword and Are. Thf Kmplrr Is Blood. Now, be it remembered that I am not accusing Colonel Roosevelt of plagiar? izing from Napoleon III. 1 would not, even in the estimation of u hair, de? tract from his just fame, but one of two things is true?either be had read Louis Napoleon's Bordeaux speech and l?oldly appropriated or unconsciously assimilated both his ideas and his lan? guage or the exigencies of the ease compelled Colonel Roosevelt to use the same argument in favor of his im? perialism as the French emperor used In defense of his imperialism. I like epigrams. "Tho ompire is peace" is a splendid, sonorous, striking sentence. It appeals to the imagina? tion, it soothes the troubled spirit, but it was a lie when uttered by the wily Frenchman. It Is a lie today, and it never can bt the truth. The entire history of Louis Napo? leon's lawdry, tinsel empire demon? strates the utter falseness and hollow ness of his terse epigram, "The empire la peace." It begun in blood; it flour? ished in blood; it perished iu blood. The coup d'etat, which ;;avo it birth, was one of the bloodiest and most mon? strous crimes recorded li tho tiles of time nud brought death, imprisonment and exile to nearly every Frenchman of that generation at all worthy of ro inombrnneo. Instead of bringing peace to Franco tho empiro brought the unprecedented humiliation of Mot/, and the awful ca tnstrophe of Sedan. It suit Louis Na? poleon himself to die an exile at Chis? el hurst and his son to die In South Af? rica, I soldier of fortune, fighting sav? age Zulus under the cross of St. Ceorge In the service of that country which had caged the great Napoleon like a savage beu i ujsui the sallen rock of St. Helena. That's the sort of peaee which Louis Napoleon's empire brought to France. Tbc Money (location. We stand today on the money ques? tion precisely where we stood four years ago. Truth does not change to falsehood in four short years. The men who wrote the Chicago platform had the courage of their eonvictious, and they have had no reason to change their conclusions since. Consequently at Kansas* City we re udopted. not merely reaffirmed, but re adoptcd. the flna. '-ial plank of *the Chicago plutform in all its integrity and all its force, in spite of all cajol Ings. all thrcatcuings and all tempta? tions to do otherwise. From the bot? tom of my heart 1 rejoice that we did so. for If we were right then WC are right now. Individuallv 1 have no doubt what ever that, notwithstanding the rcceut unfriendly congTMalOBal legislation, not only Aniorca. but the whole world, will MM return to bimetallism under an Impuls.? of Mil preservation so strong that it cannot be reflated. The fact that the per capita volume of circulation has increased in the last three years grows out of the accident that the balance of trade has been overwhelmingly in our favor, which happy condition was and is purely the result of the failure of erops in India and of tho abundance here. I nder normal condition*, good crops in the old World and good crops at home, the balance of trade will, as in I he past, |m- against us. and as soon as that happen* the drain of gold Will begin, and contraction* Will follow. While the I democratic party has not changed it- p wit Ion nlncc iv?;. the Re puhii? an party ha* chnngw] It* po*l< lion lad.' ally. In 1*41*1 it declared for International bimetallism At Phila? delphia ;i dhoti time ago it pronounced for the gold atandard In nil Its ImId lt<?** and badllcMS. N"t only that, bill the latest ||< publican plutfoi m states what is positively untrue wherein it reaffirms its nllcgltiticc to the gold standard. WUetl, I a matter of fllct, it never had declared for the gold standard before, Mfeewattaaal Maaetattlaaa? ig a matte!- of fact, the itdiulnlatrn lion never made an lione*t effort tu Meura International bimetallism. The Woieott commission that was gala* ranting over Burnt*' would have se? cured International bltm lallli m If It had not been hamstrung by I he udmlti latration. They wer?' progressing with imaging rapidity in thai direction and had gained the consent of the Batik of Knglund when Lyman J, Cage, the aecretary of the treasury, destroyed thai? good works by an interview de? claring that neither the president nor tho people of the United States wanted bimetallism. The financial bill pasted by this con? gress is tbo most monstrous measure ever placed on the statute l>ooks. It Is sometlines called Ihe Ovcretreet bill, but it should be called the "Atlantic City bill," because it was concocted there iu vacation by a coterie of Re? publican magnates In secret conclave. in my mind Atlantic City is the poor? est place in America to ascertain the settled sober sense or conviction of the American people. That bill not only established the gold standard, which the Republican party never promised, but it retired the greenbacks, and let me say that if the Republican party had promised to retire the greenbacks there never would have been a Republican con? gress to enact such a law, and there would not have been a Republican president to sign such a measure, I will not argue the greenback ques? tion. I have simply this to say: There never has been a war waged by our country in which the greenback did not give us the victory, and if the greenbacks were good enough money in the civil war to Induce men to leave their homes, their wives and little children to risk their lives on a thou? sand battlefields in defense of their country, then it ought to be good enough money to pay gentlemen who make their living by reclining in the shade of Wall street, clipping gold coupons off coin bonds. If the green? backs are not good money, then, as a natter of common honesty, we owe it to the old soldiers to pass a law even at this late day paying them the dif? ference between gold and greenbacks from 1861 to 1885. Republicans Have Changed. By that Atlantic City bill congress abdicated the paramount function of government, the money making func? tion, and turned it over to an associa? tion of national bankers, a function too vast and too dangerous to be given to any citizen or corporation. That bill broadens tho money question nnd puts it on the high plane on which Andrew Jackson fought Nicholas Bid die and the old Rank of the United States, and. as he conquered in the thirties, so will we conquer under the leadership of the great Nebraskan. I repeat that while we maintain our position of 1880 in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of gold aud sil? ver at the historic ratio of Id to 1 with? out waiting for the consent of any oth? er nation on earth, the Republicans have changed theirs and changed it radically. 1 do not have to make assertions or quote Democrats to show that we are right on the money question. I will quote you a Republican of the highest degree. Certainly Republicans gut to believe each other, for nobody else will believe them. My Republican witness says: "I nn. for the largest use of silver in the cur? rency of this country. I would not dishonor it. I would give it equal credit and honor with gold. I would make no discrimination. I would util? ize both metals as money and discredit neither. I want th:? double standard." These be potent words. They wero fitly spoken and are like apples of gold in pictures of silver. They are clear und unmistakable In their meaning. Now. my Republican friends, you who are engaged in the condemned business of worshiping the golden calf, what orator and statesman do you suppose made thai forcible declaration In fa? vor of silver which 1 have just quoted? It wasn't Silver Dick Bland?Ood bless him! It wasn't William J, Bryan, the peerless leader of the Democratic hosts, it was no Democrat, no Popu? list. It was a man whom you delight to honor. Don't all fall off your seats in a tit of apoplexy when I tell you his name. It was the head man of the Republican pic counter. William Mc? Kinley, president of the United states, and DOW running for re-election on u gold standard platform after signing a gold standard bill. He is the man who said it. He said it on the lloor of the American congress. It is so printed in The Record. You can't deny it. He can't deny it. Those words were spo? ken by William McKinley, your Idol, with front of brass and feet of clay, spoken by him while he was yet free and before he had fallen under the malign ItttluotlCC of Mark Jianna aud bis foul crew of political buccaneers. What's more. McKinley In addition to speaking In favor of silver voted for It and voted for it repeatedly. He voted for the original Rland silver bill, which was a bill for the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at lb to 1. He voted for the Rland bill with the Allison amendments, and when Uutherfraiid 11. I laves vetoed the Bland-Allison bill William McKin? ley voted to pass it over the Hayes veto, which was the noblest act of his PUblle eateef. Iu passing it may be proper to state another fact, which I slated on the floor of v digress In a full house, which nolssly denied then and which nobody will deny now. and that Is that Wil? liam It, Allison, senior and perpetual Republican senator front Iowa, is the first American statesman that ever it sde n free silver speeeh.

Crepe do chine and bciigaUne are among the favorite summer materials. They come in all the bright and delicate TAILORED COsTUME. colors and are of double width. Few fabrics are more charming than these, which have just enough wool In them to render the folds soft and pliable with? out, a tendency to crush and become stringy. The illustration shows a costume of gray cloth. The tablier of the skirt is covered with tine braiding, and there are pointed tabs at tbe top, with orna? mental stitching. Tbe tight bodice has a braided plastron at the back and front, while over the shoulders are three stitch? ed bands, forming a sort of triple pele? rine. Bach band has a single button, nnd one fastens the stitched collar. The belt Is also stitched and secured at the back by buttons. The hat of ticelle horsehair braid is trimmed with the same braid and with cocjuillcs of lace aiul tulle, while at the left side are two black plumes. JVDIO Cnoi.i.et. He Knew Where.
