He charged that the senate substitute contained the initial movement to- ward the perpetuation of the national debt. “Such unqualified, unblushing re- pudiation of legislative obligations,” he said, “had not been proposed in It was in plain violation of the constitution, which provides that each state shall make gold and silver coin legal ten- der, not gold or silver coin.” He challenged anybody to say how the bill would benefit the great pro- ducing classes, although, he said, it was easy to realize that the measure would be largely beneficial to the holder of accumulated wealth. In discussing the senate substitute Mr. Cockrell asserted that the legal tender quality of the standard silver dollar was taken away absolutely as to treasury notes and the greenbacks. Its legal tender quality was nullified absolutely. Smiling and addressing Senators Aldrich and Allison, Mr Cockrell exclaimed: “You can’tshake your heads at that.” Mr. Coekrell, discussing the meth- ods provided in the substitute for maintaining the gold reserve and the parity of various moneys issued by the United States, asked if it was possible that a republican executive would permit a gold standard secre- tary of the treasury to go into the market and buy gold with United States notes at such price as he might deem in the circumstances proper. That, he declared, was an auction sale of United States notes.

Bridgeport, Conn., Feb. 7.—William Jennings Bryan said last night after the close of his New England cam- paign, during which he hasaddressed 45,000 people in eighteen cities: “The meetings have been gratifying because they show the growth of democratic sentiment. The trend of public opinion is away from the re- publican party, and I believe that each month will emphasize this oppo- sition. The old men contrast the re- publican party of today with the republican party of Lincoln's day, and ean bat note the difference. The young men see the field of opportuni- ty narrowing, and they realize that republican politics are continually adding to the advantages of aggre- gated wealth and lessening thechance of the young man who has only his brains and his muscle to rely upon. It requires more than the hope of a perpetual clerkship to stimulate the young man to the highest endeavor.” For the Weak and Aged.

This was s iirst assassination ; | bel was the second. The door of the house where Sharp posed position of Goebel’s assassin, was actually fired from the old Sharp house, since the hole in Goebel’s back was clean cut and that in his breast ragged, as if the former might hav Sharp wasa member of the new! court party and had just been elected a representative. He answered a loud knock on his | door and was seized by a strong man and stabbed to death, falling on the street from his door steps. The assassin escaped and for w the deed was charged to his political enemies. When the political excite- ment somewhat died down the de- tectives arrested J. O.

The we- man died but Beauchamp’s life had not gone out when the time for the execution approached, and at the de- mand of the excited citizens he was hanged, although mortally wounded by his own hand.
