Why. are they so tax- ious >io couilol KMlt; Ml the pM-piC, not by the utren^lh of tthn.r argument, but 8ty appeals to am vqpMinrtl na tional prejudice which has no relation whatever to the ranks of the present controversy? It Is bard ito risrt-pe the conclusion that tire men and newspa pers who are urging independent free oo'.ndlge by the United States know that their cause Is a wank one in the forum of reason, and are willing that the country shall suffer the oo*SK*joen«s of a grievous mistaike rather than that they themselvni (hull suffer a personal defeat A WEAK OAt’SE. tXlhe question of whether or not the mints of the t.'nUvd Stutes should he opened to the froe coin-age of silver Is engaging tho attention of our people ml mi wit to the exclusion of every other public question. In its essence, It Is not a question of polPtlcs. It Is t ques tion with which men who have taken the time or lead opportunity to fully Inform themselves are batter qualified to (Deal tham the mass of ttse people. lu other woods, It t« a scientific question. Nrrcrthcft’Ss. It Is * question an the solution of which the prosperity of the court ry very Vingely depends, and which must 4k> settled hy the vote* of the people. If the people make a mis take in answering it, the consequences to .them will be disastrous. It Is a question on which there Is a very rad. leal difference of opinion. Perhaps the people nre nearly equally d'V.ded upon ft. Under these dtvtOTVtiawt-N, h seems to us that the question should be dis cussed purely on It* merits; that news papers, whatever it-hrfr rlow, should endeavor to bring ^irils only to the at- tetffon of their readers, and arguments based on those facts, tn order that the verdict of the people may embody their calm Judgment. The Telegraph believes that tiu> free coinage of sliver, under rood' which would Insure the equal use of gold as well as s tiver as primary mootty, would lie of Immense benefit, not only to the people of the United Htates. but to those of the whole wortd, tin that tt would udKm.te exenjuae nud rr.jke trade freer. Bat while hoVHnfi this ophfon, the Telegraph sees nothing but hariii In free coinage by the United States alone, for the reason. that tt would result In giving Mils country a different etamland of value from those countries with which its oommeretal traMaeCtons are largest, thus malting exchanges difficult a.ad costtiy. While hokVug itits opinion firmly and eodranr- ortofi to establish its truth to the Inti of its ability, the Telegraph txis been careful not to appeal to prejudice with the hope of thereby strength suing Its oouse polltte-lly. It is sorry Ito see that In opponents are oot equally consider ate-sorry, heaiuae the otitnomo of the dispute Is not merely the question of whether the Telegraph or Its opponenlts shall trlnmph In the dlacainr.ou, but whtitoer tlie opinion of the American people on s question of the utmost 1m pomaoee shall be expressed Intelll geotiy. The chief offender against the rule which the Telegraph has laid down for Its own conduct has been the Atlanta Omerttutlon, wHIdi seems to have tost s'ght of everything except Its desire to w.n « partisan triumph. In tit* last Issue tt practloilly brands every man who differs with tit in opinion on tivo outremp- question as s ’Tory," lu the offensive sense in which shall word was used duetag the Rinvdotlotmry war. ’Hist '* to ssy, tt charges that overy man who believes 1hst tit would bo un wise for the United Stotra to enter upon the policy of free silver coinage Indo’mlomfiy Is not an American In sympathy, but an BngtUhnran. am.l .woriting In Who interest of the British government. In doing this, the nation only borrow* the methods of the Republican itoteetionlsts, with whom It was once tn sympathy. It will tie remembered What for year* the burden of -A tit argument was that any reduc tion of the tariff would be in the Inter- rtit of Orest Britain, and was desired only by those people In the United Statm who preferred the fnterest* Great Brittiln to those of the United States. At tits last election s major ity of the people of this country voted against the Republican policy of pro tection, and It follows, if there was any good jewed for thtir omerrlon. tlhat & majority of the people of the United States ere not Americans In sympathy, but Englishman!. TWs fact is enough to reduce Co absurdity the Republican claim. It 4s tnoonceivoftile shtat s mi Jorlty of American* are not Americans at elL The ReptibMcaas who made this ns- seetkm did not Mleve InttstnlUi. They were merely eppesttag to that nsUoml prejudice which they thought the dmmgeet. The same effort ie now be- log made to uae tbs prejudice againti Oraat Britain In support of tbs free St- v » cause. It to an erideuce of the ood cat A SERIOUS MISTAKE. (Mr. W. E. Cadis, of the staff of the Chicago Record, hats licen writing to his paper from Georgia a. series of in teresting letters. In one of these let ters he expresses bis wurpriso at find ing so many sound money men In this Sta te. It scents to him “as it nearly nil the business men of The state are supporting the president's financial pol icy and opposing the flreo coinage of silver." In the same latter he quotes tiio views of dipt. W. M. Hammond of Thomasvllle, Ga., to 1b© effect that there will .bedcvekipmenta In the next x months that will bring (together those of both parties (who agree on sound money and protection, not only here, but all over the country.” That Georgia will be tor sound money when the quod ion is thoroughly threshed out sal h«r people fully un- deiwtand Its merits, we have not the least doubt, but Chpt. (Hammond falls jn.to-,1 serious mistake when he a^sauiCs that sound monqy and iprrtwrtion go ♦nort her They do not either In the South or other parts of the country. In the South the men and newspapers who a few years ngo led In the at (tempt to commit the Domocrsluio party to the policy of protection are now lead ing in the attempt to commit It to the policy of unlimited tree coinage of oil ror. The same (Mitts Is true at the North and lu tlhe West The Chicago newspaper which during the past has been the champion of extreme protec tionism—the Inter Ocean, we mean—Is now the only Chicago newspaper, so far as we know, which is advocating Independent free oolnage. In the East for savcml graced: km*. the peilttclans Pemuytivania, without resard to flirty, hove been protest''onlats first, and Democrats, Whigs or Republicans afterwards. This Is no less true aupv llhan In the pist, and It Is therefore najiuret than, among nil the Eastern sen it ora, llwo only tirouM stand out its champions of the free coinage Idea, and those two the senators from Peimsyl (vauln. They, and the men and news papers in the South who ore working iwlth them, see tin the effects of khe free coinage of sSver some of a he same ef fects that a high tariff brings about, and for that reason they favor free coinage. They want trade obstructed. They want to make It difficult and ooritiy for ttij cit xen of the Unttad Smites to exchange wha t his tabor pro duces for the thing! wthkft he desires tint are produced by the labor of for- eignera When the aitustiloo develops fuither. the fact that free silver nod protection go together, not prottotton and sound money, w.til be patent to everybody, and in the long run the Democratic par ty WIN be rcoagnlaret ss the champion of sound money Just ns It bat been In the past.

THE BISMARCK DEMONSTRATION The Bismarck dnmontiralloo In Get- many seems to be about over, and Ger mans and foreigners may now take ae count of tt. It was In many respect* very renmfrlde. We doubt if at any fine or in any country any m«n hie rroexred so many evidences of the <-n- Ifaaatsstic admiration of Ms country- men as how Bismarck on tMs oocasion. Yet tt (a easy to believe that this item nnstrutlon had In K comparatively Uttle of the personal attachmert:. Indoid. Bismarck to not a man to gain the ef fect Ions of vast nurafaors of men. The very qualities which made him useful to his country In so eminent a degree were qualities which made kt inevitable tbti personally be ftnuVi tv unpopular with s large proportion of hla country men. The explanation of tbs demon stration tin his honor lies in the tingle fact ttsit It eras through him the king cberlahrd tap ration of the German people for national unity was achieved. The German Liberal and Socialist may bate the political policy which Bs- marek rapt era tits and -which be rath- lesaly rotor red while be bad the power to do so, hut they see Germans fast, and though they may life their polit ical enemy, thqy aura* refrain from honoring the asra who made Germany one and powerful. The German Cler ical la In a position not very differeot tt ary seem ho him that Bismarck, when chancellor, proved himself a ty rant In his ttreatmeil. of the Oatfcolh ctkurch, bat in Bismarck out of power he sees only the founder uf the German empire. It fk pfatn now that the re ch- stag, in refuting to puss s resolution tbsoktng Blstuarek for ids public ser vices, dd not reflect the feeling of the German people, tts refusal to poor the resolution no doubt added greatly to the fervor and extent of the national il-mc-nskragloo to his hraor.

Correspondence solicited. GEN. GORDON'S ADDRESS. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 3, 188*. To the Kx-Sollders and Saltan of the Confederate States of America: The convention of delegates from the different states which assembled in New Orleans, June 10, 1889, effected a general organization known as the United Confederate Veteran*. It to de signed as an awoclatlon of all bodies uf ex-Confederate veterans and sailors throughout the Union. The convention adopted a Constitution and did me the great honor of electing me genera! which position I -accept will peculiar grati fication. Preliminary to trie l»aue of any orders I wish to call general at tention to the OBJECTS OF THE ASSOCIATION, and to enlist In their accomplishment the active oo-operatlon of not only ever survivor of southern armies, but abaci that large con tingent of sons of veterans *bo, too young to un («-.„! ved the baptism of fire, have neeverthelere re ceived with you tbe baptism of suffer ing and sacrifice. The find article of tbe constitution of the association declares: "The object and purpose of this organisation wilt be strictly social, literary, historical, and benevolent. It will endeavor to unite In a general federation all asso ciations of die Confederate veterans, sollders and sailors now In existence or hereafter to be formed; to gather authentic data for an impartial history of the war between the (Kates; to I-re serve the rellaa or meenentoes of the same; to cherish the ties of friendship triad should exist (among th* men who bare shared common dungem, common suffering and privations; to care for tbe dtiakbfied oral extend * helping hand to the needy; to protect the widow and orphan and to rooks <ojm1 presti-ve (the record of the service* of every member, a* for as possible, of these i of our cararadra who have preceded us ! |n rurally." The toot (article provides that neither dtocussion of political or rellgoo* sub- : 1 is (1 . Uf political action khall be 1 permitted in the ocgnntoadoa and any association violating that provision •frail forfeit tits membership- GOOD OBJECTS. Comrades, no argsunent Is needed to secure for those objects your enthusiastic endorsement. They have burdened your thought* for many yeans, you have ctierlsiied them !s sorrow, poverty and humtH-uton, In the face of misconstruction you have held them In your hearts with the strength uf religious convictions. No mlsjudgmento con defeat your peaceful purposes foruhe future. Your a*p I ra tions leave bSt*b lifted by the mere force and urgency ol surrounding conditions to a plane far aboge bile paltry con sideration of partisan triumphs. The honor of the American republic, the just powers of trie federal government, the equal rights of states, the integrity of the constitutional union, live sanc tions of law and tbe enforcement of order have no class of defenders more true and devoted than the ex-ooldlers of the south and their worthy dtarend- tints. But you realize the great truth that a people without the memories of heroic suffering and sacrifices are A PpOPLE WITHOUT A HISTORY. To cherish such memories and recall euoti a pant, whether crowned with suc- ci-s or consecrated In defeat, to to Idealize principle and strengthen char acter, Intensify lova of country and convert d-ifeut and disaster Into pillars of tiipport tor future manhood an noble womanhood. Whether the southern .people under their changed conditions may ever hope to witness snootier clv- lllzatloi which shall equal that which began wltn their Washington xrol end- e-1 with their Lee. It !* certainly true that devotion to their glorious past to not only tlsi surest guarantes of future progress and the holiest bond of unity, but to also trie strongest claim they can present to the confidence and -epect of the other sections of the Union. NON-POLITICAL. In conclulon I beg to repeat. In sub stance at least, a few thoughts recently expressed bv me to die fimto ut-gar-l- Mtitlar which apply with equal force to this general brotherhood. It Is political In no sense except so far as the word "political” is a syno nym of the wVird "patriotic." It to a brotherhood over whlnh the genius of phllamrophy and -patriotism, of truth and of Justice will preside; of philan thropy, because It will succor the dis abled, help trie needy, strengthen the weak and cheer the disconsolate; of pa- trolttom. because It will cherish the past glories of the death Confederacy and transmute them Into living Inspira tions for future service to the living republic; of truth, because It will seek to gather and preserve a* witnesses for history the unimpeachable facts which shall doom falsehood to die that truth may live; of Justice, becausu it will cultivate national as well M south ern fraternity and will condemn narrow mlndednesa and prejudice and passion, and cultivate that broader, higher, no bler sentiment which would write on the grave ct every noldter who fell on either side: ‘Here lie* an American hero, a martyr to the right as his con science conceived It.” general organisation. I rejoice that a gei&ral awsnliatlon too lone ncilect«d ihn« h##n .it lut per- fected. It to a brotherhood which ell honorable tnea must approve and which heaven Itself will blrae. I call upon you therefore to organise In every stale and community where ex-Confederaies toy reside and rally to the support of “ifr e?d peaceful objects of the United Confederate Veterans, and move forward until by the power of organi zation and persistent effort your benefi cent and Christian purpose.) ere fully accomplished.
