Inrlicts great suffering on their recipi¬

“The Democrats, ” says Mr. Harrity,
-‘cannot temporize with a question of
die finances. They must, declare for
sound money, and there is not the slight-
cst doubt that their plank in the nation¬
al platform will be sound and explicit,”
Tin y must declare, as did the la-t na¬

the silver dollar. “In the name of ev¬
erything that is sane and honest and
politic, ” asks the New York World,
“liow can the Doraocratic party now do
anything except make its platform clear
and explicit for sound money?” With a
silver plank pledging the party to free
coinage, or, what weald be more detest¬
able, an evasive platform, read one way
in one section and another way in au-
other, no matter who was nominated,
overwhelming defeat would be certain
and sure, and it w onld bo defeat with
little hope of resurrection, as it would
involve Lasting division of tlie party.—
