BLAND' S GSEA T TRIUMPH.
The victory for Mr. Bland in the
Missouri state convention was com-
.41-..
plele and decisive. At one time there
seemed to be a prospect that the
Cleveland element of the party, led by
ex-overnor Francis, would be able to
insert a silver straddle in tbe platform
in the shape of a reaffirmation of the
deliverance of the national convention
of 1892 on that question, but this
scheme was defeated by a large major
ity, and the platform, with the Bland
silver provision in it, was adopted by
an affirmative vote of more than three
fourths of the convention. : This oro-
vision demands the "free bimetallic
coinage of both gold aud silver, and
the restoration of the bimetallic stan
dard as it existed under our laws for
over eighty years prior to the demone
tization of the standard silver dollar in
1873." This has been Bland's position
from tbe beginning of his public ser
vice. It is true Bland made a con
cession in not insisting on coinage at
the 10 to 1 proportion,' tbns giving his
opponents a chance to say that the
question of ratio is left open, but the
framers of the silver plank took care
to render the concession of little value
to the ahli-free coiners. The provis
ion sets forth that "should it become
necessary, in order' to maintain the
two metals in circulation, to readjust
the ratio, it should be determined
whether gold has risen or silver has
fallen, or whether there should be a
change of the gold dollar or of the
silver dollar, or of both, to the end that
whatever ratio is adopted the rights of
both creditor and debtor shall be pre
served alike, having in view the de
mand's of the people for' an adequate
circulating medium' There is no aid
and comfort for the anti-silveriles in
Missouri . Guided by the spirit of
this pronouncement, the bulk of the
men who adopted the platform would
not be. long in reaching the conclusion
that gold has risen instead of silver
fallen, and that the proper way to
bring gold down to its old level is to
restore the 10 lo 1 "bimetallic standard

A Novel Screw Propeller.
An inventor claims to have discov
ered a perfect screw motion for steam
navigation. Heretofore engineers
nave used only two of the three
agencies required to constitute a per
fect screw motion, the revolving of
the screw and the angle of the thread
of the screw; the third agency,' the
push applied, is now added. No al
teration in the engine or hull of the
hip is required; it is to the part of
the shait that projects from the stern
of the ship that tbe new system is
applied. A thread is cut over the
shaft, a Casing is fitted, and a guide,
which runs in the thread, is attached
to the inside of the casing.
The screw is fixed to the casing.
and when the shuft turns the casing
alternates backward and forward,
and thus the third agency is applied.
The great point 'is that when the
screw comes forward toward the hull
there is no loss of energy. Hereto
fore a large proportion of the energy
I expended in turning a propeller is
iohi uy ute angle or me uiaaes 01 tne

see whether they Improve by the
change. When after all bis care they
die, he is almost inconsolable. The
plant may be the only one of its kind,
and perhaps another is unobtainable.
All he can do is to treasure up its por
