Though the advocates of free silver
coinage have 'been making a little more
noise of late than they ever have made
before, there are many reasons to be
lieve that the silver mania has reached
its climax, and that it has been a de
clining fad for some months past, says
the Kansas City Star. The latest evl
dence in the case is the interview ol
one of the new Kansas congressmen,
Mr. W. A. Calderhead, which was
printed In the Star yesterday. Mr. Cal
derheod declares that the only people
in Kansas who are radically in favor
of free and unlimited coinage of silver
are a few Populists, and that be told
the people of his district during the
last campaign that he would not vote
for free coinage until the time should
arrive when a silver dollar would be
as good as any other dollar in the mar.
kets of the world. A man who was
elected to congress on such a declara
tion while timid politicians, overesti
mating the strength of the free silver
sentiment, were hedging on the ques
tion, and giving expression to meaning
less phrases intended to catch the votes
of the sllverltes, is' more competent to
Judge of the sentiment of Kansans
than anyone else, and Mr. Calderhead's
opinion is therefore of value. It will
be recalled that when Luclen Baker
was elected senator from Kansas, no
one asked him what were his senti
ments respecting silver. The public has
not yet been definitely informed,
though the general opinion is that Sen
ator Baker is against free Bllver coin
age. A few politicians, and a few
newspapers with Popullstio tendencies,
wasted time and space on the advocacy
of sliver in the last campaign, but, gen
erally speaking, the question was not
an Issue in the election. It Is generally
conceded that the free silver majority
in the house of representatives van
ished before congress adjourned, and
It Is almost safe to predict that the
sliver men will be powerless in the next
house. Congressman Tarsncy's letter
on the subjoct, which the Star prlntod
a stv'rt time ago, and Speaker Crisp's
complete change pf front, are evidences
of the losses which the sllverltes have
suffered. Significant changes have
taken place In newspaper circles. The
recent sale and suspension of the Chi
c&go times Is another evldonoe that the
silver craxe is dying out. The Chicago
Times has 'been a persistent free coin
ago advocate. The Loulsvllle-Courler
Journal, and the St. Louis Itepubllc
were at one time strong supporters of
tke free sliver cause. They are at
strongly against it now. Dozens of
other significant events and circum
stances may be cited as evidences that
the erase for free sliver Is on the wane,
and that It has caused more disturb
ance in business and In politics than It
will ever cause again.
The Bailey Oatzert has the honor of
having brought down the most dlBtln
gulshed party of strangers who ever
visited Astoria. As (Mr. L. B. Sceley
remarked on the way down to the Jetty,
there was more brains and money on
the decks of the little Manzanlta yes
ter than was ever before assembled on
a vessel In the Columbia river. It was.
Indeed, a splendid company of repre
sentative American statesmen, Jurists,
lawyers, and business men, and It Is
fortunate that the weather was so pro
pitious, and such a fine opportunity
was presented to examine and appre
ciate Astoria's matchless and com
manding location. Senator Thurston,
who, by the way, la recognised all over
the middle west as one of the country's
greatest orators and leading statesmen,
was especially delighted with what
sniv end heard about our magnificent
harljor, and prospective commercial Im
portance, and Is not likely to forget
It when he comes to take his scat In
the next session of the senate. Ex-
Senator Saunders, of Montana, who Is
mid to be one of Messrs. Bonner and
Hammond's attorneys, and is Just now
prominent as the leader of the sound
money sentiment in tils state, was an
other of the visitors who was profuse
In his expressions of admiration and
praise of Astoria's advantages and fu
ture outlook. Altogether the excursion
ir.uy ibe set down as the very best and
most promising advertisement our city
hai ever yet received.
What business wants Is to. be let
alone. It caa get along with the poor
est implements, with a radically de
fective money system, with anything
and everything rather than constant
agitation. Prohibitory tariffs or free-
trade schedules are less obnoxious than
duties which may alternate from day
to day. And therefore It Is that the
course of congress, Which was threat
ening dally to lay its hands on the mosl
fit llcate and sensitive agencies in bust
ress life and turn them from their pur
pose, was S3 destructive. Not what It
did, but what it might do, was the
nightmare of the business world. Now,
for nine months, we shall have stable
conditions. The tariff, the currency,
cannot be altered in that time. A
man may make a contract and know
that the terms of It will remain un
changed for a year. It is a simple
thing that business asks; only to be
let alone. It will haw that privilege
at least for a little while.
In the form of the provision for an
International monetary congress, this
country is to be represented by nine
commissioners three appointed by the
president, tliree elected by the senate,
and three by the house. The silver men
fancy they have done something of a
brilliant nature, but they are mistaken
The free coinage of silver under the
circumstances Is one Impossible foolery
and the purchase of silver upon any
pretense by the government is another.
The cheapness of silver is because the
metal has been overproduced. We are I
already (balancing that by an unparal
leled production of gold. All we hav
to do Is to let silver alone, and that is
what the conference will do, except the
use of many words.
Mr. Greaham's truculent cable mee
sage to the Spanish government is ri
diculous when considered in connection
with his cowardly and vacillating
course with other and more powerful
nations. His demand for an immediate
apology for the reported firing upor
one of our merchantmen In the Carlb
bean Sea by one of Spain's puny cruis
ers, is all the more absurd Blnce thai
government assured the state depart
ment, through its minister at Wash
Ington, several days ago, that the mat
er was under strict investigation and
prompt reparation would be offered I
he report turned out to be true.
In Europe at this time eight grea
thlp canals are under consideration
If decided on, their cost will be ovei
MOO, 000,000. The JIM shares of the Sue:
?anal are now worth 1583.50, and
through the Manchester canal In Eng
land 3,000 vessels passed last year. Yet
Democratic administration and con
gross in this country have decided that
It would be "Injudicious" to extend tht
aid of our government's credit to the
onst ruction of a canal of greater mar;
time consequence than all the proposed
European ditches put together. Is it
any wonder there is a blight upon tht
business of the country T
The timid and confusing replies made

impossible to handle his net, has he ever stopped
to think, should it become caught on a snag, what
i brand of twine would stand the greatest strain?
Did he ever ask his brother fishermen what sort 01
; twine they used? If so in nine cases out often,
i if they be successful fishermen, the answer has
I been "MARSHALL'S TWINE."
It is the ONLY Brand
