Prof A. L. Perry, of Williams College
has written a letter on'the finances to the
editor of The 0maha Herald, in which he
says: "Contraction in some form and to an
enormous extent must precede@ permanent
resumption. +Thebanks can resume without
fnrther action on their part, but the" Gov
must hoard gold as France is doing

evel, which it never yet has done, be-
cause the Government has been a constant
'ear in the gold market; reduce its de-
nand and obligations to the lowest posi-

ave gone the downward road like sheep:
ike asses, with pendant ears, we must re-
race the steps back to the starting point"
The Hon. NJ. G. Kerr has been in
illinois recently, examining into his pros
ects for the Speakership. As a result, it
announced that the entire Missouri dele
a. ion is pledged for him, and that he is
srtain to receive nearly the entire vote of
lie delegations from Illinois, Kentucky
ndlana, and nearly all the rest of the
'estern States. His friends are confident
: his success. However well grounded (
leir hopes may be, it is certain that the j
lends Of Mr.. S. S. Cox are not at all des. /
ondeht. The Syracuse Courier has been
'oking over the field, and has come to "
lis conclusion: "As to the prospects, SO
= as we are enabled to judge, Mr.. Cox is G
inning on all his competitors. Mr..
andall cannot command the united sup

en- has led to a distrust of him by both, p
ldlng two hsrses is dangerous to business c.
r. Cox is established firmly on hard
oney platform; and that is the end b
hen the people take the sober second nj
ought, is bound to win.
