There are a number of people in
this country who think that tbs true
way to OBTAIN permanent prosperity
is to Lave "cheap money" As the
present silver dollars have only Il Id
cents worth OF silver in them, they
appear to be cheap enough. At pres
emit, however, they pass current at
100 cante, and will do 30 until some
partisan act forces them upon the
people, who ara unwilling to take
more than a modest amount Of them,
or until some change at the National
Treasury compsls paying them out.
When either of those things occur,
the dollar will be at discount, and
we shall have money as cheap
as the East Indies have it now.
There the standard of value, the
silver rupee, becomes cheaper as silver
becomes cheaper. 1t is useful to note
that the profit Of this cheapnes' goes
to thoEe who buy from the East Indies,
and the loss IL borne by the people
where the cheap money is circulated.
The English cotton manufacturers are
boastiug OF the profit this cheap mon
ey brings them. They buy their cot
ton in India, and pay for it, of course,
in the India cheap money. The mer-
chandse is then brought to Europe
and sol for the gold that circulates
there. The Eaglish claim that ano,h-
or advantage cana TO them from the
Indian cheap money; it kept down
the price OF American cotton, giving
them advantage in that market also.
Here 10 the statement IS we find II
given: "They bought their raw ma
terial in India on silver basic, which
at the same time tended to keep down
tho price Of American cotton, and they
s,ld on a gold basis in foreign markets
They were thus able TO extend theil
trade and obtain a larger margir
OF profit" An eminent Lon
don paper, the Stdtia, says
"The currency OF the United Statel
being in excess, prices there are rels
lively higher than in Europe; an(
consequently other countries, lik'
India and Egypt, have been able K
unde sell America in the wheat anC
cotton markets" Here we see whs
excess o. money and cheap money
doea--they bring loss, aud give To,
owners OF money Of full value that los
as their profit.

MEMPHIS APPEAL.
FRIDAY, AUGUST 20, 1885,
APECUIIAR HONEY MARKET.

The condition OF the money market
is becoming peculiar, and cannot be
watched too closely by business men,
Money for a long time, even in Inc
busy SCI son, has been abundant ana
ruling at a very low rate OF interest,"
Now we are in the dead season, Wnen
money is less called fJr, we find 1t be-
coming tcarcer and the money rate
going up. This occurs, too, at q time
that government hiss resumed the
payment OF bonds, thus throwing $lO,-
100000 Of money open TO general cir
culation. Notwithstanding that we are
in the dead sefson money has become
feyerish, and loans have been made in
New York at IL per cent, and more
money has been bid for than can be
supplied. This is the more striking as
there is fair probability OF gold i'm
portatiors at On early day. Some may
believe that manipulation" has beer
at work, but i is not manipulation
that reduces the market to a poin
where mauipu a ors can control 1t.

GEN, Sedgwick's Mission Not New
Departure.

Washington special to the st. Louis
Globe Democrat An official high in
authority here expressed surprise to-
dav at the large amount Of talk that
had been INDUCED in in regard TO the
send ng of Gen. Sedgwick on special
mission to Mexico. He discoursed as
follows: "This is not by aay means
the first time the Secretary has doae
the same thing. There is now gem
tlemsn on more important mission
of The same kind, and yet have seen
nothing, or next to nothing, said
about it. | refer to the sending OF
George H. Bates, of Wilmington, Del,
to Apia, in the Samoan lslands.
1t will be remembered that a
few months ago there was seri-
GUS trouble threatened at this
point. Two native kings we're at war.
Bism arck, in carrying out his policy OF
acquiring territory, was thought to be
LAYING his plans through his repres.
entatiye there, for taking the island
under the protection of the German
Aag. The British Consul there was
somewhat bumptious and knew that
his government was deslrous OF laklng
charge of the whole kingdom. Our
Consul at that point is a new mao,
Berthold Greenbaum, an ex'clothing
dealer of San Francisco. When Green
baum was given the place it was
thought to be- the last spot where
ANYTHING, either great or small, wei
likely to happen. The salary of the pos
ition is only $500 per year and I
hardly seemed likely that skilltu
diplomatist could be secured at tha'
salary. When the trouble arose Green
banm was all at sea. He fourisheC
fine flag a good deal and talked a gcoc
deal. but that was all Secretary Bay
ard conceived the idea OF sending SOM
one TO Samoa, and suggested TO Ger
many and England that they do th
same. He get forth in his dispstche
TO these countries that none OF then
need be bound by the Investigation
or action OF these special messenger
Int that they could all have in thi
wav a full and accurate knowledge
the situation there. Mr.. Bates hs
been gone for some time, and is probi
biy now in Apis. He is an able mar
and has the advantage of know
, ing inst what the se'I.
taTv wants done. He will ga her q
tSe injoTmat' on in the case and ccm
hack WITH points that it would be me-
, to impossible to obtain by CORES pop'
snce. So was it in the case OF Coos
, bingham. No one expected Psso d
: Nnrte TO become en- important polI
|, and as soon as it does become 60 it
a necessary to have some ore 60 the

DROUTH In TEXAS.
An Appeal for Aid From the sur

CLYDE, TEX August I6.-At meet.
ing of citizens Of Callahan county,
held at Clyde yesterday, called for the
purpose of taking steps for the relief
Of those who have suffered from the
prolonged drouth, the following pre-
amble and resolution were ed pied:
WHEREAS, The county OF Callahan
having been providentially visited by
a drouth of unprecedented duration
and extent, involving a loss to the
farmers Of their entire crop OF cereals,
cotton, hay and grass; therefore, be it
Rtsoiued, That inssmuch as a large
majority of our cit zens, in c;nsider.
alton OF the facts, Rave reen reduced
10 a state of almost absolute want,
and are without means or Feed to
make another crop, we have this day
in mass meeting decided to appeal to
an ever ready and benevolent public
for aid. We have the ground, teams,
implements, strong arms and brave
hearts, and what we need is seed end
provisions for those who are not able
10 buy. We do not ask tnis as gilt,
but simply as loan, and we would
most urgently request that the names
of the donaturs with the amounts
given be sent with supplies TO our dis
ttibuting committees, who a'e in
struc ed to keep record OF the same,
in order that the value received may
oe returned at the earliest practical
time. =.
The above is but fair sample OF
he restitution existing in fully forty
C uutis 8 of West and Northwest Texas,

respondents have been denied in GER
tain newspapers by interested land
speculators and railroad agents. Col.
p, S. Pfous, CONNIE C al tourist, states
tn at after leaving Fort Worth and be-
tween there and Weatherford the
drouth aud its effects are very sp-
parent, that at and around Abb
len. its ravages are fearful: that no
vegetation whatever can be seen,
and Zoe people have to import vageta-
oles, ca lie have bsen driven out Of
the country entirely. When Sweet
water, Colorado City end Big Springs
are reached it is lit bstter as those
places have had partial rainfalls. He
reports conversation with Col. Win
field Scott, one of the oldest settlers
and most extensive cattlemen in Tex
as, in which that gentleman says that
if rain falls in September it will
push the grass 80 that there will be
sufficient to iatten the cattle before
winter, which they will be liable to
pass through safely unless too rigorous.
Col. Scott says this is the worst drouth
he ever saw. He adds that he never
saw a bad one that was not followed
by favorable season. He predicts 9
great improvement in the condition
and prices of cattle 10 the spring. The

TEMPORARY PROTECTION

Even Henry Olay, VINO hale PIo'
tective tariff the most prominent plank
in the Wing creed, advocated pro'ec'
ton as temporary measure. In a
letter to the Hon. N. Beverley Tucker,
dated Ashland, October 10, 1889, he
said:
"Since my return home have re-
ceived the letter which you addressed
TO me on the 10 h ultimo. Mr.. Wise
correctly reported tl you the opinion
entertain on the several public mat
tiers mentioned in your letter: First
That / think the compromise OF the
tariff ought TO be maintained without
violation. la the origin OF
the protective policy, it WIS never sup
posed by ma or by others OF It's friends,
RS far as | know their views, that II
was 10 be permanent. We intended
ii to be temporary so as to ensble the
American manufacturers to get
through their infancy aud to main
tain something like an equal compe-
tition with foreign. II asked at that
period whether we required longer
duration to the policy than the year
1843, when the compromise will take
com plete effect, l think no one would
have demanded It,"
This Is nothing but an apology Tor
advocating protection, for 1t is equiv
alent to raying: 81 know protection
is odious and bu densome, but be pa
tent, as the load will be removed
from the people in lS43, only thirteen
years aencs," Most Of the old Wings
( who supported Henry Clays protec'
tive system are now for tariff reform
for the present war tariff imposes bur
dens on the people which the old
Wings never contemplated when they
followed the star OF Clay nearly fifty
years ago. The policy which Henry
Clay says was only "intended to bC
temporary" is now "intended" by the
\, monopolies, who profit by protection
TO be permanent. Clay, the Grea
Commoner and compromiser, saw tina
q protective tariff which taxed one in
dustry to protect another wa
an outrage which the people coul,
not reconcile with justice, al,
he encouraged them to patient on
durance on the ground that the burde
would be only Temporary" This ws
fifty years sgo, but the country
cursed with protective tariff whic
Henry Clay never dreamed would /
impos ed on the people. Oar infaI
industries have grown Old. The bull
ines 10 which our infant mauuiactur
were born have all rotted down. Pr
lection has enabled them to but
