.5y- why do the National banks exclude

@- Why do the National banks exclude
Canada money from circulation? Is there
any reason for it2 We think of none. This
money is redeemable in gold, and as conse-
quence is better money than National bank
money, which is only redeemable in other
paper promises. The Canadian banks do not
discriminate against American money. They
pursue liberal and sensible policy. As re-
suit, both greenbacks and National bank
notes are current all over Canada, and much
of our money is in circulation there. Now,
why do our banks curtail our money circula-
tion by discriminating against money that is
bottomed on gold. 1t certainly Injuries our
business, as it acts to restrict circulation

for Governor Foraker to rise and explain why
he pardoned young fellow out of the Peni-
tentiary, upon the solicitation of one Kelley,
an Office holder in California, who represent
cd shat he was poor and innocent, and in
ssthd pen" for nothing. 1t now turns out that
fhe pardoned criminal is well known New
York thief who committed all sorts Of frauds
in the interest of the Republicanpart in Gin
cinnati at the last Presidential election, and
that Foraker was cognizant of the fact at the
time Of granting the pardon, and that it was
done in consideration Of the fellows services
to the Republicans. The JeGersonian is

to explain his actions to the people.

Such people never succeed in building up a

.B Railroad companies are tired of being
served with garnishees for wages due en-
ployes. A circular recently issued by the
Wabash road is as follows: "To all employees
on the rolls of this road: Any employe whose
name appears on the rolls of this station, and
who owes any debts that will naturally come
to the Office as claims against said individual,
must either satisfy said claim at once or re-
sign his position. This rule will be impera-
tive, as the management of this company
does not want to employ men who will not
pay their honest debts. Any employe who
places himself or herself in position to be
garnisheed will at once be discharged"

~ Boycotting is being reduced to sci
ence in the way of elimination and recrim-
ination. Down about Steubenville the strik-
ing nailors and their associates in other labor
organizations are boycotting the Gazette, by
refusing to patronize business houses thatad-
vertise in that paper. Now come the farmers
and declare that they will not patronize tle
business houses which decline to support a
newspaper for such cause. The thing is
getting down to "hard-pan" when the tiller
of the soil joins in the crusade. If the man
who raises the wheat that makes the -four of
which the loaf is made commences to kick,
the human "inard" are bound to shrivel pref
ty soon. The farmer holds the key to the sit
uation, and if he cuts of supplies by any pre-
concerted or organized means the striker will
find himself strikee very shortly.-Mt. Yer

~ Bob Ingersol, being asked few days
since what he thought of Bismarck's Polish
policy, said:
81 think that Bismarck is beast. If some
poor Polish woman, driven from her home
in Posen, driven to misery and want, holding,
1t may be, dying child to her breaking heart,
should pray God to take the chancellor home
to himself and God should answer her prayer
should feel almost like changing my relig-
ion. Bismarck belongs to the dark ages. He
was loved by Germany simply because he
humiliated France. Germany gave her lib
erty for revenge"

~ Some idea of the enormous propor-
tions of the Bell telephone monopoly may be
gained from the fact that in New York City
alone it received 100000 in 1884 on an in
vestment of less than 100000. This sum
represents not the cost of telephone service
to the public but only the "rents" paid by
New York telephone exchanges to the Bell
company. When there is reason to believe
that such monopoly has been gained by
fraud, those who advocate the monopol to
the extent of denying the governments right
to investigate, ought to be regarded as public
enemies.

The Administration VS.. The Thieve

The Administration VS.. The Thieves.
Democrats who want to see their party re-
main in the ascendent must stand by the
President. We may differ IN trivial matters,
but the Democratic party must stand by Gro
yer Cleveland or retire from power. If the
President fails in his administration then the
party fails, and power is wrested from it, il
may be forever.
There is combination of the monopolists
and public plunderers to break down the
Cleveland administration and the Democratic
party. The Republican Senate has taken up
the fight and Las joined the gang, and will
compromise the President whenever and
wherever it can. The Democratic admin
istration and, party isnow in need of the
support of every true Democrat, those who
love party more than self, and if united
support is given there need be no fear
for the outcome. The storm will pass,
and the organization, headed by Grover
Cleveland, will come forth stronger than ever
before, and victory will have been gained
over thieves and plunderers for which the
country will be in lasting gratitude to the
Democratic party, and the people will give
the party an indefinite lease of power.
President Cleveland is placed in position
in which no other man has ever been placed.
All the thieves and rascals and public rob-
bers who did their best to make Blaine Presi-
dent. because they thought they could use
him to advantage, are arrayed against his ad-
ministration. All the corrupt influences of
the country, in which we are sorry to see
sprinkling of Democrats, are in arms against
his administration. All the land rings, the
naval rings, the Indian rings, the steamship
rings, the postal rings, and all the other rings
which flourished so under Republican rule, is
arrayed against his administration. ALI the
monopolists, all the combinations
for public robbery, all thieves and rascals,
all the corrupt influences of the country and
the worst elements are opposed to his admin
Why? Because Grover Cleveland
has signed their death warrants. It is there
fore the duty of every Democrat, and all low
ers of country, to give the present admins
tration hearty support. 1t needs the en-
couragement of every honest man in this hour
of its trial. President Cleveland is hampered
by laws passed by Republicans, but he is
nobly standing up for his party, as is shown
by his stand taken against the Republican
Senate and the harmony which pervades his
cabinet. The Democratic party is safe in
the hands of Grover Cleveland.

~ In reply to allegations of the Republi-
cans that the South, although prospering, is
doing nothing for education, the New Orleans
Times Democrat submits facts that merit
consideration. The South, midway in the
decade, now approp.iates twice as much for
education as in 1880, and five times as much
as in 1870, when the rate of taxation was fous
times as high and the Republicans were in
control. In 1869, under them, North Carolina
gave nothing to its public schools; in 1870,
only So, 1862; in 1882, under Democratic rule,
sos, ,736; and last year, $S50,0oO. One-third
Of all the taxes now raised by the Southern
States goes to education. Texas gives more
for it schools-in addition to its donation of
million of acres of land to the school fund
than to all other purposes of Government.
The amount generally appropriated for the
Southern public schools, the Times Democrat
says, to day is $40, Lee, ,OOO, the negroes being
given the same facilities and advantages as
the whites, and the schools having an attend
ance of 3,011, ,786.
