STEWART ON SILVER.

The following is part of speech deliver
ed in the United States Senate by Senator
Stewart, Of Nevada.
"While the bondholder has grown rich by
this war on silver, how has the farmer tared'
Wheat, for example is cheaper to-day than 1t
has been for one hundred years. The farmer
of the United States is forced to sell his
wheat on gold basis. He is suffering the
full force Of the characterization of silver
and the destruction of one half Of the worlds
money. The gold coin in circulation to-day
does not exceed the gold and silver coin in
circulation forty years ago, while the PoPu-
lation of Europe and America has about
doubled in that time. This is not all The
fact that silver is over twenty five per cent
discount in the United States is developing
the productive industries OF India, where
the silver remains at par with gold. The
Spectator buys silver in America at dis
count OF twenty five per cent. and exchanges
it in India for wheat and cotton at par. He
has twenty FIVE per cent. advantage IN the
Londen market over the importer of wheat
from America, who buys for gold. In 1879,
before cheap silver had stimulated the pro-
ductlon of wheat in India, the United States
shipped to Europe over $50, 600, 600 bushels
of wheat and sold it for over SI9o, 600, 900.
In the same year India only exported 4,ooo,-
900 bushels. In 1886 the United States
shipped less than $4,000, 900 bushels OF
wheat to Europe and received for it less than
SIC. ooo, 900, while in the same year midas
shipment rose from 4, ooo, 900 in 1879 to 3d.
o6o. 900 bushels in 1887. There has been
no over production of wheat to reduce the
price. There has been no increase in the
last ten years except in India; on the con
trary there has been decline in quantity
throughout Europe and America. In June,
1886, an animated discussion occurred in
London, at the Colonial Chamber of Com
merce. Upon the subject of the low price
India, Sir Robert n. Fowler, M. P, Lon
don banker and ex,lord mayor, said the "ef-
feet of the depreciation of silver must finally
be the ruin of the wheat and cotton indus
uies OF America, and be the development of
India as the chief wheat and cotton exporter
of the world" Notwithstanding these plain
facts, and the universal depression of the
farming business of the United States, caused
by The low price of products, growing cut
Of the decentralization of silver, the bond
holders still insist upon their demands"

POOR NEVADA.

Ttwould seem that there is a systematic
effort being made by the government, and
all outsiders generally to knock Nevada
clear out of the ring-annhilate her entire
ly. 1t is evident that we cannot have decent
mail facilities; it is recommended that our
mint be closed; our representatives have to
fight like tigers to get an appropriation OF
few thousand dollars for Government build
ing; post masters have to work for an ap
prentice's pay, and everything that can be
done to njure the State in the eyes of out
siders is done. Years ago, when the whole
nation was in trouble, and money was need
ed for war and other purposes, how glad all
were to have little Nevada step into the ring
with her millions of dollars and say, "here,
we'll help you out" In the face of all this,
the monled men, and men OF influence, have
for the past few years advocated the sup
preston Of the coinage Of silver, and done
all in their power TO degrade the metal by
placing it is nearly as they could on a par
with lead The idea that Nevada is played
out as mining and bullion producing State
is all wrong She has to-day as good mines
as ever, and great many more OF them, but
is it reasonable supPosition 10 believe that
the owners of these mines are going to
work them when over quarter OF the pro
ceeds are to 60 to the spectators and money
sharks2 Place silver where it should be,
give US law that will allow free coinage,
and Nevada alone will build Navy that
will outstrip anything in the world. and pay
the national debt, too, in time. But no, Ne
vada must be froze out, if possible; anything
her people want they cannot have, and what
they have must be taken away. Let a few
of these wise men, who advocate the closing
Of our mint and the shutting up Of other in
situations, come here and find out what kind
of place it is they are talking about. You
cannot find another people in the world
equal to Nevadans. They are liberal heart
ed, generous TO fault and this is why they /
are taken advantage Of Should any Other
State in the Union be treated as she is the .
people would be up in arms demanding re-
dress. We say give Nevada elbow room and
she will astonish the world.

THE new and growing South will not
long remain "'solid" if the Democratic party
leaders persist in Advocating free trade
doctrine. Too much capt. al is being put in
to the manufacturing industry in hatcoun.ry.
Already it is estimated that the new South
has more cotton mills and manufactures
than New England. Do they want free
trade, that outsiders may bring into compe-
tition with them the pauper labor products
Of all countries? Not much The South is
but comparatively new country, and it will
grow rapidly fr>m this on. In a short time
it will see the folly of being SO "solid."

The surplus in the treasury has actually
allowed the President to loan to the banks
$40 900, 600 Of the peoples money with no
rate of inserest. The bankers, of course,
receive interest on this money, but at the
same time the people are paying interest on
the bonds and there is nothing being done to
retire these bonds. There was bill passed
at the last session of Congress providing for
the use OF the surplus in retiring bonds, but
it failed to become a law as the President
did not sign it. There are plenty of ways
to use the surplus, however, if it is not put
to the use of retiring bonds. Use SEINE of it
to give US decent mail facilities, build navy,
use it for river and harbor improvements, all
of which are necessary. Surplus! bosh.

Their Business Booming.

Probably no one thing has caused such a
general revival of trade al J. A. Bonham S
as their giving away to their customers so
many free trial bottles of DR.. Kings New

simply enormous in this very valuable arti-

Bronchitis, and all throat and lung diseases
quickly cured. You can test it before buy

The purpose of the Catholic party to
break up our unsectarian system has been
realized in Stearns county, Minnesota, where
their church property exceeds million dol
lars. The Catholic catechism is taught
daily in nearly three -fourths of the public
schools. Many of the schools are conduct
ed in the German language, and some of the
schools taught by the Benedictine sisters.

In some paper we noticed it stated that
there was to be compromise in the MELON
aid case; that Clara Belle was to take $780,
900, leave her child and the State and call
it square. We do not believe it, and will be
much surprised if she gives up her child at
any price, unless it is forced from her.

III is hoped that our ranchers and gar
deners will not be backward in sending to
Senator Stewart for whatever seeds they want
to make experiments with. He is in earnest
about sending them. Several have already
requested us to write for seeds, which we
have agreed to do. However, it would be
best to send to Washington yourselves.
