Mail Pouch

CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-The mail pouch
which left Boston Tuesday arrived in Chi
cago last evening OYER the Michigan
Southern road robbed of all the regis
tered matter and the supposition is that a
large amount of money was obtained by
the thief. The bag had been cut open,
the thief taking the package containing
first class matter only. This leads to the
belief that the perpetrator is some one
connected with the postal service. The
robbery is supposed to have been commit
ted between Boston and Cleveland.
Boston, Oct. 25.-The news of the
robbery of the Boston mail pouch in a
Chicago dispatch was received this morn
ing at the registered letter division of the
postofice. The pouch left Boston at 8
o'clock Tuesday morning and contained
thirty-ive packages of first class matter,
much of this going beyond Chicago, some
of the letters being addressed to San
Francisco. Only thirteen pieces were 90
ing to Chicago, all the others further
west. Each package contained from one
to twelve, all of which must have either
contained money or checks.

District Court.

The November term of the district
court will convene one week from next
Monday and preparations for that event
are being made as fast as possible. The
deputy clerk of court has finished the
making UP of the civil docket and it shows
altogether about l27 cases that are to
stand for trial at the approaching term.
All but a few of these cases came oyer
from the last term, for not many new suits
have been commenced of late. There are
now, so far as is known, about twenty
criminal cases to be disposed of during the
coming term, most of them being for
offenses of no great magnitude.
AS will be seen in another column the
lists of grand and petit jurors were drawn
by the official board yesterday, and the
sheriff and his deputies will soon be out
summoning them, also witnesses whose
attendance before the grand jury will be
necessary.

set them free in the end. 1t took time
TO do it, but in the end it did do it, and
therefore Isayit again. and | say it with
out fear of successful contradiction, that
no improvement in the rights or in the
condition of the laboring men in Christen-
dom have ever been produced except by
the influence of Democratic principles.
Prolonged applause. The Democratic
party contains the majority of the people
of the United States. 1t c~ootains the
majority of the voters of the United
States. If these men are opposed to the
interests of the laboring man, if they
are the enemies of labor, then they are
their own enemies, their own worst
enemies. and to say of the Democratic
party that it is the enemy of the laboring
man is TO say to that party: You are a
set of idiots" The party that produced
Jefferson and Madison, and Monroe and
Andrew Jackson, and Grover Cleveland
great cheering] and voices = "And
Thurman, and Thurman" to say nothing
of other men is by no means an idiotic
party.
In conclusion he said: Il think that
on the 9th day of next month, God will
ing, We will teach them a lesson that
will make them cease to talk about the
DemocraGIc party DelnS us OWN worst
enemy. LGreat cheering.
At the conclusion of Judge Thurman's
speech President James Allison read the
following message from Washington:
Il very much regret that Mrs. Cleve-
land and myself must deny ourselves the
pleasure of being present at the exposi-
ton on Democratic day, and we can only
say that our disappointment is greater
than that of those who have kindly in
vited us. GROVER CLEVELAND"
Speaker Carlisle followed Judge Thur
man, He agreed with the Judge in his
remarks concerning the connection of the
laboring man to the Democratic party,
saying there is no part of the people of
the United States who are so much in
debted to the Democratic party and Dem
ocratic principles for their prosperity and
growth as the people of the great north
west.
The children who had represented the
different states presented Judge Thurman
with a beautiful floral tribute, The. Day
ton man who said he voted for Blaine
four years ago. but wonld this year vote
for Cleveland, presented a steel horseshoe
as an emblem of good luck.

Sacramento. San Jose, as an ex-
porter, stands second only to San
Francisco.
The comparative figures for the two
points seem to be: Number Of pounds
shipped from Los Angeles in March
5,555 800; for three months ended
March Slst, 10. S5s, 400; from San
Jose, March 4,096, 900; three months
IA, 1885, Now, in the first place
our genial contemporary is pleased to
ignore the fact that in the case Of his
city he gives all the shipments, while
in our case he tells only half the tale.
He has only one transcontinental
road, we have two; and it is quite rea-
sonable to suppose that the Santa
Fe line carries from our gates as
much merchandise as the rival road.
On such basis our total for one month
would be II 100000 pounds, and for
three months nearly 22,0OO,COO
pounds. Then, our friend gives OF the
shipments for March from his city
3,7l5, 200 pounds of barley-or more
than three-fourths Of the total were
of that cereal. Barley free on
board" is worth somewhat less than
one cent per pound. Our shipments
are at this season mostly oranges,
which are worth, free on
board cars, on an average about
So so per box, or, say, three times as
much. The result is that our ship
ments in bulk are twice as great as
those from San Jose, and-what is ot
more moment-in value worth six
times as much. San Jose is a nice
place until you see Los Angeles.

THE buying of United States bond

THE buying of United States bonds is
subject near the heart of the average
Republican, for the underlying doc
trines OF that party are, when carried
to their logical results. nearly all sub
versive of our insti utions in their
purest and most popular forms. That

rich the National banking system

publications as the following, issued
by leading banking house of New

ment bonds, are steadily declining !;
when all products; when the great
staple-iron; when wages, as we'll, OF
the hard working man, are all declin-
ing. Capital cannot keep up its
wages to the working man under these
conditions, and in consequence strikes
occurs all over the land land worse yet to
come, if the Treasury is to be allowed
to keep on in the 10 king-up process.
We say it is well to ask with all
seriou sness, "Whst is the Trouble ?"
With our population increasing with
unexampled rapidity, with peace in
all our borders, why should this be?
If a we'll, hearty and strong man
should Suddenly lose quart Of blood,
and each month blood should dribble,
dribble from his veins, would any one
aware of this fact ask, "What is the
Trouble ?" No! Why should they +?
The trouble is the depletion of the
| life blood of Nation in the loss OF its
currency.
If some strong mbination should
suddenly withdraw even ten millions
of currency from active use, it would
almost create panic.
What is the fact? There is now
locked up in the Treasury of the
United States nearly two hundred
millions of currency, once in active
use. Let this out, and at once the
trouble will cease.
The President of the United Safes
has seen fit to raise point about
law authorizing the use of the surplus
in buying bonds, under which law
already, nearly two hundred millions
OF bonds have been bought-much to
the saving of the people. He asks
Congress to re-enact the same law
while waiting for this, the country
suffers. The House promptly re-
enacted the law; the Senate will in
time do the same.
The Republican party and the Ma
tional banks work hand in hand. The
banks hold the bonds, by the sub
serviency ofthe Republican party thay
will--if that party gets into power
again-either force the bonds on the
Government at an exhorbitant premi-
um, as the above excerpt advocates,
or else refund them for long period
and thus perpetuate the special legis-
lation which allows privileged parties
to use the National credit as basis
on which to do business.
