ed In various ways. The discretionary
powers that are conferred upon the seCre-
tary Of the treasury by the financial
Legislation OF recent years, are invariably
exercised In Che interest Of capital
Under both republican and democratic
administrations this great political agency
is used 10 restrict the volume OF money.
Since 1878 the various secretaries Of
treasury, although posaosslng discretion
ary power 10 coin four million silver dol
lars per month, have In the interest Of
capital, coined but two millions per
month, the minimum amount permitted
under the law.
The exercise Of this discretionary
power by the several secretaries Of the
treasury under the administrations Of
Presidents Hayes, Arthur, Cleveland
and Harrison, has alone deprived the
people Of the United States Of Clrcu-
latlng medium aggregatlng nearly 26O
million dollars, or quite 30 per cent. Of
the sum now estimated TO be in actual
circulation.
In the intere8t OF capital, ex-Presldent
Hayes vetoed the Bland silver bill, which
had passed both houses Of Congress In
1878.
In the interest Of capital, ex-President
Cleveland, after election, but before his
Inauguration, addressed his famous com
munication 10 the democratic members
OF Congress, urging "the suspension Of
the purchase and coinage Of silver"
In the interest OF capital President
Harrison, during the present session OF
Congress, caused TO be made public his
intention TO veto the bill providing for
the free coinage Of silver, should IL re-
ceive the sanction Of both houses Of Con
gress.
Experience demonstrates the folly Of
longer entruating the task Of relieving
the people Of the burdens they 80 wrong
fully bear, TO representatives in Congress
who owe allegiance 20 either the republl
can or democratic party organizations,
The financial Legislation Of Congress fur
nlshes conclusive evidence Of the fact,
that the machinery Of both these parties
ls used TO continue the advantages now
enjoyed by those whose interests are
promoted by restricted volume Of
money The interests Of this favored
class are not ieopardlzed by the success
or defeat OF either Of these parties.
The American Congress, that II is
claimed unintentionally demonetized
silver in 1873, during the intervening
years has continually refused TO repair
the injury by remonetlzing It; while the
measure that would furnish an adequate
and safe circulating medium-that pro-
viding for the Issue Of money by govern
ment upon wealth producing land-re-
Gently introduced by Senator Stanford,
Of California, is without a single avowed

To all citizens who recognize the ne
cesslty for independent political action,
the rapid growth and increasing strength
Of the new political movement inaugural
ed by the agricultural classes, operating
through the organization known as the
farmers alliance, should be a cause Of
encouragement and congratulation.

New jersey, Ohio and Iowa which

Why 1900 Is Not 8 Lean Year.

The following explanation will show
you why the leap year 1900 will not be
counted among leap years: The year
is 365 days 5 hours and As minutes
long; II minutes are taken every year
to make the year 1851 days long, and
every fourth year we have an extra
day. This was Julius Caesars ar
rangement.. You may ask. .sWherc
do these IL minutes come tromp''
They come from the future. and are
paid by emitting leap year every 100
years. But il lean wear is omitted reg
::!ariy every 100 years, In the course
of 400 years. it is found that the II min
utes .lsc. each year Will not only
have been pai1a hack. bu1 that . whole
day will have been given up. So Pope
Gregory Kill, who improved on Ca-
sar's calendar In 1852, aecreed that
every centurial year Invisible by
four should be leap year after all
So we borrow IL minutes each year,
more than paying our borrowings
back by emitting three leap years In
three centurial years, and square mat
ters by having q leap year In the
fourth centurial year. Pope GreRory's
arrangement is so exact and the bor-
rowing and paying back balanced "a
nicely that We borrow moro than We
pay back to the extent of-only one day
In 1856 years.

A Convenient Farm Yard Gate.
The illustration, a sketch OF which
was sent us by j. w. Graham. N. e.,
Is a simple double gate frame, made to
open either way, and closed IN the
following manner: Midway between
the gates is q short post firmly driven
IN the ground, or mortised into the
ground sill, on both sides Of which is
. large button" as shown In engrav-.
ing. These buttons" are fastened to
the post by a small iron bolt with head
and III and washers, and turn with
difficulty. When The gate is to be
opened either way, turn the button"
vertical on the side toward which the
gate is to be opened, and both gates
are at once free to open that Way only.
Near the lower and outer corner Of
each gate is o continuance for keeping
the gate In position after it is opened,
which may be used to help. keep it
firm when closed. It consists OF q
small piece OF timber as broad as tho
gate-frame and about an inch and q
half In thickness, through which Is an
auger-hole; and. Ia this is the cylindri-
cal piece, which should be pointed on
Its lower end. It then passes through

Elk Post Tarto.

As the bills 70 hurriedly passed in
the closing hours Of the late LIANT nted
legisl ature, come to light (there were
about 75) and pass tt rough the guber.
Material crucial test, it will be seen
that they contain evidences of weak.
ners which do not reflect much credit
on the lawmakers. Several vetoes
are making their apr eararce aud
probably more to follow. Tie first
70 meet its fate is the house bill No.
3l6 extending the time for the re.
demption of property sold under fore.
closure, it being ~manifestly unconsti.
tutional, in that it is az post Jfato or i'm.
pairs the obligations of existing cou.
tracts. It is evident that some remedy
should be applied to prevent this ten.
dcncy and disposition to enact un.
constitu ionai laws.
The governor also y tied senate bill
6s, relating to the issue and disposal
Of county bon Is, for the +. ason that
y was substantially the same as senate
bill So, and ap ,roved the gross earn
ings tax bill aud the railroad direct
tax bill. Thee give the railroads a
choice between the two methods of
taxation. Tie bill providing for
tax stion Of personal property in un-
organized counties was approved. It
i probable that the passage Of the
Walsh revenue bill will necessitate
the appointment Of county auditors in
every county in the state, as it pro-
yides that the assessment shall be
made by the auditors. IF this should
Be the case il will be necessary for
tie county commissioners to appoint
