An EARNEST APPEAL
Fhe C2nzl-st Merchants are Weary
Of Waiting,
lSD ARE RAPIDLY LOSING PiTlE5CE
They are wliing TO Pot Up with Al
na0st Anything in the Nay OF strsst
Car Tracks n TAey Csn oDly
Have Descent Payeneuts

Tae nlefchants who are doing busi-
ness on Canai-st. are most OF them ten
ants Ia the buildings they occupy and
they have been for weeks feeding upon
the hope that IN the near future they
would have a fifst-class street such .
one as viii attract travel and trade.
Day by day the sun rises upon their
hope aud goes down upon their disap-
: ntment and hope deferred has made
thar hearts exceedingly SEX.
They are willing % throw ASIDE all
considerat ons in the way Of street rail-
way trae.s' and wait until time and
ProydouzS- shall bring about these
changes but they are losing patience
with the dilatOry manner IN which the
proposed Improvement Of the street IS
treated. DESTROYS OF expressing their
ylewsin the matterclearly and torcibly,
the following petition is made 70 the
property owners OF the street with the
hope that il may have some good infu-
ence coming as it does from so many
business men.
GRAND RAPIDS, May 25, 1890.
To the property owners on Canal-st.:
Believing that we as rent payers have
some rights which property owners are
bound 10 respect, we ask said property
owners on Canal-st., between Bridge
and Lyon-sts. TO take some measures at
once TO improve the condition OF sad
street and thereby save TO Us what little
business we now have and save
the street and the city from
the disgrace and reproach that
II is now under in consequence Of the
condition OF the pavement. We VIII
not undertake 10 say how many street
car tracks there shall be nor what kind
of pavement, believing tins TO be Of
minor importance and that tins Is only
used by some of the property owners as
short sighted excuse TO prevent and
delay the needed improvement. All OF
which we prayertully submit TO your
careful consideration.

Our friend Griffith, who stands on
a platform which believes in the Office
seeking the man, worked hard since
last spring to secure his nomination
somewhere. He wanted to get on
both alliance and republican tickets,
but the latter desiring a capable man
for the position, Griffith did not meet
with much favor from that party.
When he found that the republicans
would not have him he denounced the
party and hoped into the alliance
ranks. This is true, for Mr.. Griffith
did much of his preliminary work in
the CAT Office. and said that he would
have to subscribe for the Tribune to
keep on the good side of them. That
is political trickery.
Thomas County cat., 1890-10-09

One of the principal arguments
made by alliance speakers is that the
amount of money in circulation of
late years has greatly decreased, and
now it is less than 81 per capita.
Their information, Mckinney SAYS.
and he ought to know, comes from
Senator Plumb's speech. Senator
Plumb, instead of saying so, said:
''that some one says" it is less than
that in actual individual circulation.
For the benefit of Mr.. Nc
Kinney and our alliance readers who
have not the opportunity to learn the
truth about the matter from official
records, we append the money in cir
culation at various dates from the re-
port of the United States treasurer as
follows:
In June, 1873, the population be-
ing less than IS, 100000 the money in
circulation, according to this official
statement, excluding the amount in
the treasury, was sS19,2Ol,372, or
sl1.2l per capita. In 1879 it was
$500, 600, or s1703 per capita.
In 1880 it was s97S,17O, 3337 or sig 81
per capita In 1881 it was sl.1l9-
-
sl3,s43, or S21.76 per capita. In
1882 it was sl,l79,l03, 3,651, or s22 33

3Ol,S23. or S22.S3 per capita In 1884
1t was 81 ,243, ll5. .S36, or s25 80 Der

There has not been in the last twen-
ty-five years time when it was more
important that the republicans should
control the government-the whole
government-than now The country
has seen what it is to have divided
government. For sixteen years prior
to this year the democrats have had
control of one branch of congress and
the republicans of the other. The
consequence has been that little legis-
lation of general importance has been
passed; the time in congress has been
largely spent in pickering and quar-
reling and fillibustering to prevent the
passage of important bills. In that
time the expert fillibusterer grew to
be the important man. Not the man
who could conceive wise bills and
procure their adoption, but the man
who could prevent legislation was the
leader When the republicans gain
ed control Of both houses for the first
time in aixteen years, they quickly
remeded this, and they have passed
more bills of Importance through the
house during the present session than
were adopted altogether during the
previous sixteen years. The republi-
can party believes in doing things.
The aim of the democratic party is to
prevent things from being done. The
republican party is the party of pro-
gress. The democratic party is the
party of obstruction. Much remains
to be done, much that the people want
DONE The democrats are boasting
that they Will carry number of Kan
sas districts this fall, among others
the Fifth and Sixth. Why do the
people of Kansas send men TO con-
gress, to do something or to prevent
something from being done? If the
former, then by al! means let them
elect Phillips and McNall, who are
men of action. Let not obstruction
lists be sent from the pushing state of
Kansas as.-Leavenworth Times.

old soldier of the union should think

at this time will stand on a platform
which bears no reference to the secur-
ity of a free ballot and a fair count.
The platform occupied by Mr. Baker
daunts the question Of money-getting
high above all others, and does not
deign to notice the political murders
and other high crimes in the South,
whereby the confederate democracy
has kept in the saddle, and the people
of the north have been swindled out
of anything like their just proportion
of strength in the electoral college
and in the congress. There are fel-
lows in human form who call the eX-
preston of these sentiments '.waiving
