CONGRESS- THE MESSAGE

CONOhEOO. II ID 11ESSA LIE.
Congress convened on Monday
last and the Presidents Message was
presented. 1t is considered quite a
good message and very well writ
ten State paper. There is, however,
no new features embodied in it. The
theory of reciprocity is endorsed
and the protective tariff policy for
the good of the country is maintain
ed, and the passage of the bill to en-.
force and secure the purity of the
elections is virtually encouraged. In
the Senate Mr.. Hoar has taken
charge of the election bill and it is
being considered by a strict party
vote, and the outlook is, that it will
be passed before the close of this
session. There has been no break
made from republican standpoint,
but on the contrary they seem more
determined than ever to maintain
the convictions of their position.

FINANCE.

Even the money kings of Europe
have been going to the wall and max
ing business affairs tremble to their
very centre. They did not have any
Mckinley tariff bill over in London,
but the stunted oppertion that Bar
ing Brothers witnessed with all their
wealth and their surroundings
was about as near grave yard for
earthly hopes as any firm would wish
to perceive. In Philadelphia there
was run on the Keystone National
Bank for two days, but its principle
depositors stood FIRMLY by it and it
withstood the storm. The banking
firm of B. K. Jamison & Co., old and
honored men in the business went
under.

There is scarcely any excuse for a
person going wild simply because
they get married. One would sup
pose that was a sensible thing to do.
Yet, here is our friend Frey, of the
Morgan Mercury, issued his paper
last week and dated it December, 4,
1890. On the inside he attempted to
correct the date by tie following
notice:
ERRATUM The date on the out
side of this issue should read No.
vember 81. 1890, instead of Deem
Der 4, 1890, as it there appears.
Now the query is, which is the
nearer correct Dec. 4th. 1890 or No.
vember 81, 1890 I? Frey must have
been terribly excited over that mar
riage.

THAT SURPLUS TBE0R Y.

Why does free trader inquire of
the farmer whose wheat IS protected
from foreign cheap wheat. What are
you going to do with your surplus ?
Now; they are not shut out from the
markets of the world, but their home
market is protected for them. and if
the foreign cheap wheat is let in, will
not that of itself cause more of a
Surplus on our farmers hands? The
farmers see these things and the sur
plus theory is too thin bait to catch
even suckers Oh.
