ever appear SO hopeful as at the last
session. The friends of the move
were hopeful. But the representa-

could not withstand the pressure
brought by Louis Shade, the editor
of the leading liquor paper OF the
country, backed by the brewers and
distillers, and again the hopes of
the temperance people were dashed
to the ground. The movement was
again crushed to the earth, but, like
truth, it will rise again, and, in the

MANY people confound the terms
"volume of money" and "circulat-
ing medium" as applied to the
money of this country, when the
two terms are distinct and really
have different meanings. The "vol-
ume of money" includes gold, sill
yer, nickel, and copper coins, green
backs, national bank notes, gold
and silver certificates, that in the
aggregate make total volume OF
less than fifteen hundred million
dollars. The circulating medium"
is that which is in actual use among
the people. The redemption re-
serves are not a part of the "circu-
lating medium" The gold and
silver behind the certificates do not
form any part of the circulating
medium" as they are held to re-
deem the certificates that are out
among the people. Money that is
hid away in strong boxes-shrlnk-
ing from investment on account OF a
lack confdence-is not part of the
circulating medium. The fact is
we'll established that, while the
"volume of money" in this country
is nearly $1,000, 100000, the actual
circulating medium" is not more
than $500, 100000. So far as any
practical good is concerend, the
money held in reserve by the gov
eminent is a dead loss. 1t makes
up part of the "volume of money, "
but forms no part of the "circulat.
ing medium" and in no sense full.

The G. A. II. is Looking at the
Political Situation.

Democratic party may be depended
upon to do the wrong thing at the
right time" and because of this
want Of statesmanly acumen the
party has oftimes been beaten. 1t
is now divided on the most vital
point of our financial policy, the
"silver question:" and the probable
tiles have changed from the almost
certain nomination Of Mr.. Cleveland
to a possible revolt from him of a
large body of the party.
There are also many thousands Of
men who have constantly trusted
the Republican party and voted it's
tickets, who declare they are done
and yet "for what other party
shall we cast our suffrage ?'' is the
question and so the great deeps Of
party politics are being broken up,
and the public mind is prepared for
surprises.
In such times as these it is easier
to say what will not be than what
will be. 1t is easy to see that
Cleveland will not be elected if NOM
mated. 1t is also easy to see that
Benz. Harrison cannot be elected if
nominated and now that the Repub-
lican congress has adjourned and
it's power to benefit the patriots who
saved the country has ceased, the
allegiance of the soldier to the par
ty of promises and receptions has
as completely ceased as had that Of
the abolitionists to the Wing party
ceased after the passage of the fugi-
tive slave law.
There are new political issues
rapidly crystalizing. The chief dis
turbers of the pool are the farmer
and labor organizations and the SOL
diers and the chief movement is
toward larger volume of circula-
ton, more active and spontaneous
circulation, and cure for the con-
gestion of circulation which comes
from monopolies, trusts, combina-
tions and corners, making the few
men millionaires and the many men
practically slaves Of poverty.
Should there be a leader arise
whose name and head and heart are
in sympathy with the masses, and
whose patriotism measures up to
the ideal of the men of the sixties !;
should he formulate platform for
interchangeable legal tenders of
gold and silver coin, coin certifi-
Gates, greenbacks and pension mon
ey of the United States, for the
payment of service pensions of all
the honorably discharged living SOL
diers, over and above war disability
pensions, for the payment of differ
ences between the values of gold
and greenbacks during the soldiers
years of service, for .judiciously
rated income tax on inflated wealth;
for an equitable bankrupt law for a
system of postal savings banks
for a gradual and equitable absorb
ton of the telegraph lines by the
government, and for reciprocity in
trade. Such a leader would no
longer be without great National
party than the time required to call
a great national convention.
