The failure of Maverick Bank in
Boston for 100000 which 50 000,.
900 or more was taken by the manag'
ing men in the bank, one of whom
had 100000, another $500, 900 and
another $500, 200 of this money taken
within two years or two and hall
without the knowledge of the bank
examiners, is the most CONCLUSIVE
evidence that could be offered that
the national banking law, which was
passed for the benefit of money lend.
ers more than anything else, is all
wrong. The Alliance claims that it
is wrong and the bankers themselves
have given them the proof that it 10
wrong It will, however, require
united effort upon the part of the
farmers to secure legislation to right
this wrong. They claim, and justly,
that the United States should issue
its own money directly from the
Treasury and not through the medium
of national banks. No law directing
this will ever be passed until the
people of the country quit sending
to Congress men who are the attorneys
of the directors of national banks.
and it is fact that for fifteen years
past majority of the members of
both houses of congress have either
been attorneys or directors ID
National banks and it is more than
probable that the same condition
exists in the SD Congress. 1t rests
with the farmers whether sue b con-
dition shall exist in the SD.

there has never been a question raised
as to the means necessary for the COM
pletion of the project The entire mat
ter was settled at the start with that
business-lile promptitude character
istic of Chicago, and to-day the noblest
monument on American soil was un-
yelled as the result of the patriotic de-
yotion and liberality of Chicago's citi-
Zens.
The statue sets north and south upon
an immense arch.
1t is now the most imposing object
that the lake mariner beholds along
the north shore of the city. Below it
runs the great north shore sea wall and
drive, which when completed will be
the grandest embankment in the world.
Lake Michigan stretches out in front
and beneath an October sun it reflected
to-day all the delicate tints OF the rain
bow. Back of the statue is the famous
electric fountain, on all sides are beau
tiful terraces with flower beds and foil
age. The location, the view, the base,
the statue, all combined to make this
memorial to the silent soldier of Ga'ena
the. most eloquent that could be de-
vised.
It is somewhat difficult to estimate
the number of people who were pres
ent to-day when the ceremonies began.
Probably a figure touching closely
anon $50. 600 would not be too high.
The park swarmed with well dressed,
gailv uniformed and happy people Of
all ages, sexes, colors, creeds and
nationalities There was an abundance
of bunting displayed, both on the lake
and shore. The naval display in which
one hundred Chicago merchantmen
took part, and which was given addi-
tional eclat by the presence OF the
limited States vessels Michigan,
Johnson and Fessenden, added
much to the splendor of the
occasion. This display was In charge
of some of the Oldest and most promi-
nent of Chicago's mariners notably,
Capt. ]. S. Durham, Capt a. w. Gooa-
rich, Hugh Mcmillan, n. E Holmes
and J. C Evans The United States
vessels of course were in command OF
their regular officers In addition to
the merchantmen, the lake in front OF
the park was occupied by a feet Of ex'
cursion steamboats,, numerous private
yachts, tug boats, etc. Frequent sa-
lutes were fired and the national colors
displayed conspicuously from every
masthead
The arrangements for the disposition
of the crowds were quite perfect.
These were in charge Of Gen JOSEPH

RECENT REFLECTIONS.

The demand for farms to rent is
greater than for many years.
The delegates of the Kansas State
Volunteer Firemen's association meet
in this city next Monday and it is ex-
pected that about one hundred fremen
from all pats of the state will be
present.
"A number of G. A. R. members as
well as several. ladies left last evening
for Ellsworth to take part in the state
G. A. R. encampment. The drum
crops accompanied the party and an
exceptionally pleasant time is antici-
pated.
There was no attendance at the
alliance picnic at Talmage yesterday
and it was postponed until the 18th
when another attempt will be made to
get a few deluded farmers together.
The alliance picnic business is about
played out.
The high school debating society
decided in the affirmative the other
night the following proposition: Re
solved, That the alliance will cut no
figure in the coming campaign" abb

Stockton, assisted by the entire police
department. and particularly by In.
spector Setback, in whose district Lin.
coin park is located The procession
having reached the park barrier was
erected at the Lake Shore drive and nc
vehicles were permitted to follow.
The space around the monument
for the processionists was ropeq
eff. This space extended north OF
the monument about six hundred feet
to a path leading across one of the lake
bridges. Ropes were also placed one
hundred feet south of the electric fount-
ain. In each case these lines extended
east to the new regatta course. On
the west the spectators were allowed
to approach the edge of the drive skirt
ing the monument AL the space out:
side of these boundaries and the entire
new Lake Shore drive was open to spec
tators. No vehicles were admitted, SC
that the view from any point on the drive
was unobstructed, The view from the
lake was also clear, and thousands of
people witnessed the ceremonies from
the decks of vessels. A temporary
bridge was thrown across the break in
the esplanade for the convenience OF
spectators, and three pontoon bridges
were swung across the regatta course.
The managers endeavored in every way
to carry out the idea that this was
popular demonstration and did every
thing possible to provide for the popu-
lace, but at best the crowd was so great
that on all such occasions, thousands
were unable to get within sight of the
monument and, of course, thousands
were correspondingly disappointed
The gunboats anchored six hundred
feet east of the new drive and opposite
the monument The land saluting
battery was placed east of the electric
fountain and west of the regatta course.
The speakers platform was erected
east of the monument in the drive be-
meath. On one end of the stone abut-
ments of the base of the monument a
number of old flags used in the cam
paigns were seen. On the opposite
end the modern military flags and ban

Old Soldiers at Ellsworth.

ELLSWORTH, Kss., Oct. Every
thing points to a successful state re-
union of old soldiers here this week.
During the last few days rain has
fallen so thele will be no trouble from
dust.
This morning dawned bright, clear
and sharp. The sun was shining and
there was every evidence of fine
weather for the week. Large crowds
arrived yesterday and this morning
from the west. The Frisco is running
an extra from Burton. The Union
Pacific trains, both ways, were crowded
yesterday. They will run a special in

was an outpouring of pc PIE from the
heart of the city, such as has been sell
dom witnessed here. 1t was recalled by
many of those who flocked toward Lin
coin park to-day that a similar exodus
under far different circumstances, how
ever, had occurred just about twenty
years ago. This is October I. Two
days from now and Chicago will pass
the twentieth anniversary of her great
fire. On the 9th of October, 1871, thou
sands of refugees, homeless and impov-
erished, sought shelter in Lincoln park
and for days afterwards tents were
pitched for these people around the
very spot which now marks the site of
the Grant monument. In different
spirits and with different purpose did
the immense crowds move through the
north side of the city to-day,
In October, 1871, this entire section
was a wilderness of ruin. To-day
it is rebuilt more beautiful and
more substantial than ever. The
scorched and withered leaves of the
trees in Chicago's prettiest park have
long since given place to emerald foil
age. The great calamity of 1871 is
almost forgotten, and the city which
was then sunk in the depths of despair
Is now more prosperous and hopeful
than at any period in its remarkable
history.
The great soldier of the rebellion had
scarcely breathed his last before the
project of erecting a fitting monument
to his memory was preached here,
It was scarcely suggested before
the necessary amount of money
was raised by popular subscrip-
ton. The complete work would
have been exhibited to the public one
year ago had not the great casting met
with an accident From the very first

Sidney Lanier. The society is limited
by its laws to 20 members and will
