The Opinion quite agrees with a GER
tain French financier who says that "the
United States made a serious mistake in
adopting limited silver act. They
should have either passed an unlimited
coinage act or none at ALL" But still, as
Senator Teller says, by the passage OF a
limited coinage act, it was great point
gainod, and in the meantime would show
to the country the Importance and de-
mand for silver. The country is now
ready for unlimited coinage OF silver,
for really it is the only money this coun-
try has any considerable amount OF.
The s5OOOO,OOO of gold exported to the
old country, while not particularly en-
barrassing this country, has had the ef-
feet at least to show the gold bugs that
without silver this country would be-
bankrupt. Silver is the foundation on
which this country now rests To re-
move that foundation will result in the
whole structure falling to the ground,
More silver will strengthen the govern
ment, and when the old world powers get
hard up they can always rely upon the
United States to help them out-Puebio

The new reform administration in
Denver is now being investigated by the
grand jury. They have already done as
much crooked work as the old admins
tration. The expenses Of nearly all the
departments except those controlled by
the Boards appointed by Governor Routt,
have been increased. Perhaps the peo-
pie who are aching for reform will some
day learn that it never has been and is
not likely ever to be obtained by electing
Democrats to Office

The courts in Denver have refused to

We hope that Secretary Foster knows
what he is talking about when he says.
as he does, that England and Germany
are soon to turn over in favor Of bi-met-
allism. Premier Salisbury's utterance on
the silver question, few days ago, it is
true, affords some grounds for an as
sumption Of this sort, 30 far as regards
England: but some doubt has beel
thrown on the authenticity of this de-
liverance. The country has often thought
in the past ten or twelve years that the
leading nations of Europe were ready to
step in and help us solve the silver prob
lem, but practical inquiry always showed
that the notion was baseless There are
some indications now, though, tkft Eng

The Democratic papers during the last
National campaign continually held be-
fore the people the fact that their Com
missioner of Pensions, General Black,
granted more pensions than any man
who had previously held that office.
Now since Republican Commissioner
has beaten his record they denounce the
entire pension system as fraud and
robbery. According to their present
declaration on that subject General
Black, whom they SO delight to honor,
must have been one Of the worst Com
missioners, and Colonel Dudley, whom
they so delight to denounce, was one OF
the best.

Silver is now advancing rapidly in val
ue and has again passed the dollar mark.
Business men as well as officials of the
Treasury claim that the present advance
will be Of a permanent nature. This
has moved one Of our exchanges to make
the following pertinent suggestion:
"Director Leech thinks that the rise
in the price Of silver is permanent and
progressive. The same may be said as
to the rise Of the Democratic opposition
Cleveland on account Of his anti-silver
views"

in ITS claims that the United States is

are never in their element except when

Tavlm Facts.

Last year we imported about S900y yO0O,-
600 worth of farm produce. This will be
considerably lessened in the future,
thanks to the new tariff.
Great Britain has spent e275, 900 in
bounties during the last 100 years.
Why should not the United States show
some Of this generosity to the crippled
shipping industry?
In 1861 we made 5,164 gross tons Of
pigiron; Great Britain made 8, ,8B, $50 tons
the same year. Last year We made ,10O,
900 gross tons, and Great Britain made
less than 100000 tons.
QDuring the twenty five years ending
with 1889 we sent the sum of e320,073,-
362 to Great Britain for tin plates. A
good portion of this amount will go to
American labor and for American mate
rails.
Subsidies are paid annually to the
amount Of 100000 by England, s2,OO0,-
600 by France, 100000 by Germany,
100000 by Italy, s2,5O0OOo by Spain
and more or less by every nation having
merchant marine.
The failures of the year 1e57, after ten
years of free trade, exceeded those OF
1890, after thirty years Of pr'N NQtetion, by
100000, although the amou II OF capi-
tai invested then was not NOR b than one
third what it is now.
Our population is per cenit or one
twentieth the population of tShe globe.
we consume 80 per cent. or one third OF
all produced. Why should we bgive up
this market for foreigners? Why should
we not manufacture ourselves?
Our annual average foreign traaee IN
the years 1856 go under free trade ar
iff was s616, ,12s, 900 or soo.90 per capits
and during the period 1886 80, under a
protective tariff, the average was 81 49,
100000, or s24.3O per capita.
Twenty five years ago the idea Of pro-
ducing silks in this country was laughed
at; to-day we are one of the largest man
ufacturers of silk goods in the world, and
the prices are about one-half what they
were and the goods themselves much
better.
Our agricultural products and mann
factures amount to about $4,000 O0,-
coo annually. We import only sbout
SSOO,OOO,OOO worth, half of which comes
in free. What tariff argument there
is in these figures. Why should We not
protect all that we can make and pro-
duce ourselvesy
II wish that cursed country (America)
had never been discovered" said John
Bright, "because," added the great free
trader, "they have no taxes in proportion
TO their population. The farmers in
America have no rent, no tithes, no poor
rates-in short, they till the soil, but
own the land they till"
We consume over 80 per cent. OF our
agricultural products at home now, and
as soon as we get to making tin plate,
plushes, buttons and many other things
made possible by the Mckinley bill, our
farmers will find q marlset right at their
doors for all they can produce, and at
good prices, too.
Some idea of the magnitude Of our
home trade can be had from the traffic
Of the Sault Ste. Marie canal, which.con-
meets Lake Superior with the waterways
to the eastward. The freight carried, in,
1890 was valued at slO,221, $4,000 This
remember is a single inland lake with a
half dozen competing grailroads.-Denrer
