Democrats and Grand Army Men.

Your democratic organ jumps at a
chance to belittle the veterans of the
civil war, particularly if the belong to
the Grand Army of the Republic. One
Of these organs has an attack of hyster-
les because an Ohio Grand Army man,
being convicted OF murder in the Sec
onp degree by jury on which were
four other Grand Army men, took of
the button he had disgraced and threw
it at the jury in the box. Democratic
organs have no difficulty in putting
themselves in q ,nvict's place and
thinking his thoughts for him, and
they are sure that that convict meant
to rebuke his four comrades on the
jury for not preventing his conviction
and erecting the G. A. r. into body
above the law. 1t is possible. however,
than he only then realized that he had
disgraced his button, but even IL he
thought the deep and dark thoughts at
tributed to him against the republic
which Grand Army men saved some
years ago while democrats we're fight
ing it In at least the ratio of four TO
one), the republics danger is not very
awful so long as Grand Army men vote
iour to one against any such class priv
ilege.-New York Press.

A CowardIy Murder

EMPoRIA, August 18.-Saturday night
about IL o'clock. bud" White went to
the farm of James Slis her, a well-to-do
young man, three miles north of this
city, and called him from his bed, told
him that he had come to deliver q note.
He requested him to light lamp.
White was standing in the door, and
when Slisher struck match to light
a lamp, White exclaimed: Damn it,
take thatp and fired a revolver, the
bullet taking effect in Slisher's right
side. Slis her, though severely
wounded, grappled with White
and finally succeeded in pulling him
out of the house. White fired a
second shot with no effect While
Slisher was trying to shut the door
White, who retained his revolver, fired
a third time, the ball penetrating the
door near the lock and entering and
passing through Slisher's neck near the
throat. White was then heard run
cape and has not been seen or heard of
since.
No conclusion can be reached as to
the motive that inspired the deed.
Both White and Slisher are young men
who have been brought up in this coun-
ty, the sons OF wellknown and respected
farmers.
Slisher and his wife and three
young children, the youngest
being but SIX weeks old, were in
the house. Mrs. Slisher showed COM
mendable pluck. After hastily doing
what she could for her wounded hus-
band. she locked the house ran quar-
ter OF mile to her fathers house and
obtained assistance.
Meanwhile, Slisher, believing that
he was mortally wounded, with great
difficulty secured sheet of paper and a
pencil and wrote statement in which
he alluded to Bud" White as his as
sassin, and commended his wife and
children to the care of his parents. The
statement was written family and so
blood stained that 1t could not be easily
deciphered.
Later reports says Slisher is dead.

Gould Indisposed,

CHICAGO, Ill, Aug. ls.-The Inter
Ocean this morning presents the follow
Ing from its New York correspondents:
SIT has been kept secret, but Jay Gould,
the wizard OF Wall street, the man who
can, when he so wills, do more to upset
the markets of the world than banks or
bankers, is sick and has gone to Idaho
for treatment.
The story begins back at the last
meeting Of the general managers which
was held at the Windsor hotel in this
city. Mr.. Gould, as has been his Gus
tom. was in attendance It was noticed
that he took less apparent interest than
usual in the discussion going on and
some of those who sat near him OBJ
served that occasionally he leaned
rather heavily upon the table before
which he was sitting. Later on
slowly close and his head to drop
on the part of all present as it was seen
greatest precaution he was removed to
summoned. 1t was not until night the
pulSlCldu III 20 COucChJcu W nave
him taken to his own house.
$50 many and various are the inter
ests supposed to be dependent upon the
health and life of this man that every
effort was made to keep all knowledge
of what occurred from the public As
soon as the doctors thought him able to
travel he started for Soda Springs, Ida
no, where he now is suppose to De.
"The gentleman who told this story
as your correspondent now gives it to
the readers of the Inter Ocean Is prom
ineut in railroad affairs and was pres
ent and saw what happened at
the Windsor hotel. His words are
corroborated by the fact that Mr..
Gould has been seen about none of his
accustomend haunts since the day OF
the meeting. Even when he IS at home
in the city he is kept so hedged about
that it is almost impossible TO verify
anything that is said of him or about
him and nobody can be reached at Soda
Springs by wire to verify the present
story.
"Those who have observed Mr.. Gould
lately have not failed to see that his
slight frame has been growing slighter
and that his movements indicate that
the intense activity Of years was be-
ginning to tell upon him. People will
not be greatly surprised at the story of
the Windsor hotel, but there will be
great anxiety and Wall street will be
disturbed until news comes from Soda
Springs"

Dun's Weekly Review of Trade.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-R. @. Dun &
Co. g weekly review of trade says:
The prohibition of the expectation of
rye by Russia because OF the official
declaration that famine is impending
has suddenly affected the grain mar
kets of the whole world. Russia usually
exports about $4,000, 900 bushels of
rye and men reason that other grain in
large quantities will be required. Not
enough attention Is paid to the fact
that European consumption may be
greatly reduced by high prices, and
speculation goes on the theory that
every person must have 80 many bush
els or there will be starvation. Before
the year is over this notion wal prob
ably be corrected. Wheat rose 81 cents
on moderate sales and heavy operator
at Chicago went down. Corn rose ST
and oats a cents, with small sales.
Crop prospects grow brighter every
day and with the assurance that the
country will not only have enormous
supplies of grain, but market for it at
good prices, business is improving
Throughout the north. The movement
merchants are buying more freely and
bIclT puTCIldccS are Iclb NY WuOl6Sdl6Tb
and manufacturers.
Speculation in stocks, has been dull
and tended downward, but oil has ad-
vanced / cents for the week. Exports
OF wheat for the week have been three
times last years and western receipts
average about a million bushels daily.
Tin has declined here to $500 for Au-
gust, though higher in London, and
sales OF lake copper are reported at
s11.95. Labor troubles in the Omaha
smelling works have advanced the
price OF lead to At cents. The advance
in prices during the past week has
averaged nearly 2 per cent. for all COM
modities.
The money market here continues
easy on call and commercial paper is
rather more saleable here and in other
eastern cities, but there is still vague
sense of uneasiness. Foreign trade con-
tinues to improve, for while imports de-
cline largely the exports for the two
weeks of August have exceeded by
nearly 10 per cent. those OF the CORE
spending weeks Of last year. If Europe
has to send cash for all the food it will
require this year it is probable that
this country will not lack money long.

The sub-rreasury schsns.

1
The president Of the Missouri alliance
Mr.. o. s. Hall, has presented one Of the
most forcible arguments that has yes
been made against the sub-treasury
scheme. He discusses the subject from
the farmers point OF view, in q plain
and practical manner; and it Is to be
regretted that he cannot fellow after
Senator PETER and expose the sophis-
tries and falshoods of that noisy dema-
gogue. The scheme Is intended, Its
advocates say, to give fexibihty to the
volume of currency, making 1t plenti.
full or scarce according to the wants and
interests of the people; but Mr.. Hall
shows that the sort OF hexibility thus
proposed would prove to be decidedly
detrimental to the farmers. For in
stance he points out, when more money
Is wanted to handle q crop, this scheme
would not furnish 1t until the crop had
frst been put in government ware
house where 10 could not be handled.
The crop must be locked up, that is to
say, before the money can be obtained.
Then, the money 50 added to the circu-
lating medium would by its ABUNDANCE
increase prices Of every kind. The
farmers grain would be safely housed,
and he would have his currency to rep
resent 1t; but before he can sell his
grain he must return this currency,
thus decreasing the general volume.
and making prices correspondingly
lower.
1t Is q well-kuown fact that prices are
practically regulated by the amount Of
money in circulation; and the effect Of
this sub-tressury project as Mr.. Hall
explains, would be to make money pleG-
tiful and prices high at q time when
the farmer is buyer, and to make
money scarce and prices low at Q time
when he Is a seller. There are other
weak places In the plan, but this one
alone Is sufficient to condemn it in the
eyes Of the farming element. 1t offers
nothing to the debtor that is worth
having at the price that he must pay
for 1t. The most that it promises is an
increase Of currency under conditions
that imply ultimate loss instead Of gain
to those who pledge their crops for 1t.
That kind Of money is not desirable, and
could not be employed in a safe and
satisfactory way. The fuctuatien OF
prices would be source OF continual
trouble and peril. and the spectators
would have better chance then than
they have now to control the markets.
Any intelligent citizen who studies the
matter for himself and with reference
to his own business must see that the
sub-treasury scheme of providing relief
for the unlucky is sham and a mock
cry. The whole financial system Of the
government can not be changed to suit
the crude and fantastic notions of the
alliance prophets. That system has
been In operation for many years and
through various emergencies, and its
general effects have been advantageous
to all classes Of the people. 1t is better
to let we'll enough alone than to take such
risks as are involved in this new plan
of reform, and the farmers should be
the last men to countenance an expert
ment that might 80 easily end in q ca
tastrophe. -Globe-Democrat.
