There is in the world-not a stand
ing army, but a constantly moving
body of 100000 men, who march and
counter-march day and night, through
heat and cold, from years end to
years end. Every year they have
1000 killed and 20, 1000 wounded. One
man in 357 lost his life last year, one in
every 80 was wounded, and the total
by the operators OF the army was
1923 killed and 25,309 wounded.
Upon the soldiers of this army 3,000,-
900 of our people depend for their liv-
ing. This army and its soldiers are
the railroad employees of America.

Must be Free Coinage.

Senator Jones says that the great
need of tire country is o money.
This is a simple statement Of a fact.
The country needs more money and
more popular money and cheaper
money. 1t is a crying shame that
with our mountains teeming with
veins of silver, the industry of mining
for it is crippled and silver kept in the
background as money at the instance
OF English spectators and Wall street
gold bugs aided by a few American
traitors to the people in the halls of
Congress. Subterfuges and expert
ments there have been enough Of. 1t
must be free coinage or nothing

Did it ever occur to any one that if
the Constitutional Convention had
been defeated at the polls there would
probably have been less hair-splitting
about the counting Of the vote? When
the question was submitted before and
defeated, the Justices OF the Supreme
Court didn't hesitate TO canvass the
returns and there was no question in
regard to their authority to do SO.
There is no question concerning the
right Of the Legislature to canvass and
annouce the vote or that it is their
duty to do so. The only question is
whether it will have the disposition TO
carry out the will of the people or
whether it can be influenced by the
political bosses to defeat it.-Virginia

VIII Our Indians Fixht-

Dobe John, a prominent Indian o.
Winnemucca, says the Central Ne

enger train to counsel with Captain
Bob regarding the restless disposition
of the tribes in Central and Northerr
Nevada. Some keen observers de
clare that if the young bucks in Ne
vada can see their way clear they
will HE to the unsettled country in the

Helps the Farmer.

The Reno Journal says: The Ne
vadan says Beowawe is the forward
ing point on the railroad where mer-
chandise and lumber are transferred
from the cars on to large freight
wagons to be hauled to Cortez. The
ranchers in the neighborhood of Beo-
wave, on account OF the heavy team
ing, find a ready market for their hay
and grain. This is one OF the ways in
which mining helps the farmer.

nsmocratic Kicker.

Most OF the Democrats in the State
are in favor OF a Constitutional Con-
vention. There is one here in Vir-
ginia City, however, who isn't. He
objects to it on account OF the cost and
thinks it ought to be postponed at
least until after the repeal Of the Nc
Kinley bill. Well, perhaps after all,
his objection is about as sensible as
any Of the others that have been
urged in opposition to the measure

A Good Appointment.

r. Sadler, our energetic merchant,
and defeated candidate for Lieutenant
Governor at the recent election. a few
days ago received from Constable Joe
Ravell the appointment of Deputy
Constable. Sadler said that il he
could not get elected to an Office he
could get one by appointment. Con-
stable Ravell could not have made a
better appointment, and all wrong
doors will have TO mind their P's and
Q's, as Boss Sadler will not stand any
monkey business from them.

Chef Batchelder a few days ago
assayed a piece of gold ore from the
Prospect Mountain Tunnel. 1t
weighed f~orty-seyen and seventeenth
grammes and contained about thirty
dollars. The assay value of the piece
of ore was $57s,7 46 II per ton in gold.
The ore generally found on the west
side of Prospect Mountain contains a
great deal more gold than silver. This
peice was OF extraordinary richness.

Best Of the bargain.

The Carson Appeal thinks that Jones
and Stewart made contract with the
Democrats that if they (the DEM
ocratsl would support free coinage
they (the Nevada Senators) would op-
pose the Force bill. AS all OF the
Democratic Senator'S are in favor of
free coinage anyhow, if the Appeals
surmise is correct, they got a heap the
best of Jones and Stewart in the trade.

VIII Hold Their seats.

Nobody need be uneasy about the
tenure of Office of the District Judges.
The alarmists who are specializing as
to the con~stitutionality Of their cleo
ton have more wish than judgment
in their thoughts. The appointment
of Judge Wells, whether or not it was
constitutional, does not affect the posi-
ton of the four Judges recently
elected who were elected as directed
by the Legislature and will hold their
seats during the term.-Enterprise.

Mrs. b. BRANDT.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1891-05-26
THE DAKOTA IDEA AGAIN.

The GLOBE asked the Tribune a
question the other day, and the Tribune
has answered it. The GLOBE wanted
to know why, if it were true that the re-
mOyal of the tax on sugar had reduced
the burdens of the American people
S70,000.000 annually, and this is a good
thing, it would not also be good thing
to take off twice $70,0O0.O0O in some
other schedule than that of sugar.
The Tribune says that no one short of
fool could ask such a questio on, and
then it gives the answer. Here it is:
The tax on sugar, it says, was burden
because we did not produce enough
sugar to satisfy the country's demand,
1t was therefore right to remove it. But
in other things we do produce enough,
not only to satisfy the country'S de-
mand, but also so much that their price
is kept low by the competition of native
producers. In these the tariff imposes
no burden, and ought to be retained.
TEis is the newest and most electrify-
ing of all protectionist insanities. What
it means is that if a commodity needs
protection to encourage its production,
it ought not to be protected; but that if
it is strong enough to stand by itself,
and is produced at figure below It's
cost abroad. so that it needs no protec-
ton. i'll that case we ought to pile up
rampant of tariff sky-high, so as to save
it from foreign competition. The GLOBE
always supposed that the object of pro-
tectionism was to hedge about our in
FAINT industries with encouragement
until they were able to stand alone.
With this sort of protectionism the
Democracy has always been in SYM
pathy. By reading the Tribune, how
ever, it now learns that this is all
wrong. Infant industries should be
left to look out for themselves. The
wards of protectionism are the enter
prises which are SO mature and so firmly
established that they need no help. Is
not this remarkable?
Somebody in Minneapolis ought to
put barbed wire fence around the man
who writes the tariff editorials for the
Tribune. A steam pillow does well
enough, perhaps, on wheat field, but
it is dangerous thing to have at large
in newspaper office.
