public opinion and getting things ready
for the sudden springing of the sensa-
tional issue before snow flies
And according to the same authority
Blaine is not sin it.. The president is
running the state department during
Blaine's absence, and is getting ready
to spring this issue as one of his own
invention, and a great deal bigger and
better one than Mr.. Blaine's little re-
clprocity issue. In short, the story is
that Mr.. Harrison means to outiingo
lingo Jim and beat the great sensation
al republican statesman at his own
game of sensationalisn.
1t is an interesting story as it stands,
but 1t is hardly to be accepted without
some grains of salt. Mr. Harrison is
not generally supposed to be the kind
of man to play such risky political
games or to try conclusions with such
an adept as the Maine statesman in the
practice of the art sensational Besides,
the assumption upon which the whole
story rests is that in going into the
small business of reciprocity with the
poorest customers Mr.. Blaine has aban-
doned protection as an issue. He has
done nothing of the kind, as he has
said himself. He has only proposed to
enlarge the territory in which the
American tariff beneficiary can collect
his toll. That is all. No doubt many
of the Mckinley politicians would be
glad to get Mr.. Blaine out of the way,
and still more glad to amuse the people
with some bogus sensational issue next
year, and prevent them if possible from
having a chance to express their opin-
ion squarely on the Mckinley system
of spoliation. These worthless would
be glad enough to make the president
party to this little game, and they
are no doubt playing on his ambition
to that end. But if Mr. Harrison has
the boldness and recklessness to play
the hand he has been greatly misjudged
by his conference.-the Herald.

name it must have been written by
some subsidized dreamer who has not
read the daily papers for the last six

If Maj. Mckinley were a con.
scientious man he would denounce the
fraud which was perpetrated in his
name at Piqua, o. He is now at least
fully aware that he assisted in the
making of no genuine tin plate at that
place and that the incident which has
been SO extensively described and illus
trated by the republican papers was
deliberate trick to catch votes for him
in Ohio. The whole thing was soon
exposed and every one knows that the
so-called piece of tin plate which he
assisted in making was a mere piece OF

still trying to make capital out Of the

The Secretary of the Treasury is Entirely
Satisfied with the Outcome of the Pro-
gramme for Extending the Four and-a-
Halt Per Cent Bonds-The Dissemination

NEW YORK, Oct. "A special dis
| patch from Washington to the Evening
Post says: Secretary Foster, in re-
| Spouse to the inquiry whether he was
satisfied with the result of his pro-
gramme for extending the AZ per cents

Il am entirely satisfied. Matters

Taking everything into considera-
ton. do you think you have done any
better by making the rate per cent.

the bankers that settled the rate at
that fgure?"
We have done much better-very
much better. In my judgment we
could not have extended a million of

but we should, l am convinced, have
been able to do far less than we have
done. No, if / had the whole business

and see how matters have shaped them
selves, l do not believe l should
be willing to change single
thing. 1t is true we have not
increased the circulation of bank notes,
which l agreed with the New York
bankers in thinking a desirable object;
but we have done what answers the
same purpose-we have, with every
bond redeemed, increased the total cir
culation by just SO much money. We
have done this, however, without
draining our supply of gold as was at
first feared we would. All of the money
put out of the treasury in redeeming
bonds has passed into the hands of the
people"

The people have a right to all the
money there is except what may be
needed to administer the affairs of the
government. The condition of the
country is healthiest when the amount
lying in the governments vaults is not
much in excess of current needs. AS it
is, in spite of decreased revenues and a
reduced balance, we have been able to
send from New York and Washington
to the west, where money is most
needed, S32, 900, 900 in the nine months
of this year, as against Il total of only
S22, 900, 900 in the whole of last year.
There are a hundred millions more in
the peoples pockets now than there

thing to rejoice at and not to worry
over"

Trains on all roads to St. Louis have been
carrying crowds of pleasure seekers for the
last month, but the great week OF the 1891
Carnival is now at hand, and there will be
thousands more ffocking to the already well
filled city during the next few days The Fair
extends from October to TO- and is to be {.
much grander gathering than ever before. The
new management has arranged for series of
novel attractions, including sensational horse
leaping contests in which horses which have
won numerous prizes in the East will COM
pete. The exhibits generally are much more
varied and valuable, and in every department
of agriculture and manufacture there will be
new triumphs. The contests in the amphi-
theater are alone worth crossing two States to
see, especially nearly all the roads are sell
ing round trip tickets for one fare.
The exposition closes October II. Those who
have seen ST. Louis annual expositions in the
past can easily understand what the 1891 effort
Is like when they realize that the t-rmphs OF
former years have been easily excelled and
that visitors from all parts of the world are de-
lighted with the solid splendor and princely
magnifcence OF the displays. The art depart
ment alone is an exposition in itself, many OF
Inc pictures being OF international renOwn.
The mi ain aisles are crowded at all hours of the
day with visitors with a keen appreciation OF
the bea utiful, and the mechanical department

DIFFERENT NOW.
The Republican Candidate and His Mode
of Procedure.

The Republican Candidate and His Mode
| of Procedure.
| Time was when candidate on the
republican ticket went before his con-
| stituents with the party platform I'M
der his arm and, following a long-es-
| tablished custom, pledged himself to
certain measures more or less of re-
! formatory nature. But that time has
| passed-in Pennsylvania at least
! Now down in the Keystone state,
when a candidate is presented to his
friends, he does not say he is going to
inaugurate this or that reform. He
confines himself to a solemn pledge
that he will try not to rob the state of
its millions, will try his level best to
be honest, and attempts to impress up
on his hearers that he has sufficient
moral character to overcome tempta-
ton. Thus do we hear the republican
candidate for city treasurer down in
Philadelphia define his position. But
he goes further, as will be seen in this
excerpt from his letter of acceptance:
I further desire to say to you and to the pub
lie at large that have not given to anyone
any pledge or pledges other than those which
I now make, to do my full duty in the highest
and best sense of the word. and if elected I
will not protect or cover up anything in or per-
tanning to the office, past, present future but
do my whole duty in a fearless. honest and i'm
partial manner, so to warrant at the end of
my term the appreciation of my fellow citizens
which will faithfully strive to merit and hope
to receive.
The Thou shalt not steal cam
paign started by the democrats will
glut the market with republican pro-
fessions of honesty. The last repub-
lican treasurer of Philadelphia made
similar professions. During the next
fifteen years he will stick to his word
and the penitentiary. Chicago

occur. All the corn. except perhaps

to this politician the protection issue

GETTING IN EARNEST.
The Missouri Pacific Must Relay Its Tracks
with Steel Rails.

TOPEKA, Kas.. Oct. 2.-Yesterday the
state board of railroad commissioners
requested Gov. Humphrey to bring suit
to compel the Missouri Pacific Railway
Co. to relay the tracks of the Kansas
Central with steel rails, and General
Manager S. III. H. Clark was notified
that excuses would no longer be taken
for his failure to comply with the
boards orders.
The commissioners went before the
governor and presented statement of
the condition of the road from the time
it was built up to the present, showing
the position of the road in ignoring all
orders to relay the road with steel
rails until a fatal accident had hap
pened, and then they only paid enough
attention to frame an excuse for not
repairing the road
Gov. Humphrey turned the matter
over to Attorney Ives at once with in
structions to commence action to en-
force the orders of the commissioners.
