Not q Dollar.

A Baltimore contemporary urges Maryland
to set about making preparations for good
exhibit at the Chicago Columbia fair, and
winds up by saying;
"A suitable display for such occasion will
consume much time in IFS preparation and cost
a large sum of money.
Not dollar should be expended by Mary
land or her chief city for such purpose. The
location of the fair away off upon the north
western verge of the Union, and the post
ponement of the exposition until 1898, has
shorn it of its national character, ofits histor'
ical interest and made it merely local. Neither
the state nor the city would be one whit bet
Ter off for being represented at Chicago. In,
deed. they would both be worse off by reason
of the expenditure of time, labor and money,
without the possibility of any adequate return.
The resources Of the city or state would not
and could not possibly be developed by an
exhibition in tn at iar.away corner fthe Union
and it is idle to claim that they would. Mary
land rural productions and Maryland manu-
features are in no way and in ne degree de-
pendent upon anything relating to Chicago
aud the proposed fair. Instead of being
anxious about representation there. as
alleged by our contemporary, the people of
Maryland are utterly Indifferent aboutit ifnot
opposed to it in toto. Neither the state nor
the city has any money to be squandered in
sueh manner, and the tax payers would not
sanction any appropriation for such purpose.
Historical and sentimental considerations
have no more force than business and tinan
cial What does this proud old common
wealth. one of the original thirteen, need to
look to Chicago for, in expectation of an en-
haneement of her Historical Importance.
The suggestion is puerile. Her historical am
portance is blazoned in characters of living
I. light upon the annals of the country, and her
, absence from the mammon- getting exhibit at
:, Chicago would not tarnish its lustre in the
{ least No, let not dollar be spent for Chi
cago, and as she insisted on making this fair
! a local instead of national one, and was in
I strumental in having it located there instead
I of at the capital of the nation, why let her en-
{, Joy il in her own seclusion. 1t was designed
!. for Chicago, and for Chicago only. Let the
: rest the country stand aloof.

The Force Bill.

The Force bill was scotched if not killed on
Monday. Eight Republicans and the solid
Democratic vote was given to take up the
silver bill when the unfinished business was
reached Senator George, of Mississippi, had
the floor on the measure, but yielded to Sena'
tor Stewart, of Nevada, to make motion to
take up the Silver bill. Senator Hoar, the
Force bill leader, was so surprised for few
moments he was speechess. He recovered
shortly and began to interpose objections, but
Senator German made the point that the mo-
ton was not debateable and insisted upon it,
which was sustained by the presiding officer,
Mr.. Harris, of Tennessee, and on a yea and
nay vote the Senate decided by "a to 20 to
take up the Silver bill. The Force bill,
therefore, went on the calendar, and the silver
bill remains the unfinished business until 1t
is disposed Of The debate on the measure
is likely to be protracted, and 1t is very I'M
certain whether or not the Force bill will be
gotten before the Senate again. Only forty
five working days of the session remain, and
every one of the appropriation bills have to
be acted upon, while there are other measures
that are more important to some of the ma
iority than the Force bill.
Senator Hoar is thoroughly disguised, and
believes that his pet scheme is dead and the
Republican party with it.
The Washington correspondent of the Bal
timore SIN says Senator German conceived
and managed the scheme, and remarks that
he was warmly congratulated on the Demo
cratic side. Ifhe has saved the country from
such an iniquitous measure he deserves al
the praise and gratitude that can be bestowed

Gripping Business.
Roston Globe.

In the recent state of the money market the
people can see one effect Of Republican tnan-
ciering. That party has insisted on collecting
ment needed. The surplus has either been
piled up in the Treasury or squandered in ex
travagant legislation, or used to pay off the
Governments bonds many years before they
are due, adding premium equal to six or
seven years unearned interest, instead of sub
tracing a discount, as any private concern
would have done. This retirement of bonds
has necessarily diminished the national bank
circulation, which is based on the bonds, and
which is the nearest approach to a free, elastic
currency that the country possesses. But for
this enforced retirement the banks would have
been able to issue money enough, secured by
Government bonds, to bridge over the diff

Sunday Politics.

,u The Baltimore Sunday papers seem to feel
We obligatory upon them TO spin yarn on local
esnd state politics for the delectation of their
Tseaders. and if facts DO not supply readable
hrtiee, they draft upon their imaginaiions for
hhe deficit, aud the draft is quite large, about
iihis time, respecting candidates for Governor,
Mayor, and other positions. What they know
hpon the subject is only exceeded by what
,ehey don't know, but they write with refresh
ing assurance all the same, presuming upon
he easy credulity of those for whom they
write. To write and publish, however, is
heir business, and their business they pursue,
nlihough they can see no further into the
traditional milestone than those who pick it,
rhateYer pretentiens they may make.

The Day of Wrath.
From the philadelphla Times.

II the 1,152,O41 pending claims and the
other hundreds of thousands crowding in at
the rate of nearly 10000 week shall be dis
posed of by allowing nearly so per cent Of
them, as the record Of the last week reported
shows. our pension list must soon reach the
appalling number of 1850, 900, and it will
require much more than 5000, 900 900 annu-
ally to pay them. The people are just begin
ming to wrestle with the pension problem,
and when they get down to horizontal view
of an annual treasury deficit of more than
500, 1000, 600 to pay pensions, more than ONE
half of which are unmerited, there must be a
fearful tearing up of the whole prohigate and
shameful pension system.

From the Omaha Bee.

The day before the recent storm in Kansas
John Brooks, farmer of Logan county, went
to Russell Springs. Knowing that there was
insufficient provision against cold and hunger
at his home he tried to get back with succor,
but no trains were running, and he did not
reach home for several days. During his
prolonged absence his wife tried to reach her
nearest neighbor, distance of four miles,
but succumbed in the road, and was found in
an insensible condition and nearly frozen,
while the babe she carried in her arms was
frozen to death. The wife, it is feared, will
die from the effects of the exposure.

Captain S. S. Leach, of the Mississippi
River Commission, says that it has been esti-
mated by skilled engineers that $4,000, 900
would pay for a levee system on the Mississippi
river that, il properly watched and maintained,
would be safe against flood. The cost of
maintenance is estimated at less than 81 ,000,.
600 per annum. The effect of such system,
he said, would be to revoutionize the carrying
trade of the river and redeem $4,000 square
miles of the finest agricultural land. The
nature of the work is such that it cannot be
left to individual enterprise. The government
must take entire charge or a neglected point
will let in the food and destroy miles of good
leyee.

A terrible snowstorm, accompanied by
winds of hurricane force, ragged on Tuesday
on the Gulf of Triest and along its shores.
The storm extended from Capo d'Istria to
Venice. The severest cold weather known
to the present generation now prevails in the
olive growing region of Italy. A violent
rain storm, accompanied by lightning, de-
scended upon Rome in the evening. The
rainfall was so heavy that in the lower town
easements were flooded. The palace of the
propaganda was struck by lightning, but not
seriously damaged.

Press Comments on the Behring
Sea Controversy.
From the New York Herald.


The papers now given to the public only
serve to emphasize Mr.. Blaine's inability to
maintain the claim he advanced and his mis-
take in refusing to submit the question to fair
arbitration. To put forward a claim to
monopoly beyond the three-mle limit with
out being prepared to show either that Behring
Sea is a closed sea or that national control
may be asserted on the high seas was simply
to invite diplomatic failure and national
humiliation.
From the PhilGdelphia Record.
After refusal to arbitrate this question or
to settle it, nothing would be left but to send
an armed squadron into Behring Sea to seize
and confiscate all the vessels catching seals
in its waters or to permit the destruction Of
these animals to go on without abatement
The former alternative would mean war for .
claim which has no support in international
law, and for an object utterly unworthy of
conflict The latter would mean the speedy
extinction Of the seals. Mr.. Blaine vastly
mistakes the temper Of the American people
if he imagine that their war spirit could be
aroused oger quarrel In behalf of the Alaska
Fur Seal Monopoly.
From the Philadelphia Press.
If we wish to close the seal. fisheries we
must do it either by force of arms, which is a
brutal and would probably prove an ineffect-
i've way, or else by International agreement
AN agreement relating to the present not to
the past 1t is gratifying to observe that Mr..
Blaine has at length come to a realization of
this fact. There appears no good reason why
he should not at once accept Lord Salisbury's
offer of arbitration.
From the Baltimore sun.
The tone Of Mr.. Blaipe's dispatches to our
minister at London will hardly commend
itself to the sober sense of the American peo-
pie. II our foreign RELATIONS could be man
aged without reference to the exigencies of
ambitious politicians, the Behring sea con
troversy would doubtless have been settled
long ago on the just and rational lines marked
out by Secretary Bayard. Mr.. Cleveland's
Secretary of State claimed all that could be
Justly claimed for the United States in the
Northern Pacific under the well established
principles of international law. Mr.. Blaine,
however, has chosen TO contend for exclusive
Jurisdiction beyond the three mile limit, and
when driven from that contention has obsti
nately continued to assert claims for which
he could offer no consistent defense.

The singular more silver, more bonds, more

its sanction shows in what a desperate strait
the majority conceive themselves to be placed.
After all the compromises of last session on

Having shaken business confidence to the
verge of panic with crazy experiments, they
must dose trade with more of the same medl.
cine to restore confidence. The Caucus Com
mittee's plan is a last despairing effort to save

The Indian Question.



Of course the Indian is always to blame.
He neither votes nor owns newspaper. his
opinions or wishes are never consulted. de
has been starved, robbed and lied to until he
has no right to expect anything else, and he
should be at once put to death or tamely sub
nit to an amending succession of Rogers that
will be inflicted on him whether he wants
them or not. Yet we are still Christian
people, for murder, starvation and death are
still the portion of the heather, as it was IN
the DAYS OF Pizzaro, Cortez and the noble
pilgrims of New England.
From the Chicago Herald.
As the present Indian policy of the Govern,
ment is product of an era of hypocrisy and
vllainy in high places, tits to be hoped that the
reawakening of the people as manifested at
the recent election will prove to be OF sum,
cient duration to bring about long needed
reformation in the Indian service. The
Army must kill the Indians and be killed by
them when misunderstanding arise. There
fore, let it deal with them in the first IN
stance and see how soon, with the motive re-
moved, war will cease.
From the Omaha Bee.
The country is getting a very costly lesson
in connection with the Indian problem, but
perhaps it will not be wholly without com
pensatory results. At any rate, it makes a
demand for earnest, rational and unprejudic
ed consideration.
From the Louisville Courier-Journal
If the Republican leaders had looked more

1t would be cheaper for this Nation t

ate and arm them and then order another de
partment to reduce them to a state of perma
nent peace.
