ing medium, against free silver, against
any relief to the money stringency I'M
der which the producers of the land
agonize even to the sweating of blood.
The two old parties never drew so
near together in their platforms as
they have done this year. The tariff
plank of the republicans was drawn
with a Mephistophelean eleverness that
defies analysis. The democratic tariff
plank, as Endorsed by Cleveland and
presented by the majority of the COM
mittee, was the twin Of the one drawn
at Minneapolis. This was lost, and
franker statement of high-tax tariff
fallacy adopted. But the democratic
platform is, remember, Cleveland, and
democratic policy will go no farther
than he says.
This is the truth that, in connection
with the silver issue, makes his choice
the fatal blunder of the democracy.
Cleveland has this above lesser poll
ticians, that he stands firm to his con-
victions. He is against bi-metallism.
His letter on silver, read at the Cooper
hall meeting, is the policy he will insist
on maintaining. In this the leaders of
the democracy are with him. They
have no use for the free silver issue.
The platform declaration is a subter-
fuge that lacks even cunning. It will
deceive no One.-EcOnOmiSt.

The nomination of Cleveland and
Stevenson neatly closes up the conven-

monopoly parties-two minds with but
single thought, two hearts that beat
as one. This year has seen in the ma
tional conventions a power mightier
than that of the bosses. That power
which indicated its choice long prior to
the assembling of the conventions and
to careful observers it was no secret
who the heads of the tickets would be.
The bosses made a determined, old
fashioned politician fight for Blaine,
but the Wall street powers preferred to
trust Harrison.
The south and west made most de-
termined resistance to all anti-silver
candidates, and Tammany to Cleveland,
but the money power stepped on them
and crushed them like an eggshell, and
placed Cleveland, the deadliest enemy
to the silver coinage policy so strongly
upheld in the south and west, at the

gustus jacobson, is the title OF an
important book on current problems
in American politics which has Just
been issued in a handsome paper edi-
ton at so cents BY Charles II. Kerr
& Co., It's Dearborn street, Chicago.
Col. Jacobson takes the ground that
the rapid accumulation OF large for
tunesis a menace to the future OF the
Republic, and he therefore advocates
the imposition OF a succession tax on
all large fortunes that are Inherited,
the tax to begin with one-fourth OF
one per cent on all estates less than
$4,000, and to increase progressively
up to fifty per cent on five millions
Or any SUM above five millions.
Along with this tax the author ad-
vocates thorough system Of public
manual training schools, the money
for which would be furnished by the
tax Just described. He proposes to
make compulsory education really
and universally Elective by providing
compensation for the loss OF chill
dren's time to those parents who are
SO poor that the help OF the children
is an essential part of the support OF
the family. The interesting style and
vigorous thinking which characterize
the work have called out praise from
such papers as the Philadelphia
Press, Boston Journal Of Education
and the Congregationalist. We shall

case against General John B. San

where General Sanborn claimed he
was entitled to 10 per cent of the
money paid to the Sisseton and
Wahpeton Indians. The money was
withheld from the Indians until this
point could be settled. The court
held that the claim of General San
born was barred by the statute of
limitations, and further that the
contracts which Sanborn claimed
had been renewed had not been so
renewed. About $45, 900 was in

talk OF a suit being brought to re-
cover about $11, 900, which is said
to have been paid him from Indian

Harrison and Cleveland Are the Persona
hcation of ShylOck's Methods.
The work of the democratic national
convention of 1892 is completed, and
Grover Cleveland is the nominee of the
party. The claim is made, and it has a
surface support, that this is nomina-
ton In defiance of the machine, yield
ing to popular demand for a leader in
whom the people have confidence
Nothing could be further from the
truth. Banker Whitney, of New York
city and Wall street, engineered the
Cleveland boom and nomination from
start to finish. So far from the choice
of Cleveland being the popular will, he
was not even the choice of many dele
gates whose votes under the prevailing
unit rule, were cast for him So well
did his leaders understand the situation
that they dared not allow the conven-
ton to adjourn at midnight, but amid
thunder, lightning, wind and rain they
held their forces together for the ballot.
Had the necessary two-thirds not been
secured on the first ballot, the proba-
bilities are enough southern and west
ern men would have gone to Boies to
have nominated him with, the aid of
Tammany's votes.
Cleveland is nominated, and all he
stands for becomes democratic party
issues for the campaign. Harrison is
nominated, and all that he stands for
becomes republican party issues for the
campaign. Both stand for Wall street,
usurious interest and plutocratic domi-
nance in governmental affairs. Both
are against an increase in the circulat-

head of the democratic ticket. Having
secured the candidates for the heads of
the two nominally opposing parties,
the corporation interest is satisfied
with the election of either feeling
perfectly safe with its its veto power in
the hands of either Cleveland or Har-
rlson, that no measure can become q
law which the plutocratic class is op-
posed to. unless the people make con-
gress solid with two-thirds of major
lty for the public interest, rather than
that of the eapitalistic class.
The people without regard to former
party proclivities owe it to every in
terest their lives are bound up in to
pause and deliberately consider the
present conditions. Blaine was clearly
the choice of the rank and file of re-
publicans by an overwhelming major
1ty, but the strategy of the monopoly
class with their ready money easily
overthrow their efforts and disregarded
their wishes.
Cleveland is the open antagonist of
the financial policy of at least one-half
OF the democratic voters, but they are
powerless as clay in the potter's hands.
The hope of the money power is to di-
vide the voters of the country whose
cause is one, as that of the plutocrats
is one, but while thus arraying them in
two opposing bodies, they have made it
sure that they cannot win in voting
for or electing either of the candidates
nominated. Can the people be made to
comprehend this political strategy by
which they are to be again delivered
into the hands of their natural enemy,
corporate power? If they can they will
