GOVERNMENT MONEY LENDING.

The editorial correspondence of the
Kansas City Journal from Washing
ton contains the following on the
money question, which we should
think was heresy on that question
for Kansas City:
"The practical fact is that we have
free coinage of our own silver product
and to that extent we have that
product monthly added to our circu-
lating money. All the Democratic
gable on the question has never
given us an additional dollar, and had
not the 5lsJ congress been Republi-
can we should have been at an exclu-
sive gold standard today. That l am
not optimistic as to the future of our
currency, it is only needed TO refer to
the fact that the richest man in the
senate, a man scores of times mill
ionaire, has introduced and advocat-
ed a bill making legal tender pa
per the money, and loaning it direct
to the people at a minimum interest
charge. When grcenbacks were
first proposed, thirty years ago, they
were derided as money just as flip
PANTY as this proposal now But
the one is the logical outgrOwth Of
the other If, as the supreme court
afiirms, the nation has the right and
power at any time to issue money-Or
make money-it has the correlative
right TO loan as well as to borrow.
Gen. Jackson settled that question
when he deposited the national
money in state banks-"pet" banks
rs they were then called-and Grover
Cleveland reaf1irmed the power when
his secretary of the treasury loaned
the surplus to the banks. Has JO-
scph ii Chick any more right or le-
gal privilege to borrow money or get
money on deposit as banker than
he has to get the same on the secur-
ity of his farm? | confess / can not
see that being a Insurer in one case
gives him any more right than he
has as a producer in the other. Can
anybody tell me where the difference
in rights comes in?"

TEE POETRY OF THE FARM.

1t is no advantage to live in city
where poverty degrades and failure
brings despair. The fields are love-
lier than paved street, and the great
forests of oaks and elms are more
poetic than steeples and chimneys.
In the country is the idea of home.
There you see the rising and setting
sun; you become acquainted with the
stars and clouds. The constella-
tons are your friends. You hear the
rain on the roof and listen to the
rhythmic signing of the winds. You
are thrilled by the resurrection called
spring, touched and saddened by au-
tumn-the grace aud poetry of death.
Every field is picture, a landscape;
every landscape a poem; every flower
a tender thought, and every forest a
fairy land. In the country you pre-
serve your identltY-your personall-
ty. There you are an aggregation
of atoms, but in the city you are
only an atom of an aggregation

9tIsE Largest Industries

A few evenings since our report
er's attention was called to the beau
tifully illuminated buildings of the
Smith Premier Typewriter works on
Clinton street, and upon lnvestlga-
ton found that owing to large in
crease in business they were obliged
to run twelve hours a day, operating
between 300 and 400 employees. Con-
sidering the rapid growth of the
business referred to it is very appa-
rent to the proprietor that it will be
absolutely necessary during the sum
mer months to build another factory,
and in fact the plans are nearly ar
ranged for the construction of a new
building Of dimensions G0xl40 feet,
seven stories high. This new struc-
ture, in addition to the present build
ings, which have every nook and cor
ner filled with operatives, will admit
of working at least 600 people, and
if the business continues to increase
in the future as it has in the past 1T is
very certain that the company at no
distant day will require all the type
writers that 600 operatives can pro-
duce. We are informed that no other
typewriter manufacturers in the state
at present are pressed to fill their or
ders to the extent that they are
obliged to work NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

new means to reach the north pole

Athens, Greece. He has constructed a
locomotive the wheels OF which have
sharp edges on the outside rim, which
easily cut into ice and are shaped in a
manner to hold fast in IL. Thus they
move forward. The locomotive is moved
by steam, which serves at the same time
to warm the entire space in which the
travellers live. The inventor says his en-
gine will run thirty-one miles an hour;
that means that the pole can be reached
from 5pitzbergen in twenty hours. Sup
posing all was true that the inventor says
his engine could do, how does he know
there is continuous field OF ice between
the two pointsf And II he should fail to

I large and thoroughly representative
audience assembled In Armory Hall last
evening, including the greater part OF the
members Of the town committees OF all
parties. L. NJ. Stanley presided, while
A. b. Pierce, president Of the Prohibition
Club, watched over the interests of that
side of the debate. A quartette sang,
prayer was offered and then the real work
OF tue evening began.
A. S. Roe, Republican representative
from Worcester aud j. A. Williams Of
PROVIDENCE, the latter speaking first,
took up three-quarters of an hour each,
and then fifteen minutes each. They both
spoke eloquently and forcibly, and were
both impartially applauded, though there
were special points which received the
plaudit Of one side or the other.
Mr.. Williams argument was an attempt
to show that more States had passed pro-
hibition laws under Democratic rule than
under Republican, and that prohibition
was merely football for Republicanism.
Mr.. Roe showed that prohibition was
vote, by gain of prohibitionists as legis-
lators, by al awakened public sentiment.
Mr.. Roe is an earnest Prohibitionist,
and said he proposed TO get results than
to fight as the Third Party folks were
doing. Everybody was pleased, but no
lody was converted to either side. After
the meeting the Republicans met In Com
pany C's rooms, where they were ad-
dressed by Representatives Wellman Of
Maiden and Parkhurst of Clinton.
