THE ELEVATOR RINGS REFORM.

| There are some very singular phases in
| the unanimous declaration Of the elevator
men of the Northwest that they will no
| longer furnish statements of the weights,
shipments and stock in store in their
warehouses. This reversal of the long
standing practice of aiding the trade by
| giving trade statistics the widest publica-
ton is supported on high patriotic
grounds. The publication of statistics,
they say, ''is an absolute detriment to the
agricultural interests of this country" be-
cause it tells the grain buyers of Europe
that we have enough grain for all their
wants and that they can hold off from
purchasing their supplies accordingly. All
this, of course, in the interest of the Amer
| ican farmer.
The most salient feature of this argu-
ment is its comic side. The self-consti-
tuted protectors of the farmers serve
notice on the world at large that we have
| constantly on hand such an excess of
grain that it would hurt the market to
let them know what it is. Therefore they
will never tell them. This is OF
the same quality as the innocent
got something to give you, but won't
tell you what it is" If it is not the sig-
nifcance of the excuse that the stocks of
grain in this country are perpetually ex-
cessive, it might occur to the elevator
pundits that it would be to the interest of
the farmer to have the world know when
stocks are light. Perhaps they will digest
that fact sufficiently to publish statistics
when stocks are light and to suppress
them when they are heavy. That would
have, with slight change, the same delight
full quality of keeping the latter condition
a profound secret.
But we fear that this charming inno-
cence is only a pretext. The fact is that
other interests are involved The buyer
from whom the farmer must get either
good prices or the reverse can conduct
operations more successfully if he has the
statistics which the elevator men propose
to keep to themselves. The farmer him
self, when intelligent enough, can profit
by the information. Perhaps the most sig
nificant feature of the move is the fact
that the exclusive intelligence which
the elevator men obtain in this way will
permit them to manipulate the market.
They alone are to know when they can
squeeze the market by corners or when
they can sell short with profit. There is
much more usufruct in this phase of the
matter than in the pre&ext of concealing
from European shippers an alleged excess
which the market quotations would be
sure to reveal.
The idea that any trade; can be made
prosperous by making its statistics the
exclusive property of a favored few is a
medieval lone worthy of the prevailing

HANGING OR BURNING9

The Democratic campaigners are pursu-
ing Peck with an acrimony that has gone
to the extent of arresting him. This in
timation that the statistician who pub
fishes statistics not favorable to the Demo-
cratic cause is a criminal leads to the
inquiry whether such a traitor is to be
simply and mercifully hanged, or whether
his crime requires a punishment with
melted lead or boiling oil, or something
equally humorous in It.
While this pursuit of Peck with the
terrors of the law is going on that un-
fortunate party is in its turn pursued by
other candidates for the torture. The
Democratic statistician of Indiana and the
Democratic banking superintendent of
New York have each given official in
formation corroborating Peck, and now
comes the Massachusetts Bureau of Labor
with this showing:
From 1890 to 1891 there was q gain of q IS
per cent in the total amount Of wages in rs
industries. The range from the highest to
the lowest was from 1915 60 to $27s 93 in $780,
and from s6s7 76 to s2s7 % in 1891. In carpet
ings the increase was 366 per cent; in cotton
goods, 467 in machinery, 3.5S; in metals and
metallic goods, 3.2s; i'll paper and paper
goods, 40; in wooden goods, 715 and in
worsted goods. l.5s. The chief decreases
we're in boots and shoes, 375 per cent, and
leather, $50 per cent. These two were In
dustries having free raw material and re-
ceiving practically no assistance from the
Mckinley act.
We believe that eminent tariff reformer,
Gen. F. A. Walker, to be responsible for
this report Whether the statistics come
from New York Democrat like Peck or
a Mugwump like Walker they are equally
disastrous to the calamity campaigners
Yet there is worse and more of it.
George Ticknor Curtis, the Democratic
standby OF constitutional authority, the
intimate and adviser of Tilden, the
biographer of Buchanan, and the ex-
ponent of rock-ribbed and strict construc-
ton Democracy, comes out in letter re-
pudiating the Democratic platform on the
tariff. He declares its utterance on the
constitutional question to be reputation
of the principles of the founders of
Democracy; and he is going to commit the
further awful crime of writing more ex-
tended letter on the constitutiouality and
benefit of the protective system. If Peck
must be arrested for his offense, hanging
without benefit of clergy, is too good for
George Ticknor Curtis.
1t will puzzle even Democratic rancor to
find penalties which fit the crime of these
various and increasing offenders. We
venture to suggest that the best that can
be done is go back to medieval times and
have grand auto de .te of the whole in
order to put an early stop to the heresy of
publishing statistics and expressing con-
stitutional opinions that do not fit in with
the Democratic campaign.

THE VETERANS REUNION.

The reunion of the Grand Army this
week has some points of especial interest
in addition to that which surrounds all the
gatherings Of the veterans. The assem-
bling Of the men who saved the nation
thirty years ago at the capital after it has
enjoyed nearly that period of peaceful
growth and Improvement is a subject not
only Of interesting reminiscence but of
patriotic thought
Washington owes all it has to the fact
that it is the political center of a nation
that was kept intact by the services of the
veterans. The seat of the national Gov
ernment is brought once more into social
contact with the men whose marches
through and around it formed its prin-
cipal history from 1861 to 1865, and the
review Of the diminishing organization of
veterans will bring TO memory the mag
nifcent force of troops led by Grant,
Sherman and Sheridan in review through
the capital at the close of the war.
Washington may Well give a warm wei
come to the grizz!ed veterans whose
patriotic valcr turned its peril into its
greatness, The hOnors given by the
capital represent the nations esteem and
gratitude. A pleasant reunion, and as
many of them as the span of human life
will permit is the universal wish of all to
the survivors of the Civil War

bining the merits of elasticity and sta
bility equal to that of requiring notes to
be based on deposit of securities which
can be increased or diminished according
to the demands of trade. Beyond that
the Times asserts that the national bank
circulation on the present basis is prac-
tically thing of the past. 1t may be "on
its present basis" but that is no reason
why new securities surrounded by the
safeguards of the national system cannot
be substituted if a real effort is made to
do so.
"No one," says the Times, "can seri-
ously pretend that the various forms of
paper currency now in use constitute a
safe, satisfactory or sensible system"
This is stupendous. There is not paper
dollar in circulation that does not circu-
late at par throughout the length and
breadth Of the land. There is not one that
has not the credit of the United States be-
hind it. The total bulk of $500, 900, 900
issues other than national bank notes rests
on a reserve of more than 80 per cent,
greater security than any bank can afford.
To assert that notes issued under the au-
thority of forty-four different State Legis-
latures should take the place of these
forms of circulation is either the sublim-
ity of effrontery or the stupendousneSs of
ignorance.
The Times heads its article "Bourbons
and Banks" This is eminently appropri-
ate. Only the most stupid Bourbonism
could propose to turn back system DEM
onstrated by thirty years experience to
be the best in the world, in order to re-
sumo one shown in the previous thirty
years to be the worst in the world

A Correspondent Sees Snake in the Clause
Exempting American Citizens.
To the Editor of The Dispatch;
In telegram published Sunday morning
discussing the feasibility of wholly stopping
immigration from cholera infected ports of
Europe, exemption as to American citizens
is spoken of as advisable.
rise to ask how long after q regulation
exempting American citizens (steerage pas
sengers) was adopted, would it be before
the Chinese methods of impersonation
would be in full operation, and each new
immigrant would be travelling under an as
sumed name, with full documentary evil
dence that he (the bearer) was an American?
Then how long would it be before pho
Biography and other aids could be brought to
bear to help the authorities in detecting the
fraud thus practiced? How much extra
would the European mail-carrying vessels
be earning by reason of the extra burden of
carrying to Europe the naturalization
papers of "citizens' anxious to help in
digent friends and relations to this our
Ell Dorado?
Make the prohibition universal. Let no
person travelling steerage in! American
citizens unable to pay at least second cabin
seldom or never visit Europe. If the plague
continues there, and "citizens" are exempt
by the terms of the contemplated prohibit
tory law from its operation, the tide of i'm
migration will scarcely be diminished, much
less suppressed, and the plague will be with
US to stay or to run its course.

A SUCCESSFUL FIGHT.

There Is much ground for hope in the
outlook concerning the fight against
cholera. Unless the official reports from
New York are deliberate and gigantic
hes-which the frank acknowledgment
OF last "Wednesday forbids us to believe
there is good evidence of the possibility
by vigorous measures of checking and
controlling the disease even after it has
reached the land
No secondary cases have been reported,
and although it is ten days since the first
death from cholera on shore, five days
have elapsed without the appearance of a
new case At Quarantine it seems to
be well demonstrated that science is
triumphing over the epidemic. Among
the thousands from the infected ships who
have been long at Quarantine the disease
is dying out, and the only new cases were
from the recently arrived loads of infec-
ton which the steamship companies per-
sst in sending to our shores We have in
these facts good reason for the trust that
while there may be scattering cases, the
work of prompt isolation and disinfection
wherever it appears will prevent it from
reaching serious proportions.
There IS even more ground for encour-
agement in the proof last week of the
value of the sanitary work that has been
done in PittSburg. While the cholera was
still on the other side of the Caucasus
The DISPATCH urged that the work of
cleaning up should be set about, both be-
cause preparation could not be too early
or too thorough, and because, if the
cholera should not cross the ocean, the
gain in the lessening of other filth diseases
would more than repay the work. 1t was
necessary for the cholera to come nearer
than it then was to stimulate the work.
But it was commenced soon enough to do
great good. Too much stress cannot be
placed on the proof of the value of
sanitary work in the decrease of the death
rate of PittSburg to one-half its average
since the city authorities have set about
thGEnrk of sanitation with will.
This good work should be kept up with
out intermission. There are still many
spots where vigorous measures are needed
to insure complete sanitation. We are
not yet past the period of possible peril,
although we may be passing the term of
probable danger But above all, entirely
independent of the cholera, the work of
thorough and vigorous sanitation is worth
many times its cost in the protection from
other dangerous though more familiar
diseases
