Viewed as political expression of

platform adopted st Jackson is disap-
pointing. There is not distinct. re-
deeming principle Enumerated. Every
plank is threadworn platitude bora
of socialism. For instance, II demands
that the people shall have the right to
propose laws and to vote upon all legs-
lanve matters of Importance. This, log
ically. would do away with legislatures
entirely, for every legislative Act is an
important one. IL also demands that
the state shall answer for the defaults
of its citizens who neglect or refuse to
pay taxes on lands and that the lands
shall become vested IN the state aDso-
lutte, to be held for sctual settlers. In
other words the state shall buy tax
titles with money collected from the
people for default means that o. h RS
must make il good) aud hold the land
30 acquired for actual settlers. TaIs
is socialism. pure and simple. AMI if
generally adopted would become more
unbearable than the system of con-
fiscation by the Car, now in vogue in
Russia. Its first paragraph IS but an
echo of the law of the land
and lends neither responsibility nor
dignity to the socialism that pervades
the entire document II mveighs
against con vict labor on the principle
that convict Labor completes with free
labor and in the next breath demands
that convicts shall be taken outside Of
PRISON walls to compete with the
freest labor in Observation-Disclosures
Whether free labor would suffer more
from convict stone-cutting inside the
walls or convict stone-breaking outside
the walls IS q question that must be
settled by experiment. As matter of
business economy, il might be we'll to
put convicts to work on the highways.
but To raise the uutried expert

curing that manufacturers shall label
all their products with their names is
about as just and equitable a. it would
be TO require every farmer to write his

Those who advocate Mr.. Cleveland's
election tell us that it is an imposition
upon the people of this land to place
duty upon TN plate, and that there is
not tin enough IN the country to sup
ply the wants of consumers. But those
who have studied the question enough
to know what they are talking about
tell us that it Is not an unborn in
dus:ry. The Mckinley bill placed .
duty of 2 2-10 cents on tin plate for
the purpose of encouraging the de-
velopment Of TIN mines and the manu-.
facture of tin plate in this country.
What does this mean? 1t means that
millions of tons more of coke and coal
will be used, that l2,O0O. 900 feet Of
lumber wilt be needed annually for
packing purposes, that $23, 0O0.0 900
more will be expended yearly in wages;
that $4,000 men will receive employ.
ment and that thus 250, 900 people will
be provided for; and yet tho demo-
Gratis say the industry Is unborn. in
spite of the fact that there is enough
tin in one mine in Wyoming alone to
supply all the tin that can be used in
the United States for 100 years.

r "The outward gold movement" says
Henry Clews, "has been the most seri-
ious check to enthusiasm on the bull
side. This feature, together with the
growing use of silver is of course .
source of uneasiness. Nevertheless,
this question has been uppermost for .
long period and its follies and dangers
are taking no one by surprise. We
are less alarmed than Europeans, who
at such q distance naturally take the
most cautious, if not the worst view.
As for the foreign demand for gold,
that has been stimulated by the SCARE
ity of commercial bills, the backward
ness of cotton exports accounting in
considerable degree for this. Perhaps
the most encouraging feature Of the
situation il the assurance of continued
ease in money. The west and north
