RAILROADS AND SILVER,

How the Drop In tho Latter Has AZ
footed the Former.
Railroads and other institutions which
profit BY the mining, manufacture and
shipping Of silver. are really worse of
financially at present in view of tho agita-
tion for tho repeal Of the so-called Sher-
man bill and the calling for an extra ses-
aion of congress than prior to that time
because mine owners have now lost a great
deal Of interest in working their mines.
''The lead ore Mines" said a prominent
railroad man with considerable mining in
tsrests. have certain contraots which must
b completed and this will necessitate their
operation for some time to come and the
sinelters in working out these lead ores are
forced to use q certain quality of dry orc
n thus keep a large number Of minea
producing this quality Of ore running to
supply this demand. After these contracts
are filled. if silver remains at its presen,
price. many will close because there will
not be sufficient profit in running them.
Many low grade mines have already closed
In Montana and Colorado. which receive
their supply of lead ore FOX the smolter.

about the same a. they did at she first of
The present agitation. Since the PROPOSE
tiOns suggested last week in Chicago are
not satisfactory to all concerned they are of
NO particular interest to the public. whereas
0ur Analdeoisions will be, no doubt. awaited
with deep interest. The Canadian Pacific
has made the situation much more tangled

now stands fatty in tho way OF an early

THEY SOWED THE WIND.
Republicans Did - Democrats Added t
the Breeze and They Are Now Reapins
the Whirlwlnd.

Republicans Did - Democrats Added h
the Breeze and They Are Now Reapins
the Whirlwlnd.
Republican editors are making her
culean efforts to shift the responsibility
of the business failures now of daily
occurrence entirely to democratic
shoulders simply because of their great
increase just at the present time. The
Leavenworth Times, of May 90, in one
of its sage editorial paragraphs, has
this to say:
There is a feeling that the admins
tration of Mr. Cleveland is not a safe
one. That he has theories which he is
determined to test, though the country
may suffer. Add to this the fact that
his party, new to the government now,
and composed largely of men of wild
theories, is to shape the financial
policy of the immediate future, and
there can be no wonder that business
men are trimming their sales for rough
seas. We hope the clouds will roll
by without the threatened storm, but
they certainly look lowering now"
Had Mr. Cleveland made any depart;
ure from the policy steadily pursued by
his predecessor, there might be a pre-.
text for the charge that the increase OF
failures is a consequence of such de-
parture; but we defy the Times to point
out any indication of such change. The
simple fact is the influences that have
been at work for years under repub-
lican administration are now culminat.
ing in a financial crisis that is as UNI
necessary as it is disastrous.
True, Mr.. Cleveland might possibly
have averted the catastrophe if he had
possessed the honesty and the courage
to do so, but he could only have done
it by reversing instead of pursuing the
policy of his republican predecessors.
The responsibility cannot be so easily
shifted. People are not only reading,
but thinking, in these days aid they
will hold both the republican and the
democratic parties responsible for their
full share in their great crime against
humanity. They are both sausage
from the same dog" There is no differ.
ence in the havor.-Topeka (Kan) Ad.

A RELIC OF BARBARISM.
The Idea That Money Must Necessarily
Possess Intrinsic Value.

Inc Iutd indl fuOntg MUST Ncfessdrlly
Possess Intrinsic Value.
Why do people insist on believing
the old barbarous idea that only metal
can be made real money? Did you ever
have paper dollar that your creditor
would not gladly accept at face value?
We can easily see why the plutocrats
want to perpetuate that idea, for by it
they intend to enslave the world; but
why common, everyday people should
cling to it, we cannot see. The miner
labors all day and at night receives
a coin dollar. He has received the pay
for his work, and further than
that his labor is lost. He has
dug a dollar out of the
ground, but he has paid for
it with his labor and the country is no
wealthier. If he had labored day on
public Improvements and the govern
ment had made paper dollar to pay
him, he would be as well off, and the
people would be a days work richer.
The government also makes a slight
distinction in favor of paper money.
When worn out specie dollar is re.
turned TO the United States mint it is
received at its weight and the last man
handling loses the loss by wear. When
a worn out paper dollar is returned tc
the treasury new one is issued in its
place without loss to the last holder.
Still the people cling to their metal
