The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1893-08-10

It is we'll to exercise q little consider
alton before attributing all the ills of
the present financial crisis to the
monthly purchase, of silver under the
so-called Sherman act. A South Caro-.
lima man gives his view of it in the
American Economist as follows:
1t is q strained assumption that the
issue of fl20, ,0OO, 600 of legal tenders,
under the Sherman act, could unsettle
the finances of this the richest country
on the face Of the globe. =.
It is not the Sherman act that has
disturbed condolences; it is the threat
ened demolition Of the industries of
the country under the coming Free"
Trade legislation. =: r. - =
Under the Sherman act $40, ,000, 600
of currency is measurably affected,
while under the Reform Club Tariff
schedule billions Of property will be
most seriously menaced.
Under our Protective Tariff British
money was steadily flowing to the
United States, as evidenced by the
500, 900, 600 balance In our favor in
1892, and this while the Sherman act
Was in full operation.

Territory, and of Australian aud
fleece, but the mills that use them have
substituted foreign for native. They
have not added the use of native to the
foreign woods. The foreign mills
which produce competing goods do
not use American woods at all. If
they needed them they would buy them
to secure finish, as they buy certain
grades of Australian lambs wool at
fabulous prices.
The Ohio grower is tolerably happy
when his Xxx sells on secured basis
of 81 cents. The Montana m,n is
equally so when his 6ne staple brings
62 cents clean.
Foreign wool competing with these
two grades sells in London at SO cents
and 40 cents respectively. Is there
any man insane enough to believe that
the increased consumption of wool,
which can be grown at profit at frcm
10 to 20 cents a secured pound less
than American wool, is likely to in
crease the demand for American as an
adulterant at higher price than the
foreign fleece?
Free wool means the destruction of
wool growing in the United States.
We shall continue to breed and grow
mutton sheep, as in England, and the
growers will sell tho by product, Class
2, not Glass l, wool, for::what they can
get for it.
The exceptional increase in the f.r-
eign clips OF 1892, the consequent drop
in prices, encouraged the increased
use Of foreign wool. In 1891 we i'm
ported 100000 pounds of clothing
wool. In1s92 we imported $1,000, GOO
pounds. This increased importation
of foreign wool certainly did not in
crease the average price of American.
In June, 1891, Michigan x sold at 20
cents; in June, 1892, at 26 cents. The
last sale in this market was % cents.
The drop in value of secured territory
wool in one year has been not less
than IL cents a pound.
The actual increase in imports Of
foreign wool, for this mysterious mix
ing, is only a little less effective in
breaking the market for the American
fleece than the prospective free wool
condition that is supposed to be ahead
| of US.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
The Presidents message Is exclusive
u confined 10 the ono question of the
repeal Of what to called the Sherman
act Of 1880, which compelled the pur-
chase of $4,5OO,OeO Of silver bullion
every month. The act referred to was
designed to maintain the price of silver.
but in fact it has had the contrary
effect, as silver has reached the lowest
point ever known in the history OF the
country. This bullion has been paid
for IN treasury notes payable on de-
mand in either gold or silver, at the
discretion Of the Secretary of the
Treasury. - At the same time the law
declares it to be the established policy
Of the government to maintain the two
metals ON = parity with each other
upon such ratio as the law may deter
4min6. This declaration controls the
the Secretary. to prevent his exercise of
the discretion of choosing either NOM
inal'y conferred upon him. II he re-
fused to pay these notes when
demanded in gold, the treasury notes
would be discredited, and a discrimin-
alton would be made in favor or gold.
Up to July 18th. 1893, treasury notes in
payment for bullion had been issued
for more than SLY 100000. This bull
lion is mostly uncoined and is of no
service to the treasury, or to the
country as currency. Between May 1st,
1892 and July 18th, 1898, $4,000, 600
notes have been issued to pay for silver
bullion, and 49,OOO,O 900 have been re-
deemed In gold. This policy of paying
for silver in gold has led TO the inva-
sion OF the gold reserve set apart for
other purposes. Other nations have
set about draining us of the gold. The
President ascribcs tho panic not, to
inadequate resources but to the fact
that confidence in the stability of the
currency is gone. If we could know
what specific amount of silver we
should be called thus to preserve on a
parity with gold, it would not be so
bad, but the utter indefiniteness as to
that creates apprehension, and that is
the cause of the present crisis. The
President fails to give the "apprehen-
sions" of the effect of so called tariff
reform on the manufactu uriDg and COM
mercial interests Of the country. In
our mind this is a larger fact to be
taken into account than the silver
question. But On this the President
makes no mention, much less argu.
ment.

RAISE YOUR OWN FISH.

Many of the farmers of Minnesota
can, il they so determine, raise fish for
their own consumption or for market
as readily as they do they raise beef or
mutton, if set about it intelligent)y.
On any farm containing nice little
pond or lake fish can be bred and pre-
served, and a profitable business can
be made of it. A very little attention
on the part of farmer who has such
lake on his premises will make an
acre of the water more profitable than
any acre Of the land he has. II a stream
of water rurs through your farm AN
artificial pond can be made without too
great an expense. The water can be
titled to advantage as we'll as the land.
A writer in the Northwestern Agri-
culturist, Mr.. W. w. Leonard, says
that brook trout and black bass, may
be protitably raised. He advises that
pickerel be not placed in the fish ponds
as they are voracious that they de-
populate small lakes Of other kinds of
fish, except perhaps full grown bass,
which are gamey enough to fight their
own way. Mr.. Leonard's g suggestion
is as follows:
"The greatest authority on black
bass, DR.. J. A. Henshall, says Of him,
''inch for inch, pound for pound, he is
ths gamiest fish that swims. Now it
is very fortunate that this splendid,
gamey, food fish should be so easily
propagated in nearly all waters. The
simplest and most successful way to do
it is: given small pond, say 400 or 500
feet in diameter, that is at
least twelve or fifteen feed deep
feet in some places, with reasonably
clear water, and It will be very little
trouble and no expense. It can be
made to teen with black bass and do it
in this way. Somewhere near you is a
lake in which you can catch bass. At
any time in the season, after June,
catch as many as you can with hook
and line, or with a seine, keeping them
alive in . fish cart or net, or even on q
string, but do not run. the string
through their gills; with knife cut q
small hole near the point Of the lower
jaw and pass the string through that

FREE WOOL FOLLY.

The fsrmers-especially those who
raise sheep-are in q fair way to be ed
ucated 10 a most practical way, as to
the fallacy of such arguments Of Brit
ish free traders, such as this: The ex-
olusion of foreign wool may reduce the
demand for the domestic wool that
would have been mixed with it. On
this the Boston Commercial Bulletin,
throws light as follows: re
The demand from American woolen
mills last year was sufficient to con-
sumo the entire American clip and 1885,
OO0, 600 pounds Of foreign wool into the
bargain. The importing Of Australian
and Cspe woods does not encourage the
.uss Of American wool; it supplants it.
There are blends Of Australian and

MCKINLEY ON THE CRISIS.


Gov. McKinles, of Ohio, nobly main
tains his reputation as 4 souAd, level
headed statesman. We admire, espec-
tally his EVIDENT purpose to treat the )
administration Uf frestdrnt Cleveland
fairly, though maintaining his own
views as to its error on the tariff ques-
tion. In q speech delivered near San
dusky, Ohio, on the 5th, at Il farmers
gathering, he pointed the fact that the
business of the country rested upon
credit, faith in one another, faith in
the industries of the country, faith in
the destines Of the republic, and when
every man has lost faith then paralysis
followed. What We wanted now was
level headedness. But unfortunate as
our situation was today, it would have
been worse if instead of having na-
tional bank money we had state bank
money. Continuing he said:
1T is not important that we find
somebody to blame for our present 6n-
ancial distrust, but it is of paramount
importance that We 6nd some way out.
Uncertainty and distrust lie at the
foundation OF the serious financial and
industrial condition that confronts US.
There Is nothing so sensitive in this
world as capital and trade and COM
merce, and business men everywhere
are sure to discount their fears of the
future. Whatever influerce the Sher-
man law, so-called, may have upon the
resent condition, it is by no means the
chief cause of our trouble. The great
cause is elsewhere found and those who
cannot discover it are blinded by part
isanship. Manufacturers are not 60
ing to produce for the future when
their products made under present
conditions may have to compete with
like products made under very differ
ent conditions. Manufacturers ire
not going to produce iron or ste.l !,
cotton or wooden goods under the pre-
sent rates of duty on the raw materials
and the finished product, which in six
or twelve months may have to meet in
the same market iron and steel and
cotton and woolen goods made with
raw material free, and the finished pro-
duct with diminished duty. Manu-
facturers are not going to produce for
the future and pay protective tariff
wages when their products may have
to compete with like products under
free trade wages. Let me tell what
would be the oure-an authorized de-
claration of congress when it meets
next Monday, approved by the Presi-
dent, that the threatened changes will
not take place, that they did not mean
it or if they meant it, they have discov-
cred they were wrong. 1fthey will do
that the fears of the business world
will be quieted, and business will Ie-
sumo its normal condition" -

and it will do them no injury, provided
you do not injure them in taking them
off the hook or the hook has not been
caught in their gills. When
you arrive at the lake, simply dump
your fish into it, and that is all there is
to it. They are u tough, hardy fish,
amply able to fight their own battles;
will forage for food and get it, too and
thrive in any decent water. They will
spawn the following spring, in May or
June, and as pair Of large bass will
deposit about 10000 eggs, you can rea-
dily see that in two or three years you
will have plenty of bass to catch and
eat. If the pond or lake in which you
put them seems to be deficient in food,
a few pals full of minnows caught with
an improvised seine made of mosquito
netting, will furnish plenty of food for
the bass, pike or other fish which you
introduce.
Your lake can also be stocked in the
same manner with wall-eyed pike,
perch and sun fish. Do not despise the
simple little sun fish. He grows rapid
ly, multiplies very fast, and IS an ex-
ceedingly sweet little pan fish to eat.
If you happen to have small pond on
your farm that yoa think is too dirty
and muddy for bass, you can stock it
with carp. We do not consider them
very much of fish to eat. and certain
ly they are not gamey to catch, but
they are a great deal better than no
fish at all, and they will live and thrive
in dirty. muddy pond, that you would
think it impossible for any fish to live

Ex-Speaker Thomas b. Reed says Of
President Cleveland's g message: "
"While this message is impressive It
is far from being adequate to the oc-
casion. While my votes in the past
show clearly that agreed with much
that he says, I should not be doing juSt
tice to my own sense Of truth did / not
record my entire disbelief in the idea
that the message states as the underly-
ing cause of our disaster. Tho cause Of
our misfortunes is plainly this: Utter
uncertainty reigns in finance, in tariff,
and in everything on which business
can be based. II you remove one ele-
ment of uncertainty there remain all
the others. You can not readjust the
economic principles which govern the
country without disaster. especially If
that readjustment be violated and in
volve the wages and salary Of every
Citizen" -. =. II" -.

An Opossum's Suicide.

One of the opossums at the Central
menagerie, New York, was found
dead in his cage the other morning.
his tail made a circle around his
neck and was caught between the
wire meshes of the cage. To Keeper
McGuiness, who found the animal
banging ike little fur ball, il was
a clear case of suicide. The opos-
sums were in o cage near that of the
wildcats, and one of these animals
was found lying dead upon the floor
of its den. The cat had died during
the night n an unaccountable man
ner. 1t was thought that it had
choked to death while attempting to
swallow q bone, Director Smith is
quite certain that the opossum COM
mitted suicide, for it's tail had first
been cooled about its neck and then
thrust between the wire meshes
and caught by the weight of the body.
The bodies will be stuffed and placed
on exhibition IN the museum of ma
