She Raises No Cotton, but Is Heavily Mort
gagged Just the Same.
Indiana is not as much in debt as
some of her neighboring states, but the
official mortgage record shows that it
is time for her people to call halt.
The geographical situation of the state,
soil, climate, her network of railroads,
great cities in the state and near by,
ought to make increasing prosperity
instead of rapidly increasing indebted
ness. The per capita Indebtedness is
S51, which is better showing than
made by Illinois with 800; Iowa, S1O4;
Kansas, s1To per capita debts.
In 1880 Indiana had mortgages to
the amount of SCI, $50, 1SS. In 1889,
$37, ,494, 412 worth of mortgages were
recorded. The increase for the ten
years was 1894 per cent, while the
population only increased 1892 per
cent. During the ten years 35S, ,927
mortgages We're made, aggregating
s2S4, 104, ,O44. OF this amount Ga % per
cent. was on farms, and 1857 per cent.
on town property. The average rate of
interest is about 80 per cent
On the first of January, 1890, the to-
tai real estate mortgage indebtedness
of the state was, $110, 73O, ,643. Hence
the people of Indiana are little over
twenty three times as much in debt, ac-
cording to the real estate Indebtedness,
as the people of South Carolina. The
population of Indiana is larger than that
of South Carolina, but that still leaves
Indiana many times as much in debt
Not pound of cotton is raised in In
diana, hence here is another convincing
argument against the theory that
cotton-raising is the trouble in the
south. Now hasn't the Progressive
Farmer been telling the truth all the
time?-Raleigh IN. c. Progressive

Last week after the antitrust con-
vention at Chicago, Ignatius Donnelly
telegraphed to his paper, the Repre-
sentative, the following significant re-
mark: ut now looks as if the anti
trust question would be the battle
ground in 1894 and 1926, and parties
formed on new lines. -Nonconformist.

LEI IL COME.
All Hail the Day When the Collapse to the
silver Basis Shall Come.

silver Basis Shall Come.
For a great many years there was a
struggle going on between paper money
and coin. Coin included both gold and
silver. We were told that we must do
away with paper money and get down
to a ''specie basis or the country would
go TO the ''demnit;on bow-wows.n
Any man of any sense knows that all
the talk about the necessity of a specie
basis was an excuse for putting on the
thumb-screws of contraction. The pol
icy of contraction has been nercilessly
carried on sor whole qusrter Of 9

century II IS still be;no c,rr,so %,

century. 1t is still being carried on.
Instead of a contest between paper
money and coin, it is now a contest be-
tween gold and silver.
We were told for many years that all
we needed to make glorious financial
system absolutely perfect was coin
money. And now the same gang OF
John Sherman and Grover Cleveland
cut-throats are telling us that we must
have gold alone!
The Sherman law must be repealed.
AS matter of fact any law known as a
"Sherman law" ought to be repealed
simply because it bears the blight of
Benedict Arnold in its very name. But
the chances are that If John Sherman
made mistake in the Sherman law"
it was merely letting go to get better
hold. John Sherman has never made
any mistake" in engineering schemes
for Shylocks And unless this law is
repealed" says the above dispatch,
sit will not be long till the country
will be brought to n silver basis
We have heard this same assertion
ten thousand times. 1t has been re-
peated till it rings in our ears like the
Changing tones of an alarm bell. But
not one of the ten thousand prophets
who predicted the drop to silver
basis has ever yet pointed out how or
wherein a collapse to the silver basis
was going to injuse anybody! With
owlish wisdom, with elongated faces.
with hands piously upheld, they dole
fully howl: There is danger of a col
lapse to silver basis!''
In the name of common sense, what
calamity could possibly befall our ma
ton if every dollar of gold should
leave the country and the ''silver- basis
collapse" should come?
For fifteen years the people of this
country never saw gold dollar! We
carried on the most gigantic war OF
modern times without dollar of gold.
We rebuilt desolate South; opened up
immense territories of undeveloped
land; constructed tens of thousand OF
miles of railroads; liquidated all of the
war debt the Shylocks would let loose
from their wolfish clutches, kept every
man who wanted work busy from
morning till night,-every work-day
in the year; built more houses for the
people than were ever built before in
the same length of time; de-
veloped the greatest prosper
ity which this nation ever saw
and everywhere the benign sunshine
of plenty shed it's rays upon contented
and happy people! and all during the
period when there was not an accursed
gold dollar to be found!
All hail the day when the ''gold dol
lar" shall forever and eternally disap
pear! all hail the day when the ''col-
lapse to the silver basis shall come.
Let ''Secrerary Carlisle's danger sig
nal of the disappearance of gold be
eternally damned. The sooner the
scare-crow dead line is passed the bet
ter it will be for the American people.

AN ACTUAL CONTRACTION

About Twenty-FOur Million Dollars Less
Money In Circulation Than One Year
Ago.
From the official figures issued by the
treasury department it appears that
there has been an actual contra ction in
the volume of circulating medium dur
ing the year ended May 81, 1898,
amounting to 50 cents per capita. AS
useful and important data to file away,
we give the official figures as follows:

1t is thus apparent that we have ten
varieties of coin and paper circulating
as money, no two of which are subject
to the same requirements as to re-
demption nor clothed with the same
legal tender and debt paying qualities.

Robt. Ralston, of Spokane, and Chas.
Thompson, of keystone, were brought
before Judge Lewis Thursday after
noon, charged with grand larceny.
Chas Ferguson, brother of the notori-
Gus "Jim," was the complaining witness.
He testified that the defendants had
unlawfully taken from his possession
certain personal property valued at S75.
In the course Of the trial it was shown
that the property in question originally
belonged to James Ferguson, and that
he had disposed of 1t several times, and
t. as many different persons. He had
turned it over to Thompson, as renum-
Grafton for services rendered, had sold
it to II. +. Hickman for valuable consid-
Grafton, and had also given his brother
title to it by bill of sale. The claim of
the defendants antedated that of Chas
Ferguson, and they were discharged.
The county rays the costs.
