Some people cannot stand prosperity.
One year ago everything WAS
prosperous, all industries were thriving,
money was easy. people were prolitahly
employed and oaght to have been coll
tented and happy. But many were not.
They thought things were wrong and
that Il change in the administration MAS
necessary, and thousands upon thou
sands of laboring men voted the Demo-
cratic ticket because of this feeling of
unrest and desire for a change. In con-
sequence of this voting we are to-day
sailing under the Democratic political
flag and these people who wanted His

Some OF our Democratic exchanges
indulge in the theory that Republicans
in congress at the extra session will
not assist in the repeal of the silver pur-
chase act. the so called sherman bill. But
this is altogether unwarranted. No
Republican has made such talk to our
know ledge. On the other hand many
Republican leaders have announced in
print their purpose to vote for the re-
peal, and when congress meets the 18th
of next month "A majority of Republicans
of both branches will so vote if the Dem
ocratic House and Senate give them Il
chance. The trouble is that the Dem
ocrats themselves are likely to be at
loggerheads on this question, and if it
is defeated the ruling party will have
to bear the odium of the defeat. Prcsi-
dent Cleveland is doing his best to whip
his party into line and we hope he will
be able to do so. He can do it if any
one can and will not scruple to use pub
lie offices, which "are II public trust. e

throughout the country, appealing to
them to protest against the proposed

dress leaves no doubt as to the master
workman's opinion in this matter. He
says:
The sixteenth plank in the preamble
of the Knights of Labor reads as follows:
That interest bearing bonds, bills Of cred

government; but that when need arises,
the emergency shall be met by issues of

for asking new agitation on this subject
at this time is obvious. The secretary of

gress TO grant him authority to issue $20O,.
GO 900 in interest bearing bonds.
