From a number of business men and
statesmen come remarks as to the financial
situation which should cheer the hearts OF
many now responding mortals. Slowly but
certainly the strain upon the money market
Is letting up and with favorable action by
Congress on the silver purchase act Of 1885
the coming Of good times and easy money
Is not likely long to be delayed. In the
great manufacturing centers there Is much
more activity today than there was a week
ago and 1t Is quite possible that the major
ity Of those concerns that were compelled
to shut down because money was being
boarded will again be producers of goods
and distributors of currency. The outlook
has improved wonderfully during the past
two or three days. and there is every rea-
son for believing that the Improvement
will continue. This country is too great
and has too many varieties of industry to
be paralyzed even by such a distressing
combination of circumstances as brought
about the stringency which wrecked SO
many fortunes and for a while retarded
prosperity.

Iowa democrats have Cor the third time
nominated Horace Boies is their candidate
for governor. and now that the nomination
has been made 1t Is Interesting to recall the
fact that but little while ago Coy. Boies in
a public letter stated hat ne was conscien-
tiously opposed to third terms in an office SC
important as that of governor of a great
state. In that communication, which was
sent to the chairman Of the state demo
cratic committee. he said that his views as
to third term were undoubtedly in sub
stantial accord with those of the masses OF
Iowa's voters, and declared that to ignore
precedents and violate the almost universal
sentiment would. in his judgment. be seri-
ously detrimental to the best interests Of
the democratic party. He, therefore, de-
ciined to even tacitly consent TO The further
use of his name in connection with the nom
nation. How does he feel about it row that
he has been nominated?

Despite the opinion Of Edison-who seems
convinced that the application Of electricity
has almost reached its imit-there are in
dications that the subtle fluid will come
to be of practical use in ways as yet un-
dreamed of. Recent developments, to which
the public generally seems to pay but little
attention. support very strongly the view
that wonders are not likely soon to cease.

declared In unqualified terms his belief that
electrical communication without the Ia

ment is less surprising than most people
would imagine. for in this country there
have been many successful experiments
In which wonderful inductive power was
made apparent-notably in the feat of tele-
graphing to and from rapidly moving trains

Hardly less notable than Prof Freezes
predictions were those OF Prof. Sylvanus

ocean Telephoning." Prof. Thompson
seems to be perfectly satisfied that within
a little while conversation will be as easily
conducted between Washington and London
as It now Is between Washington and Chi
cago. The professors conclusions seem to
have been much more than merely opinion
alive; he demonstrated the feasibility Of
his proposition to the satisfaction Of criti-
cal Observation-Disclosures audience.
Simultaneously with these important an
nouncements comes evidence that there has
been invented a dynamo which will bring
about a considerable reduction in the cost
Of electric lighting and from three or four
scientists Of worldwide repute We receive
confident assurances that within the next
decade a safe and swift aerial motor will
be In successful operation. Already has the
trolley street car motor-once deemed won

In another column of today's Star will be
found q communication for the appearance
of which no apology win be made. 1t treats
of q subject that should interest those who
love the welfare Of their fellow beings and
are anxious in behalf Of the populative
mass which Abraham Lincoln lovingly
called the common people" For some
time past q movement has been afoot to
take from our parks the few seats that
were scattered at wearisome distances
throughout their green length and breadth.
and IL Is against this arbitrary and ex-
tremely unfair action that our correspondent
makes emphatic protest Two arguments
have been made by those who seek to
Justify the removal Of the benches. but
neither OF them should be permitted to
offer opposition to the reinstatement, or
better still. the multiplication of seating
accommodations.
Supersensitive residents in the near vicin-
ity of our public parks have objected to the
congregating therein Of folks with whom
they had no associauon-tired workinsmeu,
weary women and prattling children, who
laughed when there was anything to laugh
at and talked occasionally in tones that
were a trffie louder than those permitted by
polite dynamics: people who somehow or
other were possessed of the idea that the
parks were places set apart for the colser-
walton Of public health, AMI who availed
themselves freely of what should be val
liable privilege. Moved by the appeals Of
those who see in the parks nothing more
than desirable additions to their real es-
tate, the authorities have IN some Instances
taken away all the seats. and with the de-
parture of these conveniences the crowds
also departed. seeking elsewhere. often at
great Inconvenience and frequently without
avail. a spot where leafy shade and pure
air should have an opportunity to counter
act the heat and burden Of the day. The
removal OF seats Continues. and il Is fair
to presume that unless something is done in
behalf of the multitude the parks Of which
Washington is proud will deteriorate
into the merely decorative. thereby losing
almost all of a practical value. which can
not easily be estimated. IT is held that

Represents Kansas Better Than New
York.
From the New York World.
The speech OF Senator Hill yesterday was
significant chiefly because of it's uIleQuivoca,
announcement that he and his "distin.
guished colleague" Senator Murphy, will
vote for the repeal of the Sherman act. This
was generally understood before, but the
silver Senators have been hoping that be
would attach some conditions to mis- support
of the administration program that would
encourage their policy of obstruction. Fol
the rest, the speech differs from his pre-
vious ones in that it clearly defines his Pc
sition as a bimetallist and n friend of silver
coinage. Heretofore he has concealed his
real views behind a haze of words. Now he
Is on record as favoring the free coinage Ct
silver at the ratio of Is IL to !. 1t Is hardly
necessary to say that in taking this position
he represents Kansas Ear more accurately
than New York.

From the New YORK Tribune.
The Senator's criticism of President Cleve-
lands position is decidedly keen He calls
attention to the threat that the administra-
ton would give the country IAN object les
son." and to the "ghoulish glee" with which
every bank failure has been exploited as a
proof that the President was right, and he
Is meanwhile quite guarded in saying tina.
possibly the Sherman act has been most
largely instrumental in producing existing
troubles But he fatty refuses to follow
IL the President means to favor monometal-
lisn and insists on free bimetallic COIN
age" He Is plainly right In treating the
question of ratio as one of insignificant con-
sequence.

The Democrats VIII BE Amused.

r
The democrats of the state will learn with
some amusement that Mr.. Hill and his dis
tinsuished colleagues will cheerfully vote
for the repeal BILL "unawed by power and
interrupted by federal patronage" The
only power by which any Senator Is like
" to be ''awed'' into voting for the repeal
bill is the power of honest public opinion,
and for that Mr.. Hill has always shown as
much contempt as he dared. AS for the
''uncorrupted' condition Of the senior Sena-
tor from New York II has about as much
contemporaneous interest as the morals of
an Athenian hetaerae.
