Cheerful View.

Atlanta Constitution.
"Those who are inclined to look
on the bright side of the financial
situation present some very cheer
full facts in support of their view.
"Gold is coming back to US from
Europe in large sums every week.
Our exports are much heavier thar
our imports. Many of the suspend
ed banks have resumed or about to
resume business. In nearly every
failure or suspension the fact has
been shown that the concerns had
plenty of assets but were unable to
command the cash they needed on
short notice. Our crops will soon
be in the market and Europe stands
ready to pay gold for them.
"Congress will get to work in a
few days, and as it is unreasonable
to suppose that the Democratic
party will repudiate the pledges in
Its platform, we are Justined IN
believing that the reforms demand
ed by the people will be carried out.
When the signal comes from Wash
ington, trade will revive, our lang
uishing industries will go ahead
with a rush, and the reaction from
a period of depression may bring
something like flush times.
"Let congress press the button
and the people will do the rest.
The first indication of the determi
nation of the administration to car
ry out the promises of the Demo
cratic platform Will restore conf
-dence in every quarter of the re-
public, and when that is done our
financial depression will be a thing
of the past"

The Pittsburg Post says "Ex.
President Harrison in letter to
the New York Republican Club
commiserates the country on the
financial distress he intimates that
attends Democratic rule, with the
resulting implication that if he had
been reelected matters would have
been all right.
The best way to judge of that is
to take thecondition of the country
when Mr.. Harrison succeeded TO
power after four years of Cleveland,
and when Mr.. Cleveland succeeded
after four years of Harrison.
When Mr.. Cleveland gave way to
Harrison in 1889 there was a sur
plus in tho treasury of sS5,OOO,o 600.
The free gold above the reserve was
sos, 100000. The annual excess of
revenues over expenditures was
s1OO,OOO,OOO. The silver purchased
was coined and not stored away
like useless metal. The country was
prosperous. Gold was coming our
way-the net gain in four years
being STATEHOOD. The public debt
was being paid and the legal re-
quirements of the sinking fund were
lived up to.
That was the point of view at the
close of four years of Cleveland.
How is it now after four years of
Harrison2 The surplus has disap-
peared. The free gold is gone. We
have sent during that four years
1922, 100000 gold to Europe. and
have in its place s124, 100000 worth
of silver bullion of no use to any
one. The expenditures of the gov
eminent exceed it's receipts, al
though the latter have been increas-
ed. The Sherman law threatens
credits and unsettles business. The
payments on account of the public
debt have been suspended. The
country is ground down by trusts
and combinations.
Such are the fruits of four years
of Harrison, Mckinley and Reed,
mainly embodied in the acts of the
billion dollar congress and the ex-
travagance of the late administra-
ton 1t is faith in President Cleve-
land that saves the country from a
panic

COngressiOnal Candidates.

There is much interest being
manifested as to who shall be the
next Democratic nominee for Con-
gress in the Fourth District. In
CabelI, the friends of Judge Harvey
are pushing his claims for the nom
ination. That he is man of SPLEEN
did ability and great personal popu-
Iarity cannot be denied, and should
he be our standard bearer every
Democrat in the District would rally
to his support. But as Cabell has
already been honored twice by a
Congressman from that county, it is
likely that other counties will con-
test with Cabell for Representative
in Congress. Putnam will have a
candidate in the person of Hon. W.
w. Thomas, who is a hustler when
it comes to politics, and also a gen.
tleman of ability and popularity,
and would make as strong a
race as any man the Democrats
could nominate. Then, here in
Mason, as we'll as in other parts of
the District, there is a strong feel
ing to return Hon. James Capehart,
but whether he would accept third
term we are not advised. We be-
lieve, however, that if he will ac-
cept denomination he would get
it without much effort on his part
Up in Wood the friends of Judge
McCluer are pressing his claims for
the nomination. The Judge is well
known throughout the District, and
his many friends would like to see
him the Democratic nominee for
Congress. Then Calhoun comes
with her gallant young Democrat,
Hon. John III. Hamilton, and will
push him for the nomination; and
should he enter the contest for the
nomination he will have a strong
support from all parts of the Dis
trict. These are all the candidates
now, so far as we know, and they
are all simon-pure Democrats, and
right on the silver and tariff planks
of the National Democratic Plat
form, and any one of them will re-
ceive the hearty endorsement of the
Democrats of the Fourth District.

The Republican newspapers, for
the sake of creating feeling of hos
tility toward the present admins
tratnon, are diseouraging old soldiers
from making application for pen
sions. The Athens Messenger is
among the number. 1t says:
"The great difficulty of obtaining
either an increase or an original
pension in the face of the hostility
which the present administration
manifests toward the old soldiers is
attended with the effect of discourZ
aging effort to obtain a pension
however meritorious may be the
claim of the applicant"
We advise deserving old soldiers
to pay no attention to this effort of
the Messenger to prevent application
for pensions. The hostility of the
Republican press is vastly more
damaging to the soldiers interests
than anything their old comrade,
Judge Dochren, has done or will do.
The "present Administration" will
comply with the laws of Congress,
and not set them aside as Raum
did."-McArthur co., Democrat.

TREASURY STATEMENT.
Gold Is Daily Increasing, and Prosperit.
na4......i..

Gold Is Daily Increasing, and Prosperity Is
Returning.
WASHINGTON. Aug. s.-The gold in
the treasury is daily increasing. 1t
stands today S1O2, 291, 395, or 81, 201, S95
above the reserve. The net balance of
the treasury, however. from the treas
urer's statement just issued shows a
decrease, attributed largely to falling
off in custom receipts. This balance is
SIS, $50, 122. The subsidiary silver in
the treasury made up of halves, quar-
tiers and dimes amounts to S12, sos, 600.
So far this month the receipts i'll
ronnd figures amount to $4,000, 600 and
the expenditures to 81, 750, 900; of which
100000 have been paid on the pension
account. These large expenditures
have eaten into the net balance and re-
duced it.
The fact that custom receipts are
falling off, while it affects the govern
ment revenue from that source, hes an
opposite bearing upon the general pros
perity of the country as it shows that
less money is being expended abroad
for imported merchandise

Senator Vest, of Missouri, in speak
ing of the financial situation, says
that we have arrived at the most
critical period of our financial his
tory. he says:
ave have been travelling along
on makeshifts ofOne kind and anoth-
or since 1878. Expedients will avail
no longer. We are at the parting
of the ways, and must take definite
decided action one way or the other.
We must either take up our silver
and defend it against the world, or
drop it, demonitize it; declare that
it is not available as a basis of cur
rency, and declare that the consti-
tutional right granted to Congress
to coin money means that we shall
coin gold only"
Senator Vest lives in a State
where the people are earnestly and
persistentIy demanding more mon
ey. They are not identified with
silver mining interests. They sim
ply want more money. Senator
Vest says that if a vote were taken
the majority in Missouri to retain
silver would be 100000.

Governor Costa of the province of

of escaping. His forces are demoralized.

Bosch, member of the chamber of
deputies, asked the cabinet to send a
warship to La Plata to aid Governor
Costa in defending the city, but the re-
quest was not granted. Governor Costa
suffered the humiliation of having the
government to directly refuse to aid
him. Members of the cabinet informed
his representatives that the national gov
ernmen would maintain strict neutral

ing within its limits the largest artesian
well in the United States, or, for that
matter, in the world. Early dispatches
placed the flow at 5000 gallons per
minute, but since then the flow has in
creased until it reached the enormous
amount of 5000 gallons. The well IS
eight inches in diameter and the water
is thrown to the height of over IA feet
above the top of the pipe. The only
pares with the well here is at st. Au-
gustine, Fla, which is 10 inches in di-
ameter and has a flow of over 1000
gallons per minute. Hundreds of peo-
pie from all parts of the state are daily
inspecting tue wonderful spouter.
