Growing Power of the President.


The bankers of Wall street entered
into conspiracy to compel the secre-
tary of the treasury to issue bonds to get
gold. They have drawn a great many
millions in gold from the treasury dur
ing the past month, their object being to
secure all the free gold and compel the
government to dip into the 800, 900
gold reserve fund or issue bonds. Be-
hind all this furry and excitement Great
ed by the bankers, however, it can be
seen that this unusual demand for gold
is really an effort to compel congress to
repeal the Sherman silver purchase law.
And it is evident that Grover the Great
is in sympathy with the bankers of Wall
street in this matter
When Secretary Carlisle attempted to
pay demands on the government in sill
yer coin, Grover put down his great foot
and stopped it, thus playing into the
hands of Wall street. It isn't the first
time that Grover has used the treasury
department to carry out the schemes Of
the banks.
The president, although elected on a
platform containing free coinage plank,
opposes silver legislation and says that
the people shall not have it. Is the presi-
dent greater than the people? If he is, it
is about time we had an absolute mon
archy.-Cleveland Citizen.

No Such Law.

Do but listen to the New York bank
ers gravely and solemnly discussing their
''grave doubts about the legality Of any
issue Of bonds until the 100000, 900 of
reserve is exhausted" 'There is no doubt
about the legality of an issue then. 9th
ers believe that an issue at present would
be legal" This reminds me of the old
fraud called Mr.. Legality, whom Bun
vans pilgrim met. There is no law for
either the bonds or the reserve. The
bond law they talk of was simply passed
for the special resumption of Jan. 1,
1879. The reserve has no basis but in a
trick of the treasury secretaries to dis
credit the greenbacks. The way these
wretches work is well illustrated by the
way in which they found a real law upon
an imaginary one. Much of their rea-
soning is like syllogism in logic in
which the major premiss is false one.
For instance, the act of July IL, 1882
provides that the secretary of the treas
ury "shall suspend the issue of gold GER
tifcates whenever the amount of gold
coin and gold bullion in the treasury
reserved for the redemption of United
States notes falls below 800, 200, 0C0."
How imposing, how ponderous, that is
till you prick the bubble by demanding
to know on what law that reserve is
based!

Hence Those Tears.

A prolonged and unanimous wall is
going up from the printing Offices of all
the Republican dailies of the country
because, they say, certain wicked and
unregenerate Populists have drawn some
small fees from the state treasury Of
Kansas which many willing and anxious
Republicans could have been induced to
accept.
A prolonged howl similar to that at
tributed to the tabled whangdoodle is
now going the rounds of those papers,
the occasion being the payment of the
first NOR his salary to Mrs. Mary E..
Lease as member of the state board Of
charities. These grieving patriots in
sist that this salary as fixed by Repub-
ican lava law. by the way, which the
Republicans were very careful the Pop
ulists should not get the power to amend
at the last session of the legislature is
too high.
AS the Republicans had almost I'M
interrupted control of the state since its
first organization until since the last
election without making this discovery,
and as they took particular pains to
steal by anarchistic methods one branch
of the last legislature to prevent the
Populists from reducing any official sal
aries, the reason for this last lugubrious
plant seems perfectly clear.

What May Happen.

CHASTITY consequences ray and do en-
sue to many innocent people from the
way in which the mad monopolists have
been for 2O-nay, 3O-years driving us up
on the rocks Of gold basis. Yet it is
amusing to behold their present dilemma.
Unable to forecast the future they don't
know whether to back up Cleveland with
5O,OOO,O 900 of gold or simply draw into
their shells in their usual brutal way
and await the crisis and possible panic
that their villainy may bring. On one
side they see prospect Of the speedy
restoration of silver to it's proper place
that would knock half of the false value
out Of their gold based havings and hold
ings. On the other they see that any
frantic effort of theirs to bolster mono
metallism is likely only to prolong the
agony and defer for short time the in
evitable.
The money lords have already got
Cleveland all tangled up, like Bengal
tiger in net. They are tying him hand
and foot. They are compelling him to
say that he will ignore Carlisle and all
the western and southern Democrats
and do their bidding.

fer themselves as their country's saviors.
Another result of the conferences be.
tween the money lords Of New York and
the officials of government which is
supposed to be Of. by and for all the
people is the announcement that unless
the people of the west and south sur
render their convictions on the silver
question they will be punished by their
Wall street and White House masters.
Here is para. graph from recent article
in the New York Sun:
President Cleveland's advisers have told him
that the only way to induce the western and
southwestern senators and congressman to
consent to q repeal of the Sherman law is to
demonstrate to their constituents that they are
losing money every day that this law is in
operation. The missionary work in that direc-
ton has been started by q number of the bank
crs In the solid communities of the east They
are daily refusing credits to the south, south
west and west, fearing the effects of the Sher-
man law.
Everybody understands that the lad
visers Of Cleveland are bankers and
brokers in New York. It is also mat
ter of public knowledge that Cleveland
is using the Offices which are within his
control to subjugate the silver men in
congress. Carlisle assured the New
York bankers that the president would
trade the appointments for support of
his opposition to the Sherman law. No
senator or congressman is to be recog-
nized by the president unless he pledges
to vote to repeal the Sherman silver pur-
chase law.
Is not the situation an interesting one
for the contemplation of an honest citi-
zen who has been proud of his country?
Is it not beautiful picture to show to
the sons and daughters of the men in the
south and west who are to be subjugated
by the application of a boycott instituted
by the president of the United States in
conjunction with score or less of blood
sucking cormorants who squat upon
their bags of gold?
What howl goes up when there is
conference of business men somewhere
out west in the interest of the industries
and commerce of the transmississippi
states! The howl always begins in New
York, and. bless the Lord, it usually
ends here. But here is a conspiracy en-
tered into between the president of the
United States (not the president of Man
haitian island) and the Shylocks of Wall
street, the object of the conspiracy being
to compel the people to accept legisla-
ton which they do not believe in, and
the share that each party to the conspir-
acy shall perform in the bulldozing is
carefully apportioned.
The New York idea is on top. The gold
bug is in the saddle. He will ride down
every wretch that is without the badge
of the royal legion of goldbugism.

CAPTAIN KOlb of Alabama.
A Birmingham (Ala.) correspondent of
the New York Tribune saws:

A Birmingham (Ala.) correspondent of
the New York Tribune says:
In the general effort last fall to break the iron
rule of Bourbon Democracy in the south no
leader was more active than nor attracted so
much attention as Captain Reuben F. Kolb the
farmers candidate for governor in Alabama.
The eyes Of the whole country-north, south,
east and west-were fixed upon him during the
remarkable campaign that he carried on in the
face of the bitterest and most formidable OPP
position, and when he triumphed there was q
manifest disposition on all sides to place him
among those whom people delight to honor.
He became political hero, and he still retains
his popularity, at least in Alabama, notwith-
standing the fact that he was shamefully
cheated out of the election. There was tidal
wave for his election his majority being over
10000. Yet the managers of the election II the
negro counties or ''black belt'' declared ThC.ia
g. Jones elected by 5000 majority.
The organized Democrats after the election
They forget, however, that Kolb is the embod-
ballot and fair count, something that people
here have not had since 1860 and it remains to
be seen if this great impulse for reform can be
frustrated by the old mossbacks and tricksters
whose methods have made elections a farce
and the name Democracy Kissing and byword
with decent people everywhere.
Captain Kolb is strongly intrenched in the
confidence and esteem of the farmers and min
ers that it is reported they intend to nominate
him again, and if elected, as he is likely to be,
the Bourbons will embark upon a hazardous
undertaking should they attempt to count him
out again.

THAT'S the Stuff"

Congressman Boon of Minnesota, one
of the Peoples Party members of the
present congress, writes the following
to a friend who had defended him
against an old party lie. It is well worth
reading:

accurately. l shall vote for any measure con-
slider beneficial to the people, no matter which
party may propose it, and l shall vote against
everything consider unjust and detrimental
to the people even if standing alone and un-
supported in so doing. This has been, is and
will always be my firm determination. GER

nor will ever help to tear down that reform

it certainly is not the honest will and deter
mination to do right and serve the true inter-
ests of my constituents to the very best Of my
ability, always trying to accomplish the most
good to the greatest number of the people. No
corporation can boast of leading me by the
nose Our party being yet so hopelessly in the
minority / may not be able to accomplish
much more than to act and vote on the right
side, but this is all that can be reasonably de-

Evidences of Prosperity.

About week ago we happened to OBJ
serve in county paper large number
of notices of sheriff sales, and itoccurred
to us to keep a record of such as should
appear in our Kansas exchanges for one
week. We have not had time to examine
all of these exchanges, but in such as
have fallen under our eyes during the
week we have counted 267 homes adver-
tised for sale under the sheriff's hammer.
These are in 81 counties. There are 106
counties in the state. If the same ratio
holds good in the other counties, there
would be considerably over 700 homes
advertised at sheriff's sale in the state
in the week just closed. At this rate,
how long will it take to sell out the state?
The Capital might gather from these
sales quite harvest of mortgages re-
leased" for its prosperity column.-To-

TWO PICTURES.

One Shows Statesman True to His Pro-
fessions, the Other q Shirker.
'Look upon these two pictures" So
said the melancholy Hamlet to his sim
full mother. Then he drew q dreadful
contrast between her former husband,
Hamlets father, and the murderer she
afterward married. After this fashion
let US contrast two great rulers. There's
Gladstone. The people of the British
kingdom elected him to give home rule
to Ireland. He set to work manfully to
do the bidding Of his people. After great
thought and labor he prepared his great
bill, one of the greatest ever formed, and
only as late as Saturday had fought it
through the second reading of the house
of commons. He has not wasted q mo-
ment in peddling out Offices or listening
to begging Office seekers. It was not
necessary. Civil service reform rules
there in its purity. and only IS persons
changed places in the whole kingdom as
the result of the hardest fought cam
paign on the biggest principle that ever
confronted any people.
Now, having gazed on that picture,
pray cast your eye on this: The whole
United States was torn up last year to
elect Cleveland to bring about tariff re-
form. Did he do it? He hasn't said
tariff reform since he was elected. He
has devoted nine-tenths Of his. time lis
tening to cheeky Office seekers OF the pot
house variety. ''Spoils, spoils, spoils!' has
been the cry by day and night, and all
the ''great statesmen" have racked their
massive brains in schemes to GUST clerks.
postmasters, collectors. consuls, gaugers
and spittoon cleaners. What little time
was not devoted to the headsman bust
ness and the mad rush for spoils has
been consumed in devising some plan to
help the Wall street pirates to still fur
ther euchre the people by robbing them
of their currency.
There has been no pretense Of reform
of any kind or of keeping single prom
Use made to the people. The difference
is: Gladstone tells his followers what he
will do and does it to the letter. Cleve-
land sucks himself full of east wind and
blows it off in platitudinous promises to
reform everything in creation. And
then-he reforms nothing, not even him
self. Yet we claim to be the best gov
erned people on the face Of the earth.

Some Indisputable Figures Showing How

Some Indisputable Figures Showing How
the Bankers Rob the People.
1t is not generally known that during
this entire controversy over the gold
scare and the contest regarding an issue
Of bonds that the national banks held
and were using in their business abso-
lutely without interest SIC, $50, 1886 of the
peoples money. This is fact, however,
and discloses to those who are willing to
see the open handed frauds that are be-
ing perpctrated upon the people. In
stead of calling in this vast amount of
money that is being used without cost
to themselves by number of pet bank
ing institutions the government proposes
to issue bonds to buy gold to take the
place of this gratuitous loan.
During President Cleveland's previous
administration, according to the treas
ury report of 1889, he had caused to be
deposited in different national banks
enormous sums of the public funds.
These deposits amounted in April, 1888,
to the vast aggregate of $61 1921 1914.
Such fragrant misuse of public trust
has had no parallel in modern govern
ments. At the rate of 8 per cent interest,
such as the farmers and laborers of the
country are compelled to pay when they
borrow money, these deposits were an
annual gift of 81, 953, 7O3 50 to the banks
of the country. This amount has been
reduced to $40, $50, 1886 at the present
time, which, at 8 per cent, is still gratu-
ity of 1884, O66. SO yearly. The real skin
game attempted was an issue of bonds
which the banks would buy of the gov
eminent with the money the government
was loaning to them without interest.
These banks could take the $1O 550, 1886
of money loaned them by the govern
ment and buy $40, $50, 1886 in United
States bonds drawing per cent. They
could deposit this amount of bonds and
have issued to them 80 per cent of their
face value, or $9,495, 1852. 40, in national
bank currency, which they could loan
out at 8 per cent to the people. The re-
suit would be as follows:
Interest on $40, $50, 1886 in bonds at
per cent, 1915, 525.08; interest on SO, 1885,
752.40 in national bank currency, $780,
$50. 10, or total of 81 ,O76, 185.27. There
is no cutting loose from this computa-
ton or the fact that the banks could
make use of the money now on deposit
with them by the government in this
manner. That this was the object of
the gold scare there is no doubt; that the
banks would have made the most of this
opportunity the entire history Of their
past would sustain.-National Watch
