To the Editor Of the Eagle.
Down here in the house of the mon
strosity that was elected last fall TO rep
resent US in congress we have three
classes Of Populist: The first L would
call No. 1, good fellows, good in every
sense but their political sense; like
them; l count some Of them among my
warmest friends: why they train in that
crowd is best known 10 themselves; but
like the prodlgal son they will sometime
come to themselves, then they will feel
like the Democrat who during a flood
took refuge in a hollow tree to escape
the rising waters and also the drcnching
rain, climbing as high as the hollow
would permit, and finding small knot
hole through which lie could breath, the
water still coming up utill there was no
hope of escape, he began thinking
over his past life, and the mean
things he had done. and among
other things he remembered be had
voted the Democratic ticket. and he felt
SO small over this that he crawled out
through the little knot hole, will the
Democrat reader please pardon me for
this iiiustration)
Next are the fighting fellows, who
may be found Gu the street corners
ready to show the documents to prove
the Republican party chargeable with
all the present evils One of these fell
lows who started out with bugle blast,
and seeming determination to outstrip
all his neightors, but by gross msman-
agement, reckless buying, and worse
than reckless building, in few years
finds himself IN the soup, and may be
seen on the streets with his pockets full
of proof to show that it was Republican
class legislation that did it. Another
one in this class who has not paid $40
taxes in as many years will tell you that
he is burthened to death with taxes lm-
posed by the Mckinley bill.
Next we have few of the blood and
gore kind, put we do net consider them
dangerous, they do their killing and
wade through the gore when the enemy
is at a safe distance; they shoot with
their little mouths. a. j. O'NEIL.

The New York Tribune, Whitelaw
Reid's newspaper, exhibits the worst case
of mash on Grover over his message
that has developed SO far. The Tribune
used 10 be in the Republican party.
Under the caption Honor to the Presi-
den," it says; 1.-The president deserves
high honor for the message, so free is it
from every suggestion of trimming and
compromise, and so earnest and so
strong in its appeal TO the good sense of
men of all parties, without distinction of
party. Men who care for the public
welfare will sustain him whenever he is
30 clearly in the right" Here is
chance for MIR. Ingalls, to get in his
work

The southern newspapers do not seem
10 be pleased with President Clevelands
message. The Memphis Appeal-Ava-
ianche criticises it sharply aud the
Atlanta Constitution says: "Cleveland's
message favors and endorses the Repub-
lican policy of repeal and entirely ignores
She Democratic policy. If he is right,
che Democratic party is wrong and has
been wrong for twenty years. If he is
right, John Sherman and his Republican
colleagues are right. The duty of the
Democrats ii congress is PLAIN and easy.
The party in the south must be held
together, but it cannot be held together
If the people become convinced that the
financial policy of the Democrats is
identical with that of John Sherman
and the Republican party" In other
words, the policy OF southern Democrats
Is to lind out what the Republican party
desires and then do the contrary thing.
and in this they are simply following the
'radition of their fathers.

IL in this form: "When a big, Ealf

Now if Mr.. Jennings can produce any
facts or figures from any more reliable
source than the above, we would like to
have him do so.
1t is well known that Mr.. T. E. Spin
ner who was United States treasurer
during portion of Mr.. Lincoln's admin
istration, regarded the 100000 of
2 $40 notes issued during the war as
money, but believe he is the only gov
er2ment official that took such view of
the matter. At one time we thought
Mr.. Spinner was authority on the money
question, but as none of the official re-
ports from Lincoln to Cleveland have
taken or Endorsed his position, we long
since abandoned Mr.. Spinner as reliable
authority on the subject. Now if Mr..
Jennings does not retract the libelous
statement made in your columns, be
will discover before l get through with
him that l am not the kind of man he
takes me to be. DIR. E. p. MILLER.

A general reduction in the number
and pay of operating forces has been
made by all the railroads in the country
in order to meet the stagnation in bust
ness. but the curtailment has been con-
fined almost exclusively to the laborers
who earn small perdiems. The Missouri
Pacific and Rock Island roads, if they
have not reversed the order, have at
least applied the retrenchment policy to
the salarled officers. This is more in
keeping with reason and common fair

THE POLICE COMMISSIONER Law.

In the last issue of his Troy Chief,
Hon. Sol Miller expresses his opinion of
the police commission law and its rele-
vancy to other economic questions in the
following plain language that is so char
acteristic of that able journalistic Kan
sas pioneer.
eve are glad this police commissioner
law has turned to plague its designers.
We voted against it, when it was before
the legislature, believing that it was an
outrage upon the people of the cities of
first class, and a blow at self govern
ment. We have been glad every day
since that we voted against it. It was
difficult to enforce the prohibitory law
IN the cities because public sentiment
and public policy was against it, There
fore, this law was devised in order that
the people of the rural districts might
control the cities. The authors of
the law. IN the days when prohibition
was at high tide, imagined that the
Republicans would always control the
state, and that through the fine manage
ment of such men as j. X. Hudson of
the Capitol, the party would always be
committed to prohibition pledge, and
the governor would be under the domi-
nation of that element. Thereby the
screws could always be put to the cities,
and they could be regulated in spite of
their people. These men never dreamed
OF tidal waves, and ground swells and
desire among the people for "change."
The law that the Republicans were bully
ragged into enacting, has become an in
strument in the hands of their enemies
with which to scourge them, and this
police commissioner machinery is being
operated as a powerful lever il the cities
against the Republican party, where its
greatest strength lay last fail"

amount of each kind of money in circu-

amount of each kind of money In circu-
iati0n 1T the time referred to.
The reader will notice that In my state
meEt it said that there never was a
larger return of money in the country,
etc., according 10 the most rei'ahle Of
fetal re ports" Now let the gentleman
give us the official reports on which he
base shis assertion that my statement is
false. He then proceeds to tell your
readers the amount of money there Is in
circulation at the present time as fol-
lows:
Now what is our money circulation to-
day?
treasury notes. S1touJU,utb
National bank notes. l.2,uU0.e0
Currency ceri ificate5. 33,so1,Ooo
Total currency 80 .US, l3o.UUO
Less than S11 per capita all told.
Ia this statement he makes no men-
ton whatever of the gold and silver
coin in the country and in circulation,
or OF United States notes issued to buy
silver, an assigns as reason for SO doing
that there was no mention OF them IN
1866. He seems to have forgotten that
in 1866 coin had not been in circulation
for over four years and that it was
nearly thirteen wears after that before
specie came into use as money.
To show the false position Of this fiat
money finance we copy the following
from the report of the secretary of the
treasury for 1892, the latest official al
nuai report and most reliable (page c All:
July /. 1892.
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1893-08-13

From these figures, taken as they are
from the most reliable official reports, it
will be seen that Mr.. Jennings comes
within 5000, SIT, 1877 of giving the correct
amount of money now in circulation
and within S13.44 of giving the correct
amount per capita, but that is about as
near correct as we can reasonably expect
deluded fiat money advocate to get at.
We copy from the same page of the
finance reports for 1892 the following
statement as to the amount of money in
the country and in circulation for the
years mentioned:
