JULY REVIEW OF REVIEWS.

! To repeal the ten per cent. tax upon
State bank notes would mean that
Maine, Kansas, California. North OAK
ota, Ohio, and all the other States
would be IN position to authorize local
banking institutions to food the
country with paper money which could
have no certainty of uniform safety
and value. A Mmri Dwiggins might
chain of local banks on
'unsound principles aud issue paper
money which, mingled with the
general volume, Of the country's
currency, would be worthless in the
hands of the last holders on the fail
ure Of the banks. It is now asserted
in some quarters, that Congress will
refuse to repeal the harmful silver
purchase act unless that repeal be ac-
companied by the resurrection of the
still more pernicious system OF "wild-
cat" paper money that was buried
thirty years ago. Whatever may or
may not be done with our currency
laws, every business man, every farm
or, every professional man who re-
ceives a salary, and every. man or
woman who earns wages or has fixed
money income, should insist abso-
lutely upon a national, uniform
currency, with the United States
government at the back of every
dollar in circulation.

The RAILROAD AND THE FAIR.

The managers Of the Fair have been
much exercised, over the illiberal
policy which the railroads have thus
far shown. 1t was expected as matter
OF course that the roads would make
very low rates. to- Chicago from all
parts of the country. AS. yet they.
have shown q, very reluctant dis,
position to do anything of the Sort,
Yet itwould rebound to the permanent
advantage of the principal roads if
they. should do. everything in their
power this summer to stimulate travel.
Low passenger, rates tire capable of
producing astonishing results. They
incite multitudes to travel who never
travelled before; and these new travel
ers, having once tasted of the luxery,
will travel again and yet again.
Moreover, the Fair at Chicago can but
have marked effect nthe nations
industrial development and therefore
upon the future traffic of the railways;
and the greater the throng of visitors
the more important the. results. It
should be the policy of every railroad
in the country to carry the largest
possible percentage Of the people who
live along ito Jaes for. at least cone
visitstpthe Fair. It might be q good
plansfor them to aid their patrons, in
finding suitable accommodations at

A Desperate Plan for an Outbreak of
Prisoners Frustrated by a Colored De-
tective.
FRANKFORT, KY, May 23.-A desper-
ate plan for an outbreak at the peni-
tentiary was nipped in the bud Sun
day by the vigilance of Warden Nor
man. For more than week there has
been suspicion of some kind of a con-
spiracy. A negro convict was used by
the warden as detective. 1t was
learned from him that there was about
sixteen in the gang, all life men.
George Meade, w. III. Little, Leon
Brookshire Harrison (colored), R. w.
Talent and William Hockenslith were
all locked up and knives were found in
the lappels of each of their coats.
Each man had file in his pocket. The
plan was either to make the break
while the Sunday-school jeachers were
coming out of the gate or follow a
wagon to the gate where several of
them would overpower the guards and
so make their escape. Sufficient evi-
dence has not yet been found against
the others of the gang to cause their
arrest, but close watch is being kept.

DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY.
A Subterfuge for Getting Rid Of once
Holding Republicans.


According to the dispatches from
Washington the new administration is
engaged in an economic crusade 1t is
dlsmlssing unnecessary employees" by
the hundred to save the taxpayers
money. The secretary of agriculture
has asked for and received much free
advertising on account of his Jealous
efforts to reduce expenses. No one should
misunderstood this economic fervor.
which is always displayed when dem
ocratic administration takes hold Of the
affairs of the nation, of state, or Of
municipality. That party always prom
ises the voters ''retrenchment and re-
form" 1t retrenches for month and
then goes in for unbridled extravaganza
during the rest of its term of Office.
The present economical fit az Wash
ington will last until number Of re-
publicans have been put out of office
Then it will cease, and a greedy, per-
sistent effort will be made by every
secretary and bureau chief to crowd in
two hungry loafers and partiSans to re-
place every republican who has been
elected. The removals and the reduc-
ton Of expenses will be proclaimed far
and wide and will be Dragged of by
every democratic paper The appoint
ments and the increase of expenses will
be kept quiet No democratic paper
will have a word to say concerning
them. Little win be known about
them until the swelling appropriation
bills give an idea of the cost of a demo-
cratic administration.
That has been the record Of the party
always and everywhere. Its leaders
cry economy when out of Office and
practice wastcfulness when in. The
chief use of public money in their
opinion is to feed hordes of hungry re-
tainers. Nepotism, extravaganza and
boodling are ingrained qualities from
which they cannot or at least do not
try to free themselves. As it is at
Washington, SO 1t is at Springfield. The
democrats promised the voters ''re-
trenchment and reform" if put in
power. Instead of economizing, tie
present legislature, which is democratic
in both branches, will impose heavier
burdens on the taxpayers than any
of its predecessors. The promised re-
forms consist in dismissing experienced
and trustworthy men from charitable
institutions and placing the wards Of
the state in the charge Of men who are
expected to spend their time for the
next year and a half in boosting the
governor into the United States sem
ate.
The taxpayers litany should run:
From democratic economy, good
Lord, deliver u.s." The dismissal Of
one republican is followed speedily by
the appointment of two democratic
loafcrs, who draw twice as much
money and do about half as much work.

SEEING THE SIGHTS,

me spanish Infanta Show the Sights u
Washington, Among Them the Vast
EHes OF Gold and Silver In the National
treasury Vaults-The Princess Takes
readily to Republican Simplicity and
appreciates the Efforts to Make Her
Visit Pleasant.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-The visit of
the lnfanta to the treasury department
was intended to be mere tour of in
spection without any publicity. The
hour OF her arrival at the department.
L o'clocS-was not made known
through the newspapers, and it was
thus hoped to avoid any crowd and al
low the royal visitors to pass through
the buildings as quietly as possible.
Her visit, however, resulted in an ova-
ton.
Secretary Carlisle received the party
in his Office and offering the princess
ms arm, led the party to the Office of
Assistant Treasurer Meline. who acted
as escort through the money vaults,
where so many millions of gold and
silver are stored.
The news had spread so that the cor
rldor around Mr.. Meline's Office was
hlled with men and women. The
women were the more strenuous In
their efforts to see her royaE highness.
They fairly climbed over the men in
trying to reach the grated doors.
1t was the infanta's first experience
with q crowd of American women. and
she enjoyed it. A look of surprise
passed over Eulalia's 5 face at first, and
then, impulsively, she walked over to
the grating and nodded her head
brisl<ly and, with her face wreathed in
smiles, talked in English to her Amer
lean admirers.
After the infanta had seen all that
was to be seen she came out into the
corridor again on the way to the car
riage, leaning on the arm of Secretary
Carlisle. 'Good-by; good-by," cried
the infanta to the women as she passed
through the ranks. ''Good-by; thank
YOU she cried again, smiling, while
even the stern face of Mr.. Carlisle re-
laxed. The prince and the others in
the party were laughing heartily, and
as they entered the carriages they
caught the echoes of most fattering
remarks about the beauty and grace
fulness of the princess.
From the treasury department the
infanta and her party were driven to
the Washington monument. The ele-
vator had been started for some time,
and Il. was waiting when the royal
visitors arrived. After a trip to the
top, where some time was spent in
viewing the landscape, the carriages
were re-entered and the party driven
to the capitol.
At 6 o'clock the infanta was given
serenade by the Marine band under
Prof. Fanciulli. This was arranged by
Secretary Herbert. At night she was
entertained at an unofficial dinner
given by Mr.. and Mrs. Curry.
The excursion to Mount Vernon was
postponed until Wednesday.

OUT OF THE TRUST
And Careless as to What Becomes OF IL
Hereafter.

CHICAGO, May 23.-Jacob Woolner, a
member of one of the firms which an
nounced its withdrawal from the
whisky trust, is at the Grand Pacific
hotel. When asked about the alleged
disruption of the trust he said: Il
don't know what action the directors
of the cattle feeding company will take
with reference to the matter, nor do
care. We are out of it now and our af-
fairs can not be interfered with by the
courts, nor can receiver control our
property if one is appointed for the
company, Fbelieve that the consollda-
ton of the distillery interests is once
and for all time broken up. How 1T
will affect the stock | neither know
nor care. l would not have pulled out
had not the law proceedings been be-
gun. We were forced to withdraw to
protect ourselves. The whole matter
has come about in the most unprece-
dented way: not even at the recent
directors meeting here was there a
word said about it. There have been
no further developments so far as l
know.
