HE'S ALL RIGHT,

Senator Carlisle Suits the Wall Street
Plutocrats to Dot-They Vouch For
Him.
In 1890 Senator Carlisle voted for The
free coinage amendment to the silver
bill of that year, and would not vote
for the bill prepared by the conference
committee because it did not provide
for free coinage.
Strange that such a strong silverite
should be talked of as secretary of the
treasury in Clevelands cabinet. But
the milk in the cabinet cocoanut is &C.
counted for by the fact that Mr. Car
Isle now says:
81 am in favor of absolutely repeating
the Sherman law and not bringing into
force again the Bland law. In other
words, am in favor of wiping out sill
yer legislation altogether. believe
the country has had all the silver it caa
stand or consume at the present"
The Kentucky senator, therefore, is
all right" The silver scales have
fallen from his gold-bug eyes and he
can see Wall street without telescope
And in addition to all the rest the Chi
cago Tribune vouches for the sound
ness of his financial views. 1t says:
1T is gratifying to know that if the
senator is to be the secretary of the
treasury the Office will be filed by a
man who is opposed utterly to cursing
the country with a stumptail silver
currency. The senator says further
that he feels confident that before the
senate adjourns it will either take ac-
ton abolishing altogether or suspend
ing the purchase of silver. 1t is to be
hoped that he represents the views of
other democratic senator's If they as
sumo that position with substantial
unauimity it may be possible to get rid
of the present system ofsilver purchase
at this session"
Again we assert that Mr.. Carlisle is
"all right" He is just the man that
Cleveland wants for secretary of the
treasury. He will suit the Rothschilds
and the gold-bugs of Wall street to
dot-Chicago Sentinel.

The Sugar Bounty.

1t looks as if there is a conspi-
racy by some individuals against
the sugar bounty law. The follow
ing special taken from the Times
Democrat will show the scheme:
1t Is no longer secret that it was
Mr.. Edward Atkinson who made
the suggestion to the President
that the question of the constitu-
tionalty of the sugar bounty could
be brought before the Supreme
Court by refusing to issue any
more warrants for the payment of
bounty claims.
"A single test case, brought to
determine that question" said Mr..
Atkinson, would become one of
the most important ever brought
before the Supreme Court of the
nation. The question has been
raised as to whether or not this
obligation on the part of the Uni
ted States is lawful one, and if
1t IS whether or not it may not be
covered by small duty on coffee.
l merely know that the question
has been mooted, and that a suc- |
gestion has been made to have the
issue decided in the very simple
way of declining to make any
more payments.
state courts have invariably de-
'lded that bounties granted by
States, cities and towns for the
purpose of sustaining special
branches of industries we're not
awful. Several of the judges of
he Supreme Court, in their pre-
ious positions on the bench in
lfferent States, have rendered de-
lslons to that effect. The ONLY
'ay in which the sugar bounty ]
an be sustained under the action
Congress would be for the Su- !
RENE Court to rule that the !
tates had delegated to Congress :
overs very much greater than !
leir own. If it should happen l
lat the court held that it was not ]
the power of Congress to tax a
lie citizens in general for the pur- a =
'se OF granting bounty to a 4 4
W private individuals, the future z
of revenue and expendi- G
re would be to that extend rem

We have already received several

seems to take an active interest in
the welfare and prosperity of his
native town, writes us an interest.

tributes a plan for the ground.
which can be seen at our Office.
Ihe plan is a splendid one. and
would be the very thing needed to

move If he will, the people will
