! The Hobber Barons may exult over
the temporary obscuration of the tariff
issue. They may gloat over the hope
Of having an apostate in the elected
chief ofTthe tariff reform army. They
may faicy that the silver muddle will
keep the Mckinley swindle in the
background Butthey reckon without
their host. No man is essential to
tariff reform. Not even the weakness
or the recreancy OF an administration
can stay, though it might retard. the
march OF free trade in America. ~

spect, and his Willingness is probably
assumed on the ground that he can
continue to hold his seat only through

ture There is no ground upon which
i his ability as stateman is to be as
sumel.-New York Times. Dem.

back prosperity to every interest will
come hand in hand with it. Loss OF

every man who has money in safe de-

banks money would be easier than
ever known before. The money is

Gov. Walte's speech about blood to

The president OF the Peoples Savings

1t may be worth while to remember
that a large number of the 200 bank

unable to realize on their collaterals

forced into liquidation. as was the case
