HOW HoUsE TuE VOTED

An analysis of the vote on the
Wilson Bill in the House of Represen-
tatives develops curious state Of
affairs in the Democratic party. The
vote stood 225 ayes and 124 nays. OF
the 225 ayes 113 were Democrats and
112 Republicans. Of the 124 nays 112
were Demo Gratis and IL Republicans and
Populists. Showing that had the de-
termination been left to 'he Democratic
party alone they would have had but
majority OH the Presidents recommen.
dation. 1t also clearly demonstrates
that the Democratic party is split right
in half, and that they cannot be relied
on to support the administration unan-
imously or even give anything like a
hearty support, and while the majority
in favor of the Repealis overwhelming
yet it would not have been so had not
the Republicans almost to man voted
for honest money. The Repeal Bill
could not have passed without their
support. Mr.. Cleveland recognized
this fact when he appealed to the pa
triotism of the Republican party in
this crieis. He could well count on
their support, for never was the oppor.
tunity offered that the Republican
party did not demonstrate its unyield-
ing adherence to the cause of honest
money as well as the other principles OF
sound government.

VACATION days. are ended all over ar d
the land our schools, colleges and uni
versities are preparing to open their
doors to youth and maiden and merry
hearted school boy. Thousands are,
by necessity debarred from the privi-
leges Of broad culture, while others,
bred in luxury, fail to appreciate their
opportunities and go with tagging foot
steps TO obtain life's greatest boon.
But it is a proven fact that the great
men Of tie nation have come from the
ranks that have had to struggle for
self. improvement, and those who have
obtained learning without any sacrifice
seldom set high value upon it. The
plea to-day is not SO much to make
easy the road to learning, as TO give
our youth a thorough and practical
knowledge of few things and not
simply the the theories of many things.

! rHr pREsInENT,s HEALTH


According to .sHolland'sr letter to
the Philadelphia Press in its issue Of
August 30, President Cleveland, for
two months past, has been anything
else but well man. 1t seems that
while the country supposed that ne was
enjoying himself on Mr.. Benedict's
yacht during the several days OF his
trip from Washington to Gray Gables
during the early partrof July. he was in
the hands of surgeons, and undergoing
a painful operation.
Some Of the news papers ridicule the
idea that anything more serious than
the extraction of some troublesome
teeth constituted the Presidents all
ment. But that bis malady was OF a
nature such as to cause great suffering
to himself, and much anxiety to his
friends, is too well authenticated to
admit Of denial. All of this explains
the air of mystery that has seemed to
attend the Presidents movements dur
ing the summer.
While it is the conntry's right to
know the condition of its Presidents
health, it is also fact that vast por-
tion of the people, regardless of politi-
cal affiliation, feel that Mr.. Cleveland
alone stands between the country and
iminent peril, and if it we're generally
known that his life was in danger the
present mistrust that is abroad through
out the land, would turn into the wild
est kind of panic, and we can now
see why it was perhaps wise to keep the
knowledge of his real condition from
the public, for great many people who
have no confidence whatever in the
Democrat party do steadfastly rely on
Mr.. Cleveland to adhere to a conser-
yatiye and wise policy in time of
peril.
1t is reassuring to know that the
operation by the surgeons was success
full and that he is growing strong and
well.
Whatever our political differences
may be, there is one element in the
Anglo-Saxon makeup that demands
fair play, and every patriotic heart in
the land will sympathize with the
President in his suffering and trying
ordeal, and the more so when il is
known that in keeping his trouble from
the knowledge of the public for the
public good caused him to be misunder-
stood and unfairly criticised.

HOME PRODUCTS AND FOREIGN
MARKETS.

|
MARKETS. -
WITH shortage of over one hum
dred and twenty million bushels in the
wheat crop in this country as compared
with last year, and wheat going abroad
in immense quantities, we would ordi-
narily expect wheat to command
price that would pay the farmer, but
to the contrary we find The price below
cost of production, and that of cotton
and wool approaching the free trade
level. There is no reason why wheat
should not sharply advance when once
the present financial disturbances are
quieted, with the mills and factories of
the country running with full force
and on fun time, the home market
would be sure to put wheat at good
price before spring.
In conversation With gentleman, a
few days since. who has had large ex-
perience in the grain business, he re-
marked, that he had seen, the day be-
fore, carloads of wheat of best quality
that could not be sold for any money,
because of the present contraction. At
the same time remarking that there
were no buyers except for foreign
market, and they are always low
priced. This illustrates the fact that,
to the American farmer, the home
market is of all ths world, the one on
which his hope may rest.
Any policy of government this side
the Atlantic which tends to lower the
level of wages of that vast portion of
our population who dwell in cities and
work in machine shops and elsewhere,
tends also to put the farmer Of the
United States on level with The peas
antry of Europe. When wheat is
sixty cents per bushel cheap tin, or no
tin at all, is mater of no consequence
to the husbandman, for he simply has
nothing with which to buy. The pre-
sent ''object lessonn of enforced idle
ness on the part of great portion of
the consumers of the produc Of the
soil, ought to be plain enough to pene-
trate the understanding of any deciple
of the psnny-wise-pound-foolish doc
trine of free trade as applied to the
farmer.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, August %, 1885,
The all-absorbing silver fight has now
been transferred to the Senate, the
House having passed the Wilson bill
for the unconditional repeal Of the pur-
chasing clause of the silver law, as it
has been plain for week that it would
do. The Wilson bill now goes to the
Senate where it will be referred to the
Finance committe, never to be heard
from again. The reason why this bill
will be shelved by the Senate comm
ittee is that the majority of Senators
who favor unconditional repeal prefer
the VOORHEES, bill for the same purpose,
with its tail-piece declaring it to be
the policy of the Government to man.
tain a bi-metallic currency. As
matter Of fact this declaration carries
no weight without additional legis-
lation, but it implies that there will be
future legislation and that implication
is relied upon to gain the votes of SEN
ators who would otherwise not vote
for unconditional repeal. Whether
this W i'll prove to be true only time can
tell.

In refusing admission to the senators
from Washington, Wyoming and Mon
tana, the Senate establishes the princi-
PIE that when state legislature in
session fails to elect u. S. Senator
the Governor of the state cannot ap-
point senator to fill the vacancy thus
caused. These three states must re-
main partially unrepresented until
their next session, but they have no one
to blame but their own Legislatures.

The number of Democratic Gen.
gressmen who do not agree with the
administrat ion in its treat ment Of PEN
sioners is increasing, or PERHAPS it
would be more correct to say that the
number of those who have The courage
to express their opinion is growing
larger. The latest Case is that o.
General Dan Siekles, who represents
one of the New York city districts, the
nomination having been given him by
Tammany to prevent his boiling the
Cleveland ticket. In speech on the
silver question Gen. Sickles advocated
as one Of the methods Of temporarily
relieving the money stringency that
pension claims due October 1st, be paid
at once. He said in that connection;
'sWhy not pay out now TO this large
mass Of public creditors distributed all
over the country-men and women and
children who have the most touching
claims upon public gratitude $50, ,0OO,-
600, in small bills and silverP The
money will go where it will do the
most good among the brave men who
do not hoard their pittance from dis
trust of the Government they saved
and who are to-day feeble and ntirm,
and unable to find employment to earn
living" Good as this suggestion is
there is little or no probability of its
being adopted. The administration
that pays out pension money grud-
gingly after it is due will not be likely
to anticipate the payment of dollar
of it.

There are many rumors OF defections
among the Southern free-coinage Sena-
tors. and the claim is boldly being
made that number of them will,
after making free-coinage speeches,
vote for unconditional repeal. Sena-
tors Coll and Paach, of Florida, are
said to have made positive promises to
that effect. So confident are the ad-
ministration Senators that they can get
enough votes from the South to pass
the bill, if they can only get it to vote
that PROPOSE ion has been made to
Republican Senators who favor free
coinage, not to vote for unconditional
repeal but merely to agree to allow a
vote to be taken. 1t was stated to
them. that if they would secure that
agreement the Democratic Senators
would agree that the tariff should not
be disturbed at this session of Congress,
The proposition was declined. In
making this proposition the admins
tration men showed that they realize
the difficulty in getting the bill through
the Senate, even if they can get the
promise Of the votes of majority of
the Senators. Under the present rules
of the Senate, which will not be chan
ged, twenty Senators can, if SO dis
posed, stave off indefinitely the taking
| of vote on the bill, and that more
than that number are at present so
dispnsed there can be no doubt. The
outcome of this matter depends upon
whether the men who now stand for
free coinage or nothing can be persua-
ded or coerced into allowing a vote
to be taken. Mr. Cleveland will return
to Washington this week for the pur.
pose Of adding his personal influence
to those already being brought to bear
on the Southern Senator's to vote for
repeal.

ought to please every man interested
