THE PRESIDENTS HEALTH.

There Is considerable comment in
Washington respecting the departure
of the president at the very begin
ming of this important session of con-
gress for Buzzard's roost; and no
little anxiety is expressed concerning
his health The Washington Star of
the 18th INST. commenting upon a
criticism of the president by the Phils-
delphis Press says:
The Press does not apparently see the sig
niicance of the announcement that the
president goes away under medical advice
as absolutely necessary" to his health and
strength. President Cleveland is not man
to shirk work or responsibility, as his record
sbundantly shows, and it is certain that his
departure at this junoture is not for fun, but
under the imperative orders Of his doctors.
Mr.. Cleveland's life is very important TO the
country just now, and it is ferVently to be
hoped that he will get the desired benefit
from quiet rest by the sea- side.
If the presidents physicians under
stand his case fully they will see to it
that he not cnly has "a quiet rest by
the seaside" and enjoys the salt sea
breezes, but that he also has plenty
of good fresh water to drink. Other
remedies may be necessary, but this
should not be neglected The water
cure is highly commended by the best
medical authorities IN such cases.

At the last meeting Of the W. P. P.

resolution was adopted:
WHEREAS, The effort of the monometsl-
lists to secure the unconditional repeal Of the
Sherman law has enhanced the financial de-
preston OF the present time, thrown hum
dreds out of employment, and is an effort
TO contract the circulating medium Of ex-
change in the interest Of the money power
Of this and other countries; therefore be it
Resolved, By the WOman's Progressive
Political League, Of Topeka, that we ask
our representatives in congress TO vote and
use their influence for the free and unlim-
tied coinage Of silver at its present ratio Of
16 to l, that the dollar of Washington's
time may not be sacrificed TO the selfish
ness and avarioe Of the monometalists,
while the laboring people Of all classes are
thrown into a slavery from which they can
never be freed, except by a bloody war or
slavery, far more horrible to contemplate
than was ever African slavery.

the banks, the dispensers of sovereign
favor, and borrow their own money at

provided that they alone shall profit by

man against this threatened iniquity.

WHEN a business house fails now
they say it has "gone Democratic"
Weaver Still Fighting,

ERIE, PA, August Ills it possible
that an intelligent people shall longer
fail to understand what is going on in
the councils Of the money kingsP With
either the Bland act or the Sherman act
in force, the banks can only partially
control the volume of the money. With
free coinage they realize that their con-
troll over the volume is forever gone. The
people will then have an independent
source Of supply and control the profits
of their own toll. Hence the great ques-
tion OF ciVilizRtion-who shall control
the volume Of our money-the people or
the banks-is now the uppermost ques-
tion of the hour.
In every calamity the money power
steps in and demands new CONCESSIONS
and new grants Of power. They have
purposely brought on present distresses
that they may wrench from q suffering
people another pound OF flesh to be cut
from near the heart Of the nation. 1t is
about time that the people should step
IN and demand recognition and compel
our lawmakers to obey the constitution
which places the control Of our circulat-
ing medium in the hands Of congress.
The constitution has expressly taken
away from the states and from indi-
vldusls the power to issue or create
money. What right has congress to re-
turn that power to those from whom the
fundamental law has taken itp
BY their great haste to secure su-
thority to issue their notes at the par
value Of the bond, they have openly con.
ceded the necessity for q material in
crease in the volume Of our money; and
the secretary of the treasury in APPROX
ing the Voorhees, bill, has certified to
the overshadowing necessity for the in
crease. But neither the banks nor the
secretary are willing that the people
shall be relieved unless they will consent
that their government shall first issue
the money and then bsstow it upon the

would do we'll to prescribe a similar

A Letter.


To the Peoples Party of the State of Kan
sds, and aH Friends of Reformation:
These are the times that try mems
souls. The history Of the country for
the last thirty years shows conclusively
that our government both state and ma
tional, has been run in the interest Of the
classes and against the masses.
This needs no further argument upon
the part Of honest thinking people. The
present financial condition Of the COun-
try demonstrates in laundering tones
what will always be the ripened fruit Of
financial misrlle. What we now need is
moral Courcge, untainted with the hope
of selfish or personal gains, to stand
firmly for the homes Of our country, and
those eternal truths as given to the
world in the Omaha Platform.
No honest man, who understands the
situation, will for moment contend that
there is any differsnce between the two
old parties upon the vital issues Of the
day. Therefore we can look for no as
sistRnce or encouragement from either
Of them, and il help ever comes to US it
must come in spite Of them.
The hour has come when we must
plant ourselves squarly in the middle Of
the road" neither looking to the right
nor left, nor wavering hairs breadth
from the principles we advocate. Nor
can we afford under any circumstances
to make any alliances, or endRnger our
cause by afilliRting or combining with
those who are opposed to the vital issues
for which we stand. II we are in politics
to get places for men, what benefit are
we to humanityP OF what use is it to
elect me or any other man to office il the
reforms we seek cannot come? Let US
live and labor, not for self, but for the
present and future generations. 1t ia
supposed that all legislation has for its
object the greatest good to the greatest
number, but this can never be, until our
laws shall recognize no distinction be-
tween rich and poor, black or white male
or female, and all laws are respected and
obeyed. Let us keep in the middle Of
the road and try with all our might to
make the world better because we have
lived in it. Yours for success,

are doing, they would now be, like
our brilliant Ingalls,, out of job.

The "little furry" has passed into
a third stage. First it was the fail
ing of the Jim crow banks and weak
institutions; then the stronger con-
Germs began to go. Now thousands
of men are out looking for a job,
bread riots are the order of the day,
and the cries Of the hungry make
sweet music for the ears of the adj
ministration and the fnanciers of
Wall street. Give us honest money.

That excellent specimen of super
anusted craftsmanship, Senator Chan
dIer, who recently gave as his opinion
that Judge Martin was not elected

degenerate people of New Hampshire.

be likened to the hat your great
grandfather wore. AS to his useful
ness-ancient history must be con-

tion. This shows conclusively why
government paper money was at a
discount, and Senator Sherman said
it was "purpOSely deprecated IN
order to make a market for the
bonds" into which the 'greenbacks
were convertible.
Nor did greenbscks rise to par be-
cause ''it was known there was gold
in the treasury to redeem them on
demand" as stated in the Journals
quotation. They rose to par when
the secretary of the treasury issued
his order to the custom houses to re-
ceive them for duties, thereby re-
moving the only cause that ever
forced them belolU par; and they
rose to par because of thisgorder, and
not because of any possibility of gold
redemption.
What keeps these notes at par to-
day? The government has the hard
est KIND of work to keep $10O,000,O00
of gold in the treasury for the pur-
pose, ostensibly, of redeeming $780,
OSO,OOO of them. Is it the certainty
that the whole $346,00O,00O would be
redeemed in gold on demand that
causes them to remain at par, and
even to command a premium in Wall
street? If the Journal knows any
thing, it knows better than this
There is a law upon the statute books
to-day that absolutely prohibits their
final redemption and retirement, and
that is all that saves them from ex-
termination or has done so under
several previous administrations. And
yet they continue to go at par, not
because people know that the gold is
in the treasury for their redemption,
for they do not know this to be a
fact, but because being receivable
now for duties they are not dis
credited by the government itself.
The Lawrence Journal would bet
ter stick to subjects that it knows
something about.

CONDITION OF NATIONAL BANKS

Another evidence of the exceed

country is found in the official re-
ports made by the comptroller of the

the national banks. These abstracts
are made by the comptroller from re-
ports obtained from all the national

tribution, but are sent to banks and

The resources of the banks have
decreased over $245,OO the capi-
tai stock and the individual deposits
have decreased, while the unpaid
