When people talk about grasping mon
opolists, who stuff their own pockets while
grinding down their employees to the low
est possible wages, they should take a
glance at the Queen OF England. She
receives about 81, 900, 0o0 year from the
taxpayers of England, besides enormous
sums for the support OF her family, yet
the testimony brought out In a recent
trial in court shows that her employees are
ground down to the last limit. A man
working as carter upon her estate at
Windsor was sued for the recovery OF q
small sum Of money. He testified that
his wages were only $3.50 week and
lodging, and this left him nothing to pay
his debts with. The Judge reminded him
of the honor of working for the Queen,
but the carter pithily answered that there
was not much henor to be got cut Of 10
chilling a week. Other witnesses teetiiied
that the Queen pays her help from 30
cents to 81 week less than the ruling
wages 10 the district. As these average
only about IS. 80 a week, 1t will be seen
that she grinds the faces of the poor very
remorselessly.

Senator Edmonds Is unqueslionably
right In attribuiing the business depres-
sion in this country to fear of the effect
OF Democratic policies that triumphed
in the last election. 1t is simply the nat
ursl fulfillment of predictions OF such
results made last year by the Republican
newspapers and stump speakers. These
declared in solemn but unheeded words
of warning, that business disaster would
result from the ''change" advocated by
the free trade party.

Wise or unwise. but probably the former,
that was the prerogative of the trustees.
Once determined on. there should be no
appeal. and, least of all, an instruction
of students who pay no tuition against
the judgment of the officers upon whom
the management of the institution de-
wolves. The young people are not in
the school for that purpose. If they do
not like the instruction which the State
provides they can leave the school, but
so long as they remain they should ac-
cept the instructors provided and abide
by the regulations of the institution.
Therefore the ringleaders who led in the
kissing of the president. who is not re-
sponsible for the change which has
aroused indignation. should be expelled
or suspended, and others who made it
their business to tender their advice to
the Governor should be disciplined.
When the Normal School shall be con-
trolied by the students it will be very
much the same sort of a school as these
same Normal School students would
teach after they graduate If their pu-
pills should set up their authority. 1t
may happen that the pupils in the
schools which these protesting normal
students may come to teach will take it
into their heads that they prefer other
teachers. In such an event. would these
insurrectionary Normal School people,
as teachers, leave their schools?

WILL THE PRESIDENT DO IT7

In his latest semi official avOwal the
President declared that "the timidity
of capital is painfully apparent" and
that no one "can fail to see that fear
and apprehension in monetary circles
will ultimately bring suffering TO every
humble home in the land" MIR. Cleve-
land could not have made these state
ments month before his election.
Never was capital in better courage or
feeling more secure. All the industries
of the country were in the midst of an
activity rarely if ever known. New in
dustries were opening and new plants
were building. But after Mr.. Glove
land was elected there came a change.
The work on scores of new factories
ceased. One ceased to find list of
new enterprises undertaken by foreign
capital. The great iron industry began
to receive, not orders, but the revoca-
ton of orders. From an unprecedented
energy and development before the
election, the wooden industry paused
and then began to draw III. The
same is true of the glass and
pottery industries. They have taken in
sail, fearful of q storm. The fear of
catastrophe to manufacturing industries
through the radical tariff legislation to
which the Cleveland party is pledged
has led banks to be much more cautious
with that class of their customers. Now
it is apprehension that is doing the mis-
chief, but it Is apprehension of Cleve-
land tariff legislation which will open
our markets to foreign competitors that
will bring suffering to every hum BILE
home in the land" because that legisla-
ton will transfer to Europe the labor
which has given them good wages.
The President has the remedy largely
in his own hands. The Sherman silver
law has, doubtless, added to the general
uncertainty to limited extent, but if
the country were assured that there
will be no radical tariff legislation the
confidence which received q staggering
blow in the election of last November
would slowly return. If the President
would dissipate the uncertainty and re-
store in large measure the high con-
fidence prevailing in business interests
before the last election. he can do SO by
declaring that he is opposed to any gen.
eral tariff legislation by the incoming
Congress. Has the President the cOur-
age to do thisq

thought DR.. Carver made q good school
commissioner. and he would aid in his re-
election. AT noon. yesterday. the friends
of Charles MartindsIe persuaded that gen.

voters of that district will have the choice
of two clean men. Dr.. carp desires to

efforts TO see the Duke. was estimated at
from $4,000 10 1000 people. and they could

RAILROADS have been made the vic
tins of much injustice in the way of
meddlesome and arbitrary rates i'm
posed by the State authorities, but the
most fragrant case of the kind that has
come under our notice has occurred in
South Carolina. Readers of the Jour
nal are aware that the last Legislature
in that State passed law giving the
State a monopoly of the handling and
sale of intoxicating liquors. The prime
object of the law is to secure for the
State whatever profit there may be in
the liquor traffic. To enhance its prof
its the State Railroad Commission has
made a reduction of freight rates on
whisky from to Z cents per hundred
pounds, shipped at carriers risk, and
from TO 10 cents released. Nearly all
the railroads in South Carolina are in
the hands of receivers. In other words,
they are bankrupt: yet in the face of
this condition, the railroad commission
ers make this arbitrary reduction of
rates on whisky IN order that the State
may get the benefit of it. This is moth
ing less than tho confiscation of COR
porate property for the benefit of the
State.

IT IS NOT RECIPROCITY,

1t is very evident that those people
who have participated in the so-called
reciprocity convention IN st. Paul are
not the farmers and other producers in
the Northwestern States. Further, their
resolution shows that they do not COM
prehend the theory upon which recip-
rocal trade arrangements between two
nations are based. Reciprocity with
Cuba. Brazil and such countries is a
natural relation, for the reason that the
chief articles which are produced in
these countries are not produced here,
and Uice rerSd. But the st. Paul reso-
luton speaks of the exchange of the
natural and industrial products between
Canada and the United States. The
natural products OF Canada and the
United States are the same. They are
the same products OF the farm, the
forest and the quarry. Canada pro-
duces twice as much of these products as
her people can use, and our own farmers
need the whole of the home mar
ket for their products. The farm
ers of the United States could not
sell horses. cattle, hay. weol, bar
ley, potatoes. f1axseed. poultry. eggs
and like articles in Canada. for the rea-
son that Canada produces twice as much
of them as her people can consume. In
the cities of the United States there is a
valuable market for these products of
the soil. but the farmers of this country
h,xs< do, Iwrs In % >lxv %t.& Il.
mand at reasonable prices. Open these
markets to Canada and there will be a
glut which, il il does not cut down
prices, will create dullness and condi-
tiOns adverse to q large number of
American farmers. If both countries
afforded the same market for the prod
ucts of both, duties might be- abolished
and sort of unnecessary reciprocity
might be adopted; but that is not reci-
prOcity which gives the markets of the
United States to a competitor-it is the
competition of free trade. There can
be nothing reciprocal about it. as one
side gets all the advantage and
the other sustains corresponding
disadvantage. If Canada could be
opened to the free export of
the products CT our manufacturers
it would be- different. Then what
the farmer would lose might be partly
made good by what manufacturers
would gain. But Canada. being under
the guardianship of Great Britain, will
not be permitted to extend free trade TO
other than farm and forest products,
and free trade in them is not reciprocity.

THE Augusta Chronicle, which is an
extreme advocate of free silver coinage,
says: "Put the government stamp on
tin, as is done on nickel, and it ought to
be as valuable for currency as the paper
money issued by the government" The
Chronicle falls into the common error of
suppOsing that the government stamp
on currency OF coin of any kind confers
value. This is not the case. Tho gov
eminent stamp is simply a certificate Of
tineness. The gold bullion that goes to
make a twenty dollar gold piece was
worth as much before it was coined and
stamped as it is afterward, and would
be worth just as much if it were melted
down. But what would twenty dollar
greenback be worth If melted down or
burned? The government stamp does
not confer any value on paper currency,
but the government promise to redeem
it in coin gives it current. not intrinsic,
value. The government stamp on tin
could not change it's value. 1t would
still be tin, worth so much pound. NO
more and 10 less.

SENATOR VOORHEES, has made so many
foolish utterances and wild prophecies
in past years TINT it would be endless
labor TO compile them. Here is an ex-
tract from a speech delivered BY him in
1864:
Let each eye which now beholds the sun
take its last look at scenes of plenty and
prosperity. Our fall from bounding eslth
and unlimited resources To pinched and
shrunken poverty and covering bank
ruptcy Is as certain under our present policy
as the fall of Lucifer the morning star,
froni heaven.

example by the calamityites.

SECRETARY CARLISLE has been send
ing letters to Republican collectors of
internal revenue calling for their resig-
nations "by direction of the President"
Accordingly, most of them will send let
ters resigning their Offices. This per-
s~rmance is a farce. Few of these
officers would resign if they could keep
the places they hold. Consequently,
they do not "resign" in the general
meaning of the word. Why not notify
those officers TO be prepared to turn
over the Offices they hold upon the ap-
pointment of their successors7 Why
not proceed to appoint their successors
and announce that John Smith has been
appointed collector of internal revenue
rice John Jones removed, instead of
John Jones resignedf Why not be
aboveboard and truthful in the matter7
1t is said that some internal revenue
collectors will not resign, preferring to
be removed, so that the truth may APP
pear.
