Pccu liarities of Congress.

The Commercial Gazette of Gin
c%innati has compiled an article on
the above topic. The youngest
senator is Wolcott of Denver, born
in 1913, a lawyer, a native Of Massa-
chusetts; the oldest, Morrill, of YER
mont, horn in 1910, the Nestor of
Congress, having served 80 years.
The rest of the senate is made up OF
81 lawyers, 4 capitalists, 3 journal
lists, z lumbermen, = manufacturers,
/ merchant, / railroad official, | mi
ner, | stock raiser, | car builder, |
doctor, 2 bankers, | planter, and =
quarrymen. The rest put themselves
down as "retired.' Twenty of the
senators served in the confederate ar
my during the war, and sixteen IN
the union army.

M EIHART,

Argus: The climax of infamy has
been reached by the administration
in the treatment of old soldiers. A
Portsmouth, Ohio, special, dated Jul
ly Both, says: "Secretary Hoke
Smith was hung in effigy by enrag-
ed citizens of Rome, "a little town of
Adams county, last night. a num-
Der of pensions have been suspended
there, creating much i'll feeling, but
the climax was reached when the
pension of j. l.. Reed, a veteran OF
the Eleventh Illinois cavalry, aged
63, was dropped. Reed served four
years and five months and his pen
sion was his sole support. When he
received the news Of the suspension
he became a raving maniac. Cltl-
zens, led by John Furnier, a demo
crat, hung Smith in etfigy in the
presence Of over 1000 people ire
spective of party affiliations" No
one CD jects to an honest and fair re
vision and enforcement of the pen
sion laws. But the present admin
istration takes every opportunity to
show its malignant hatred of the
Union soldiers. Who would have
thought that within a generation the
offspring and descendant of those
most active in their efforts to destroy
the government would have the
power to take away the support of a
Union veteran and send him to an a
sylum:

Bland-As nearly as could make
it out it was a plea for the single
gold standard because England main
tains it. If England would coin sill
yer probably this country would do
so. We seem to have lost the spirit
Of ITO.
Sen. Peffer-The banker will re-
gard it as perfection. The farmer
and workingman will see in it a fur
ther reduction of the products OF
their farm and their labor. 1t is the
first attack Of the money kingsi in the
final struggle for supremacy.

WHAT TT MEANS.

The free coinage OF silver means
much to our people.
/. 1t means that the holder OF sill
yer bullion could, by presenting the
same t o any authorized mint of the
United States, obtain therefor
standard silver dollars.
2. 1t means that silver mine own
ers, when unable to obtain money to
meet current expenses a pay debts
in silver bars which would be legal
tender for their full weight, less ex-
pressage to the mint.
3. 1t means that every silver camp
would be "a money center, and that
Wall street would no longer rule
our finances. That the silver camp
instead Of continuing a borrower
would become a lender. "a center OF
finance and a tower of strength tc
the government.
The true American certainly sees
but one side to this question, but il
begins to appear that the great pro.
ducing nation of the world has mort.
gagged itself to the Hebrews of Grear
So
Britain.
The Neihart herald. [volume] (Neihart, Mont.) 1890-1901, 1893-08-19

"There will be many scalps taken
by the people before the fight is
over. There are men here represent
ing free silver constituencies who are
panic stricken and ready to yield to
the clamor against silver. The peo-
pie are not SO affected; they look
upon the matter dispassionately and
when it is ended will ask their rep
resentatives what allied them. The
people do not consider tie attack
upon the Sherman law as sincere, for
it is to them "a question of the first
importance. They look upon it as a
fight between the gold men and BIZ
metallists and while they would not
be willing to see the present law re-
lating to coin go Internationally re-
pealed, what they want first of all is
the free coinage Of silver. That is
the main question" BLAND before
the free coinage caucus of represent
atives.

marked: "You can fool some of the

ginning to find it out.

THE MESSAGE.

The Presidents message is the
very embodiment of absurdity and
illicit reasoning. It's assumptions
and deductions bear about as much
relation to each other as exists be-
tween Grover Cleveland and the
King of Siam. He starts off with a
reference to the marvellous prosperi-
ty which our people enjoyed but a
few weeks ago,-a prosperity which
was handed down from a previous
administration. He then mentions a
few facts which no one disputes, viz;
hat individuals and corporations are
content to keep in hand money that
they are usually anxious to loan; that
values, supposed to be fixed are fast
becoming fictitious; and that loss and
failure have invaded every branch of
business.
He should also observe that his
excellent party attained to power
upon a pledge to the enactment Of
such laws as are calculated to reduce
the value of almost every commodity;
that monied men rather hold to their
cash than to invest it in the products
of labor at fair wages; that the IN
certain state of our tariff laws is at
least a factor in producing such re-
suits as the closing down Of factories.
the general distrust among investors
and the necessary increase OF idle
ness and consequent discomfort. A
wise President barely speaks of this:
calls it one of the least of the diff
c~ulties; and then sails off into a yer
bous harangue, pleading for the colo
standard, on the account of our sup
posed financial dependence upon En-
gland.
Mr.. Cleveland says: Il believe
these troubles are principally charge
able to congressional Legislation
touching the purchase and coinage
of silver by the general govern
ment." We believe this is a lie AM
that its author knows it to be such
It begins to appear that on accoun
of its evident Inconsistencies the off
cial document will have little to d
in calling any turn which may b
taken.

WHEN THE CHEERING
TILE Nrws IN NEW YORK.

New YORK, December lon being
informed by a represent ntatlye OF tho As
sociated Press OF the action OF the
Reichstag at Berlin to-day. In adopting
by vote Of l73 TO 1876 the CeptFfst-t 4
motion TO re-admit the Jesuits Into Ger.
many. Mgr. Farley, Pastor OF 81
Gabriel's Parish, was surprised and
vIsibly showed his pleasure.
Il knew" said he, "that this subject
was being strongly agltated In Ger
many, but this is really news. The
Roman Catholics in America, and espe-
cialy the Germans, will receive this
news with distinct qualification. l
need not say that IT will please tho
clergy OF the Catholic Church, and
above all the Jesuits, 10 hear OF the re-
admission Of their order into Germany
after the years Of expulsion from that
country.
This IS one Of the last acts OF justice
toward the Jesults In Germany, which
were begun when the present Emperor
aseended the throne. The prosecutions
OF the Jesuits were commenced 10 1870,
after the infalllbilIty OF the Pope bad

the Imprisonment OF Cardinal Ledo-
chowsky, one Of the ablest men Ia the
church and now Project OF the Propa-
ganda and very close TO the Pope In
power.
"SInce the beginning OF the reign OF
the present German Emperor the wrongs
of the Jesults have been gradually
riQhted through his more favorable
views Of the situation.
This subject Is undoubtedly one OF
the points OF policy over which En-
peror William and Bismarck quarrelled.

Almost Ruined by Fire Early Yesterday
Morning.


CHICAGO, December 1.-The Hay
market theatre at Halstead and Madi-
son streets caught fye this morning and
at o'clock the flames had gained such
headway that small hopes Of saving the
structure were entertained. The theatre
narrowly escaped destruction about
three years ago in the great West Side
fire which destroyed the SmithtoWn
market, dime museum and several
other buildings, entailing 3 loss OF
about 80, 900, 600. The theatre has been
under the control OF the man
agment OF the well known
down town Columbia theatre, with
VIII J. Davis as manager. The Hay
market has been considered one Of the
most handsome play houses In this
city. 1t received its fame because OF
itproximity to HsymarKet square, where
the great Anarchist riot took place.
The building was five stories high,
with frontage OF $50 feet on Madison
street. A large part Of the rear OF the
building was given up to the theatre
but the frontage along the street lines
WAS used for stores. Above them were
offices. The stores were badly damaged
by water, much OF the stocks being
ruined and the Office portion OF the
building is almost a total loss. The
loss on the building and contents Is
estimated at $50. 900. The foyer OF the
theatre is destroyed and the interior
drenched and smoked.
After the fire was extinguished the
total loss was estimated at SlO0 600,
$50, 900 Of which is on the building.
The loss is fully covered by insurance.
