central and eastern stntes. In addition
to this, almost every railroad in tho
United States is mortgaged for over
half its value, tho mortgage is owned in
Europe as n rule, and the stock in this
country. When We go over to a gold
basis, the world will go there also, and
prices will shrink one half for the rea-

there arc gold dollars. Tho production
Of silver is greater than gold aud tie

silver mining stops, the production of

GEN. WEAVER is no better informed
than republican orators and editors.
But he is more honest. In a recent
speech before the national encampment
of the Farmers alliance at Mount
Gretna, Pa, he said: "The situation of
to-day was not caused by the election OF
a democratic administration. That ad-
ministration is still enforcing republican
laws and Interpreting laws the same as
did Harrison. Such a curse could not
be brought upon tho country by a mere
change of Administrations

TNE '.BANKERS,' PANIC"

ave are going to make the west pay
up this summer"
"But why should you press your west
ern creditors this summer??'
"Well We think it would mako you ;
little more thoughtful about currency
matters and drive you from your foolish
ideas about silver"
The above dialogue is said by the
Chicago Inter Ocean to have actually
taken place between a western business
man and an eastern banker early last
winter. 1t is cited by our esteemed
Chicago contemporary in support Of the
tr%uthfulness Of Col. r. G. Ingersoll's
declaration that this is a "bankors'
panic" inaugurated and carried out by
the bankers Of New York, Philadelphia
and Boston, having for its prime object
the demonstration Of the fact that the
business of tho country is entirely de-
pendent upon the said banks. A further
object was to force the government to
issue bonds, payable in gold and bearing
interest, which the banks would place to
their own advantage. The chief object
OF the conspiracy, however. was to kill
silver and forestnll any legislation in
favor of hat metal at the coming ses-
sion of congress.
The present condition of the New
York banks shows how their own con-
spiracy has worked their own ruin.
They are practically insolvent, being
compelled to resort to such devices as
clearing house certificates, certified
checks, bills Of exchange, and all other
kinds OF commercial paper when their
customers want money. Only the gem
erai spirit OF forbearance and patience
that has been so remarkably displayed
by the customers Of those eastern banks
has enabled them to keep open doors.
The situation is not without it's profit
able lesson. The money power of the
east, conferred in and directed through
the banks Of New York, must by this
time be convinced that an assault on tho
legitimate business of the country will
inevitably result in disaster to itself and
that its interests will be furthered as it
works in harmony with the rest of the
country. Arrogantly arrayed against
the toiling millions of our country, the
few representatives Of the plutocrats are
powerless to effect selfish legislation.
Should the conspiracy of eastern bank
ers succeed in this congress in thwartine
legislation favorable to silver, the money
OF the people, the time will come, and
that soon, when the will of the people
will be- executed by representatives
chosen for that purpose, and that will
might include protection to self and re-
venge on oppressors.
A "bankers' panic" cannot last long,
in the nature Of things, and already the
signs of returning prosperity are seen
w~hereverthe blight of the conspiracy has
fallen. The distrust created by the New
York banks is rapidly disappearing,
money is coming from it's hiding places
and again appearing in the channels of
trade, and though it has wrough, dire
havoc already the lessons that have been
learned by those who are responsible for
it will prevent n recurrence OF tho
"bankers' panic" of 1893.

THE QUEEN SPEAKS.
Liliuokalani Makes Her First
Plea for Hawaii.
The Hawaiians, She Saws, Detest
the Annexation Idea.

A lengthy statement by Liliuokalani the
deposed Queen OF Hawaii, has just been
made public which is the first statement
which the exQueen has made for publica-
ton since the overthrow OF the monarchy
on the islands She states at the outset:
II had resolved to maintain absolute
silence throughout the negotiations, believ-
ing that the question would be settled On its
political merits alone, out am forcad from
my retreat by the ISLANDERS and cruel calum-
mics uttered against my person and charac-
ter by those who are believ ed on account of
their diplomatic position, nd who know
better than they speak. do not mean to re-
flute their utterances. | am Queen"
The ex-Queen then refers to her rec4nt at
tempt to promulgate a new constitution and
reviews number of facts which, she claims
LED her to take this step. Among other
things she says:
tour of the islands. Nothing could be
more affecting than the loyalty of my
people. but from every side petitions
kept pouring in imploring me to
give new constitution. They contained
thousands of signatures, the names Of those
from all classes who felt that by the ex-
jsting constitution the natives were de-
prived Of their just and inalienable
rights. I would not deprive one white
man of one legitimate right, but under
ILLS any WHITE
man without interest or intention of resi-
dence IS placed as voter over the heads of
thousands of my subjects, to whom God has
given these islands and no other home. Be-
sides, Hawaii is dear tonthe Hawaiian as
America is dear to its peopS.'
Lilioukalani next refers to United States
Minister Stevens as follows: 1.-The position
taken by the present American Minister
has been constantly unfriendly and quar-
relsome. The address he delivered to
me on my accession would lead me
to suppose that he considered an Ameri-
can protectorate established at that dav. It
was lecture and not an expression of sea-
sonable sentiment. did think it most in
considerate speech. Not one of the other
representatives chose my coronation day as
an occasion fer threats and penalties.
'At the time certain men were being
prosecuted for rebellion and treason Mr.
Stevens delivered his Decoration Day
speech. He ridiculed the political trials.
He drew comparisons most unfavorable
to Hawaii; he sneered at royalty, speaking
OF monarch-cursed countries, and the
question seriously presented itself to the
minds Of many people if this speech did not
constitute glaring infraction of the duties
and courtesy pertaining to the representa-
tive of foreign power"
The ex-Queen closes her statement as fol-
lows: Tine Queen of Hawaii raises her
solemn note OF protest. Hawaiians deteSt
the very thought of annexation. 1t is not
as yet to the United States,
but it is the overwhelming grief with which
our native eyes shall behold any flag
surrounding our fair shores, except that
one which is associated indelibly with the
of our glorious past-glorious not
in might and battle, but in the noble efforts
robe OF enlightenment, religion and com
merce."

How He Knew.

Before the fish commissioners OF
California decided to stock the
streams Of the State with that much
despised but powerful fish, the Ger
man carp, they we're greatly con-
cerned as to whether it would live in
certain waters. The question was
debated at several meetings, and was
finally submitted to Professor Il
an eminent authority.
Samples Of the water were obtained
and turned over to the professor, who
in short time submitted favorable
report, and the carp were accordingly
turned loose in the rivers.
The commissioners were greatly i'm
pressed by the professors knowledge.
but one Of them had question to ask.
"HOw could you be sure that carp
would live in the water submitted to
your" he inquired.
why" answered the professor,
with an amused look, II bought a
carp for ten cents and put it into the
water. 1t lived"

Inc annoying rreckIe.

FreckIes are apt to be the torment
of young people, and especially Of
very fair blondes with red or reddish
hair, writes Ella ROdman Church in
one Of ''Three Pretty Girl Papers, {"
in the Ladies' Home Journal. APP
pIicatiOns of all manner of blistering
remedies are constantly recommended
and used, such active poisOns as cor
rOSive Sublimatc and acetate of lead
figuring largely IN them; and the OBJ
jeCt to be obtained is nothing less
than the removal of the outer skin,
freckles and all. Half an ounce each
Of Cologne water, brandy, lemon juice,
and alum, boiled together, produces
the same result, more slowly and less
painfully; but when the skin forms
again, and is exposed to the same IN
fluences, the freckles reappear. Tan
is even worse than freckles. as this is
a dark layer over the entire surface,
whereas the former do leave glimpses
of a fair skin. Where it is perma-
nently esta bllshed. a covering of
linen or ChamOis cut to fit the face
and neck, wet with cold water, if
used night, will gradually wear away
the tan.

Hawaiian Treaty Withdrawn.

President Cleveland sent to the Senate a
message withdrawing the Hawaiian treaty
which has been pending in the Senate.
The message was short and to the point,
to transmit to the Executive the proposed
treaty with Hawaii. The message was re-
ceived without comment on the floor of the
Senate.
Republican Senators regarded this action
of the President as in line with the course
pursued by Mr.. Cleveland in withdrawing
the Nicaraguan treaty sent to the Senate by
Mr.. Arthur in the closing days of his ad-
ministration.
Democratic Senators looked upon the act
from two-fold point Of view, some taking
the ground that it showed Mr.. Cleveland to
be against annexation or American inter-
ference. Others held that he would send in
another treaty more to his liking.
1t was understood that the reason for the
withdrawal of the treaty by President Cleve-
land was because he was opposed to the
treaty in its present form. Whether or not
he would favor the making of another treaty,
and whether it would be an annexation
treaty or not, could not be said on authority,
but person who had talked with the Presi-
dent on the subject said that another treaty
would be made.
1t was estimated that the President would
suggest either by message or personally to
Senators. that committee be appointed to
visit the Hawaiian Islands this year. during
the interval between the adjournment of the
special session of the Senate and the recon-
vention of the next Congress
President Cleveland, heretofore, has been
quite solicitous on this point, and made in
Quiries as to whether or not the resolution
providing for Suc4 a commission had gone
through. He had been apparently under
the impression that it had been adopted.
He learned that it had not been. but that
the Senate had authority alone to provide
for such a commission, probably to consist
of Senators, and that the contingent fund
of the Senate could be drawn on for this
purpose.
