A Revival Of Confidence.
rAtlanta constitutional

Our Republican contemporaries admit
hat, within the past few days, there has
een a revival of confidence in the COM
nercial and financial circles of our large
the re.-
After Mr.. e.. there was no reason for
the time of his matt the money market.
lican gold bugs and contfalon, ana at
dicted great financial disturbances 2uo-
outcome of the Democratic policy on the
tariff and money questions. They would
have been gratifed to see the country
thrown into a spasm of apprehension,
but their second sober thought has led
them to take different view of the sit
uation.
1t is now very well understood that, If
our gold has been going to Europe, it
has gone there to pay for the luxuries
purchased by our people, and this fact
simply shows that our well-to-do classes
have had plenty of surplus cash to spend.
When our gold goes abroad it is because
we have received its equivalent in some
other shape.
The prophets Of evil have reconsidered
their programme. They have come to
the conclusion that self-interest will cause
the Democratic party to do its level best
to promote the general prosperity Of the
republic, and they see that, under new
conditions of tariff and financial reform,
they will enjoy many advantages hereto
fore beyond their reach. The wiping out
of sectionalism with its force-blli
methods puts the world upon notice that
investments in the inviting fields OF en-
terprise just opening in the Southern
States will not be depressed or interfered
with by unfriendly legislation.
The capitalists of the country may be
hostile to revenue tariff, free coinage
and State banks, but they are men of
foresight and energy, and they know that
the policy of the new administration will
give new life to industry and commerce,
and turn immigration Southwark.
This is an era of good feeling and busi-
ness activity. Sectionalism and partisan
prejudices can no longer retard our pro-
gress, and the money kings of the East
will be among the first to adapt them
selves to our new policy. Seeing that
they cannot increase their wealth by con.
tracing the currency, they will expand
their investments and put every dollar
of their capital where it will develop and
build up, and yield profit. Naturally
there is revival of confidence. When a
people make business a bigger thing than
politics, they are on the road to pros
perity.

THURSDAY, MARCH 80, 1898.
An Appeal For Aid.

A big black cloud of debt hangs over
the SPACIOUS Tabernacle in Brooklyn.
where Rev. Dr.. 'Talmage speaks every
Sunday to thousands. If it be not speed
lily dispelled. this great preacher and
teacher must give up his labors IN
locality where he can do more good thar
any place else on earth The story OF
the financial .rouble al this church seems
"a be simple one. Itcas.e not the slight
est rejection upon the care, prudence
or foresight Of either Dr.. Talmage or MS
congregation. Several years ago large
church was built. The year following
it was found necessary to enlarge it at
almost the expense Of new church
Just as they were getting it paid for it
took fire and burned down. Then an
other large edifcs was constructed. But
lightning bolt set fire to it. and this
also was destroyed just as the debt upon
it was being wiped out. Then the pres
ent great structure was erected, which.
inclrding the enlargement on the first,
tically comprises four churches that
congregation has built within
Gears. During Dr.. Talmage's pas
, in Brooklyn his people have raised
.4s sum Of S1,04o,Ooo for religious pur-
poses. This, for congregation of which
the members are almost without excep-
tion IN poor or moderate circumstances
financially, is a remarkable example
of SELF sacrifice and ioerality. Nor are
they weary in this well doing. They say
they are willing to work day and night
to be r;d of this financial EN- barrassment
Twenty-Five thousand dollars of the debt
must be paid at once. or the noble instl-
iution will pass ont of the possession OF
the congregation. The present pecuniary-
distress is greater than they or any other
average church congregation where the
DOOR far outnumber the rich can carry.
VIII they get the needed assistance:
There should be no question about 1t.
1t need not come as work of charity or
of good will either. but rather from
sepse of obligation. DR.. Talmase is the
worlds preacher and the worlds bene-
factor. At the call of every spet;es OF
distress his heart and his hand. bis voice
and his pen. have responded & soon as
the cry reached his ears. When Charles
ton was stricken by an earthquake. he was
8 leader in the work of relief. " hen the
Johnstown food catastrophe occurred
his response in deeds and words was most
potent. When the cry of distress came
from the starving peasants in Russia. he
went 5000 miles to distribute bread. For
every local charity and every case Of in
dividual distress his ri~'s band has liter

90 To- ,le byways to
draw peo7Ee in. Nor do the masses go to
hear fine music or to see a gorgeous altar
or rich church decorations, for these are
very simple at the Tabernacle
They go to hear Talmage preach. And
his sermons are so luminous. SO fresh. SO
inexhaustible. SO Il of interest and
power, that they never tire of him. DR.
Talmage does not trouble his conSrega-
ton much about theological dogma. No
body car tell whether the Tabernacle pull
pit is Baptist, Methodist or Presbyterian.
His religious views are as broad as the
poles, as deep as human needs and as
high as heaven. He is no half hearted or
doubling preacher, but he handles the
Truth forcibly and fearlessly.
a movement has been started to help
Or. Talmage and his congregation. Per
haps many readers of this paper who
have had the rare pleasure of reading his
sermons viii be glad 70 contribute to the
success of this movement. The testi-
Hnonial is to be popular one. and dol
lars, dimes and pennies will be received
with equal gratitude. 1t is hoped that
large number of contributions may be
rendered by our readers, to whom DR.
Talmage's utterances have preved help

Rev. Dr.. Talmage, whose church in
Brooklyn is isfnancially embarrassed, was
the fourth brother to enter the ranks Of
Christian ministers. His first pastorate
was at Belleville, n. J. Subsequently
atSyracuse his preaching attracted great
attention. His removal to Philadelphia
increased vastly the numbe-- of his ad-
mirers, and MS ministry Of seven years
in the Quaker City was great success.
He went to Brooklyn in 1869 and soon
filed church which had been much too
large for the worshipers. The new Tab
ernacle will accommodate about 5000
persons, and it is filed at every service.
Contributions to relieve the church from
tie liability of foreclosed mortgage
may be sent to this Office, whence they
will be forwarded to Dr.. Talmage.

what are the reforms the people
most demand and will exact, as You see
them?'
Why, the undoing of almost all that
the Republican party has done during its
thirty years of power. But especially do
the masses look for tariff and financial
reform. These two are the Immediate
demands of the common people Of the
country. The taxing machinery of the
government must be so remodeled as to
impose the burdens of government not
upon the poorer and middle classes of
the country as now, but equally upon an
upon the millionaire as we'll as upon
the small farmer and the mechanic.
Upon this point all sound Democrats are
agreed"
THE FINANCIAL PROBLEM.
What, then, about the financial prob
lem?''
The other great reform demanded by
the American people is financial reform.
The present financial system was built
up by the moneyed classes-the creditor
classes-without regard to the interests
of the debtor classes and the toiiing mil
lions. The national banking system was
established in the interest of the money
lenders of the East It's and was intended
to be monopoly of most grinding sort.
Its effects upon the masses have been
most baneful."
''Then you think the Democratic party
should provide for their e1tinction9"
II do not object to the banks SO much,
but do to the monopolistic feature Of
the system. That should be destroyed.
The lC per cent tax on the issues of State
banks should be repealed and they should
be clothed with all the powers that the
national banks now have. All the wis
dom in this country is not in Congress.
The State Legislatures have, in the past,
enacted as safe banking laws as Congress
ever has. They can do it again
But that is statement that you will
need to make very plain to the people
who have been led to think otherwise. y
s'Wby, do you know that the people of
this country have lost more money in
the last twenty years by the failure of
national banks than they did in fifty
years by the failure of State banks? 1t
is true. And the speediest and most
effectual way to relief for the farmers of
the South and, indeed, for the whole
country, is to torehabilitate the State banks
and give them thepower to issue money
redeemable in coin.' This will give us
an elastic currency-a currency that will
STAY with is. 1t will cheaper the rate of
interest and stimulate enterprises as
nothing else can"
WHAT IS NEEDED.

COL. GAMBLER on THE SITUATION.
ATLANTA Constitution. March 24.l

LNN,'
Hon. Allen d. Gambler, ex-Congress-
man from the "Bloody Ninth and the
most famous Democrat from Northeast
Georgia, was in the city yesterday and
talked pleasantly and entertainingly with
reporter of The ConStitutic;'. knowing
te.le stalwart loyalty of the colonel to the
Democratic party and TO the best inter
ests of the people Of Georgia and the
South. the reporter asked him:
Colonel, were you not at Washington
to witness the Inauguration of the new
administrations"
Yes, was in Washington at the inau-
guration. 1t was glorious day for the
country when, for the first time in more
than thirty years, the Democracy got IN
position to legislate for the people-in
position to pass and repeal laws. The
day after the inauguration the myriads
of people in and around the capitol
seemed to breathe easie. than they did
the day before. All seemed to feel con-
fdent of change in the, near future for
the better in the business condition OF
the masses of our peoplk. The people
expect much at the hs6ds of our party
now that it is in POSITION to do some
thing. The responsibility upon us rs
fearful. but we car meet it and satisfy
the people and establish our party IN
power for many years by an honest,
course.
