Democratic calamity crOakers
were finding new causes of alarm
every day.
But now that the Democratic
party is i'll power and the trouble
throughout the country is real
and not imaginary, these same
Democratic sheets are urging
Republicans to sink partisanship
and use every means possible to
restore public confidence. 1t
makes a great difference whose
OK is being gorcd, and is but
another of the many examples
which show the Inconsistency
and narrow partisanship of the
,,,a,Ohprc of thp DpmpCr1ti 10
party.
The Republican press of the
country is acting wisely during
these troublesome times. Too
broad and patriotic to magnify
the thousands of failures, it has
sought rather to pass them by
and direct the public to look tol
the better time coming. That
time can be FASTENED by Demo
Gratis being patriotic enough tc
remove doubt and diStrust BY
assuring the country that The
American system of protection
will not be disturbed.

A number Of Colorado Republi
cans are quoted as advocating a
new political party which shall
have as its platform the free and
unlimited coinage of silver. The
party proposes to favor free
trade as a retaliatory measure
on Eastern Republicans for their
attitude toward silver. Well
what good will they accomplish
for themselves or for silver by
such a course? Why not rccog.
nize the plain fact that free sill
yer coinage at a 16 to ratio
is dead-dead as the Pharaohs-
and take the inevitable step il

The stringency of money mat
tiers just at present would be very
much relieved if those who owe
small bills would pay them, and
pay the larger ones if possible
But the paying of small ones,
even, would make a great differ
ence in the business of the coun-
try, and its favorable effects
would be noticeable at home.
Many think that because money
is "close" they should hoard their
money, so that they may have
means to meet any little expen.
ses they may incur in the future
This boarding idea is n wrong
one, especially at this time, and
everyone who has a cent to
spare, and is owing accounts,
should liquidate them immedi-
ately and thus help those who
have helped them. THERE'S plenty
of money in the country to do
business, it is out of circulation
Banks dare not loan what they
have for fear deposits may be
called for at any time and find
them unprepared; and their
boarding and boarding by pri.
vate individuals for want of con
fidence is what makes the so.
called hard times. In view oil
these things it is almost impera
tive that the small creditors put
in circulation what they can by
paying what they owe. Paying
a bill is only giving a person the
use of what belongs to him. II
is his money not yours and h,
should have it.

THE MANTLE CASE.

by the governor of that state,
after the legislature of Montana

denied him his seat-nOt on par
tisan grounds, but taking the
position that the governor of a
state can only appoint a Senator

the time the legislature is not in
session. When that body has
met regularly, or has been con,
