Cost of Columbus, Expedition.

The cost of discovering America
by Columbus, says Prof. Ruge, in the
Glo5us, was l, 100000 maravedis, or
about $7,296 of our money. The
money of Queen Isabella, of course,
had higher purchasing power than
the dollar of to-day. Of the sum
named, Columbus received an annual
salary of $500, and the two captains
each 1892 per year. Each sailor, in
addition to his subsistence, received
$2.45 per month, or one ducat.

During last year no less sum
than 936,487 was subscribed in the
country by infatuated enthusiasts
towards the Utopian object of con-
verting the Jews to Christianity.
The annual report states that twelve
converted" Jews were confirmed
during the year, of whom, however,
only five were adults. 1t appears,
therefore, that it costs about 93,040
to convert each Jew, but this is far
too low an estimate, inasmuch as

A NEW FISH TALE.

Captain George W. Lloyd, of New
Rochelle, New York, kindly sent us
last week two specimens of a new
pen-staf which he has invented.
1t seems that up in the regions
where Captain Lloyd dwells they
have fish called the Horse-foot,
which is much sought after by cpl
cures as being toothsome to volup-
tuous degree.
One day it occurred to Captain
Lloyd that the tail of the fish would
make glorious pen-staff for reform
editors.
For, mark you, Captain Lloyd is a
reformer till you can't hold any more
of it. You might seine the political
waters of Europe, Asia and Oceanica,
and you would never find a more
earnest, honest, indefatigable and
irresistible reformer than Captain
Lloyd.
Not only has he sounded all the
depths of prose in his efforts to find
medicine for moss backism, but he
climbs the pinnacle of poesy, and be-
showers all the regions round about
with downpourings of resolute and
unfinching rhymes.
But, as I was saying, it one day
struck the fancy of Captain Lloyd
that the tail of the Horse-foot fish
would make the best pen-staff that
a reform editor ever skinned a plu-
tocrat with.
So the Captain chops off about
eight inches of the tail, fits copper
thimble and wooden peg into the
butt-end of his tail cut, and sends it
forth on its mission.
AS [ remarked, he sent me two
specimens-one for my wife and one
for me. am now writing with the
one he designated as mine. The one
he selected for Mrs. W. got broke in
coming. We shall, therefore, treat it
on the fish basis, and shall make a
pot of soup out of it.
A pen-statf which can, at a pinch,
be converted into a pot of soup, is
bound to be extremely popular with
reform editors. Captain Lloyd has
deserved well of the Press, and we
shall not forget him.
I tell you right now that a reform
editors nerve is infinitely braced
when he feels that if his editorials
fail to bring him support, he can at
any moment, whirl in and eat his
pen.
Every time catch hold of this
fish tail and begin to write I fee
holder, more confident than 1 ever
did in my life.
The only thing that bothers me is
the fact that [ spend SO much time
thinking about the balance of the

being alive to the situation, and get
ting in touch with each other, so as
to ''unhorse the Bosses" OF course
the Peoples Party is condemned,
and the people who expect anything
from it are considered, by Macune, as
"wicked."
A "non-partisan" paper, of the
Macune stripe, never fails to con-
denim that party which adopted the
Alliance principles; nor does it ever
fail to- advocate the two parties
which condemn the Alliance prin-
clples.
That's one of the reasons why the
non-partisan bastard is such pretty
boy.
Macune did not state hoeo the peo-
pie were to get together and cum
horse the Bosses"
Forgot it, l guess.
The only kind of writing he can
do is of that class which looks deep,
because you can't see the bottom
Upon that line of reasoning South
Georgia pond, two miles square and
two inches deep, becomes a rival to
the lakes.
Now consider the picture. Ken
ney runs the Economist, the Ali
ance paper; Kenny runs the Anaeri-
can Industries, the Democratic pa
per. The one voices the sentiment
of the farmers, the other of Wall
street. The one brings the lambs
forward, the other shears them.
The one calls up the game, the
other bags it. The one bats the
fish, the other catches 'em.
The Economist lane leads into
the Wall street fold.
Macune's call for converts invites
the mourner forward to receive the
blessings of Grover Cleveland.
The partisan apostle opens
the door of the Economist church,
and the startled candidate for hap
piness finds himself in the fragrant
embrace of the National Democratic
Committee.
Both papers managed by the same
men, both from the same office, both
by the same methods, both with the
same designs. The Democrats
openly control the one, and secretly
control the other. The facts are SO
plain, the screen SO clumsily adjusted
that we wonder at Macune's cheek
in supposing he can thus deceive
and defraud the farmer vote.
This same man Macune sent US a
marked copy Of the Economist the
other day, virtually daring us to
repeat our opinion of HIM; and
threatening to make us "put up or
shut up"
Go to thou scurvy villain

Note-At the above named places
I hope to meet those who are inter
ested, from the standpoint of patri-
otism, in the great cause of good
government.
The discussion will be confined
almost exclusively to questions of
Finance, Transportation and Taxa
ton. Partisan politics, save from
those standpoints, will not be treated
at all. My purpose is to have a
calm, dispassionate examination of
our present methods of legislation
and administration as compared
with the principles of Jefferson and
as compared with the constitution
itself.
1t yilI be my aim to SO treat these
questions that no Democrat present
will have cause to say that his feel
ings or his convictions are treated
with disrespect.
Where we must continue to diff
fer, it is my wish that we may do SO
with mutual goodwill and mutual
forbearance.
To avoid as far as possible all dis
agreeable incidents and all excessive
display of partisan zeal, I will de-
cline to enter into ''Debates" with
anyone whomsoeyer.

SPECIAL NorIcE.-The policy adop-
ted by President Ellington is to
keep the Alliance meetings separate
from Peoples Party Rallies.
I think this is wise, and it is my
purpose to conform.
Therefore, I put my friends on
notice that my meetings are strictly
Peoples Party Rallies. They are
purely political, and they are my in
dividual appointments.
Local committees are requested
not to make arrangements which may
interfere with my control of the time.
At each of the allowed named
places 1 expect to be on the stand by
10 o'clock, railroad time, and will
commence my address at once.
If this arrangement conflicts with
the preference of the local commit
tee at any OF the above appointments
they will please notify me and [ will
make another date, at which time we
can have Peoples Party Meeting,
pure and simple.
To mix Alliance business meetings
with Peoples Party political meet
ings, would necessarily cause EN-
barrassment.
The Alliance is growing and de-
serves to grow. The Peoples Party
is growing and deserves to grow
And each can best grow by having
it's meetings separately.

Both were mailed at the same
place, at the same hour, and directed
by the same hand, as the writing
shows.
Opening these two envelopes, we
find that the Economist missive
consists of a circular letter, stating
that ''Horace Kenney" is the Secre-
tary and Treasurer; that "we send
you sample copy of the Economist,
the official organ of the National
Farmers Alliance" ETC., etc. cit is
not partisan paper, but adheres
strictly to the doctrines as enunciated
by the Farmers Alliance" Sub
scriptions are then solicited upon that
basis.
Opening the other envelope we
find in a circular letter of precisely
the same size and color, but purport-
ing to come from "Fifth Avenue,
New York"
We find that "Horace Kenney" is
the Treasurer of the paper called
An2erican Industries" published at
ia Fifth Avenue, New York"
owe send you sample copy of
the -Americon Industries" etc
"Believing that the platform as
enumerated by the Democratic Party
afforded the best security for the
people this journal supported the
Democratic Party during the last
campaign, and still supports it, etc.
owe call your attention especially
to the endorsements from the Demo-
cratic politicians and labor men,"
Subscriptions are then solicited in
he usual way with this very singular
difference.
Mr.. Kenney allows only % per
cent commissions on the Economist,
but offers so per cent commissions
on the -An7erjca2 Industries. In
other words, he is using the Ecomo,
mast merely as ''pilot to extend the
circulation of the avowedly Demo-
cratic journal.
Turning to the endorsements
from Democratic politicians and la
Dor men," we find the "American
Industries" to be high up in favor
with such politicians as John G.
Carlisle, Grover Cleveland and the
Democratic National Committee
and, also, very popular with such
labor men as Hon. J. j. Richardson,
of Tennessee, who bitterly opposed
the Car Coupler Bill and with Hon.
Benton Mcmillan, who refused to
allow debate on the Sub Treasury
Bill.
Examining the contents of this
particular number of the 1Anerica2a
Industries, we find an extract from
It's bastard brother, the Economist.
In view of the fact that Macune's
paper is now strictly non-partisan
we were quite prepared to find the
first sentence of the extract to read
this way:
"There is absolutely no hope of any
reform in the laws and usages of this
government for the next two years
ercept achat may be obtained from
the Democratic party, and very little
chance of any from any other source
for four years"
