william and the Duke.

BERLIN, Aug. 25.-The succession Of
the duke of Edinburgh to the throne of
Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, instead of his
son, Prince Alfred, is commented upon
in this city. The views entertained
here were that an English prince with
Russian consort was an impossibility
as German ruler. Prior to the duke
of Edinburgh taking the oath of allie
glance to the constitution to-day he and
Emperor William had long and secret
conversation at the castle Of Roinharts
Brunn. Many telegraphic dispatches
have passed to-day between Roinharts
Brunn and Osborne house, Queen Vic

PETER ON FINANCES.
Tho Kansas Senator Gives His View of tn
Financial Trouble.

ThanCldi 1EOuDle.
WASHINGTON, Aug 25-The vice
president announced in the senate to-
day the appointment of the committee
on the commemoration of the Tooth an
niversary of the laying of the corner
stone of the capital as follows: Messrs.
Voorhees,, Sherman, Ransom, Chandler,
White, Squire and Martin.
The house joint resolution making
the act of May IA, 1890, as to townsites
applica Bile to the Cherokee outlet, was
reported back from the committee on
public lands with an amendment ze-
quiring the trustees to be appointed to
be residents of the territory of Ok
lahoma at the time Of their appoint
ment, and an effort was made by Mr..
Berry to have it passed, but objection
was made by Mr.. Manderson and the
bill was placed on the calendar.
Mr.. PETER then addressed the senate
on the financial question. He said that
the financial trouble has not been
caused by any want of confidence on
the part of the people, but by practical
treason on the part of a class which he
hoped would be relieved from the re-
oPOhoioiAity VI th0
people. Abiding to the suggestion
made by protectionists that fear as to
changes in the tariff had much to do
with the financial panic he asked what
fears clerks, farmers and workers had
that manufacturing men were in dam
ger from the present administration.
He insisted that now and for the last
half dozen years the failures of manu-
featuring establishments did not come
from any prospective tariff policy, but
from want of orders. The people had
not money to buy goods and orders
were slackened. His own constituents
were selling their wheat at 25 to 30
cents bushel, corn at no more
than it cost to produce it, horses
at one-fourth their value and cattle
at two-thirds their value. They
were unable to buy goods of the mer-
chants and the merchants did not order
goods That was the trouble. The
democratic party dared not to-day to
esta blish free trade. There was no
danger of free trade unless that fight
was forced on the people. If the farm
ers of the country had to compete with
pauper labor manufacturers could do it
and they would have to do it before the
fight ended. What was fair to the
farmer was fair to the manufacturer.

Money Maxims.

Few people remain idle when
there is money enough to pay them
for their labor.
Money makes the man go.
The means used by the money
power to deceive the people is the
democrat and republican parties.
When money is used in the en-
ployment of labor, values are pro-
duced.
Want does not exist long when
the people have money to buy that
which they want.
The most prosperous business
decade in this nation was 1861 to II.
There was nearly money enough to
conduct business on a cash basis.
That money was national greenbacks.
There was no gold in it. Gold money
eras are always eras of hard times.
When everybody is employed pro.
ducing the things that everybody
wants to use, all have money to pur-
chase the products and no surplus
accumulates. When idleness largely
prevails for want of money to pay
labor, the idle have no money to buy
with and surplus of unused things
accumulates, and badly Informed
people call this lover, production
The cause is scarcity of money.
The wealth of nation is the pros
perity of its producing classes and
not the money in the hands of its
millionaires Our Presidents and
statesmen mistake the latter for the
former, and all such should be sent
to Jericho till their boards be grown
They lack wisdom.
Society, or the people of a country
may be likened to great machine
all the time busy, all the time con-
suming; and money IS the motive
power, representing the steam which
drives an engine. If the steam is low
the engine runs sluggishly. and the
machinery produces but little. II
the money of country is insufficient
to energise the labor of the country
it acts sluggishly and its productive
powers languish. A full volume OF
steam sets every wheel in the ma
chine cumming, and full volume Of
money in country "gets hurry
on everybody and makes business
hum. See? We want that silver
we are making present of to the
English Jew spectators turned into
money. More steam Grover, more
steam. You had better cut loose
from the English gold ring Jews and
tie to the American working people
The former will betray you.

highest hopes of the plain people.
Wait till there is general election
throughout the state and the farmers

Personal Rights and Public
Wrongs.

AS the time rolls round for the
corporation elections the ''irrepres
sible conflict" shows its ruffled brow
and "Tax Payer enters his many
sided protest against public abuses
and waste of public. money. And
the question comes up: who is Justly
entitled to vote at these borough
elections, anyhow (? Well, who is?
That is easily answered. But who
should not be? is the unknown ouan
tity, as they say in algebra and in
the game of politics "Tax Payer"
evidently has a pretty well defined
opinion on the subject, but is little
modest about "speakin' out in
meetin'," entertaining q wholesome
fear of that great braggars and bully,
all out Of doors, universal suffrage
applied to men only. "Tax Payer
thinks that the tax payers of cor
poration only should do the voting
whichtakes moneyout Of their pockets
to improve the property, public and
private, of the town. The exercise
of the voting privilege in corporation
or borough elections does not ex-
tend to personal rights and the
liberty of the citizen, but is confined
strictly to the Improvement of prop
erty within the corporation limits
largely to the bettermcnt of public
property, the streets which are the
States property, held in trust for the
convenience of the public. Any
extra improvement made upon these
public thoroughfares by the town are
voluntary contributions bv the prop
erty owners. They are not com
PEELED by the State to expend any
money in the way of improvement Of
the highways of the town. The
county, as the States agent will dc
all such work III its good old way
The State does not compel the streets
to be lighted or a water supply to be
furnished. Such improvements are
all voluntary and paid for by 6
special tax on the property within
the borough limits. 1t is very plain
when considered from this point oil
view, and this is the common sense
point, that the tax payers of a cor
poration or togn, for town improve
ment purposes, alone bsVe the right
to vote away their own property aad
expend the money, thus voted, in
their own way for such domestic
