TIE last treasury statement
shows that the total circulation of
the country on the LIST of August
this year was but $40, 49, 92 more
than it was on the LIST of last Au-
gust. Allowing that the increase
in the population Of the country
has been but 100000, which is
considerably too low, the increase
IN the circulation has not been
half enough to keep up the per
capital circulation, if the figures of
the treasury officials as to the per
capita circulation are correct. The
increase in the circulation has not
been enough to give a per capita
circulation of more than $40 to the
million inhabitants which this
country has in excess of the num-
Der it had a year ago, and the
Sherman law was in operation dur
ing all of this time. Had it not
been for the operation Of the Sher-
man law there would have been
a shrinkage of many millions in
the total circulation of the country.
With our rapidly increasing
population it Is necessary hat we
should have a large annual increase
in the circulation and the only way
to safely increase the circulation
as rapidly as is desired is to open
the minis to the free coinage of
silver.

The monometallist are not so
confident Of the repeal Of the Sher-
man law as they we've just before
the assembling Of the special ses-
sion Of congress. The sentiment
in favor Of tho free and unlimited
coinage Of silver is growing so rap
idly in the east that it it astonish-
ing the gold bugs. There is a
possibility that a free coinage bill
will be passed at this session, but
it is more probable that the time
of this session will be taken up
with minor Legislation to relieve,
in a measure, the financial situation
and that the passage of a free coin
age bill will be left until the regu-
lar session. The bill will be OF
greater Importance to the country
than any bill which has been pass
ed for years and many Of the mem
bers Of both houses are in favor of
taking plenty of time for delibera-
ton before taking final action on
the bill. There is no longer any
room for serious doubt but that a
bill for the free coinage of silver
will be passed by the present con-
gress, and it is not probable that
the passage Of such a bill will be
delayed much beyond the holidays.
The situation is being viewed with
alarm by the European powers and
the most of them are willing to fol-
low the example Of the United
States in restoring silver to its
proper place as a money metal.

THE democrats Of the state of
Ohio have shown that they have
the courage of their convictions.
They have nominated Lawrence Il.
Neal for governor and are going in
to win against great odds. Ohio is
considered as a reliably repub-
lican state,sbut the democrats have
put up a man who has pronounced
views on the silver and tariff ques-
tions. Neal is one of the strong
est advocates of the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver in the
country, while Mckinley is an I'M
compromising monometallist. Nc
Kinley believes in a high p%rotec-
tive tariff, while Neal holds OPP
posite views. If Neal should be
elected it would be a most pro-
nounced victory for silver. This
is the first time that the two poll
teal parties have drawn the line
on the silver question in any Of
the states east of the Mississippi
river and the outcome of the con-
test will be watched with a great
deal Of interest by the advocates
of free silver. It is a fight against
an average republican majority of
more than 10000 and ifa victory is
won there can be no doubt as TO its
cause.

BY the passage of a free coinage
bill the democratic party could
secure such a hold on this country
that it would be impossible to wrest
the government from its hands dur
ing the next twenty years. Let the
party stand firmly by the princi-
pies laid down in the Chicago plat
form, on which its candidates were
elected by such an overwhelming
majority. If the party enforces the
pledges in that platform the PEG.
pie of the country will be satisfied.
1t can honestly do nothing else.

THE smelling companies have
commenced the purchase of ores
again which shows that the own
ers of these plants have sufficient
confidence that congress viii pass
some bill which will be of benefit
to the silver interests to invest
their money in ores. Six weeks
ago silver ore could not be sold to
the big smelling companies at any
price. 1t begins to look as though
the clouds were beginning to roll
away and that the silver miners Of
the west viii have an inning be-
fore long.

THE big newspapers which
found 40 difficulty in figuring out
a majority in the senate in favor
of the unconditional repeal of the
Sherman law three weeks ago are
wondering what has happened.
One by one the senators they had
counted on as safe for repeal are
declaring themselves in favor OF
free coinage. The Sherman law
will not be repealed until the adj
yocates of free coinage are certain
of the passage of a free coinage
bill.

IT appears that the Rothschilds
are taking a hand in the direction
of the fight against silver in con-
gress this session. Our revolu-
tionary forefathers refused to sub
mt to the political domination Of
England, but it seems that the
people of this country have lost
much Of the spirit of independ-
ence that the colonists possessed
at the time of the wal for the in.
dependence Of the United States
1t is possible that this congress
will have the courage to declare
this country financially independ-
ent Of England.

THE gold bugs have given up
the idea that they have a majority
in congress and are now falling
back on the assertion that Cleve-
land will veto any kind of a free
coinage bill but they will find that
if a free coinage bill is passed and
submitted to the President he will
sign it. President Cleveland sees
that the masses of the people want
free coinage and he is not going
to veto a bill providing for it.

THE courts will be called upon

The manufacturing industries
of the country are paralyzed on
account Of The sudden falling off
in the demand for manufactured
goods. This falling off cannot be
attributed to a fear Of a reduction
in the tariff, but because there is
a falling off in the demand for
manufactured goods and this fall
ing off has been caused by the
falling price Of silver which has
directly and indirectly thrown
more than a million men out OF
employment.

The gold bugs, being unable to
answer the arguments of the adj
vocates Of the free coinage of sill
yer, are now saying That the ques-

ment always says. When he can't
say anything more he refuses to

another mares nest. It has found
out that the County commission
ers and their bondsmen and the
treasurer and his bondsmen will
have to pay the $1,000 which has
been asked for by Sheriff Laird in
settlement of his account, for the
reason that the commissioners
put back $1,000 into the interest
fund from which it had been TAX
en-. This discovery will turn out
just the same as the discovery
by the Headlight some time since
that there was a case pending in

HISTORY OF a WATCH.
How airs. =. 4. r. Anderson Recovets II
After Five Years.

One ~ the most novel cases in which q
very handsome gold watch was recovered
after having been lost for more than five
years was concluded n dav or two ago by
Mr.. James ID. Prentiss. OF the Richmond
National Detective Agency.
The time-p piece was purchased by the
late General Joseph Il. Anderson in Genoa.
ltalv Ia 1885, while no was abroad and was
presented upon his return home 10 his
daughter-in-law, Mrs. John +. L. Ander-
son, as "A S0urfpir of the Generals trip.
Three years later a donkey party" was
given at the home OF Mrs. Anderson and
the little friends OF the family came III
from all parts OF the city. Nearly oil of
the juveniles were accompanied by their
nurses, and the morning after the Jice it
was discovered that the much-prized time
piece was gone.
Detective Jack Wren, who was living
then. Was put upon the case. but never
could trace the golden ticker" He,
however, thought it had been appropriated
by negro servant Of the AndcrsOns, and
this party was discharged.
Years passed Dy and nothing was heard
Of the watch until about week ago. when
Mr.. Prcutlss was detained by Nr. Anderson
10 work the case. The detective found
the timc-pieco IL the possession or a wo-
man named Annie James alas Jackson,
who had for some time been employed IN
the family OF q citizen on Floyd avenue.
She was az the Anderson donkey party,
bat was al that time IN the service Ot an
other family. When the woman was asked
10 produce the watch description of II
was gwen, and she went away and brought
back an entirely different timc-piece.
She was tod that she would have 60 pro-
ducc the property called for. She then got
the other watch and IT wa given 10 Mr.
Prcntiss. No arrest was made, 1t not be-
DELIGHTED At the recovery Of her long-lost
property. The woman claimed that the
tIme-piece was given to her eight years
ago bY a man named Holmes IN Balti-
more. ANNE wos dismissed from hen
position on Monday and Is supposed to be
still IN the CITY
