more than necessary to run
the government. Had Dem
ocrats continued in power, it
is very probable that there
would have bee4 decrease
in the tax levy. But since
the Republican party regain
ed control of national affairs,
the surplus left in the treas
ury at the close of the Demo
cratic administration has de-
parted therefrom. -Four years
hence, in resuming control of
the government, the Demo-
Gratis were confronted with a
very different state of affairs
to that when they were sue
ceeded by Harrison and COM
pany. In the meantime, al
though the rate OF taxation
had been increased, the reve-
nue. was and is now made
quate to meet the government
expenses. The question as
to what use will be made of
the surplus revenue no longer
arises, but instead, where and
how can we procure a suffi-
cient amount of money to de-
fray expenses. The principle
cause of depression is because
of the protection granted the
manufacturersre ferred to by
Gov. Mckinley. Under the
fostering care of protection
combines and trusts have
sprung up like magic, and by
this means the people have
been compelled to pay prices
demanded, and the result is
the capitalists have added to
their millions by taking from
the poor even that which they
had. AS to the protection of
labor the strikes that occur
with such uniform frequency
by laborers employed III pro-
tected industries, because of
reduction of wages, is conclu-
sive evidence that the tariff
does not regulate wages. But
granting that protection ena-
bles those who labor in pro-
tected industries to derive
more for their labor than they
otherwise would do, such a
law would still be unjust, for
of the laborers of this country
only about 10 per cent. are
employed in manufacturing
establishments, whereas 80
per cent. would in that event
be taxed in order for 10 per
cent to be protected. There
will be a reformation of the
tariff Mr.. Mckinley to the
contrary Notwithstanding.

The plethoric state o. the
banks of the country are III
striking contrast with Their
recent condition. The very
banks that were compelled a
few months ago to issue clear
ing house certificates now
have greater surplus than
at any previous time. In
New York alone the reserve
fund of the banks agg egate
S70,S35, 176. There must be
some cause that has produced
sHch N wonderful change in
90 short . time. Instead of
there being a rush on banks
in order to withdraw deposits,
we find that money which
was checked out has again
been deposited. There is no
Immediate danger of a depre-
citation of our currency; the
stableness of the same is now
assured, hence the restoration
Of confidence. But some of
the ultra silverites claim that
the repeal of the Sherman law
has had a depressing effect on
commerce by increasing the
purchasing power of gold. If
the purchasing power of gold
has been increased, that Of
silver has also appreciated.
The gold and silver dollars
are interchangeable, one will
purchase no more in The mar
ket than the other. The VOL
ume of the currency, per cap
tia, is greater than it has ever
been, still it is asserted BY
some that the necessity for
more money has caused a de-
cline in prices. If ESQ, we are
at a loss to know what has
caused and now causes pork
TO command such fabulous
prices. If The price Of pro-
duets were greater when the
volume of the currency was
less than at present, why
should a further increase i'm
the volume of money increase
the price of commodities? As
it has failed to do so in the
past, there is no grounds for
believing that it would have
II different effect in the future.
The repeal of the Sherman
law has had the desired effect
in restoring confidence. But
we cannot reasonably hope to
enter upon prosperous era
until the masses are accorded |
, more equal show in the
yves of the law, with the erst-
While and present fostered
.lasses.

The record made by the railway
assessors who passed through Abilene
last evening is not a brilliant one. Ac-
cording to the State Journal the con-
ductor Of their SPECIAL train tells 1t on
the gang Of Pop patriots that they
would sit and play cards, scarcely look
ing out to view the track; and occa-
sionally when they came to a station,
one would say, Let's see, here is
where the company has round house,
isn't itp" mo" the conductor would
reply, "there is nothing here but an
ordinary station" 81 don't believe
any such thingl" the assessor" would
retort. "Just wait till we get out and
seel" And the conductor would be
compelled to hold the train until they
pottered around to search for what
was not there. This was sample OF
the whole trip,
