Col. Pat Donan, the noted news
paper man and lecturer, has ex-
pressed his opinion of the situation,
witch is both dramatic and interest
ing. The article is too long for pub
location in full, but here are few Of
the closing paragraphs:
"All the silver we could produce in
the next quarter Of . century would
be beggars' pennies and pewter nick
els beside our appalling needs.
We have At least ten billions Of
dollars Of national, state, county, mu-
nicipsl, corporation and individual
bonds. Think Of it. Ten thousand
million dollars Of bonded debt! All
nations are our creditors. They want
money to pay them.
Meantime our reckless homo ex-
penditures go on, as 10 the maddest.
merriest imitation days. We are
spending billion a year for govern
ment, such as it is.
Hear those figures again: One
billion a year for national misrule
alone. A thousand millions of dol
lars year! 1t is more than any gov
ernment. more than al governments
are worth.
We have done all business for thir-
ty years on the widest credit basis
and we are now face to face with
such an aggregation Of debts as nc
nation on earth ever had to meet be-
fore. This is the situation and I
bowling hell of one it is.
Let Cleveland and his Capital Hill
menagerie of alleged statesmen pirate
as they may, the United States and
its people must tumble from imitation
to hard-pan; from credit to cash
and many tumbler will be broken
The inevitable has come. That is all
We could no more escape it than w
could death, or the day of judgment
The great want of the country j.
money to pay debts and meet obliga
tions. We need hundreds of millions
of dollars more than we have. And
our financial cranks tell US that thii
direful, paralyzing lack of money il
to be relieved by destroying a larg.
portion of what we already have
The despair and death dealing scarcity
of monay is to be remedied by making
it scarcer still! The man who says i
or believes it, be he goldbug presi
dent, cheap-john Congressman, met
ropolitsn editor, rural dirt digger o
statesmaniacal dime museum freak, il
a fool beyond all reach of reason o
hope of redemption"

Mr.. Cleveland has illegally and in
solently usurped the right to susf end
the laws of Congress according to his
personal pleasure. He has used the
power of patronage to impose his
will upon Congress, and done it SO
openly that the members freely ad-
NIT that by opposing his wishes they
sacrifice their places at what Repre-
sentative Geary aptly calls the "Fed-
eral pie counter" San Francisco
Examiner.

SENATOR DUsols OF IDAHO.
Idaho Falls Register.

OF Idaho should feel prond Of their
representatives in Congress when they
are doing noble work for the State
and the people they represent. But
when any of them becomes q leader
in such a body Of men as compose the
United States Senate, it is surely
someone Of merit and causes us to
realize that we made no mistake in
sending him there. While Idaho has
vast domains there are many cities
that contain twice the population Of
the entire State. It is something
quite unusual for Senators Of New
States to become leaders and attract
the attention throughout the nation
that our Senators, Dubois and Sboup,
have. When leading papers like the
New York Herald, Sun and Chicago
Inter-Ocean make favorable com.
ment upon their work, the Register
takes great pleasure in reproducing
these articles. Hence the following
which we take from the Inter Ocean: !:
"Fred" Dubois, as everybody calls
him, including himself, the young
Idaho Senator who has been put for
ward by Teller, the silverite manager,
to debate with Voorhees, was AZ years
old last May, writes the Washington
correspondent of the Philadelphia
Record. He looks ten years younger.
He is rather handsome fellow, of
medium height, good figure, and with
q pleasant face, which is, however,
full of determination. He is a de-
cided brunette, with hair and mus
tache as black and thick as Logan's 8
and dark, bright eyes. He dresses in
light-colored summer clothes these
days and, like most of the other young
Senators, prefers at all times sack
coats to the Senatorial longtails.
When Senator Dubois gets up to
speak he stands close up to his desk
and holds onto it until he gets we'll
started, although he shows no other
sign of nervousness. His voice is
full, strong and rather musical. He
has good deal of wit, as we'll as a
keen sense of humor, and knows how
to apply sarcasm so as to make it
hurt. He has the wild western fear
lessness of everybody and everything,
with the accompanying irreverence
for many persons and many things.
Nevertheless, he has not been as forth
putting as some other young men IN
the Senate for he has waited two
years before taking any conspicuous
part in general debate.
Ex-Speaker Reed thinks Senator
Dubois one of the brightest young
men in public life, and predicts a
great future for him. When Reed
was in the Senate chamber the other
day he happened to hear one of the
replies Dubois made to VOORHEES,, and
was so delighted with it that he liter
ally patted him on the back, as though
he had been his son. Dubois, Of
course, returns Reeds liking with in
terest, and will no doubt bring the
Idaho delegation to the next Repub-
lican national convention for the ex.
Speaker. Dubois is an Illinois mar
and Yale graduate of the class oi
'72, but he is a business man, not g
lawyer. He has been in Idaho since
1880. was United States Marsha
from 1882 to 1886, and served foul
years in Congress as a Delegate be-
fore he was elected as one of the frst
United States Senators from Idaho
He is a bachelor of convivial taste.
and habits, but keeps up his reading
nevertheless.

"What we want is confidence, not

while only one class of confidence

Harper's Weekly belongs. People

A CORRESPONDENT writes to the
London Financial News advocating
extended efforts in trying to turn
all possible light on the currency
question before the people, so that
public opinion may intelligently Judge
and declare itself on the Gladstone
government in regard to the curren-
cy of India, as we'll as the proposed
policy of Mr.. Cleveland and the
monometalists. Then he proceeds as
follows:
"Are they honest? Are they
wise? For it is fact that these acts
combined amount to nothing less
than a declaration of monetary war
by all the creditors of the world
against all the debtors of the world.
This silver question is an intensely
practical matter, personal to every
one who has financial obligations
outstanding, for or against; and who
of US has not? Mr.. Cleveland, Sir
William Harcourt, Prince Bismarck,
Lord Lansdowne, General (Senator)
Sherman, and the others are but cats
paws In this great monetary cam
paign; the minds who personify the
creditor interest of the world are the
authors of those political acts of cur
rency legislatior-world spoliations
of the debtor and producer-which
stand In their Names"

Mr.. Leonard Courtney, who is one OF
the convinced bi.metallists, writes to the
Nineteenth Century on this interminable
subject. He has suggestion of his own
which he thinks both good and practi-
cal: Assuming that the existing mar
ket value of silver showed a ratio be-
tween it and gold of something between
% and "a to one, he would provide that
the mitn receive silver bullion and
grant certificates therefor which should
be legal tender at the ratio of 25 to one.

A writer in the Atlantic gives this as
the origin of the slang word ''socdolla-
ger" which was current some time ago.
'Socdollager" was the uneducated
mans transposition of ssdoxologer. y
which was the familiar New England
rendering of '.doxology.' This was the
Puritan term for the verse of ascription
used at the conclusion of every hymn,
like the .'Gloria,'' - at the end of a chant
ed psalm On doctrinal grounds it was
proper for the whole congregation to
Join In the singing, SO that it became a
triumphant winding up of the whole
act OF worship. Thus it happened that
socdolager" became the term for any
thing which left nothing else to follow;
a decisive overwhelming finish, to which
no reply was possible. m
