What Wall Street Done.

Looking backward, it is recalled
that while the now prevailing cpl
demic of financial fright was yet
new, or at time when it had at
tanned to but moderately ominous
aspect, this paper attributed the Or
igin of the scare to purely specula-
tive scheme of ACKNOWLEDGMENT tax
ing it's rise in Wall street. The ulti-
mate aim and end Of that conspira-
cy was thought to have been to in
duce or compel the general govern
ment to issue it's bonds as means
of replenishing the gold reserve in
the treasury. In other words, the
spectacle is to-day staring the
American public in the face of
Wall street inaugurating greedy
run upon the government, the eff
feet Of which unexpectedly extend
ed beyond controllable limits until
finally involving the whole coun-
try in the one common "sea OF
troubles" of to-day.
Incidentally, this circumstance de-
notes the beginning of Wall streets
decline as the financial Nemesis OF
the American continent. In say
ing this it is only just to add that
the legitimate commercial and
financial interests of New York
city are as much the victims Of that
plague spot within her borders as
are those of any other part Of the
country. II may be presumed, too,
that those interests are not answer.
able for what Wall street has
wrought in this crisis. But the
supremacy of the street has been
dealt blow by the recoil Of it's own
rapacity, from which it is destined
to never recover. To do an act OF
sharp scheming it kindled flame
that is to-day scorching or consum-
ing every commercial interest and
every individual citizens interests

New York not excepted. It was a

and gives the citizens statement
every month of the real state of the
fund.
Although the present years street
fund has not been drawn upon since
March LIST, to the full extent, yet it
is certain that there is not sufficient
remaining of the street appropria-
ton to permit the council to order
any new works. The balance of
the fund will no more than pay
certain expenses that are already
provided for, and make necessary
repairs to sidewalks. The streets
have to be swept, the salaries OF
street commissioner and bridge
tender will have to be paid, few
laborers must be employed, snow tc
clear off the streets and sidewalks
and many other necessary things tc
do that will use up all the street
fund for this year.
Judge Kelley heard the arguments
on both sides, and will render hi'
decision soon.

Revolution Affecting Reader
Throughout the World.

A subject which has received much dis
cussion In all parts Of the country during
the past month has been the possibility
of The Cosmopolitan's succeeding In its
new move OF selling the magazine, un-
changed In size and even bettered in quail
lily, at the price Of twelve and one-half
cents, instead OF twenty five cents, as
formerly. The August Cosmopolitan,
for instance, was illustrated by long
list Of famous artists, including Roche
crosse, Hamilton Gibson, Guillonnet,
Kemble, Schwabe, Saunier, Goodhue,
Meaulle, Alice Barber Stephens, and the
late Wilson de Meza. The publishers In
part explain how 1t is possible to keep up
a pace Of this kind by their announce
ment that the Christmas edition will OK
coed 100000 copies, and that in conse-
quence of these large editions, they are
obliged to raise the advertising rates
from 5000 to $500 per page-flfty dollars
per page more than has ever been charged
by any of the leading magazines In this
country. This move of The Cosmopoli-
tain would look as II the American peo-
pie had been quick to appreciate the ef-
fort to furnish them magazine OF the

That Injunction.

On Saturday forenoon the injunc-
ton case against city officials, to
restrain them from issuing any
more street orders, was argued be-
fore Judge Kelley. City Attorney
Greening appeared for the city, and
j. H. Cobb represented the parties
who applied for the Injunction.
The case is as follows: When the
monthly financial statement of the
Comptroller was made public at the
meeting of the Common Council,
on the 18th, it showed that the street
fund, up to August 1st, had been
overdrawn $1,000. The report
caused considerable commotion,
and resulted IN some of the heavy
tax payers applying to Judge
Kelley for an injunction to prevent
any more street orders being drawn.
At the same meeting of the cOun-
Gil some 81, 800 additional street Or
ders were issued.
The facts brought out at the hear
ing on Saturday, showed that there
was a misunderstanding, and the
street fund was in far much better
shape than was thought by those
who read the monthly statement.
In past years the custom has
been to show in the monthly state
ment the amount Of orders issued
during the fiscal year commencing
March LIST. The orders outstand-
ing were not included in the state
ment, and the general belief was
that the last financial statement of
the Comptroller was made out in a
similar manner, but, instead, the
report includes the street orders
drawn this year and, also, the street
orders outstanding last March.
IL the report had been made out
the same as reports of other years,
it would have shown that the street
fund of 1898 was not overdrawn,
but, on the contrary, there were
several thousand dollars of this
years street appropriation yet not
drawn upon.
Comptroller McVicar's system of
making out the financial statement
shows just exactly how the street
fund is in regard to orders issued,

Silver Question"

We would again suggest that
1.-THE Silver Question, with its vast
and incalGulable possibilities for
good or i'll, for the prosperity OF
bankruptcy of the greater part OF
the human race, be submitted to
the arbitrament, decision and con-
troll Of an international Monetary
Clearing House, or commission
composed of expert representatives
of the nations, empowered and in
structed by their respective govern
ments-
To select universal none
tary standard;
2 To adopt measures for secur-
ing the use of gold and silver on
such a flexible ratio as will effect
permanent stability in the value OF
the worlds money.
3 To adopt measures for facili.
tating international monetary tran.
sactions and their supervision and
control.
The experience of the past justi,
fies the belief that such a body OF
experts, representing the interests
of the civilized world, would arrive
at wiser and juster solution OF
the problem than could be expected
from the more or less biased legis-
lators of any one country. This
Monetary Clearing House exercis.
ing functions somewhat similar to
those of bank clearinghouse
would prevent any sudden changes
and fluctuations in the value of the
money of the world, which changes
are so disastrous in every depart.

In establishing on an absolute
stable, permanent basis the money
of the whole world and in provid-
ing a universal currency, good the
world over, and in exercising sal.
utary suspension and control over
all the monetary transactions OF
nations, it would develop confidence
everywhere and would draw out III
to active use the vast amounts OF
both gold and silver boarded in
many countries and thus bring
about such an impetus to industry

Of general prosperity as has never

The Californian for September comes
to the front promptly with the beautiful
colored cover Of popies which the publish
ers have adopted during the Worlds
Fair. The issue is rich in fiction and
illustrated descriptive articles. Indian
life on the plains is graphically presented
in paper by Werner u. Reed on 1.-The
Southern Utes," I'm which many interest
ing features in the life of these people
are brought out. The illustrations are
from photographs and fine sketches by
Harmer and Craig. A paper of more
than ordinary interest is a description of
the children of the street In San Francis
co. Some of the illustrations of the pa
per are among the finest ever seen In any
magazine. The rise Of the Pacific Coast
Woman's Press Association Is described
by its founder, the late Mrs. Z. i. Y.
Parkhust. While Ensign Burke in q
paper OH the naval reserve shows what
the Golden State has done in this direc-
ton. The article is richly illustrated.
The silver question is presented in two
timely papers by Congressman Bowers Of
San Diego and Hon. M. M. Estee of San
Francisco. John Craig gives q most in
teresting exposition OF the arts Of 1.-THE
Smuggler," while some illustrated papers
Of interest are Irving" by Peter Rob-
ertson, the Nevada Footprints" and
"Ibsen."
The fiction of the issue is particularly
noticeable and the illustrations of the
story ''In San Sebastian Valley" by Flora
Haines Loughead are equal to any in the
Century. Editorials, book reviews, ETC.,
bring the issue well to the front.

Another Voice Heard.

In speaking of the trip of the
editors to the Worlds Fair the Big
Rapids Herald, published by VIM.
p. Nisbett, says:
When the Press party last month
was enroute to Chicago by way of
the lakes, the steamer, by courtesy of
the management, stopped at Alpe-
ma two or three hours that the par
ty might enjoy the Inequalities
rendered them several weeks previ-
Gus. The party was met by a band
of music, and escorted to hotels,
where a most elegant breakfast
awaited them. The menu cards
were unusually handsome, and
formed souvenirs of the pleasant
trip. The short sojurn was unusal-
ly pleasant to the writer, for he
there met some old friends and ac-
quaintances About: twenty years
ago, his late business partner, John
G. Wall, left Pontiac and located
with his family at Alpena and has
since there remained, publishing
the ARGUS, growing up with the
thrifty city, and becoming one Of
its prosperous and well-to-people.
Only on two occasions since the
dissolution had we met John, and
both were pleased to renew the
friendship of generation ago.
Then, too, there were other old
friends, not the least being Senator
Andrew Harshaw, (now mayor of
the city, and daughter, H. c. Ham,
i'll and wife and o. l.. Partridge.
The greetings were most cordial
and pleasant. An hour was devot-
ed to carriage drive about the city,
and a hasty view of the wood pulp
and other industries that have help
ed make Alpena famous. 1t would
surprise many residents of old set
tied cities that to-day jog along as
a quarter of century ago, to see
what a modern town Alpena is,
Handsome blocks of buildings,
paved streets, iron bridges, electric
lights, water works and all that
rightfully belong to a live and pros
porous town in The last years Of the
nineteenth century. Visitors will
long remember the few hours SO
pleasantly spent with the good peo-
pie of Alpena.

Iowa Democrats, last week, con-
tains the folling:
The present unfortunate financi-
al stringency is the legacy of Re
publican administration. 1t is the
logical result of the Mckinley tariff,
of the Sherman silver law, of fos-
tering trusts, of legislation for the
avowed benefit of classes against
the masses, of preference of the
rich over the poor in legislation,
and of corruption, combination, and
bossism. 1t is these things which
have combined to shake credit, to
paralyze business, and to create
panic.
The attempt to shift responsible
ty for the present unfortunate state
of affairs upon the Democratic add
ADMINISTRATION which has been in
place for less than six months is
futile and absurd. Four years ago
Democratic administration left to
its successor surplus of 100000
600. The Republican administers
ton left the present financial troub-
lie among the people and an empty
treasury. Taxation of the whole
people for the benefit of the few is
wrong in principal and dishonest in
application. We denounce this
policy, and reiterate our devotion
to the cause of tariff reform sci
forth in the platform adopted in
1892, and we urge Congress to give
the county early relief, having in
view. the permanent, stable, honest
and equitable revenue system.
At the same convention Gov
Bots was re-nominated as the
Democratic candidate for Governor
