Congressman Jerry Simpson, one
of the active Populist members
from Kansas, who will be can
didate for re election next fall, will
have a hard fight to win the race
against Chester l. Long, who was
nominated by the Republicans of
the Sixth District recently. The
theories of the Populists are not as
popular now as formerly.-Oxford
Press.
Now tell us where you get your
information. We heard something
very like this two years ago from
similar source, but Jerry got II, 900
more votes than at his first election.
The Santa Fe railroad shipped in
1000 repeaters for the Republican
candidate with the hope of defeat
ing Jerry but failed. The railroad
is in receivers hands and will
hardly be able to help Long next
fall.

A Remarkable Rainfall.

This generation will not soon for
get the rainstorm that deluged
Philadelphia and this section OF
Pa. for practically three days.
Beginning Friday evening, it con-
tinued with only a few intermissions
until far into Monday night and
furnished in the aggregate such a
precipitation as has not been known
in this vicinity for twelve years.
The steady, heavy downpour OF
Monday was of itself remarkable.
For twenty hours or more the rain
fell as if a huge sponge laden with
water were held over the city while
its contents were being squeezed
out of it.
The recorded precipitation at the
Signal Service Office in this city is
5.42 inches from Friday evening
until s O'Clock Tuesday morning.
At the Pennsylvania Hospital the
record was $40 inches, but in other
parts of the city the precipitation
was much larger. At 1929 Cen
tennial Avenue, about one and
three-quarter miles northwest from
the post office, the rain gauge of
Mr.. John Comfy showed total fall
of $40 inches, and at Dudley Sta
ton, in New Jersey, about three
miles east from the post Office, the
rain gauge of Mr.. L. M. Dey, Sig
nal Service Officer in this city,
showed a precipitation of $50.
Both these records are absolutely
trustworthy. At Phoenixville the
total rainfall was Z inches. No
where outside of Eastern Penn
sylvania and the strip of New
Jersey adjoining it does the record
show such a heavy precipitation
during the past five days.-Press,
Philada.

ITO Hear The Wild Birds Sing.

This is a big country, but it isn't
big enough for two protection par
ties. If the Democrats in the rest
of the country are as mad as they
are about here at the protectionists
in the party who have betrayed it
to its enemies, these two protection
parties will soon have to unite
against no tariff party.-Cecil
Democrat.

REFORM idea from the speeches and
messages of the republican Presid-
ents and leading members in con-
gress, and the bill the two parties
have fixed up in the senate CORES
ponds with their recommendations
before Cleveland's first term. The
rub-a-dub between the two is all
for the purpose Of bamboozling the
stupid partisans of each party who
can't see an inch before their nose.

wheel of all banking. But if money is
scarce-not enough in circulation to fur
nish the amount required and for which
ample security is offered, then contrac-
ton of the loans takes place. And
although the banks may and often do,
loan ten dollars for every dollar in circu-
lation, there is limit to their power to
loan. That is what causes panics. The
banks are circumscribed in their business
by the amount of their deposits, and the
deposits are subject entirely to the volume
of currency in circulation. This condi-
ton would not occur were the peoples
government the peoples banker. AS long
as the demands of business supplied the
sufficient security for the repayment of
loans at maturity the government could
supply all such legitimate demands, and
that would regulate the volume of cur
rency, that would create flexible cur
rency," and no other system can accom-
plish this desirable financial achievement.
We will leave the commercial feature
of the system of government banks and
turn to the loans which Coxey proposes
to furnish by his scheme of non-interest-
bearing bonds to States, municipalities,
counties, &c. A system of government
banks would accomplish all that Coxey
proposes, and do it with the volume of
money in use. AS the municipalities
drew it out for expenditure, the money
would flow back into the banks, just as it
does every day in the banks now in
operation. When municipalities or States
borrow by issuing bonds, from capitalists,
they receive for use for the time being a
part of the daily circulating medium
which tine capitalist has deposited in the
banks to his credit. If he doesn't expend
it in the purchase of bonds he loans it for
some other purpose.
We might readily enlarge on these
points but the reader will see that all, and
much greater benefit would accrue to the
public through system of government
banks, that CoXey proposes to confer by
his plan, which would work in the first
distributing stage but without the ma
chinery of government banks as a refuge
for the people, the corporation banks
would receive the whole issue in their
deposits and go to grinding out usury
from the people with greatly enlarged
mill.

The plutocrat papers are bowling over
the proposed Income Tax as a tax on
Industry. Would it be tax on pro-
ducti0e industry or the kind of industry
that schemes and plots but produces
nothing? An industry which grows rich
at others expense? The most forcible
answer to this inquiry is that not one
farmer in Cecil county whose income is
derived from farming would pay one cent
of tax on income.

The press dispatch disposes with the news
of the election in one line /: "The repub
licans elected their entire ticket" In
1898 the populists polled I,oIS. This
year they more than doubled their vote.
And this is about the way the populist

No Tidings of a Missing Man.

A gentleman from New London
on Tuesday told The Press that T..
EllwOod Martin has not had any
information respecting the where
abOuts of his son, Samuel Martin,
whose mysterious disappearance
occurred recently. The young
mans father is a merchant at New
London and has a drug department
in his store, which was fitted up
and stocked, Mr.. Martin desiring
that his son should take charge of
it. The son has for some time past
been employed in drug store in
Wilmington where he obtained
much practical knowledge of the
business. 1t is reported that he
failed to pass at the recent examina-
ton of the class at the College of
Pharmacy, Philadelphia, where he
attended lectures. This it is sup
posed had depressing effect upon
the young man. On leaving home
the father understood his son was
going to Harrisburg to be examined
by the State Board of Pharmacy
for diploma allowing him to prac-
tice as druggist. Young Martin
did not reach Harrisburg and has
not since been seen by his parents.
1t is said that the young man had
a desire to see the country and Is
now gratifying his curiosity.-Ox-
ford Press.
The above is brother of Warren
Martin who is well known in this
vicinity, having served several
years as clerk for Mr., Il. r.. Buffing-
ton.
