A FEW EXAMPLES.

Concrete examples of the prevailing
disturbance in the business world are
far more convincing than columns OF
glittering generalities and deductions,
The Illinois Steel Company, the second
largest in the world, has just made its
annual report. This shows that the
amount written off of values of its stocks
to conform to present prices was 81 ,467,-
81, thus wiping out its entire surplus
and creating deficit, December 81, of
S349. .472.
Think Of it. All that shrinkage in
value in nine months of Cleveland
times. What a tremendous falling off
in value in the stocks held by only one
big company.
President Blackstone of the Chicago
81 Alton Railroad, in his annual report,
attributes the present troubles to that
"want of confidence" in Congress,
which is making radical departure
from the policy of protection to Ameri-
can industries under which the indus
trial classes, including all who are de-
pendent upon manual labor, have for
many years enjoyed greater prosperity
than has been enjoyed by similar class
of persons in any other country in the
world"
The Financial Chronicle which pre-
dicted greater prosperity than the
country has seen since $780," immedi-
ately after the repeal of the silver pur-
chase clause of the Sherman act of 1890,
is now seeking some explanation to
offer for the fact that business in gen.
eral is worse today than it was five
months ago.
The NEWS does not cite these cases
to pose merely as an alarmist. nor to
disturb public confidence and excite
distrust, but in order to thoroughly
arouse the people to full and realizing
sense of the condition to which this
nation has been reduced by the transfer
renee of power into the hands of the
Democracy, in order that the con-
troll may be taken away by an indignant
and injured people and placed once
more into safe hands and under wise
government.

Ii has helped TO tear down 1t has
printed columns upon columns OF matter
to prove that tho Democratic party was
better fitted to carry on this government
than the Republican party and now
when it declares that it was mistaken
and the party of its choice and advocacy
is entrusted with power 1t is
unfit to exercise" it has no remedy TO
suggest, and can only wiring its hands
and cry out in dismay. 1t can tear
down but cannot build up.
1t presents a pitiable spectacle and its
own reflection in the looking glass must
cause it the most intense sorrow and
disgust.
An alder and abettor of this weak,
vacillating, policy-less party of destruc-
tion, when it surveys the wreck that II
and its party has caused, it can only
stand and lament the destruction and
ruin without offering to aid in bringing
back the good times of honest money,
capable government, and prosperity and
protection.

peared and demanded aid from the
Governor and the Legislature. Govern
or Greenhalge addressed the gathering
promising to do all that he could consti-
tutionally do to grant their requests.
When he retired the crowd surged in
to the State House, captured 1t, and
urged on by some turbulent spirits,
shouted and yelled defiance to the police
and demanded the overthrow OF capital.
Bloodshed was threatened and for a
time things looked as though the halls
of the old State House would flow with
blood, but Governor Greenhalge, learn
ing of the incendiary language used,
strobe out Of his private Office and con-
fronted the man who had been har-
ranguing the mob, he took him to
task in way that thoroughly
cowed the man and told him
that he should hold him personally re-
sponsible if riot ensued. He declared
that any orderly appeal would be given
respectful consideration and that men
were at liberty to come to the Legislature
in an orderly way and present their
grievances, but that any attempt at mob
violence wonld be put down without
mercy. The gallant action OF the
Governor in checking this
incendiary speech, and in facing the
bowling mob. piyes nroof of the stuff
that he is made of, and shows him to be
the right man in the right place. A
squad of bluecoats soon dispersed the
mob, who retreated to the Common, and
there listened to more speeches OF less
violent character. THE NEWS congratu-
lates Massachusetts, upon her plucky and
level-heade1 Governor. He is an honor
to the State, and to New England.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING.
The News as an Example Of Journal-
istic Methods.

(From The Pawtuxet Valley Daily Times.)
THE PROVIDENCE NEWS, under its new
management, continues to improve and
grow in popularity and influence. The
people of Providence are catching on to it
fast, and il has succeeded in establishing
an astonishingly large circulation for so
short time, crowding its
competitors close for first place.
The result is demonstrating a truth
that is not unfamiliar to newspaper work
ers, namely, that q company OF trained
journalists who know how to make q
newspaper and know what the readers OF
newspapers want, can succeed where tho
mere putting in OF large sums OF money
without having the right men will
fail. Running q newspaper is like any
other business-large capital alone will
not make success. The NEWS heretofore
had plenty of financial backing and syi.i-
pat by from prominent Republican sources,
all looking to the establishment Of news
paper in the chief city OF the State
that should worthily represent Re-
publican sentiments. But strange AZ
it may appear, all this support
failed to makea success Of the paper. To-
day, however, all Is different. Three ac-
tive, experienced newspaper men,
all young, aggressive ana am
bilious only to build up q
good newspaper property, have assumed
charge, and in two short months have
made newspaper that is worth reading
and is valuable to the Republican party.
They probably have not been able to cap
italize the paper with one half the money
Il has enjoyed under former management.
They are making Republican paper be-
cause they are all Republicans, and from
business point OF view the only opening
in Providence was for Republican
newspaper. But not a single Repub-
lican politician in the State has . fin
ger in the pie, and the prominent gentle
men who lent assistance to the old News
now have no connection with the paper,
nor has any one outside OF our friends,
George Mackinnon, Mart Day and Charlie
Rowland, the proprietors, any claim or
hold upon the property, and they are not
the kind Of men to let any one get hold
on them.
We congratulate the boys on the splen-
did work they are doing and on the ex-
ample they are giving OF independent
journalism as a successful profession.
