waiting for "suckers.

It is generally supposed that the
support of Wall street is necessary to
the success Of any considerable I'M
dertaking in this country, and it is
not unusual for people to credit that
center with the investment OF its own
funds. A more correct supposltlon ls
that it is q center Of schemers and
promoters. True, the banks OF Wall
street become the depositors for a
large proportion Of the surplus capt.
tai Of the country and experience has
shown what proportion Of this may
be invested by it's custodians, and
what kind of enterprises may be
"promoted" with profit to the promo
ters European money centers are
similarly managed. These promoters
are expecting harvest" as soon as
the revival of industries begins.
Speaking of the situation, Henry
Clews, in last Sundays circular says;
In Europe and here, promoters are
hungry after their long starvation,
and bankers and spectators are eager
for opportunities to make up for the
losses and the dull times under which
they have been suffering, These
classes are waiting for indications of
the arrival of the biting mood among
the fish of which they are anglers,
and they may be expected to be soon
seen throwing out their lines. This
at least we augur from the present
symptoms; and the starting time is
likely to date from the passing of the
tariff bill, or its near prospect"
1t would be refreshing If the author
of the above quoted statement would
inform a waiting public in what part
of the world he expects the suckers,
first to appear.-KanSdS Farmer.

1t has doubled the value Of all rail-

II has doubled the value of all
bonds and other evidences of debt.
1t has doubled the value of all

salary of $4,000 year, is receiving,
practically, twice as much as he did
twenty-five years ago.
It has increased the burdens of the
working classes and doubled the for

WHAT stands in the way of indie
pendent action by the United States
What is to prevent this country from
opening its mints TO the coinage of
silver on the same terms with gold7
We are told by those whose ignorance
has been played upon by the phrase
Sound money" (Which is pure cant
and hypocrisy when applied to money
that is constantly increasing in value)
that the moment our mints are open
to silver our stock Of gold will disa-
pear, and that instead of having BIZ
metallic standard we shall have the
single silver standard, which will
place our currency upon level with
that of Mexico,
Now, 1t is difficult to deal with nm
assumption, When men with whom
you are discussing question deiber-
ately abandon arguments and facts
and logic, and rest their whole case
on an assumption, You cannot meet
them with arguments. 1t Is an as
sumption that the law of supply and
demand will suddenly become in
operative. There is no reason given
for ii, but it IS assumed that the de-
mand OF slxty-hye million peolpe for
silver when that metal is made a
money metal will have no effect on
Its value. Ii is assumed that 4l21
grains Of standard silver will be
worth 4S or 40 ceuts in our own mar
kets at the same moment that it could
be exchanged for legal tender dol
lar at the minis, 1t is assumed that
4l24 grains of silver will be worth
about 81 cents in England and con-
tinental Europe at the same moment
that it can be sent to this country and
exchanged for a dollars worth of
cotton, wheat, petroleum, or any other
commodity which this country sends
abroad,-Ai0Hto Constitution.

EVERY year it becomes more appar-
ent that government based on force
Is not the best government possible.
Such a government teaches lesson
to Its people which they are not slow
to follow. AS an illustration Of this,
one has but 10 look at the methods
generally adopted by striking work
men. They quit work and IN most
Instances try by sheer force to pre-
vent other workmen from filling their
places, and sometimes they are sue
cesstul. 1t matters not how badly
other men want the job they are pre-
vented from taking 1t by superior
force. Trades unlOnlsts have been
taught to believe that the only way 10
get their rights Is to deprive other
people of theirs. How much better

GREAT ROCK ISLAND ROUTE
TO THE EAST,

BEST DINING CAR SERVICE IN THE WORLD.
The Rock Island is foremostin adopt
ing any advantage calculated to i'm
prove speed and give that luxury, safety
and comfort that popular patronage de-
mands. Its equipment is thoroughly
complete with vestibuled trains, n ag-
nifcent dining cars, sleepers and chat,
coaches, all the most elegant, and
recently improved patterns.
Faithful and capable n.anagemeu
and polite, honest service from EN-.
ployes are important items. They are
a double duty-to the Company and to
travellers and it is sometimes a task
difficult of accomplishment. Passen-
gers on this line will find little cause
for complaint on that ground.
The Importance of this Line can be
better understood if short lesson in
geography be now recited.
What is the great Eastern termini of
the Rock Island Route?-Chicago.
What other sub-Eastern termini has
it2-Peoria, To what important points
does it run trains to the Northwest?-
st. Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota,
and Watertown and Sioux Falls, Da-
kota. To what important Iowa and
Nebraska points? Moines, Daven-
port, Iowa; Omaha and Lincoln, Ne.
braska.
REMEMBER
The Great Rock Island Route runs all
regular trains to Englewood suburban
station, close to Worlds Fair grounds.
and you can save time and. trouble by
getting off at that point and avoid the
crowd in the city.
