THOROUGHLY VICIOUS.
What Senator Sherman Says
Of the Tariff Bill.
oEMocRATlc oPPosITIoN ToIT
Its Fate in the Senate Uncertain--
Every Republican State Should
Be Fully Represented.
Associated Press.

Spokane, Jan. 10. Walter Hnghson,
of this CITY, has received the following
letter from Senator Sherman, of Ohio.
and forwarded it to Governor McGraw:
Washington, Jan. S--Your letter is
received. 1 have not felt at liberty to
write to the governor of Washington
advising a special session Of the legis,
lature to elect republican senator. I
have felt that he is better able to de-
termine this question than at this
distance; that 1t would be presumption
in me to volunteer my opinions were
they asked by him. think the fate
of the tariff bill is very uncertain in
the senate. There is strong opposition
to it in the democratic party, hut
whether 1t will die away under the
persuasive influence Of the administra-
ton and party pride, no one can as
yet state. The tariff bill as it now
stands is thoroughly vicious, not only
affecting injuriously industries Of this
country, but it is still more vicious in
largely reducing revenue and creating
a deficiency which must be met by
loans or insolvency That every re-
publican state should be fully repre-
sented is a palpable fact, but whether
your legislature is in condition to elect
a senator is a fact that cannot deter
mine.

THE BOND ISSUE.
Silver Men Object strenuously to the
Gold Clause"

T.
Washington, Jan. 19--A strong senti-
ment is expressed xamong the Silver
leaders of the house against the "gold
clause" Of Secretary Carlisles notice of
the offer Of bonds. Representative
Bland, democrat, OF Missouri, says;
"The standard silver dollar is full legal
tender, and it can be offered and re-
ceived in payment for these bonds. The
act does not say gold coin. At the
time of the act the standard silver
dollar was full legal tender. so 1t must
be included in the meaning Of the
word 'coin.'"
Some anti-silver men take issue with
Bland on this point. They say the
bonds were issued under the resump-
tion act Of 1875, which provides that
bonds should be sold for "ccin.n but
they point out that before this in 1873
silver was demonetized, so 1t could
not be included in the meaning Of the
word Coin" Aside from the legality
of the gold clause, silver mer say 1t is
against public policy to make public
discrimination against one OF the mon
ey metals now in use, and the effect
of the secretary's action is to send gold
coin to a premium and disturb the par
ity between gold and silver coins.

THE CHARGE DISMISSED.
A Postal Inspectors Diary Letter and
What Came of It.

Portland, Jan. 19.--Mrs. Or. J. G.
Adams, charged with sending improper
matter through the mails, was dis
charged today by Judge Bellinger. 1t
was shown that the letter written by
Mrs. Adams was in response to one re-
ceived by her from Postal Inspector
Thrall, who signed fictitious name
and the improper matter was in re-
ply to inquiries of the postal inspector.
The judge said the postal inspector
in this case was not engaged in detect
ing crime, but in securing the COM
mission of one by means of a decoy
letter The courts, said the judge, had
never gone so far as to assist the gov
ernment officials to secure the eonvic-
tion of persons by decoying them into
the commission of crime.

These figures are sufficient to show that
an increase of mortgage debt may be con-
sistent with. very active growth and
prosperity. Taken all in all, they demon
strate conclusively some i'm cortant propo-
sitions. First, that the &kB17th of debt
charges on this community Las not been
disproportional, considering the recent de-
velopment of the state.
Second, that the rate of increase has
been smaller in Minnesota than in other
states under somewhat similar conditions
Third, that the increase of debt is an in
cldent OF the increase of wealth and has
only fairly kept pace with it.
Fourth, that by far the largest share of
this load has been assumed by the dealers
in city property, and that the increase in
farm debts is not above the normal.
There is one other point in these STA
tistics that should be brought out en-
phatically. Every Populist speaker en-
deavors to impress the farmer with a
sense of the outrage committed upon him
by the appreciation in the value of money.
No such appreciation can injure the
farmer only if it takes place between the
time when his debt is contracted and TIE
time when it has to be paid. All these
calamities, however, run back to the
demonetization of silver in 1873, and the
alleged contraction of currency since then.
But if what they assert should be true
instead of being false, as it is. their argu-
ment would be worthless. 1t is shown by
this census bulletin that the average lite
of a mortgage upon farm property is only
four and a half years, u period so short
that not even the most reckless ranter on
financial topics, would claim that there
had been an appreciable change within it
in the value of money. AS far as the
farmer is concerned, therefore, the injury
supposed to be done him by the alteration
in money values, becomes, in the light of
these figures, mere smoke and moon
shine
