Animals and the Locomotives

An exchange says it is strange how
differently animals are affected by the
locomotive. Dogs will run and bark
at the wheels, leaplng about, but sci
dom get hurt. Horses will run ahead
of the engine on the track, and some
times will run half mile before they
get of. Oxen can hardly be persuad-
ed to get out of the way, while calf
will stand on the track and stare at a
locomotive until pulled away. Sheep
gre the most stupid Of all animals.

The Heft in Baptist.

Jay Cooke, in 1866, told the follow
ing story: ''0ne day, when was
putting government bonds upon the
market, l was greatly annoyed by the
clerks telling me that there was an
old man in the office who would do no
business with them, and must see me.
To get rid of him went out. Said
he: Nh. Cooke, have $4,000 in gold
this bag; 1 can't do anything with it
in the Town where l live; they are cir
culating grocer's checks and every
thing else for money, and l am fright
ened because fear | will be cheated
out of it Will you tell me on your
word of honor if these bonds are all
right? l replied: Ii they are not
right nothing is right, 1 am putting
all l have in the world into them.
After further conversation the man
concluded to take them. What de-
nomination win you have them in? l
asked. This was TOO much for the
man. he had never heard that word
used in connection with business. He
scratched his head and said: You may
give me $500 in Old School Presbyte-
rian to please the old woman, but I'll
take the heft of it in Baptist

SCORE HILL AND CRONAN
Congressman johnson Empties the
Walls of Wrath Upon Hill
and Cronan.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Congressman
johnson scored Jim Hill and Marshal
CronaD, in speaking of the deficiency
bill. The statement was made by Sayres
that the railroad troubles in the west
had caused an extra expense for mar
shals. This gave johnson chance to
score Hill. But it was upon Marshal
Cronan of North Dakota, that johnson
poured the walls of his wrath. He said
Cronan had employed lot of deputies
to lay track and work as section hands
He was particularly severe because he
said Cronan reported to Attorney Dodge
of the Great Northern road, and took
orders from the representatives of the
railroad company instead of court.

GOLD AND GOLD CONTRACTS
A New Theory of Protection, Free
Silver aud Gold Interest Beal-
ing Bonds.

EDITOR TRIBUNE: I am a protec-
ZIONIST and by protection I mean
the enactment of such national
legislation as will protect every interest
of the whole people--the manufacturer,
the miner, and the agrlculturist. Any
other view of protection in my opinion
degenerates the great subject to mere
local issue and thus takes it out of the
category of great national issues on
which the whole people through their
congress or representatives, and senators
should properly legislate. Whenever any
product or manufactured article is in
capable of being produced in this coun-
try in sufficient quantities to reasonably
supply the requirements of the whole
people, then am in favor of admitting
the same free of duty and protecting the
producer by the payment of bounties and
for this reason I believe in the theory of
the republican party, Of free sugar, with
payment of suitable bounties to proper
ly protect the producers of our country.
The great silver producing states of
Montana, Nevada, Idaho and Colorado
need protection, which in my opinion
would be suitably furnished by the pass
age of an act providing for the free and
unlimited coinage of the American out
put of silver at ratio Of sixteen OF silver
to one of gold. This would give the
American miner protection against the
cheap labor of Mexico and South Ameri-
can countries. appreciate that the
proper regulation of the finances of q
country is subject far beyond my
knowledge; far beyond the knowledge of
any who have not made special study
Of the subject for series of years, but
it seems to me from my observation, that
one of the most unjust laws in force to-
day is that which permits the enforce
ment Of payment OF any contract, both
principal and interest in gold coin. Gold
interest bearing notes and bonds are the
source, in my opinion, of much financial
distress. Were there laws enacted pro-
vidiDg for the payment Of all debts, both
principal and interest, public and pri-
vaGe, in the lawful money Of the coun-
try only, the disturbance at present
caused by the boarding Of gold would
disappear, as there would then be no
inducement left to do so. The rich will
say this would make our bonds unsal-
able in foreig countries. With such a
Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1894-06-29

theory must disagree, as our bonds
sold in foreign countries to-day are based
upon the good faith and stability of our
government, and not upon its gold re-
serve. When the credit of the nation
fails, the kind of money obligations are
payable in, will make no difference. By
such law, the money sharks of Wall
street would be deprived of half their
present power to create fuctuation in
the values Of American securities. Were
this done the obstruction of all the gold in
the world would not disturb our values.
The day has long since passed when
there was sufficient yellow metal in the
world with which to carry on its COM
mercial transactions Where then is
the justice in law which allows the
rich to exact it from the poor? Nine
nine per cent. of every dollar loaned is
furnished the borrower, not in gold, but
in the lawful money of the country-why
not then allow the borrower to pay his
obligation in the same kind of money
lawful money Of the United States be
it gold, silver or paper. .
The rich will say if a man does not
want to pay gold he ought not contract
to do so. This say is speculating on
necessities of the borrowing classes; is
an imposition upon the many by the few
Protect the poor or paying classes of the
people and you make the government
stable, and it's people prosperous and
therefore happy.
Iflawful money of the United States is
good enough to carry on commercial
transactions had between the people OF
the several states, why then is it not
good enough to compel its acceptance
in payment Of all obligations of individ-
uals and of the nation, irrespective of
the desires of money loaners to demand
the payment of obligations alone in gold:
The boarding of gold has from the begin.
ming of government on earth been a
source of much distress. Why not then
take away it's fangs by preventing the
enforcement of contracts payable alone
in that metal?
| Gold, gold, good or bad,
A thousand fold.
| How widely its uses vary,
To save-to ruin-to curse-to bless,
Now stamped by the image of good Queen
Bess,
And now of Bloody Mary.
I am in favor of protection of the Dor.
rover against the capitalist, as we'll as
the protection of the loaner against the
borrower, and the wiping out of all gold
contracts would in my opinion go fa1
toward accomplishing such result.

The Local Tie Up.

The Coxeyites' Hearing.

Three Of the Coxeyites who are con-
fined in Jail, because of completely in the
train scrape at Dickinson, we're up before
Commissioner Hoskins Tuesday after
noon. The men waived examination
and were bound over to the United
States district court.
Last night, an examination of the
others was to have been had, but cir
cumstances arose which necessitated the
postponement of the examination until
l o'clock this afternoon.
There are still about thirty Coxeyites
in the city, and lumber has been fur
nished them by sympathisers, out of
which to build boat, to make the trip
down the river. Operations are going
on busily at the landing, and when the
boat is completed, it will be provisioned
by contribution, and the men will be
started down the stream.
The Slate Trade.
The slate quarrying industry is one of
those that are feeling the dire effects of
the free trade object lesson. States are
produced in dozen different states, but
chiefly in Pennsylvania, Vermont,
Maine, Maryland, New York, Virginia,
Georgia and New Jersey.
There are 206 different quarries, the
output of which is rs per cent roofing
slate. The present tariff on roofing slate
is IS per cent ad valorem, but the Will
son tariff proposes to reduce this to 10
per cent, a loss of Is per cent to those in
terested in this industry.
There are over SIC, 900, 900 invested in
the slate trade, and there are over 5000
workers, who receive s., ,25O, 900 annually
in wages. A reduction Of Is per cent
in the tariff means a loss Of $685., 500 in
their annual earnings, if indeed it does
not mean the entire closing of the Amer
ican quarries in favor of the Welsh states
that will be able to come over as ballast,
paying no freight, to swamp our mar
kets.
On other than roofing states it is pro-
posed to reduce the duty 10 per cent, but
that part Of the American industry
which is the largest is to receive the
greatest injury, in full accord with the
policy Of destruction Of the present ad-
ministration. American Economist.
