Both Old Parties the Same

James Brice, British author and
statesman, in his writing on "The
American Commonwealth" volume 2
page 20, says:
There are now two great and several
minor political parties in the United
States. The great parties are the Re-
publicanS and Democrats. What are
their principles, their distinctive ten
cts, their tendencies? That is what
an European is always asking of intel
ligent Democrats and Republicans.
He is always asking because he never
gets an answer. The replies leave
him in deep perplexity After some
months the truth begins to dawn upon
him. Neither party has anything def
mite to say on these issues: neither
party has any principles, any distinct
i've tenets. Both have traditions.
Both have claim, to have tendencies.
Both have certain war-cries, organiza-
tion, Interest enlisted in their sup

main, the interests of getting or keep

The Devil Was h1nce an Angel.


John Sherman, who today ranks as
the third most fhfernal tory that
America has ever >produced-G Grover
Cleveland rankingSkrst and Benedict
Arnold Arr second loos in a speech deliy-
II say that equality and Justice are
amply satisfied if we redeem these
bonds at the end of~five years in the
same kind Of money, of the same in
trinsic value it bore at the time they
were issued. Gentlemen may reason
about this matter over and over again,
and they cannot come to any other
conclusion, at least that has been my
conclusion after the most careful con-
sidelation. Senators are sometimes in
the habit, in order to defeat the argu-
iment of an antagonist, of saying that
this is population. Why, sirs, every
Citizen ofthe United States has con-
formed his business to the legal tender
clause. He has collected and paid his
debts accordingly"
That was when John Sherman was
poor. In 1879, Sherman, the million
aire," said:
''Io refuse to pay the bonds in gold
would be reputation and extortion
and would be soothing at the blessings
Of Almighty God"
The biblical story of the devil, who
was once an angel, fits John Sherman
as though it was made to order for
him.-Omaha Evening News.

Mr.. Pullman'S Testimony.

In his testimony before the strike
Investigating committee Mr.. George
Nj. Pullman testified that the $50 .OOO,-
600 capital stock of the company rep
resented cash actually paid in, and
that over and above this the rpora-
ton had an undivided surplus of $25,-
OOO.O0O. Accepting Mr.. Pullman's
statement as correct, the people will
be interested in the fact that the as
sessment in Illinois on this SOL, 900, 900
of property owned by the Pullman
Palace Car company is 1890, 900, or
less than 3 per cent of it's actual value.
1t is understood that the CORPORATION
has not made it's returns to the state
board of equalization this year. How
would it be for that body to take Mr..
Pullman's sworn statement of the
value of the corporations property in
lieu thereof?
Aside from this Pullman's testi-
mony is chiefly interesting as showing
how an enormous corporation can
grow up from small concern. enrich
ing it's shareholders, accommodating
enormous surplus profits, gathering
together real property which gains in
value year by year through the mere
momentum Of business. extending it's
activities in every direction, making
profitable contracts stretching far in
to the future, crushing out business
rivals, and finally reaching the enor-
nous figure Of SOL 900, 900 accumulated
property, swaying legislatures and
courts and even influencing the fed
eral government itself. Side by side
with this picture of corporate growth
and swelling riches is another. While
dividends remain steady and undivid-
ca profits accumulate wages go down.
Then men, women, and little children

wages have decreased as his surplus

MERGE, Sept. 4.-The local crowd OF wheat
traders hardly knew what was best to do
this morning. Opening prices were frac-
tionally higher than Saturday and we'll held
up to nearly noon. About 1880 the mar
ket weakened in sympathy with Chicago
1t was thought that Chicago had a good
mixing of what the visible supply state
ment would show and each determined that
the increase was likely larger than pre-
Viousiy expected. Hence the weakness
At about $40 the visible supply statement
was posted showing an increase of 217S, COO
bushels for the week-about 900 bushels
larger than expected. The news of the
day was rather discoura ging from all quar-
ters. Early cables quoted Liverpool as dull
and heavy with the tendency to cheaper
wheat. Paris was 20 centimes higher for
spot wheat but weak and lower for distant
futures. Berlin advised of 1&i to pa marks
