The Bond Issue.

There does not seem to be any immedi-
ate necessity for a bond issue by the gov
eminent, because the treasury has sufi-
cient funds to meet current expenses, and
the gold reserve is considerably larger
than it was when bonds were issued less
than year ago. The revenues. how
ever, are not equal to the governments
expenses, and there is some anxiety lest
there should be a sudden outflow of gold
of such dimensions as would shake conf
dence in the ability of the government
to furnish gold on demand.
1t is therefore thought advisable to
place the treasury in n condition that will
relieve all apprehensions of danger. If
there is to be a bond issue it is better
for several reasons that it should be
arranged before congress meets. A dis
cussion of financial matters by congress
at this time, would do the country no good
and might do it a great deal of harm. The
silver question would be injected into it
and there is no telling what the outcome
might be.
The New York banks have agreed to
take the bonds and furnish the gold for
them. and they are rather glad to do so,
because they have great deal more
money on hand than they know what to
do with. The bond issue will withdraw
nearly $6OOOOOOO from Immediate circula-
ton, and the banks therefore, will. be
able to get better rates of interest for
what they have on hand.
The administration, of course, takes a
great responsibility in increasing the pub
lie debt, but if it is necessary to have the
money to protect the credit of the govern
ment there is only one course to pursue.

Hermann cave Il o..

tor of the Chicago Times, to q New York
Press reporter Il was reminded of an in
teresting incident that happened ten or
twelve years ago in Chicago, in which

ton in Chicago at the time. She per-
formed many wonderful feats which |
have never been able to explain. Herr
mann, John H McNicker, myself and one
or two others were lunching together af-
ter the theater Hermann volunteered
to wager any sum that he could do any
thing Mrs. Simpson could do. After some
chatting back and forth McNicker accepted
Herrmann's challenge and put up $101.
The next day We called on Mrs Simp-
son. She had been given no notice of our
coming or of the bet. We We're shown
into room which was perfectly bare eX-
cept for a table and few chairs. AS
soon as we We're seated shower of paper
descended to Herrmann'S head and shout
ders; no one could tell where the paper
came from; it seemed to mateTialize out

Mrs Simpson asked us to draw our
chairs up to the table and each one placed

over and suddenly there appeared Il live

A Good Suggestion.

At the convention OF the cotton planters
which met on Tuesday in Montgomery,
Ala, the suggestion was made that every
possible encouragement should be given by
the southern people to the building of fac
tories in the south for the manufacture
of cotton yarn. The yarn commands about
twice the price of cotton. II the bulk OF
the cotton crop were manufactured into
yarn before it leaves the south the south
would receive for her cotton crop about
twice the amount Of money annually that
she now receives.
Besides enriching the south such cotton
yarn factories would furnish employment
for a very large number of people The
yarn would be about as acceptable in both
foreign and domestic markets as the cot
ton itself now is. The owners of northern
cotton factories are so enthusiastic in
respect to the projects of the south that
many of them are either moving their
plants to the south or are preparing to
build factories within her limits.
The south must do something to get
more out of her cotton crop There is no
profit in cotton at 3 cents a pound. If the
south can get 10 cents for it by turning
it into yarn there ought to be a movement
in the direction of manufacturing the cot
ton into yarn as quickly as possible.
Another suggestion that was thrown out
at the convention is a good one. 1t is that
congress be urged to adopt at an early a
day as possible legislation looking to the
opening of the Nicaragua canal. The
opening of that canal would bring us much
nearer to China and Japan which have
immense cotton mill plants, and which, if
the canal were opened, would take a great
deal more of our cotton than they now do.
The cotton planters appear to be wax
ing up to the importance of looking more
carefully after their interests and we are
glad they are. They will have to be on
their guard however, against attractive
schemes, apparently for their benefit, but
which are almost always for the benefit
of the parties who propose them.

Not an Endorsement of moKinleyisrn

The Morning News said the other day
not mean that the people want the Nc
Kinley tariff, and it also said that if the
Republican party should succeed in get
ting control of both the executive
and legislative branches of the
government it would not mate
rally change the Wilson tariff
that is, it would not change it any further
than would be necessary to enable it to
put its own stamp upon it, and thus be
enabled 20 claim it as a republican meas
ure. That party is well satisfied that
the day for high protective tariff
tariff that shuts out healthy competi-
ton, and permits monopolies and trusts
to thrive-is a thing of the past.
Mr.. Sherman the leading republican SEN
ator, takes about the same view. In an
interview a day or two ago he said Il
do not regard the present result as an
an Endorsement of the Mckinley bill or
a demand on the part of the people for
radical tariff Legislation. 1 hardly be-
lieve the party will enter into any extreme
legislation of this kind. 1 would not favor
any great increase of duties. 1 believe in
so placing the duties as to allow of a
healthy foreign competition"
This is very moderate tariff talk, and
docs not indicate a purpose to restore
the Mckinley tariff. On the contrary. it
is an admission from republican stand
point that the democrats We're on the
right tack in their reform tariff legisla-
ton. 1t is also an indirect opinion that
the reason the democrats We're defeated,
and the control of the mkt House taken
from them, was their delay IN passing
measures imperatively demanded, thus
continuing the uncertainty that was doing
| the country almost incalculable injury.
The number of permanent assertions
from the democratic party is very small,
but the number of democrats who were
determined to give their party a lesson
for it's dillydalying in congress while
business and industrial interests were
suffering, was large.

In New York they have a law requiring

calities in which vote-buying is practiced.
