A ZIG GOLD EXPORT.

New York, March Tt is said that
$3.50, 900 and $1,000, 600 of gold will go
abroad by Saturdays steamships, I4azard
Freres & Co and Ladencerg, Thalman &
Co. being quoted as the shippers.
1t is understood that the banks will
furnish no more gold for export and that
sent out will have to come from the Sub
Treasury, the officials of which are not
pleased with this decision. They think
the banks should contribute at least a
part of the amount to be exported.
These are very significant paragraphs,
all the more important because they are
current news items rather than matter
intended for purely party purposes They
point out the veral and corrupt material
the United States Senate is largely COM
posed of, and reveal the dangerous ele-
1nent it is to the liberties of the people A
stronger reason for its abolition-its wip-
ing entirely out of existence-could
scarcely be brought to the public mind
than its mercenary and thoroughly rotten
character as a law making body. A gang
of stock jobbers, manipulating the mar
kets by the use of the sacred trust placed
i'll their hands as a law making body to
conserve and guard the people from too
hasty or inconsiderate legislation, turning
this great power entrusted to them to a
corrupt use to influence the sales of stock
of a corrupt trust What moral differ.
ence exists between such men and the
generals of the Roman army i'll the days
of the decline and fall of the Empire,
when they put the Empire up at auction
and sold it to the highest cash bidder i?
There is absolutely no difference A fav-
orable opportunity only is lacking to sell
the Presidency 10 the highest bidder.
The press dispatch from Wall street
epitomises the contemplate position
which the John Sherman-Cleveland
financial gold policy has placed this gov
ernment in. The Jew gold shippers of
New York, agents for their kindred on
the other side of the Atlantic, go to the
Sub-Treasury when they please and de-
mand as much gold to be brought out
and delivered to them as they want. AS
the forty thieves of the Arabian Nights
opened the rock doors of their cave with
the magic words: "open, sesame" so
these Wall street Jew gold shippers com.
mand by word the steel doors of the
gold vaults of the United States Treasury
to open and the gold to be handed out to
them in dray loads.
Then behold the Treasury officials
whiningly complain that the national
banks refuse TO help them supply gold to
shippers. while bankers jeer
and laugh i'll their face when they COM
plain. The banks can control their gold
treasure but the great government of the
United States cannot. Altho' it created
the banks, the banks are greater than
their creator when such men as Carlisle
are placed i'll control.
And to this humiliating condition have
the people, by a blind party superstition,
reduced their government. They have
appointed wolves to guard the sheep fold,
and thieves the custodians of their treas
ures. Thomas Jefferson said "Let lis
make laws where there shall be no gov
ernment partnership with favored
classes His advice has been disregard
ed and now behold the consequence
The government mere tool of the New
York banks. and both old parties legis-
lating for the interest of the money class
and directly against the people.
