JEFFERSON CITY IN 1894.

The year 1894 should provo an
cventful one for jefferson City.
The inauguration of the bridge
scheme in 1898 should find active
construction taking place in 1894.
The realization of the hopes of the
people. resulting from the cOnstruc-
ton Of a bridge. would cause an eX.
| pansion and stimulation to jefferson
CITY enterprises such as has never
before been exhibited in its history.
II would make every citizen and
property.owner feel independent Of
interests that have heretofore been
hanging like a mill stone, throttIing
every energy and every hope for fu-
ture greatness. There is no question
but that the construction of this
bridge, which has now become an
absolute necessity, and cannot be
abandoned, will bring to jefferson
City new enterprises, new manufac-
turing establishments, a new popu-
@lation, and possibly u railroad from
the south.
The year 1894 is, therefore, to be
one of the most important in the
history of this city. What is done
this year will either put the town on
the high-road to propesrity or rele.
gate it to the rear in the progress
among II sister cities. We hope
that the expections of many of our
people in regard to the future will be
realized. We hope that every en-.
ergy of the entire population of the
city viii be bent towards the Z
pli-hmcot of the things that every
one knows are necessary for our
own future and our own safety.

THEY WANTED A "CHANGE.

The people gave expression a
the polls at the last election TO the
effect that they wanted a change
They emphasized this expression by
an overwhelming majority for the
Democratic ticket.
One year ago Dunn's Review
summed up the business Of 1892 az
follows. The most prosperous
year eve known in business closes
to-day, with strongly favorable indi.
cations for the future" That is the
Republican: that i, the condition
that the Democratic party found the
country in when they took charge
of it, Now lock ut the other side
of the picture-the Democratic side.
The same paper in summing up the
business Of 1898 says: Starting
with the largest trade ever known.
mills crowded with work, and all
business stimulated with high hopes.
the year 1893 has proven, in sudden
s~tringency of trade, in commercial
disasters and depression of indus
tries, the worst in fifty years" How
do the people like the Democratic
record? Was that the kind of
" change" that they wanted.

there are honest railway men IN
America, and bonds that are almost
gilt.edged in thsjr character but the
balance is heavily the other way
This time, however, the dirty ousiI
ness (recoivorsbips and failures0
has been rather over.donc, and pe
British goose is not likely to layIany
more golden eggs. II the people
have any sense left they will give o
wide berth to everything American
and especially to the manipulated
treacherous securities Of American
railways"
Now we suggest to We injured in
noccnce in Wall stpGet, that since
the government has come to a gold
standard, they ought to perform
their part of the contract and see
that the English investor gets hi:
dollar for his American securities.
In other words, it is plain that Eng
land IS kicking harder against manip'
ulated, treacherous Wal. street than
it is against the silver dollar.

PRISON LABOR,

The signing of Il new contract
by Warden Pace with the Strauss
Harness Co, on substantially the
same terms as the old, indicates that
there is to be no friction between
the state and the contractors. The
wisdom of increasing the price of
convict labor has always been doubted
by the disinterested citizen who has
any knowledge Of the value Of that
class of labor. While two or three
firms have made money in that in.
stitution, the record of the contract
system in the past, barring the few
exceptions, is a record of failures.
They need not be enumerated here.
Is the names of the firms that
have failed are familiar to the cit
zens of Jefferson City. There are
many drawbacks to convict labor,
and the state is to be congratulated
on being able to utilize it at the
price of fifty cents per day.

ENGLISH CAPITAL.

During The discussion of the re.
peal Of the purchasing clause of the
Sherman law the capitalists Of New
York, who have been in the habit of
foatlng millions upon millions Of
American securities in the London
markets, complained that the English
investor had refused to invest fur
Their in American bonds and railroad
securities, for fear that they would
be paid in deprecated currency
silver.
They sent up Il sanctimonious howl
against the government for sustain
ing one of the great metals of the
world, They were crying for Il dol
lar, an actual dollar, Il gold dollar
something that would not and could
not depreciate in value. They
wanted to give the English investor
q bond lined on the inside and on the
outside, and all the way through.
with gold, and nothing but gold.
Ihey were very honest. They did
not want to cheat the investors of
Lombard street out of a nickel.
That is what they said. They wanted
their investments TO be perfectly
and absolutely safe. Since the re-.
peal OF the purchasing clause of the
Sherman law Lombard street has
been telling another tale. 1t seems
that they would be thankful il they
could get eve a silver dollar. Tb,y
would not be at all particular about
gold.

PiJHY, POINTED AND PERTINENT.

hJaY, POINTED AND PERTINENT.
The congressman who would vote
for protection to his own district
while denying it to other districts is
not worthy TO be called an American.
Protection is either good or bad for
all.
If England's trade continues to
fall off American free traders may
prepare to hear that British states
men are going in for protection.
There are good reasons for the
belief that Gov. Waite is more kinds
of a damphool than any mar living.
and there are other Populist govern
ors, too.
Mr.. Cleveland would probably be
glad to avail himself of the Mikado
of Japan's recipe for getting rid of
a troublesome Legislative body, if he
could.
The song that is now most sung is
tho starving poor of old England"
There are men in congress who are
doing their bost to make the song
applicable to young America as well.
1t will be absolutely impossible,
owing to the absence of raw material,
50 to speak, for 1894 to produce a
shrinkage of values equal to that
which took place in 1893.
1t is cx.Judge Maynard now and

Honesty is not dead, although May
nard is not the first Democratic poll
tician TO act as though it were,
Now that the New York legislature
is Republican, Senator Hill will have
less business in Albany.
The ghost Of the lost values of
1893 haunts Grover Cleveland, and
he imagines that it is an assassin.
Perhaps the proposition to move
the headquarters of the Knights of
Labor to Washington is the first
step towards a missionary campaign
against congress. .
Mr.. Cleveland would doubtless en-.
joy swapping that Hawaiian policy
for a "yaller" dog, and then shoot
ing the dog.
Uncle Charlie Dana's resolutions
to continue his campaign tariff edu-
cation is a striking example of Dem
ocratic pluck under difficulties.
The governor Of Florida knows
how to be emphatic without being
p%rofane. Perhaps he might be in
duced to take a class of governors
and teach them the knack.
