The Gold Reserve and Ordinary Ex.
penscs
Senator Plat, OF Connecticut, figures
that the treasury should have more
than twice the present gold reserve. 1t
has SOL 600 900 aud should have s65, 0oo..
900 more II the Connecticut senator's
figures be correct He suggests shat
this sum OF s85,0O0,0OO has been used
for current expenses, a use Of the gold
which he thinks is not contemplated by
tho specie resumption act.
Tho case then stands this way: The
administration has drawn on the gold
reserve to pay ordinary expenses and
issues more bonds to feplenish the gold
reserve, which II is Just as likely to use
again for the same purpose 80 long as
there is q shortage in the revenues.
This Is beating the devil around the
stump.
There Is no authority to sell bonds to
meet the ordinary expenses OF the gov
eminent, and the admin stratfon would
not dare to reach its object by that
short cut.
II President Cleveland is about to
dawn on the country as a great retormer
in finance he cannot do better than to
begin by explaining this matter to Con-
gress aud the people.

West Virginia tor Protection.


The Register, commenting on lite
tabulated returns. which seem to have
come from the Office OF the secretary OF
state, says: "rho figures indicate tina:
something like 10000 Democrats did
mot go TO the polls ut all, while a con.
siderable percentage of those who did
voted the Republican ticket"
IL is true that not all the Democrats
OF West Virginia chose the same way to
show their disgust with the policy OF
the Democratic party. Some of them
voted the Republican ticket as the best
and most striking way to utter their
protest; and of these very many will
not go back to the party OF free trade,
for they are protectionists.
Others, not yet prepared to go the
whole length, declined to vote at all. If
the number OF these be about 10000, it
shows a remarkable degree OF discon-
tent in which the free trade politicians
can find no satisfaction, for the causes
which operated this year on 10000
West Virginia Democrats will continue
to operate in 1906. There will be no
change in Democratic policy between
now and then.
This is not all. Taking the Registers
figures, which are probably official, the
Republican majority is 1880. Assum-
ing that the 10000 stay-at-home Demo-
Gratis would all have voted the Demo-
cratic ticket II they had voted at all.
West Virginia is Republican state by
at least 5000. Taking into no account
any Of the features of the recent land
slide, figuring solely on the ratio OF
growth, West Virginiais Republican by
not less than 1900. In 1892 the state
went Democratic by that much, and
that was not good year for protection.
On full vote, the issue being
aquarely joined between Republican
protection aud Democratic free trade,
West Virginia in 1895 may be relied Oh
to cast her presidential votes for the
ticket of protection by plurality of
not less than 5000. The free traders
will make Fight for the state, but they
cannot regain it il the protectionists
look we'll to their organization and
leave no points uncovered.
Free trade West Virginia never exist
ed. Democratic West Virginia has been
killed by the poison of free trade. Pro-
tectionist Westvirginia has sprung into
vigorous life.

Huggine in Oklahoma.

The morning dispatches tell an inter-
csting story OF the queer department of
big black bear out in Oklahoma.
"While picking grapes on country
road" near Guthrie, this big black bear
suddenly appeared aud attacked Miss
Anna Marlborough, hugging her go
hard il broke three OF her ribs aud
terribly lacera.ed her body"
Whether It 10 the habit OF the big
black bears of Oklahoma to pick grapes
on a country road is questionable.
Seeing that the offender was picking
grapes and that he Rugged the young
woman SO hard as to break three Of her
ribs, it is fair presumption that he
was an Oklahoma boomer in disguise.
If tho fact be established that this
sort OF thing is Of common occurrence
in that territory, there will be rush to
Oklahoma of "maidens all forlorn" from
those portions OF the country where the
women outnumber the men and only
the most attractive with comfortable
marriage portion can hope to be Rugged
hard enough to break any ribs.

A VIEW OF THE VICTORY.

An Impressiyo Aspect Is the Great Major
ity Rolled Up-The Legislatures Elected.
PkpaSGpkts Pres
There are several aspects In which
the victory gained by the Republicans
a. the polls November 6 can be viewed.
The most impressive aspect is doubt
less the enormous popular majority
rolled up. Nothing OF the kind has
ever been known in political history. A
second aspect 10 the great gains made
in congressman. These are almost az
significant as the great popular major
tiles. A third aspect is the breaking
OF the solid south, which ia alone
enough to make the election memoir.
able. In all those aspects the victory
is apparently complete and it will loug
remain O landmark in elections in this
country.
There is q fourth aspect also in which
the election may be viewed. and that is
the gains made in members of the state
legislatures All the states did not
choose legislatures this year. and in q
few there are some hoid.over members
in the senate. Returns have not come
in from all the states, but taking the
following thirteen 40 illustrations, the
Republican victory appears to be as
great in this way as in almost any other
aspect The figures give the strength oil
the two parties on joint ballot, all Pop:
ulists and Independents being counted
as Democrats. The official count may
also make a few changes in the totals,
but not enough to affect the argument

Trouble Ahead In Alabama.

There Is fine prospect OF trouble in
Alabama. Capt. Kolb, the Populist
leader. who has twice run for governor
of that state, is out in manifesto to
the people, saying that he has twice
been chosen by them to bs their gov
ernor aud as often counted OUT by the
Democrats.
Kolb insists that the frauds at the
recent election are all that gave to
Oates, his Democratic opponent, 4
plurality on the face OF the returns. He
calls attention to the refusal OF the
Democrat. in the legislature to take
any notice OF the action Of the Populist
members OF the legislature, who pro-
tested against counting tho returns
from counties in which the frauds wero
notorious, aud he calls on tho people to
assemble at Montgomery, the state cap
ital, December l, and stand by him in
his determination to take his seat.
Capt. Kolb shows cool determine.
ton to have tho seat or know tho reason
why:-"You, fellow citizens. have twice
elected me governor of this state, and
this time. by the grace Of God and the
help Of the good people of Alabama. l

OF man who believes in his cause and
is determined to assert his rights at any
cost. The stolen machinery of the state
is in the hands OF the Democrats, who
will not let go without struggle. II

fed votes at the recent election, they

Somebody in Washington who must
have had nightmare, discovers that
Tom Reed will have vigorous opposl-
ton for the speakership OF the next
house. This Is a fine article OF non.
sense.
Mr.. Reed will have a walk.over. It
will not be worth anybody's while to
oppose him, for the Republicans who
will be in the house know that they are
sent there to do business, and they
know something Of Mr.. Reeds way Of
dispatching business. The man from
Maine is go strong with his party that
it Is very doubtful whether anybody
will be so foolish as to set up light
ming rod against him.
The most probable thing is that Mr..
Reed will get the caucus nomination by
reclamation, which would be nice way
to open up the proceedings.

Here 10 total Republican gain in
members OF the legislature in thirteen
states of 439. In eight OF these states
the Republicans had majority on joint
ballot in the last legislature elected pre-.
yious to November 8. 1894, and in five
states the Democrats had a majority on
Joint ballot. But this year the Repub-
licans have a majority in every one Of
the thirteen states. These states are
not chosen because they present the
largest gains made by the Republicans
in legislators. They are taken because
fairly accurate returns have been re-
ceived from them as to the standing OF
the newly chosen legislatures. Those
from which returns are not at hand will
show as great or even greater changes in
the Republican party's favor North
Carolina, Wisconsin, Iowa. Missouri,
Kansas and all the far western sta es
chose legislatures with greatly increased
Republican majorities.
1t is interesting to note how these
changes would affect the United States
senate il all these new legislatures could
elect senators in sympathy with the
party that now controls them. II this
could be done the Democrats and Popu-
lists would at once lose eighteen men,
bers and the Republicans would gain
the same number. This gain with the
filling OF the three vacancies aud the
one Republican senator who will be
chosen from North Carolina, added to
the thirty.seven senators the Republic
cans now have, would make the next
senate stand fifty-nine Republicans to
twenty-nine Democrats, or exactly two
thirds Republican. This with the two
thirds majority they have in the house
OF representatives would enable the Re-
publicans to pass any law over the
Presidents veto. It's due to the con-
servative character Of the government
that the Republican party is kept from
reaping at once the full benefit of the
great victory it won at the polls this
year.
