THE silver market is completely de-
moralized and the white metal reached
the lowest price ever known in the Lon
don market this week 1t went down
10 50 cents. This is the work OF the
European and American gold-b bugs who
are determined that silver shall be driv-
en- from the monetary system rs a circu-
lating medium. But there are signs OF
an awakening among the people-a sill
yer lining to the clouds. Staid old Bos-
ton has taken the initiative among east
.ern cities and organized bimetaliC
club which includes among its members
some of the leading business men OF the
city. The Spokane Review, in com
rnenting on the present situation says
The purchasing power of the gold
dollar keeps advancing with frightfu
bounds. The value has been tlched
from the silver OF the world and put in
to the gold. Thereby the money baron.

the masses who toll made poorer.
But the injustice does not stop there
The world might stand the losses thus

could continue as before. Unfortunate
~ restriction and contraction OF the
means OF exchange are followed by con
traction OF exchange itself, and this in

tinued, will bankrupt the whole world,

CURRENT COMMENT.

Minnea polls Tribune: What the coun
try wants is an American administration
and the country means to get it in the
year 1875.
Review: II turns out that we didn't
humiliate John Bull very extensively
when we had Corbett knock out Mitch
ell. The cable reports general rejoicing
in England over the result.
HALEY News-Miner: Ii judge can
enioin n man from quitting work or Civ
ing up his job, what can prevent hun
from obliging anybody to 60 to work
anywhere at ten cents day?
St. Louis Globe Democrat Ii the de M
ocrats can stand an income tax agitation
the republicans can. The income tax
bill will split the democracy and increase
the republican majority in 1896.
Butte Inter Mountain: The democra-
cy promised to do something for silver
All it has done, however, is to undo
what the republican party did. The sill
yer men had hall loaf before; they
have nothing now.
Shoshone journal: 1t will be remem-
bered by our readers that Judge Dundy,
who has issued this order restraining the
L. Z. employees from striking. made a
trip to this locality last summer and
spent some weeks fishing and hunting
up the branch line. At that time he
was furnished with special cars, ETC., by
the corporation now the beneficiary OF
his recent order.
Boise Sentinel: Senator Voorhees, now
calmly and cheekiv insults the intelli-
gence OF the American people by stating
the pretended confident belief that MS

FACTS ABOUT MORTGAGES.

Demagogic speakers have delighted to
seiterate the statement that nine-ten,hs
OF the farms in the United States are
mortgaged for all they are worth. A
careful analysis OF the data relative to
mortgages in this country, collected by
utter falsity Of the yarns spun by these
speakers, says the Chicago Tribune. /,
appears that oil every hundred farms in
this country more than 20 are paid for
while less than 80 are mortgaged. the
average mortgage represents only one
third OF the value OF the land incumber-
ed, and the sum total OF the mortgages
is hardly tenth OF the total value Of the
farms. and no more than the value OF
one years hay crop.
1t has been proven conclusiyely that
most farm-mortgagc Indebtedness was
incurred for the purpose OF buying and
improving the property. 1T appears
that four fifths cf the Indebtedness was
for this purpose Mortgages made I'M
der such circumstances show progress
and prosperity. Owing to the ability to
borrow on farm mortgages, the develop
nent OF the lands west OF the Missouri
has been far more rapid than that OF
states like Indiana and Illinois, whose
pioneer settlers found it impossible TO
borrow cent to improve or stock their
farms.
1t appears that there has been an in
crease, in the decade ending 1890, Of
1850, goo 900 in the sum total Of farm
mortgage Indebtedness in the United
States; but during those 10 years fully
600, 900 new farms were created in the
west and south, and il only half Of them
carried the average mortgage the in
crease in the debt would be accounted
for. The great jump has been in mort
cages on city and town property, which
foot up 8, 0O0, 600, 900 more than in 1880,
and are an indication OF urban growth
and prosperity.
The total Indebtedness on real estate
in the United States is but sy2 per CAPT
II. II the public debt OF the United
States, the states and the counties were
included, the per capita Indebtedness
