were given control of the executive
department and of both branches of
congress.
The trusting democrat voted the
ticket straight and now looks over
the appropriation bills that were
passed by the first session Of the SD
congress only to find that the appro-
priations exceed those of the SD con-
gress by four millions, and was ahead
of the 51st congress, the extravaganza
sbilion dollar congress-" by over
twenty seven millions. The trusting
democrat has paid dear for his
whistle.
The faithful my-father- bcfore-me-
was deposited his ticket with un-
shaken faith and with tears of joy in
his eyes read Of the glorious victory
Of his party the next morning, He
felt assured that now the cowardly
makeshift would be brushed aside
and silver be restored to its ancient
privilege, increasing the price of his
cotton as it increased IN value itself.
But instead of restoring free silver
coinage, a special session closed the
doors Of the mint to silver altogether,
and falling prices have changed his
tears of joy to tears of sadness. The
faithful my-father- before-me-was has
paid dear for his whistle.
The dear mossback marched to
the polls and voted for the party OF
promises. TIE toted the torch in the
procession which celebrated the vic
tory and waited for the coming of
the good time when the state should
be flooded with wildcat money. He
is waiting yet and begins to think he
paid pretty dear for his whistle.
The honest farmer was persuaded
to vote the democratic ticket He
felt light of heart when it became a
certainty that at last the party had
the chance to redeem its pledges.
His labor was lightened by hope, for
now class laws would be repealed,
the price of the articles he bought
would be reduced while at the same
time his cotton would bring better
price. He built airy castles Of a
bright home without a mortgage, of
a dear wife not saddened with care,
of his children going to school in
stead of being put into the cotton
patch. But his castles are shattered.
Instead of 10 cent cotton the price
has almost come down to 5 cents and
is still going lower; the price of his
sugar has been increased, so has his
bagging and ties, so have his state
taxes. Sadly he RELIES that he
misplaced his trust when he put it in
the democratic party. lie has paid
dear for his whistle.
The democrats now claim that
their contract was for four years, and
having carried out two-thirds Of
their promises, they must have
another chance to carry out the re-
mainder. Another whistle is for
sale. Those who bought before can
buy again if they are satisfied with
the way the democratic party has
redeemed its pledges.
But they will pay very dear for
their whistle if they do.

A Honse Divided Sc.

The law, by the way, doesn't say
that the seigniorage shall be coined;
it says that it ''shall be accounted for
and paid into the treasury" leaving
the matter Of coinage to the discre-
ton of the secretary. AS Mr.. Cleve-
land vetoed the seigniorage bill, it is
not likely that Mr.. Carlisle will I'M
dertake its Characterization.
Everybody who is inforIaed on the
subject knows that the Secretary OF
the Treasury is coming the seignior.
age and is using it for the benefit of
the country. Only the enemies of
the administration and those who
wish to fool the people assert that he
is not dong so.-Journal.

The Hon. Hoke Smith in his
speeches fingers fondly over the al
legged fact that previous to the Civil
war we had less money in circulation
than now.
Mr.. Smith should tell his audi
ences that until 1857 the money of
foreign nations was current here, and
was legal tender. Counting this, in
addition to our own stock, we had
more money in circulation in 1857,
and previous years, than we have at
this time.
He should also tell them that the
Act Of 1857, which shut out from us
the money of other nations, caused a
panic in this country, because the
cutting off of the supply of money
resulted in a tremendous shrinkage
Of values-such as we are now suf-
fering from. Before this panic was
over, the war came on and the gov
eminent was compelled to increase
the amount of money by issuing
Treasury Notes.
After the war, in 1866 for instance,
we had wonderfully good times be-
cause the country was plentifully
supplied with money.
The government began to burn up
the paper money at the command OF
the Bondholder and the National
Banker, and prices began to fall.
Having destroyed most of the
governments paper money, these
same heartless manipulators Of the
money market began to make raid
on silver.
Hence prices have continually
fallen, simply because the supply Of
money continues TO grow, relatively

What are State Bonds?

In effect they create a mortgage
upon all the property in the State
They bear interest and they pay no
tax, and the interest paid to the
Bondholder comes out of the taxes
of other folks.
Has Georgia issued any Bonds
lately?
Yes, in 1892 the dear old demo-
cratic party issued 100000 in
bonds, thus putting bran new
mortgage upon all your taxable
property. Who bought the Bonds?
That estimable gentleman, Mr..
Gunby Jordan, whom Governor

Commissioner.
What else is Mr.. Jordan, besides
being very lucky man?
1st. He is President Of National
Bank, and a Railroad Magnate of
robust proportions.
End. He had the use of some
100000 of your tax money free of
interest.
3rd. He was the fortunate client
of the Hon. W. A. Little, the then
Attorney-General of Georgia.
4th. He enjoyed the Jeffersonian
privilege of stepping into the State
Treasurer's Office any day he was
short of cash and getting pocket
change to the gentle melody of S10,-
600, or $4,000, or $4,000, out of
your cash box.
9Th. lie could buy cotton or bonds
whenever he felt like it, with your
money, and after turning neat
penny by way of profit could return
your money, when he felt like it,
without payment Of interest.
9th. He could buy the entire issue
of the Bonds of 1892, on which you
must pay him four and half per
cent interest, and he could pay for
those bonds, If he felt like it, with
your money on which he paid you
no interest at all.
If you don't believe there is such
thing as being born lucky you just
light good fat pine knot and devote
few minutes of your after supper
leisure to a solemn and awe struck
contemplation of the "Curious for
tunes and wonderful Career of Mr..
Gunby Jordan, National Banker,
Railroad Commissioner, State Bond
holder, Railroad President, Deposi-
tory of State Taxes, and Cotton
buyer ith-State-money."
If Mr.. Jordan does not swallow
the whole State some fine morning
it will be on account of the prema-
ture collapse of his digestive organs
Go it, Jordan!
The Atlanta journal says that the
new Tariff Bill is lowering the price
of merchandise.
Is it the Tariff which is also low
ering the price of cotton?
The hardest job on this earth is
that of getting an average democrat
to realize that the shutting off of the
supply of money is one reason why
the people cannot get more of it.
If the government makes the
money, the people can get hold of
it. If the government does not
make it, the people cannot get it.
The South is full of merchants
and farmers who will never admit
the force of this little fact till they
have had a round or two with the
lawyers and the sheriff.

ADJUSTMENTS,

Inc National Lyceum Course.-A short
'ine ago the National Lyceum course of
CONCERTS ana lectures was announced-a
course or ten entertainments to be given
curing the coming winter at popular prices.
AT that time no program was named,
'housh the managers of the entertainments
gave assurance that there would be only
nrst-class amusements. Since the first an
Eouncement a list of nearly three times the
length OF the proposed program has been
made, and the readers Of The Star were
asked Saturday to express their preferences
among the entertainments. The object in
making up this long list was to give the
Washington public a chance to indicate its
cnolce IN the making of the program. All
the attractions named are good, but some
may De more popular than others. 1t Is the
intention or the managers of the National
Lyceum bureau to make up a program as
nearly as possible in accordance with the
wishes OF the subscribers to the concerts
and lectures. Among the lecturers named
are Walter Damrosch. who has made a
great hit in New York and Philadelphia
with MS lecture explanatory of the Wagner
music drama; Prof. DeMotte, who gives an
Illustrated scientific lecture; Prof. Babcock,
VINO lectures on the applications of pho
Biography; Prof. Raglan, who is described as
Stoddhrd's only rival in the description of
foreign lands, and the musical attractions
include the New York Philharmonic Club,
probably the best concert combina ton of
its class in America; the Victor Herbert
Quintet Club, the Franz Wilszek Concert
Company, the Lineff Russian Choir, which
sang in the Music Hall at the worlds fair
for a long season; Ollie Torbett, the we'll
known woman violin player. and her COM
pany; and a great many other excellent
musical combinations. The course will be-
gin about the middle Of November the
LIST of December and will continue at inter-
walls of two weeks. Care will be taken that
none of the concerts shall occur on the
meeting night of any local societies or on
Thursday night, which is prayer meeting
night among the churches.

For temporary and economical protec-
ton against fire for Tenleytown, 1 think
the suggestion of DR.. Sheckels, as con-
tanned in The Star of the 10th instant, a
good one. But instead OF having the truck
and engine sidetracked somewhere near
the terminus of the electric car line,
think the power house being midway, would
be the place, If an arrangement could be
made with the railroad company to store
the engine and truck there. 1t could be at
tached to Il car quickly and be run either
to Te1leytown or toward Georgetown. The
truck could be constructed so as to make
easy to run the engine off by hand and be
conveyed, il need be. to Fort Reno, or to
dwellings near by. There would be no need

wanted to show the public that he was

ed all day. Rare palms and plants were in
profusion, and the effect under the soft
glare OF the electric lights was decidedly
attractive. Bouquets of choice cut flowers
were distributed to the lady visitors, and
a luncheon of coffee, sandwiches and ice
cream was served to all on the second
floor. The popularity of Mr.. Moore's es-
Enlistment was made manifest by the
throng which surged through the store
