The most singular case of counterfeit
ing that ever fell under the notice of
civilized man is probably that of certain
silver dollars now in circulation. These
dollars have the exact amount Of silver
in them that is contained in the standard
dollar Of the United States, yet they are
worth about 40 cents less than that dol
lar, because in the bullion market of the
world United States silver dollar is
worth as bullion something like 40 cents
less than its face value. The question
has been asked whether the making of
these silver coins of the exact weight and
fneness Of the government dollar is pun
ishable under existing laws. It certain
ly is under that clause of the constitu-
ton which forbids the coming of money
by any other power than the federal gov
eminent. Any money otherwise coined
even if it were gold dollars, would be
counterfeit.

Jerome Spencer and AL. Craig of
Livonia came over last Monday and

Walker Bros. took in 100 head of

and had to drive them to Elk River
and ship on the N. P. as the Great
Northern is tied up.
Since the unpleasantness on the rail-
roads Walker Bros. have received
their goods by team. Teamsters that
can get loads both ways can haul
freight as cheap as the railroads.

Our Manufacturing Industries.

The most important manufacturing
interest in the United States is the tex
tile industry. The capital invested in
the spinning and weaving of cotton,
wooden and silk goods amounts to over
$500, 100000. Three-fourths of this CAP
ital is invested in the manufacture of
cotton goods.
Next in value to the textile fabric in
dustry comes the lumber and sawmill
business. It alone absorbs $496, 1886, 1858
of capital and employs nearly 100000
men. The industry whose annual prod
ucts are most valuable is, iron and steel
manufacture, which turns out annually
$3.50, 1854, 34S worth Of goods. Closely
following it, however, is the meat slaugh-
tering and packing industry, with $780,
Gil, 1858. Twenty-Five industries produce
over $4,000 100000 worth of goods every
year.
One would naturally suppose that
whisky making would be somewhere
near the head Of the list, but it is at the
bottom, with product of $104, 1877 1862
It is to be remem bered, though, that beer
making and whisky making are classed
in the census report as separate indus
tries. Beer alone to the amount of 1882,
731, 622 is made in this country every
year. If we add the value of the bee1
and whisky products together, the two
united will stand No. 6 in the list of thu
great manufacturing industries of thu
United States.

British Political Parties.

DElClSl1 r O1lClC0A = tsCVlOSs
Justin cCarthy tells us in The North
American Review that when he first be-
came acquainted with the house of COM
mons there were only two parties there
Liberals and Tories. The Liberals
were beginning to divide into Wings and
and Radicals. Now Liberals and Tories
face each other still, but besides these
there are also the Irish party, the Scotch
party, the Welsh party, the labor party,
Che woman suffrage party, the tenn per-
ance party and the colonial party, all
already more or less influential and gain
ing in power. The Scotch and Welsh
parties are an outgrowth of the Irish par
ty and are aiming for exactly what that
organization demands-home rule. They
will ultimately be satisfied with nothing
less.
The Labor party is perhaps more rap
idly growing than any other. Mr.. Nc
Carthy borrows an Americanism and
says, CLEARLY the principle of labor rep
resentation has caught on" The leader
of the party in the commons is John
Burns. McCarthy's description of this
famous leader sounds like an eloquent
bit from one of the novelist's stories:
have great admiration and respect for Mr..
John Burns and firm belief in him. He has
about him the charm of strong, self reliant
manhood. He is above all things man. You
can see this in his dark, soft, cleaning eyes
They are eyes which invite confidence. John
Burns is a working engineer who has led a toll
er's life, af1oat and ashore and under various
conditions. He has worked along those mys-
FERROUS African rivers which are associated in
the minds of most of US with the explorings OF
Stanley and of Emin Pasha. He has worked
in London sheds and yards. He Is fine and q
powerful speaker and can control vast meet.
ing of workingmen with irresistible force. He
is great democratic influence, and political
parties and social organizations can hardly
reckon without him. He seldom speaks in the
house of commons, but when he does speak he
speaks we'll and goes straight to the point. He
never speaks but on some subject which he
thoroughly understands, and about which he
has something important and direct to say
He has fine and even thrilling voice, and one
always feels that some day when his time
comes and his own question is uppermost he
will make great speech.

Kansas 1, and New York.

Some time since the New York Even.
ing Post made this. editorial remark:
1--WE do not want any more states till we
can civilize Kansas" This unkind say
ing arouses the ire of Mr.. J. w. Gleed,
q citizen of the fair Grasshopper State,
and he comes back at The Post hand
somely in The Forum in a paper enti-
tied IT'S New York More Civilized Than
Kansas Y
He consults statistics and clinches his
statements with figures and comes out
triumphantly in the showing that New
York cannot begin to stand alongside
Kansas in the contest for real true blue
civilization with no nonsense about it.
Only one institution Of Kansas Mr..
Gleed is disposed to apologize for, and
that is the Populist party. But he tells
US the ''many conscientious and thought
full adherents" of that new party have
seen the error of their ways, a statement
which is hereby referred to members of
the Populist party in Kansas for COM
ment. "The Populists are and always
have been in the minority" writes Mr..
Gleed, which reminds one of the famous
defense, 1T was such very little one. I"
The writer recalls to his readers the fact
that the election Of Mr.. PETER was one
of the few senatorial elections in the
country that were absolutely free from
bribery. Before PETER was elected SEN
ator he gave no money and promised no
Offices.
New York has four times the popula-
ton of Kansas. With this she has 20
times as many paupers and 1850 fewer
miles of railroad. With four times the
population New York has nearly nine
times as many convicts in the peniten-
tiaries. In Kansas four-ffths of all
children between IS and 7-years of age
are enrolled in the schools New York
city less than one-half. All the same,
no cat without collar is allowed to run
at large in any city in New York, and
we venture to say that Kansas has never
yet passed a cat collar law. Against
that fact what does it matter that Kan
sas spends more money proportionally
on her public schools than New York
does?
In the following paragraph Mr.. Gleed
strikes out from the shoulder:
Society in Kansas no doubt lacks ritual and
regalia. Mr.. Astor. formerly of New York,
has moved to London, bought newspaper
and baited his hook for peerage or its equiv
alent. He has abandoned his native country.
There is no complaint about this. But Mr..
Aston speaks slightingly of Chicago because
maids instead of men answer the doorbells
| there. What would Mr.. Astor say Of Kansass
| There great many refined, cultivated, intel
ligent ladies, heads of households, answer their
own doorbells, as did Mr.. Astor's grandmother
no doubt If she had a doorbell. In New, York
there are thousands Of coachmen and footmen
and housemaids and buffers, all clad in livery
to distinguish them from their superiors. In
Kansas they neither uniform the domestics
tip the walters nor amputate the horses tails.

Shall the State Give Men Work?

Shall the State Give Men Work?
This question is actually soon to be de-
cided by the referendum in Switzerland.
Thus far has state socialism, or nation
alism, as its adherents in America call
it, progressed in Europe.
Socialists declare it makes great DIFF
ference how one looks at this question.
It is recognized among civilized ma
tions that the state must give aims;
hence our vast array of poorhouses and
charity refugees. The advocates Of the
state labor idea say if the state owes
charity to it's INDECENT citizens, then it
also owes the labor which will keep them
from becoming objects of charity.
Some nice questions Of both logic and
ethics are involved here. The Swiss
socialists declare, further, that the labor
given by the state must not be consid-
cred at all as an aims. That was how Bis
marck looked at it in his famous move
for state employment, but that is all
wrong, these advanced thinkers affirm.
The proffered labor from the state is the
''right" Of the citizen.
In the way of the practical execution
of their plans, in the extremely improba-
BILE case Of the adoption by Switzerland
of the state labor idea, the advocates of
it would begin by providing state en-
ployment bureaus and labor bourses.
But the issue to which all these ideas
will come sooner or later is this, Shall
the state take hold of the great indus.

the fruit of all labor as equitably as
