A More Cheerful Outlook

The trade journals report a steady in
crease in the volume Of business and a
more cheerful feeling among the manu-
facturcrs Mills that closed when the
hard times began last summer are re
lighting the fires in their furnaces, and
the army Of unemployed people is being
reduced. The return of prosperity is
slow, however, and the profits of business
are not yet as encouraging as its volume.
II is pretty well understood now what
changes viii be made in the tariff. 1t is
not believed that the Senate will make
many changes in the Wilson bill. 1t seems
TO be pretty well satisfied with
it as it came from the finance committee.
The conference committee will not make
any radical changes, if expressions of
leading members of the ways ana means
committee count for anything. The feel
ing that the lines upon which the new
tariff are to be fixed are about settled, is
what is giving new life to all kinds of
business
Prosperity will not come with rush.
IT viii come gradually, and the country
will be enjoying it in its fullest measure
even before the Croakers cease to talk
about hard times
just now there is, disposition to blame
the Democratic party for the business
disasters from which The country has
suffered and the dullness of business from
which it is still suffering, but when good
times are fully restored the people will
place the resi- onsibility for the troubles
they endured where it belongs Inquiry
will show them that the season of depres-
sion through which they passed was
brought on by the Mckinley tariff and
the Sherman silver law The Mckinley
tariff stimulated manufacturing for a
time but it shut our manufacturers out
Of foreign markets and overstocked the
home market. The consequence was that
prices fell below the profit line and the
mills had to close their doors until the
surplus products were consumed.
The Sherman silver law was an effort
to make the people take the product of
the silver mines at price above its true
value, and the result was money panic
The Mckinley tariff is a republican
measure and so was the Sherman silver
law
The people discover the truth slowly
but they find it eventually. Before the
end of the Cleveland administration they
will understand that the Republican
party is responsible for all their troubl
of the past year or two.

The Presidents responsibility.

The seigniorage bill places upon tAo
President a very grave responsibility
Vast interests depend upon his action in
respect to it. Public sentiments divided
as to whether or not it is a wise measure,
and millions of people are waiting anx-
iously for his decision. The business and
financial interests in all parts of the coun-
try are against IT, Many congressman
and local politicians favor IT, Even the
cabinet is divided as to whether or not it
should be vetoed.
The President. therefore, must make
up his mind without outside help.
That he wishes 10 do what is
best for the whole country there Is no
doubt. But what is best' That is a
question that is not easily determined. If
he signs the bill he risks iniuring the
credit of the country, and the country
cannot afford to have its credit injured.
The moment there is doubt about that,
gold would be exported at rapid rate.
The hundred Of millions of dollars OF our
securities that are held. in Europe would
be thrown upon the market, and gold
would have TO be exported to pay for
worth less than 30 cents. The dumping
of such vast amount of securities upon
the market and the expectation Of millions
Of dollars of gold would create panic,
and prices of all kinds Of securities would
fall so rapidly that the stability of our
financial institutions would be endan-
gered
1t is clear that the credit Of the govern
ment must be upheld. No doubt of
its ability to maintain the parity between
the gold and silver dollar must be allowed
to creep into the public mind.
But would the coinage of what is called
the seigniorage Of the silver bullion in the
treasury, as provided by the seigniorage
bill, create such a doubt A large major
ity of congressman say it would not. But
are they as capable of forming an opinion
as to whether it would or not as those
who devote their whole time to financial
mattersl Are they not influenced in a
great degree by the sentiment in favor of
a greater volume of currency which they
believe prevails in their respective states?
While the President must give due
weight to the views of congressman and
to what congress has done, he must, after
all, judge for himself what the effect of
his signing the bill would be. Even
if he thought that by signing it
he would avert grave dan
ger to his party he would be in duty
bound to veto it if he believed a veto
would save the country from great
financial disaster. OF one thing the
country can rest assured, and that is that
the President is going to be guided by
what he thinks the higest interest of the
people demand. If he signs the bill it
will be because he is convinced that
more silver will not bring disaster If
he dicides in favor of veto, it will b.
because he is satisfied that the addition
of more silver to the currency will injurc
the country's credit

Watching England.

There are indications that the opinion
prevails at the state department that it
is necessary to keep watchful eye upon
England. There is yet doubt as to Eng
land purpose in retaining at Bluetelds
the military force which was landed
there from one of her warsnips recently.
In view of the fact that the force was not
withdrawn when quiet was restored
there creates a suspicion that England
has intentions in respect to the Mosquito
Reservation that have not been yet fully
revealed
1t is understood also that the state de-
partment has recently received from Min
lister Willis ut Honolulu intelligence to
the effect that England has designs upon
the Hawaiian Islands. and that to thwart
them it will be necessary to have an
efficient naval force at Honolulu. No in
timation has been given out as to what
England has done, or proposes TO do, that
iustifes Minister Willis fears, but that
the Indignation he has furnished is
considered to be of Importance is inferred
from the fact that the ablest diplomat
among our admirals has been ordered to
take command of the Pacific squadron,
although he has but lately returned from
sea duty, and another admiral had been
assigned to that post.
1t is further intimatcd that the Bering
sea matter is likely to give further
trouble because of the apparent indiffer.
ence Of England to the duty imposed upon
her by the decision that was rendered by
the board of arbitration at Paris 1t is
the purpose Of our government to carry
into effect that decision even if it has to
do it single hGnled 1t is to cur interest

On the battlefield Of Antietam, says the
Philadelphia Times, Mr.. Mcclure met Gen.
William J. Palmer then captain and
strongly urged him not to continue his move

Virginia, but the gallant young soldier gave
no promise as to what he would be likely to

the Potomac he was again in Lees camp, and
brought back important information to Gen.
Mcclellan. Again he returned and entered
the confederate lines, and when he did not
had been captured, and would probably be
executed as spy. He had Leen captured,
was tried and condemned as a SPY and SEN
fenced to execution, but he was saved by a
clever newspaper device determined upon
after a conference in this city between Presi-
dent j. Edgar thompson, of the Pennsyl-
Yania railroad. Col. Scott and Mr.. Mcclure
Thompson took special interest in Palmer,
as he had been his secretary and was much
attached to him. 1t was decided that Wash
lngtOn dispatches should be prepared for all
OF the Philadelphia morning papers, an
nounc1ng the arrival at the capital of Capt.
William j. Palmer. stating in what particular
lines of the enemy he had operated, and add
ing that he had brought much important
public at the time. These dispatches ap-
peared the next morning in all the Phladel-
phla papers prominently displayed. and of
course, reached the southern lines within
forty eight hours. The result was that Capt.
Palmer identity was never established in
Richmond and his execution was thus sus-
pended. In a little while, when some prls-
cancy made in the list of the exchanged men
by death. Palmers friends had him take
the place and name OF the dead soldier and
he thus escaped and returned to the service.

Rrazlpe Trouble Not Ended.

1t was thought when Da Cana deserted
his shin and forts in Rio harbor that the
Brazilian war would be speedily ended.
The thought was amistake. There was
revolution in the southern states of Sac
Paulo. Rio Grande do Sui and Parana be-
fore De Mello led the navy into revolt at
Rio, and that movement is now stronger
and more threatening than it has been at
any time heretofore. IL has an army of
20, coo to $4,000 men, has an established
goyernment at Desterro, has an album
dance of arms and ammunition, has CON
troll of the custom houses of the southern
ports, has navy as strong as or stronger
than that controlled by Peixoto, and is
impregnably fixed in the three states it
holds. The president of the provisional
government, Lorena, is said to be man
of splendid executive ability, and his
forces are commanded by generals su-
perior to those of the federal troops.
When Admiral Mello sailed south from
Rio he took with him the battleships
Aquidaban and Republica, and the cruis-
ers Iris, Meteor, Uranus and Esperenza.
Besides these ships ne has in his feet
now in the service of the revolutionists in
the south, two an-going torpedo boats
and six transports. These fourteen ships
are said to be entirely able 10 cope with
any feet President Piexoto can possibly
send against them. And they are all
provided with whatever munitions they
may need. Only few days ago Mello.
with his big battleship, oyerhauled and
captured ship en- route to Rio and laden
with krupp guns, Mansur rifles, smoke
less powder and 10000 cartridges, CON
signed to the FieXoto government. The
value of the cargo is estimated at
$780, 600.
Tho revival by Peixoto of the DEGREES
of 1888 and 1851 authorizing the execution
of insurgents without trial is notice to
the revolutionists that they haze nothing
to.expect but death in the event of defeat,
hence they will be spurred to greater
efforts to win victories. They will hence
forth fight for their lives as well as for
what they claim to be their constitutional
rights. Furthermore, the intolerant
spirit displayed by the President in the
revival of the DEGREES is likely to arouse
sympathy for those against W HON the re-
vival is directed. There is talk also, to
the effect that preparations are being
made to set aside the results of the recent
presidential election and establish Peix-
OTTO as a dictator for term of ten years.
1t is an open question if q strong dictator
ship, under a good and patriotic man, for
about that length of time, would not be a
good thing for the country. AT the same
time, it was fear of a military dictator
ship that sent so many Braziliaus into the
ranks Of the revolutionists, and it is
pretty safe to say that if dictatorship
should be established the armies of the
south would be greatly augmented by peo-
| pie from the north.
