The Veto of The Silver Bill.

Mr. EDITOR President Cleveland,
having vetoed the bill for the coinage
of the silver seigniorage in the treas
ure, the question may be asked what
effect this will have upon the present
depressed state of business throughout
the country? In my opinion the con-
dition.of business will continue to grow
worse until the people can have II
chance to correct by the election of
another president, the almost irrepara-
bier mistake they made when by their
suffrages they elevated Mr. Cleveland
10 his present office. This will be
more than two years. My reasons for
this belief are these-while with the
veto ends the hopes of the advocates
of silver as money during Mr.. Cleve-
lands tenure of the presidential office,
yet this by no means settles the ques
ton. The silver advocates understand
that the people are with them, though
Mr.. Cleveland and the capitalists of
Wall street and Lombard street
are against them, and they will con-
tinue the fight. The result will be
the free coinage of silver in 1897, but
in the meantime the capitalists, un-
derstanding the situation, will not
loan or invest their gold-hence con-
tinuation of the present condition of
business. This is the result of electing
a president on false issues and one not
in sympathy with the views of ma
jority of the people on an important
economical question.
There is another reason which in
my opinion will cause a continuance
of the present business conditions -
The solution of the tariff question as
disclosed by the provisions of the
Wilson bill now pending and which
will doubtless be adopted bv
Mr.. Cleveland and lis party in
Congress, will not be accepted as salts
factory by the people for reasons too
many to mention in an article of any
reasonable length. This will beget
such feeling of uncertainty in the
minds of the manufacturers through
out the country that their industry,
one of the chief, will languish awaiting
a reversal of Mr.. Cleveland's policy or
that question
So we see that the great Democratic
victory of 1892, while it elevated Mr..
Cleveland to almost autocratic power,
was quite barren of beneficial results
to the people at large The Democra-
tic party gained-a victory for Mr..
Cleveland and his goldite friends on
both sides of the Atlantic, but what
did the Democratic party get? Take
the case here in Shelton. What did
the Democratic party get? Committee
man get the post office-this was vic
tory for him. But what did the labor
ers get? Well they got-a reduction
of wages, with long rests between Jobs.
What did the business men of the
country get? Unfortunately-they got
bankruptcy, in many cases, without
bankrupt law. The Democratic party
is opposed on principle to National
Bankruptcy laws.
But let us not despair AS it is
with individuals so it is with the peo-
| pie at large-the most valuable les
sons are those learned in the severe
school of experience Let us each
and all practice the strictest economy.

A SPRING STORY.
A Few Things You Ought Surely to
do at This Season.

In the spring we feel tired, languid
and debilitated. The change from cold
to warm weather causes a depression OF
the vital forces resulting in an inactive
state of the stomach, liver, bowels and
kidneys. Headache is common, and the
blood undergoes changes which greatly
debiliUate the system.
The complexion is apt to be sallow,
and dark circles gather under the eyes.
If something is not done to overcome
these conditions, they will last lndeh-
nitely and may result in severe sickness.
