THE BRAKE STILL on.

The expectation cherished by our re-
publican friends that the country would
be Immediately rewarded for vote OF
confidence in them by prompt and I'M
mistakable improvement in business, is
not being fulfilled. There is no improve
ment, unmistakable. spurious, or other
wise. II anything, the reverse is the
case, though a full month has elapsed
since the elections. While not shar-
ing the sanguine hopes alluded to, We
have possessed our soul in patience, con-
scious of too things. First, that the
cause oil the existing rotten state OF
affairs lies deeper than any change OF
tariff. Second, that the people must be
brought to a full realization of this cause
by the only teacher. experience. The
ultimate cause Of the present state OF
things is an inadequate supply OF money,
aud firm ground will never be reached
till the monetary position Of the country
Is improved. We have all of us, at times,
looked at picture, in which we were
conscious that there was something
wrong, radically wrong, and yet We failed
to distinguish where the fault lay. We
have examined feature, limb, and
found it correct; and it was not until We
stepped back TO the point from which We
got the true view OF the whole effect, that
we suddenly found that the proportion,
the weight, was false. aud wondered how
the evident fact had so long escaped us
Let us suppose that the designer OF the
Eitiel tower had planned his masterpiece
in such a way that its diameter at the tor
had been too nearly the same as that al
the base. The tower might have been
pushed up to its full height provided il
WAS not subjected to any unusual strain
A close examination might fail to detect
any flaw in the plan. Each girder and
beam might seem we'll proportioned and
graceful. But when the storm came and
beat on the structure it would fall. II
carried little higher a puff of air would
wreck it. little higher still and il
would fall of its own weight. So with
our towering system OF credit exchange
1t has been pushed to such height now
that any disturbance of the financia
atmosphere topples it down. The engin
GERS deny that the superstructure is tot
big for the base. They ascribe the top

The Tacoma Ledger asserts that the
Post. Intelligencer has been sold to Judge
Bond, of Seattle, whom it fscetious ly
calls "Dehenture Bond" but no such
sale has taken place. The Judge 10 rich,

P..I. for the purpose of combating with
Governor McGraw for the senatorship in
1896 and he is said to have made an
offer of $4,000 In excess of anyone else
for the property. but it 10 now definitely

10 q thousand minor causes. They are
supposed to be experts and the people
have taken their word hitherto. They
have even consented to the withdrawal
OF q very considerable portion OF the
foundation, be cause the engineers said Il
was formed Of what they declared to be
nnscientifc material. II 10 true this ma
terial had stood the test Of thousands Of
wears use, and had been, short tine be-
fore, declared by some OF these very en-
gineers to be superior to any other. Still
the people let the engineers have their
way as usual. The force Of folly could
no further go. The structure has reached
the height where (now that the founda-
ton is weskened) 1t is bound to fall OF ito
own weight, just as soon as, and every
time that it is rebuilt.
But the people are beginning to see
where the trouble is. They have tried
everything the engineers have recon-.
mended, and found that mono Of them
did any good. The leaders OF the people,
who keep their hands on the public
pulse, see that at last the people are
ready to follow them, and they are begin
ming to poinr>out the true way.
There is q great object lesson clearl y
before us. France has been free from the
terrible financial disturbance from which
We have suffered. In the present genera
ton France has had heavier blows dealt
at her than any other nation on earth,
and yet she has marched on steadily.
She had . war with Germany in
which she was disastrously defeated, at .
cost to her compared with which the
losses in Argentina and Australia, which
brought on the still existing panic and
depression, were as nothing. France
hardly bent before the terrible gale, and
sprsng erect the moment it had passed.
The present distress has not hurt her,
though she had to write off her enor-
nous investment in Panama as total
loss And why? England and America
are both Weather than France, but
France has double the money per capita
OF either. She has money supply (con-
sisting almost entirely Of gold and silver
of nearly fifty dollars per capita. We
must have more money. Good money.
Silver is good money. II is worth as
much of every product of human indus
try day AZ ever. II il not worth as
much as gold, it is true, but it is worth az
much meat, or wheat, or iron, or coal,
or cotton, a. ever. Gold has been forced
up Ito the hurt Of human industry, and
human comfort. and hsppiness) to n posi-
ton Of unspeakable tyranny. The gold
monometdiiic standard must be destroyed.

Light Shoes For Horses.

Light horses Of 1000 pounds weight,
with well shaped upright feet, should
have fore shoes weighing about one
pound each and the hind ones 10 ounces,
according to The American Agriculturist,
which makes the following computations:
If four ounces are added to each shoe,
let us see what difference it will make
