According to the philosophy Of q
writer In the Cleveland Plain Dealer,
the return of general prosperity would
hurt the cause of the reconciliation
OF silver not a ittle-perhaps set II
back until the next period Of hard
times. 1T is In times Of adversely"
he argues. "that the people see most
clearly and feel most sorely the OPP
pressive features of governmental

study political economy. but when
prosperity reigns. when everybody has
money, It is not easy to convince men
that implanted In the government sys-
tenn is an ubiquitous policy which soon
er or later will cause a return OF finan-
cial disaster. Take. for example. Pitts
burg a few days ago. when the excite
ment about oil was at its height. A
free silver enthusiast who visited Pitts
burg at that time told me that he could
not get the people to listen to him.
The price of oil rapidly advanced,
things were booming and no one want
ed to discuss finance"
But IT is the contention of the silver
men that the principal cause of the
hard times is the demonstration of
silver, and IL this contention is right,
a return to general and permanent
prosperity is contingent upon the res
toration of silver to its proper func-
lions as money. This is a big country.

England. But that the country can
be restored to a perfectly healthy con-
dition by gold monometallism we do
not believe. II 1t can be. the silver
men might as well throw up their
hands and quit.
No universal period of prosperity
need be anticipated so long as the in

that something is going to interpose

good times" again. and in general II
will see better times than those that
have prevailed since the summer of

of Imprisonment has only a few more

Steam and Electricity.

In an article on "will the Electric
Motor Supersede the Steam Locomo-
tive?" in Scribner's for May, It Is
stated that in the United States there
are more than $50 electric railways, op-
and $4,000 cars, and representing a cap
ftal investment of more than $500 0O0,-
900. The electric motor is superseding
steam in some places and under some
conditions fast enough. but the writer
in Scribner's does not think IL win dis
place steam altogether. at least not
in the immediate future. The extent
and nature OF the traffic viii always be
a governing factor. Given the re-
quired conditions OF frequent trains
and large traffic. and there can be no
question as to the superior economy of
the transmission and application of
power by electrical appliances. But

pie matter TO propel a short train, say
of two cars. by electricity at a speed
