CONGRESSMAN HILBORN.
He Believes the Silver Question
VIII Split the Demo-

Congressman Samuel g. Hilborn said
that it was too early to make suggestions
as to the details of the Republican Ma
tional policy. But 1 will say this" he
added, that all questions will be subordi-
mated to the currency question. That will
be the greatest issue of the day.
II think the un-American policy of the
present administration in the Hawaiian,
Venezuelan and Nicaraguan affairs has
emphasized the necessity for seeing to it
that the next administration shall have a
more decided American policy The DEM
ocratic party is confronted with the same
conditions in the monetary question that
it encountered in 1860 over the slavery
question.
"The great majority of Democrats will
favor the nomination of a silver man, but
with the two-thirds rule they will be I'M
able 10 accomplish it, and the result will be
two Democratic candidates, as was the case
in 1860.
THE tariff will be an issue in the cam
paign, but it will be subordinate to the
monetary ISSUE

MAYOR SUTRO.
The Breaking of Corporation Power
Should Receive Atte ntlon


"There are two great issues that will con-
front the American people in this cam
paign," said Mayor Sutro, land the greater
of these is the breaking of the power of
corporations. The people are up in rebel
lion against them. This is no longer a re-
publican form of government. The United
States Senate and Congress are elected with
the money of the big corporations and the
"Then the next question is the silver
question. There is no doubt that the
whole world is in favor of bimetallism.
The only Government that holds back is
the English, but the English people are
undoubtedly in favor of the double stand
ard. If the English people could be reached
subject, Parliament would be elected that
would forever settle the silver question IN
favor of bimetallism.'

An Irrigation Company Will Have to
Fight for Its Assessments.
George II. Abel and thirty -seven other
residents of Colusa have begun suit in the
United States Circuit Court to restrain the
Central Irrigation Company from Selling
their lands because of delinquent assess
ments. The case is practically test of
the Wright irrigation act, and has been be-
fore the courts for some time, but has
never come to an issue. The plaintiffs
now propose to see where they stand IN re-
gard to the matter, and, in consequence,
they have brought action against the irri-
CATION company to restrain it from selzlng
their property.

elected member of the House and
have not yet come in touch with
those who will be my associates and dis
like to air my opinions until have accom-
pllshed or been instrumental in accom-
plishing something. However 1 believe
that two of the most important things that
the next Congress will deal with are the
revision of the prote ctive tariff to raise
suf11clent revenues to meet the eX-
penses of the Government and
better protect our American indus
tries, and the currency question, with
legislation more favorable to silver.
| hope bill will be passed for the free
coinage of silver, and / shall use all my
endeavors to that end. 1t is claimed that
the Senate has majority of ten, and the
House slightly larger one in favor OF the
free coinage OF silver, but should the next
Congress attempt to modify the tariff or the
currency | am very much afraid that the
object will not be accomplished as, even if
the bills passed, the President would I'M
doubleday exercise the veto power, as he is
opposed to all reforms in the directions |
have mentioned.

The Congress that adjourned sine die at

ably, on its record, with any in recent years.
There is much that could be said in its favor.

enue bills by the Executive branch of the
Government. The Senate Indignantly rebulled
the Executive in presuming TO lecture and
hold up to public scon the Congress because
il would not do the Executives bidding; and
the House declined, by large majority. to
pass bill for the issue of gold bonds, so that
theory of finance. not legal requirement,
could be carried out by the Treasury Depart
ment at the Presidents bidding,
1t was not Billion Dollar Congress, as the
appropriations fall some millions short Of that
figure.
1t repealed odious and unconstitutional
federal election laws, thus permitting the peo-
pie to hold elections without the surveillance
of federal supervisors and marshals.
1t gave to the country lower tariff taxation
that in has known since 1860, and lower even
than was proposed by the Mills bill. And it

The Saturday Review of February con-
tains the following eausiie letter from Mr.. W.
H. Grenfell, an ex-governor Of the Bank Of

The late By-elections have been remarkable for

II the example set in the by-electiOns is followed
AT the general election the next House OF Commons
will be monotonously bmetallic. Those who oppose

again the blessings OF general fall in prices to
wage earneTs, who in agriculture and many other
industries find il increasingly difficult to earn any
wages at all.
The bimetallie successes are not unlikely to be
continued. The United Textile Factory Workers
Association of Lancashire Cheshire, Yorkshire and
Derbyshire has voted $500 to the Bmetallic League
They are naturally not much elated by the action
Of the great free-trade Liberal Government in put

little better than an imposture for the purpose OF
making matters even for them Lancashire has
fought for free trade before; Lancashire understands
that free trade with the slver-using East without
the par of exchange is impossible, and Lancashire
may fight for free trade again.
The agricultural voter, too, is not 50 delighted
with the low price Of products as some would make

the House to issue gold bonds. and the dis
cnssions of finances has awakened the people
throughout this country and Europe on the
injustice done to the farmers and the workers
by the decentralization. The Agrarian party
of Germany has been awakened, and that
awakening has resulted in the calling Of an
international monetary conference. In France
the sentiment against the single gold standard
has taken definite form, aud the question Of
rehabihtating silver has been the subject Of
discussion in the Chamber OF Deputies. In
England the sentiment for bimetaiSm has
been growing, and the by-electons have shown
government defeats aud bimetalic successes.
The price Of wheat the great farm product,
has declined in exactly the same ratio that
silver has declined and the farmers of this
country and Europe attribute agricultural de-
preston to a large degree to the demonetiza-
ton Of silver aud the general contraction Of
the currency.

the land and industrial business of the country

would pay the debts, charges, mortgages and de
bentureS upon them, and with falling prices, the
difficulty of paying the interest on these charges
becomes greater every year.
