The Former British Minister'S ExpIans

ahe Former British Minister'S Explans-
ton Of an Interesting Episode.
NEW YORK, Oct "a special cable
gram to the World from London says an
extraordinary and, in many respects, un.
precedented publication by q British OF
other high diplomat, has been discussed
curing the past few days among the
st. James.
This Is o handsomely printed nam.
phlet, marked "For private circulation
only" and entitled. "My Mission 20 the
United States, 81 49," which has iust
been issued by Lord Sackville, who ss
'Sir Lionel Sackville- West, X c. M. G.,
WAS the English minister to Washing
ton for the period named.
1t will be remembered that Preside en- {
cleveland almost on the eve of the
election of 1888 sent Sir Lionel his pass
ports, because OF letter written by him
10 an alleged Englishman in California,
ommentlng upon the approach cleo
ton. This pamphlet Is Lord Sackville's
oefense and explanation, after seven
years OF that incident. But the unpre-
ceoented part OF it, and the part which
mas aroused very excited comment Is,
first, the freedom OF his stric lures upon
the American people and American
puolic men, and, second, his own ex-
pressed indignation that the British
ministry should have accepted Mr..
bayard as ambassador to this country
while as Secretary Of State of the
United States Mr.. Bayard had wan
tonly insulted In person its accredited
representative.
The pamphlet consists OF flfty-two
pages, $4,000 words. and is OF very
Limited issue, not more than one hun
dred copies These have been sent
under seal only to leading foreign diplo-
mats, the higher English officials and a
few personal friends.

WE are in receipt of flaming cir
cular letter with four line plea head
from the Building and Loan Record
of Des Moines, denouncing Auditor
Mccarthy for daring to have an in
spection of the condition of the various
building and loan associations doing
business in Iowa. If there is any
business that ought to be inspected il
is these concerns that handle the say
ings of the small investors of the state
Many men have their all invested in
these associations and if inspection
will prevent possible loss, then let Ut
by all means, have inspection.

THE RATES NOT RAISED.

The petition of the railway COM
panies asking an advance on the sched-
ule of freight rates was denied by a
majority of the board of railroad com.
missioners, Commissioner Peter A.
Dey dissenting.
The railroad companies held that the
present rates were unrenumerative as
fixed by the board, the same as they did
when the schedule was made. This,
however, was questioned by the COM
mission. And, as the railway compan-
les had the privilege of going before
the courts, and proving that the rates
were unrenumerative and yet did not
do so; it is very probable that the COM
panies doubted their ability to prove
the fact. Judge Brewer, when he re-
fused to enjOin the railroad commits
sion from enforcing the present rates,
left the railways the right of appeal to
the courts, with the chance of remedy
if they proved that the rates were too
low.
The railroads have suffered the ef-
fects of business depression, but prob
ably to no greater extent than have
farmers and merchants. Hard times,
and the fact that Iowa has had little or
no grain to ship has caused immense
decrease in tonnage. At the Audubon
Rock Island station there was de-
crease of $4,000 in one months bust
ness in the corresponding months of
1894 and 1893, and this is the rule rather
than the exception over Iowa.
Many men have been laid off by the
railroads, but increased rates would
not have helped their case or saved
their jobs. Railroad companies are
not going to run empty trains just for
the sake of keeping the men at work.
The general opinion is that the rail-
roads ought to take the lack of bust
ness the same as Others and wait fol
the prosperity that will come with the
: revival of business.
1t is not right or just to force any
5usiness to be done at loss, but the
commissioners were not convinced that
the railways were doing this, and there,
fore the rates will stand.
1t would be better for the railroads
to ask advances in rates inprosperous
times than now, when the man who
can come out even considers himself
fortunate.
The commissioners are honest and
honorable men and no doubt decided
in the way they believed to be right.

THE TOPIC OF THE HOUR.

Within the past year, and especially
within the past six months, finance has
taken, as a topic of press discussion,
the place occupied for several years
past by the tariff. Contradictory and
irreconcilable as are the psoitions, com
pick and confused as are the arguments
of the political parties and leaders of
the country upon the tariff question,
they are no less SO upon the question
of finance. The great political prob
lem of the day in the United States is
the problem of reforming the National
currency. The man or woman who
pretends to be well informed will not
be content to learn the views of few
news papers only upon the financial
and other questions of the hour, but
will seek in some way to get survey
of the press discussion in all parts OF
the country and upon all sides of the
question at issue. There is no way tC
get such survey except by reading a
journal that gives extracts and con.
densed statements from all the leading
representative papers and reviews
Such a journal is Public Opinion. pub
lished weekly at Washington, ID. c
In its particular field it is unique and
unrivaled. 1t covers the entire range
of current news and comment, politica
sociological, financial, scientific, religi
Gus, literary, both American and
foreign. In connection with the
American Institute of Civics it has
inaugurated an exceedingly helpful
