Five Hundred Million Chains.

Suppose Grover Cleveland should
send special message to congress
asking it for law empowering him
to have 500 million chains made TO
bind American citizens, would the
people rise in their Indignation and
hang him to lamp post! That is
just what he did "a few days ago
when he asked congress 10 give
him authority to issue 500 million
bonds. 4 people who are placed
ander the bondage OF debt are debt
slaves. And CleYeiand says if he
isn't given permission Of law tC
issue these bonds he will issue them
in defiance of both law and public
opinion, for there is absolutely he
law for the sale of these bonds he
has sold and threatens to sell.

COurtship by Proxy.

"Courtship by mail is apt to be dam
gerous," said Harry F. Potter of Bal
timore. ga great many more marriages
are arranged in this way than is gener-
ally supposed, and statistics do not prove
that they turn out ON the average any
worse than others. am personally ac-
quainted, however, with one case in
which a man married lady with whom
he had not even correspondent. A young
lady for joke answered matrimonial
advertisement, taking into her conf
dence friend who was as full of fun as
herself. When it came to the point of
exchanging photographs. she sent her
friends, and when, few weeks later, a
letter came inclosing railroad ticket,
an enthusiastic offer of marriage and q
request to come on at once, the origi-
nator of the joke thought matters had
gone far enough, and showing the let
ter to her friend told her she proposed
to tear it up and drop the correspond
ence. The friend, however, had be-
come impressed with both the photo
graph and eloquence of the distant WOO
er, and without telling any one of her
intentions she kept the appointment,
met the stranger and married him.
Probably more remarkable outcome Of
joke and of courtship by proxy has
seldom taken place. "-St. Louis Globe

Present Conditions.

The weekly statement of 'Trade
Prices and Gold" of commercial
papers of last week closes with the
following summing up.
"Stocks have fallen. Foreigners
are selling them. All prices are
very low, 81 per cent. below two
years ago and the lowest record
level in history. Product and con-
sumption in the manufacturing
staples match prosperous years.
Food was never cheaper. Business,
as measured by clearings, is % per
cent. below a normal level. Failures
are not numerous. Distrust of the
future is profound. Railroads are
making the worst earnings of a
generation. Railroad supplies,
maintenance and management are
exceptionally cheap"
By this showing poverty stalks
unchecked over the nation.

Ina World Famous shop.

In Worth's shops in Paris, says a
London print, there are dignity and Sc
verify almost classical. Everything is
strict, correct, CONNIE il faut. Clients
occupy one of the many simply decorat-
ed rooms en- suite, all of which open
upon the long corridor whose windows
overlook the Rue de la Paix. They are
spectators rather than customers, while
graceful creatures in long procession,
each appareled in the newest fashion.
Nothing is seen of the seamy side, all
the machinery of manufacture, work
rooms, patterns. untidiness, are relegated
to back premises, and, save for the fit
ting by of harried runner or
thatcher" or filter, nothing of the
inner life is visible except when at rare
intervals the prince of dressmakers
Strolls, solemn and distracted, through
the rooms from his studio to the
"ateliers," from the study where he
composes to the workrooms where his
ideas take PRACTICAL shape.

Unjust Pension Laws.

The widows of Presidents re-
ceive $4,000 per annum and of
Generals $4,000, Colonies and minor
officers in proportion to their rank
and pay when in actual service,
while the private soldier is paid
$12 a month. This is aristocratic
class injustice. These high function
aries, talents were worth a superior
price-some of them-when in
actual service, than the men in the
ranks, but it requires no more
talents to do nothing in the soldier
line at home in general than in
the private, and for the same work
ought both to get the same pay.

The poverty of to-day and tn


The poverty of to-day and the
poverty Of sixty years ago are very
different social conditions. Then
the honest, and energetic mechanic
or laborer with good health could
establish himself in a little business
and rise by steady industry could ac-
cumulate property sufficient to in
sure him independence, and es'
tablish a prosperous business. To-
day such men are doomed to con-
dition of wage slavery. No indepen'
dent condition can he acquired by
honest industry alone, and that is
all the vast majority of men have
to depend on.

John Sherman's Career.

There has not been "a more Wig
orous series of political articles pub
lished since the famous Arthur
Richmond letters than the series
which opens in the February Arena
with an open letter to Senator John
Sherman. This first paper takes
up the different positions Mr..
Sherman has occupied on great
public questions, notably those OF
resumption and contraction of the
currency and the income tax. The
quotations from the records contain
ing the Senator's very various and
conflicting views and the deductions
of the writer make very lively po-
litical reading. AS the author says,
at is impossible for prominent
man who has played a great part
in the affairs of a great nation to
escape history"
"Bimetalism and Legislation" is
another strong article in the Febru-
airy Arena, by q. S. Thomas, that
will arrest the attention of the
student of our politics. The blum
dering, Misrepresentation and
treachery that has marked the
history of our financial legislation
will mark one of the darkest pages
in the history of the first century
of the republic. The de iberate
betrayal of the people by their
chosen representatives in the inter
est of the gold conspiracy, has few
if any parallels in history, John
Sherman takes his place beside
Aaron Burr, in the excavations OF
the future readers of American
history, and the betrayal of the
people and the trust eonfided
to them by the administrations
since 1873 will be read with amaze
ment by future generations when
the stupidity or venality of the
period is written by the cold, DELHI
crate historian.

A Financial Crank.

The Philadelphia Item calls
Grover a financial crank and pro-
ceeds to prove it. The Item says:
"The crank features of the
message are these: He recommends
the custom duties payable in gold.

Treasury when any holder of green
backs, silver certificates, 1890 Treas
ury notes, silver dollars, and
National bank notes, to the amount
of 81, O5O,O0O,OOO is empowered
under the gold basis idea to EX-
CHANGE ANY and ALL OF
THEM at the Treasury for GOLD

The President would shovel the
gold out of the window of the Treas
ury in to the window of the Custom
House What profit is there in
that transaction to anybody? EX-
cept perhaps coal beavers.
He recommends the retirement
of greenbacks and 1890 notes to the
amount of $5OO,OOO,OOO in order to
remove the further responsibility
of the Government to pay out gold
over and over again in redemption
of those two forms of money.
When profit is in that to the
people, when the silver certificates,
and the National bank notes must
thereafter serve this SAME PUR-
POSE of redemption over and over
again so long as holders of these
notes demands"
