What the Money Power Is.

Money has no patriotism. Ithas
no moral principles. If the life Of
the government were in danger to-
morrow, as it was in 1S61-'65, the
money power would hold it up by
the throat. In fact, it is now
strangling the government. 1t
smiles on you when you recognize
its power, but will crush you if you
antagonize it, just as it induced
Pontius PLATE and the officials of
government to kill Jesus Christ and
scatter his followers, writes w. II.
Harvey another of :Coin's Finan-
cial School," in the North Ameri-
can Review for July. 1t is now
only partially aroused; if the dan
ger to it continues to rise in this
country it will exhibit all its
strength and it will be terrible 1t
will seize the government. Official
despotism will follow. Men whose
characters have been moulded and
made by the conditions leading up
to the present situation, when elect
ed to office, become the servants of
this power. Their salaries are not
reduced; if changed at all the sal
aries are raised. The purchasing
power of their dollars are increased
by the system they defend. Their
self interest goes with the money
power, and they court its favors
and look for soft spot, financially,
on which to land at the end of their
term of office. They seemingly
become heartless concerning the
common masses-the plain people
hence, official despotism. These
are the conditions that come with
the breaking down of government
as natural result of the money
power absorbing the Wealth of the
people. / do not mean any man
individually, or any number of men
collectively, when | speak of the
money power. 1t is thing i'm
personal. 1t is a grasping perverse

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Do Women Know?

That sweet clover, in which the
road sides in some parts of our
country abound, is a fragrant de-
light for whole year, is used to
fill couch pillows. Dry it in bags
of cream cheese cloth, then stuff
the pillows with it.
That Scotch ginghamsand printed
plisse are by no means neglected
because they are cheap. They are
lust the material for seashore and
mountain.
That new coffee sets have tall,
slender cofetiers of silver decorated
in Milo work, and cups and saucers
of Coalport china in various solid
colors, decorated with gold. The
shades of china include royal blue
turquoise, apple green, pale yellow,
Dubary rose, and other Sevres
colors.
That for a company breakfast or
the usual family luncheon hominy
boiled and sweetened, nodded in
medium sized cups, and served
very cool with whipped cream is a
most desirable delicacy.
That for meal of several courses
it is no longer good form to lay on
the knives, forks and spoons that
are to be used at each cover at the
beginning of the meal. No more
than four sets are placed at first
the oyster fork, the soup spoon, the
fish knife and fork, and one larger
knife for the first relieve Of meat
Other eating implements are added
with each course that follows.
That lace and satin and fligrees
of that sort are tabooed from ele.
gantly appointed tables for covers
The finest and handsomest OF
damask, snowy white, alone Ii
counted in the best taste.
That black lace gowns are relieved
by bright oolored bows.

For hands that perspire excess
sively bathing the hands several
times day with hot infusions of
white oak bark is recommended.
Rugs to be thoroughly cleansed
from dirt should be beaten with
that useful little article known as a
whipper, which forces from them
all particles of dust.
To make a closet door novel and
attractive hang on it a good motto
in brass or carved wood. A silk
or satin banner screen will do if
the words embroidered thereon are
appropriate.
Lamps are no longer always
placed upon the reading table. If
wrought iron they can be placed on
brackets to the wall. By the aid
of a large hook they supply light
for a corner over a cOzy resting
place.
The very best way to wash
mirrors or window glass is to
sponge the surface with alcohol and
dust it with whiting, and finally
polish it off with channels skin or
soft cotton cloth. Paint is best re-
moved by alcohol and the friction
of a penny, the edge of which is
never sharp enough to scratch.

Viewed Through Foreign Eyes.

Viewed Through Foreign Eyes.
The Echo, an English paper,
paints this picture of the near
future of the United States. The
Echo says:
The signs of the times indicate
that before the sun rises ON June 1,
1900, the great American nation
will groan and writhe in an agony
of revolution and the streets will
be slippery with blood.
A hundred drops of blood for
each gem that flashes on the necks
of the rich and pampered women,
and ten drops of blood for each tear
that has washed the face of the
poor.
Every election is carried by fraud
and Doodle. Politics is so rotten
that it stinks. Everybody knows
it, and nobody cares. America is
no longer a republic. 1t is plu
tocracy.
The President is merely the Gre
alton of the banks, or bank direc-
tors, railroad kings and coal barons,
and it is the same with the COVER
nors of the states.
The poor whine about their pow
.erty and gnaw their crust of bread,
but can always be counted on to
vote for the rich and shoulder their
muskets and lay down their lives
in defense of the right of the rich
to rob them.
A nation such as this, in which
one million plutocrats tyrannize
over sixty millions of slaves, will
eth be overthrow by a foreign
power or drowned in its own blood
or die of gangrene.
The various labor organizations
neither think together, vote togeth-
er nor work together, and they
have no money to buy votes,
lawyers and judges.
"Soldiers and police shoot down
laboring people and are cheered on
in their bloody work by monopo-
listic editors, capitalists and the
clergy.
But the day will soon come when
there will be a horrible dance tc
death, lighted up by burning
houses and the music of cries and
groaDs and dynamite bombs.
Rich idlers amuse themselves al
Newport and Tuxedo; poor workers
toll ceaselessly in the darkness OF
the mine and the din of the mill.
Young men and women dawdle
over iced champagne and oyster
patties; old men and women pick
rotten food out of the garbage cans
Lap dogs are driven through
Central park to take the air; chill
dren die of overwork in filthy
garrets.
Piety in the White House Gen
during" the fruits of bribery-in-
fidelity in the tenement house
enduring the punishment of up
rightness.
These are the signs of the times
in America to- day-signs that point
to calamities too dreadful to imag-
inc, but which nothing can avert.

American Silver VS.. British Gold.

American Silver VS.. British Gold.
The difference between the cause
of American bimetallism and that
of the British gold standard is
clearly illustrated by the methods
which are employed in presenting
them before the country. The
cause of American bimetallism is
entirely in the hands of the people.
1t has behind it no purchased or
purchasable newspapers. 1t has
behind it no combination of bank
ers, no money clique, no gold ring,
no horde of Shylocks and money
lenders. In every state, district
and county it has been taken up by
the people. In every case where
the politicians display doubt or
hesitation the cause of American
bimetallism has been taken out of
their hands by the plain and honest
voters of the country.
Thus we see the movement tax.
ing shape in the west and in the
south, having behind it the patriotic
purpose of the people.
On the other hand, the movement
in behalf of the British gold stan
dard has behind it every selfish
interest that depends on the con-
traction of the peoples money sup
ply and the enhancement of the
purchasing. power Of the dollar. It
has behind it all the wealth and
power of the British bank; all the
wealth and power of the banks of
this country; all the political in
fluence that money can buy; all the
machinery of the administration; all
the Office holding class that can be
whipped into line; all the news
papers that can be influenced with
money or patronage, and all the
business men who are compelled to
depend on the banks for accommo-
dalton. 1t has behind it all the
power of Wall street and all the
secret influences that flow ont from
that corrupt and reckless money
center to all quarters of the repub-
lie, and it has working in its behalf
a central campaign committee which
holds its meetings under the shadow
of Wall street.
That under all these adverse in
fuences the cause of American BIZ
metallism should display any vital
ity at all would besurprising under
ordinary circumstances, but the fact
that it has developed a vitality that
is more than extraordinary shows
that the people are at last arousing
themselves to the necessity of de,
Tending their dearest rights and
interests.
And that is true. The people in
all parts of the country are begin
ming to agitate this great question
with the force and fervor that they
threw into the political campaigns
that took place in the better days of
the republic-the days when the
will of the people recorded at the
ballot box was regarded as a thing
too sacred to be tempered with.
And the people will win this
time as they have always won when
engaged in defending their rights
and liberties. They will overthrow
the British gold standard even as
they overthrow the less intOlerable
political conditions imposed ON them
by the aggressive and selfish policy
of Great Britain. They will win,
and woe to the time serving poll
ticians who stand in their way or
strive to thwart them.-Atlanta

A QUESTION OF BACKBONE.
VIII Auanta's Council Prohibit
street Railway ExtOrtiOn.

VIII Auanta's Council Prohibit
street Railway ExtOrtion.
Atlanta. Ca, Sept. 1.-THE city council
has taken hold of the Consolidated Street
Railway Company. and its gouge in the
matter of exposition car fares.
For the past ten days the whole city
has been up in arms against the Con-
solidated on account OF its announced de-
termination to double the regular price
for transportation to the exposition
grounds. The Consolidated's action has
been plainly called a gouge. Not only
have Atlanta people been protesting Wig
orously against the extortion, but the
press all over the country has been CIV
ing exposition prospects a black eye on
account Of IL.
Under the charter granted to the Con-
solidated the city council has the pow
er to regulate fares and great public in
terest has been felt in its attitude.
When the body met this afternoon, the
chamber was well-fled with people
awaiting the result of the agitation. The
matter came up in the form of reso-
luton by Councilman helms reciting the
fact OF the Consolidated's action and call
ing upon the council to appoint a COM
mittee of investigation.
There was considerable excitement over
the resolution. but the members held
themselves we'll in hand during the dis
cussion. The resolution was finally passed
and a committee of five appointed
TO investigate the Consolidated's EXPOSE
tion plans. Their duty is practically for
mality The committee will report back to
council with some sort of a recommends
tion and then the fight will be made.
1t has long been a common expression
that the consolidated controls the council
as it has always won out against all
competitors before that body. In view of
this the councils action will be one of the
most interesting events in municipal his
tory.
Eminent lawyers concede that the coun-
ell has the authority to regulate the fares.
The question now appears to be simply
one of backbone.

A CONVERT To SOUND MONEY.
DIR. spRIding's Mexican Visit and HIS
Studies in Finance

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 2.-The committee
that went to Mexico to invite President
Diaz to visit the exposition. has returned.
Dr. r. d. Spalding. one of the most infiu-
entail men in the city. was chairman of
the committee.
When he left Atlanta DIR. Spalding was
a free silver coinage man. After seeing
what the silver standard has done for
Mexico he is a convert to sound money.
His conversion, locally at least, has a
strong influence. as the doctor is a man
beyond the suspicion of demagogy.
DR.. Spalding was asked what he learned
of the free coinage of silver in Mexico.
He replied that when he left Atlanta two
weeks ago. he was a believer in the 16
to ] jdea, but that since his visit to the
silver currency country OF Mexico he
could no longer advocate this country S
adoption of free silver. He found that
American silver dollars called for as much
as $l.6 in Mexican money, and Mexican
money purchased only half as much as
the money of the United States. He
learned that artisans working in facto-
ries and quarries earn from Is TO 70 cents
per day in Mexican money. The condition
of the poorer classes was such as to ap-
peal strongly TO him and he declared that
he was now a gold standard man.
In Mexico, he said, the poor are the
slaves of the wealthy. and if that state
of affairs is in any way due to silver, which
he believed was apparent, he did not care
to see this country experiment with de.
preciated money.

MYSTERY GROWS DEEPER.
No Light as Yet on the Tragic Death
of Broker Bass


Atlanta. Ca. sept. mo developments
of consequence have occurred in the Bass
murder case since the verdict OF the cor
oner's jury.
The murder Is one Of deep mystery and
instead Of unravelling it the work Of the
detectives each day seems to deeper the
complications.
No arrests have been made and so far
as can be learned direcs suspicion has
not been fixed upon any enc.
While the testimony before the cOrO-
ner on Saturday tended TO implicate sew
eraI detectives. those who have studied
the case take no stock in this feature Of
II.
The city detectives have a great many
enemies who are ever alert to injure
them. They are no better than ordinary
men, but when sifted down TO the bot
tom they appear TO have the advantage
IN this case. although it looked bad for
them in the beginning.
BASES friends and attorneys. since his
death. claim that he was not guilty Of
keeping a fence" for thieves. but the de-
tectives who made the charge against
him have evidnce that would in all prob
ability have convicted him. Putting the
case on this theory, winch is by long
odds The most plausible. the private de-
tectives who have been en-
pIoyed on the case. as well
as the city detectives are looking for the
murderer in the person Of some one of
the crooked characters with whom Bass
IS alleged TO have had dealings.
Bass is said 10 have been on more than
familiar terms with an organized gang Of
people who had stolen goods to place,
some of them probably connected with
mercantile houses. which they plundered.
They feared he would expose them as he
had promised he would do TO the police
and to prevent this exposure he was put
out of the way
A well known private detective discuss
ing the case to-day predicted that, If ever
found, the identity of the murderer would
startle the community as well as involve
people who have been above suspicion with
their employers. while plundering them
through Bass and his alleged commits
sion house.
A man has been found who says he saw
Bass fall to the ground Friday morning.
This man, whose name is Divine, states
that he was about half block away
from Bass when the shot was fired. He
states he did not see anyone run away,
but he cannot say whether Bass shot
himself or was shot. 1t was his impression
at the time Bass shot himself. Divine did
not approach the body He says that he
passed on the opposite side of the street.
