Items Of Interest by the Wabash NJ an
Bulletin No. 2.-There are 20,169 news
papers published in the United States
and Canada; of this number 289 are pub
lshed in Colorado.
The Wabash railroad is the shortest
line between Kansas City and st. Louis.
For the year ending June 30, 1898,
the railways of the United States carried
593,66O,612 passengers, out of which num-
Der only 269 passengers were killed and
1929 injured.
From Chicago to Detroit the short line
is the Wabash, 1852 miles. This forms
portion of the celebrated Niagara Falls
short line to New York and Boston.
The wheat production in the United
States, for 1898, was 6,131,725 bushels,
valued at $213,l7l,381. Colorado's pro-
duction wac 2,504,0 bushels.
The Wabash is the only line running a
la carte dining cars between Chicago and
New York.
The American Telephone Co., in 1894
had 237,l86 subscribers and required the
service of 10,42l employees.

EXTRACTION OF ORES.
The Government to Re Ask ed to Ex-
pertinent In the Newer
Methods.

Washington, Mch. 15.-There is move
ment on foot among western man look
ing to an inquiry, permanent or other
wise, into the extraction of the precious
metals from their ores, but they appear
uncertain whether to proceed through the
geological survey or to ask congress to
appoint special commission. In men
tloning the matter the promoters urge
that no problem in foreign countries has
received keener or more constant scien-
tiflc and practical attention during the
last fifty years than that of how to ex-
tract from ores the percentages of gold
resisting amalgamatlon. They say it is
only within the last two or three wears
that chemical processes have affected the
whole commercial world by enormously
increasing the production of the precious
metals.
In 1886 the United States geological
survey issued a monograph containing a
full description of argentiferous lead
smelling in Leadville that resulted in
discoveries and new facts which proved
of great value and benefit, not only to
the metallurgist and miner, but also to
tne chemist and geologlst, and they be
lieve further examination by govern
ment experts of reduction processes
would greatly benefit the mining industry
of the United States.
They point out that in other parts of
the world the several governments are
investigating the new methods of recov-
ering the precious metals and are en-
the advancement of mining
enterprises in every possible way-not-
ably in New Zealand, Australia and
South Africa, where new methods of treat
ment have proved the salvation of re-
fractory gold and silver mines.
They add that they are aware of extern
sive low grade gold deposits in the United
States, similar in many respects to those
found in South Africa, New Zealand and
Australia, where new processes render
them amenable to treatments at large
profits. "The discovery alone of these
gold fields In the United States is not
sufficient" they continue, "but in COM
bination with methods to recover the
values at profit of high value, should
bring up the production of the precious
metals in the United States to figure
second to none in the world"

the Advance in the Price
Of Silver.

New York, Mch. 15.-The advance in
the price of silver is attributed to specu-
lative purchases in London, which have
led to decreased offerings in this market.
London's stock of silver is unusually

February of the London produce clearing
house, limited. The company does a fu-
ture delivery business in silver, receives
bullion on storage and makes cash ad-

silver up to July next to the amount of
1,175,024 ounces.

Madrid, Mch. 15.-The following cable

informed that on the Sth inst. the United
States mail steamship, Alliancia, on heI
homeward voyage from Colon to New York
when SIX miles from the coast of Cuba

by Spanish gunboat with solid shot
which fortunately fell short. The wind

plying between United States ports and
the Caribbean sea. Through it several
regular lines of American mail and com
mercial steamers pass weekly within
sight of Cape May. They are we'll known
and their voyage embraces no Cuban port
Of call.
Forcible interference with them can
not but be claimed as a belligerent act
whether they pass within three miles of
the Cuban coast or not, and can, un der
no circumstances, be tolerated when no
state of war exists. This government
will expect prompt disavowal of the
unauthorized act and due expression of
regret npon the part of Spain, and it
must insist that positive orders be given
to Spanish naval commanders not to in
terfere with legitimate commerce pass
ing throug h that channel, and prohibiting
all acts imperiling life and property law
fully under the flag of the United States.
You will communicate this to the minis

that the bill would confer the same

Mr.. Morse made a brief speech in

Bland, the leader of the silver demo-

This bill, he declared, was an at

He called attention to the democratic
platform of 1892, the pledge to settle
this financial question on the lines of
bimetallism. Step by step he traced
the course of those, who he alleged,
were carrying out conspiracy-frst,
the repeal of the silver purchase law
and the consummation OF their plans.
Mr.. Bland predicted if this bill be.
come a law that the greenbacl1s

Typewriters Like to Be Petted.

Typewriter girls are said to grow at
tached to their machines, and to re-
gard them almost as much in the light
of living creatures to be petted and
managed and judiciously disciplined
as the traditional railroad engineers
of fiction do their locomotives, to
which they invariably refer with the
personal feminine pronoun. The type
writing young women declare that
their machines are as sensitive and
subject to caprice, anC that they know
who is operating them as well as dog
knows its master, that they will sulk,
and perhaps flare up and refuse tc
work at all, under unskilled manipu.
lation, and that they can be soothed
into complacent and obllging frame
of mind again simply by the return Of

WHAT CAUSES 1T?
Is Our Boosted Civilization a Failure?-
Looks That Way.
ATLANTA Constitution, Democratic

lAuanta Constitution, Democrailc.l
The news columns of our exchanges
are filled with daily chapters of crime.
There was never anything like it be-
fore in the history of our country.
Murder, rape, arson, embezzlement,
forgery and highway robbery seem to
be the fashion of the day.
What causes it? Are the people
growing mad, or is our civilization a
failure?
1t is very easy for student of his
tory to answer the question. For some
years past we have been governed by
Shylocks instead of statesmen. Our
Presidents and congresses have simply
carried ont the DEGREES of Wall street.
and Wall street has obeyed instrrc-
tions from the money kings OF Europe.
The blight OF the gold standard has
seriously affected every producer and
wage Garner. Capital has retired to
the strong boxes of a few; commerce
and industry have been paralyzed, con-
tidence has vanished and men have
given themselves up to doubt and des-
pair and desperation.
Millions of our people find it hard to
get even starvation wages. They are
driven day by day into the great army
of tramps and criminals They see no
alternative. So they Stay strangers,
butcher their own families, seek refuge
in suicide, steal everything in sight,
rob railway trains, and hold up travel.
ers on the highways. Even the streets
of the cities are not safe in daylight
Ladies out shopping run the risk of
being violently assaulted by the rob.
bers who seem to infest every locality.
When government deliberately Gre
ates a period of hard times it is
natural, though deplorable, that law
lessness and crime should follow.
Almost anything is better than such
a state Of affairs. A foreign war an
inflated currency, fat money-anything
that will revive trade and industry
and give the people plenty of work at
good wages would be preferable to the
stupid and cruelty oppressive policy
which is rapidly turning this country
into land Of disorder and violence
But while this carnival of obstruction
is growing on our rulers and lawmak-
ers waste their time at cross purposes.
They kill time with their idle talk and
listen for the latest from Wall street
Plans of relief are proposed only to
pave the way for other plans, and
nothing is done. The governing
classes are asking for larger army
more soldiers and more bayonets-more
private detectives-more sentry boxes
before the white house, but have lost
sight of the people. Our statesmen
dine with Shylock, pocket their share
of the dividends which he has put
them in the way of making, and then
they solemly declare that our troubles
are all due to the fact that there is too
much money in circulation!
Under reign Of corruption and folly
how can we expect anything else but
pove rty and crime? On with the
dance-after that the delugel
