LISTEN To THE RueI.r CALI.

COMRADES: In rallying for the great
battle for your rights do not forget
your misunderstanding NATIONAL
TRIBUNE. Most necessary to your bat
tie is it that it should be made as strong
as possible for the great contest this
Winter.
We are going to have a harder fight
during the next session Of Congress than
ever. Our enemies in Congress are far
from being satisfied with the injury they
have already done US, but contemplate
still another raid.
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE is the main
friend and champion the comrades have
here at the National Capital and in the
whole country. 1t will make a stub
born fight to save the veterans from the
wicked robbery contemplated. 1t can
do more than any other paper or agency
can.
Therefore, 1t is TO your interest to
build up the paper to the utmost, and
make it as strong as possible in every
community. The more subscribers it
has behind it, the stronger battle it can
make for you and all comrades. There
fore, see that your name is on its lists,
and that as many as possible Of your ac-
qualntances subscribe for it. If not
already subscriber send in your name
at once, and get at least one more. Get
up a club if possible. We want every
veteran to rally around our flag for one
more effort. We all have to fight now,
and THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE will lead.
Let it head a column of at least 100000
subscribers Then all the power Of the
Solid South cannot prevail against it.
Help US now, and by so doing help
yourselves most effectively.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Now, /

ceived at Charlottesville, and don't like
to be called hummer and eoffee-cooler by
the men we send down to Washington to

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, in hurting its
heaviest thnnderbolts against the incarcer-
ated Mr. Debs, is forgetting that the cause
of labor has ever suffered or may suffer yet,
at the hands of incorporated greed. Grand
Army Advocate.
No; we do not forget it for an in
slant. THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE is
just as much alive to the dangers to
workingmen of incorporated greed as
any other paper in the country. We
are just as strongly ON the side of the
workingman and the common people.
But that has absolutely nothing to do
with our condemnation of lawlessness
and crime. Calling oneself working
man is no sort of excuse for crime, and
murder and arson are just as much
crimes when 1000 men commit them
as when one does. This is country of
law and order. If the laws are wrong,
change them, but obey them so long as
they are laws.

PREFERENCE FOR VETERANS.

When the people of New York
adopted their new Constitution they
took the veteran completely out Of the
power of trading politicians, and made
him forever independent of the vicissi-
tudes of parties. The following strin-
gent clause is now part of the organic
law of the State:
Appointments and promotions in the
| Civil Service of the State and of all the civil
divisions thereof. including cities and viii
lagos, shall be made according to merit and
fitness, 10 be ascertained so far as practicable
by examinations, which, SO far as practicable,
shall be competitive; provided, however,
that honorably discharged soldiers and sail
ors from the army and navy of the United
States in the late civil war, who are citizens
and residents of this State, shall be entitled
TO preference in appointment and promotion,
without regard TO their standing on any list
from which appointments or promotions may
be made. Laws shall be made for the en-
forcement this section"
This was an act entirely worthy of the
patriotic people of New York, a State
which sent 467,047 of its sons into the
Union army, or IS per cent. of those
between the ages of IS and 45. Re
duced to three years standard this was
344,7S4 men, of whom 1905 were
killed on the field of battle, or nearly 6
per cent, and q, 447, or per cent, died
from other causes, making nearly per
cent. In other words, one out Of every
seven men who entered from New York
lost his life in the struggle. New York
lost twice as many men killed outright
as there were of American soldiers at any
time in Mexico during our war with that
country, and the total deaths among her
troops make an army over four times as
great as that commanded by Gen. Scott
at any time during his advance upon
the City of Mexico.
We hold this enactment up as a model
for the comrades and Sons of Veterans
in other States. They may not have an
opportunity to secure the adoption of a
constitutional provision, but they can
do the next best thing, have stringent,
effective law placed ON the statute books
providing for compulsory preference Of
veterans in all State employment.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

While describing conditions which
exist, the Presidents Message fails alb
solutely to allude to the ceuse of those
conditions. 1t does not say, as it should,
that those conditions are the necessary
and inevitable result Of the doctrines
laid down in previous messages, and
that all the messages should be read
together, when they would make a COM
prehensiye illustration Of Cause and
Effect in National finances. The pres
ent message simply describes the prac-
teal operations of the teachings Of the
previous ones.
Underneath all the reiteration of
financial theories the basic facts cannot
be lost sight of for an instant. These
are that gold is going out of the Treasury
because the revenues have been reduced
below the expenditures, and that gold
flows out of the country because the
Tariff has been SO deformed that we
buy immense quantities of merchandise
abroad which we should produce at
home.
This is absolutely all there is to it,
and volume might be written without
saying anything more.

There Are Now Fine Prospects Ahead for
Seattle.

There Are Now Fine Prospects Ahead for
Seattle.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: The bar
riers are breaking away, and the long night
of doubt, distress, and lack of confidence is
nearly over on the shores Of Puget Sound
1t is true the deformers hit US hard-harder
perhaps than any other Western State; but
the resources and recuperative powers will
assert themselves in spite of the wreckers.
Seattle, the Queen City, will be the first to
cast off the old raiment and don her old
time costume. A committee of leading
business men and progressive fnanciers
have just returned from the East, and report
having secured $5500,000 for the purpose of
filling in the tide flats and building the
Lake Washington Ship Canal. This great
undertaking has been the hope and dream
of the progressive people for score or more
of years, and now that their hopes are to be
realized they have right to feel elated
1t will give employment toseveral thou
sand men for at least four years. It will
give us one Of the finest harbors in the
world Vessels, while unloading, will be
denuded of the vexatiOus barnacle by reason
of the contact with fresh water. The filing
in of the tide flats provides about $500 acres
more of level land for wholesale and manu-
featuring purposes, and at the same time
solves the great teredo question. This pest
costs wharf-owners an immense total annu-
ally, and no kind of wood is proof against
the b0rers.
This great work is not the only one. for
money has been secured for conveying the
immense power of Snoqualmie Falls to this
city, aud the same company will begin i'm
mediately to put in a fine steel plant and
carworks, which will give employment to
between 5000 and 1000 men.
Western Washington is the natural home
of the old soldier, and thousands of them
have taken advantage of the equable climate
and cheap living by settling on the fine
lands with their families. Seattle has two
GAR. Posts, with a membership of about
800 each; two W.R.C's, and fourishing
Camp of S. of VS.. The State has one of
the finest Soldiers Homes in the West, and
a special tax is levied each year by the
Counties to aid poor and deserving ex-
soldiers.
But I realize the danger-lne, and have
receptacle for long-drawn-out communica-
tions myself-JoHN E. RIsEDORPH, Z, 4th

The National tribune., 1895-01-31

In many ways Senator Sherman's
proposition to issue new loan, with
bonds Of the denomination of $40 and
upward, is the most sensible one made vet.
IF we are to have an increase of the Ma
ationl debt, which seems inevitable on ac-
count of the laundering of the Tariff De-
formers, it is by all odds preferable that
the debt be in the hands of the common
people, as an investment for their savings,
and that they be the recipient of the in
terest money. The experiment has been
repeatedly tried elsewhere, and always
with the best results. Napoleon III. did
very much to secure the stability of his
throne during the Is years he occupied
it, by the issuance Of bonds as low as %
francs (S5), which the priests induced
the peasantry to- take in great numbers,
and thus attached them strongly to the
Government. The State of Georgia, which
is one of the best administered States
in the South, issued "baby bonds" of So
each, some years ago, which were very
popular. Jay Cooke & Co. greatly
helped the Government during the latter
years of the war by floating $50 and
500 bonds among the common people.
There is no better way than this to make
an elastic currency. When money is
scarce and high, the bonds would pass
from hand to hand as currency; when
money was easy and cheap, people would
hoard them for the interest.

The English think that we will want
10 place some, if not great part, Of the
new loan with them. This should moi
be. 1t means an increase of the drain
of gold to pay the interest. Much
better adopt Senator Shermsn's plan, and
sell small bonds to our own people
Better still to adopt the Postofiice Saw
ings Bank plan, which would give tbs
Government the use of hundreds of mil
lions Of dollars of the peoples savings
at a fair rate of interest, and the interest
money would go to our own people.
