H-Eg.aW# HL Hr III w
president OF the National League Of
Republican Clubs, is a man of consider.
able prominence among the younger bust
ness men of New York city, where he re-
sides. He is about 40 years of e and
IS not in any a politician, as he has
never held elective political offices, ard
he seeks no political preferment. He is
emlnently fitted for the league work and
leadership, as he has been three times
the president of the New York State
League. He is a member of the Union
League and republican clubs Of his ma
tive city, and he is widely popular be-
cause of his personal magnetism and
genial manner and address.

question as to which party will be in
trusted with the solving of this problem.
The record of the republican party proves
that it has always been in favor of in
creasing the currency in keeping with
the demands Of the country, but only on
the basis that the purchasing and debt
paying power of a dollar, whether of
silver or gold, shall at all times be kept
equal. The people will be satisfied to
leave the solving of the currency ques-
ton IN the hands of the republican
party. They know that in the future, as
in the past, the interests of silver in all
it's relations to the people can be safely
intrusted to the protecting care of that
party. This entire question as to the
future use of silver will probably be SET
tied by the great commercial nations of
the world within a year. Germany and
France are seeking bimetallism and Eng
land is fast turning in that direction.
What the people should do is to bring
pressure to bear upon their representa-
tives for the appointment of delegates to
an international conference with power
to act, and insist upon an agreement and
obligation from the nations participating
to maintain the ratio as there adopted
Finally, the great work of the republican
party is the promotion and enlargement
of ou industries through protection,
and the extension of our foreign trade
through reciprocity; the establishment
of a bimeta]lic standard of money
through international agreement, in
which silver shall be more fully recog-
nized; the revival of our merchant
marine, and the creation of a system of
irrigation for the reclamation of arid
lands. Having given our attention to
the questions of the day, let the voice
of this convention be of no uncertain
tone. Let it go forth full of vim and
vigor, full of Americanism in the daunt-
less spirit of Americanism as taught bv
James G. Blaine. let your platform be
wide enough, broad enough, and strong
enough to cover the whole country and
meet the approval of the whole coun-
try"

use OF lntoxicants absolutely forbidden,
none allowed to clerk in a saloon, to W

IN VIEW Of the recently renewed aei-
tation as to the control and re.organiza-
ton of the Northern Pacific, Bradstreet
cites some interesting figures to show
the task which will confront the re-or-
g%anizers. The debts of the road, which
must be met: show that the work of re-
organization is much easier transacted
on paper, and in newspapers, than in
actual fact. In round numbers there
are S45,OO0,0 900 of first mortgage bonds
on the lands and main line: s2O,-
0OO,OOO of second mortgage bonds on
the lands and main line; s11, OOO, 900 of
third mortgage bonds on the lands and
main line; S44,00O,OOO of consolidated
mortgage bonds on the lands, main line
and branch line railways. Then comes
S36,OOO,OOO of preferred stock and s49,-
100000 of common stock, after which
the pressing needs of the company are
shown..by the following:
S9,50O,000 Collateral Trust
Notes. lines on terminals. due in 1898
Sl1,OOO,0NO Receivers Indebted 80
ness........... Due currently and in 1896
SS.OOO,0N0 Trust Equipment
Due in 1898
The last group of evidences of debt
shows a total of $23, 100000, to which
certainly not less than $10,0OO,OOO in
money, according to Receiver Henry G.
Rouse, is need for almost immediate re.
Mobilization of the road. This points to
the immediate need of about s33, 500, 900
on the part of whoever is to re-organize
Northern Pacific. This amount must be
raised to take the road out of the re-
ceivers hands, and the problem will af-
ford plenty of interest for the re-organiz.

MILLIONS of acres are to be added to
the great homestead areas of the west.
Ihe last congress enacted a law pro-
vlding that the general government shall
donate to each state in which there are
arid lands 100000 acres of such lands
on condition that the reclamation is done
by the states. Already Idaho and Wyo.
ming have complied with all the formal
ties OF the law and have taken steps
toward securing 100000 acres of land
within their borders. Under the new
law the state is to undertake the work
and is to sell the lands in sections of not
oVer 100 acres to any one person for
such price as can be obtained. The gov
eminent retains possession for five years.
and it at the end of that time the re-
clamation appears to be permanent the
title of the land passes to the state and
thence to the settler. This means homes
and farms for a multitude of people,

On March 2, 1893, President Harrison
approved a bill which had been cham
pioned by ex.State Railroad Commits
sloner Coffin of Iowa, providing for
greater safety in the coupling of freight
cars used in interstate commerce. The
law, which goes fully into effect on the
LIST day of July, requires that all such
cars shall have safety coupling bars and
other safety appliances, and referred the
selection of such appliances to the
American Railway Union. In view of
the neal approach of the expiration of
the time limited in the law the interstate
commerce commission has issued a cir
cular letter to all interstate railways
calling their attention to the require
ments of the law. It is said the law will
be cheerfully complied with by all roads,
and will do much toward lessening acct
dents to trainmen.

SECRETARY HoKE SMITH has rendered
a decision on appeal that will be of in
terest to many western homesteaders.
The case in question was that of j. A.
Wells, of the Alliance Land district,
Nebraska, who requested an extension
OF time for making payment on his pre-
emption clam. The land office refused
the request on the ground that such ex-
tension could be granted only in cases
where inability to pay existed by reason
of failure of crops. In his decision Sec
rotary Smith reversed this ruling and
calls attention to a recent act of congress
which extends the time of final payment
for one year in cases where the entryman
is unable to make payment on account
OF any cause which he is unable to con-
troll. This law was passed in view of the
financial distress prevailing throughout
the country last year.

surrender the palm in the matter of
moisture, to the region about Chamber

paper report, a dry lake bed, containing
$500 acres, was filled to a depth Of
eight inches, over its entire extent, in a

fair to presume that the next shower
will fill the lake with all manner Of fish,

IHE wages of not less than 25O,OOO
men IN the United States have been adj
vanced materially within the last ninety
days. Careful inquiry throughout the
country indicates an advance averaging
nearly - per cent. The Chicago Tribune
has compiled a list which embraces more
than $50 firms which have within the
last few weeks advanced the of
their employees. A notable feature of
this great industrial improvement is that
the wages of these $50, 900 men have with
hardly an exception been advanced vol
unfairly by the employers. The season
has been remarkably free from strikes.
Employers have shown a spirit of will
ingness to share the results of the era of
general prosperity which seems to have
set in without waiting for any clamorous
demands from the workmen and without
delaying the division of profits until
labor grew impatient. The increases
prove that the panic is done, and that
prosperity Is coming back; that the
clouds have passed and the working
mans sun is once more shining. With
an abundant harvest in sight, and with
all natural conditions favorable, pros
poets are good. While wages are not as
high as in 1892, owing, as the manu-
%facturers themselves say, to the fact that
the Wilson tariff has forced a reduction,
yet business is improving gradually.
There is a general confidence in the in
tegrity and wisdom of the congress
which will convene next December, and,
IN short, a generally better feeling in in
dustrial circles than has existed since '92.

A few years ago the Board OF Visitors
of the University of Virginia established
the degree of Doctor Of Philosophy. in
order Ito cultivate more fully the love
of letters: to encourage Independent and
scholarly research, and to further the art
of literary expression To receive
this degree. the student must not only be
a Bachelor of Arts or Master Of Arts. but
have passed examinations in the post
graduate courses of two schools, and have
prepared and printed a dissertation. ac-
cepted by the professors Of the schools,
as showing independent research. or
original treatment OF some subject be-
longing to the school, chosen as his
major study.
At the recent commencement Of the
University this degree. with some spe-
cial remarks of commentator, was con-
ferred upon Professor Hampden G. Bagby,
of Hampden- Sidney College. Seven years
ago Professor Bagby took the degree Of
Master OF Arts at the University. and
three years later that Of mechanical en-
gineer. but as he has now gotten the
highest academic honor of the Universe
~. he will perforce have TO look else
where for new fields OF conquest He
will no doubt find them and acquire them.
as he is not yet twenty-eight.
