rises, and vice versa; and observe also
how, in 1890, when there was prospect of
free silver legislation in the United States,
silver rapidly rose and gold fell, the two
approaching each other until the prospect
of such legislation vanished when they
again commenced to separate further and
further. (See same tendency shown in
Chart E in 1S9O)
SILVER PRICES NEARLY CONSTANT.
Contrast these disheartening fig
ures with the following index numbers of
twenty staple Chinese commodities, COM
piled by Consul Wetmore at Shanghai,
and showing the comparative stability of
silver prices in the slver-using countries:
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1895-09-26

rose in China between 1878 and 1892 nearly
so per cent, commodities as measured in
silver fell about 10 per cent In other
words silver and commodities kept to-
gether and gold rose. Similarly, the royal
commission declared in 1883 that the pur-
chasing power Of silver in India had not
fallen.
FEW RESULTS.
The results of an approaching standard
are so hidden in the very processes of or
binary business that until we stop to look
carefully for them we are not aware how
serious, nay how fatal, they may become
Our time will permit only few illustra-
tons. Between 1874 and 1885 gold appreci-
ated so that the holders of the public debt
of England could buy in the latter year
f2O0, 900 worth more of all commodities
on the average with the principal of the
debt as it was in 1874 than they could
have bought with it in 1874. In other
words, the property and industry Of Eng
land were robbed of 81, 900 900, 900 in eleven
years and a present made of it to the
holders of her bonds.
The United States paid off about $780,
100000 of her debt between 1870 and 1884,
Yet if we reckon it in the eight commodi-
ties, beef, corn, wheat, OATS pork, cotton,
coal, and bar iron, the debt was nearly
so per cent larger afterwards than be-
fore.
In 1866 we could have paid the national
debt Of this country with 14,0OO 900 bales
of cotton. In 1894 it would have taken ST.
OO0,O 900 bales to pay what remained due al
though meantime we had paid "a, 600, 900
bales on it in principal and interest," In
1866 we could have paid it with 1000, OOO 900
bushels of wheat. Last fall we still owed
1000, 900, 900 bushels after paying 5000, OOO,-
900 bushels in principal and interest,"
The burden Of the gold standard on the
world could be fully measured only in
blood and sweat and tears.

which prices had once accommodated

Politicians Are Uneasy.
WASHINGTON, April 2O-The Illinois
convention ia June 10 regarded BY the
politiCions here as the opening Of Che ma
tional Campaign Of 1895, and closely fol.
lowed, as il viii be, by the Kentucky
state convention, it iS expected that the
campaign will thenosEorth rage as
fierCsly as IL lt were 70 find its end this
year, instead Of next.
IL, as is now indicated 90 probable,
the democratic party shall nominate a
candidate on a free coinage platform,
an abandonment OF the party and plat-
form by the Eastern and Northern dem
oCrats is threatened by their rOprea enta-
tivss. These men view the Developments
in the West with the ComposuFe OF those
who have already counted their losses.
The growth OF che silver sentiment Is
not belittlsed in any way, but ell the
signs are held to indicate OF least q tenn.
pOrary, il not q permanent, obllteratiOn
Of party lines and resulting new fOrmR-
tions for at least this campaign.
In Kentucky, republicans aud demo-
Gratis alike stand shoulder to shoulder in
favor of silver and together unite in de-
nouncing Secretary Carlisle for his Of
forts to preserve the integrity Of the ma
tionsl currency. In Colorado, ex-Rsprs.
sentative SiDley, democrat, was feaSted
and Hsted and listened to by republican
silver men. In Illinois, the democrats,
by adopting a free silver platform, hope
to attract large number Of republicans
to their standard. In Tennessee, q
sound money convention is TO bs held
next month upon a non partisan basis.

Congress man Patterson, whose position

OF that speech the Washington PoSt
this morning said; mo one knows better
than John J. Ingalls, that the South Ia

the South had no more bitter antagonist.
He waved the bloody shirt Rloft on any
and all occasions, exhibiting even his
wonderful vocabulary to rsvilS and
abuse the Southern section. II is con.
siderad quite remarkable that the olive
branch Of peace, sWsetly resting upon q
silver platter, should be held out by Sem

ALLEGED MINT ROBBER ON TRIAL
James Heney Had Sold $4,000 Worth
OF Gold TO Reno Man.

Carson, June 15.-The preliminary ex-
animation of James Heney, charged
with stealing gold from the mint, was
commenced before Commissioner Ed
wards today. Melter and Ref1ner Har-
ris testified that there was no way to
prevent employees from stealing the bull
lion. They were not searched when
they left the mint. He had discovered
the shortage in the mint in February
last and Immediately ordered a clean
up. There was found to be a shortage
of 4,067.99 ounces of geld and a surplus
of 3,0l9.4S ounces of silver. The total
shortage amounted in money to $75,-
549.75. The gold must have been stolen
in the forms of granulations, as bars
would be missed If they were taken out
of the mint. One bar had been stolen.
H. H. Beck of the Reno reduction
works said that Heney brought gold
bullion to the reduction works two
years ago. The first time he brought
$4,000 worth. Heney said he had leased
mine which was beginning to pay
and he wanted the gold refined quietly
for fear that If the owner heard that the
mine was rich one he would not re-
new the lease. The first lot brought by
Heney was gold amalgam and the last
lot resembed grain gold. Beck had
helped Heney to dispose or three bars
Commissioner Edwards held Heney to
appear before the grand jury in $4,000
bonds

MILLIONS OF ACRES FOR SETTLERS
Results of the Carey Act VIII Bring I'm.

Washington, June 15-Millions Of
acres of lands are to be added to the
great homestead areas of the west The
last congress enacted a law providing
that the general government shall do
nate to each state in which there are
arid lands one million acres of such
lands on condition that the reclama-
ton Is done by the states. Already
Idaho and Wyoming have compiled
with all formalities of the law and have
taken steps toward securing the million
acres of land within their borders.
Lieutenant Governor Miles OF Idaho,
and e. Meade of Wyoming, both en-
gineers appointed by their respective
States, are here to complete final ar
rangements.
THE steps which are now being taken
to transform an immense section of arid
country into fertile and fruitful fields"
said the land commissioner, "will with
out doubt, be most far reaching in its
effect. Under the law, however, the
state is to undertake the work and is
to sell the lands in sections of not over
ls0 acres to any one person, for such
price as can be obtained. The govern
ment retains for five years, and II at
the end of that time the reclamation
appears to be permanent, the title to
the land passes to the state and thence
to the settler This means homeabhnd
farms for a multitude of people,"

Three hogs belonging to Ernst were
bitten. One of these has extensive tusks,
and Frank Ernst, a son about "a years of
age. was scratched by one of the tusks.
AS a consequence he was compelled to go
to Wymour where the poison was ex-
tracted. A neighbor. while burying a COW
which he had shot, allowed some of the
hand, and he went to Wymour. He re-
NAMED there until he was thought to be
safe, and then returned home. He has
since shown signs of hydrophobia, and
serious consequences are feared. Desper-
ate efforts have been made to clear the
nelghborhood of all animals affected.
