MORE BONDS.

According to New York dispatch
of JAN 81, the administration is pre-
pairing for another bond issue. The
dispatch says:
Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury VIM. e. Curtis, who arrived from
Washington last night, reached the
sub-treasury this morning about II
O'Clock, and had a conference with
representative of the leading foreign
banking houses in this city, including
August Belmont, who represents the
R0thschids; George f. Crane. of Bar
ing, Magoun x Co.. Ernest Thalman,
of Ladenborg. Thalman & Co.: James
Speyer, of Speyer x Co.; Isaac \. Selig-
man, of Scligman & Co.; Maurice
WormSer, Of WtrmSer & Co.: and Mr..
Meyer. of Lazard Freres. At 2:3O
O'Clock Mr.. Curtis left the sub-treas-
ury by a rear door, thus avoiding the
reporters, who had not been able to
obtain access to him at any time dur
ing the day After the assistant sec
etary had gone, Sub-TreaSurer Jordan
said
Mr.. Curtis came on from Washing
ton as representative of the secre-
tary Of the treasury to obtain infOr-
nation needed by the departmental and
he has left for the capitol with his
mission accomplished, but nothing has
been sold and nothing has been
bought. 1t is a fact that he came to
discuss the question of placing a gov
eminent loan. AS to the story of d
sterling loan, there is nothing in it,
"Mr. Jordan would say nothing fur
Their on the subject and all further
queries were met with the statement
that he had nothing further to say.
ut is confidently expected in finan-
will be announced within a few days,
and the amount of the loan is gener-
ally estimated at $1OO,0O0,OOO 1t is
known that the foreign banking in
| terests have expressed themselves in
| favor of four per cent bond, hence it
| is believed that the long term tours
| will be issued at price which will
yield the purchaser 81 per cent.
"There is excellent authority for
| saying that Mr.. Curtis was vested with
| authority to do more than ascertain
the views of the New York bankers
All those with whom he conferred are
| representatives of foreign firms of the
| leading financial standing Of Europe
| and those firms take the most prOmi-
| nent part in the conference. August
Belmont is credited with having
formed syndicate of foreign houses
to take the entire 500, 900. 900 loan
with the understanding that $75 ,O0O,-
GOO shall be placed abroad and $25 ,OOO,-
600 at home. The gold to pay for the
| bends will come, it is said, in great
part, if not as whole, from home
sources, but without recourse to the
United States treasury. 1t is known
| that MIR. Curtis communicated by tele-
graph in cipher with Secretary Carlisle
during the day and received reply,
| but the nature of the message is not
known"
So it seems that in order to keep the
country on ''gold basis" $1,000 100. 900
more of gold bonds are to be sold, $751;
| 100000 of which are to go to foreign
ers, the whole to place an additional
burden of 81. OOO, coo annually upon the
people as an interest charge.
What humbug and tomfoOlery!

The Western Hercules.

Hartford Comm Examiner: Igna-
titus Donnelly, in the REP REsENTA-
TIVE, of Minneapolis, is now endeav-
oring to show the unwisdom Of the
single tax doctrine; and, as in all 9th
er cases where the ''Sage Of Nininger'
speaks, he puts up splendid argu-
ment for his cause. He says that ii
Henry George had lived on Western
or Southern farm instead of in the
city of San Francisco, he never would
have written Progress and Poverty"
Mr.. Donnelly contends that under a
single tax regime the burden Of taxa
tion would rest entirely on the users
of farming lands, thereby making the
farmer even worse off than he now is.
This is very strong statement in the
face Of the claim Of the friends OF
single taXism that it's operation would
be just the reverse Of this. 1t looks as
if the prophet" himself would have
to come to the rescue of his people
against this onslaught Of the Western
Hercules. Then surely it would be
Greek meeting Greek.

STATE CAPITOL.

If Hennepin county and MinneapO-
lis would present their magnificent
court house and city hall to the sta te
as location for a capitol, the state
would be very foolish not to accept it
if there is any way in which the thing
could be legally done. ItWill take a
vote Of the people to relocate the state
capitol at any point in the state eX-
cept on the state lands in Kandiyohi
county, but we believe that if Mime
apolis were to offer her magnificent
building, now approaching completion,
for state capitol, the people, by a
large majority, would accept the prop
osition. Minneapolis is and always
will be largest city in the state. 1t is
by all odds the most beautiful, dis
tinction which, by reason Of it's loca-
tion and its magnificent system of
parks, it will always retain. It's just
as accessible to all parts Of the state
as ST. Paul is. The exchange would
save the people vast sum of money,
for the building would be all that the
state would need for capitol purposes
for century to come. What is the use
of throwing away millions Of dollars
unneceSSarily?

A Spartan Band.


Progressive Age: We are proud Of
the Spartan band of Populists in the
Minnesota legislature which voted
solidly from first to last for Populist
for senator. Mr.. Donnelly may we'll
feel proud of the complime ntpaid him
by those noble men of sterling princi-
pies. They will have their reward in
the good opinion of their constituents.
How different was it with the II Dem
OcratS who deserted their man and
fused with the Republicans at the
last. Here was case where fusion
exhibited and illustrated it's detini-
ton. There was fusion actual and
complete, for the Democrats represent,
or are supposed to represent, distinct
political principles, which principles
must be applied in the discharge of
the duties incumbent upon the man
who would be elected senator There
were political tests of a legitimate
character to be applied. The Demo
Gratis failed at the critical hour. The
Populists proved superior to the dis
advantages of the moment of defeat.
They were anchored in great princi-
pies. 1gnatius Donnelly does not
represent the state as senator,
but through the noble deciS-
ion of the Populist contingent in the
Minnesota legislature he represents
the eternal principles of the new
movement whose destiny is to liberate
mankind.

A SILVER BASIS.

There is every prospect that this
country will be upon a silver basis
within a short time. Indications are
that no such bill as proposed by Presi-
dent Cleveland in his last message can
get through the senate. The gold re-
serve is fast disappearing, and will, no
doubt. soon be exhausted. The gov
eminent will soon be unable to farther
redeem the greenbacks in the yellow
metal. When that moment arrives
the gold basis idea will be gone, and
the country will be on a silver basis.
That is what the gold bug papers are
saying and it is, no doubt, true. Let
it come. 1t will he happy day for the
country The transition will be made
so easy and the disturbance will be so
slight that people will be astonished.
1t will be just as it was when the
country resumed specie payment. No
body will be hurt and no damage will
be done. Then, perhaps, congress and
the President will see that free coin
age of silver is what the country wants
as a means Of restoring prosperity.
We say, again, let the silver basis
come, and the quicker the better!

GOOD FOR VEST.

In the senate on Wednesday last,
Mr.. Vest, of Missouri, presented pc
titiOn from the st. Louis chamber of
commerce, asking that the recommen-
dations of the President in his last
message be enacted into a law as soon
as possible. This was the text for one
of the most stirring speeches that the
senate has heard for many days. Mr..
Vest said that the Chamber of Com
merce of St. Louis did not represent
the feelings of the people Of Missouri
or of the country on the financial ques-
ton. He did not believe the people
favored a retirement of $500, 900, 900 of
greenbacks and treasury notes and the
substitution of no currency at all. He
did not believe the people favored gold
obligations running so years with in
tereSt aggregating $75,000,0 900 at the
end of that time. 1t was SELLS sug-
gestiOn that posterity should be left
to pay this bad debt The obliga tions
Of this senate were as binding toward
posterity as toward the present gener-
alton. 1t was as much the duty of the
senate to protect the future as to
adopt the suggestion Of the present TO
look after the present and let the fu-
! ture look after itself
1.-THE President has declared war on
silver" proceeded Mr.. Vest. ole
would make us accessories to this eff
! fort to fix the gold standard upon us.
The senator asked if any man really
believed the supposed emergency could
not be met by treasury payment in
silver. and yet the impression was be-
ing conveyed to the public that the
country was on the brink Of ruin. If
the President had the power he would
force uf to the single gold standard.
But" said Mr.. Vest, impressively. and
raising his right had in emphasis, $50
far as l am concerned, l will never
vote to issue bonds to secure gold and
place us on single gold standard"
What a pity that Minnesota has not

pointing the way for others who
are really anxious to reach buyers.
Very many Populists are farm
