LOUISVILLE COURIER JOURNAL

LOUISVILLE CoURIER-J JOURNAL:
Although congress has the
hardihood to refuse the pres
ident express authority to issue
gold bonds, thereby entalling
upon the taxpayers of the coun-
try an additional and entirely
unnecessary interest burden of
over $40, 100000 upon the latest
bond issue alone, there are
members of congress who are
talking about passing a resolu
ton censuring the president for
his course in protecting the
national credit. By all means
let them pass such a resolution.
Nothing could more sharply
define the issue between Mr..
Cleveland and congress. But
in passing it they would do well
to remember that another con-
gress once passed such a resolu-
ton censuring Andrew jackson,
with the result Of making Old
Hickory's ultimate victory all
the more emphatic.

country recently pointed out,
a country of comparatively few
very wealthy people and a mass
Of very poor people. No Amer
lean farmer or laborer could
support his family upon the
pittance which sufiices to sus-
tain the family of the ordinary
Mexican laborer. 1t is, in fact,
a country in which the greatest
poverty exists, and it is also n
fact that the depreciation of
Mexican coin has not benefited
the poor of Mexico, but, on the
contrary has only decreased
their capacity to buy the bare
necessities of life. Let the
American farmer or laborer,
who listens to the specious
arguments of the free silverite,
remind the latter that the
condition of Mexico's laboring
classes is not such as to sus-
tain the statement that free
silver has been or is a blessing
to that nation, and Mexico's
condition offers no proof that
free silver, and the consequent
of American silver
dollars can benefit the people
Of the United States. A high
tariff profits only the manufact-
1ring class, and the people pay
5he tax. The depreciation of
American silver coin will be
equivalent to an increase in the
ariff in inverse proportion to
he fallin the value of said coin,
md the manufacturer will reap
he profit, while a few more
colossal fortunes will be built
Up to increase the depth and
width Of the chasm already
awning between American la
'or aud American capital.

FREE SLL YER IN MExU0.

s'free and unlimited" friends of
silver about Mexico's prosper
ity on account of the deprecia-
ton of the white metal, at the
same time urging that the free
and unlimited coinage Of silver
at Is to l by this country will
raise the value Of the metal.
There is considerable inconsis-
tency in these arguments,
which leaves one in doubt as to
what the advocates of free silver
anticipate would be the result
of the adoption Of their views
by this government. All argu-
msnts exhibiting Mexico's in
creased prosperity under the
free coinage of fifty-cent silver
dollars are coupled with the
fact that this condition is due
TO the deprecated value of
silver, which serves to keep
Mexico's money at home, in
stead Of being sent abroad for
foreign good. Yet in the next
breath, the silver advocate will
say that the United states can
rehabilitate silver by the free
aud unlimited coinage oft, and
then the return of prosperity to
this country must follow. But
as like conditions are not pre-
dicted, it is not plain how like
results are to be expected. The !
fact is, however, that the free
coinage Of silver by this gov
eminent would put this country
financially in a condition very
similar to that in which Mex
leo finds herself, and the ques-
ton is, would prosperity be the
RESULT It cannot be denied that
Mexico has profted in a certain
way to great extent by the
depreciation Of her principal
money metal. Many new indus
trial enterprises have been es-
tablished, and foreign capital
has flowed into the country to
purchase her lands and employ |
her laborers, because a foreign
dollar Is equivalent to two Of
Mexico's md the price of land
and labor has not increased in
inverse proportion to the re-
duction in value Of her coin.
Capitalists realized that the
costs Of production in Mexico
must remain practically the
same, while the selling price Of
products must increase in pro-
portion to the price of those
products in foreign markets,
and no doubt a few years more
of such conditions in Mexico
will witness the amassing of
numbers Of such colossal for
tunes as those of the Wander
bilts and the Goulds. Thus the
sum of Mexico's material wealth
has been and will be enormous
ly increased. But what of the
condition of her people? A
handful Of millionaires do not
constitute a nation. The labor
ing classes must of course profit
to the extent that a great
er number than heretofore
will receive employment, but
inasmuch as the deprecia-
ton Of Mexican coin to one
half its former value must
act with the same force as
would an increase Of 100 per
cent IN the Mexican tariff on

HOW A MAN GOES TO SLEEP.
slulnber Begins at the Feet, and the Sense!

slu1nber Begins at the Feet, and the Senses
Become Dormant One After Another.
"Order is heavens first law" and
the old truth is manifested even in the
process of going to sleep. When man
drops off to sleep, his body does not do
so all a. once, so to speak. Some senses
become dormant before others and al
ways in the same order. AS he-becomes
drowsy the eyes close, and the sense Of
seeing is at rest It is quickly followed
by the disappearance of the sense Of
taste. He next loses the sense Of smell,
and then after short interval the tym-
panum becomes iIsensible to sound, or
rather the nerves which run to the brain
from 1t fail to arouse any sense of hear
ing.
The last sense to leave is that Of
touch, and in some representative peo-
pie it is hardly ever dormant. Even in
.heir case, however, there is no discrim-
hating power or sense of what touched
them. This sense is also the first to re-
turn upon awakening. Then hearing fol-
lows suit, after that taste, and then the
eye becomes able to flash impressions
back to the brain. The sense of smell,
oddly enough, though it is by no means
the first to go, is the last to come back.
The same gradual loss Of power is OBJ
served in the muscles and sinews as
we'll as III the senses Slumber begins
at the feet and slowly spreads up the
limbs and trunk until it reaches the
brain, when Inconsistencies is complete
and the whole body is at rest. This is
why sleep is impossible when the feet
are cnld.-Nsw York World.

A LITTLE TOO eRoTEsoUE.
The Rumor That Mr.. Gladstone Was About
to "Enter the Church,

The Rumor That mr. Gladstone was ABOUT
to Center the Church.
The story about Mr.. Gladstone's sup
posed intention to etl5er the church at
the age of So might be said to exhaust
the utmost capacity Of credulity. Mr..
Gladstone renewed interest in theology
has been vigorously attested since his
retirement from public life by copious
writings on abstruse points of doctrine,
but the rumor about his "taking or
ders" is little too grotesque even for
the contents bills of the evening papers.
There is a certain attraction, how
ever, in the idea of Mr. Gladstone as a
curate eclipsing his vicar and overaw-
ing the bishop of his diocese. To him
preferment ought to be rapid, and Ell
ther Lord Rosebery or Lord Salisbury
would be only too glad to make him
archbishop of Canterbury at the earliest
possible moment
Having been the most tremendous
personal force in politics for 80 years,
Mr.. Gladstone might easily become the
most formidable primate since the days
of Beckett. Nothing is impossible to
this marvellous man, but all the same
we do not expect him to submit him
self to ordination. London Illustrated
