If we mistake not, the business
of the country is on the eve of new
development. The days of panie
and doubt, distrust and failure arc
about past. The face of every Cit,
izen is turned toward brighter
times, though we of Southwest
Louisiana have probably had less
reason for complaint than the citi,
zens of any other section of the
country.-LCrowley Signal,

that silver has not yet been re

The financial debate which is

each other, as well as the public
whom they are attempting to in
struct, each from his stand point
on this abstruse subject.

tive only want to restore the
conditions which existed in 1872,
say the 16 to l crOakers. That is,
they want less than a million silver
dollars in circulation, instead OF
the six hundred millions of silver
now in use. They want an inha-
ted paper currency, without specie
for it's redemption. They want to
get rid of our six hundred millions
OF gold, practically none. of which
we had i'll 1873. This is what they
mean when they clamor for res
toration of the conditions of 1878.

Robert Il. Lincoln is reported
as saying III want no Presidency

to the assassination of his father
Abraham Lincoln by Booth.
President Garfield was also assas-

also attempted to take the lives of
other Presidents of the United
States, notably that of Andrew
jackson, but that has not de-
tered others from taking their
places. Neither do we be.

the Republican party. The crown
ed heads of Europe have also been
assassinated. Anarchists have
even attempted to take the life of
as good monarch as Queen Vic
toria. The Emperor of Russia
was ushered into eternity few
years ago, by the explosion Of a
bomb thrown by Nihillst, but
that exercised no deterrent effect
upon his son, who Immediately
'stepped into his shoes" While
there is much truth in the maxim.
that uneasy lies the head that
wears d crown, there is too much
fascination, honor and grandeur
in such an exalted office, to be re-
sisted by an ordinary individual.

Il ESULT OF THE WILSON
BILL.

Attention has been called to
BradStrect's report that more than
900 900 industrial workers have
received voluntary advances i'll
wages, averaging 10 per cent,
within a couple Of months. A Re
public Ill organ correctly says that
..nGthing Like this has ever before
been known 1t was not known
during President Harrison's adj
miuistration. 1t was not known
during the four years the Mchln-
ley law was in force. Wages were
not generally advanced soon after
that law look effect, nor at any
time before its repeal. Such a
ding as Il voluntary Increase OF
wages on a large scale was unheard
of under that law. Reductions
were made in every part OF the
country, but no advances at all OF
consequence except few resulting
from strikes.
The Wilson bill was passed last
August. Sections Of it went into
effect soon afterwards and other
sections later, some not until the
beginlling Of 1895. 1t is worthy OF
note that tie upward movement
Of wages lad its beginning i'll Sep
TENDER and has been growing ever
since.
Ii began in the wooden mills
one Of the results Of the placing o
wool Oh the free list. 1t spread tC
other textile industries aud thel
became general. AS soon as the
winter was over reports Of advan
ces in wages were received daily
The list for April includes 81 il
which the increase was as much az
per cent. In all but six cases
the increase was 10 per cent o.
over. In 10 it was 10 and in sew
eral others from II to 20 per cent
Ia the case of the Cincinnati cloak
makers, where 1000 persons were
employed, an advance, of 20 pei
cent was given. The wages of 10,
OGO brick manufacturers On The
hudson River were Increased from
10 to 25 per cent. One report fol
April shows 10 per cent increase
in the wages of $4,000 employees
and another a similar advance III
the pay of $4,000. These were al
mill hands in Massachusetts. One
of the 10 per cent advances that
month affected 10000 men in
Youngstown. 0.
None of these employees are in
cluded i'll the l ,OO0,0 covered by
Bradstreei's report, which goes
back only a couple of months
The total number whose wages
have been increased since the Viii.
son bill took effect is probably not
far from 100000. And a con.
servative estimate places the aver.
age advance at 10 per cent. For
every dollar received by these g..
100000 wage-earners under the
Mckinley bill, $1.10 is received
under the Wilson law. If thei,
aggregate monthly earnings a,
mounted then to $lGO,000,OOO a
month-an average Of $50 per man
they amout now to Sll0,O0O,OOO
"a clear gain of $lO,OOO;OOO a
month or 1920, 100000 a year tc
the wage earners Of the country.
If the reduction Of the tariff un
der TIE Wilson bill has not been d
leading factor in this wage advan.
cling movement, why is it that the
advances have been confined III
most part to our protected indust
rics? viii some high tariff Re.

We VICTIS.


Of a very short time, when the
proposition to open the Mats OF
The United States to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to /, will not only peter
out in ignominious disgrace, but
when those public men who advo-
Gated it will be remanded to popu
lar disfavor and distrust. There
is nothing whatever to sustain the
proposition. 1t will not bear the
least analysis, either Of fact or ar
gument. Where it is not a sharp
device Of the silver mine owners to
bunco the unthinking, it is dazed
day dream Of the unthinking to
pay hundred-cent debts with fifty.
cent dollars. Reduced to simple
proportions and stripped Of mis-.
leading verbage, it demands that
the people shall be taxed to sus-
tain mints to be conducted for the
sole purpose Of turning cotfee-pots
and teaspoons and lump ore into
cart wheels labeled tone dollar"
each cart wheel good III tho civil
lied world, except in America, for
Just one-half it's face value. The
plea for this monstrosity is crazy
plea supported by distorted his
tory, bogus statistics and false
promises.
Silver dollars are already le.
gal tender to any amount. There
are already in existence ten times
more silver dollars than the people
can or do handle-forty times
more than had been in existence
prior to the act of 1873, discontin-
uing the coinage of silver dollars.
The walls of the Treasury are
fairly bursting with silver dollars
and silver bullion the people do
not want and cannot use, yet whose
keep costs the taxpayers millions
of dollars.
IT the scheme to melt down the
refuse silver of Christendom could
be adopted, it would not only con.
vert America into dumping
ground for all the tramp silver in
the world, but it would drive ont
gold and relegate us to a silver
recommendation, with the value of
the dollar unit reduced one half.
1t would not increase the volume
of the currency.
1t would diminish it.
1t would not relieve any honest
debtor OF his Indebtedness. 1t
would, on the contrary, collapse
American credit abroad and des-
troy business confidence at home.
1t would, whilst diseracing the
National honor, strike a blow at
the National prosperity, from
which it would not recover in half
a century.
Already and everywhere the PEG.
| pie are awakening to the stupen-
dous delusion which has been
sought to be put upon them. The
beaten and baftled disseminatOrs
Of this delusion, driven from the
field Of fair debate, are seeking the
Businesses Of a secret society from
which to wage a dark lantern war
upon the advocates of sound,
stable currency. The issue is sim
ply one of good money against bad
money, and there is but one course
for the friends of honest dollars,
and that is the brave, straightfor.
ward course to force the fighting
into the open and make it a fight
to a finish. There must be no
equivocation, no haliing, no dou-
bic dealing.
The Democrats of Kentucky
have spoken in thunder tones.

the fray. Let the word along the
line be-
ale who dalIles is a bastard,
He who doubts is damncd.o
