The event of the season for the Treasury
Department is the growth virtually of the
gold reserve to SOL ,042 1896, so that there is
now again over a million of "lree gold" at
Secretary Carlisle's command. There is still
about $6,O0O,OO0 Of foreign gold 10 come to
the treasury from the syndicate that last
February contracted, in exchange for A per
cent. bonds TO furnish the treasury with
3500,O00 ounces OF gold and protect the re
serve from the raids that had made previous
purchases of gold futile The greatest pos
sible advantages have been derived by the
country from this transaction. which was
much criticised when 1t was first made
public. The expectation of gold has been
stopped, the reserve has been protected, con
fidence In the intention and ability OF the
treasury to keep all forms Of money at par
has been created, enterprise is resumed, FAC
tories have opened. wages have risen, bust
ness has picked up and prosperity is in sight.
TIE present Improved condition of affairs is
very directly connected with this one bond
sale and the help II brought from the worlds
most powerful capitalists aud fnanciers.
But for it we should have lapsed probably
10 one day more TO the silver basis, with dis
astrous results TO every legitimate business
interest.

fore the election comes of, as the party will
be 80 Disguised and disheartened that very
many of its voters will not go to the polls
at all, and the result of last fall will be in
tensified. The Democratic party can no
longer win on the mere emblem of Jackson
and the hickory tree any more than the Re-
publicans can win on the bloody shirt-a
fact which the sensible leaders of that party
have realized. The people of this country
at the present time want living issues aud
beneficial measures. 1t is TO be hoped that
the voters of the country will not commit
the miserable folly of nominating Legis-
lative ticket that will support Mr. Gibson
for the United States Senate.

are now being pursued in this State. Unless
the people are left free and untrammeled to

rs danger ahead. The whole truth is that
the present organization of the Democratic
party of the State does not possess the con-
fidence of the people; and the open and
unseemly wrangle that It is making in the
primaries is sorely exasperating the honest,
independent and thoughtful men of the
