THE St. Paul Globe, on Sunday last,
made its first appearance under its new
management, and it was in every way a
fine specimen of modern journalism.
Like all the Sunday papers it was four
times as large as anyone has any use
for, but it was tull OF bright and fresh
matter, and its editorial columns were
of such character as to challenge re-
pect even of those who are opposed tc
it politically. Its specialfeatures showed
rare enterprise. and an appreciation o
the character Of matter which the people
want. IF the initial number Of the new
Globe is fair indication OF what TIN
future oft will be, then has St. Pau
ard the state of Minnesota democratic
organ worthy of it.

THE First National Bank has been
struggling with the intricasies of the in
come tax during the past week. 1t is
not only very complicated affair, but
it's provisions are as odious as they are
onerous. In the matter of deducting
losses from income there are features OF
palpable inequity. Losses sustained
during 1894 may not be deducted un-
less the transaction leading up to those
losses were begun that wear. A note
taken in 1898 and perfectly good when
taken, which natures in 1894, and is
then found to be uncollectable cannot be
deducted, for the interpreters of the law
very sagely say that the loss was made
when the note was taken. This is only
single instance of the many absurd fea.

The following letter from a citizen OF

there, will interest many people in this

SOMEBODY has discovered that the

chapter. 10th verse, reads as follow s.:
"And Abraham weighed TO Ephraim the
silver which he had named in the aud
fence of the sons Of Heth, four hundred
shekles Of silver, current money with the
merchant" Elizabeth Cady Stanton
says of this in the Woman's Tribune:
flour bimetalists in the halls OF legis-
lation were more cOnversant with sacred
histo, v, they might get fresh inspiration
from the views of the Patriarchs on
good money.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton is not close
reader of the pentateuch. or she would
have observed that it distinctly says
that Abraham " weighed" to Ephraim
the silyer-he did not count it out. A
a matter of fact, silver at that time was
worth, as expressed in United States
money, little more than dollar al
ounce. Yes, silver was good money
then, by weight. It is good none!

THE GREAT CRIME.

stricken from the circulating medium OF
the country. To this great crime is at

depression-ior the signs Of the times are
surely pointing to renewal OF all IN
dustries and all conditions OF business,

great crime" this country passed
through just such an era OF depression
stagnation and hardship, but not an IN
timation then that it was due to the
act of 1873, which failed to recognize
the silver dollar as unit. Had the idea
been then suggested. and it was then
that it's effects should have been felt I!

it is the lack OF silver due to the law o
1873 which is at the bottom Of all thu

SENATOR yEsC GETTING SICK.

Senator Vest, of Missouri. who has been
one of the most blatant of the free-sil-
yer hun5uggery advocates, is al the
Sweet Springs in Missouri. and lac has
given out the following as his views Of
the case:
There must be a settlement of the
silver question without equivocation. We
must determine to adopt the gold stand
ard permanently, retire the greenbacks,
and peroctuate the national banks with
their paper based exclusively on gold, or
we must open our mints 20 silver
Il believe in real b,metallism. the use
OF both gold and silver as standard
money but If we must have one metal
or the other, | would take silver. for we
would then at least be independent in
kite and the helpless victim OF the Roths-
childs syndicate.
This has desparng sort of tone. Vest
is getting sick. We don't see why any
of the things Vest makes unconditional
shall happen. While We can have gold
as the standard of value we must never
theless use silver for all small transac-
tons. and this. too. without combining
banking to the national banks. We can
have our metallic money after that or
der. and have State banks too, whose
notes shall be payable on demand in
gold But if we must have monometal-
ism. for Heavens sake. defend us from
silver. The man who carries ten silver
dollars around in this torrid weather in
his pockets will take bankruptcy in
preference TO wealth on such terms.
