Industrial Exposition.
The Sun.

The products and industries OF the United
States ought to he well represented at the ex.
position to be held In Mexico next year, and
at that in Guatemala, and at that In Montreal,
and that in Berlin. and that in budapest.
The international industrial exposition is a
modern institution which Is steadily grow
ing IN favor all over the worla, and is a most
important agency in promoting the enlarge
ment OF commercial exchanges between all
countries everywhere.
We were poorly represented at 'he Kioto
exposition of this year, and also nj 'h9 Brus-
ssls exposition: and we have never been we'll
represented at an EXPOSITION in any foreign
country. Ii is very different with England,
which takes an interest in all Industrial OK
positions; thus she extends her trade every
where.
The exposition that Is TO be held Mt Moscow
next year under tine authority of the Russian
government, Will not he OF an international
character, but will be strictly Russian. Not
very long ago the snltan's government
favored project for the hcldine of an inter
national exposition Mt taptipopie i'm 1890;
but rho project has been abandoned, for obvi.
Gus reasons. There has been an exhibition OF
another kind this year in the Turkish empire.
There are two countries Mexico and Cam
ada adjacent to the United States, at the
exposition in each of which we ought surely
to nave full representation.

WHAT BONDS MEAN.

No sophistry can blind the eyes OF the
people to the fact that bond issues mean
debts, and that the one to come with the
New Year Is pecessitated. as were the
three preceding, because the cost Of run.
ming the Government has been greater
than the income Of the Government pro.
vided by the Democratic tariff measure.
That and that alone is the reason.
The credit OF the country does not de.
pend on the maintenance OF the so-called
gold reserve, although the reserve is be-
come highly important factor in the
governments financial system since the
Indirect result of earning less money
than we spend was n direct attack on
the reserve funo. But as we
have already pointed out ana as is
quite easily recognised the so-csllcd gold
reserve was scarcely heard OF before the

Those Department Stores.
Buffalo Times.

imtc.
It's wonderful the business the big retail
stores transact. IL would seem that. with the
thousands OF dollars worth of goods bought
each day the consumers woule some day get
such supply on hand that they would not
need any more, but IL never seems to act that
way. Tons OF goods are carried from these
stores day by day in the arms of the female
shoppers, and the delivery wagons distribute
tons more, but the same thing goes on next
day, being more than doubled on every bar
gain day.
These "dry goods stores are more than en-
titled 20 that name, for they really sell almost
anything. Glassware, woodenware, crockery,
silver, leather goods, agricultural iEple-
ments, carpets, gentlemen's furnishing goods,
paper, jewelry, and countless other things
are 10 be found in the so.called big dry goods
store, and at such astonishing prices that the
stores that make o specially OF any OF the
above enumerated articles have in the past
few years suffered very much by trying TO
keep up an unequal competition with these
mammoth concerns, who buy in such enor-
nous quantities that they- can Afford to under.
sell small competitors.
The trade barometers that speak most
loudly Of the great steps made In the retail
business are the advertising columns of the
great daily papers through which the mer-
chants place themselves in touch with the
people. These papers are flied with the
glittering stories Of great bargains, day after
day, the merchants using columns where for
merly they used inches A few years ago the
retail merchant who printed a two. three or
four column adver isement in the daily
papers was regarded as veritable trade
Napoleon. New that is not Mt all astonish-
ing. In fact the merchant who attempts 10
keep abreas. OF his fellows has 10 do so to
keep in the race. Page advertisements are
not unusual now.

to make an outpost of II for tho protec-
tion OF tbs nations credit because the
country was not earning enough money
to pay running expenses. AT the time
that it first became apparent that the
gold reserve would have to be stocked up
we venture the opinion that not one per-
son in ten Thousand had ever Before
heard OF the reserve. The newspapers
hsd to study up the subject and. explain
it to their readers. We guess that good
many men associated with finance and
banking did not have thoroughly clear
idea of what it was except in a general
way that it was back stop for gold de-
mands that in this prosperous country
was hardly necessary excep: for the senti-
ment OF the thing.
From that day 20 this we have heard OF
little else than the gold reserve in connec-
tion with the nations finances. Anybody
who has followed with faith the develop
ment OF the financial education of the
President the past two years would be
led to suppose that the gold reserve was
the Keystone of our financial system and
the basis Of credit OF the government in
stead OF being only a handy feature of
bookkeeping designed to keep creditors
feeling good. The reserve was in the ma
ture of what our card playing friends call
"kitty" 1t was maintained and kept
full, and everybody who held Government
obligations knew that the "kitty" could
be drawn upon at any time, aad was at
peace accordingly.
Because Government revenues have been
for two years below Government expendi-
lures it has been necessary to borrow
money. And because of the bankruptcy
tending condition of the Governments
affairs the gold reserve has been fire.
quently drained. Money has been bor-
rowed to fill 1t up, but large part of this
money has gone to pay running expenses,
either directly or indirectly. Meanwhile
the President has developed the "endless
Gus pour ng in OF greenbacks to be ex-
changed for gold and then their pay ing
out TO be again seat in for more gold, to
the despoiation of the reserve. This
hunger for gold from the reserve was,
however, never known until President
CLEVELAND came into office and business
began to run behind. No sophistry can
deny that plain fact which probably
speaks mere largely to the "plain people,
than any explanations can do. AS
matter OF fact. President CLEVELAND, in
advancing his endless chain theory,
neglects to say any thing Of the factor of
gold that is brought to the Treasury in
exchange for greenbacks, but tells us only
of the avalanche OF greenbscks that are
sent in to exchange for gold. But the
pumping" process is not all one way
by eny means. In the thirty-one months
up to October last the "endless chain"
worked this other way as it always has.

OF course we must have money and
have it at once and ''to protect the gold
