Fourth.
 Tacoma, Wash, June 30.-Indications point to an old-fashioned Orangemen's fight here on the Fourth of July The ce lebration committee has been arranging for several weeks past for the biggest eel ebration in the northwest, including a procession two miles long. Hibernians ard other Irish societies are taking a deep interest, having contributed money and written communications saying they would display no flag save the stars and stripes. The American Protective asso- ciation refuses to march with the Hi- hernians, and have decided to parade and celebrate all by themselves. While the big parade will be in the afternoon, the American Protective association pa rade takes place in the morning. They promise to turn out 4O00 men. The Hi- hernian citizens who were getting up the general celebration are indignant. The feeling is running high

THE WINNING TICKET,

The Peoples party of Sherman eoUn-
ty met in convention Saturday and
placed in nomination a ticket that will
be found winner when the votes are
counted in November next.
The men composing the ticket are
competent, honorable and enjoy the
respect and confidence Of the people,
regardless of politics. and while there
we're others mentioned, nominated and
voted for that were just as good, and
just as capable Of filling the Offices
with honor to themselves and their
constituents, the men placed upon the
ticket are the choice Of the majority,
and will be supported by every Popu-
list in the county and will draw large
vote from the other political organiza-
tons
Populism constitutes the whole hope
of the people for reform and preserva-
ton of equal rights and personal lib
erty, and in electing township and
county officials of that faith, the
groundwork for national success is
laid.
A reform party should know no off
years, its principles are everlasting, all
important, its successes forming a pre-
cedent by which future events are
judged, by which present wrongs are
righted. Reform movements since his
tory began have formed the neuclus
around which liberty has been preser-
we'd and civilization advanced. Aud
so, POpulists of Sherman county, you
owe it to yourselves, and to future
generations, to make a showing this
fall that will guarantee a victory for
the county ticket, and pave the way
for the success of Populism and free
dom in 1896.

THE USUAL MESS.

time to feeding offai into the hopper of
The News serves up his usual conyen-
ton mess about rings and gangs.
Everyone is well acquainted with the
popularity of this being who must still
be called a man, owing to the failure of
learned psychologists to class him
with the extinct vertebrates that form
the connecting link between the lower
orders Of life and man.
Every political organization that
does not make him a beneficiary is a
ring, its actions controlled by a gang,
and its purposes corruption. The proof
of this statement can be found in the
political history of the county, and
admits of no argument. 1t will show
that his politics have always been
where money calls, no two campaigns
alike. His principles and honesty is an
ignis fatuus, his manhood an unknown
quantity. Just now he is on the block
for the highest bidder, and it is a ques-
ton whether he will be knocked down
to the Republicans or the Democrats.
Which ever side gets him will get him
dirt cheap and lose money on him at
that. The Republicans had him last
year, and they are not over anxious for
another try, the Democrats have nc
confidence in him, and the Populists
wouldn't have him at any price.
Thinking to enhance his marketable
price he bowls ring and gang, but it
won't work. The people have tumbled
long ago.
The Populist ticket is made up Of
the best citizens in the county, is the
choice Of the majority. is the creation
of no ring or gang, and viii be elected,
and the mud-slinger knows it. His
howl to the contrary is a dirty mess of
lies and mistatemsnts worthy only of
Tenant or the devil.

520000O0O0 The African gold field of
today is part of the British empire.
1t follows that the total British output
of the year is estimated at 100000
ounces, or a little over s03,OOO,OOO. The
British output will be more than half
the total output of last year.
Bat this does not tell the whole story
of British gold fields. Under the head
of "Other Countries" are included some
of the British gold mines. India is
now somewhat prominent in the pro
duction Of gold. The Chronicle pub
fishes the returns of four large mines
in British India, including two or three
small ones in their immediate vicinity,
for the first half of 1895. They show a
yield of 1924 ounces, It may be set
down as substantially correct that full
" one-half Of the gold being minted is
British; less than one-quarter of it is
American. Where the United States
produces 81 of the yellow metal the
British empire produces more than 8.
Nor is this all. No inconsiderable part
of the gold mine properties in the
United States are owned by English
capitalists.
It may be said that s20G,9O0,0 1000 added

to supply the legitimate demand for
increase in the full legal-tender money

bered that a great deal is required in
the arts, and that boarding is a still
more important factor. The arts are
supposed to absorb about 100000 a
year. But boarding is the greater aud
more remarkable factor. Some idea Of
what Is going on ia the these two re-
speets can be formed from the figures

NARROWTNa Id 4 PoINT

It is satisfactory to note that the
goldbug forces are dropping all pre-
tense at bimetallism and coming to an
attempt to defend undiluted gold
monometallism. The last pamphlet in
the New York Reform club series dir
eotly advocates the single gold stand
ard and endeavors to demonstrate that
it is superior to bimetallism. 1t reas-
serts the claim that gold has fixed an
Interchangeable value and therefore is
the best yardstick with which to meas
ure values. The goldbugs are being
rapidly driven to take their stand upon
this position and we may hope that be-
fore the national election the issue will
be clearly defined between the double
and single standard and that the cut
fetish who are trying to beclOud the
issue shall be compelled to get on one
side or the other. There is no possibi-
lily of maintaining a claim that gold
has not appreciated in value because
of the increased burden thrown upon
it, and if the gold men can be forced TO
make such assertions and base their
case upon them their lack of veracity
will be apparent to the masses who
have made no study of the financial
issue.
But truthfulness or consistency cut
a small figure in the mass of gold liter
allure that is being unloaded on the
country. For instance, in Senator
Morrill's article in the New York indie
pendent, the senator declares it a gross
falsehood to assert that the act of 1878
deprived the silver dollar of legal-ten-
der prerogatiye, yet within the same
column he uses this language
"The government is compelled to
hoard its pOnderous tons of silver and
humbly to issue instead certificates of
Indebtedness for which gold may be
wanted, whether obtainable or not"
Since silver retains its legal preroga-
tives, why does this government redeem
silver certificates with gold? If the
silver can be used to pay debts in the
same manner as gold why reduce the
silver to the position of token money
valuable only because it is redeemed in
gold, and thus contribute further to
the appreciation of gold, the demand
for it and the drain on the gold re-
reserve? Simply and solely to carry
out the plot to discredit silver, to make
it appear incapable of maintaining its
place by the side of gold and to facili-
tate the fastening of the gold standard
on the country.

DID you ever stop to consider the

currency and another raid made upon

II appears that the agricultural de-
partment has made q very thorough in
vestigation regarding the alleged beef
combine and obtained evidence to show
that there vas some sort of agreement
between the leading packers Of Chicago
by which they were enabled to regulate
the price Of beef The impression con
veyed by dispatches from Washington
is that the combine still exists and is
understood TO be planning for another
advance in meats. It seems that It has
been decided to place the evidence OBJ
tanned in the hands of the attorney
general Of Illinois, presumably with
the understanding that he viii institute
proceedings to break up the combine.
in which he viii probably have what
ever further assistance the federal au-
thorities can give. If it be fact that
there is a beef trust-and the evidence
made public seems to show pretty
clearly that there everybody not in
terested in it viii hope that prompt
and vigorous measures be taken to
break it up, which is probably al that
can be expected, though it may be pos
sible under the Illinois antitrust law
to punish the members of it. From
what has been ascertained it appears
that the combine got all the benefit of
the advance in beef, none of it going to
the cattle raisers. Further develop
ments will be regarded with very gen
eral interest, for it is a matter that
concerns the whole people.
