priation for the loss on the recoinage
of worn and uucurrent silver coin for
the current fiscal year is exhausted and
no further transfer of such coin can be
made from the treasury TO the minis
for rccOinage. and as it is the intention
of the Secretary of the Treasury not 70
resume. for -he present at least, the
coinage of silver bullion purchased Un-
der the Sherman act. and as the stock
of gold bullion on hand at the mint at
New Orleans is very limited. the Sec
rotary has decided 20 discontinue all
coinage operations at that mint for the
present.
instructions have been given for the

The treasury now holds of silver bull

act. 157f640Q0 fine ounces, the cost Of
which was S124OS0.323. The coinage
value of The bullion silver dollars is
worth S17I96+00o If this bullion We're

HOME INDUSTRIES.

Some time since the Oregonian pub.
lished a lengthy editorial under the
head, "What to do for labor" and the
conclusion reached in that article was
that the present burdens Of taxation
resting upon private capital must be
so reduced that capitalists could afford
TO inaugurate industries wherein labor
might be employed. The Oregonian's
suggestions on this line are good, es-
pecially its proposition to SO reduce
the emoluments allowed public SER
wants as to correspond with the decrease
in pay and values in ordinary business
avocations, but still there is another
feature that is necessary to the life of
home industries, that is patronage.
Reduce taxation to the necessary re.
quirements of government, and there.
by make it possible for capital to be
invested in industries that will give
to labor, those industries
cannot continue to exist unless their
product is consumed at nome. When
ever the prejudice against the use of
domestic products is removed, and the
desire for something imported is less
among consumers gener-
ally, when all classes are content to
eat food and wear clothing produced
at home, then industries will spring
up all over the state giving ample en-
ployment to the surplus labor. Re-
duction of taxation is indeed q com.
nendable move toward inviting the
establishment Of home industries, but
healthy and liberal patronage being
more substantial is most effectual.

A JOKER JAILED.
How He Was Brought to Book for
Mean Trick.

How He Was Brought to Book for q
Mean Trick.
The sad story lately told in the Youths
Companion of newsboy who lost his
life as the result of practical joke, SO
called, reminds correspondent of an
incident that took place few years
ago in city of Tennessee.
A poor little girl was peddling apples
in a railway station. A train was about
starting, and almost at the last moment
a tall, ruffanly passenger stepped off
the car steps and called for fifteen
cents worth of the apples. The girl
counted them out, the man took them,
and then, as he moved toward the car,
began feeling in his pocket as if for the
money. The change was not forth
coming, he was on the steps, the train
began to move, the girl ran eagerly
after it, and there stood the man on the
platform, laughing at her.
By good luck, the mayor of the
city happened to be among the bystand-
ers-a war veteran, with tender heart
and contempt for all meanness. He
ran at once to the superintendent Of
fee, and said:
I'll give you hundred dollars to
stop that train and have it backed into
the station"
The offer was promptly accepted, a
telegram was dispatched, and very soon
the player of the joke found himself
in the hands of the police. Hepaid the
girl her fifteen cents, of course, and Of
Tered to pay her good deal more; but
the officers were inexorable, and to the
qualification of the lookers-on he was
marched off to mil

WHO TELLS THE TRUTH

The Oregonian says. "the state admin
istration, notorious for the violation
of every promise of retrenchment
in public expenses and reform in
methods that preceded its inaugura-
tion, has further lease of power for
two years." To this statement the
Salem Capital Journal rises and re-
marks: "The above is bare-faced lie
about our state officials as results will
show at the end of the first two years.
These officials are keeping the pledge
made the people to cut down the ex-
penses OF state government to meet
the conditions of hard times. Their
work at the end of two years will show
reductions of hundreds of thousands of
dollars"
There seems to be wide divergence
of opinion existing between these two
mighty purveyors of Republican doc
trines. Passing events and ref
ference to the columns of debts and
credits on the state treasurer's records
will easily determine who tells the
truth, and while we regret 'tis true,
those records will, to very great ex-
tent, substantiate the Oregonian's
statement. Reference to the appro-
priation bills passed by the last legis-
lature and sanctioned by the present
state officials, and those incurred in
conducting the various state insti-
tutions during the present year, ought
to be sufficient to convince even such
q blind supporter Of the state officials
as is the Capital journal, that the in
stances where the pledges of retrench-
ment have been kept are extremely

SETTLED THE DIFFICULTY.
After Cussing Each Other the Two Mis-
sour:ans Recame Cool Erienls.

After cussing Each Other the Two Mis-
sour;ans Became Good Friends.
"Cussin' OUT used to be one of the
ways of settling controversies in the
Ozark country. 1t originated, says
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat, with old
Uz Findley and John Carter. The
Findlcys came from Georgia. Old Uz
took a great interest in politics, and
wherever he went he was followed by
venerable negro named Bosen, whose
duty it was to steer his master home
ward when he needed help. At one Of
the early elections old Uz and John
Carter became very angry at each other.
It looked as if nothing but fight
could settle the issue between them,
when suddenly old u shouted: "Mr.
Carter, stand and be cusscd." Carter
removed his hat, walked out about ten
PAGES from the crowd and told old Uz
to go ahead. Findley removed his hat
and, walking out in front of Carter,
said, with deliberation and emphasis:
"Mr Carter, if this earth was one piece
OF parchment and the sea one basin of
ink, and every quill upon earth was one
quill, and had the power to use that
quill, that parchment and that ink,
would fall short, sir, of being able to
describe the corruption of your old
heart, SIR" Carter said never q word.
but stood with uncovered head until
Uz was through. Then he said: "Mr.
Findley, stand, sir, until I cuss YOU"
Old Uz bowed his head and Carter said:
"Mr. Firdley, had 1 all the talents ever
produced in Europe and America com
bined in solid phalanx, and was to un-
dertake to speak of you, would then
fall short of describing the corruption
OF your old heart, SIR" This settled
the difficulty. The two men resumed
friendly relations. The custom of
"cussin' OUT was thus introduced in
the Ozark country.

WAR A CIVILIZER.

The tendency of all civilized nations
during the past few decades has been
toward encouraging peace, ,and settle in
ternational disputes by arbitration; but
the tendency has not met with univer-
sal approval. 1t is urged that war is the
great civilizing agent; that it invites
noble deeds; draws a people closer to-
eether; Greats a love of country; en-
courages advancement in science and
art, and prevents people from relax
ing into state of effeminacy. Judg-
ing from the history of nations, it
would seem that there is foundation
for this belief. Greece and Rome were
most prosperous and made the most
rapid strides in advancement while
their people were aggressive and war;
like. The later European nations
made more rapid advancement when
engaged in foreign wars than they
have during times of peace. America
is no exception to the rule, and there
are many today who urge that war
with some foreign power would be
more beneficial than detrimental.
Among those who hold this view is ".

Times in which he is made to say that
the Uruan incident is distinct from the
boundary question. The editor of
Prejonero, Leon Ponte, has been put
in.prison for having reproduce the in
terview here. The govern ment will
refuse to pay England indemnity for
the Uran affairs, claiming that the
sovereignty of the territory is involved
in the incident.
The government has declined any
oxtensien of time for the settlement of
the Anglo-Venezuelan bank conces-
sion.
The militia have been called on for
service by an executive decree. This

and Venezuelan colors. Thousands of
people paraded through the streets.
The clergy, men, women and children

and Henry George, all of whom were
bitter against the stand taken by the
president. They denounce his posi-
tion as un-American and at variance
with the principles Of the government,
in that if carried out it may result in
war, and they might have well added,
in financial loss to the "speculators"
whose occupation is that of gambling
in stocks and negotiating European
loans on American securities.
From the tone of these gentlemen,
one would judge that in their accusing
the president of assuming an un-Amer-
lean attitude that they convicted them
selves of decided lack of patriotism; ;
for rather than hazard resort to arms
they would see the United States sur
render principles her people have long
held, sacred. The spirit shown by these
gentlemen is decidedly I'm American.

nation there are but. few Howards,
