expedient and proper for the government
of the United States of America, at this
time, to open it's mints to the free and
unlimited coinage Of gold and silver at
the ratio of 16 to l, and in addition to
issue an adequate volume Of full legal

The determination of the Republican
party to do nothing and let the people
suffer the psngS of poverty right along
in the hope that snch a course of
procedure will insure them the offices
next year may prove boomerang. The
jumping from party to party by small
number Of persons, the stay-at-home in
both the old parties and the total deser-
tion Of many thinking men from both Of
them can leave but one opinion in the
minds of the thoughtful. 1t is that the
average American citizen is becoming SO
thoroughly disgusted with the way
political parties Of to-day are being
handled and the people in general
robbed by systemtic doses of purgative
law that they will no longer be deceived

The specIal FInaneIaI Message.

WASHINGTON, December 20.-Follow-
ing is special message sent to Congress
by President Cleveland to day:
To Congress- In my last annual mes
sage the evils Of our present financial
system were plainly pointed out and the
causes and means of the depletion Of
government gold were explained. 1t
was therein stated that after all the
efforts that had been made by the ex-
ecutive branch OF the government to
protect our gold reserve, by the issuance
Of bonds, amounting to more than s162,-
100000, such reserve then amounted to
but little more than s79,0OO,OOO, that
about s16,OOO,OOO had been withdrawn

Rev. J. D. Botkin has been in this
county for some time visiting friends
and relatives. He has also made few
talks to the boys upon "Signs Of the
Times.p Last Sunday at the opera
house he delivered the best sermon
heard in Lawrence for years. 1t was an
old fashioned Methodist sermon upon
the true church, and stirred up the
so-called policy Christians. If such
sermons were preached from all the
pulpits there would be no reason why so
many common people should not affiliate
with She church. AS it stands today,
the gilded sepulchers called churches
are detriment to the world inssmuch
as many church inclined people are kept
away by the hypocrisy, cant and
aristocrstic church methods. II this be

EMERGENCY BILLS.
Bonds and the Tariff the Only Measures Of
Relief So Republicans Say.

Relief, So Republicans Say.
WASHINGTON, DC, December 23.-The
House Republicans will introduce on the
day after Christmas and pass within the
week two bills in response to President
Cleveland's message Of appeal for help
for the treasury. One of these two will
be tariff bill to increase the revenue,
the other financial plan to maintain
the gold reserve and prevent alleged
existing trouble with greenbacks.
This party plan has been perfected by
two meetings of the Republicans of the
Ways and Means committee; the fist
held Saturday night, at which was pres
ent Speaker Reed and other leaders; the
second this afternoon. Although strong
efforts were made to preserve secrecy
concerning the details Of the plan, its fea-
lures have been obtained by the Asso-
eiated Press from unquestionable au-
thOrity.
The tariff bill will be entitled "a bill to
increase the revenues and 10 preveLt de-
ficits in the treasury" and will go into
effect when signed by the President, if
he signs it, and will remain in effect un-
Ill August l, 1898, when by it's provis-
ions, it's operation will cease. Its items
follow:
A duty on wool of 60 per cent. of the
Mckinley law rates. A compensatory
duty on woolen goods of 60 per cent. Of
the Mckinley act rates. A duty of 60
per cent. of the rate of 1890 on lumber,
which will be from 10 to Is per cent. ad
o0lorem. An increase of 25 per cent
from the Wilson German act rates on
cereal breadstuffs, dairy products, live
stock, including poultry. A horizontal
increase of 10 per cent. from the Wilson
German rates on all other schedules,
with the provisions that in no case shall
the duty exceed the Mckinley rates ex-
cept where the Wilson-Gorman rates
exceed those of the Mckinley law.
THE BOND BILL.
The second bill will provide for two
issues of bonds.
The first will be an unlimited amount
of per cent. five-year coin bonds to pro-
tect the gold reserve with the provision
that the currency redeemed by the pro-
ceeds shall not be paid out for current
deficits in The revenue unless the ex-
penses OF the government are in excess
of the revenues (which, it is expected,
they will not be if the first bill is in
operation). In addition, the second bill
viii provide for one-yesr 2 per cent.
treasury certificates Of indebtedness not
to exceed 80 million dollars in amount,
and to be disposed Of at the discretion
Of the Secretary Of the Treasury to meet
current deficits in the revenue.
