THE spectacle presented, says the Pub
lie Ledger, by the banks of the large cities
Just now is one that may be commended to
the Populst and silver men as an object
lesson. These institutions, finding that the
government is in danger of being embar-
raised by the drain of gold from the Urea,
sury, are preparing to supply the deficiency
in order to avoid trouble and a possible
panic. The New York banks are ready to
furnish from $4,000, 900 to 100000, 900,
and more if necessary, while those of Phila-
delphia and Boston are quietly watching
the situation, and will step in and give
their assistance if needed. Call this patrio-
tism, business or pure selshness, as you
will, the fact remains that it is substan-
tial help to the government, made at the
right time and in the proper way, and is a
severe rebuke to the men who are trying to
harm it by depreciating its currency.

DELAWARE is a small State but it can
kick up as big political rumpus, and be
heard as far, as any State in the Union.
At present, the number of political parties
that its three counties boast, can be stated
as follows:
The Republican Party.
The Democratic Party.
The Addicks Party.
The Populist Party.
The National Party.
The Prohibition Party.
The Socialist Labor Party.
The Single Tax Party.
The Equal Suffrage Party.
Before the election rolls round, we may
reasonably expect to hear of other parties
yet to be organized.

who does.
Take any community, and see the devil
ishness that underlies this howl at the
'money power"
Take any town you will, Elkton small
one, or Philadelphia large one.
What does this money power represent?
What is it?
In Elkton it means Singerlys Mills, it
means Deibert's Boat Yard, and every one
and all of the productive industries of this
community, which confer on the town the
little commercial life it enjoys.
In Philadelphia, Wilmington and the
larger manufacturing centres, this "money
power runs the immense industries that
employ their tens of thousands, and put
bread in the mouths of hundred of thous
ands.
How would the proposition to remove
Mr.. Singerly's mills from Elkton be re-
ceived by the men who receive from it

town with whom those earnings are spent?
1t would be denounced and regretted as
one step towards the commercial death of
the town.
Certainly it would, because this 'money
power which these mills represent, con-
stitutes large part of Elkton's wealth, its
circulating capital, and whatever Injuries
that ''money power" in that degree dimin-
ishes Elkton wealth, and therefore Injuries
Elkton.
Consult any of the men who manage or
own these industries, and who represent
this ''money power" and they will tell you
that free silver will injure them, and if it
Injuries them it will in turn bring hardship
and distress to those who depend on them.
And yet it is directly against this source
of commercial life in community, the
''money power" that the heaviest blows of
the Populists are directed!
1t would he well for the wage earners of
this, and every other community, to think
about this crusade which the free silver
advocates are making against the ''money
power" as they term it.
