Dainoc-afic Rule.

The fiscal year just closed shows the
evil effects Of Democratic rule. The fig
ures show that the revenues for the year
were $325, 026, $40, and the expenditures
were 1851 ,Sl6, ESQ, leaving net deficit
of $26, 700, $40. The only difference in
the administration Of Buchanan and
Cleveland is that our deficits are larger
under Cleveland. But by reason of the
splendid credit established by the Re-
publican party by which it has met
every pledge and given the country a
currency, whether silver. paper or gold,
that passes at par, Cleveland could bor
row money at less than per cent where
Buchanan under the l6 to and same
tariff theory was offered money for his
loan at from to 80 per cent H. l..

The following is a fair idea Of the
many incidentals that come free to a
President Every Bit OF linen, bedding
towels, and such things is furnishe
He is haved by the White House barber.
His table is spead with the finest, dain-
tiest damask, set with the most exquis-
lite china, and bountifully supplied with
flowers from the White House conserva-
tories. II he sends telegram, it is done
from an instrument in the White House,
for which the government pays. His sta
tionery, postage, etc, cost him nothing.
Should he desire game of billiards,
there Is beautiful billiard table at hand (;
or If he wants TO take a drive, his sta
bles, which the government pays the
rent for and takes care of, are amply
equipped. When he enters his business
office a man Is stationed at the door to
open and close it and private secre-
tary, to whom the government pays a
salary OF $1,000 a year. assists him with
his correspondence. The services of
typewriter are also furnished. He is pro-
teoted from the curious by number of
private watchmen. Shold he want a
cruise, a magnificent steamship from the
navy Is placed at his disposal.
There are many other things that cost
him nothing, such as the culinary ar
rangements, his steward, who does the
marketing, the many fancy deicacies
sent him By enterprising firms. This,
by the way, is sort of nuisance, for it
seems to be the desire OF every manufac-
turer of some new eatable or drinkable to
value that hnd their way there are never
accepted.

THE IMPOSSIBLE.


1t is impossible for the United States
government or any other government or,
for that matter, as many cnrrency shsrps
are convinced, for all the nations COM
bined, by simply going into the coinage
business to hoist the price Of silver from
that expressed In the present market
ratio TO gold, 81 TO to that demanded
by the silverites, ieto !, and keep it there.
II, by going into the coinage business,
the United States government, or any
other government, or all the nations
com bined, should succeed in so far abb
sorbing the ann ual supply of silver as TO
reduce 1t below what it now is In pro-
portion to demand, the price would of
course rise. The ratio to gold would cor
respondingly fail. 1t might fall to the
IS to ! ratio, or to 16 40 to /, as it was at
the beginning OF the eig ghteenth century.
even to IA 40 rs 1t was when America was
discovered or the price might 60 on bolt.
ing so that you couldn't buy but 10
ounces of silver or so for one ounce OF
gold, as was the case early in the Chris
tian era.
But no matter how tho price Of sill
may rise. No matter how we'll this
country might succeed, II its p,ints coined
silver freely and without limitation I'm
bringing the value OF silver from the
present commercial ratio of 81 to / to
the legal ratio OF the past, and now pro-
posed, OF 10 to 4, Congress might leg
islate until doomsday and BRYAN might
talk the hide all of his throat, and 1t
would be impossible to keep the ratio
fixed. Our money might be "cheap' or
1t might be Expensive" money. But in
the effort to straddle on two standards II
would be unsta b 10 money. The country
tried to base its money on two stand
ards from 1892 to 1873. From the former
date to 1884 Congress made several at
tempts to fix ratio that would keep
the two metals travelling along together.
Then the job was given up IN disgust
and the laws OF supply and demand
were allowed to proceed. as they have
way OF doing anyway, for all legislative
fests or Populist oratory.

Men who make study OF the speed
aud work of the ocean liners have come
to the conclusion that the trip OF the st,
Louis from Southampton, that ended at
Sandy Hook las. Friday. was . highly
remarkable run.
The distpnce from southampton to
New York is greater than from liverpool
to New York. but the American line steam
ships usually get home only few hours
behina the Liverpool liners. The dis
tance covered on the last trip of the st.
Louis was 30e5 miles, and it was made
In 6 days, 2 hours and "A minutes, an
average run OF more than 500 miles day
and record for the course. The average
speed was was 20, s67 knots an hour ana,
although this is exceeded by the record
average OF the Lucania, 22.0l knots and
the Campanis 81. ~ knots, the st tudent of
the comparative figures looks little
beyond the runs made for the conclusions
he seeks.
AS the New York Herald points our,
the American liners were never built TO
"beat" the two big Cunarders They
are not so large and they haven't the
horse power, sMoreover, it is said that
the superiority in speed o, the big Gun
arders is secured only by sucn an excess
in coal consumption as well as In size as
to practically amount to waste. 1t is be-
lieved that tho extra knot or two Is
not worth what IL costs to secu re II. In
other words, for efficiency, the two
American built ships, st. Paul and ST.
Louis, are believed to be Var superior to
their big rivals OF the Cunard line.

campaign. Both the great parties have

Democratic platform for the United
States to undertake the free and unlim-
ited coinage OF silver and gold at a
ratio Of 10 to /, indepsr IDENTIFY, instead OF
securing the cooperation of other nations,
amounts to proposition to change the
standard OF the money OF the country

A Plague of Mosquitoes.

There is plague Of mosquitoes at Ar
lington, n. j. Many people have closed
their homes and gone 70 the seaside and
mountain resorts until the frost kills tho
pests. Last week seven families moved
away permanently, and lately four more
have gone.
No one undertakes, unless urgently nec-
essary, TO venture out uftcr dark. For two
weeks the streets at uight have presented
the appearance OF IA plague stricken city.
No one living there recalls IA similar
state Of affairs. Mosquitoes are always
plentiful in summer, but they never before
succeeded in getting into TIE houses as at
present.
Every known remedy has been tried,
and the best arc only of temporary value.
Canopies are OF little use. Unless there is
some cessation in the nuisance many more
families will leave the town in few days.

To THE EDITOR OF The NEWS:
The heat OF the great national cam
paign, which Is beginning 10 be felt
by every resident Of the land, has called
out the use of certain phrases and cpl
thets among the hotheads Of both parties
that are In one sense not only shameful,
indecent and un-American, but 1t Is also
marked with II tendency to indirectly in
jure a certain class OF citizens who are
totally innocent OF either the cause or the
possible result OF this strange campaign.
In the literary and oratorical battle
field on the money question the
"smart' politicians nave chosen the
Jew as the money devil for their agita-
tion. The jew, whom the darkness OF
the middle ages has at one time forced
to become the money exchanger, and
whom the anti-Semites of our age de-
clared as the leading capitalist and
money lender-this Jew, or this Shylock,
as the anti-Semites call him, appears TO
be the proper article for the buffers in
the present campaign.
Notwithstanding that there Ia no
longer any trace OF this Shylock; not
withstanding that this Shylock lives no
we read in the fabulous stories of olden
times; Notwithstanding that the Jews
are now the poorest people in the worlu ;
Notwithstanding that 50 per cent. OF the
Jews in America are very poor and must
work 10 hours a day for honest bread /;
notw ithstan ding all the facts, certain
gold and silver cranks, particularly the
latter, got hold of the Jew TO use him as
a ball in the great political game
1t must be borne in mind that since the
dawn of true civilization when the Jews
were partially released from the bondage
In which they were tied throug hout several
centuries, they ceased TO be a people of
money lenders and gold magnatcs, which
business the Christian nations forced up
on them during the long period of their
continued oppression. The Jewish
millionaires who have some power in the
finances of the world can be counted on
the finger OF one hand. The real gold
magnates are Christians, who outnumbe
in hundreds the Jewish million aires. The
few Jewish money mangates live in Eng
land, Germany and France, while the
capital of all the rich Jews throughout
America will not reach the capital OF a
single Rockefeller, or Astor, or Wander
bilt. The m illions of the richest Jew
in New York does not even amount to as
much as the dover that an American
pays for marquis or a duke.
Most of the Jews In this country are
working men who earn their bread with
the sweat Of their brow, and the more
fortunate class are men who support
themselves through honest professions,
such as medicine, journalism law.
The greater portion Of Jewish business
men are storekeepers, peddlers and agents
who earn their bread honestly, while the
number OF Jewish bankers aud brokers is
too Insignificant TO pay any attention to-
In the face of all these facts the empty
headed politicians are now attempting TO
run campaign at tne expense OF a help
less and most unfortunate people. 1 hope
that the press will try to check this grow
ing evil and thereby accomplish duty
to both God and man.
