SPEAKER REED voices the senti-
ment of all good citizens who believe
i'm applying sound business principles
TO government affairs when he says:
"There is one thing do want to call
your attention to. With the revenues
of this nation running from $50, 900, 900
to $50,000,000 below it's expenses, we
can never expect to hold up our heads
among solvent nations. A bill was in
trodueed in the last congress which
did not effect the tariff question at all,
but was only to raise revenue. / ap-
peal to you as business men to investi-
gate this matter and create a sentiment
that Will result in the passage of such
q bill as will enable us to establish our
selves as solvent Nation"

ONE of the principal features of the
annual report of Secretary Morton, of
the department of agriculture, is a
REPUTATION of the assertions of what he
calls calamity howlers." He con-
tends that agricultural interests are
not declining; that p per cent of the
farms in the country are without any
incumbrance, while the incumbrance
Oh the remaining % per cent was i'll
Cured in the purchase and improve
ment of the land. The report says that
the greatest ratio of mortgages is found
jim the North Atlantic states. and that
New Jersey shows especially heavy
incumbrances.

UNDER the more or less beneficent
policy inaugurated and carried into eff
feet by the Democratic party, our be-
loved Uncle Samuel has learned what
it is to be unable to pay his bills with
out borrowing money and mortgaging
his property. The experience has cost
him dearly and among other things it
is to be hoped that it has taught him
better than to again allow himself to
be made the victim of misplaced conf
dence in any party which advocates a
reduction of tariff duties with a view
to ultimate free trade.

The Official Paper Of San Juan County
THURSDAY. DECEMBER 10th, 1895.

NOTHING can be gained for the Re
publican cause by attempts to belittle
the vote cast for Mr.. Bryan. 1t is true
that his defeat was overwhelming in
view of the fact that Mr.. Mckinley
secured majority Of nearly one hum
dred in the electoral college and that
his majority of the popular vote was
by far the largest ever given to presi-
dental candidate. The popular vote
for Mr.. Mckinley seems to have been
7,O5O,516. The popular vote for MIR.
BIyln was 6,221 $50. The popular vote
for Palmer was 1850. Mckinley,
therefore, received more votes than
Bryan by 826,964. These figures are
not official but they may be regarded as
approximately correct. When nearly
six and quarter millions of Ameri-
can citizens line up to the polls in sur.
port of such a cause as Mr.. Bryan
represented, and that, too, in the face
of the fact that it was opposed by the
most powerful agencies ever brought
to bear in presidential campaign, it
is an unwarranted reflection upon
American intelligence to assume that
either the cause or the candidate have
been hopelessly buried politically, for
all time. 1t would be far more dis
Greet to make thorough study of the
condition which occasioned such all
uprising with view to devising and
carrying into effect a wiser policy than
that advocated by the Bryanites for
restoring prosperity to the nation and
the people Mr.. Cleveland was elected
in 1892 by nearly 7O0,O 900 votes less than
were given to Mr.. Bryan in 1896.

ada, Cuba and Hawaii he would have
q nation twice the size of Europe. 1t is
not very great temptation. We may

anything like such vast area of equal
desirability, measured by climatic con-
ditions, agricultural and mineral value

have effected a Union on the vexed
question of finance and tho rank and

til victory is won and until the great
enemy of American liberty is crushed.
This is the opportunity for labor to
break the golden chains with which
she has 30 long been bound to the
chariot wheels Of the tyrant money
monopoly. Will there be left any
poor man farmer or laborer who will

other nations will have to send armies
to settle those inhuman Turks, and
when the work is accomplished, will
all those nations form one rush to
England? No sir! they will return
to their several nations to again gov
ern themselves as they formerly have
