ductive work. But according to Eco
nomist Bateman, it was due to the green
back. According to him it was the
greenback that lit the fires in our fur
naces, whitened the sea with the sails of
our coni- cree, and spread our commerce
all over tho world. Now if there be SO
easy a way TO get rich as to set up q
VIC can whiten all the seas with our ships
by simply issuing an unlimited supply of
irredeemable currency, let US by all
means set up the printing press and keep
It going If Mr.. Bateman is right, the
way to prosperity is easy. But we fear
Mr.. Bataman is wrong. The greenbaok
was an evidence that the country was
expending more than it prodnced. 1t
was really signal of distress. 1t was
mortgage on the future. 1t was con-
fession of inability to pay then and a
promise to pay in the future. While
we paid in these promises we seemed
prosperous, simply because we had not
raid at all. Mr.. Bateman's idea is that
this appar emit prosperity might lie indefi-
nitely extended by indefinitely extending
the promises to pay. The trouble with
that programme is that the creditors
would violently protest against it. Mr..
Bateman confounds q promise to pay
money with money itself. II is assum-
ing that because the people have been
willing to accept certain number OF the
governments promises to pay they will
accept an indefinite pun berlin short,
that the government heed never pay in
anything but promises.

Mr.. Jordan and the Boulevard.
To the Editor Of the Press:

To the Editor OF the Press:
My communication of Che 3D. on the
Back Cove Boulevard seems to have
given Mr. Engineer Jordan bad nervous
attack. He discovers that I am no en-
gineer which l never claimed but as /
did not discuss the two plans from an
engineers point Of view but from IL at of
practical common sense of which the
gentleman does not enjoy monopoly,
cannot see what his eminent engineeri ng
experience has to do with the question.
The plain question is how TO cure the
smells from Back Cove. All admit that
covering the flats at all times of tide will
do it.
What is tho cheapest wayP Practical
engineers and practical dredging men say
that if You dig out the cove so that the
fats will be covered with three feet of
water you will accomplish the result.
What shall be done with the mudp
Damp it on to the shores of the Cove and
you have ut small cost the beginning of
boulevard requiring only two feet of
gravel on top and rip.rap on the water
side or gravel slope to make good road
bed.
After this the landscape gardiner
should give us the benefit of his expert.

The plan submit involved no bikes
which my engineering advisors say will

practical point OF view l can see no
necessity for damming Back Cove nor has
any engineer given any scientific reasons
for it,

ID APoRTLAND MAN AT ST. LOUIS.
Robert Rexdale Writes of the Grear Hur
ricane.

Mr. Robert Rexdale, formerly Of this
city, but now State Deputy Grand Mas
ter for Illinois of the Ancient Order Of
United Workmen, was in ST. Louis lust
before the hurricane and writes from
Whitehall, ILL.,, to his brother of this
city. in regard to it as follows:
BY this time this morning I suppose
you have read the cyclone news. This
has been tough week, with wind storms
according to reports, from Michigan,
Iowa and now Illinois and Missouri.
The latest news hear is about the dam
age yesterday at East st. Louis, I'LL,
and st. Louis, Mo. Reports of the killed
ara wild and uncertain here where am.
Eand can as yet get no correct informa
tion. The wires are not working yet be-
tween here and East st. Louis, and no
trains can yet get up from there. Dam
age to the bridge over the Mississippi
they all start from the Union Station in
st. Louis.
l fear for many of my friends in East
st. Louis. If reports Of the storm are
true. am within about IS miles from
there now, and will be on the scene in
the morning. Had not been delayed
over at Whitehall yesterday, I should
have been at ST. Louis yesterday morning,
but perhaps it is just as well I didn't get
further south.
There are no St. Louis papers here yet
today, and ] don't know If reports are
true or not. We had no storm in White
hall yesterday, only heavy rain. This
is one of the most beautiful little cities
in Illinois, with elegant houses, wide,
tree-shaded streets, and q fine class of
citizens. There never has been cyclone
through this part of the State, in fact
this year the storms seem to take an en-.
tirely new c0urse-even Michigan in the
last getting a terrible blow. I hope the
cyclone visitor won't go SO far east as
Maine"
In later letter Mr.. Rexdale says:
81 have sent you St. Louis papers con-
tanning best accounts of the CYCLONE.
The story is not at all overdrawn, for
the scenes are Dever-to-be forgotten
ones. have been familiar with them
since Friday. 1t was sad sight at the

The Mckinley ties appear to be still
clinging to the idea Of nominating Mr..
Reed for Vioo President if Mckinley is
selected for President. They are filing
columns to show that the Vice Presi-
dency is one of the most important offices
ofsthe government and that trem endous
honor would be conferred upon MIR. Reed
by unanimously tending it to him. Per-
haps one reason for their anxiety to get
Mr.. Reed to accept the place is that it
will relieve them from great EN- barrass-
ment. They have promised the Vice
Presidency to almost every State in the
Union, and when the long procession OF
statesmen appears to claim the prize
thers is likely to tie some hard words
unless some good and sufficient excuse
can he given for throwing them all over
board together. Mr.. Reeds promise to
accept would furnish such an excuse, and
that Is che reason why they are SO
anxious to secure it. But by this time
they ought &c be convinced that it can
not be had, for Mr.. Reed has said so very
emphatically, and us thoy must know, he
Is not given to Wabbling.

The Populists have carried one of the
Oregon Congressional districts and come
very near carrying the other one. AS all
the parties in Oregon are for free silver
this victory does not signify much on
that question, though it perhaps may
be taken as an Indication that when
people get to going for free silver they
ale inclined to train with the party that
is most enthusiastic and solid for it and
that is the Populist party.

Why it is that the Maine Populists are
disposed to be content with money
enough to give everybody $50 it is diff
cult to see. $50 isn't largo sum. 1t
wouldn't keep the average Populist going
month. As money in the Populist view
doesn't cost anything, there is no reason
why the government should not give every
body CT an even $500 to start with coupled
with promise of $500 more when the first
$500 was gone. Why stop at SO miserable
a pittancA as $50?

PoPU1IsT BATEMAN,s THEORIES.

The Popuiisis of Maine are neither a
humorous nor impressive body, but there
are enough OF them to hold State con-
vention, and put q ticket in the field,
and these things they did yesterday
The principal orator amongst them is
the Hon. l.. G. Bateman. He apparent
ly sets the pace for the party. He is the
oracle The speech which he delivered
to the convention yesterday is published
elsewhere. 1t is gerry in Spots, and there
is ia it a sugg estion That we may be on
the eve of a revolution as bloody as was
the French revolt. Flour is too CHEAP.

not sell it. The most curious thing in
Mr. Bateman's speech is his explanation
of the country's apparent prosperity
during and Immediately subsequent to
the war All recognized economists lave
attributed the apparent prosperity of that
period to the great Instruction of proper
ty by war, and the consequent tremend-

If it required an annual outlay OF
$4,000 to insure a family against any
serious consequences from an attack
of bowel complaint during the year
there are many who would feel it
their duty to pay it; that they could
not afford to risk their lives, and
those of their family for such an
amount. Any one can get this insur-
ance for rs cents, that being the price
of d bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. In
almost every neighborhood some
one has died from an attack of bowel
complaint before medicine could be
procured or a physician summoned.
One or two doses of this remedy will
cure any ordinary case. 1t never
fails. Can you afford to take the risk
for so small an amount? For sale by
