The Endless Chain.

The greenback endless chain is doing its
work. 1t answers the purpose of the bull
lion brokers admirably. With it they are
which to pay for bonds. For awhile they
did not even take the trouble to carry the
gold out of the subtreasury. They drew
it out of one window and turned it into
an adjoining window. 1t did not suit the
assistant treasurer, however, to have the
subtreasury turned into brokers' office.
and so the bullion dealers were compelled
to have the gold carried to their offices,
where it was transferred to the purchas-
ers, and then carted back to the subtreas-
ury.
1t was expected, of course, that gold
would be drawn from the treasury to pay
for the bonds but it is well to remember
that, no such thing occurred when the
Belmont Morgan syndicate purchased
$6O,O0O,OCO of bonds last February. If the
papers that are still condemning that deal
would call attention to that fact when
ceived popular loan bonds they
would ed to more credit for fair
ness ncy.
1t is -lown yet what amount of
gold the government will get out of the
present bond deal. There is probable
ity that it won't get any more than it did
out of the acknowledgment issue. al
though the present issue is a great deal
larger than that issue was and the price
received is higher. 1t may even turn out
that the results to the gov
eminent of the present bond issue
will not be so beneficial as was the re-
suits of the Belmont-Morgan issue. If
they should not be, will the papers that
have been scoring the administration for
selling bonds at private sale have the
fairness to say that the administration
did not, after all, make such a tremen-
dous blunder in selling bonds at private
sale? We hardly think they will. They
are not the kind of papers that admit
their errors.

His Deserts.

The lah-de-dah chappie at the lunch

deal of trouble, says the Chicago Tribune.

sandwich had a streak of fat in 1t and he
couldn't eat fat, the cream was skim-milk.

Capt Gen. Weyler inaugurates his cam
paign in Cuba with a proclamation which
conveys to the people of the island in
sugar-coated form the information that
he is prepared to institute a reign of ter
ror if it suits his purpose to do so. The
captain general should not overlook the
fact, before he carries out his implied
threat, that while a reign of terror may
with impunity be carried on in Armenia
by the sultan, no such thing would like
ly be permitted on the islands that lie
within the shadow of the stars and stripes
A revival of the fortunes of the inquisi-
ton in Cuba would be more than apt to
stir up in this country such a storm of
indignation that public opinion would
force congress to recognize the insurgents
as beligerents, and possibly to go a step
or two further along a line of action that
Spain would find decidedly embarrassing,
not to say positively disagreeable. Gen.
Weyler would do well to think twice be-
fore he again essays to play in Cuba the
role which gained him the sobriquet OF
1.-The Butcher"

Gen. Weyler's proclamation to the peo-
pie of Cuba contains a pointed warning
TO newspaper correspondents. Not only
will he make use Of all of the rigor of the
law" against those who render active aid
TO the insurgents, but also against those
"who speak well of them or discredit
the prestige of Spain. of its army or vol
unteers." Within week or ten days two
American newspaper correspondents have
been ordered out of the island for sending
anti-Spanish information to their papers.
Under Welyer, it appears, it will not do to
speak the truth when it favors the insur-
gents. for all the rigor of the law win
be applied to those who speak well OF
them" Free speech is not Spanish in
stitution.

For More Sage Brush States.
From the New York Post Qnd.).

1t appears that the advocates of the adj
mission of Arizona and New Mexico as
states have about half of the House COM
mittee on territories on their side, and are
hopeful of pushing the scheme through
congress at this session. Public senti-
ment ought to pronounce so emphatically
against this proposition that congress will
drop it. Neither of the two territories is
hitting them will be to strengthen the
champions of every financial folly by four
more votes in the Senate. Sound-money
representatives and senators ought to be
notified that their constituents will not
pardon them if they help to consummate
such an outrage

Senator Thurston of Nebraska has made
a bid for the negro vote which beats the
forty acres and mule promise of repubH-
can Office seekers during the reconstruction
period. He has introduced bill to pen
sion every negro who was born in slav-
cry, the amounts to range from "a month
for one who is less than 50 years old, to
SIS 2, month to one who is 20 years old.
Those over 70 years old are to receive a
bonus of $500 in cash. If this man Thurs
ton doesn't look sharp he may find him
self overwhelmed by the consequences Of
his proposition. It would not be in the
least surprising to hear of an army OF
brothers in black marching upon him and
asking him personally for their money.
They are people who frequently take
suggestions as established facts, and 1T is
sometimes mighty hard to convince them
otherwise.

Senator Vest gleefully announced the
other day that while the Secretary of
Agriculture had been making a kick about
members of congress abusing their seed
privileges, he had discovered that the sec
rotary had himself distributed $50 900 more
packages of seed in his own state NE
braska) than the state was entitled to.
Secretary Morton did this, Senator Vest
said, for the purpose of making himself
popular at home. The fact is that under
the seed law, one-third of the distribution
was to be under direction of the secre-
tary. At the time that the South Caro-
lima sea islands were devastated by cy-
clone, the secretary sent his proportion of
seed to the people of the islands. And
when the great drought and consequent
famine struck Kansas and Nebraska, the
secretary sent far more than the normal
quota of seed to those states. The people
of this state will remember the time, be-
cause the restitution in the northwest
was so great that a trainload of food
was sent by Georgians for the relief of
their distressed fellow countrymen in the
northwest. Senator Vest win not make
political capital against the administra-
ton by directing attention to Secretary
Mortons having given aid to the strick-
en- northwest during the famine

The Don Cameron presidential boom is
threatened with a frost. 1t has been an
open secret for a long time that Senator
Cameron has a presidential bee in his
bonnet, and some of his friends have
hoped TO get nomination for him from
the republicans or from a free silverite
party. But Wharton Barker now looms
up as an obstacle in Camerons way.
Barker is the man who secured the sigma
lures of sixteen republican senators to
a pledge to secure free silver before pass
ing republican tariff legislation. The opin-
ion now obtains in Philadelphia and Wash
ington that this pledge was intended as a
nucleus for a Barker boom.

Can They Co Togetherr

The question is being asked, can the
silverites get together and form a new
party? We do not think they can. It is
possible. of course. for them to become
so crazy on the silver question as to be
willing to sacrifice everything else and
stand together upon a platform having
but one plank, namely, the free, unlimited
and independent coinage OF silver at the
ratio of 16 to /. They are not yet crazy
enough. however, to give up everything
except silver and attempt to get control
of the government on the silver issue
alone.
Senator Dubois says that fifteen SEN
ators have agreed to do what they can to
prevent any legislation until they get
what they want in the matter of silver,
but an agreement of that sort
isn't awe inspiring. The fifteen don't
amount to a great deal. They haven't in
huence enough to command following
that would insure the success of their
scheme.
AS for all the silverites getting together
and forming a silver party. there isn't the
remotest probability of that. 1t is not i'm
probable that a new party may be formed
having silver as its basis, but silverites
in the democratic. republican and popu-
list parties are not going to give up their
respective parties in any considerable
numbers to go into a new organization.
In some quarters there is talk of the ex-
IRENE protectionists. the jingoes and the
silverites forming a party but the talk
amounts to nothing. 1t is pretty certain
that the democratic and republican par
ties will declare for sound money. Those
of the silverites in these two parties who
cannot stand sound money doctrine will
be welcomed by the populist party. Few
will go there however, because they can
not get their own consent to support the
vagaries which have no connection with
silver that the populist platform contains.
There are going to be many threats by
the silverites in the democratic and re-
publican parties as TO what they will do
if they don't get what they want, but the
threats will not materialize into anything
that would alarm either of these parties.

1t is estimated that the cost to Spain of
the war in Cuba has been $4,000, 900 since
the first troops under Campos were sent
to the island. The insurgents do not APP
pear to be even half conquered yet hence
it is impossible to estimate with any de-
gree of accuracy how much more will
have to be spent by Spain before peace is
established. The revenues from Cuba have
been the chief sustenance of the govern
ment of Spain for many years, and on
the strength of the probability of the
continuance of those revenues Spain has
been able to raise money to carry on the
war. Should Spain lose Cuba as result
of the instruction Spanish finances would
be apt to experience a disastrous col
lapse.

silver Advocates Classified.
From Louisville courier-Journal Den


The rank and file of free silverites are
honest in their opinions, but their opinions
are founded upon little or no knowledge of
the question The silver men in congress
may be divided into three classes: First,
those who, like the rank and file, are
who are directly interested in the silver
industry, or are agents for those who are;
third. the politician, who, whether they
believe in free silver or not, speak and
vote for free silver because they think
free silver popular in their districts and
its advocacy a vote-winning policy. There
is no doubt that this class is much larger
than either of the other two. Some who
belong to it know nothing about the ques-
ton, and do not care to know, their
knowledge on any subject being full when
they know the popular side of IL in their
districts. But others are not so ignorant
They understand the fallactes and evils
bring. disaster upon their constituents
but they do not choose to risk their con-
Sressional salaries by taking the right
side OF the issue.
