HOBART CONGRATULATED.

What the Vice Pr--ident-Elect Says
of the Result.
NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-Garret A. Ho-
bart has received hundreds of congrat-
ulatory kilograms.
''This is purely a victory of the hon
est voters" said Mr.. Hobart. 1t is a
demand for the continuance of a sound
money policy. The Democrats who
contributed to the result are entitled
to sound recognition for their services
to the people. 1t would not be proper
for me to discuss what will be the
policy of the administration. 1t is the
duty of the Government to protect and
encourage in all practicable ways the
development of American industries,
the elevation of home labor and the
enlargement of the prosperity general
Iy of the people. l favor a tariff bill
that will furnish not only an adequate
revenue for the expenses of the Gov
eminent, but one that promotes Am
erican labor

ANNEXATION TO THE FRONT

The Washington dispatch IN an
other column suggests that Ameri-
cans believe the citizens of Hawaii
will not be slow to present their APP
peal for admission into the Union
when President McKinley's> adj
ministration opens. In this our Am
erican friends have made no mis-
take, although the statement that
an annexation delegation Will leave
here on the next steamer was
founded on mere conjecture. The
Republic of Hawaii Is already very
well represented in the United
States by Minister Cooper, and it
goes without saving that he will
make the most of his trip i'll review
inc the annexation situation. As a
nation, Hawaii will act through Its
accredited representatives; but 1t
would certainly be = most cOmpll-
mentary and polite move for the
business men of the country to
send delegation to visit Major
Mckinley previous to his taking
the oath of office. 1t would Ibe an
act of courtesy to the President
elect as we'll as the Republican
party, which has placed the Ha-
waiian question among the prob
lens for immediate consideration.
Enemies of annexation will at
tempt to make light of the I'M
pOrtance of the Hawaiian declara-
ton in the campaign, but it Is
useless for them to maintain that
sound money principles alone were
what caused the reins of national
administration to be placed in the
hands of the Republican leaders.
For our people here, the extra ses-
sion will be none too soon for roliti
cal union to be accomplished. The
annexation campaign should be
opened Immediately.

THANKSGIVING.
Proclamation Issued by the Pre-.
sident of the United States.

Proclamation Issued by the Pre-.
sident of the United States.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 4th.-
President Cleveland today issued the
following Thanksgiving proclamation:
1.-The people of the United States
should never be unmindful of the graf
itude they owe the God of nations for
His watchful care which has shielded
them from dire disaster and pointed
out to them the way of peace and hap
piness. Nor should they ever refuse to
acknowledge with contrite hearts their
proneness to turn away from Gods
teachings and to follow with sinful
pride after their own devices.
ITO the end that these thoughts may
be quickened, it is fitting that one day
especially appointed we should join
together in approaching the throne of
grace and supplication.
Therefore, 1, Grover Cleveland,
President of the United States, do
hereby designate and set apart Thurs
day, the Goth day of the present month
of November, to be kept and observed
as a day of thanksgiving and prayer
throughout the land On that day let
every people fOrego their usual work
and occupation, and assemble in their
accustomed places of worship; let
them, with one accord, render thanks
to the Ruler of the Universe for our
preservation as a nation and our de-
liverance from threatened danger; for
the peace that has dwelt within our
boundaries; for our defense against
disease and pestilence during the year
that has passed; for the plenteous re-
wards that have followed the Iabors of
our husbandmen and for all the other
blessings that have been vouchsafed
to us.
And let us, through the mediation
of Him who has taught us how to pray,
implore the forgiveness of our sins and
a continuance of Heavenly favor.
Let us not forget on this day of
thanksgiving the poor and needy; and
by deeds of charity let our offerings of
praise be more acceptable in the sight
of the Lord.
Witness my hand and the seal of
the United States which l have caused
to be hereunto affixed:
Done at the City of Washington,
this 4th day of November, in the year
of our Lord, one thousand eight hun
dred and ninety-six, and of the indie
pendence of the United States of Amer
lea the one hundred and twenty-first.

NOVEMBER Is,
WEDNESDAY,
A SWEEPING VICTORY.

returns brought from the States by
the Australia are most decidedly Of
the character 10 indorsc the view
that the great American people"
have not gone daft; that notwith-
standing the intense feeling dis
pIaved throughout the hardest con
tested campaign III the history OF
the country, good sober judgment
ruled, and the magnificent MAORI
ties given Mckinley and Hobart
gives clear outline Of the strength
OF that ruling power.
The election is best characterized
a. a Republican sweep. In the
great doubtful territory, the Mid
die West, where both parties con
centrated their supreme efforts, I'M
mense and almost unexpected ma
iorities were rolled up for the party
of sound money and protection. In
Illinois, which State the Republi-
cans were almost ready to cOncede
to their opponents, the Altgeld ma
chine was literally buried. The
Legislature is solidly Republican,
which insures a Republican Sena-
tor. In New York State and New
York City, where the power of the
Tammany braves was held IN
wholesome fear, the sound money
party swept everything and insured
the displacement of David b. Hill
in the United States Senate. Ken
lucky, though carried by very
small margin, was drawn from It's
place with the solid South, and 1t
is probably destined to remain
without that fold for years to come.
The vote of the farmers and the
mechanics, in which the Bryan
forces placed so much confidence,
was given to the party which stood
for the maintenance of national
honor.
One of the most gratifying feat
r1res of the election was the posi-
tiveness of popular expression,
which ought to put to rest the idle
talk of internal strife. With the
feeling running at height quite
equal to war times, the people set
tied down quietly, recorded their
vote, and as quietly turned back to
the old time routine as if nothing
had happened to stir up discord.
The return of confidence has al
ready been made manifest by the
unlocking of money boarded up
against the possibility of an evil
day, and the renewal of industrial
activity all over the country.
The point now in question is
whether the silver craze has been
overcome for all time. Bryan and
his cohorts of course give ont that
they will not withhold from the
fight, but it is. certain that they will

atorY legislation from the Fifty

time enough to think about that

elect of the Nation viii begin the
work of Strengthening out financial
affairs Immediately upon coming
into power, and an extra session of
Congress Is on the boards a. an as
sured fact. About the only dis
agreeable thing Mckinley has on
his hands is the claims of the sound
money Democrats, who hold about
the same position the mugwumps
did in Cleveland's second admins
tration. Mckinley, however, Is at
an advantage in being able to profit
by the mistakes of his predecessor.

WOULD RESTORE PARITY.

Free Coinage Would Give Us BimetalIism
in a Practical Way.
A goldite organ trying to reply to
the assertion that this country is suf-
fering from a money famine says that
there is an abundance of money in the
United States, meaning by that paper.
silver, gold and all othes kinds of cur
rency. In this it displays its igno-
rance. The country is suffering from a
famine of standard money, and il does
SO in common with ali the remainder
of the gold-using world. It makes no
difference whether there is more gold
Or less in a particular country. The
trouble is that there is not enough in
the whole gold-using world taken to-
gether. It is because prices are meas
ured by the whole quantity of gold
in the gold-using world that they have
fallen SO low, and it is because they
would be measured by the whole guam
tity of gold and silver taken together
that they would rise if we had bimet-
allism. Free coinage would give us
bimetallism in practical way because
it would restore the parity between the
two N etais, and it would do SO be-
cause of the great power of this coun-
try to absorb money. The commerce
of the United States, foreign and do
nestle, would create such a demand
for American silver dollars that they
would be accepted upon a parity with
gold everywhere -EXchanpe

on which credits are granted to pur.
chasers, and which are in effect the Sc.
curity for the payment of the indebt-
edness and the basis of credit and con-
fidence. AS we have said. want of con
fdence is loudly proclaimed as the seat
of our sufferings; but loss of conf
dence is caused by the depreciation OF
property, and cannot return while
prices are falling. When we restore
bimetallism. thus checking the disas-
trous fall of prices, then the credit of
producers. now impaired through the
depreciation of their property,
will be restored. and then con-
confidence will return; but it is foolish
to expect return OF confidence in the
face of falling prices and of the con-
slant depreciation of the things that
go to paw debts.-Americau
