IN A NUTSHELL.


On November S the New York Finan-
,cial News contained the following sensi-
bic article:
The people have elected Mr.. Mckinley.
They have decided for the gold standard.
We have had a most earnest campaign.
It is over. The most important thing to
every American is that the will Of the
majority shall be respected and sustained.
That is our supreme law. II we ignore
it or question it, our government must
be a failure. Fortunately, the victory has
been so sweeping for the gold standard
that the administration will have all the
power that goes with great and over
whelming vote. The presidency and both
houses of congress will be in accord.
This after such campaign, is OF the
highest Importance to both parties alike.
1t gives power to those in authority.
Without power there can be no respon-
sihi.ity. If congress were divided and
one house could block legislation. then
the party in charge Of the government
could claim that it had brought no re-
lief because It had no power. That claim
cannot be pleaded at the next election,
for the party in power in name will be
in power In fact, and must be Judged by
its work.
Heretofore no promise made by the
advocates of the gold standard as to its
beneficial working on the business Of
the country has been kept. Times have
grown harder as the years have passed.
But the people have voted to continue II
four years more They have declared
their faith that 1t will work out. Now It
is In a position to be tried under the
fullest advantage any policy can have,
with the executive and Legislative
branches in accord. VIII
All experience SO far has shown that
expanding business needs an expanding
Icirculation. If there is any miraculous
power in gold to reverse this law, let ua
find it out. The people will insist on
performance OF contract. II the gold
advocates can demonstrate their claims
the people will sustain them. II they
cannot, then when the next election
comes round Tuesdays verdict will be
reversed. s.. ..5 t55 Ut

Of the party coming into power. The

1T Is evident that much fraudulent work
has been done in the count Of the ballots
In this state, and it is not unlikely that a
recount will be demanded. It is conf
IDENTIFY expected by many that John Lind
has been honestly elected governor Of this
state, and that the supposed election of
CIough 81 based upon manipulation Of the
ballot box. Anyone who knows Of any
thing that would throw further light on
the matter would confer favor by
communicating at once with E. r. Lynch,

The majority of the bankers of Mime
apolis solemnly assert that the bankers
are the only ones who should have any
thing to say about what should constitute
the laws relating to banking, that the
government should keep out of the f1nan-
cial affairs of the country; and that as
the bankers know what is best for the
country-and for themselves that they
should be permitted to run things unmo-
Tested The bankers forget to add that
the government should allow the bankers
to protect themselves also from all kinds
Of fraud, imposition and other possible
injuries. "

Money sent to Japan.

The Japan Herald gives the
following item:
From the figures published in
the annual report of the japanese
Consul General at Honolulu, it
would seem that a very fair per-
centage of the wealth of the Ha-
waiian Islands finds its way to
this country every year. 1t seems
from the reports in question that
there were 5,436 japanese coolies
taken thither under contract last
year, while 11,072 completed their
contracted terms. 10,202 coolies
were employed in 36 sugar facto-
ries and 1,625 on sugar plants-
tons. The amounts transmitted
to Japan totalled nearly four
hundred thousand dollars, besides
one hundred thousand deposited
in the banks. 29,069 contract
coolies have been landed in IL
years, II ,495 of these remain in
the islands; during the same
period 1874 other Japanese have
arrived, and 23,943 remain in the
islands.

A Correspondent Raises n Novel Point
for Consideration.


EDITOR BULLETIN:-Judgments
have already been entered against
the Hawaiian Tramways Com
pany in three cases for 500 dam
ages and costs in the District
Court. If these judgments are
confirmed by the Supreme Court,
and there seems little doubt that
they will be,every person who has
been overcharged during the last
six months has the right to sue
the company for similar amount.
All that is necessary to do, unless
the writer is badly mistaken, will
be to refuse payment OF the over
charge until the driver enforces
it, and then pay under protest in
the presence of one or more relia-
BILE witnesses. The action will lie
any time in six months after.

Conference Report Confirming the Title
of the Seat of Jones of Vir.
ginia Agreed To.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 2S.-As
soon as the journal was read the House
| went into committee of the whole for the
consideration of the legislative, executive
| and judicial appropriation bill for the
year ending June 30, 1897, and twenty-one
pages of it we're disposed of before ad-
iournment. In the course of the general
debate, which lasted until nearly clock,
Grout (R.l OF Vermont, member from
the Committee on Appropriations, read a
speech in favor of sound and stable cur
| rency. OF the sections of the bill which
passed under consideration only one ex-
cited much debate-that relating to clerks
nual fight took place.
Tawney (R.) of Minnesota moved to
make their employment continuous in
stead OF during the sessions of Congress
only, but this was ruled out on point of
order made by Mccall (R.) OF Tennessee
that it changed existing law and was
therefore inadmissible upon an appro-
priation bill.
The feature of the discussion was
DeArmond's attack on the amendment,
which he characterized as raid on the
treasury, without right or justice, salary
grab as much as the infamous measure
known by that name, and stencil in the
nostrils of honest men.
The chairman of the committee of the
whole sustained the point of order, re-
versing a ruling made in the last Congress
under similar conditions; and Tawney
! taking an appeal from the ruling, it was
| sustained by the com mittee-102 to 43.

At the night session the House, in COM

But They Manage Their Own
Affairs Independent Of
England.
Lord Salisburys Stand in Reference
to an International Bimetallic
Congress.

LONDON, ENG, Feb. 26.-Ih the House
of Commons to-day Right Hon. Joseph
Cham berlain, Secretary of State for the
Colonies, replying to a question of John
w. Laurie, Conservative and Unionist
upon the subject, stated that the Govern
ment had received copies of resolutions
adopted by the Australian colonies, ex-
pressing their loyalty to the crown, and
declaring that they were unswervingly de-
termined to make every sacrifice for the
perpetuation of their connection with the
British empire.
The resolution of the Canadian Cover n
ment. Cham berlain said, had not yet ar
rived, but when it did it would be laid be-
fore the House.
William Johnson asked if any recogni-
tion could be taken of the fact that when
the resolution was passed in the Canadian
Parliament the entire assembly arose to
their feet and sang "God Save the
Queen" This question was received with
cheers.
]. G. MacNeil, Nationalist, turning to
Mr.. Cham mberlain, asked: Isn't it a fact
that these colonies have the management
of their own affairs?"
Mr.. MacNeirs query was greeted with
prolonged cheers from the National
benches, but no answer was given to it by
Mr.. Chamberlain.
George n. Curzon, Under. Secretary fol
Foreign Affairs, stated that the Govern
ment had been approached with view to
the convening of another International BIZ
metallic congress. To. these representa-
tions, Lord Salisbury. Mr.. Curzon said,
had replied that he would oonsult with
his colleagues in the Ministry before Civ
ing a definite answer. The Premier in

however, that ne had no desire 10 onpose

grounds were shown. but upon learning
that the reopening of the Indian mints

JACKSON, MISS, Feb. 28.-The Clarion
Ledger will tomorrow publish the follow
ing letter from Hon. w. G. Whitney OF
New York:
NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 1896
To the Editor of the Clarion Ledger, Jackson,
MaSs-SIR: From recent issues of your paper
sent me by some friend, l learn that w. S..
McAllister has been circulating in your city
among prominent Democrats petition re-
questlng me to become candidate for the
Presidential nomination of the Democratic
party. In the course of the controversy which
naturally arose from such effort on his part,
ne speaks OF himself as one of the principal
managers of the Whitney movement i'll this
State'' (MississippD
II similar positions were taken and similar
words employed with regard to another person
should assume that he was aware of what
was being done. /, therefore, desire to disclaim
any knowledge of any such "movemen1"
(whatever that may mean), and I request any
friend of mine not to join it. 1t is doubtless
intended in q friendly spirit, but has not my
approval or concurrence.
From the same source of Information 1 learn
that some persons have believed me a sup
porter of the view that the United States should
open its mints to the free coinage of silver at
16 to l, independently of the cooperation and
action OF other nations, and in that belief have
oeen lou lItO d IdlSo as regards Jnelr
own principles. Bnder these circumstances |
ought to say that 1 do not believe in that theory
OF finance. but consider it unsound, and if
adopted likely to lead to most evil con-
sequences to our people and their industries
and prosperity.
l am q believer in gold and silver as the
metallic basis of values and OF the worlds cur
rency, and am confident that within time
not far distant there will be concurrence of
the nations upon that subject, by which the
ratios of value of the two metals for coinage
and currency purposes will be fixed and the
stability of such values maintained by an in
ternational agreement. l am aware that this
view is looked upon financial heresy by
some and as visionary by others. But such
persons must be themselves ignorant of the
latest developments of scientific thought upon
this subject and the rapid advance this view is
making where heretofore it has had little sup
port.
Until that occurs believe any action by the
United Sta tes alone would be disastrous to us !;
would bring general ruin TO our present pros
perity, and would hinder the true and final
solution of the problem.
These opinions l do not entertain or express
as candidate for the Presidency (for which
place / have already said would not be a can
didate), but in order that those people who
have views differing from these may not be de-
ce1yed as to mine. Yours, very truly

NAVAL OFFICERS DISAGREE
Constructor Bowles Thinks He
Has Greater Authority Than
Two Superiors.
But the Chances Are He Will Be
Called to Time by Secre.
tary Herbert.

NEW YORK. n. Y, Feb. 28.-A Sun
special from Washington says: A row
has broken out at the New York navy
yard between Commodore Sicard, who
com marlds the station, Commander Charles
S. Sperry, ordnance officer, and Construc-
tor Bowles. in charge of all repair and
construction work now going on there,
| which promises to be exceedingly lively
before the Navy Department straightens
thinge out and decides which is In the
wrong.
Yesterday afternoon there was a con.
ference of over two hours in the office of
the Secretary, when there were present
Commodore Sicard. Commander Sperry
and Chief Naval Constructor Hichborne,
who represents Bowles. The two officers
stationed at New York have been
in the city recently and are deter
mined to have the question settled
whether Bowles is to install the ordnance
on the new monitor Terror according to
his own liking or whether it shall be done
as Commander Sperry directs. Sperry,
being in charge of all ordnance work of
the yard, claims, and his contention will
probably be approved, that no guns or
mounts should be placed on vessel there
without his approval, and Comm cd ore
| Sicard backs Sperry up.
| Bowles, on the other hand. will endeavor
| to show that he is building up the ships
and that he is held responsible for their
| success or failure, and if things are not
conducted as he wishes they will all be
wrong.
| The fight is really one as to the authority
of constructors at navy-yards and that OF
line officers, and generally in such in
stances the line officers come out ahead
! Commodore Sicard as commandant of the
| station is responsible for everything going
on at the yard, and Commander Sperry
holds that he is equally responsible for a
| division of the work under Sicard, which
in this instance is ordnance, while Con-
structor Bowles said that he is responsible
for everything affecting the construction
of the vessel, including ordnance
| Commander Sperry is the officer who
/ had trouble with Captain Nicoll Lodlow,
and who succeeded in holding up his pro-
motion for several months. He is one OF
| the best known officers of the navy, and
an expert on all that pertains to ordnance.
| The hearing will be continued to-day and
the Secretary will render his decision some
| time next week
