NAVAL STORES.

erfrits observation-disclosures of turpen-
zine farms in Georgia never heard OF splr-
its being sold at 22l2c until few days ago.
During the panic of 1898, when stocks were
increasing ON the producers and factors
hands. and money was a scarce article, a
certain exporting firm went into the mar
ket with ready cash and took the ofter-
ipes at DC, when there was really no sale
for the product at the time. Although &c
was the lowest price paid in years II was
gladly accepted at the time, even though
ii was below the cost of production.
At the time, the producers and factors
agreed 10 curtail the production. They
promised each other not to operate as large
crop as before: they formed associations
and made resolutions, but as winter came
on and they had already shipped in their
product 10 market, the holders OF spirits
saw fit TO advance the price. The opera
Tor forgot all about the depressed condt-
ton of the past summer; all about his res
Olutions TO curtail his operations, and went
TO work cutting all the new boxes he could
afford 10, and. perhaps, more. The fol-
lowing year. the same conditions were re-
peated. A combination that did not effect
ually combine, was organized. The re-
cepts increased; the stocks ran up to
about $1,000 barrels in rlrst hands,-and
then something dropped. 1t was the price
of spirits. 1t was not drug on the mar
ket; when the price pleased the specula-
tors. 1t moved off lively.
The resolutions have been since repeated
with numerous whereases, but the produce
ton has rapidly increased each season,
until At present the only excuse for the low
price is the fact that there has been an
over production.
Factors are discouraged, but have no
way TO remedy the evil. They are all anx-
ious TO sell, and when exporters put the
price down they don't have to do a thing
but sell out
The business of the past week was large
IN point Of the number of casks disposed
of. but the price was lower. The buyers
could not pay 231sc at the opening of the
week, but finally bought at 23c; then the
price dropped to 221ac, and on Thursday
afternoon there were sales of about l 900
casks, at 22Ac, which were reported at the
opening Of the market this morning. The
highest bid put out by the buyers to-day
was &c. and they did not appear anx-
lous to buy even at that low figure.
Hosln--There was a decline on the prices
OF medium and common grades during the
past week. The business continued steady
at the decline, and the sales aggregated
the amount of the receipts.

OF cotton: The cotton market to-day
wore a hesitating aspect. A sharp de-

as Liverpool gradually recovered her loss,
snort covering hero sent the price OF
January up to Gaze. The crop accounts.
however, were too good and the confident
predictions Of the early shipment Of round

allow the advance to be maintained.
Point by point the market gave way, and

WOULD HELP THE PEOPLE,.
Says the Benefit to Mine Owners Woul,

Says the Benefit to Mine Owners Would
Be Comparatively Small.
1t it is asserted by our opponents that
the free coinage Of silver is intended only
for the benefit Of mine owners, it must be
remembered that free cottage cannot re-
store to the mine owners any more than
demonstration took away, and it must
also be remembered that the loss which
the demonstration of silver has brought
to the mine owners is insignificant COM
pared to the loss which this policy has
brought to the rest of the people, The
restoration of silver will bring to the peo-
pie generally many times as much adyan-
tage as the mine owners can obtain from
it. While it is not the purpose Of free
coinage to especially aid any particular
class, yet those who believe that the res
toration of silver is needed by the whole
people should not be deferred because an
incidental benefit will come to the mine
owner,
There are some who, while admitting
the benefits of bimetallism, object to coin
age at the present ratio. If any are de-
ccived by this objection, thQy ought to re-
member that there are no bimetallists
who are earnestly endeavoring to secure it
at any other ratio than is to /, We are
opposed to any change in tho ratio for two
reasons: First, because a change would
produce great injustice, and, second be-
cause change in the ratio is not peces-
sary. A change would produce injustice
because if effected in the manner usually
suggested, it would result in an enormous
contraction in the volume of standard
money.

To Fight the New Capitol.

Notice to the taxpayers of the Coun-
ty of Kandiyohi, State of Minnesota:
We, the undersigned, at mass
meeting held May 23rd, 1896, at the
school house No. 81 were duly elected
a board of trustees, to take subscrip-
lions for a fund and also employ an
attorney and start law suit in the
names OF some taxpayers in the coun-
ty, to stop the building of second
State Capitol at St. Paul upon the
grounds that St. Paul is only the tenn
porary seat of government to the state.
and that the legal seat of the state
government is not the land granted by
congress for a seat of government to
the state. We have already employed
tor this work an attorney and in Or
der to pay him we must have money.
We therefore ask each and every tax
payer who should see this notice to be
kind enough to contribute his mite
and thus help the good work along.
Contributions may be sent to the edi-
tor of the paper in which this notice
appears SO that Acknowledgement of
such receipts can be made in the paper.
Dated this 24th day of July A. D. 1896.

the liability. That is to say, while. the
bank owes a large amount Of money to it's
depositOrs it not only has enough on hand
in money and notes to pay its depositors,
but in addition thereto has enough to
cover it's capital and surplus. When the
dollar is rising in value slowly, a bank
may, by making short time loans and tax
ing good security, avoid loss; but when
prices are falling rapidly, the bank is apt
to lose more because of bad debts than it
can gain by the increase in the purchasing
power of it's capital and surplus
It must be admitted, however, that some
bankers combine the business of a bond
broker with the ordinary banking bust
ness, and these may make enough in the
negotiation Of loans to offset the losses
arising in legitimate banking business.
It is not strange that those who have
made profit by furnishing gold to the
government in the hour of it's extremity,
favor financial policy which will keep
the government dependent upon them. I
believe, however, that speak the senti-
ment of the vast majority of the people Of
of the United States when I say that a
wise financial policy administered in be-
half of all the people would make our
government independent Of any combina-
ton of financiers, foreign or domestic.
