Now for Business.

A dispatch in the Morning News yester-
day from the Sloss Iron and Steel Com
pany of Blrmns ham, Ala. contained the
following: Customers and producers of
iron already feel the good effects of the
election results. Consumers are anxious
to buy at former prices. Producers quote
50 cents advance, ETC."
We have no doubt that from this time
forward there viii be a steady and
healthy Improvement in business. We do
not expect a boom. and hope there will
be none. Ii is far better that business
conditions should continue to be normal,
because then the Improvement would be
healthy and permanent.
The election of Mr. Mckinley has re-
stored confidence in financial affairs.
There are millions of idle capital locked
up which will be put into business enter
prises Of various kinds just as fast as op-
portunities for doing so present them
selves. The opportunities will not, of
course, come all at once. They may be
slow in coming, because there must be
time to look around and see in what way
money can be invested to advantage
The first great step has been taken,
however, towards an improved state of
affairs, and that is the restora ton of con.
hdence in the monetary situation. Those
who have money to lend or invest now
feel that they are not threatened with a
deprecated currency, and that they will
get back money of a value equal to that
which they invest.
For years the silver agitation has kept
the whole country uneasy. Capitalists
have invested their money with the great
est caution, because of the fear that free
silver coinage might be adopted, and the
currency deprecated to a silver basis.
They now know that the silver question
has been practically settled, and that it
is not probable that it will ever again be
a great political issue. Therefore they
will put out their money either in loans
or new enterprises, with entire confidence
that the money of the country will be
kept as good as the best there is in the
world.
We shall not be surprised if by the be-
ginning of the new year the business sit
uation is such that very few will have
any reason to complain of it.

The story Bryan Told Cochran.

Bryan and Bourke Cochran met out in
West Virginia, says the Washington Star
Each expressed regret that they were not
lighting together instead of against each
other. Then Bryan went out to make a
short address to a rather large crowd at
a small town. Upon his return Bourke
asked "Well, what do you think, your
self, of the outlook"
II draw big crowds everywhere 1 CO.
responded Bryan. '"rhey seem enthusiast
tic and 1 think I am winning votes, but
you can't tell; you can't tell he added
slowly.
Then, Frightening up, he said: TITS
a good deal like the young man who went
out as a missionary to some of the canni-
bal islands. After he had been there some
time he returned to his friends in this
country, and one venerable man, inter-
ested in him, asked him how he was get
ting along. Very well; very well, indeed,
he responded. L draw good crowds to
hear me, and they pay close attention to
what I say. 1 feel sure that I am max
ing converts every day, but he added,
with great seriousness, i never stand up
before a crowd of those fellows and talk
to them that there is not a queer feeling
running up my back, which makes me
think I'm going to get eaten up by 'em
before l get through. -

We notice that some of the silver papers
continue to reiterate the statement that
the real issue is whether the American
people have the right to change their mon
etary standard without consulting any
other country. From our point of view
there never was uttered by any one OF
average intelligence a more nonsensical
statement. Who is there who has ever said
that the American people have no such
right? If nobody has contended that they
have no such right, there certainly can be
no issue about it.
AS matter of fact, the American people
can do just what they please in respect to
their monetary standard. They have the
right to make iron the standard if they
want to without consulting foreign coun-
tries. The issue in the recent campaign was
not whether they have the right to change
their monetary standard, but whether it
would be advisable and right to do So.
They have just said that it wouldn't be adj
visable or right, and that ought to settle
the matter.
The silverites who have continually as
serted that the issue was whether the
American people have right to change
their monetary standard, never thought it
necessary to name the people who con-
tended they hadn't a right to change it.
They simply assumed that somebody held
that view and they talked themselves
hoarse in their efforts to refute something
that nobody ever asserted. They talked
about the British gold standard and Lom-
bard street, just as If England denied our
right to change our monetary standard if
we wanted to, but they took good care not
to broadly state that England denied our
right to change it.
AS a matter of fact England never pre-
| tended to say what we should do in res
pect to our monetary standard. 1t is doubt
full If she care what we do about it. All
she is interested pa IS in having her peo-
pie paid in a. good money as they have
loaned US, and common honesty requires
that we shall pay them in money of that
| kind
The campaign is over. and there is no
reason why unsupported statements that
| were supposed to be effective for cam
| paign purposes, should be solemnly reit-
Grated as if they contained so much truth
that they ought not to be thrown aside
along with other rubbish.

price of wheat, he not only made a snug

The Meaning of the victory.

The election of a republican President
and a republican congress does not mean
that the people approve republican doc
trines and have unbounded confidence in
the integrity and wisdom of the republic
can party 1t means that they put the re-
publican party in power to escape great
evil with which the success of the demo-
cratic party threatened the country, name
! ly, a debased currency. The republican
party would have been defeated if it had
not been for the assistance given it by
democrats, who abandoned their party for
the time being to save the country from
silver monometallism.
The republican party therefore cannot
feel free to follow the course it has here
tofore followed when It has been in pow
er. 1t must study the needs of the people
and legislate so as TO promote their well
fare. If 1t favors trusts force bills. ex-
travagant pensions, extravagant appro-
priations and a tariff that breeds monop-
olies it will lose control of congress two
years hence The people turned 1t out of
power promptly when it enacted the in
famous Mckinley tariff and they would
not hesitate to turn it out two years hence
If it should fail to carry on the government
in accordance with their ideas of right and
justice.
It is not forgotten that it was the re-
publican party that is responsible for all
the silver legislation from which the
country has suffered-the BlandAllison
act and the Sherman silver purchase bill.
That party put the country in great peril
by making concessions to the silver senti-
ment for the purpose of keeping itself in
power 1t would not have made a positive
declaration in favor of the gold standard
in the last campaign if it had not been
forced to do so by few strong men in its
national convention.
1t knows now that the majority of the
people are in favor of sound money, and
1t ought to have no hesitation in legis-
lating in accordance with the sound money
sentiment. 1t ought, as soon as it gets con-
troll of congress, undertake to reform the
currency. In nearly all sections of the
country, especially in the rural districts,
there is complaint of the scarcity of mon
ey. This is the case even when the banks
of New York have more money than they
can use probably. We are not prepared
to outline the currency reform that is need
ed, but that reform of that kind is re-
quired we have no hesitation in asserting.
What is wanted is not more money, but
a more nearly equal distribution Of money.
If this want had been satisfied five or six
years ago there would have been no free
silver coinage issue in the recent political
campaign. The want is just as imperative
now as it was then, and must be satisfied
If it should be ignored the lease of power
which has been granted to the republican
party will not prove to be a long one.

Not Tariff Nor Personality.
From the Baltimore Herald (Dem.) .

This great honor has been conferred
upon Maj. Mckinley, not by reason OF
his personality, but because he repre-
sents healthy financial principal which
meets the unqualified approval OF the
American people. This principle typihes
the sound dollar-the dollar that is worth
100 cents in intrinsic value-a dollar
which commands commercial respect in
all countries. and which constitutes the
basis Of prosperity in all trades the world
over.

Some of the New York papers of
Wednesday published what purported to
be the makeup of the next congress,
showing that the republicans would have
a clear majority of ninety-seven over all
opposition in the House. Tables of the
kind assuming to be authoritative would
be premature even at this date from the
fact that complete consultations are not
yet to be had. In Indiana, for instance
there have been three changes in the con-
gressional delegation since the publication
on Wednesday morning of the first re-
ports. 1t was then thought that the First
district had gone democratic and the Sec
ond and Fourth republican. The informa-
ton now is that they have gone precisely
the other way. The same kind of thing
is to be noted in other states. There is no
doubt that the republicans will have a
working majority In the House. but the
size Of it is still matter OF doubt.
