KING BILL FOR PEACE.

1t is proverbial that monarehs taIk
peace. The war god of Germany j.
the only modern exception. But KAISER
william may be only talker. He
had a provocation in the TransvaaI
episode, another only a couple of weeks
ago in the bombardment OF Zanzibar
when TIE routed sultan took refuge in
the German consulate. The average
monarch talks peace even when there
is no peace. but William talks war at
times when peace IS the only possible
thing. He has rather delighted TO toy
with war clouds and give vent TO hints
of portentioes character. II has
been intimated that upon more than
one occasion he has nearly scared his
grandmother into something Ike an
interest IL the affairs Of the world and
of her own dependencies lie may
therefore be credited with sincerity II
his latest declaration, made az EIer'itz
one night last week, in which he pro
nounced himself in accord. with the
car. wIose efforts are directed to-
ward drawing together the peoples q
Europe and uniting them upoa the
grounds OF COMMON interest," Such
utterances may not perciptio'y lessen
the expenditures for military estab-
lishnlents in Europe, but they viii tale
away every pretext for making them
auy larger.

AWAY WITH LEGAL TENDER.

The people Of the United States seem
to have simultaneously and unanimous
~ turned financiers. putting in more or
less of every day in discussing the I'm
ancial question. The average finance
paper Is not in ii in the discussion OF
the money question. But there Is q
financial periodical which seems to be
up with the revolutionary or. mayhap,
progressive spirit Of the times. The
Baltimore Financial and Commercial
World in it's last issue is out with the
declaration that more harm than good
comes of the governments undertaking
to say what shall be illegal tender"
Good money will be accepted when ten
dered without the cOmpulsion OF law.
Legal tender" had its origin in the
Middle Ages with the early English
and French kings, who debased their
coins and then tried to force the ac-
ceptance of the light coins by making
them legal tender. 1t was fraudu-
lent device Of these early kings, and
is proposed nowadays in similar
spirit. 1t is enough that the govern
ment stamp should indicate the weight
and f1neness of a coin, leaving 1t TO
the public to say what it shall pass for.
This would be demonetizing both gold
and silver, and yet after 1t was done,
we should stin have as much real
money as before. Suppose" says the
Financial and Commercial World,
''that we coin both gold and silver ac-
cording to a stated measure OF weight
and fineness, land coin anything else
that people might want coined0 simply
giving it the stamp of the government
certificate as to weight and ineness
then let it take whatever value it might
have in the market as commodity,
including that value which 1t derives
because Of its value as q medium OF
exchange. That is what gold really is,
a commodity, having in addition to its
ordinary value a utility as an e1-
change"

HES A PAPER MAN."

When David Overmyer made his
speech in Wichita two years ago in his
gubernatorial canvass, he was espe-
cially bitter toward the Peoples Party.
The Peoples Party came in for his
kcenest denunciation. In his mind
this party is one of socialism, paternal
isri if not anarchy. OF all the dangers,
political dangers to Kansas credit and
the future of the state the Populists'
success would be the worst 1t was an
open secret that David thought Repub-
ican success in the state OF Kansas In
1894 Infinitely better to the "wiid-eyed
Pop1Iists." OF all the many reforms"
proposed by the Populists,-not one In
the eyes Of David Overmyer Lad any
merlt-in fact not one but was public
menace.
When he came to the money question
he was particularly severe upon the
Pops. He said that there was no hope
of free coinage Of silver from the Popu-
lists. And with a sneer he said the
Fopulist was not silver man-but q
paper man. OF course this IS true.
No Popuist ever sought to deny this
allegation. Had Overmyer been con-
tradicted In this he would have refer
red to PETERS farmers side" and
have shown that this eminent Populist
held the view that the coinage Of silver
would be no remedy. Whether there
were coined 10000 or ], OOO, OOO, 900 Of
silver it would make little difference
while the coined silver would go into
private hands and into banks to be
loaned at the present rates Of interest
Government money and ''gratuitous
loans is the only safety Of the com
mon people" The governments func-
ton is to issue money and 1t should be
its duty to furnish it to the people "at
cost"
The present high rates OF interest Is
the cause Of all the woes. To allow
private banking corporations to issue
money or to expect relief from the pri-
yate owner of bullion, coming his bull
lion and putting it into circulation Is
unreasonable Under either circnm-
stance the ruling raJe OF interest will
be charged. While that Is true there
can be no remedy. National currency.
legal tender treasury notes, issued in
volume sufficient TO do "the business
of the country on a cash basis to be
loaned TO the people at not more than
per cent per annum upon nonperish-
able products as indicated in the sub
treasury PLAN" or something better is
the only salvation Of the plain people.
Had anybody disputed David in his
assault upon the Populists, in that they
were paper men," had no faith in free
silver or any metal money he could
have overwhelmed him by quoting
Populist literature and platforms To
confirm his statement IL Is not at all
likely that any Populist should want to
deny the statement OF Nr. Overmyer.
X Is recognized as true, that now they
have very little faith in free silver as
a remedy for financial evils.
They believe now as ever that PR
vate coinage Of silver. though free and

ton OF their reform lies this PROPOSE

was being ripped open, the sea threat

either being shaken up or topped over,

was little time for studied phrases.
The danger was iminent. the emer-

was no hold on earth left, and heaven

WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN.

Whatever may be said of Bryan'S
mental characteristics and political
convictions, and however fair his per-
sonal character may be, there is no
DENYING the fact that Altgeld OF Hi
nois. and Tillman OF South Carolina,
are his two trusted advisors. The
two most extreme men of note at the
present time in this country are Altgeid
and Tillman. By 4 majority or people
they are looked upon as dangerous, not
only because Of their words but OF their
acts. In the event Of his election that
both of these men would be closely
identified with his administration is
conceded Being potent forces In the
Bryan party, having had much to do
with the making Of the Chicago plat
form it would be but natural that Bry-
an would turn to these men for counsel
and support Bryan is not q Grover
Cleveland in the least sense OF smallest
degree. The great responsibilities or
the affairs of state would overwhelm
him, and Altgeld and Tillman would be
turned to for aid and advice in the ex-
IRENE pressure. Aftgeld being the
stronger man Of the three would prac-
tica!ly become president of republic
whose constitution bars him. What
might happen it is impossible TO fore
tell. We can only guess from our
knowledge of the men Estimated by
their declarations and official acts OF
the past there would be little to hope
and much TO fear. That hitherto harm
less emblem the pitchfork would in all
proba bility become real thing OF ter

WOOL AND SILVER.

Anent Governor McKinley's talk day
before yesterday, to the one thousand
wool growers, who gathered about the
porch of his Canton home, probably
few realize the importance Of that in
dusfry to the United States, and the
loss it sustained IN the repeal OF the
Mckinley bill 1t is even doubtful If
the mountain states and territories
know what the Wilson bill has cost
them, or that, for some OF them, the
wool industry under a protective tariff
means more money than they can rea-
lie from their silver mines. This is
certainly true Of Utah, Arizona and
New Mexico. Hon. L. q. Slower, for
years now a resident Of Albuquerque,
New Mexico, formerly lieutenant gov
ernor of Kansas, and who a quarter Of
a century ago was state senator from
this district, which at that time includ-
ed Morris county and all southwest,
and who Is a business man Of eXper-
ience and success, In a late issue of an
Albuquerque paper shows the wool clip
of New Mexico to be Of far greater
value than the silver output Of her
mines More, he takes the official fig
ures Of the product Of silver for the
last year, in ounces, and muldplies 1t
by ST. per ounce, the price Of silver IN
a coined dollar, and then takes the wool
product of the territory for the same
year and proves that the people Of New
Mexico would have received more
money for the differences in the price
of wool under the Mckinley tariff and
the Wilson bill than from all the silver
mined in that country. In other words
the difference that New Mexico would
receive for It's wool under the Mckin-
ley and the present Wilson laws, re-
spectively, amounts to more than all
the silver product of the territory, even
if that silver be estimated at 100 cents
per ounce, or nearly twice the price
that silver is actually commanding.
Aggregates are very astonishing as a
rule. All this blow about the immense
value of the gold and silver product
of Colorado ia very misleading. Col
orado is anything but an agricultural
state, yet the agricultural products of
Colorado are worth more, bring more
money annually, than the entire pro-
duct Of both her gold and silver mines.
A half dozen counties in Kansas an
nually harvest more agricultural pro-
ducts than all the state Of Colorado,
consequently such half dozen counties
produce more wealth than all the gold
and silver mines of Colorado.

to be false than Mr.. Bryan himself.
1t would be charity toward these speak
ers and writer's to attribute it to ignor-
ance, but they are not ignorant They
know that the passage of free coinage
law under existing conditions would
precipitate panic just as well as they
know the Republicans would carry
Maine They know that continu-
ence of the present tariff policy would
keep the mills closed, and perpetuate
the distress among wage-earners just
as well as they know that that state
OF things now exists. They don't be-
lieye solitary word OF all this clap
trap about the decentralization OF sill
yer being the sole cause OF hard times
in every branch of business. This
fallacy is refuted, in the eyes Of any
sensible man. who will stop to consider
the fact that we never had such pros
since 1873. 1t would be quite as rea-
sonable to say that this act of legisla-
ton was the sole cause of high wages
and good prices from 1880 TO 1892.
Both conditions have prevailed since
this "crime Of '13.' and it is as fair 10
assume that it was the cause of one as
the other.
But it happens to suit the purpose OF
these piratical Popocrats TO howl hard
times as a result of this act of congress.
Surely il proves a want Of argument
which would be pitiable were 1t not
so contemplate. If they would but
own that facts are facts, and that con-
ditions, like those known TO exist in
Maine, cannot be changed by willful
Misrepresentation they would greatly
strengthen their cause with sensible
people.
1t may be regretted that there are no
more Republican states like Vermont
and Maine to hold state elections be-
fore November. From the best autnor-
ity 1t is now known that Illinois, In
diana, Michigan and even Kentucky
would give Mckinley large plurality
vote today. With the tide running i'll
his favor as it now is, what may we not
expect in November?

A PREDICTION.

In the North American Review for
February, 1894, Senator Roger Q. Mills
said: 1.-The Democratic party, now in
possession Of the executive and legisla-
tive branches of the government, has,
from its origin been the advocate and
defender of equal rights and equal
duties. In the press, on the stump and
in conventions it has condemned every
form of legislation that conferred
bounties and exclusive privileges on
one class Of people and corresponding
burdens on another. Two years ago
the people took us at our word and
placed in our hands the constitutional
power to redeem the pledges we had so
often made. We are now face to face
with the responsibility, and the future
is soon to tell whether we have been
sincere in the professions we have
made and whether we have the ability
to execute the trust confded TO our
hands, Bold words these, especially
in the last sentence. We have the re-
spOnsibility, and the future is to tell
whether we have been sincere and
have the ability to execute the trust
confided 10 US.
Senator Mills among other things
connected with the ''Wilson bilI'' deals
with The idea that in breaking down
the protective principle by taking off
1.-THE tax on the materials OF manu-
facture" we would manufacture cheap
" enough to enable us TO sell our ware
in foreign markets and give employ
ment to labor.
He said: England is manufacture
ing and shipping abroad annually three
hundred million dollars worth of cotton
goods. 1t is in our power to take from
her the greater part OF this trade. To
produce these goods would give con-
slant and remunerative employment to
more than $4,000 persons" Then he
added that England saw with alarm
the triumph of Mr.. Cleveland as the
representative OF commercial expan-
sion. We have put our hands TO the
plough and should not look back. We
have started and should remember

ion OF the taskmasters II we would lie

dent in early spring. When tat Ia

and enter upon a career Of prosperity;
and ti... treasure Of its prosperity IN the
future will be marked by the extent 10
which its trade shall be liberated and
