Chauncey Depew says that 80
men in New York can stop every
railroad, shut down every mill and
close every coal mine in the U. S.
If this is true, how long will it be
before one man can do it? Don't
you think policy that produces
such results should be stopped right
now before it is too late?

The Gold Standard and Hard Times.


Railroad receiverships, bankrupt
merchants, closed factories, and de-
spairing farmers confront us every
where. As the election approaches
assignments increase and foreclosures
multiply; and, as might be expected,
the gold people are putting forth their
best efforts to create the impression
that these calamities are the result of
free silver agitation. They tell us that
the Chicago platform and the nomi-
nation of Bryan are the producing
causes, and promise an unparalleled
panic in the event of their success.
These assertions may be made in good
faith. Doubtless they are many; but
1T is real pity that those making
-tthon shoHfd, in their zeal and haste
to save the country from what they
honestly believe to be anarchy, so ut
terly overlook the facts wrapped in
the present situation. Why is it they
so persistently close their eyes to the
fact that in the year 1895, two hun
dred and seven of our railroads, COM
prising mileage of 43, 43l miles, and
with capital stock of nearly three
billions of dollars, were in the hands
of receivers? These properties would
appear, therefore, to have been over
taken by misfortune before the Chi
cago platform was written and before
Bryan had been thought of as a can.
didate. Likewise in our own State,
the great trunk-lines, the Baltimore
& Ohio and the Norfolk g. Western,
had passed into bankruptcy before the
party of the people even assembled at
Chicago. They also lose sight Of the
fact that early in the nineties bank
failures in this country were counted
not by the score but by the hundreds,
and that the treasury had been depict
ed and 1852, 600, 900. 90 of government
bonds issued. 1t would also be easy
for these gentlemen to ascertain that
the enormous mortgage indebtedness
of the farmer of this country, and the
discouraging prices of his products an
tedate by years the present money agi-
tation. Why not be fair In the prem
ises? To be so might not suit the
purposes and interests of some, but it
would at least leave no sting Of con-
science behind However, the course
pursued will accomplish little, for ev-
cry man in the land knows that free
silver agitation is not the cause Of
hard times, but that hard times have
caused free silver agitation; and IL
will also be borne in mind that we
have had the present gold standard all
the while.
People who appear upon the scene
as patriots and morailsts, who claim
to love their country and its people,
should at least be frank and careful Of
their statements, lest they disseminate
false doctrine among those whose in
terests they have so much at heart,
and over whose distress and trouble |
they spend so many sleeplcss nights.

ST. Louis is at the center Of greater
mileage OF railways than any other city in

radius Of Ave hundred miles there is n great
er population surrounding st. Louis than
around any other American city within
like radius. The reason for this fact is
readily enough explained by the central
geographical position OF the Missouri met

Congressman Pitney and the River and
Harhor ISIlI.

The HLnterdon Democrat, the Warren
Journal, the Hackettstown Gazette and
other Democratic papers in this congress
sional district, have begun TO misrepre
sent congressman Pitney, probably with
a view TO injure the popularity that he
has gained by his able and judicious
course as representative.
All of these papers have recently charg-
ed that he voted for the River and Har-
Dor bill, and some OF them have reiterat-
ed it. Now the fact is that our excellent
representative voted against that measure
at every opportunity, and has shown
throughout his course a desire TO prevent
any extravaganza in appropriations.
The charge that he voted for the bill
seems to he vicious for the fact could
easily have been ascertained II these
papers GO not withdraw their charge, 1t
will convince all honorable people that
they are willing to gain political point
at the expense OF fairness and truth.
When Mr.. Pitney's record is truthfully
written it will show that he has taken the
peoples side on all important questions !;
that be has been careful and conscien-
tious guardian of the public interests and
that by his ability he has honored the
Fourth Congressional District and gwen
1t a prominence in Congress not hereto
fore enjoyed.

The taste displayed by people who
get up dance on Memorial day is Of the
worst order. A day set apart to honor
those who have died for their country Is
dishonored by all such performances. II
this day is to degenerate into day Of
frivolity, to the neglect of the purpose for
which it was instituted, il would be well
for the Grand Army to fix Memorial day
upon varying dates, so that the holiday
phase would not be so prominent.
