Expressions From the Newspapers of

Oakland Tribune: Do not fool your
self with the one idea that your troubles
and the country's stagnation in busi-
ness is all owing to the gold and silver
question. 1t is charged that silver was
demonetized way back in 1S73-yet
prosperity ruled paramount, and espe-
cially the years 1891 and 1892, up to the
election of the last named year were
years of plenty. 1t was tariff reform
that knocked business on it's beam end.
Since which time gold has been going
out of the country to meet balances.
RESPECT THE SMALL STATE.
Oakland Enquirer: Whether or not
the sentences of Rhodes, Hammond and
the other political prisoners in the
Transvaal are further commuted, one
more lesson will be enforced, viz: that
a nation, like a man, should not be de-
spised because small. The Johannes
