THE BANK FAILURES.

If Bryan had been elected and McKin-
ley had been defeated in the recent presi-
Dental election what homiles the gold.
tie press and the orators of the money
power would now utter regarding the re-
cent bank failures in Chicago and St..
Paul, says the Denver Republican. We
would be told that the success of free
coinage had destroyed confidence and the
hope of prosperity, and that the collapse
of these institutions was only a natural
consequence of the defeat of the gold
standard movement. They would say in
every kind of type and every tone of
voice that if Mckinley had been elected
there would have been a general resump-
tion of business activity throughout the
length and breadth of the land, and that
the dismal record of failures which has
accompanied the conspiracy to strike
down silver under the present administra-
tion would have ended on election day.
No doubt they will now endeavor to
dodge the Issue by using all the sophistry
at their command to make people be-
lieve that these failures are not of much
consequence anyway, and we're caused
merely by bad banking methods instead
of continuation of the general de-
preston which has prevailed in this
country ever since the bankers panic of
1898.

only cause Of our business troubles, as all

TARIFF TINkERINc Is ON.

The tariff tinkering has commenced
and Dlngley is supremely happy. This
distinguished northeasterner is in close
touch with the New England manufact-
ures, and as the interests of this class are
by no means identical with those of the
producers of the south and west, it is not
at all reasonable to suppose that fair
play is to be had for the latter sections
unless the manufacturers are forced into
submission. Western people, and espe
cially those engaged in the wool and hide
business, had best keep sharp eye on
Dingley and his crowd for the coming
few months, otherwise they may be hold
ing the bag of discrimination even under
the regime of that prince OF protection
lists, Major Mckinley.

HON. A. L. MORRISON.

HON. A. L. MORRISON.
just what position, if any, this distin-
guished citizen of New Mexico will ac-
cept at the hands of the incoming admin
istration, is still question of coniect.
ure to the people of the territory. But
his claims to preferment are recognized
at home and abroad, and the apprecia-
tion entertained for him by. President
elect Mckinley is so well understood in
prominent political circles that Judge
Morrison's anxiety will hinge on refus-
ing, rather than asking, for some appoint
ment in lieu of the commanding service
rendered the Republican party in the
late and previous campaigns. Mr.. Nor
rison has demonstrated that in political
matters he is wise, safe, prudent, eau
tious counselor, and he owes it to thepeo-
pie of New Mexico, to the country at
large, and more particularly to the great
party in whose interest he labored so
faithfully, to accept some Office of trust
and Importance that will fully realize his
acquired knowledge and experience in
governmental affairs.

ing the late campaign, we would like to
know why the success achieved by the
gold standard movement al the polls on
election day did not bring on the pros
perity which we were assured was certain
to follow that event? Everybody knows
that there is no likelihood that silver will
be restored to its old and just place and
value as money during the next four
years, and hence it can not be truthfully
held now that the possibility of remone-
tization is what causes failures to multi
ply and bank clearings and railway earn
ings to decrease at this time.
1t is possible, and, no doubt, probable
that if Bryan had been elected the same
failures would have occurred to Chicago
and st. Paul, but at least the country
would have the certainty of better times
ahead through an assured expansion of
the volume of currency on account of
prospective free coinage, whereas now
there is no such hopeful outlook and no
likelihood that the general level of prices
will advance until some scheme is adopted
for the enlargement of our money sup
ply.
The entire campaign of the self-styled
Sound money" forces was based on false
pretencse from first to last anG positive
proof of the correctness of this assertion
is found in the fact that general business
conditions throughout the country are
about as bad now as they have been at
any previous time since the panic of 1898.

The Difficulty is the Tariff.

In recent speech at La Grange, Ind.
Senator Burrows said:
with all the vagaries of the three
Bryan platforms they all unite in the de-
mand for the free and unlimited coinage
of silver at 16 to 1, and to that question
Mr.. Bryan devoted a goodly portion OF
his time in his speech of acceptance. He
declared that times are hard, prices are
low, and something is vitality wrong 1t
is not the crime of '73, however, but the
folly Of 80, when Harrison was defeated
and the prosperity of the United States
destroyed.
mr.. Whitney says: Don't talk about
the tariff But the whole difficulty to-
day is tariff. When Mckinley is president
the money question will settle itself.
more silver dollars were coined dur
ing Republican Administered tons than dur
ing all of the other eighty-three years of
our history.
'Panic always accompanies free trade.
During the thirty years from 1861 to
1892 we had unbounded prosperity;
wealth advanced; this republic took a
lead in manufacturing and stood ahead of
all other nations until March 4, 1893.
The public debt was reduced during Re-
publican administrations, and increased
under Democratic. There is not a single
day but the government is running be-
hind. The deficiency during July, 1896,
alone was $13,OOO,OOO.
'The results of the Democratic policy
are so evident that new issue was nee
essary to give them even a fighting
chance before the people in this cam
paign, and so they say that in 1873 the

Gen. Walkers BimetaIlism.

Francis A. Walker, president of the
Boston Institute of Technology, may be
called the leader of the bimetallists of
the United States, so far as man not in
politics can be called leader of a move
ment which has become political issue.
He has been an ardent advocate of inter-
national bimetallism for more than TWEEN
ty years. He speaks with authority on
all economic questions, but bimetallism
NAV be called his hobby.
A new book, written without regard to
the present situation, but singularly ap-
propriate, has just appeared, bearing
Gen. Walkers name on the title page.

Curiosfties of Our Money.

Few persons are aware that silver GER
tifcates are not legal tender, though re-
ceiyable for public dues. The fact was
recently, it is stated, forced on the
attention of the postofice department by
a person who refused to accept the GER
tifcates in payment of a money order.
Thus, it seems, the government is obliged
to receive silver certificates, but cannot
nav them out to any, one unwilling to re-
ceive them. Should our silver. friends be-
come able to legislate, they viii doubtless
make the certificates legal tender. so as
to force the unwilling patriot to take the
paper representative of So cents at a 100
cent valuation.

Not man of them will be able TO get a
