,-sw York, Feb. 1.-"Examine your

lat has gone quietly to all the cash
t.rs Of the retail dry goods stores. The
',rrtrv is flooded with counterfeits in
.resa denominations, and from the facts
t-ourht out by the recent arrests Of
couuterfeiters in different parts of the
country. it is deluged with bills of DIFF

There are specific directions given to
,be cashiers of stores and to the receiv-
,,a tellers of banks that aid them in de-
,a.ting bad money. They can do so at a
Glance when forewarned. But in the lat
-. case Of counterfeiting the bad bills
are so cleverly executed that the COM
rnoner. though he may be on the lookout
for them, will be deceived.
The day that fourteen Italian counter
feiters were arrested in New York spe-
cisl notes were taken of the bad bills ana
a few interesting points ascertained that
may help to tell when bad bill is pre-
scented.
Bogus s. bills are by far the most num-
erous of any at just this time. 1t is
thought that, previous to the arrest OF
the italian gang, they, or their pals, as
yet undetected. had been very successful
in showing the queer" as getting rid Of
bad money is called in professional talk.
This bad IS bill is an imitation so clever
that only experts could have discovered
It in the first place. It has been passing
for years, it is thought, as the plate is
so well worn that it must have been
printed over and over again many times.
Upon the bill is a portrait Of Gen.

The law regarding the passing of coun-
ter1eit money is. not understood by every
body. II YOU pay for goods in a store with

feeling is one of indignation. and your
next thought is that you will try il some
Wnere else. You took il as good and you
VIII use II as though it were good.
NOW, the law does not allow this. You
are liable 10 arrest for Offering d cG;:G-

plea that you did not know it was bad

you are held guilty until proven inDocent
Justice, however, takes prompt note of
the really innocent, and you can always
clear yourself, provided you do not try
the same bill twice. II you find you have
a doubtful bill your first act Is to go to

II II is counterfeit you lose the money.
In the recent raids in New York, St
Louis, Pennsylvania and Long Island
most startling discovery was made, and
that was, that the bills were being printed
IN Italy and sent over here. This was
first suspected from the fact that the
words were miSSDelled and put together
III an Italian manner. Afterward it was
round that the bills were coming over in
boxes OF maccaroni and in canned vege-
tables
It is thought that the counterfeit SO
bills that were found like spatter in the
west were done in the east and sent west
by express. They bear the portrait of Sec
rotary Window and have been changed
from y to $40 by erasing the figures and
putting Others in their places. Close scru-
tiny at the denomination of the bill shows
the erasure.
The way sleek counterfeiters work is
by any method that will escape suspicion.

BRYAN CANNOT CARRY HIS
OWN STATE.

Candidate Bryan who says he is
coming East for the purpose of cap
turing the enemy's country, would
have done better if he had remained
in his own State and made sure of
carrying that for free coinage of sill
yer, Judging from trustworthy ad-
vices from his own city and other
places in Nebraska. Shortly after
the Chicago convention we quoted
the opinions of leading resident of
Nebraska, and who was visiting old
friends in this vicinity who said that
Mr.. Bryan, with whom he was we'll
acquainted, was not a man one would
pick out for president of the United
States, and he did not believe the
democratic nominee could carry his
own State.
Testimony of similar nature has
been received from time to time from
Vermonters, of whom there are a
goodly number in Nebraska, and the
advices contrary to this are hardly
sufficient to form decent sized ex-
ception. One of the latest statements
in this direction is contained in a LEFT
ter received from leading citizen of

Abraham Lincoln had very clear
idea of protection. He once said: "If
the United States has $40 and needs
ton of iron and buys it in Europe it
has the ton of iron, but it has parted
with the money. If that sum of
money is spent on ton of iron pro-
duced and made in this country, then
we have saved both the iron and the
money This applies to every arti-
Gle which we import. We send
abroad the money which represents
the cost of $50, 100000 worth of cot
tons, s65, 100000 worth Of woolens,
and two or three hundred million
dollars worth of other goods which
we might make for ourselves, and
when the ship comes back we have
the goods, and the people on the
other side of the ocean have the mon
ey; and when we have continued this
until our warehouses are full of goods
for which there is no demand and the
foreigners have billion or two of
the dollars we have sent them we
wonder why we have so many goods
and so little money.

ON THE FENCE.

Senator Jones is too experienced a
politician to underestim ate the value
of the political services of David B.
Hill, and he will undoubtedly bid high
to obtain them. Senator Hill's con-
victions are utterly opposed to an
alliance with the victors at Chicago,
and if he possessed the sturdy integ-
rity of Cleveland the silver managers
would make no attempt to bring him
over. But, unfortunately, his past
career affords no guarantee that he
will not at any time sacrifice his
principles for the sake of a personal
advantage. Senator Hill is man of
great courage and great ability, but
in a conflict between duty and am
bition his conscience would be apt to
remain strictly neutral.
The oft-repeated declaration ssI am
a democrat', will also help to keep
the great New York leader from
boiling regular democratic nomina
ton. 1t is probable, therefore, that
he will yield reluctant support to
Bryan and SeWall. This would dis
appo int many who have hoped since
the Chicago convention that he had
risen to higher level and sunk the
partisan in the statesman, but it
would be consistent with his past as
sociations and not just subject for
reproach. But he cannot, without
utterly stultifying himself, indorse
the platform which he SO eloquently
denounced, and we believe he is to
Intelligent if not too honest to do SO.
Without his appreciation of the prin-
ciples for which he stands, Bryan will
gain little from his perfunctory sup
port. The good work he has done
cannot be undone, nor do we believe
he will make any Jealous attempt to
do SO. It is safe to say that the en-
ergies of David B. Hill during this
campaign will be directed SO as to
help himself most, with very little re-
gard for any other democrat
change.

WHY MCKINLEY rs A PRO
TECT7ONIST.

First.-Because, having tried Free
Trade, or Il Free Trade Tariff, four
times since 1888, it Free Trade) has
never once failed to cause excessive
imports and decreased exports, heavy
loss Of specie, suspension of our man
ufactories, low wages and enforced
idleness of our laborers, general in
ability to pay our debts, wide spread
bankruptcies, universal distress and
financial ruin.
Second.-Beeause having tried Pro-
lection five times since 1888, it has
never once failed to cause increasing
demand for labor, high wages for our
workmen, and lower prices for their
family and household necessities,
general and growing agricultural
prosperity, varied and multiplied in
dustries, strong development of our
educational and benevolent institu-
tions, and an increase of national
wealth unprecedented in the history of
any other nation.
Third.-Because the foregoing re-
suits in each case having been uni
form, unfailing and invariable, I am
compelled to believe that the said
evil results are inherent in the Free
Trade system, and that the said good
results are no less inherent in the
Protective system.
Fourth.-Because, these things be-
ing SO, must prefer that system that
brings universal prosperity, rather
than the one that causes general and
unavoidable adversity.-Wna. McKin-
leg.

Mr.. Williams begins to feel the re-
marks of the men formerly in his
party who have declined to support
reputation. We judge this from his
tone at Quincy recently when he at
tackled them, sneering at them as a
sssmall set of pretended leaders who,
having been overruled by majority
of the party, are now pouring out
their vials of wrath upon the majori-
ty which has defeated them" He
went on to say that it was smalnly
through the so-called democratic
press" that he and his folly were be-
ing exposed. ssThey do not easily
give up their leadership. But their
leadership is gone and the democracy
of Mass, and the nation realize
full well that the party las been
cieansed and purified by the depart
ure of these men, So there is some
amusement even in dog-days for
Whitney, Cochran, Gray, Sickles,
Herbert, Olney and the rest. They
can get it by tracing on paper the
political career of G. F. w.

What the agriculturist of this coun
try wants, more than anything else,
after he has gathered his crop, are
consumers at home, men who do not
produce what they eat, but must pur
chase all they consume; men who are
engaged in manufacturing, in mining,
in cotton spinning, in the potteries,
and in the thousands of productive
industries which command all their
time and energy, and whose employ
ments do not admit of their produc-
ing their own food. The American
agriculturist further wants these con-
sumers near and convenient to his
field of supply. Cheap as inland
transportation is, every mile saved is
money made. Every manufacturing
establishment in the United States,
wherever situated, is of priceless
value to the farmers of the country.

Omaha by friends in this section. Al
though he has been a life long demo-
crat he says that he cannot support
the ticket or the platform this year,
and he is confident that Bryan cannot
carry his own State.
Some may claim that this is parti-
san testimony in spite of the fact that
the last quoted is an old school dem
ocrat This may be true but unfor-
tunately for our free silver coinage
friends in the East who may be in
clined to question its correctness, it is
confirmed out of the mouth of sill
yer man of Nebraska. A resident of
Lincoln, who is a personal friend of
Bryan and one of his ardent support
ers, is visiting friends in Chittenden
county, and the story he tells can
hardly be reassuring to the lonesome
Bryanites in the Green Mountain
State.
This resident of Lincoln has just re-
ceived letter from man in his own
Office who says that crops are looking
splendid in this vicinity as result of
the recent favorable weather. He al
SO says that cos'n never stood SO high
as at present, and the republicans are
thicker than ever.
1t was probably not expected that
this information would find its way
into the press in Vermont, but it is
obtained from a source which we
would not venture to question and it's
value is sufficient warrant for giving
it to the public. 1t is not partisan, it
cannot be gainsaid and it tends to
confirm previous testimony going to
show that Candidate Bryan cannot
carry Nebraska let alone the more
Eastern States in the great battle
ground of the present campaign.
In national election the man who
cannot carry his own State at the
present time is lost beyond all hope
of political salvation.-FreeP Press.

ssIt is as easy to justify bounty as
a Protective Tariff, and it is impos-
sible to justify either"
This is Mr.. Bryan's opinion in rela-
ton to the production of sugar in the
United States. We doubt whether we
can add any force thereto by editorial
comment. We commend the above
sentence to the beet, cane and maple
sugar producers of all sections of the
United States. IF elected President,
MIR. Bryan will give them no Protec-
ton from the cheap labor and bounty
paid sugar that is produced in other
countries. Mr.. Bryan viii ruin Amer
lean farms and reduce the farm own
ers to absolute impoverishment. .-Er-

The death of the color bearer in
Col. Shaw's famous regiment has
brought into print his reply to those
who asked the aged colored man If
he had a pension. NO." he said;
s'the pension agents come to me and
say, why not get a pension?' and
reply, why, was not wounded. I'm
not sick, and Pm not entitled to
one.' - Such a statement marked
him as man well suited to bear the
colors under such a leader as Shaw.

The career of the late Count Zubof,
whose title to that name was as
doubtful as the authenticity of some
of the drafts upon which he received
money, is a bright and shining exam
pie of what a young man with an
ambition to win good name should
avoid. The dead adventurer had
plenty Of talent, social accomplish
ments, cultivated tastes and the
capacity to make friends. Had he
possessed the virtues of prudence,
honesty and self denial he might have
had an honorable place ir the world
of society and letters. But he fully
agreed with the philosop her who
will dispense with the necess aries of
life.n The consequence was, that
there were times during his exist
ence when he was deprived of both,
and that after a short period of sun
shine, when he was received as lion
by the aesthetic part of Boston, he
was subjected to the most bitter per-
sonal humiliation, which would have
driven some men to the suicides
grave that eventually claimed him.
Had the rising young Russian been
content to live according to his
means, he would not have had so
many friends as he did when he was
in mis- glory, but it is probable that
he would have had many more at his
funeral. The real value of the social
acquaintances which he strove to ac-
quire may be seen by the treatment
accorded him by society after his ex-
posure.

Congressman John K. Cowen of
Baltimore, the first prominent demo
crat there, to bolt the party and de-
clare that he will vote for Mckinley,
after reviewing the report of the
Committee on Resoluti ons, said:
''Free silver, fat money and free
riot are the three prominent features
of this platform. It is the most re-
dictionary programme that has ever
emanated from party convention in
the United States, and in my judg
ment it is the duty of every good
democrat to denounce the platform
in season and out of season, and to
vote against the man who stands up
on it. I think the reaction will set in
when the sober and conserv ative
classes of the community appreciate
the widespread panic and ruin
which would follow the success of the
men who have stolen the democratic
livery. I think it is not only the duty
of the democrats to vote, but to
work against the ticket and platform
adopted at Chicago, and [ shall do
both.

Some one wants to know just what
the German American vote amounts
to in the West, in connectihn, we sup
pose, with the pronounced detection
of Germans from free silver and for
sound money. In the twelve states
called north central by the census,
the German vote exceeds 800, 900.
Roughly speaking, it is about $4,000
in Ohio, 10000 in Indiana, 115, 900 in
Illinois, 1000 in Michigan, 80, 600 in
Wisconsin, 10000 in each of the
states of Minnesota, Iowa and Mis-
souri,, 5000 in Nebraska, and $4,000
in Kansas. Although these figures
are only approximate, they are not
far out of the way, 1t is great
power and the free silverites are US
ing every power to ALLEVIATE it from

There are many democrats who will
support Bryan on the plea that he
was the regular nominee of the Chi
cago convention. These men would
apparently endorse any one that was
regularly nominated, even though
they stood upon a ticket that was to
do away with our present form of
government They let their party
feelings get away with them and vote
their party ticket regardless of what
the consequences may be. Their ex-
cuse is untrue. The Chicago ticket
was not nominated by their party, but
by the men who uphold Tillman and
Atgeld. Several regularly elected
sound money democrats were ex-
PEELED and silver democrats or popu
lists were put IN their places. This
was the way they succeeded in poll
ing the necessary vote, and in adopt
ing platform which is populistic in
stead of democratic.
