ACCORDING to the report of Secreta-
ry Carlisle, since the resumption of
specie payments in 1879, greenbacks
to the amount Of $470, ,49O, ,s97, and
Treasury notes to the amount of $685.
42S, ,381, making an aggregate Of $685.
.919,778, have been redeemed in gold.
AS the total amount of greenback cur
rency is about $346, 900, 900 it follows
that the entire volume of said notes
have been redeemed once, and part
twice over. This fact alone ought to
be sufficient to demonstrate beyond
question the urgent necessity for re-
firing the greenbacks, as they form
a most expensive currency. Interest
bearing bonds to the amount of $685.
315, 400 have been issued for their re-
demption and to cover up treasury
deficit during the past three years,
and though the notes have been more
than once redeemed, they are imme-
diately re-issued and ready for anoth-
er raid on the gold reserve. The an
nual interest upon the addition to the
public debt made necessary to main
tain the reserve, amounts to SIG, ,3l2, J
GIG, and the aggregate principal and
interest at the maturity Of the bonds
will be more than $64l, ,OOO, 900 and
still the notes (greenbacks will be
unpaid.

IN GENERAL

Five persons were burned to death in a
fire in the Commercial Hotel at Van
Kleek Hill, Ont, Wednesday night. The
dead: Mary Louise Yanreau, Christie
Villeneuve, Josephine Deschamps, Mrs.
T. Finn, Miss X. Mcleod.
Fathers Goyer and Lacoste, Roman
Catholic missionaries, who have arrived
in Quebec from Labrador, state that dis
ease and hunger are rapidly eXtermina-
ting the scattered Indian tribes of that
country. Government aid will be abso-
lutely necessary to the existence of these
wretched people this winter.
r. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade says:
clearinghouse certificates have not
been issued, but instead gold is coming
hither largely on the swiftest steamers,
about $4,000, 900 being already received.
Higher lending rates bring it, notwith-
standing foreign events which disturb
London markets and growing confidence
in the monetary future of the country
help. Liabilities in failures for three
weeks were $20,932, ,2S5, against S6,519,-
366 last year and $S,214, 40 in 1894. The
stoppage of Hilton, Hughes & Co. is not
included in these figures. The stoppage
of works also continues, including among
other iron works the Illinois Steel plant
at Hammond, Ind, and the Lakeside nail
works there. Disruption of the tinplate
association results from inability of many
concerns to go on paying wages demand
ed, and will presumably be followed by
the stoppage of some others. Iron works
are getting light new business, many con-
tracts having been deferred until after
the election and there is so little doing
that quotations are almost nominal"

Call for Subscriptions.

In response to the appeal recently

Validity of Gold Contracts.

The declaration in the Chicago plat
form, 1--WE favor such legislation as
will prevent for the future the demon
etization of any kind of legal tender
money by private contract" is, in some
quarters, declared to be a demand for
unconstitutional legislation by Con-
greSS.
A little more careful reading of the
Federal Constitution will correct that
impression. 1t is the States that are
prohibited from passing any law i'm
pairing the obligation of a contract,
and not the Federal Government. There
is apparently no constitutional impedi-
ment to the enactment of a law by Con-
gress by which all contracts calling
forth payment of money may not be
declared to be discharged by the ten
der of what Government declares to be
lawful money. In other words, the road
is clear, should the necessity arise, for
a law declaring gold contracts unlaw-
full.
1t is true that in the absence of such
eCleTul leSlSldUlUu lue utClSlOuS VI lllt
Supreme Court of the United States
have upheld contracts for payments in
coin, as it would uphold contracts for
the delivery of any specific commodity.
1t has upheld the California Specific
Contract law, and declared it not to be
in conflict with the greenback law.
The power of Congress, however, has
never been tested by an exercise in the
direction pointed out by the Chicago
resolution. 1t is very probable that, if
the determination of the speculative
classes to disturb the financial world
whenever they cannot control it, be per-
sisted in, it may become necessary for
Congress to Interfere in the interest
of the great mass of our people. If pub
lie attention shall be sufficiently direct
ed to this point the question of the
duty of Congress in the matter may
possibly enter into the Congressional
elections this coming fall.-New York
Mercury.

Worse Than the Heatben.


When q tribe Of African savageS find
rain in time of drouth, they set to work
and smash the lucbless image. 1t is
not related by travellers that the pieces
of the idol are even gathered up and
again worshiped by the men who were
disgusted when their fetish failed to an
swer their prayers.
Here in America we do things differ
emily. In 1888 the people elected Re
publican President and Congress under
the promise that laws would be enacted
which would make everybody rich and
prosperous. In the efforts to do this the
idol of Mckinleyism was set up, and
the people were told that it would in
crease employment for labor, advance
wages, and give better markets for
farm products. 1t did none of these
things, but, on the contrary, put in
creased taxes on labor's necessities and
by restricting foreign trade lessened our
farmers markets. While the Mckinley
tariff was in full operation factories
"NiS Nio'Oi, NHSCo NuI uOh -, az iCsiot IL
million workers thrown into idleness,
and prices of farm products forced low
er than ever before. When panic and
business disaster came in 1893, the Nc
Kinley idol was powerless to help the
people who had believed in it.
In 1892 great majority of the Ameri-
can voters declared that McKinleyism
was Il fraud, and elected President
and Congress pledged to abolish it. This
was done in 1894, and since that time
trade and industry have been steadily
improving. Now comes the faithful
band of protection worshipers and de
mand that their stuffed humbug of
high taxes be again made the policy of
the nation, and that the man whose
law was responsible for much of the
bankruptcy and suffering Of 1S93-1S94
be made President of the United States!
Truly the American people will be
worse than the heather if they again
exalt the Mckinley idol. Even a saw
age knows better than to Try for sec
ond time the fetish which he has found
to be a fraud. Intelligent citizens of a
civilized country should not have less
wisdom than African idolaters.

Decline of Mckinley.

The net result of the campaign thus
far is the decline of AIr. Mckinley in
the estimation Of the American people,
and this decline is occurring not merely
because he is the standard bearer for
cruel and dangerous combinations of
concentrated wealth, but because he
has signally failed to honestly en-
deavor Il demonstration of the advant-
ages of the mOnometallic policy to
which he and his party are committed.
At time when the great bulk of the
people have become personally ac-
quainted with hard times and are max
ing a desperate struggle to save them
told that they should vote for those
principles and those policies which will
achieve the greatest good and the high
est welfare to the country" When a
man says anything like that the peo-
pie want to know what he means By
it; they want to know what are the
principles and the policies he is talk
ing about. and why he thinks they will
achieve the greatest good to the coun-
try. They would like, for instance, to
have Mr.. Mckinley come out of his
dream of other days and tell them why
he thinks the existing gold standard is
good thing and must be preserved.
1t is because of his failure to talk to
the point that Mr.. Mckinley is shrink
ing in esteem. The jargon of states
manship no longer satisties. Facts and
reasons are in demand, and catchy
turn to Il sentence which evadeS the is
sue antagoniZeS instead of winning.
The people are everlastingly weary Of
being fooled. Tariff tinkering is like
treating man for corns when his
principal disease is smallpox. Cure him
of smallpox and call the corn doctor at
leisure.

II is safe to assert that among Amer

standard meets the needs OF America,
then gold ought to be in general circu-

never seen by the masses, shows that
as political issue it benefits one where
it oppresses 800. Free silver is the
issue which meets the needs of the 900.
