A Significant Straw.

One OF the few really important
"straws" tending to show the direction
of the political wind is supplied by the
New York Journal. a paper which sup
ports Bryan. 1t recently took a poll of
few more than 10000 voters in New
York city distributed through all the
ordinary vocations. Il found that of
the j.C6j Republicans who expressed
their intentions, J32 said they would
vote for Bryan. while OF the 4,437 Demo-
Gratis interviewed, s29 declared they
would vote for Mckinley.
As the Washington star points out,
these figures show that a fraction of
over 20 per cent. Of the Democrats in
terviewed viii vote for the Republican
nominee, while a fraction less than 10
per cent. of the Republicans interviewed
will vote for the Democratic Populistic
candidate. Apply these proportions
to the latest vote of New York on the
presidency In 1892 Harrison received
609, $50 votes in the state of New York
and Cleveland 65iS6S votes. Taking
from Harrison's vote 10 per cent of it
and adding to it 20 per cent of the
Cleveland vote places the Republican
strength on the basis at 6Is, ,3SS, and ap-
,,l, 81 ha h.r
side the Democratic strength becomes
JS4,S30, giving an apparent plurality in
the state for the Republicans of 81 ,JjS.
OF course the city conditions predomi-
mated in this tally, and it may be that
later efforts up-country will produce diff
ferent proportions. AS some of the vo-
ters thus canvassed came from New
Jersey, it is fair to take a count of the
vote of that state in the same manner.
and the result is an apparent plu-
rality for Mckinley of 22,230.
friendly to the Democratic nominee,
make be taken as at lsast fair to Bryan.
But the conditions of the campaign in
New York and New Jersey are such
that while a goodly percentage of the
disaffected Republicans will during the
progress of the canvass be won back
into line, the number of boiling Demo-
Gratis will be likely to grow. 1t is evil
dent from the speech of the leading ad-
ministration officials at Washington
that the whole force of the Cleveland
time onward be massed as far as pos
.sible in favor of Mckinley. AS the
cial and financial interests which have
their headquarters in New York will
become aroused to redoubled efforts in
behalf of the nominee of sound money
Consequently, instead of majority Of
100000 in New York state and one of
$4,000 i'm New Jersey, Mckinley will be
more likely to have 900 in New York
and 5000 in New Jersey.
The battle, in any event, will be
fought in the middle west and south; I;
in such states as Delaware, Maryland,
Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, In
diana, Michigan, Illinois. Kansas,
Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota, Iowa,
and the Dakotas. And until the war
once fairly opens in those states. pre-
dIctions will have little serious value.

l recall no work that even attempts 10
cover the field marked out by Mr.. CurIiss.
He has undoubtedly carried the statistical
information farther than any other writer,
and embodied in /, a series of tables taken
from official sources which will be of per-
manent value. 1t is cue of the strongest
presentations oe the views of thoseswho
believe that the question of finding en-
ployment for the people in diversified In
dustries, of elevating citizenship and i'm
proving home life. lies at the base of the
science of economies. II should be in he
hands of every intelligent voter who is
called upon to decide between free trade
and protection, or who desires to base his
decision on the balance sheet OF nations.
To attempt in detail review of this
exhaustive work would take us far be-
yond the limits of this article. Although
it Is a volume of convenient reference,
with ample indexes to facilitate the
finding of special information for special
purposes. and on that account exceed
ingly useful to writer's or speakers on
the tariff question, it is really worthy
to be read and studied as a systematic
and harmonious exposition of the phil
osophy of protection. 1t is not often
that we receive a book deserving Of un-
qualified and enthusiastic Endorsement;
but this is such book, and We are en-
tlrely willing to stand sponsor for its
introduction to Scrantonians.

years these same boiling Democrats
unrelentingly reviled and lampooned

own heart, doesn't expect Bryan to
come within forty miles of an election.

Taylor's directory for 1886. which has
just been issued gives the population
of Scranton at 1Oe,O0S. This showing is
a trine smaller than we expected: but
1t nevertheless contrasts favorably with
the 1926 population accorded to us by
the Eleventh census. The probability
is that Scranton will open the next CEN
tury with close to 10000 inhabitants.
The coming four years of Mckinley
prosperity will be likely TO work Won

tress on tnlS account alone that Wou!u Ioi-
low the free coinage OF silver.
Another correspondent learns that man.
farmers who favor free coinage expect to
sell their products abroad for gold. and
then obtain for every gold dollar two fifty
cent silver dollars with which to pay
their debts. No Intelligent farmer can
make any such calculation. Under free
coinage American farmers would receive,
the same as now, for their staple products,
whether shipped abroad or consumed at
home the price paid in foreign markets
measured by gold. There Is no artifice Of
government or magic by which this gold
could be increased in value by converting
1t into cheap silver dollars. Cut under
free coinage as demanded by tne Chicago
platform the foreign as we'll as the Amer
lean owners of silver, whether in bullion
or In plate or old spoons, would have an
immense advantage over the non-owners
in that they could take the deprecated
metal to the United States mints and have
st converted into standard dollars at
double its real worth. But there are
some advocates of free coinage VINO insist
that ii would raise the value of silver TO
the relation of Is to with gold. That Is
as much as TO say that the price OF woolen
cloths. of cotton prints would rise with the
increase of the facilities for their pro-
duction. There are many silveri,es, how
ever whose interest in this question would
entirely cease If they believed that Tree
coinage would have the effect of raising
the market value of silver TO the ratio or
IL to | with gold. What they want is de-
preciated currency; and they never gave
themselves any concern for free coinage
until silver had heavily deprecated in the
worlds markets.

The Salt Lake Tribune urges Utah
Republicans to support Bryan but to tie
his hands if elected by means of Pro-
lection congress. It fails, however, to
explain how the handful Of bOlting Re-
publican silverites are to do this as
against the overwhelming Democratic
and PCpulistc demand for free trade.
The clear fact is that the election of
Bryan would mean both free silver and
free trade. No Protectionist can work
for one without inviting the other.

Still another reader calls attention to
the oft-repeated complaints that there is
not enough money in the land to pay the
farmers decent prices for their products,
and that this scarcity OF money is due TO
the gold standard. for the equitable main
tenance of which the mines of the world
cannot produce sufficient gold. This ar.
gument OF the silverites deserves, and will
receive. more consideration than can be
given to II In these brief replies. But Il
has been shown over and over again that
there Is more money In the country per
head than there was when wheat was
treble its present price. and that there Is
no other land In the world except France
in which the currency per head OF popu-
lation is as abundant as It is in the United
States. 1t has also been shown that the
difference iI the quantity of currency per
head in two countries of like industrial
conditions causes no difference in the
prices of commodities. If the quantity OF
money determined rates Of wages and the
prices of farm products and other COM
modities the level would be made higher
in France, with its greater abundance OF
currency, than in Great Britain; but the
reverse Is the actual case.

As to the silverite pretension that the
increased production of gold is hardly suf"
ficient to meet the increased need of X COR
plugging teeth the official statistics DEM
onstrate that the annual gold production
Of the world is greater now than in any
former period, having risen from slO6, l63,-
800 in 1856 to $50 500, 900 in 1894. At the same
time DR.. Soetheer, the highest author
ity (and an advocate of modified interna-
tional bimetallism), has shown that the
yearly use of gold in the arts and manu-
features does not exceed SG3,WOOD, or
about one-third of the yearly production.
The fact is that under sound systems or
finance and exchange the existing store
of gold and the yearly accumulations are
more than sufficient for the transaction
of the worlds business. AS we write au-
thentic news comes of the discovery OF
rich mines of gold in the Orange Free
state. The cry OF the great scarcity OF
gold and OF the great decline of prices In
consequences of it, like the rest of the
Populist assertions, is totally wanting in
the essential element of truth.

The New Bill Will Have Serious Ell
fecf Sa,1,aa IssId -

The New Bill Will Have Serious Eff
feet ON Some American Industries.
Reports from United States consular Off
GERS in Germany indicate that the oleo-
margarine bill which passed the reichstag
yesterday will, If it receives the approval
of the bundsrath, have a serious effect up
on certain American Industries, and prin-
cipally upon the cotton seed oil export
trade. The new law is most severe in its
terms, and Is intended to prevent the COM
petition of the artificial butter with the
real article, altho ugh its nominal purpose
is to raise revenue. One of the means pro-
posed to prevent the use of oleo for butter
was to require the makers Of oleo to color
1t pink instead Of using annato, and thus
giving 1t a similitude to butter. OF course
1t was expected that no public house would
have the hardihood to use the pink COM
pound on its tables, and thus competition
with butter would be stopped. 1t is not
possible as yet to learn whether or not this
propose, (which was embodied in an amend
ment pending before the committee, has
been included in the new bill, but, aside
from this peculiar provision, there were
other clauses in the measure that would
undoubtedly tend to prohibit the use Of
oleomargarine. and thus to cut off the i'm
portation of the American cotton seed oil
which formed one of the principal ingre-
dients.

The New Flag to BE Flung to the
Breeze Tomorrow.
Tomorrow, for the first time, the flag
of the United States will be flown with
forty-five stars on Its blue field indicating
the admission of Utah to the sisterhood
of states. General orders issued by the
War and Navy Departments have pre-
pared the way for the change, and for
several months past the flag makers have
been busy in placing new star on the
flags i'm stock. The army flags are sup
piled by private contractors, and although
some of the posts have been furnished
with the new flags. all of the deliveries
have not yet been made. From economi-
cal considerations the old army flags will
not be retired at once. but Will be replaced
only as they are worn out in service by
the new ensigns. Some of them may be
altered by the insertion of new fields, but
this is net possible or expedient in the
case of the beautiful silk flags, and as
these cost as much as 800 apiece 1t Is
deemed best to wear them out instead of
throwing them away.
In the case of the naval flags the change
was more easily made. for all of these
flags are made at the New York and Mare
Island navy yards, while those on hand
on shipboard may be readily altered by
the expert sailmakers.
