new project has been started, or an old che
revived for the establishment of a National Uni
versity at Washington. If there were no other
reason for opposing such an enterprise, 1t might
be sufficient criticism to say that in all proba-
bility the institution would be left at frequent in
tervas to get along as best it might with an APP
preparation Of about dollar and half or two
dollars. That is the way in which the imperative
requirement OF National defence has been treated
and there Is warrant for assuming that an edu-
catlonal undertaking would fare any better.

Mayor Wurster's first appointment Is an ear
nest of the character Of the men with whom he
means to surround himself for the coming two
years For Corporation Counsel he has selected
Joseph a. Burr, lawyer OF experience and good
repute, who has apparently been chosen solely
on the ground Of fitness and not for personal or
political reasons. Mr.. Burr's term of office Will
not begin until February !. but IN the mean
time the new Mayor will no doubt seek his adj
vice unofflcially on many subjects. The rela-
tons between the Mayor and the Corporation
Counsel under the Brooklyn charter are neces-
sarily intimate and the reasons for an early
announcement by Mr.. Wurster OF this appoint
ment are obvious. AS to his other appointments
the Mayor has been remarkably successful In
keeping his own counsel; even his close associ-
ates in the Scheren Cabinet are yet In Ignorance
of his intentions.

The fact that an abuse is hoary

After Grover Cleveland retires

make seven or eight million dollars
out of salary of $4,000 could
certainly give valuable instructions
on this line.

workers are beginning to see this,

spent in argument, convert him to
the principles of the Populist par y,
and he would then vote the whole
ticket. Don't scatter.

abolition of the fee system, but the
taxpayer would be benefited there
by. A Populist Legislature would
knock the fee system stiff.

The latest dodge now being
worked by the gold standard crowd
upon their dupes who have failed to
post themselves upon the money
.ouestion is tc tell them that the "l6
to |" means the "the coming of l6
silver dollar to one gold dollar"
1t would seem that a man who
would believe such nonsense would
certainly be fit subject for "a luna
tic asylum, but nevertheless we
have such men running at large
right here in Springfield, and while
we have repeatedly explained to
our readers what is meant by the
term "l6 to |, we will, for the
benefit of those who have never
read anything but old party gold
standard papers, explain what is
meant by the expression of "free
and unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at the ratio of sixteen to one"
"Frce and unlimited coinage of sill
yer" simply means that any person
having silver bullion can take it to
any of the United States minis and
have it coined into money And
the expression "at the ratio of l6
to |" means that silver dollar must
contain l6 times as many grains as
the gold dollar, which was the ratio
prior to the decentralization act of
1873. Instead of coming Is silver
dollars to one of gold, it takes l6,
times as much silver bullion to make
a dollar as it does of gold. Now
all the Legislation needed to restore
silver to It's place as money is to
repeal the act of 1878 and re.enact
the law in force prior to that date,
and the work is done.-l6 to !.

Uncle Sam as u Banker.

Although few persons are aware
Of the fact, the Government is in
the banking business on a small
scale. 1t will accept money on de-
post from any one the only dit
ference is that, instead of paying
interest on the deposit, the Govern
ment demands payment for keeping
some, Assistant Postmaster Little
explained the system this morning
eff a man wants the government
to keep money for hiT, all he has to
do is to purchase postal money or
der, payable to himself, at this Of
fee or any other he may designate,
any by paying the usual fee it will
be kept for him as long as desired.
When he wishes to withdraw his de-
post all he has to do is to present
himself at the Office mentioned in
the order and he will be given the
money. "Many who are aware OF
this have turned their money over
to the government, knowing it is
perfectly safe, and l am sure we
have thousands of dollars deposited
in this postoffice right now in that
way. The exact figures, of course,
couldn't give you.-St. Louis
Evening Journal.
Now this system would be abso.
lutely safe and the Co-Operator
vouches for the correctness OF the
above statement. AS an example
A man can go into money order
postoflice and buy three 500 money
orders, made payable to himself,
which will cost him 90 cents, and he
can leave it on deposit Just as long
as he chooses and get his money
with absolute certainty whenever
he wants it, and no panic or bank
failure effects him in the least. He
can only get three 500 orders pay
able to one person the same day,
but he can repea, the operation as
many days as he desires Thou
sands of dollars are lost by deposit
ing money in banks by laboring
men who wish to protect them
selves from thieves only to find at
last that a thief was inside the
bank. Their object in depositing
was to have a safe place for their
money. To all such persons the
Co.Operator advises them to buy
money order of Uncle Sam and then
they can lie down and sleep with
safety and can get their money
when they desire it.-Topeka CO.

All gold advocates and all free sill

there would be correspondent rise
