bIlIties.
The statement often made in this
journal that n large percentage of the
so-called available cnsh balance" In
the United States treasury is liability
and not an asset, is borne out by the
frank admissions of Senator German.
During the naval debate the Maryland
statesman said that he conceded a full
treasury, yet there stood against this
balance $4,000, 900 appropriated before
this congress assembled and not yet
paid" IL was Germans further nffir-
nation that 1T will take every dollar
Ina the treasury to meet current ex-
penses and past appropriations and
there will be another raid on the gold re.
serve running IL down below the $780,,

cash balance" is now alleged TO stand Mt
about $275. 100000 IL represents nothing
but that amount of Indebtedness, which
the government will have to pay. Some

post office. and much more 10 the sugar

states and most OF the interior ones
have valid claims upon IL. Yet Secre-
tary Carlisle holds IL under lock and

1t is claimed that the gold standard
must be preserved SO that we can do busi-
ness with the world, using the worlds
money. The truth Is, there is no such
thing as the worlds money. Every
country has Its own money and Its money
is as distinct from the money of other
countries as Its flag. But what is the
use of worrying about the money of the
world when only four per cent of the
business of the country Is done with
foreign countriesf Ninety six per cent.
OF all the business of the country is done
with out neighbors and among the states.
the per cent will take care Of itself.

lege, graduating with honors in 1875. He
then removed Co Johnstown, n. Y, where
he supported himself by doing newspaper
work, studying law all the time. As .
reporter he went to Troy and was there
admitted to the bar in 1870.
Like all young lawyers he had n hard
struggle to get to the front, but after n
time he obtained recognition and became
very successful in his profession. Not un-
til 1894 did he find time to turn his atten-
tion to politics. 1t was at the time of the
unfortunate incident at the Republican
primaries in Troy when Robert Ross was
shot and killed. Lawyer Black took a
prominent part in the work Of organizing
the committee Of one hundred and was
chosen chairman Of that organization,
which forced the prosecution of Bat Shea
and secured his conviction and execution.
In the fall of that year he was nominated
for congress and was elected, although
the district had been Democratic before.
Since then he has become the Republican
leader In his district So, you sec, his rise
In politics has been swift and brilliant.
Mr. Black Is "a man of striking personal
appearance. He stands feet 2 inches in
his stockings, and his spare figure makes
him seem even taller His face is lean and
thin, and his piercing black eyes look out
through glasses which he constantly wears.
He Is married and has several children.
Timothy L. Woodruff Of Brooklyn is one
Of the most successful young business men
and the most prominent social leaders In
the City of Churches. He was born In
New Haven and Is descended from the
earliest settlers of Connecticut. He was
left an orphan at the age Of 10, but received
an excellent education, being graduated in
turn from Phillips academy at Exeter, N.
H., Yale college and Eastman's Bushes:
college. Then he went to Brooklyn and
was signally successful in business He 1:

concerns president or director in severa

societies. Five years ago he married Mis-:
Cora Eastman, daughter Of the late mayor
OF Poughkeepsie.

We make the assertion, and challenge
any merchant or any man who comes
in contact with the agricultural CLASSES
that II the farmers of Stark county had
today the money to buy what they really
need, one-half of the stock merchants are
so anxious to sell that their supplies
would be sold in one week. This is only
one town. Take 1t all over the country,
and there are many counties far worne
of than Stark and many cities where the

DAVID R. FRANCIS.

was educated at Washington university in
st. Louis. After being graduated he re-
turned TO Kentucky, andfor short time
studied law, but as his funds were low he
accepted an offer from his uncle, then the
head of large commission house in st.
Louis, and returned to that city to work
as shipping clerk. He developed so much
business ability that he soon became q
partner In the firm, and few years later
branched out for himself in the same bust
ness. His success In commercial life was
phenomenal He operated largely in
wheat, and In a few years had amassed q
fortune Of $3.50, 900, which, by the way, it
Is said, he has since then almost doubled
He was successfully elected director, vice
president and president of the Merchants
Exchange of St. Louis
1t was not until he had reached high
position In the commercial world and had
become millionaire that Mr.. Francis
turned his attention to politics. He was
first elected as delegate to the Democratic
convention of 1884 which nominated Gro
yer Cleveland. The next spring he was
elected mayor of St Louis, which Office he
filed for three years AS mayor he was
noted for his vetoes of franchise bills and
fol- his generally vigorous policy, 1t was
while he was still mayor that he was elect
ed governor. During his term Of office he
entertained lavishly, and Jefferson City en-
joyed the gayest social seasons which it
had ever known At the time he was the
youngest governor in the country.
Ever since 1884 Mr.. Francis has been
strong personal friend of President Cleve-
land. During the latters first term Mr..
Francis was mentioned as probable cabi-
net member, but he was not chosen be-
cause of political complications, When
President Cleveland came TO make up his
second cabinet, the name of Mr. Francis
was again on the list When Mr.. Bissell
resigned, 1t was thought that Francis
would succeed him, but the time for him
to enter the cabinet did not come until
