THE HERALD has held that the tariff
issue was paramount to the currency
question in that the revenues of the ma
ton are less than its expenditures-a
deficiency in governmental finances Great
ng unrest and distrust. To supply this
deficiency by creating or bofro wing
money, instead of collecting it, is as flu
tile and disastrous in public affairs as
it would be in private. When the reyen-
ues exceeded or equaled expenditures the
sufficiency and quality OF the circulat-
ing me dunn did not seriously occupy
public attention. Congress has recog-
nized the fact. and the house of repre-
sent atives has proceeded to horizontally
raise import duties by passing bill,
which if it shall become law will be of
double advantage-realize more money
and stimulate manufacture. There is
no reason why this nation shall Dor
row money Tor current expenses under
the guise Of issuing bonds to maintain
gold reserve. So long as the gold re-
serve is depleted by paying out redeemed
greenbacks for current expenses, so long
will the fiatists and free coiners have
substantial ground under them upon
which to stand in making an appeal to
the country for radical change in fnan-
cial methods. When the redeemed green
back shall not leave the treasury except
for that which did and will again re-
deem it, a depleted gold reserve will he

to meet expenses, the money question

THE KENTUCKY MUDDLE.

Blackburn says he was the caucus
nominee and he will stay until those
caucus Democrats vote for him. 1t
has been the fault OF five goldbugs
that Blackburn has been kept from
a reelection and they have done
everything in their power to defeat
him alter going into a caucus that
put him forward as the most
ovallable man.
When a caucus was called to
consult on the advisabilty of taking
Blackburn down 10 goldbugs held
aloof from the caucus and the
Blackburn Democrats resolved to
stay by him until the last and it
will be either a Republican elected,
and that by Democratic votes or
there will be no one elected at all.
This shows plainly how far a gold
bug Democrat carries his hatred to
a free silver candidate. There is
yet hope that the constituency OF
those goldbugs will rise up and in
struct these men to vote for Black
burn and end the dead lock.

"It is with pleasure | tell you
that by one days use of Chamber,

as soon as the cold has been con-
tracted it will cure the cold at once
and prevent it from extending to
the lungs.

He knows the host considers it nuis-

the sacrifice from both. and so 1t is
stand-off. But with Ash Wednesday all
the obligations are released and official
dinners are dropped.
