According to one of the foreign cor respondents in Contsantinople. the financial condition of the Porte is not so desperate as it is generally supposed to be. The report of the committee ap- pointed to prepare a working budget for the ensuing financial year asserts that the deficit will only amount to about one million pounds Turkish, and that a good deal of this may be saved by reduction of expenditures. On the other hand, the report says nothing about the enormous arrears of pay due to the army and government officials everywhere, and it is further noted that Djelal-ed-din Pasha, the president of the committee, is noted for his skill in

Said Judge Caldwell of the United States Circuit court, at St. Paul: would order an investigation of com plaint that an employe of the court had been discharged for political reasons, and if the complaint upon investigation appeared to be well founded I would at once order the dismissal of every re- ceiver, general manager or other off, cer or employe of the court having any, thing to do with discharging or threat ening to discharge employees for politi- cal reasons. And it would be suffi- cient ground for removing the receiver or general manager if they had reason to believe that such unlawful coercion was being practiced or threatened by any of their subordinate officers or en- ployes and took no step to investigate or suppress it.

This campaign is bringing out the political veterans. Among them is the Hon. George W. Julian of Indiana. Recently he went from his home at IT. vington to address the Citizens Sound Money league at Indianapolis He dis cussed not only the financial issue, but every menace of the Chicago platform, with great clearness, force and earn estness. MT. Julian is one of the his- toric figures of the Republican party, and one of the very few surviving leaders of the abilition movement. In 1852 he was the free soil candidate for president, and afterwards took a prom inent part in the organization of the Republican party, acting as vice presi- dent and chairman of the organization committee of the Pittsburg convention in 1856. He was elected to congress in 1860 and served continuously until 1872, when he joined the liberal Republi- cans. Since then he has been a Dem- ocrat, but the Chicago convention has driven him back to his old allegiance.

DENVER, July 81. N. Stevens,
who will have charge of the campaign
of the Silver party, with headquarters
at Washington, D. c., returned to
Denver today. Mr.. Stevens declined,
for professional reasons, to accept the
craftsmanship, but was made vice
chairman with the understanding that
he would attend to the active work.
I'VE will conduct a vigorous cam
paign from the word 60 " said Mr..
Stevens. Speakers will be sent out
and silver literature distributed every
where. We will have the finest ora
tors in the country, and as rule they
will be men who formerly allied them
selves with the Republican party We
purpose to swamp New York and the
New England states with speakers.
The gold men will find they will have
business enough to attend to at home.

he continued, but we can meet money
with organization. The committees of
the Silver party and the Democracy
will work in perfect harmony"

E1norENCE AND cow.

In the debate in congress over the
FILLED Cheese Bill" Representative
Dolliver of Iowa ended speech in
favor of the measure as follows:
81 say, give the American cow fair
chance She has been the faithful ser
want of man. She landed with our an
cestors at Plymouth Rock, and, tied be-
hind the old weather-beaten emigrant
wagon. she has marched, with the
household goods of the pioneers who
have taken possession of this country,
from ocean to ocean. She has in
creased and multiplied and replenished
the earth, until today, the industries
which she has made possible, contrib
ute annually to the wealth of the world
more money than the great comhina-
lions of modern capital-more than iron
and steel more than lumber and coal,
more than cotton and wheat, more
than all the mysterious riches OF gold
and silver. Yet there are men in this
house whom 1 have heard today sheer
ing at this bill, who spend most of
their time trying to get protection for
some insignificant local enterprise, or
talking through their hats in the sill
yer debate. 1 say, give the American
cow fair chance.
For myself, 1 am in favor, Mr.
Brumm, of her monopoly-a monopoly
that God gave her-in the production of
butter and cheese. That is one rnonopo-
ly that 1 am II. favor of. And if every
man in this house, who in the days of
his boyhood, got up at daylight to
feed the cows, and stayed up after
dark in order to milk them; if every
man who has churned actual cream
with reliable upright churn. and has
watched with boys enthusiasm, the
old-fashioned process of making cheese
in the days of its honor and repute.
will stand by this bill, we will drive
from the American barnyard the horde
of counterfeiters and cheats at common
law, and keep them out till the cows
come home"
Mr.. Dolliver makes ore little mistake.

Rock with the Pilgrims. The frst of
their cattle came two years after the
Mayf1ower landed. = Rural New

for temporary headquarters. These
headquarters will be maintained until
the Democratic national committee
headquarters are permanently estao-
lished. The silver headquarters will be

"PERNICIOUS ACTIVITY. ="
CLEVELAND'S FAMOUS ORDER OF
1856 RECALLED.
POstma ster-GeneraI Wilson Calls
the Attention of the Postal EN-
pIoyees to a Few Facts.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-Postmaster-
General Wilson has issued an order to
the railway mail clerks directing them
not to take active interest in the polit-
ical campaign, such as would be in
volved in attending political conven-
tons as delegates or making political
speeches. The postmaster-gener
circular expressly states than he does
not desire TO control their opinion on
political matters.
The order, which is in line with the
famous ''pernicious activity" order of
President Cleveland in 1886, was issued
today by General superintendent White
Of the railway mail service, by direc-
ton OF the postmaster general 1t is
as follows:
THE attention of all railway postal
clerks, regardless of the character of
the duty to which they may be assign
ed, is directed to section 435, page 1872
OF the postal laws and regulations of
1899.
The department does not attempt or
desire to control the political opinions
Of any one connected with the postal
service, but insists that EMPLOYEES of
the railway mail service shall not take
an active interest in politics in the way
of attending conventions as delegates
making political speeches or assisting
in the management of political cam
paigns. These employees should recog-
nize the fact that Sheir tenure of Office
depends upon themselves; if they con-
form to these requirements and are
efficient, honest, courteous to the pub
lie, to their officers and comrades. and
abstain from unseemly and indecent
language in discussing candidates or
parties, they may reasonably expect TO
remain in the service. All this will not
interfere with their voting according to
the dictates of their own conscience
or of expressing their opinions in an
intelligent and courteous way. More
than this, however, it is detrimental to
the best interests of the service and is
in violation of the section of the postal
laws and regulations referred to above
and also of the order of the president
issued July T. 1896, which is still in force
and was made a part of the postal laws
and regulations subsequently and re-
promulgated by the postmaster general.
May 20, 1884,
The formal order was brought out
by complaints against some of the
clerks The postmaster general will is

TO all classes of employees in the en-
tire postal service later on It svin not
be done, however, unless complaint is
made

The Boy. Make a Call.

CANTON, O.. July 29.-Today COM
mittee from the University of Chicago
arrived in this city to call on Major
Mckinley. They came as the repre-
sentatives of the Republican clubs Of
that school to pay their respects to
the Republican candidate and to pre-
sent to him life-sized marble bust of
himself The bust was made by Hans
Hirsch, the noted sculptor of that city.
The bust is finished in American par
ian marble, mounted on mahogany
plaque. 1t was intended to send the
bust here by the Republican club of
the Chicago university, but it was
found impracticable and a committee
was chosen to bring the bust to Can
ton. The committee was composed of
H. L. Ickss, president of the club; G.
W. Alison managing editor of the
University Weekly, and WILDER M.
Kelso, alumni and lawyer. Mr.. Ickes,
in making the presentation. said:
I'VE come as the representatives of
the host of young Republicans who
are enrolled in our colleges today. We
come because We are patriotic, because
the modern college man takes an es-
pecial interest in all that pertains to
the welfare of his country"
he then, on behalf of the Republican
club of the University of Chicago,
presented to Major Mckinley the
masterpiece of the artist, Hans Hirsch
of Chicago.
In response, Major Mckinley said:
Mr.. Ickes and Gentlemen: 1t gives
me very great pleasure to meet the
committee from the Republican club
of the University of Chicago. and cam
not forbear to say that if the Republi-
can party is TO continue its progress
of power and usefulness il must be
done through the conscience and in
telligence of the people 1t is. indeed.
a good omen to find the young gentle
men of the many colleges of the Uni
TED States joining themselves in Re
publican organizations TO sustain Re-
publican principles and the national
honor; and there is no class of men
more potent than those who go out
of the colleges TO every county and
state of the Union. They WELD a
mighty power, and it is fortunate for
the country that so many of them are
enlisted this year for the principles
of good government, for which our
party stands. / am glad to know that
the Republican principles are such
that they can be submitted with safety
and confidence to the intelligence Of
the educated men of the country. l
am pleased. of course, with this bust
which you have been pleased to bring
me, and 1 accept it in the spirit in
which it has been presented to me-
] beg that you convey to the artist
and members of the Republican club
of the University of Chicago my sim
cere thanks for this remembrance"
