not alone along the lines advocated by
the peoples party but in other moral
issues to which as a party it has not
been committed, such for example as
the crusade against the low age Of con-
sent laws existing in many, in fact
most, Of the States. 1t has also been
fearless in its criticism of existing
abuses in the church as well as in State

BRADsTREET has postponed the pros
perity wave for the year. Dun has
given up all talk of the unprecedented
revival Of trade etc, but has not be-
come so pessimistic as Bradstreet and
evidently wishes to postpone the cal
amity howl a little longer yet. Brad
street this week starts off with saying:
General trade continues in moderate
volume, jobbers and wholesalers being
agreed there will be no revival this
year." The statement Of failures dur
ing the week was as follows: Through
out the central Mississippi valley there
has been no increase in demand and
south trade is dull. Jobbers of dry
goods report that sales for future dellv-
cry have fallen off, Transactions in
wool have fallen off. Manufacturers
buying only as they receive orders.
The situation in metal is less satisfact-
DRY with unsettled rumors as tOthe sue
cess of the steel pool, comparatively few
sales OF staple grades and no likelihood
of revival in demand prior to February.
There are 359 business failures
reported throughout the United States
this week, which is an increase of So
as compared with last week; "A as
compared with the corresponding week
one year age; 81 as contrasted with
the like week in 1894, but falling off
of "a as compared with the number of
business failures in the first week Of
December, 1893. The increase as COM
pared with the like period in 1892 is a..
A large proportion of the increased
number of failures is reported from the
middle and New England States" In
his showing of exports in wheat and
corn the volume Of trade in that
particular is less than year ago
even. Wonder if those fellows who
talked so Justify about business revival
really did believe what they were say
ing or were they just trying to make
folks believe they did because they had
promised it.

SILVER AND COTTON.
Recent Movements In the Market Make
Certain Questions Pertinent.

Recent Movements In the Market Make
Certain Questions Pertinent.
The reports Of Fridays cotton mar
ket in New York were both interesting
and important.
The chief note was the recent rise in
price of bullion silver and the state
ment that it has had an almost instan-
taneous effect on the cotton market.
Just why this is so is partially explain
ed in Mcintyre & Wardwell's New
York cotton letter, which we reprint:
Silver has lately been rising quite rapidly,
and there is o big silver speculation In prog
ress in London based largely on the spread Of
free silver sentiment in this country. This
may put up silver quotations materially, and
this greatly stimulated Manchester's trade in
cotton goods with East India-in fact Liver
pool sales Of spot cotton In two days are $1,000
bales, fact which speaks volumes.
This may very well be supplemented
by the New York Suns cotton review:
For time this morning the situation looked
rather weak, partly owing to the decline In
Liverpool, where the work Of decimating the
weak bulls had not been quite finished, but
later on, when 1t was found that Manchester
had woke up, or at least owned up that 1t was
doing q good business, prices here rose rapid
ly. The Manchester revival Is attributed oil.
most solely to the recent rise in silver, which
naturally has stimulating effect on business
with the East Indies. The early decline here
was all recovered on tho double quick, the
market rising Q to II points from the lowest
figures Of the morning.
Now, here is testimony Of the most
unanswerable kind right out Of Wall
street-right from the headquarters Of
the money power in this country. More
over, the testimony seems to be gladly
impaired to the public. There is a
cheerfulness, an citation, in the tone Of
the reports which we quote that cannot
be mistaken. It is declared that even a
slight rise in the price of bullion silver
helps the cotton market by stimulating
Manchester's trade with the far east.
This is precisely what The Constitu-
ton has been declaring for years-that
the value of silver and the market price
Of cotton and wheat are linked together
and are inseparable. The question arises
here, and we invite the poor crushed
and defeated cuckoos to answer it; Il
the demand for silver in the east in,
creases the value Of that metal, why
will not the inexhaustible demand Of
the open United States mints restore the
value represented by the present ratio
Of 16 to 1?
One more question: If the slight risC
in the value Of silver, whether it b,
brought about by the eastern demand
or by the certainty that the Democrat
ic party will declare for free coinage
tends to advance the price Of cotton
why will not the rise Of silver to tn
mint ratio increase the price Of cottol
in proportion?
Another question in conclusion: !
the increase in the value Of silver +
the extent Of penny fails to distur
the gold value, why will the increas
in the value Of the metal to the exten
Of Is. Cd drive out the yellow metalI-

THE general idea among leading
pOpulists from the best information we
can get as to legislation for the refOr
matOry Is that it should have liberal
appropriations but that the three pc.
nal institutions. the State penetentiary
the reform school at Topeka and the
reformatOry should all be put under
one board. The same ideas seem to
prevail also that the charitable insti-
buttons should be placed under a board
reduced to three members instead of
five and that they should be given a
clerk with an Office in Topeka instead
of having their papers scattered over
all the institutions Of the State. Then
that the Blind ASYLUM and the school
for the deaf and dumb should be I'M
der still another, an educational board.
This would classify the institutions
according to the kind of work to bt
done by the board so as to reduce the
the number of boards and increase the
efficiency of service while diminishing
the expense.

SOME one has discovered that the
law allowing prisoners at the reforma-
tory in this city to be pardoned by the
board of pardOns makes no provisions
about restoring their rights as citizens
and giving them the right to vote,
Unless the new legislature cOrrects this
defect as It is termed there will prob,
ably be some challenges on this score at
the next election. 1t may be no great
loss to deprive them Of their vote but
if they are denied suffrage surely the
convicts pardoned from the State pen
ttentiarY should not be either.

THE next play in the game of politics
republicans have started on is the re-
tirement of the greenbaeks and dele
eating the whole function of issuing
paper money to the banks on even
more advantageous terms than now
Republicans generally prOfessed dur
ing the campaign to oppose this scheme,
They said it was lack of revenue, pro-
lection, etc. etc., and all that was
needed was to have those matters set
tied and the money would take care of
itself as it is. They perhaps see now
that che opposition will let them have
their tariff bill, etc., and must hunt up
another excuse for not bringing the
prosperity promised. They know the
silver men will never let them do this
piece Of meanness and they will then
lay continued hard times up to that
fact. This may be the way they see
things shaping.
