this may be mentioned that the great
firm of Libby. Mcneil & Libby are pny-
ing their army of employees their month
ly wages in gold coin. and that the

NATIONAL HONOR PRESERVED
A Splendid Victory for Sound Money and
Honesty.


1--WE have met the enemy and they are
ours!" The enemies of good govern
ment, good money and national honor
have gone down under the feet of us
grand and determined IN army OF
American patriots as ever exercised the
privileges of freemen! Mckinley Is
elected and all that his name stands for
Is assured to the people! Reputation,
through debased money, the debauchery
of our federal judiciary, and the attempt
to bring dishonor upon the nation and
its flag have been sternly and over
whelmingly condemned.
John P. Altgeld, the most dangerous
man that ever rose above the political
surface in this country, has been de-
fcated and with him goes down the
worst and most mischievous gang of
politicians that ever vegetated on the
soil of Illinois.
In clarifying over the result it must
not be forgotten that the thousands of
patriotic democrats who placed coun-
try above party, voted for Mckinley,
and made the victory more overwhelm-
ing and decisive.
The result is one over which the ma
ton, as a man, should rejoice. 1t is n
blessing as well to those who resisted
as to those who assisted it. 1t means
the utter destruction and humiliation
of the popocratic party as formed and
defended by the Altgelds, Tillmans and
Tellers--a party that combined the an
tagonistics elements of debased democ-
racy, crazy populism, mischievous So
cialism and lawless anarchism. 1t
means the practical elimination of these
men and their dangerous heresies from
American politics. 1t means vindica-
ton of the democrats who adhered to
their ancient faith in "sound money!"
and to the country at large it means
restoration of confidence, the early
application of republican principles to
our public affairs. and, through that
agency, a return of the universal thrift
and prosperity so ruthlessly stricken
down and destroyed by the blunders
and un-American policies of the defeat
ed party.-Chicago Sun.

THE HONEST MONEY AVALANCHE
An Uprising of tho Intelligence and
Patriotism OF tho People.

An Uprising of tho Intelligence and
Patriotism OF tho People.
The expected has happened, with
difference that 1t was q little nearer
unanimity than was looked for. Nc
Kinley carried every state east of the
Mississippi river and north of the old
slavery line. and Delaware Maryland,
West Virginia. Kentucky and Tennessee
south of that boundary. West of the
Mississippi he carried Minnesota, Iowa,
Nebraska, North and South Dakota and
some of the Pacific coast states. In
many states-as New York, Pennsyl-
vania and Massachusetts-the plurali-
ties went up to figures never touched
before.
Strictly speaking, this is not a re-
publican victory. 1t is larger, broader,
grander than this. The republican par
tvs gallant allies of the Cleveland, Car
Isle and Palmer element of the democ-
racy contributed to this result, and
share in the glory OF 1t. 1t was q
mighty uprising of the intelligence, the
virtue and the patriotism of the nation.
In no election in the entire history of
tho country was so much involved that
was vital to the honor and interests of
the people, and the people rose grandly
to the occasion.
Thus the political and business sky
has instantly cleared. The banded fol-
lies and villainies which men call Bry-
anism are swept away in the wave of
the popularwrath. The boarded millions
of gold which fled at the fear of organs
election will come out of its hiding place
and reenter trade channels. Defeat to
the regulators and destructionists has
come in such crushing shape that they
dare never raise their hand against the
nations interests and honor again. Re-
publican institutions have once more
indicated themselves against the at
tacks of domestic traitors and the
sneers and jeers of foreign foes. To-
day in every land under the sun in
which an American sojourns his pride
of citizenship will be revived and
strengthened. To-day in every ex-
