Editor Virginian:
The United States is h producing and
not a banking nation. Therefore a gold
basis is unnatural and needs a wetnurse
IN the shape of what Mr.. Cleveland calls
the endless chain"
You cannot possibly maintain a gold
basis In this country without continually
Issuing gold bonds.
The people who can profit by the Issue
of these bonds are fighting hard to con-
tinue the gold basis. All others are op.
posing 1t, except those who are under
the power or influence OF the gold bond
handlers. who have stacked the cards and
are gleefully playing a game Of "heads, I
win: tails. you lose" The masses are
beginning to inquire into this llttl game.
and propose to call halt on Its opera
tions.
Can they succeed? They are fighting
money and brains and prestige, which
together make very powerful comblna-
tton. Too powerful, perhaps, for fhe
masses who have learned to follow their
leaders heretofore, but must now hew
out new path, because they can no
longer trust the old leaders.
Is 1t not singular spectacle to see

party and the bravest followers leav-

Eject of Two Tarl6s.

1t was asserted by republican cam.
paign speakers and managers that
the resent, or Wilson, tariff law is q
free trade law, and that the loss in
revenue is due to its free trade fea-
lures. The figures of the revenue
derived under the Mckinley law and
the Wilson law are as follows:
lS94-Mckinley imports, 1856. 714.-
420.25; duty paid, $l2S,SS1, 1858.
equal to 20. rs per cent.
1S95-Wilson imports, 1871, 1922
900; duty paid. el47,901, 2ls, equal
to 20.23 per cent.
1S96-Wilson imports. $3.50, 694,-
o64; duty paid. sl56.1O4,59s. or p
per cent.
1t seems that the duty paid on i'm
ports has increased under the Wilson
law to 81 per cent.
The revenue under the Wilson bill
has increased from $l2S, OOO, 900 to
STAT 200, 900, and in 1896 to $780,.
100000. The increase in the first
year was more than $19. 900. 900. and
IN the second year $28, 000O. 600.
The increase in the first fiscal year
under the Wilson tariff, was Is per
cent over the Mckinley tariff, but it
increased in the second year to 20
per cent as compared with the Nc
kinley tariff. The Dingley bill calls
for Is per cent increase on the pres.
ent system.

1T is many years since the grea,

years. A territory in central and

Of Europe and peopled by not less
than 10000, 900, is famine-stricken.
Already there are narrowing accounts

ment Of India is RENTING taxes, or

destitute, but is doubted that all
these efforts will avail to prevent an
appalling increase in the death rate

~Chinesc Cheap Labor. In America.


OF late years there has been a con-
5tont cry against Chinese cheap Ia
cor." Whatever may have been the
price put upon Chinese labor when the
great railways Ct the west were built by
these people. today it is evident to al!
who have studied the question that
there is no such thing as "Chinese
cheap labor. Chinese laundries charge
higher rates than domestic laundries.
Chinese laundrymen command higher
prices than laundresses Of other nation
alities. A Chinaman earns ordinarily
from IS to $40 a week and his board
and lodging. The white or colored laun-
dress makes from 81 to $40 a week
without board or lodging. The China
man works from O'Clock in the morn
ing until l or 2 O'Clock at night. Some.
times he washes, sometimes he starches,
sometimes he irons, but he is always at
it, not tireless, but persevering in spite
of WEAKNESS and exhaustion. Other Ia
borers clamor for q working day Of
eight hours. The Chinaman patiently
works IL, takes care of his relatives in
China, looks after his own poor in
America and pays his bills as he goes
along.
In the Chinese store $40 per week is
the lowest sum paid for q man Of all
work In Chinese restaurant the low
est wage paid to kitchen boy is $25
per month and board. Chinese cooks
will not go to American families fol-
less than $40 per month, and they rare.
ly ever stay for that sum. This, then.
is Chinese cheap labor-a cheap labor
Of which ordinary people cannot avail
themselves.-''The Chinese of New
York., by Helen F. Clark, in Century.
