spirit Of tho new industrial age has do
sccnded upon them, and they are no longer
content TO sit down amid the ruins of the
past and dream over the things that might

The expansion Of trade and commerce
IN many southern cities has been note
worthy during the last few years. The st.
Louis papers say that TINT city has felt the
present Industrial depression less than
many northern cities. New Orleans Is
building up q great commerce and has

Tho Senator was RIGHT.

Senator Stewart was right when he said
In q debate in congress go yearsago: az do
not care how much you discussit or how
many resolutions you pass; they do not
make any difference. You must come to
the eame conclusion that all other people
hnye-that gold is recognized as the uni
versal standard of value. It Is the measure
that must DO used. It Is the measure by
which wealth must be tested, and whether
1t be pennies or millions matters not; 1t Is
the measure that must test all wealth.
It isycry evident, too, that the Amer.
loan voters agree with him. They have
preferred to believe what he said in 1874
rather than what he has said in 1896.
