Pope Leo XIII, who is now more than 85 years, and in feeble health, is reported to have recently queried, who will preside in the next consistory In the course of nature the Roman pontiff cannot long survive, and the question of his succession becomes of more pressing interest as the inev- itable end approaches. Much specula- tion has been indulged as to the pos sible election to the pontifical throne of an American or other cardinal for eign to Italy. There is, however, not the slightest Likelihood that the next pope will be other than an Italian

 Denver Republican: Gold is still at premium in all the financial centers of the country and none of it is in general circulation anywhere in the United States, yet no panic has been caused by the premium and no catas- trophe is likely to occur on account of it. We would like to have some of the able goldites who have so often fright ened the American people by the TO- bust assertion that premium on gold would mean an overwhelming panic and general ruin Ito all our business in- terests explain why this dire phophecy, like all their others regarding the money questions, has gone so con- pleteiy amiss?

trade accounts for much of the embarras-
ment now attending our social system
our system of government guarantees 10
citizen any special advantages or protec-

Labor is the basis Of values. From this

This proposition of elementary truth can

Price is the nomination OF value as ap-

there is want Of a purchasable thing. and

is greater than the demand, then prices

cision Mr.. PeytOn. AS attorney for ]. r.

right 10 do under the law.

Is AZ bottom, whether money Is used In
II or not. an exchange OF commodities,
effected through the forms OF purchase
and sale for money and that money
is only q nominal and not a real factor
I'm 1t at all. The magical revolution
which steam and electricity have made
I'm the possibility OF moving buiks rapidly
and communicating intelligence instantly
has brought about the result Of bust
ness taking the form Of actual swaps
Of commodities by transfers Of credits.
and this has taken a great part Of the
strain off Of the money metals. Men
find that with the little use they now
have for actual money, the gold that
the world has will answer all OF the
demand for actual money, and, being
given their choice OF whether they will
use gold or silver when actual money
must be used. they, Of course, use gold,
because IT IS so much easier to handle IL.
We presented this idea yesterday. but it
Is the flea wherein lies all the mystery
Of the case. and we feel that we cannot
present It too often.

Democrats have contcnded with as that
there was nothing OF an anarchical ma
lure in the Chicago platform, and that
the provision IA regard TO Government
by injunction was entirely Democratic
in It's nature. Indeed, the New York
journal. which Processes to he a Demo
cratic paper says Of that provision:
"The condemnation of the practice Of
substituting government by injunction
Tor the Old, orderly processes OF courts
and Juries. 50 far from being revolution
airy. IS a VindicauOn of the ancient
rights OF the English-speaking race
against a novel ana dangerous innovation
which deserves the name of anarchy much
better than anything done at Chicago
To Judge Of the case properly we must
see exactly what the platform does say.
The provision on this subject is as fol-
lows:
I'VE denouncc arbitrary interference by
Federal authorities I'm local affairs as "a
violation OF the Constitution OF the
United States. and a crime against free
Institutions. and We especially rObJcct
10 government by Injunction as a new
ana highly dangerous form or opprcs-
sion. by which the Federal judges IN
contempt Of the laws OF the State and
rights of citizens, become al once legisla-
tors, Judges. and cXccutionors."
Now, no sensible man sticks in the
bark. All such look at the substance
o. things. When We do this, the first
TACT We are confronted with Is the UNI

serted In the platform AT the instance
OF Altgeld. We are confronted with the
further undoubted fact that The Chicago

tion yielded TO Alleged. and what 1t said

were present of the committee were

sentee was Mr.. I.awder. who was confined
10 his home By sickness. Mr.. James

was present by special invitation, and
the others I'm the party were Superin-
tendent Charles T.. Boiling and his as
sistant Mr. r. +. Davis, Mr. A. De
laney. superintendent OF the pump-houses,
and Sergeant-at-Arms G.. c. Ruskell.
4 four-horse bus had been provided
TO carry the members Of the committee
10 the various places. and Mr.. Charles f.
Boiling held the ribbons I'm a mastery
manner. which would have done honor
even 10 the most experienced members
of the New York Coaching Club. The
party first started through Hollywood 70
the old pump house. where fully hair an
hour was spent IN examining the de-
fects IN the machinery, which were point
ed out by Messrs Boiling and Delaney.
The committee became convinced that
pcrts were not only timely. but extremely
necessary, and some decisive steps in that
direction Will be- taken az the next regu-
lar meeting After the inspection OF
the machinery had been completed the
members of the committee and the resi-
OF the party were invited TO one OF the
upper rooms of the building as the guests
of Mr. Boiling, where substantial lunch
awaited them. which was disposed OF with
customary appreciation.
From the old mphouse they drove
TO the Marshall Reservoir where they
were received by Mrs. Charles Baker. who
has just been reappOinted keeper OF the
reservoir. The grounds were found 10
be in perfect order. and Mrs. Baker
showed her appreciation Of the considera-
ton OF the committee by inviting the
visitors 70 her dining-room, where an
kinds OF fruits. cakes, and fce-crean
were set before them.
The New Reservoir was next visited
and after a drive around the enhancement
tho tour OF inspection was continued TO
the new pump-hOuse The repairs or.
dered 70 the water-power pumps had been
partly completed and everything proved
to be entirely satisfactory. The steam
pump has been thoroughly overhauled and
placed in perfect order. The only thing
that IS now needed is four new smoke
stacks for the steam pumps. for which
Mr.. Boiling will ask TT the next meeting.
and 1t Is his intention 10 have the same
raised about six feet higher than the
present ones
Mr.. Boiling also pointed out the spot
where. in his opinion. a storage reservoir
should be located for the settlement OF
the water before IL Is pumped in the New
Reservoir for distribution through the
various water mains. He advocates that
the same should be large enough 10 hold
water supply for at least twenty-three
days. so that the city would hereafter
always be supplied with clear water. This
could be done. he thinks, at an outlay
OF about $3.50, 200.
