The Silver Push for Teller.

The Yankton Press and Dakotan, one
of the organs of Populism in South Da-
kota, and presumably close to Senator
Pettigrew, gives support to the story re-
Gently sent out by the Associated Press
from Denver that the silver forces are
planning to substitute Senator Teller for
William Jennings Bryan in the campaign
of 1900. Naturally the Yankton organ
discredits the suggestion of a conspiracy
against Mr.. Bryan, and assumes that he
will be one of the first to refuse a nomi-
nation if he believes a stronger man can
be named" The Press and Dakotan does
not deal with the presumption that it
would be possible to convince Mr.. Bryan
that stronger man could be named. The
possibility of such a contingency did not
occur to him at the time of the meeting
Of the Chicago convention last year, nor
Immediately prior to the assembling of
that convention. There is no evidence
that the Nebraskan has come to think less
of himself since that time. Indeed, the
presumption is warranted that Mr.. Bryan
deems the preservation of his own life
and leadership essential to the cause of
"bimetallism." The Yankton paper, how
ever, proceeds to say:
1t is well known that Senator Henry NJ.
Teller, Of Colorado. has been for many years
prominent In the public mind as a suitable
man FOR President, and without disparaging
In the slightest the qualifications OF Mr..
Bryan, 1t can be honestly claimed that no
statesman of the present day In the United
states possesses to a greater extent the con-
hdence and esteem OF the American people
than Mr.. Teller. He possesses the advantage
OF quarter Of a century or more of expert
ence In public position. an experience that
mas admirably equipped him TO discharge
the duties devolving upon the chief magis-
trate OF this republic; and we have no doubt
that IL Mr.. Bryan's sentiments could be
known he would be found quite favorable to
the candidacy OF the Colorado gentleman.
There Is growing conviction that with Mr..
Teller as the candidate. success would be
assured, and this conviction has come about
because Of no loss of confidence In Mr.. Bry-
an or lessening of the esteem In which he Is
held by those who supported him In the last
campaign

Good Crops, Good Times.

The movement of the crops, which now
begins, will proceed in increasing volume
until the autumn. The wheat harvest
begins in Texas and rolls northward like
a wave until it ends tin the United States)
in Minnesota and North Dakota. 1t is
followed by the corn harvest and inter
spersed by the gathering of numerous 9TH
er crops, all representing vast wealth
which must sooner or later materialize in
money. With plenty of money in the East
to move the crops, and with plenty of crops
in the West to move, it would seem that
an interchange of the commodities of
money end crops must soon set in which
will tend to eQualize conditions by reliev
ing the plethora Of money in the East
and distributing it through the sections
where it is so badly needed. This inter-
change is what makes business-commer-
cial life-prosperity-and if it isn't COM
ing, then it will be case wherein all
signs fail.--Minneapolis Tribune.

ArrayIne Glass Against Glass.

The Des Moines fusion convention plat
form and speeches make it evident that
SO far as the Democratic leaders are con-
cerned the purpose is to excite passion and
prejudice and to array voters of different
occupations against each other for po-
litical effect. The keynote of the speech
of Candidate White, the platform and the
temper of the convention, make it appar-
ent that the campaign is to be marked by
an attempt to array one part of the citi-
zens against the other on the equitable
distribution of property" basis. The con-
vention made an exhibition Of dema-
gogism in its declaration of policy
against those who have, by industry and
economy, built up the large interests of
the State, and contributed to the pros
perity OF the whole people.
1t is one of the dangerous signs of the
times that hostility to property and men
who own property, is so marked in great
party, and that expressions hostile to the
prosperous element in the State were
applauded. 1t is a sad thing to contem-
plate. If it is sincere we have fallen up
on evil days. If il is a sham Democratic
leaders must wear the mark of the dema-
gogue. Such an exhibition should startle
every good citizen into activity against
this covert socialism. The mission of good
citizenship should be to allay strife and
animosity, rather than to arouse t.

BOLT OF BOIES.
Iowau Keeps Getting Further Away
from Chicago Platform.

Ex-Gov. Boes has made public another
statement answering the attack recently
made on his position. His statement
takes him entirely away from the 16 to /
doctrine. Among other things he says:
Let Congress provide that any person hav-
ing gold or silver bullion OF the value of SO
or multiples thereof may deposit the same
In the treasury and receive therefor United
States or treasury notes for the value there
of on the day OF deposit, such value ex-
pressed In dollars TO be determined by the
quoted market price Of the bullion offered
In the great centers of trade In the old
world on the day Of deposit, and be redeem
able on demand In bullion of either metal
at the option Of the Government at its mar
ket price In the same markets on the day Of
redemption, the notes mot the bullion they
represenD to be made unlimited legal ten
der.
In reply to the objection raised by Col.
Fox that Boies' plan meant virtually a
gold standard, the Ex-Governor says that
in a narrow sense it may be so claimed,
but i'm a broad and practical sense it
would result in true bimetallism, not only
in law, but in fact as felt. Then he says:
The Chicago platform is no longer binding
upon the conscience, political or otherwise,
of any Democrat In the United States. The
Issues made up by that instrument have
been submitted to the only tribunal author
lied to pass upon them, and they have been
found against. On those issues we have had
our day I'm court and we are beaten.

Mckinley on Labor Unions.

The recent declaration of President Nc
Kinley with reference to labor unions in
an interview with Mr.. Gompers, president
of the American Federation of Labor,
voiced the sentiments of all fair-minded
men on this subject that has occasioned so
much bitter controversy among students
of sociological and industrial problems.
The anti-pooing bill to restrain the OPP
Grafton of pools and trusts has caused
the leaders of organized labor some appre-
hension. Mr.. Gompers was afraid that
the labor unions might be classed as trusts
and that the penalties of the act might be
construed as applying to them rather than
to the large combinations usually known
as trusts. Their apprehensions were re-
lieved. however, by the President, who
said: II regard the organization of labor
as the natural and legitimate effort to Sc
cure it's rights"
No fair-minded person will dissent from
the views Of the President upon this
question. The encouragement of light
mate trades unionism is praiseworthy, be-
cause the fundamental idea of the or
CARNATIONS, if properly carried out, must
exalt and dignity labor. The principles
of trades unionism honestly and faithfully
applied are certainly calculated to i'm
prove the moral, social and physical con-
dition of the laborers. Through coop
erative combinations they are enabled to
lift up the oppressed, to succor the des-
titute and to aid the unfortunate. BY
compact organizations for the advance
ment of mutual interests they are en-
abled through the peaceful agencies of
arbitration to adjust differences between

best market possible for the labor they
have to sell.
When the trades unions depart from
these legitimate and honorable functions
they imperil the highest interests of hon
est labor and invite discord, confusion
and disaster. The leaders Of the trades
unions should dedicate all their energies
and powers to the social, moral and edu-
cational advancement of labor and should
shun the political agitator as they would
shun q pestilence

Activity in Business. center..

Attention is called to the fact that sell
dom, even in periods of the greatest bust
ness activity, have the loans of the New
York City banks scored as large n gain
as the one reported for the week just
closed. They made an increase of SILL
100000. For several weeks past their
loans have been increasing, but the expan-
sion just made was the largest known
in any six days in a long time. This in
creased demand for money is significant.
1t means that 81, 100000 more Of money
went into various enterprises from the
New York City banks alone, the past
week than the week before, to pay labor
and to quicken all the channels of trade
and business. The increase in loans is
not confined to the banks of New York
City. 1t is noted in proportionate meas
ure in all the cities of the country. The
effects of the vast additions to the ac-
tual money circulation passing through
the hands of the people are also being felt
everywhere, not in boom, but in slow
ly and steadily rising tide of better times.

Foreign Demand for Our Crops.

The preliminary data, however, sug-
gest the probability of a considerable re-
duction in the yield of Russia, Bulgaria.
Roumania and France, and the English
crop is likely to be smaller than that Of
last year. French production is now esti-
mated ut 2S0,000,000 bushels, or about
60,O0O0O0 bushels less than would be re-
quired to make France independent of
imports. With a crop no larger than
the one now foreshadowed France in
1884 was obliged to import 56,000,0O0
bushels, and may be an importer to that
extent dming the coming year. Owing
to the drought in New South Wales and
South Australia it is expected that large
shipments of California wheat will be
made to Australia. The prospect of larg-
er foreign requirements, smaller supplies
from Russia, and the fact that little can
be expected from India or Argentina until
1898, have induced foreign buyers to turn
early attention to the United States; and
already considerable wheat has been sold
for shipment during August and Septem-
Der. In this country the indications of
the wheat yield have improved, and the
crop is expected to be larger than that
of any year since 1892. The unofficial
estimates point to a production of $780,
100000 bushels or more.

Bryan,s Trouble.

worst dreams come when he is awake

Mr.. Bryan's nightshirt couples too much
space in the newspapers. He has a per-
feet right, as has every man, to wear
what he can afford. The trouble with Mr..
Bryan is, he wants to pay for his silk
nightshirts in 50-cent dollars.-Dubuque

The antitrust proposition has been
omitted from the tariff bill in order to
save the time which would be occupied
in its discussion, and the proposition will
be pressed by the Republicans in the
Senate as a separate measure.
The people v no hoped to bring about an
issue between the Republicans and the
sound money Democrats upon the tariff
question find that they have not been sue
cessful. The gold Democrats are Mt work
to defeat the silver wing Of the Democ-
racy wherever it is making campaign
this fall.
Tom Watson has a poor opinion OF
party which serves another party for
consideration" In a recent issue of his
paper he remarks: Our own belief is that
no gentleman will remain in the Peoples
party if the idea once gets abroad that
Populsm and Hessianism are synonym

"For one, do not believe it possible
to succeed upon platform that demands
the unqualified free coinage of silver at
the ratio of 16 to with gold. We have
fought that battle and it is lost. We can
never fight it over under circumstances
more favorable to ourselves. Ii we hope
to succeed we must abandon this ex-
IRENE demand."-Ex-Gov Horace Boies
of Iowa.
The administration is still developing
plans in favor of a general monetary re-
form, and whether they are presented to
Congress at the special session or per-
mitted to go over to the regular session,
there is an official assurance that a meas
ure for a currency reform which will OBJ
viate former currency troubles will be pre-
scented and doubtless be made a law, IL
the united support of the Republicans is
sufficient to carry 1t through the Senate.

Business Prospects Bright.

There has been steady advance to-
ward a more prosperous business situa-
ton, and the sentiment has decidedly i'm
proved. The fact that the Senate is at
work at last on the tariff bill and that
much is being accomplished daily in the
consideration of the measure has had a
good deal to do with the general restora-
ton of confidence which extends from one
end of the country to the other. So far
results are not marked in the ordinary
trade reports. There is falling off in
commercial failures which may be taken
as one Of the early indications of better
commercial situation. Bank clearings,
which at best are an unsatisfactory guide,
show business to be a little below the
level of last year for the month of May
and for the week.-Philadelphia Press
CRep).

Signs multiply that the schism in the
party which marched under the name Of
Democracy until the revolutionists tri-
umphed in 1896 is growing wider and
deeper. The average Popocrat hates the
Democrat more heartily than he hates
the Republican. The average Democrat
sees far more to condemn in the Chicago
platform than in the st. Louis platform.
Ii this bitterness has grown to its present
proportions in seven months, who can
measure the magnitude 1t will attain by
1900? SO sturdy of heart are the sound
money Democrats that they are seriously
discussing ''the passing Of Bryan"

1t Was Good Enough for Grant.

Referring to the criticism of the
amendment of the Finance Committee i'm
posing duty of 10 cents per pound on
tea, that it is not good Republican doc
trine," said Harry Smith, ex-Journal
clerk of the National House of Represent
atives, lit is proper to call attention to the
fact that duty on tea and coffee was
recommended by President Grant in his
annual message to Congress of Dec. Z,
1870 first session, Forty-fourth Con-
gress). Referring to the serious condi-
ton of the treasury, he said:
"'One measure for increasing the reve-
nue-and the only one think offs the
restoration of the duty on tea and coffee.
These duties would add probably SIS, Co.,
600 to the present amount received from
imports, and would in no way increase
the price paid for those articles by the
consumers"

GROSS iMPeRTlNENcE.


The Washington correspondent of the
Troy Times justly holds that 1t is piece
of gross impertinence for foreign coun-
tries to filc protests" against the pas
sage of general tariff act by the United
States, and he calls attention to the fact
that no instance is on record where our
Government has been guilty of similar ac-
ton. Nations like France, Germany,
Austria Hungary and Spain, which are
now protesting against the enactment of
the Dincley bill, and which maintain the
protective system themselves, have in
creased their tariff rates from time 10
time, but on no occasion have we entered
a remonstrance of general character.
There have been cases in which we have
directed the attention of foreign Govern
ments to certain laws or regulations which
bore unfairly upon some one industry in
the United States, or which Disseminated
against productions Of this republic as
compared with those of other countries.
but in no instance have we protested
against "A general tariff measure proposed
by other nations, so long as it treated all
countries alike. We have been entirely
consistent in according to these nations
the same right to encourage native indus
try that we claimed for ourselves.
1t is interesting to note how the ac-
count stands between the United States
and some of the countries which, officially
or otherwise, have protested against the
pending tariff bill. Prominent among the
latter are Germany, France, Brazil, Aus
ria-Hungary, Japan. Mexico, Spain.
China, Switzerland and Turkey, and dur
ing the decade of 1SS6-96 we bought of
these countries goods to the following
amounts in excess of the goods they
bought of us: Germany, $4,000, 900;
France, $101, 100000; Brazil, $613,0O0,-
0O0--our own imports having been $134,-
100000, against exports of $121 COCOON
Austria Hungary, $74,000,000; Japan,
$166, ,000-imports to the value Of
$213,000 GOO, against exports to the value
of $45.00O,000; Mexico, $4,000, 600;
Spain, including colonies, $463, OOO, 900;
China, $135, 100000; Switzerland, $13S,-
00000-imports aggregating $139,OOO,-
600, against exports aggregating less than
$500, 000-.apd Turkey, $45,OOO,OOO.
These countries may indulge in loud PRO
tests" as some of them have done before,
but it is not probable that they will pro-
coed further. They will certainly hest
tate before they adopt any drastic action
which might provoke retaliation on the
part of the United States.

Mid.um mer Dizziness Po.tpon.d.

Midsummer dullness should now be on
the business of the country, but, on the
contrary, the outlook is steadily improv-
ing as the tariff skies brighten in Wash
ington. Bank clearings for the past week
aggregated s., 066, 0OO, 900, an increase Of
about per cent over the week before.
Higher quotations are reported for fin
ished IRON, pig tin, copper, lead, pork,
lard and cotton. Bank clearings for the
month CT June are a cheering indication
Of the speedy advent of general prosper
ity. They represent an increase of 6.S
