SINCE there is a loud demand from
republican papers for an explanation
of the divergence in the price Of wheat
and silver, we will attempt it. The
price Of wheat depends on three things.
Supply and demand, the amount and
kind of gambling done upon it and the
amount Of money in circulation. Silver
is much the same. The present rise in
wheat is due to short supply, the fall
in silver is mainly due to low demand
caused by characterization. What has
ever kept wheat and silver tOgeth'
has been the using Of American silver
for buying Indian wheat to speculate
in. Now there is no Indian wheat
This fact therefore lessons the demand
for silver and increases the demand for
wheat elswheIe. Of course the de-
mand for wheat is increased by short
age in nearly every other wheat pro-
ducing country.

end forces the men to work and brings
increase into the Golfers of the rich.
The time was when coal miner in
Pennsylvania received such pay as
would make him shortly independent
with proper economy. Now he works
for what will scarcely keep his bones
together. Three years ago the miners
received from sixty-Ave cents to seven
ty-fve cents per ton. When they
struck they received from ffty.One cents
to fifty-five cents. Coal has not been
cheapeued to the consumer. The dit
ference has gone to swell the amount
of stocks and bonds the mines pay in
terest on. The increase of casI. is not
allowed to go direct in paying dlvi-
dends on the amount Of stocks already
out. ItwOuld look too big lfthe cash
to be paid in dividends Ia paid on s10,-
100000 it only makes half the rate of
interest it does if paid on IS, 000,0 900
and to the vulgar public it makes
great difference. This is about tue
plan pursued in all great corporate in
dustries, from railroads to coal mines,
Another Thing to be mentioned is the
solidarity OF both interests, the EN-
plOyer and the employed. The mine
operators are in p oil and act as one
body. If one or two disagree il makes
little or no difference. The whole
mining industry of the East is as much
one as If owned by the government.
The employees Of course are also in one
organization and the individual is
merged into the whole. He is under
direction of his organization and its
leaders, When such conditions exist
what old fool is there who will talk of
the old theory of liberty called ''lndi-
vidualism" Such Il thing 10 present
society is an impOssibiity The ques-
tiOn then is, since there must be- assO
citation" and solidarity, who will be the
the trusts working through
corruption svowedly for their own
greed, or the government working per-
haps through officials WHO are some
times dishonest but professedly for the
good of the public These ideas may be
looking a good way into the future but
at the present pace it is not very far.

Of Chief Justice DOster. We have no
personal acquaintance with him and
trust to the comittee for its judgement
in saying that we believe they have
made no mistake MIR. Breidenthal
has made an ideal chairman. The party
owes more to him for its success in this
State than any other one man and it
will be difficult to find a man who can
fill Misplace as he did. 1t is also u fact
that his work has not been appreciated
as it should be. AS a practical states
man of constructive ability he has not
a peer in the State, AS a level headed
counselor be has no superior, as an or
gsniZer and manager he is unap
preached and as an honest and trust
worthy officer he is beyond the criticism
Of most of his political enemies He is
such man as not only the party but
the State may be justly proud. 1t is
with sorrow that We see him retire
from the craftsmanship.

A MIGHTY roar has envelOped the
nation since injunction was issued by
the federal courts against the striking
miners of West Virginia restraining
them from marching and endeavOring
to persuade their fellow workmen to
cease work. 1t has been so loud that
there is even talk that the order will
be rescinded. 1t may be true that
these injunctiOns lead in the direction
OF some other method of settlement,
but 1T is not true that they so far have
led in the direction of any protection
to the labOring men, 1t is claimed by
some that from their nature if they can
be applied to organizations of 'aboring
men they can be also applied to
organizations Of operators, preventing
them from lOckOuts. But the fact re-
mains that while the courts have re-
peatedly, continually taken to them
selves more and more authority in
these matters, they have not in sim
gle instance made any order which
restrained the capitalists from any ar
bitrary acts. This is good example
of what is frequently termed Judge
made law" What legislature or con.
gress would ever dare to pass an act
with provisions such as those of these
iniunctionsp 1t is plainly case of the
courts nsurping powers which belong
to the legislative branch because they
are appointed to hold for life and are
responsible to no one that has any ad.
verse interest. This is either a govern
ment of the people or it is not. AS our
federal courts are now organized thuy
are no more responsible to the people
than the courts Of Russia. We believe
with Lincoln that 1.-THE people are the
rightful masters Of both congress and
courts"

HIGHER WHEAT.

One of the most pleasing events of
the season is the marked rise in the
price of wheat OF course republican
papers, true to their instincts of at
tempting to turn everything to some
political account, asserts that this
happy fact turns all the pops and dem
ocrats inside out with convalsioDs, but
it will certainly hardly have that effect
on any pop or democrat who has wheat
to sell. Each pop or democrat of that
sort will take his increase and return
thanks, not to Mckinley for bringing
him good crop, but to the ruler of
winds and rains, nor to Mckinley for
better prices, but to Him who in his
wisdom has brought short crops to
dwellers in foreign lands. AT the
commencement Of the season the sup
ply of old wheat on hand was only
about half what it was four years ago.
India who has usually exported largely
is in famine and is importing. Argen-
tine whose fields have been favorite
topics for the bears in wheat prices in
recent years is this year importing
wheat.
Dunn's review this week says: The
urgency Of French buying of wheat,
reports that Russia will stop exports
in order to keep supplies for itself and
continued shipments from the Paci fic
to the countries usually having a sur
plus, make even the largest estimates
of probable supplies not too great for
the possible demand"
The rise IN the price of wheat is
therefore no more than might be ex-
pected whatever the condition of the
supply of money. The GAZETTE
several months ago remarked th't by
all the laws known to control the mar
kets, wheat should bring a fair price
this year, y gold standard to the con-
trary Notwithstanding.
