And the republican party is not,
and for years has not been, con-
trolled by the men who vote it's
tickets or are delegates in it's
conventions. Not only WAS the
whole burden Of argument adj
vanced by the republican party
from both press and platform,
in the late campaign, opposed to
bimetallism, but the influences
that do control the party, both
by utterance and self interest
are pledged to fight it.
Mark it down where you can
refer to it every time they ring
in this bluff, that there will be
no legislation by the coming ad-
ministration favorable to silver.
The bankers and the big trusts
are opposed to it, and the little
fellows have to dance to the big

pose toward nobler life. Of
course one day is like another,
and our division of time merely
an arbitrary one, but, yet, in the
future, as in the past, the adj
vent of the New Year, will con-
tinue to symbolic the youth of
the world, the perennial, joy of
creation, the immortal spirit
that, amid the ravages of death
and decay and care and sorrow,
still pursues it's course to it's
celestial destiny.

many conspirators. It's an i'll
wind that blows no good to
somebody.

The populists in congress have
expressed their desire to see the
highest kind of a tariff bill en-
acted just as soon as possible.
They have come to this c0nclu-
sion, not from any loyalty to
the principles of protection, but
because they believe the speedy
enactment of such a measure
will convince the country,
quicker than anything else, that
protection will not restore pros
perity.

Oh, this banking system is
the greatest on earth. If you
happen to overdraw your bank
account dollar or two, the
bank officials inform you that
it must be attended to immedi
ately and that they never pay
checks drawn for more than
your deposit unless special ar
rangements are made, but they
can close their doors any time
they wish without making
special arrangement is with de-
positors. This banking system
is just what you voted for; and
as we have said before; we be-
lieve in free country; the
voters getting what they vote
for. From all accounts of bank
failures the past week we
should Judge you were getting
what you hollered for: McKin-
ley prosperity.

The New Year.

We send greetings to our many
readers and patrons and wish
that nature may be generous to
you all the coming year, 1897.
The thought that some of us
who now look out upon this
glorious earth, and drink in it's
1ife-giving airs, and feed upon
it's beauty, will on another
new year, lie buried inits bosom,
is natural thought. 1t in
trudes itself upon us, and will
not be put away, for it is true.
The richness and fullness of life as
surely suggest the coming still
ness and darkness, as the
shadows are sure to nestle
among the leaves in the rich
heart of the summer day. The
spectre cOnfronts us alone in the
closet, but he walks beside us in
the brightest day, and intrudes
upon our happiest moments. Yet,
in spite of that, on this day.
New Years day-our thoughts
penetrate into that unknown
future and our hopes, our pros
poets for the coming year seem
brightest.
Now, is the time, we "post the
books'-not the ledgers alone,
but the account current of our
lives-and see whether we are

Where's Your Prosperity?
Our gold standard friends OBJ
ject to the disposition, on the
part of the silverites, to call at
tention to every indication of
industrial or financial disaster
as an evidence of the failure of
their promises that the election
of Mckinley would restore
prosperity. They are very ten
der on this point and claim,
that as Mckinley is not yet
president their party is not yet
responsible.
But why need we wait?
The gold democrats. who now
control the government, were
allies in the late contest of the
McKinleyites. Not only did
the national democrats work
in harmony with the republic
cans, but both argued with
common arguments for the &C.
complishment of a common
purpose.
The republicans claimed,
moreover, that all that was
needed was confidence. The
election shows that they have
the confidence of the people in
hitherto unheard of degree,
and in consequence, after
March 4, they will have all
branches of the government in
their control.
If confidence was all that was
needed, then, why need we wait
for prosperity?
The government is now in
the hands of the republicans
and their allies. Not single
measure can become law
without running the gauntlet
of a republican congress or the
veto of a gold standard pres
