Notwithstanding the sun of prosper
since the Sd Of November, and more
brightly ever since the 4th of March,
failures are noted i'll excess of the same
period of last year, and now there are
great labor strikes in New York, Chi

wages have declined all along the

1t was almost needless for the papers
reporting the inaugural proceedings
to have stated that President Cleve-
land as the procession moved to the

Politeness demands that when invited
to feast one must eat what is set before
him. Is this why the Stonewall Band
undertook to eat up the darkies who
were set before them in the procession
on Inaugural day?

As the Inaugural is over Gov. Bush
nell of Ohio. can give his neck rest.
He used it rather freely for bowling
purposes on that day. There was
really no necessity for him to have
done SO, the people were applauding
only one act OF his, and that was his
appointment of Mr. Hanna Senator.

The lavish use of money elected Mr.
Mckinley presiden5. Those who spend
money expect quid pro quo. Those
who SO iavishly poured it out in
the last campaign did not do it out Of
patriotism. Will their investment
prove good one? 1t was made as
they make other investments, coldly
calculating a profit. Again we enquire
will they be disappointed. Time will
reveal.

At the Inaugural Ball no color line

The 54th Congress just adjourned,
spent more money than any Congress
which has assembled in % years. Its
appropriations last year were over five
hundred millions, and this year over
five hundred millions, thereby earning
in every sense the title OLA Billion
Dollar Congress.

The Rev. "A. P. Funkhouser of Rock
ingham, did well on inaugural day.
He succeeded in getting into line a
little over one hundred of his ''Con
federate veteran patriots" and sad
ding the expenses on Gen. John E.
Roller. Now if he gets an office what
he will have done for the Rev. Apey
will have been thousand.

That the nth Congress so strongly
reiinb! can, should, under the depress-
ed tine existing since they were elect.
ed, have spent over a billion of dollars
seems ABSOLUTELY beyond human con.
reption Now that dollar will buy
twice as much as formerly. and money
-crrcer than ever known before, the
,ppa dl.rre is harder to bear than if
IL had been Two billions in ordinary

Our farmer friends will note careful
ly, that as soon as the higher tariff
goes into effect they will pay more for
everything they buy, and get no ad-
vance on what they have to sell. This
is no prophecy, it is plain truth. dnd
all they need do is to remember it.
