One of the principal Illinois Bryanites
has issued an address bearing on the
pending judicial campaign in Chicago,
asserting that free coinage could not
have any bearing whatever on the elec-
ton of judges This will be hard
dose for the Silvcrites to swallow. How
there can be an election that does not
turn on free coinage and reflect the
strength Of the silver element is incom-
prchensible to them. TO rational beings,
on the other hand, it would be difficult
to prove the slightest connection be
tween the qualifications of Il judge and
n belief in the Chicago platform.

The lord high commissioner of Canada
is careful to assure the people of the
United States that the new Canadian
tariff ia in no way founded on hostility
to this country, but merely intended to
accentuate Canuda's attachment to
Great Britain. Not that Brutus loved
Caesar less, but that he loved Rome
more. Just to show how great n regard
they have for the United States the
Canadians have undertaken to discrim-
mate against its commercial interests
that borders on measures of retaliation
for imaginary wrongs.

THE RFrlsED MOyROE DOcTRiNE,


The veteran Senator Morrill, made n
vigorous speech in the United States
senate few days ago in opposition TO
the Morgan Cuban resolution. one fea-
ture of his speech merits wide attention
and will be largely approved. He de-
clared that the new version of the Mon
roe doctrine made by the jingoes, If it
is to be the established policy Of the ma
tion. will require the creation of an
army and navy which will eclipse that
which might be brought against them,
the pilins up of taxes to sustain hugo
military establishment ana the supple
menting of the schoolmaster with the
soldier Perhaps this Is n rather strong
statement of the case and yet if the
United States is to become the fighting
champion of all the American republics,
big and little. 1t is perfectly Obvious that
ut least the naval power of the nation
will have to be very much greater than
1t is.
Senator Morrill, was quite right in his
implication that the Monroe doctrine
was not intended to place the United
States in any such position as that of
fighting champion for the republics of
this hemisphere. When that doctrine
was enuncated this country was not in
a condition TO assume so great II respon-
statesmen OF that time who approved

The defeat Of the notorious Humphrey
street railway bills in the Illinois legis-
lature is Il notable victory in the cause
of honest government. There is no
question but that these bills which were
designed practically to turn over the city
Of Chicago to Il huge street railway
combine represented one of the most
gigantic legislative steals of recent
years. All Chicago, as it were. has been
up in arms against these measures ever
since they showed their faces in the
legislature and the entire reputable
press of Illinois has been unit against
them. Their defeat is conclusive cvi-
dence of the power welded by public
sentiment under the guidance of fear
less and free newspapers.

A RUINOUs COMBINE.
Foreign Manufacturers and Bonanza
Kings Delaying Good Times.

Boston journal.
It Is Europes determination to throw at
least a years supply Of foreign goods into
America before the new tariff can go into
operation.
Tho foreign manufacturers are being as
sisted in this conspiracy by the free trading
Tree coming senator's who have thus far "hung
up" the arbitration treaty and seem to take
particular delight in defying the will Of the
American people. Imports are coming in in
Hoods which recall the palmiest days of Cor
an-WisOnsm. The regular steamship lines
are crowded. Extra boats have had to be
pat into service to handle the crush of mer-
chandlse.
Our total imports for Aprl are estimated to
be at least $50, 100000. This Is nearly twice
tho normal volume OF our import trade. In
August 1896, our imports we're valued at
$40 900 600 In September, October and No
yember they stood at $50. 900, 900 But as soon
as tho result of the elections was thoroughly
known and the restoration OF protection was
seen to be inevitable. the foreign manufac-
tuleTs began to rush in their goods in an
ticlpation OF the higher duties
In December imports rose to s5S,0OO,O 600.
In January, 1897 they fell to sal ,0DO 900, but
they rose again In February to $4,000 0C0.
and in March to S76, 900 900. II Is the belief
of the foreigners that II they can thus over
whelm our markets and prevent the revival
of native manufacturing and tho return Of
prosperity the people in their disappointment
viii destroy the Dlngley tarlH Dill without
giving ID a fair chance ana again open their
ports freely to European products This is
also the hope and desire OF the sllyertes, save
that they look to the triumph. not of free
trade only, but also of free coinage n enough
foreign goods can be hurried in to delay or
defeat the logical results of protective legisla-
ton
Altogether, It Is an interesting combination
Of the foreign manufacturers and the bonanza
kings TO cheat the American people out OF the
good times which they are anticipating. The
prompt enactment OF the Dngley bill would
coufouud both elements Of the conspiracy,

reasonably safe for capital to invest in sugar
factories. It is proposed to make analyses

results may receive enecial attention.

Shutting out silver.

Tho Peruvian government has stopped the
coinage Of silver and adopted stringent regu-

country Peru is one OF the great silver

to check the depreciation of its coin. Peru,
like every other nation, has found that the
