despite the chilling winds of January.
The era of brotherly love and simple
faith, wherein confidence was to do
everything and cash to be a minor
consideration, is not yet sufficiently in
evidence to excite the people. Mean
while Dunn's commercial Agency has
employed funny man to manipulate
its statistics. He claims that the year
1897 begins with one clear advantage,
that unsound concerns representing
something like twenty-seven billion
dollars were swept out of existence in
1896. As these firms represent about
nine times as much cash as there is
now on earth under the gold standard,
the conclusion is that we are to rejoice
that they are gone. The funny man of
Dunn's Commercial Agency thinks the
fact that twenty seven billion dollars
of value have vanished into thin air is
a matter of no consequence, no conse-
quence whatever. We suppose that
he is satisfied that the great number
of failures since the year '97 was ush-
cred in betokens increased prosperity
and is precursor of that confidence
which is to mako everybody happy.
Every reader of Lorna Doone" will re-
member how the Counselor made the
cream rise and how Annie thereby lost
the diamond necklace. 1t looks very
much as if the same deception was be-
ing successfully practiced upon great
people. But it should be remembered
that the Doone's were destroyed and
the necklace was restored.

1T is announced that Senator Sher-
man will become the Premier of the
incoming administration, and accom-
panying this announcement is the
statement that the Senator's opinions
have undergone marked change upon
the question of the recognition of Cuba.
Heretofore Senator Sherman has been
regarded as one of the most bellicose
members of the upper house. He had
no doubt that congress could recognize
the Cubans as belligerents and bind
the Executive by its action. But OF
late a spirit of doubt has descended
upon him. He is not SO sure that Mr..
Cleveland's position is not sound. 1t
has become a question in his mind
whether any action on the part of the
immediate representatives of the peo-
pie looking to the putting an end to
the devastation and bloodshed that
now overwhelmns that island would
not be piece of impertinence. Mr..
Sherman has received a tip. The
money power, for reasons of its own,
has suddenly become averse to Cuban
independence, or at least to this coun-
try giving aid to the cause of liberty
and humanity in that island. This
settles it. Whatever the money power
requires of Mr.. Sherman he will do;
for is he not their servant, paid for
with their money? Should his masters
demand it, he would advocate the
sending of an armed force to Cuba to
put down the rebellion and deliver the
bodies of the insurgents, men women
and children TO the butcher Weyler to
be dealt with according to his pleas
ure. McKinley's administration will
be in the hands of the same men that
control the Cleveland administration.
There will be no radical change of pol
icy in regard to Cuba or anything else
unless the interests of the money pow
er demand it. The interests of our peo-
pie will not be considered any more
than the interests of humanity. How
can they be If the people who bought
McKinley's election are to get the
goods they paid for? Any sympathy
with Cuba or Cubans is a waste of the
raw material if the money power con-
cludes to actively oppose Cuban indie
pendence.

The people of this country are be-
coming impatient at the unreasonable
delay in the restoration of confidence.
Before the election the hustings re-
sounded with pleas for the election of
Mckinley on the ground that it would
at once bring confidence to the front
and then, in that day of harmony,
trust and brotherly love, there would
be no great necessity for cash but
credit would answer nearly every pur-
pose of business. The merchant was
no longer to look to the earning capa-
city of his customer but was to part
with his goods to him in the child-like
faith that, in some way or other his
confidence was to be rewarded and the
equivalent of his property restored to
him, without looking to the how or
when. The banker was no longer to
look with suspicion upon the man who
presented check or demanded loan.
but, in the confidence that was to flow
from the election of Mckinley, was to
take the public to his heart, open his
Golfers and let golden streams flood
the land without so much as mention
ing collateral. The bond holder was
TO eschew usury. The cod and the
herring were TO dwell together in
harmony with the herring, for once
on the outside. The millennium was
20 come. The Halcyon days were to
return to the earth. Mckinley was
elected but the merchant still hesitates
to extend credit to his impecunious
customer and rely upon confidence to
replenish his shelves. The appetite
of the banker tor sound collateral,
when he makes loan, is still unaba-
ted. He scrutinizss the checks pre-
scented at the cashiers window as anx-
iously as ever. There is no visible
flow of gold or good greenback from his
Golfers as yet. The bond holders affec-
ton for his cent per cent. is as great
as ever. Confidence seems to have
been side tracked and it is cash only
that ia in demand. The Wall Street
shepherd shears his lambs as usual,

new arguments and put their former
ones into different shapes. The pre-
vious vote has tried the strength of
the question and furnished ground to
estimate the result of the issue. The
question is now offered for its passage,
and this Is the last occasion which is
offered for either carrying or rejecting
it, and no further change can be made.
A conformity to system OF rules of
procedure operates as a check and
control on the actions of the majority;
and in many instances is a protection
to the minority against the attempts OF
power. The ability of a majority by
their numbers. can prevent any improp-
er legislation; while the only means by
which a minority can defend themselves
against similar attempts from those in
power, are in rules and forms of proceed
ure which have been adopted as they
have been found necessary. By a strict
adherence to these laws and usages, the
weaker party can be protected from
those Irregularities, which these forms
were intended to prevent, and just
such actions as the unwantonness of
power is but too often sure to suggest
too large majorities The intracacies
and exact meaning of some of the Gus
tomary rules is quite beyond compre-
hension, and is as liable to mislead
the uninitiated as it is to furnish him
intended assistance. A few instances
have already happened, whore a no.
ton to table an amendment, to some
ones question, was assisted by the
origination of the proposition, only to
learn as the next business came up,
that he had naturally aided in defeat
ing his own wishes.
1t has been remarked by the news
papers that this legislature is hostile
to corporations. AS no decisive vote
has been taken on anything of that ma
ture, this statement is entirely a mat
ter of speculation.
am inclined to record a personal
opinion in this statement, that | am
satisfied that some corporations will
find friends and advocates among the
members, who have about as much I'M
mediate concern in the wishes and
welfare of monOpolies as a locomotive
has for palm leaf fan. The impor-
lance which is placed upon we'll known
lobbyists, who have favors to dispense;
and the commotion which their ap-
pearance produces, inclines me to the
belief that some people will have to
either disappoint the corporations or
their friends at home. An important
factor in deciding an uninterested
member lies in the fact, that a lobby
ist is always well paid, well-iuformed
individual, with ability to present his
side of the case, and advise everybody
who thinks differently. G. w. F., JR.

Gold and Silver Production.


Bradstreet's presents some figures
concerning the production Of gold and
silver by the nations of the world. and
those who are sorely afraid that the
immense amount Of silver would drive
out the little amount of gold III the
event of free coinage are requested to
study this showing, says the Gazette.
During the calendar year of 1896 the
silver production of the world had a
coinage value at the ratio of 16 to l of
$2l5, ,204, 700. During the same time the
coinage value of the worlds produc-
.tion of gold was $204, 100000. The diff
ference between these amounts repre-
sents the terrible "excess' of silver
over gold that fiightens the advocates
of the gold standard into conniption
fits. If all the gold and silver mined
jim the world during 1896 were coined
into American money, the increase in
the per capita circulation would be less
than $6. But of course such an enor-
NOUS increase is not to be thought Of
for a moment.
After deducting the amount of gold
used in the arts and sciences, the re
mainder of the gold and silver mined
in the world during 1896 would not, if
coined into American money, increase
the circulation over 81 per capita. But
such 'Fdood' OF money is not 10 be
endured It would ruin the people to
be flooded with money to the extent of
about So per capita.
| After all their talk about the United
States being the dumping ground for
silver, it must be painful to the gold
standard advocates to discover that if
all the silver mined in the world dur
ing 1896 we're coined into American dol
| lars the CfroaiotiIg ns-s<ess.:1s;4I wOzald be
increased to the extent of just So per
capita. Will any sane man declare that
such an increase would be detrimental
to the business of the country?

The New Era says that the Philadel-
phia Times has been doing good work
in exposing the iniquity of the COM
pany stores maintained in the mining
regions The miners are expected to
purchase their provisions, clothing and
other supplies from these stores, where
they are charged from 20 to 80 per cent
more than they could purchase them
for at cash stores. The result is that
in many cases the monthly statement
shows that the workman is in debt to
the stores. If they exercise the right
to purchase where they can buy on the
best terms, they soon find themselves
discharged and their places filed with
men, who are more subservient to the
tyranny of the bosses. It is not sur
prising that thoserae are eofsconfented
and periodically planning strikes. To
be paid the lowest wages for the hard
est work and then swindled at these
pluck 'em stores is severe test upon
human endurance.

ty, should carefully scrutinize all leg
islation this winter. They should re-
member that silver was surreptitiously
demonetized in 1873 And that during
the recent special session clause % was
smuggled into the Dingley bill. From
all indications the money power intend
to exhaust all their ingenuity and in
fluence, open and secretly, to secure
legislation favorable to themselves,
and, as natural consequence, detri-
mental to the people at large. Chaun.

Gambling as a Fine Art.

The most refined gambling known at
present is dealing in futures on the
stock exchange. The most objection
able is crap shooting The first is in
dulged in by respecta BILE church going
gentlemen. The last is resorted to by
ignorant negroes in the back alleys.
We elect the grain gambler to high Of
fice The crap shooter we send to the
rock pile. As for the moral difference
between the two it is the distinction
between tweedledum and tweedledee.
Gam bling in grain is even worse than
other gam bling. The ordinary gam
blers only iniare themselves and the
family dependent on them. Grain gam
blers speculate on the food of nations
Upon their nefarious transactions de.
pends the happiness Of those who sell
grain o. buy bread. Sometimes, as just
now, the gam blers, with the aid of ac-
cidental conditions, toss high the price
of wheat. This brings mere to the
farmer-if perchance it comes when be
has wheat to sell. At other times the
price is forced down and the grain pro-
Queer suffers. But whether the price
is forced up or down, dealing in futures
is bad for the morality and the pros
perity of a nation.-Coldmbi Heroid.

Says the Phoenix Herald Eastern
people and papers, especially the work
ing people of that section of country
are beginning to realize that good
portion of their distress arises from
the fact that herds of European labor
ers are rushed into this country each
year without any intention 10 become
citizens, but for the purpose of taking
advantage of the comparatively high
ratio OF wages in the United States, and
that the money earned by these people
is sent out of the country, entirely.
The competition with such foreign la
Dor at home in the eastern states has
become as lively as Is competition of
American goods with European goods
made by the relatives of these Euro
pean workmen who come to our shores.
A concerted and strong attempt will be
made to get bill through Congress
this winter limiting immigration TO this
country.
