$500 for $I.OO.

We are even now paying our bonded
debt at the rate of four dollars for one
dollar Tin value) received by the Govern
ment. First the 5o-cent greenback rose
to par with gold. Then by the partial
demonstration of silver the gold itself
was doubled in exchange value. The
complete establishment of the gold stan
dard in Europe and America will double
it again in twenty-five years or less, and
then we will be paying our war debt at
the rate of IS for every 81 loaned to the
Government.
What is true of our National debt is
true of all other debts of equally long
standing, while those of more recent con-
tracing having risen aud their burden
increased just i'll proportion as the money
unit (the dollar has appreciated, which
has been at the rate of about pr cent a
year for the last twenty-four years.

sell $I65, 900. 900 to Europe more than we
bought and no gold worth naming come
in to pay for the goods. The thing is
plain as ABC. The foreigners who were
compelled to buy our wheat sent back
railroad bonds, city bonds, State bonds
and other like securities, and sold them
in our markets, to our people, for our own
money, deposited the money in the banks
and paid for the wheat with it. They
pay for our wheat by returning part of
the debt we owe them. The foreigners
bought these securities five billions of
then) because there was not enough
money in this country to buy them, and
now the farmers wheat is buying some of
them back.

The Condition of Trade.

The following is the condition of trade
as compiled from last weeks business
Neither external nor internal trade
proves altogether satisfactory as full re-
ports come in for October. The excess of
merchandise exports over imports wascon-
fidently expected to be greater il Octo-
Der this year than in October, 1896. In
stead the excess for the month this year,
SOL, S22 900, is $I,227, 900 less than last
year. The actual balance is, it is true,
probably greater. because last year an ad
valorem tariff led to wholesale under
valuation, but. OH the other hand, the net
gold imports in October, 1896. were
$27,6I7,eIS. This year they are less than
half as large, or only ST., ,I7o, i'll spite
of the heaviest trade balance in our his
tory. For three months this balance has
amounted to $I65, ooo, 900. and for ten 10
$2Ie,ooo, ooo-unexarhpled figures

eff after IS to gold should go to
premium it becomes commodity the
same as paper, hogs and wheat and would
not disturb prices. premium on gold
when gold is a commodity is as harmless
as Mary's little Lamb. but the apprecia-
ton of gold when gold alone is the stan

That is the experience of this country
when the greenbaks we're the only money
in use. The great premium OH gold did
not effect business, any more than any
other commodity for sale on the market.
Gold was for sale and those who wanted
it purchased IT at the market price, the
same as copper, iron, steel, tin or any
other article. Gold then did not cut any
figure as money on prices. Plenty OF
money made good times and prosperity
among the people.

HOW THE SHERIFF ESCAPED.
HE AND SOME OF HIS FELLOW "GAR0os" HAVE
LIVELY EXPERIENCE AT GRAND
PALACE.

The General Committee Of the German American
Reform Union had meeting last night at the
Grand Central Palace In leaving the hall, which
was AT the top OF the building, about hundred
roerr ers OF the committee, including Sheriff Tam
sen had an adventure which made many Of them
think Of the possibilities in case Of fire. The eleva-
for was entirely inadequate 10 the task OF taking
down 800 or COO people within reasonable time and
finally a cry went up. ITO the stairs y column at
once started down iron stairs that led down
into p sort Of we'll with brick walls for the sides.
When they had gone down to the bottom 1t was
found that the door locked. The crowd pressing
from above prevented retreat that way, however.
and IN, 'safcty exit" seemed likely TO prove YER
liable trap For several minutes the men surgcd
ohou and shouted themselves hoarse. but al length
another door was forced open. This led TO the main
oxbibition floor. but when the commit tteemen went
dn,yn the main stairway they found the huge iron
.,,,tcs barring the way at the bottom. They were
ehou 10 fry break the gates down, but just then
waiter appeared and unlocked them. Just out
ga" be gates there "A lot of people sitting at
f"blcs and drinking beer. and when IT was seen
,ha, Sheriff Tamsen had been among those behind
the gates. a boisterous shout went up
.sT'be Sheriff has escaped cried some one, but
Mr. Tamsen paid attention 10 the joke.
