1870 O'Clock today. just as soon as

in both houses while they were in

the resolution Immediately. and will
proceed at once to consult with the

be tried for four months and it is pretty
well understood that if times continue to

This is refreshing, since we were told
last fall that as soon as Mckinley was
elected there would be restored conf
dence and prosperity would return as
soon as the money lenders had the assur-
ance that the gold standard would be
maintained. They told us that what we
needed was to open the mills an not the
