the governments finances have been in the deplorable condition in which we now find them? Not at all. Would bond issues have been neees- sary if we had not wasted money on rivers and harbors, on pensions, on useless public buildings, and on private claims without merit? Not at all. The whole trouble is that we have wasted publff, money. We have been improvident and reckless in our expenditures, and of course we ran behind. If our expenses had been held down to what they were in 1886, the second year of Cleve- lands first administration, we would now have a surplus of $50, 0,000,0 GOO a year, instead of defcit.-A9haasas Democrat.

MR. BRYAN, in the course of his Little Rock speech, said: "Obser- vation has proven that every man who attempts to destroy the abuses of government is assailed by those who profit by such abuses. Just so. This is true in National, State and municipal politics. The very minute any of the abuses of govern ment are attacked, that minute do the benefciaries of the aforesaid abuses attempt to cruelty those who have the hardihood to call attention to them.

THREE United State Senators have

THREE United State Senators have been recently appointed, as follows: Henderson, of Florida; Wood, of Kentucky, and Corbett, of Oregon. In view of the case of Lee Mantle, it is not probable that any of these Senators will be seated. It has been held that where the Legislature fails to elect for the regular term the Governor has no power to ap- point. In the event this ruling is accepted as a precedent, Florida, Kentucky and Oregon will be repre- sented by only one Senator each until the Legislatures fill the vacan- dies by regular elections.

Women are the real heroes of the world. Thousands on thousands of them endure the dragging torture of the ills peculiar to womankind in the silence of home. They suffer on and on-weeks, months, years. The story of weakness and torture is written fn tie drawn features, in the sal1ow skin, in the list less eyes, in the lines of care and worry on the face.
 Inborn nodesty seals their lips. They prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has made them believe the only hope of relief lies in the exposure of examina- tion and '1ocal treatment.1 J

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, April 23.-Undeviating
dullness marked the dealings in stocks
to-day from the start to finish. The total
shares sold amounted to S9,590 and deal
ers and brokers found their occupation
practically gone. Tobacco was the only
stock dealt in to the extent of ,lO,OOO
)shares and that was n selling movement.
In the railway list, outside the coalers,
the only stock which varied its price to
the extent of a point was Burlington and
its net change was only half. Such
market offered no inducements except 10
the strictly professional element and to
them only for a very quick turn on an
almost infinitessimal margin. The whole
market continued to be dominated by
the war situation in Europe, and the
opening adhered closely to the level al
ready established for the days trading
in London The indisposition to trade in
stocks seemed to be based on the expecta-
ton that the Turks were sure to win
success ultimately and that Greek sue
cesses only served to delay the ending of
the war which would come by the inter
position of the powers in the event of
Turkish success.
In spite of the animation In the mar
ket. it is noticeable that the bears are
very chary of making any wholesale on
slaught. or of putting out new short
lines. Indications point also to large
decrease in the existing short interest in
the last few days, the loan rate for most
stocks being much reduced, except where
manipulated, as in the case of the coal
ers. The bond market displayed fair
degree of activity with values generally
| firm. Governments lacked feature, but
were generally well held on dealings Of
$4,000.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

It is encouraging to learn from the
Washington dispatches of yesterday that
the House Committee on Rules has und er
consideration the Nicaragua canal bill and
may arrange to give it an early hearing.
The subject is one in which the whole
country is interested, ana almost any bill
providing for a speedy beginning of the
great work would be generally approved.
From the tone of the discussion before
the Committee on Rules it seems the only
serious objections to the bill are based
upon doubts as to the feasibility OF the
enterprise. When Mr.. Doolittle read the
measure proposed by the committee he
was frequently interrupted by questions
concerning the engineering difficulties to
be encountered and the probable cost of
overcoming them. These questions he
answered from information gathered by
the Commerce Committee, and his ex-
plantations seem to have been satisfactory
to the majority of those who heard him.
1t is clear that since the Commerce Com
mittee has drawn up measure providing
for the construction of the canal and de-
sires to report it the members of that body
at any rate must be convinced of the prac-
Vi tIIc SCUcmS. uS lIlOI uld-
ton which has been sufficient to confirm
them in favor of the undertaking will
doubtless be equally satisfactory to other
members of the House, and there is there
fore good reason for believing that if time
can be given for consideration of the bill
at this session it will be sustained.
1t is gratifying to note that Speaker
Reed spoke favorably of the measure and
seemed inclined to advance it as rapidly
as possible. He is reported as saying he
has always been satisfied of the feasibility
of the enterprise and partial to it because
of the advantage it would be to the Pacific
Coast. This attitude of the Speaker of
the House gives encouragement to the
hope that it may be brought up for action
at an early day. Mr.. Reed knows how to
keep business moving when he gets it
started, and it is safe to say that if any
way can be found to bring the bill into the
House before the end of this month the
Speaker will find means of moving it along
with sufficient rapidty to be sent to the
Senate in time for that slow acting body
to discuss 1t and vote on it before the ses-
sion closes
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1897-01-14

CORPORATION BLACKLISTS.

One of the bills now before Congress
which is likely to give rise to no little dis
cussion is that OF Congressman Lorimer
of Illinois, which defines the act OF black
listing men who have taken part in strikes
as "a conspiracy ainst the United
States" The object OF the bill is to pre-
vent large corporations, and particularly
railroad companies, from putting the
names of strikers upon their blacklists and
thus largely depriving them of the chance
TO earn living.
According to reports which have come
to US the bill excludes from It's benefits all
strikers who have engaged in lawess acts
in connection with strike, lockout or
other conflict between labor and capital;
out it affirms the right OF every wage
Garner to leave his work whenever he
pleases, and to leave it either by and OF
himself or in company with multitude
OF others.
There can be no question of the essen
tial justice of such measure. A strike is
no doubt frequently an act OF folly, which
results in damage to the community at
large, but that is. no reason why the
striker should thereafter find himself de-
barred by corporate influence from obtain
ing work. a com bination of large en-
ployers to keep industrious men out of
work by way of vindlctive punishment is
as prejudicial to public welfare as any
thing that could be well imagined. The
men who are thus shut out from all ave-
nues of employment at the trades in which
they are skilled are forced to JOIN the
already too rapidly increasing army of the
unemployed, and add materially to the
mass of disconnected men. In their dis
content, moreover, there is sense of in
justice which will add to it's aggressive
ness and tend to make it menace to the
general peace and pubic welfare.
A folly is not crime, and ii should not
be punished as such. Whenever striker
engages IN criminal act there are laws
sufficient to punish him, and no corpora
ton should presume TO take the punish
ment into its own hands. Blacklists no
doubt serve good purpose in some re-
spects, but when they are carried to the
extent of a combination on the part of
great employers of labor to exclude from
employment men who have simply exer-
cised the right of quitting work they be-
come pernicious, and 1t is time that the
strong hand of the law sho uld interfere to
prevent'such an exercise of irresponsible
poWer
