AT HIGH NOON TODAY.

At high noon today the American peo-
pie will rejoice in the acquisition of two
adverse wishes. William Mckinley,
whom they have chosen president, will
come TO his place, and Grover Cleve-
land will retire to private life. The ac-
claim for the one will be overwhelming,
the regret for the other less than a ST.
lence The qualification over the one
will only be excelled by the satisfaction
felt because of the other. ConjOined
the resultant happiness will prove prac-
tically universal with seventy millions
of people The dark days of the past
four years of rule which has been
ruin will be forgotten in the hour or an
ticipation of better things. The i'm
pressing pageant Of military and civic
societies, their banners and music, NOV
ing in glittering array beneath the
brightness of spring time sun will
reach from the capitol TO the executive
mansion. The reverberating music Of
its bands will roll away across the wa
tiers OF the Potomac and up over the
heights of Arlington and through the
hills Of the Old Dominion. With these
viii come new inspira ton, will come
the hope to the American people that
the dominancy of greed in high places
has ended; that bond-dealS and gold
steals, that pension vetOes and the days
Of pretentious Neroism have departed
with that strange personality who with
such stolidity has ordered the misfor-
tunes of the people through the entire
siege of an administration, the best re-
suits of which all seem to have been
accused by heaven Over the depart
ure Of the one there will be no re-
grets. over the coming Of the other only

have been able and comprehensive and
upon the whole the country has been
most thoroughly instructed and enlight-
ened. In this effort for education there
is 4 wonderful unanimity in assigning
as one of the most prominent OF the
troubles the money question. Even
these who hold that the conditions are
more directly traceable to over-prGduc-
ton. do not pretend to ignore the prom
inent part which the currency question
has played Dean Gordon, one OF
Wichita's youngest lawyers, appears in
the current number of the Arena IN an
able and thoughtful paper in which the
question of failing prices" is ably and
logically reviewed. He starts out with
the proposition that general prices are
the thermometer of social progress. y
This text followed 10 its ultimates
proves somewhat automatic. Single
gold standard men do not abound in the
west. no more is that eastern maya
zine the Arena, their organ. Still. the
highest, the most practical and alto
gether the sentiments which have chal-
lenged the attention of the world on
the subject of money and its relation
to present economic troubles, have come
from the west. The west has long been
the heart and nerve center Of the ma
ton. and it is about to become the
brain-center also, in short the CONTROL
ing seat of power not only politically
but commercially, therefore monetari-
ally.
Mr.. Gordon in his Arena article
shows that while the fiuctuation Of cur
rency values sway prices that still the
rise or fall of the purchasing power OF
money in no wise affects the exchange
able value Of things. For instance, a
lead of hay which wilt buy certain
coat will buy that coat under all mon
etary conditions. From this PROPOSE
ton he goes on to show that when there
is no tiuctuation in the value of money,
or the metal which it embodies, that
then theriseor fall in general prices be-
comes an unfailing rule by which may
be determined the fall or rise in social
economy and progress. From this ba-
sis or thesis, he proceeds 10 conclu-
sion with his original proposition We
haze not snace to review Mr.. Gordon S
paper, but it IS one Of more than ordi-
nary merit, being logically handled and
showing much reflection. The trend of
his argument goes to show that none
tary and commercial conditions act and
react reciprocally, that the loss in one
direction is a gain in another, except
that in eras of failing prices" there
can be no social progress the word
social being used IN its unlimited sig
