The excitement and interest caused
by the recent finds Of gold in the
Klondyke region are still further
stimulated by a report coming from
London to the effect that the PENN
sula Of Kamschatka, directly across
from Alaska, on the, Asiatic side, is
likely to prove as rich in the precious
metal as our own fields. These state
ments create a good deal of interest
especially among those who are
following closely the enormous gold
developments Of the world which have
recently occurred. An examination
Of the map Of North America will
show at glance that the great gold
field Of Alaska which is now being
developed is part Of the same general
line of mountains which supplied the
enormous gold production Of California
indeed Of the same general line which
produced the gold of Peru, Of Central
America, Of the United States, and
now Of Alaska. Take your map of
the world and follow this mountain
range, and you will find that it seems
to cross from the North American
continent to Asia at the Behring
Straits, and that the extension of this
general range across into Asia covers
the very country into which the
Russian government is now pressing
gold developments and the general
search for gold. The dispatch
referred to above states that Russian
expedition has discovered twelve gold
regions in the vicinity of the sea of
OkhOtsk, and it believes that the
western Peninsula of Kamschatka will
develop gold fields which will, as the
dispatch puts it, when opened, "be a
second California;"

D :ceiving the People Again.

1t seems hard to understand why such
newspapers, as the "World," "Times,"
"Herald," and Evening POST" all of
New York, should use their columns for
the purpose of deceiving the people on
the tariff question.
The election Of Grover Cleveland in
1892, and an administration in favor Of
repeating the Mckinley Tariff, we're
brought about through the agencies of
such newspapers. The people were
made to think that the Mckinley
Tariff was great tax that was robbing
the people of this country. During the
decade from 1880 to 80 the manufactured
products fthis country almost doubled,
and they far surpassed those of any
nation in the world. Our manufactured
products in 1890 were estimated to be
over s., 100000 more than those Of Great
Britain. The industries in all parts of
the country were active, labor was well
employed, the prices Of all products
were remunerative, the Government
was rapidly paying off its public debt,
and at the same time paid larger eXpen-
ses in the way Of pensions, ETC., than it
ever had done in any period of its his
tory. Immediately after the election
of 1892, confidence was destroyed, men
who had money locked it up instead of
putting it into business; the receipts
of the Government were reduced below
its expenses, the public debt was in
creased over 1852, 100000 and wide
spread bankruptcy prevailed through
out the country.
The people in 1894, '95, '96 began to
retrieve their mistake and repudiated
at the polls the policy of Mr.. Cleveland
and his party After the election of
1896 these newspapers began their work
of deceiving the people again. They
are now denouncing the Dingley bill as
robber Tariff, as they did the Nc
Kinley bill. What the country needs
is Protection to It's Industries, and that
it must have before business prosperity
is restored. The ''World" in its issue
of June 80, said:
With low taxes throughout the
country, the honesty of our currency
insured for another Presidential term,
and the prospect of good crops, there
would have been the beginning Of a
business revival four months ago if Con-
gress had passed simple revenue
measure to cover the deficiency and
adjourned.
Now if the "World" and other papers
holding such opinions think simple
revenue measure without regard to Pro-
lection will restore prosperity they are
greatly mistaken. It is not deficiency
III the national revenue that is causing
these hard times. It is the deficiency
IN the revenue of the individual, caused
by passing bill reducing the Tariff and
taking from our people the opportunity
to sell their labor and earn living. II
this Dingley Tariff bill could have been
passed when the extra session was first
called, business prosperity would have
revived Immediately.
The "World" says: "The country can
prosper as it has prospered under high
Tariffs and low Tariffs" butt must be
remembered that we have not had a
low Tariff, since 1860, until tie German
bill was passed, and that the rate OF
wages now paid in this country was
more than doubled by the war, and Is
from two to ten times that of foreign

The st. Louis convention which met
and adjourned over a year ago declared
in its platform that the civil service
law was placed on the statute books
by the Republican party and that the
party renewed its repeated declara-
ton that it should be thoroughly and
honestly enforced and extended where
ever practicable" President Mckinley
evidently took this platform and the
seven million people who supported it
at their word, and because Of this
declaration took the first opportunity
to amend the civil service law by his
recent order, which prohibits the
removal of faithful men and women
without specific charges and an
opportunity to answer them. This
action, while it distresSes some who
had hope that positions might be
opened to them by removals, is gen
orally commended by the leading men
and newspapers Of the country.

countries.
The World" says 1.-The country can
not prosper under uncertainty" That
may be true, but all the business men
Of the country want to remove the I'M
certainty, thus knowing whether Con-
gress will pass the Dingley bill which
will protect our industries, or whether
our standard o. wages must be reduced
to correspond with that of foreign
countries. The contest is one for the
Protection of American industries and
American labor against foreign cheap
labor and its products; and, to keep
American markets for American pro-
ducts

President Mckinley is willing to
take bold stand whenever he thinks
he is right. He has taken this in
regard to certain of those consular
fees which the Cleveland administra-
tlon required to be turDetl over to the
Government. His order applied only
TO those whose salary is less than
1000 per annum, and as a result the
Democratic croakers, who hoped for an
opportunity to attack the President
on the ground that he Va 5 doing it for
the benefit Of those air eady receiving
large salaries, are not realizing upon
the, stock of vituperatilon,which they
had laid in, in expec tation of that
event.

The Democrats made sad mess of
their attempt to make the country
believe that the Dingley bill was ad-
yantageous to the sugar trust. They
recognized the fact the Wilson law
had given the trust great advantages
and were anxious to put like odium
upon the Dingley bill, but the an
alysis of the effect Of the new tariff
law shows that their assertions were
absolutely false, and that the measure
is an extremely unsatisfactory one to
the trust.

1t must be discouraging to those
who have been insisting that the free
coinage Of silver at a false ratio is the
only hope for business prosperity to
find that nature is cooperating with
those other elements which they in
sisted were banded against their
theory, and is now supplying not only
plentiful crops at profitable prices, but
producing an enormously increased
quantity of gold from new mines as
we'll as old ones in every part of the

The drop Of nearly nine cents in
the value of the silver put into a dol

The Treasury receipts during the
first few months Of the operations of
the Dingley law will probably be
light because of the enormous quaint

months in which the Democrats and

the Senate.

Those who had hoped to be able to
