There ought to be "A college in every
town in New England for the study of
the money question. While some of us
are too old TO attend college, no one is
too aged 10 study, and all should wish to
learn concerning matters that are of the
greatest Importance to them. During
political campaigns matters are discusstd d
in partisan way, but when the cam
paign Is over questions can be considered
calmly. The money question should be
so considered now. We were promised a
return of confidence and of prosperity.
but it is to be feared that those promises
partoOk somewhat of the nature of a
confidence game, in which the people
generally are permitted to have the CON
fdence and few persons the prosperity"

bonds to the wants and demands OF
American peoples apparently ap-
.acning and may be largely decided in

b of all questions at this time is our
] cy toward Cuba. This calls for at least
recognition of the beligerent rights

ted States-something that should
been done long ago, and which, if

he crisis also approaches as o the
| fl and the great question there is, at
! t so far as the farming interests of
country are concerned, whether this
'ublicap administration will give an
'quate protection on wool, the only
ilg where any important protection to
| r interests has been promised. The
bl-groN ers' association, through their
'sident, Mr.. Lawrence of Ohio, de-
I'd a tariff of about 20 cents pound
common woods, declaring that only
b a tariff as this will be of any es-
! ial help to the farmers. With some
b tariff on wool as this passed. the
ners of the country would undOubt-
y be benefited to perceptible eX-
| for its effect would be practically
reate for them a new industry. But,
PR. Lawrence shows, any much less
. fl on wool would not meet the neces-
es of the case, and any such tariff as
proposed by the senate committee,
. Pn or eight cents pound, would not
3uflicient to make wool-raising prof.
i |e, and therefore would be practically
ess. The question, then, is whether
. republican party, whose success in
. late presidential election was made
sible alone by the farmers vote, will
them to a tariff on wool high
ugh to insure certain amount of
Eperity, or not. Apparently the an
r to this question will decide perma-
tly how much of relief the farmers
he country have to expect from the
lblican party.

In the first place, corporations have no
