Butterworth Changes Ills rIlnd.

During the recent campaign OK
Congressman Ben Butterworth of
Ohio was an ardent and earnest sup
porter Of Mckinley and the gold
standard. That a change has come
over him is shown by the following,
taken from an interview recently
given to Cincinnati paper:
Whether it will come as actual
free coinage of silver is yet problem
atical. 1t must come in some such
way, however. The promised era Of
prosperity is sadly absent. / do not
think it will come from a revision Of
the tariff to any great extent. The
only tariff laws that could do the
country any good would be only
such as would directly improve the
condition of the laboring men and
produce sufficient money to properly
conduct the affairs of the govern
meat. The idea of high protection,
1 believe, as the people know of me,
rs very bad. Under the Mckinley
bill, as 1T existed, there was q system
Of partnership between the manufac-
turer and the government, by which
great revenues were derived by ex-
tortionate taxation Of the masses.
II believe in protection when 1t
will directly improve the condition
of the workingmsn, but 1 do not
approve of what IS popularity known
as the protective system, which sim
ply robs the people in general for
the benefit of comparatively few
manufacturers. / sincerely hope
that the new tariff law to be enacted
will not be similar to the old Nc
Kinley bill"
~Do you expect swift return OF
prosperity under the new admins.
tratlonf" inquired the reporter.
II hope for the best, but the con-
.dltion of the country at the present
time is such as to cause the greatest
apprehension"

Representative Turner in hif
regular weekly letter to his town
paper In giving list Of the Phillips
county people who called at his desk
last week, for political reasons, omit.
ed to mention the editor of this paper
We, however, called upon the dis
tinguished statesman, but from the
treatment we received, it will be g
long time before we do go again
This is fair sample of the calibre Of
Phillips county's representative" p
Dispatch.
Next time Brother Royce goes ia
Topeka we hope Charlie Turner will
not fail to mention" him in his letters
to his home paper It seems to us
that Turner exercised just about the
right spirit. Ever since the election
the Dispatch man has been barking
at the heels of Turner who probably
does not feel just as friendly towards
the editor as he does toward some
others. The writer called on Mr.. T.
on the same day and was given the
most kind and gentlemsnly treatment.

PUSH the Bills.

We hope the legislature will push
the most important measures now be-
fore il, and pass them. The railroad
stock yards, insurance, and school
books bills are the main ones. II the
republican minority offer opposition
that would be fatal to these bills,
the rules should and must be chang
ed, 30 that the majority can rule.
1t is said that congress will meet in
special session next March. The re-
publicans will have very scant ma
iority in the senate, and if they pass
any tariff Legislation will be com
PEELED to apply the same rule to
their opponents as we want the
Kansas house and senate to force
upon the republican members. The
party in power should pass the laws
it promised the people.

Ar the meeting Of the house bank
ing and currency committee, Mr.
Oalderhead of Kansas, a pronounced
gold standard Republican, spoke
against the bill to incorporate the In
ternatlonal American bank with Cor
nelius Bliss, Andrew Carnegie, p, d.
Armour, and ten other mlllionsires as
incorporstors, eight branch banks to
be established in other countries.
Among other things, Mr.. Calder
head said:
"The whole United States is in a
condition of unrest. The under half
of the country believes that it is in
jured, and injured largely by the
power Of aggregated wealth They
believe 1t to such an extent that large
areas Of the country need nothing but
a leader Of ability to give us an insur.
rection. That is the truth, and that
is the political storm that will follow
any attempt, direct or indirect, to IN
corporate the men named here into a
private bank, with a capital of mil
lions Of dollars, and the plea that it is
done for the benefit of international
commerce will not answer that mob
for mob it is-which only needs a
commanding general to lead it.
IF the leader should happen to
have the military instinct, it would
mean civil war"
This speech was taken as warning
to the east, and was marveled at the
more because Of the speakers politics,
and there was a sensation in the COM
mittee room.

SUPERINTENDENT STRIKER will prob
ably select the following dates for the
beginning Of the several sets Of nor
NAL institutes next summer: June 7,
June IA, July 5, and August 2 1t is
possible, bat not likely, that later a
change may be made in these dates.
He has been asked by the N. e. A.
officials to allow no institutes to con-
Aict with the meeting at Milwaukee,
but he thinks it unnecessary to
change the date of the institutes
which are to begin on July 5, for
the reason that conductors, instruct
ors aud superintendent who may
desire to attend the N. e. A. meeting
can easily select Ole of the other
dates for the opening Of their insti-
tutes. School Journal.

Thev Promised Zoo Much.

A Vermont merchant in CONVERSE
ton with Editor Felt of the Atcbison
Champion (Rep) says;
"We promised too much, expected
too much from the election of Nc
Kinley. We promised that as soon
as it was known that Mckinley was
elected and that the gold standard
would be permanently established,
that hard times would disappear,
prices would advance, mercantile
failures would cease, the mills and
factories would open and general
wave Of prosperity would overtske
the country. And we were sincere
in that belief We talked it 50 loud
and ardently that We not only thor
oughly believed 1t ourselves, but it
became an infection which pervaded
the business and political atmosphere
of Vermont and all New England
until il became common for our peo-
pie to look upon a man who opposed
the gold standard as lunstic, If not
a repudiationlst and thief.
"The awakening has been terrible
For thirty days after the election our
newspapers we're full of lists of fac
tories and mills opened and men
given employment. We made ter
ribly earnest effort to boom things
and restore confidence, but the boom
would not float and the confidence
would not stay restored. Ia our
region the failures have increased,
prices have not advanced, factories
are closed, men are out of employ
ment, the sunshine of prosperity is
yet hidden behind the bleak clouds
Of adversely, and the mutterings of
discomfort have taken the place Of
the huzzas of iubilant republican
professions"

or $500, in case of disability, or 500
a year after the age of seventy. All
payments are charged against the

United states in the year 1886 was s47.-

United States In the year 1856 was $47.-
100000. its actual gold coinage, includ-
ing bullion produced outside Of the
country, was $6O,0OO,0OO. No accurate
account has been, or can be In the ma
ture Of things, kept Of the amount Of
precious metals consumed in the arts
and industries. yThe tables of Soet-
beer. which are statistical authority all
over the world, estimate the average
use of gold in fehe arts during the period
from 1871 to 1ss0Iat $55,6oo.0oo for the
whole world, of which ss,ooo.ooo was so
consumed in the United States.
For absolutely official figures, we turn
to the report, Of the director Of the
mint. The latest. accessible gives the
statistics for ufhe year 1894. The coin
age Of gold afithe mints Of the United
States in thatoyear was $685. ,16O. The
same report states that there was con-
sumed in the United States in the same
year in the industrial arts gold to the
value Of $1O,65S, ,694 OF course this
amount is outside of the coinage and
in addition to it. So that reference to
the official figures shows that this coun-
try produces. in coin actually issued
from It's mints, far more gold alone
per annum than the $5O,000,000 assumed
to be necessary to keep pace with in
crease of population.
