Wall street, according to the New
York correspondent Of . Republican con.
temporary, is confidently looking forward
to another issue Of gold bonds. The be-
ginning Of the outflow Of gold is said TO
be regarded ss an assault upon the free
gold Of the country which threatens to
deplese the supply.
In view Of the fact that the victory Of
the gold standard and the restoration of
confidence were held up as the safeguards
against the depletion Of the treasury and
in view Of the fact that the surplus in the
gold reserve is now owe $4,000. 600
above the safety mark. this furry would
seem strange. were il not that imbedded
in the middle Of the scare news is the
statement that the only thing TO save the
country from . bond sale 10 the rapid
passage Of the Dingley bill.
This intimstion that the tariff bill will
check the outflow Of gold, allay the ris-
ing panic and circumvent the schemes OF
the bond Shylocks clarifies the atmos-
phere and enables the reader to see
clearly why Wall street is sgitated.
Wall street has . happy knack Of being
sgitated whenever it suits SONG powerful
persons to have it sgitated. just now
the tariff b~arons, the trust msgnates and
their political henchmen are anxious TO
overcome the tide of opposition to the
Dingley iniquity and the simplest way lie
to get up a scare over . deficiency, the
outflow Of gold and the danger Of a bond
issue.
The Republican leaders hope that the
country will bend its neck to the 'protec.
ton yoke and cheerfully bear the heavy
burden Of taxation fixed up by the back
ers Of the g. o. p. The bond bugaboo is
to be trotted out to do service for the
bounty grabbers.

A FALSE SHOWING.

In the San Francisco Chronicle Of May

contributes an article to that journal in
which he directs attention to the under
valuation Of the silver product Of the
State OF California ss shown in the report
Of Charles @. Yale, ststistician Of the
United States Mint, for the year 1886.
The report OF this gold bug statistician is
filed with most ~egregious errors, o. the
correspondent clearly shows. regarding
The silver output Of the mines Of the
Golden State. For instance, twelve gold.
producing counties are not credited with
yielding . dollars worth Of silver during
the year 1896. and yet n Of them. Trim

81, 1896, $50 30 in gold, being the fifth in

the fact that al native gold carries with II

are Yale 10 either . fool or Q knave-possi.
