"For my part, do not ask any IN
reference on the part Of governments
except to undo the wrong it has done.
| do not ask for the prosperity born
of paper. But do ask for the remone-
tization of silver. Silver was demone-
tized by fraud. 1t was an imposition
upon every honest man, a fraud upon
every honest debtor in the United
States. 1t assassinated labor. 1t was
done in the interest of avarice and
greed, and should be undone by hon
est men.
81 am in favor Of double standard,
because this is the greatest silver-pro-
ducing country on the earth. We want
a national money"

future OF American Export Trade.

Manchester, N. H., Union; Two
causes at least are likely to operate
against a continued increase in our
manufactured exports for the present,
especially in those classes of goods
(which go to individual consumers.
These causes are the failure of crops
in other countries and the spirit OF re-
faliation that comes from the feeling
that foreign products have been unrea-
sonably Disseminated against IN the
DIngley tariff act.

To tho Point,

M. Wolowski, before a French mon
etary convention in 1869, said:
The sum total of the precious metals
is reckoned at fifty millions, one-half
gold and one-half silver If, by stroke
of the pen, they suppress one of these
metals in the monetary service, they
double the demand for the other metz ..
to the ruin of all debtors.

Tho Great Man.

What I must do is all that concerns
me, not what the people think. 1t is
easy In the world to look after tie
worlds opinion; 1t is easy in solitude
to live after our own; but the great
man is he who In the midst of the
crowd keeps with perfect sweetness
the independence Of solitude. -Eme~,

The Dangerous Classes.

The majority of our students, even
at maturity, are distressingly lacking
in moral enthusiasm. They undaly
,rjze money, fame and success. They
are at peace with the world. Their
sense of justice Is lax. Great prin-
eiples and great causes fsil to appeal
tn them strongly. To sum up: they
know too little; they TANK too little
and they care too littl, about highest
things-President Andrews, in Cosmo-
politan.

John q. Carlisle In 1878.

The conspiracy which seems to have
been formed here and in Europe to de-
stroy by legislation and otherwise from
three-sevenths to one-half Of the me-
tallic money of the world is the most
gigantic crime of this or any other age.
The contamination Of such a scheme
would ultimately entail more misery
upon the human race than all the wars,
pestilences and famines that ever oc-
Cured in the history Of the world.
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1897-11-26

Fight on, thou brave, true hearts,
and falter not, through dark fortune
and through bright. The cause thou
fightest for, so far as it is true, no
farther, yet precisely so far. is very
sure of victory. The falsehood alone
of it will be conquered, will be abol-
ished, as it ought to be, but the truth
of it is part of natures own laws, Co
operates with the worlds eternal ten
doncies, and cannot be conquered

So 1t Was.

1t was good thing for Patrick
Henry that he lived during the last
century, for if he was alive to-day and
made, a speech in Virginia like the one
that made him famous, some little cor

with an Injunction and probably send
him to jail tn ';oot.-TacCna Sun.

PROSPERITY STRIKING IN.

Bradstreet's: while the general
trade movement is somewhat irregular
and there are further evidences OF
falling off in demand and volume, bus
mess continues of large proportions.
Speculation in wool has ceased and de-
mand for the staple is less than for
weeks past. Cotton goods are dull on
the weakness of raw cotton, and job
bers report dry goods slower than a
week ago. Interior merchants in the
central West have not distributed fall
stocks as promptly as expected, and
many jobbers at Western centers find
that they overestimated the consump-
tive demand when securing fall
goods"
r. G. Dun C Co.: after the heaviest
buying known in many branches in
September ii was natural and desirable
that more quiet period should give
time for testing the size and temper
of the retail trade and for distributing
part of the enormous quantities
bought. In textile goods the rush OF
orders went far beyond all distributive
demand in August and prevented great
replenishment of stocks and the SIM
liar rush for goods has been CORE
spondingly great in other lines during
the past two months. In iron and steel
and in boots and shoes there was ac-
tual danger of speculative imitation
Of prices, such as was seen in 1898,
but it has been avoided apparently for
this season by the solid sense of lead
ing business men, who regard time OF
comparative quiet as essential to the
coming and permancnce of prosperity
in their lines. AS the buying for re-
Punishment is partially satisfied and
diminishes there is some decrease IN
the volume of transactions"
Wilson Bros, wholesale and retail
jewellers of Boston, have made an as
signment. No statement of the liabil-
tiles and assets have been given out,
but the former are said to be in the
ighborhood of $4,000.

The assets of the association are $751;

same.
Deputy Acknowledgement Reeder, at
Harrisburg Pa, applied to the court
for a receiver for the Iron City Fire

amount of 100000 have been entered
against the company.

Il believe the struggle now going on
In this country and in other countries

successful, produce widespread disaster
in the end throughout the commercial

money and establishing gold as the sole

ormously enhanced in value, and would
gain disproportionate and unfair adj

Il believe gold and silver to be the
money of the constitution, indeed, the
money Of the American people anterior
to the constitution, which that great
organic law recognized as quite indie
pendent of its own existence. No pow
er was conferred on congress to declare
that either metal should not be money.
Congress has, therefore, in my judg-
ment, no power to demonetize silver
any more than to demonetize gold; no
power to demonetize either than to
demonetize both.
IF silver has been demonetized /
am in favor of remonetizing it. If its
coinage has been prohibited, am in
favor of ordering it to be resumed. If
it has been restricted, am in favor OF
having it enlarged" (S7S.)

Fighting BIueiacketS.

There came near being serious trou-
BILE between the police and men from
the Marion and Philadelphia last
night. A gang of about 40 bluejackets
were talking over the recent gig race
in front of ore of the saloons on Fort
street, when Officer Opunui walked up
and asked them to stop making so
much noise Thev refused 70 ohev, ond
the policeman grabbed one of the men.
This was a signal for a general at
tack upon Opunui, who was soon
joined by Espinda and other officers.
The man wanted was captured and
taken down.
At the police station the man gave
his name and was locked up. In the
meantime crowd of about so blue
Jackets were clamoring on the outside.
Lieutenant Wells and a number of po-
licemen jumped on their horses and
started to clear the road. One of the
blueiackets broke part of the fence op-
posite and struck Bohleman heavy
blow and then ran toward the water
front. Espinda caught him, and the
other bluejackets were dispersed.

ceeded without their aid. and when by that
aid they did succeed they became at once
bound to consider their Invaluable allies in
whatever course IN the matter of legislation
they might map out. Instead of that, In
preparing the Dingiey bill they have not
only ignored their allies but actually placed
them In a position Of insupportable embar-
rassment.
The republican reply to this arraignment
Is certainly logical. and it seems to be suf
fcient. The republicans by no means con-
cede that their success at the polls was due
to democratic assistance. They express ap-
probation of the assistance they received.
but instead of acknowledging their allies as
their saviors they look upon them as men
to whom they have given shelter in great
stress of circumstances. The gold demo-
Gratis last year abandoned their home.
They declared themselves unable longer to
live there under the new regulations that
lad been prescribed They became. for the
time, wanderers. Some of them repaired to
the republican roof and were admitted.
They remained there while the storm ragged.
without suggestion of any kind as to the
premises.
But now the republicans are asked to re-
model their premises. These guests-taken
in, as the republicans claim. out of the
wet-are no longer satisfied with their lodg-
ings or their entertainment. They want the
establishment changed to suit their tastes.
and then run according to their sugges-
lions.
1t is very unlikely that this will be done.
Put in their own phrase it may be said
hat the sound money democrats last year
made a choice of evils. They were opposed
alike to protection and to free silver. They
virtually chose protection And protection
1t is, both for them and for the country.
Does free silver now appear to them as the
lesser of the two evils?
