COMMENT AND OPINION.

OThe democratic party has been
committed since 1896 to what is in eff
feet general war on wealth and bust
ness.-N. Y. Sun (Dem.).
0The free trade senator's should hur-
ry off to some vacation wilderness as a
relief from their present sense of lone
liness.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
GA tariff that opens workshops and
gives a million idle men constant work
is kind of "a robber tax" that the peo-
pie will like.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
DIf Bryan were president now he
would probably call congress in special
session to make law forbidding Ameri-
cans to go to Alaska and mine more
gold.-Buffalo Express.
OMr. Bryan might give his theories
flavor of current interest by predict
ing that among the gold-worshipers
who are Fastening to Alaska there will
be at least 10 disappointments to one
success.-Washingto Star.
DMrs. Lease, Tom Watson and Debs
have deserted the Bryan banner. The
first thing the boy knows, IL this sort
of thing keeps on, he will awake to the
startling fact that he is in decent COM
pany.-Cleveland Leader.
DA democratic paper in Maryland
is at a loss to know why Mr.. Bryan is
called "a matchless leader" unless it is
because he enabled the republicans to
carry every county in that state except
four.-St. Louis be-Democrat.
DThere would have been another
slump in the silver market had silver
instead of gold been found in the Klon-
dyke region; but in order to be con-
sistent the Organizes should have re-
joiced over the prospect of cheaper
money -Chicago Tribune.

RETURNING GOOD TIMES.
Advancing Prosperity Shutting Out
Calamity CrOakers.

Advancing Prosperity Shutting On
Calamity Croakers.
A new tariff law will be in operation
within very few days. Business will
then be able confidently to adjust itseli
to the new schedules, and period o.
prosperity ought gradually and sub
stantially to set in Why not?
The crops in no recent years were
ever so promising as they are to-day
reports from every section of the coun'
try show this. The yield of both CORE
and wheat will be abundant. The fruit
crop is simply enormous. In the state
of Missouri the people have never
known anything to equal it. Their
fruit crop overshadows in both size
and value their other crops. The
southern states, despite the disastrous
floods experienced last spring will
produce large yield of cotton. Prices
are good, and, what is better, are still
rising. Wheat brings paying figure
again, and cotton is profitable in
vestment both for the planter and for
the factor.
Business has for some time been inn
proving. The silver shouters, for par
tisan ends, have made a jest OF this
claim, but it Is true. Tt does not rest
upon the assertion Of politicians an
swering the silver men, but upon re-
ports of business men themselves, and
upon the observations of experienced
travellers familiar with the country and
good judges of business appearances
and conditions. These men note a ma
terial change for the better, and are
convinced that with an assured revenue
sufficient for the support of the gov
eminent, and so levied as to stimulate
industries, complete business conf
dence is reasonably certain to return
and bring back good times again.
Is 1t not better to put faith in prog
nostications from these sources than
in those from sources controlled by
politics as business? The men who
have undertaken to force this coun-
try to silver basis are not ex-
pected to concede either that times
are better, or that they can be
better short of the adoption of
their financial policy. They are not
on the lookout for prosperity. They
wouldn't know it if they were to meet
it in the road with tag on it, They
are bears in the political market. They
are engaged in concerted effort to
depress value and becloud the popular
Judgment And what is to be noted to
their discredit, some of them are grow
ing rich from the undertaking.
But good times are coming, and they
cannot be retarded by pessimists, by
spellbinders, or any other
agencies of professional agitation

ANOTHER OUTRAGE ON SILVER.
More Gold, Bountiful Crops and BOOM
Ing business.

Again does Silver, with capital S,
suffer martyrdom; once more is she the
victim of crime. Talk about the crime
of 1879" first discovered and exposed
by the senior senator from Nevada
the dark act" which the luminous in
tellect of Senator Morgan has pictured
in such somber hues! That was moth
ing in comparison with the more mon
strous crimes of to-day. Well may it
be said that horror on horrors head
accumulates when we look around and
see how the money power, that deadly
enemy of silver, is resorting to the most
infamous means to disgrace and bring
obloquy upon the pure white metal.
Not satisfied with constantly increas-
ing the output Of gold from the already
well known regions of it's production,
what does this fiendish prosecutor of
silver, this malicious conspirator against
the human race, do? 1t has actually haa
the effrontery to find another gold re-
gion of such marvellous productive
power that the price of silver has de-
clined to almost the lowest point it has
ever known. Fifty-nine cents an ounce.
and no bottom! A Accent dollar, and
no hope!
Appalling as this crime is, it brings no
blush of shame to the hardened brow of
the money power. That relentless be-
ing, like the monster of Frankenstein,
has no conscience and no moral prin-
ciple. Insulated in its desires and I'M
moved by the distress and misery of its
victim, the money power has committed
another crime. 1t has torn away and
abducted wheat, the pretended twin sis
ter of silver, from it's loved embrace.
Could anything be more monstrous?
Wheat, so long associated in the i'm
agination of the sweet singers of silver,
with their beloved idol, has been ruth
lessly snatched away, and goes soar
ing in the markets. The farmers may
smile and pay their debts in good
money, but the wind is let out of the
silver orators best argument! Could
anything be more disastrous?
Plenty of gold, and advancing prices
for bountiful crops! What are we COM
ing to when such crimes can be COM
mitted under our. very eyes? Will the
money power never let up?-Chicago
Times-Herald.

boxes go to the car load, and must Be
hurried to their destination as speedily
as possible, for there is no fruit that
loses its flavor quicker by overkeepinr

the boxes must be rapidly marketed

The Real Thing.

Business knows under what condi-
tions j. must proceed, and it will pro-
coed confidently, in harmony with the
encouraging facts and prospects all
over the country. Prosperity for all
Is here; not prosperity of mere paper
and hope, but actual, tangible, resting
on the indisputable and convincing fact
Of agricultural prosperity, without
which general prosperity in this coun-
try cannot to-day exist. The days of
croaking are past There is work to
do and money to be made by everybody
who is not loafer or an incompetent.
The people OF the United States are
going to work and to make money.
The prophets of disaster will find their
occupation gone. The politics of dis
aster will be made futile by the period
of good times which has begun. Pros
perity is hcre.-N. Y. Sun.
