The Farmers Interest in Finance.

A circular has been issued from. the
OF agriculture. containing fund of
statistical information respecting the
purchasing power of the farmers
products. This compilation was made
in response to letter of instruction
under date of Nov 80. 1896, from Sec
rotary Morton. calling for a special
report which should show the popular
sources whence comes any demand for
a reconstruction OF the coinage and
monetary system of the United States
and what interests probably prompt
such. demand. Accordingly the
statistician was to collate from the last
census such facts as may serve to
bring out plainly the population. the
ligence, the manufacturing interests
and the investments in each state,
which at the recent election declared
for the free coinage of silver at IS to
1 or for the present gold standard.
1t was desired that this report should
show, what relation, if any, exists
between the prices of either of the
money metals and the price of any
farm staple, like wheat. for instance.
In the reply Kentucky is classed
with the gold standard states and
Wyoming and South Dakota with
free silver The statistics show that
while the latter, the free silver states,
had nearly twice the area of the
proportion of population was reversed.
The illiteracy of the two areas makes
an almost equally bad showing for the
free silver states, which expended S1.37
per capita for schools, whereas in the
gold standard states the expenditure
was $2.71. In the latter the value of
personal property was ST.. 1S9, S07 ,3SS; in
the former 1858 946,575. The amount
of real property, in the former S29599, =
9o,624. While IN the latter IL was W.
81, 1858, AIS. In the former the value of
the farm lands is $9,439, 35S, 1856; in the
latter $1,000, 479.17 The value of farm
products in the gold states was 81, 462, =
924,73 and in the latter 1898, 53S, 4S4.
The total amount of mortgages in the
gold states was s4,s33, 1884, 1s, and in the
silver states SLIPS. 11S,1S6. The aver
age rate of interest in the former was
$40 per cent and in the latter S.36 The
manufactured products of the gold
standard states amounted in 1890 to

the belief which has found expression
in Spain, that corruption is one of the

the lovely isle where we are fighting
for a glorious past, stalking Spain's
future, are men who make abundant,
scandalous wealth out of the nations

This sort of corruption is not a strang

kind of treachery and treason that is
basest of all but it seldom receives its
Just deserts. But possibly the in
surgents will have something to say
in reply to Weyler's boast.

Our Insane.
Illent.'

The annual report of Superintendent
Sanborn of the Maine Insane hospital
is one that is very encouraging. The
year Just passed appears to have dealt
kindly with the inmates of that instl-
tuition. No epidemic has ragged among
them, and their health in other respects
has been excellent, all things consid-
cred. No class of the infirm and sick
appeals mere strongly to human pity
than the insane. If there be chance
for recovery it is the earnest desire that
they may have it. Until within recent
wears it has been generally felt that the
most which could bedone,was toproVlde
bodily comforts for them. Now diver
sion and entertainment are found to
play an important part as remedial
agents and are certainly of great tenn
porary relief. DR.. Sanborn has done
much in this way and the results are
very gratifying. What relief those ex-
cursions to the seashore have brought
to the poor tortured, disease wracked
brains of inmates so fortunate as to be
able to take them, none but those eX-
periencing the delights from such
changes of environments could tell and
they are unable to express it. DR.. San
born's recommendations for a summer
home at the seashore and for workshop
at the hospital, are, we believe, in the
line of progress. Perhaps the time has
not arrived when the State will feel
that it is eXpedient to undertake these
measures. There are probably quite a
number of insane people in the State.

Republican State Committee of Ten

election to the governorship, in behalf
of G. n. Tillman, who, according to the

a majority of at least 1,600. There is
no moral doubt that Tennessee is Re-

whether this contest is successful or
not-and it will probably fail-it will
