Mrs. Mckinley holding closely ON his

Consequently that equipage occupied
by the president-elect was nearly at its
destination before the last of the car

the party drove off, the peopl kAoutside
set up cheer in which the, hioans,
members of Troop A, Nation1I Guard,

Along Pennsylvania avenue, upon
which the carriages were driven, there
were so many vehicles, pedestrians and
bicycles and street fakirs and so much
confusion in general, that the presi.
dent-elect passed along as fast as the
conditions permitted without gaining
general recognition. At the Ebbitt
house, the crowd had been gathering
since early breakfast time, preempting
doorways, carriage steps, windows and
other points of vantage. During the
hour and half while they waited, a

Socialism AS Applied to Insurance.

We passed law at Tope ka last winter to pre-
vent the formation of trusts, and another espec-
tally for the insurance trust. So tar the trusts
have kept right on doing business at their old

Is it can be done. To forbid combination is to
bid economy and decree that business shall

The Fiat of It.

1t is becoming fad with some newspapers
to refer contemptuously to the silver dollar as
the "Bryan dollar" and they appear to be
pleased with the price of the silver money t. go
down in the market. Such newspapers either
lack in knowlege of conditions or they fail to
appreciate the consequences Of slnmp in sill
yer. The silver dollar is by no means ''Bry-
an dollar" Bryan had nothing to do with its
creation. The United States has 44o, 900, 900
silver dollars in circulation. No matter what
their bullion value, the faith of the government
is pledged to make every silver dollar as gsod
as a gold dollar, and the world accepts the
pledge. AThe bullion value of silver dollar

to-day is about forty-one cents; there is, there
fore, about ffty-nine cents of fiat. The loss of
faith by single foreign government might pre-
cipitate crisis and result in the loss of many
millions of dollars to this country 1t Therefore
behooves newspapers to exercise caution in ref
erence TO silver and not permit the joy of be-
their Judgment. If silver bullion would go
up in value so as to make I6 to 1 true ratio,
the country would be better off and Bryanites

One hardly credit the testimony of his
own eyes when he reads the following dispatch
Chattanooga, Tenn, Aug 28.-U. S. Circuit
Judge Clark rendered decision which will
cause CONSERVATION among tax collectors and
lawyers. In the case of A. M. Blakely VS.. the
Tennessee River Transportation company, on
question of tax foreclosure, the Judge decided
that a mortgage claim involved and establish
ed the principle that mortgage claims should
always have precedence over tax claims. If the
decision is upheld by the supreme court, it will
mean the loss of thousands of dollars to cities,
counties and states in taxes.
This goes little farther in the interests of
plufocracy than any former decision of our pros
titrted courts. The claim of all the people
against property, for the cost of the protection
and social order without which the property
would be valueless, would be valueess, is to be
subordnated to the claim of the money king
If this decision stands, it will revolutonize our
government. If the man who has a mortgage
on farm can proceed to sell it, pocket the
money and let the county and state whistle for
their claims, plutocrucv certainly will have
done its perfect work. We shall then have
government of capitalits by capitalists and for
capitalsts-and, in the classic language of old
Vanderbilt, "the people be d-."-Star and
kansan.
THE Dngley tariff bill is now the law of the
land. In our judgment, it is the most infamous
piece of class-legislation ever put upon the
statute books. Under the pretence of raising
revenue for the support of the government, it
legislates money out of the pockets of the
masses, and transfers it to the pockets of the
favored few. 1t consecrates the doctrine that
the protected industries must be fed and fatteu-
ed at the expence of people in order that Re-
publican and Democratic milionares may have
marble palaces to live i'll, regal yachts to sail
in, and cash with which to hire European dukes
to marry their daughters al Watson,

Peru Has Fallen.

The latest news from Peru indicates that the
conquest of that country by the gold power is
about completed. The process has not been
bloody one, as was that other conquest by Pi-
zarro, bit the suffering entaled on the survivors
of Spanish cruelty were probably greater
than those shout to be visited upon the land of
the Incas.
Peru is about to adopt the gold standard. In
the meantime-this dispatch making the an
nouncement states-business is practically at
stanstil and the markets are in state of panic.
Having so recently passed through the ordeal,
the people of this country have some concep-
tion of what going on gold basis means.
They have not forgotten 1893 nor will they soon.

Future of Wheat.

The suddenly violent collapse of the wheat
boom suggests the thought that the prosperity
prophets may have gone too far in advance of
the procession. If there was any valid and
substantial reason why wheat should pass the
dollar mark in Chicago, it exists just as potent
ly to-day as it did last week. The situation has
not changed. There is no more wheat in the
world The shortage i'll Europe upon which
the rapid rise was supposed rest still exists,
so that if the high figure attained rested upon
Legitimate demand, there need be no fear that
last weeks prices will not again prevail.
The report has been sent out that the fall
was occasioned by desire OF the holders of a
large AMOUNT of wheat to take out the profits on
their holdings. TO do this, they sold at the
high figure prevailing last Saturday, and thus
Cverstocked the market. In substantiation of
this view, it is pointed out that the price in
Europe held up in remarkable manner.
1t is notable in this connection that, while
all cereals declined, the price of every stock on
the list advanced. Mr.. Henry Clews, in MS
latest financial circular, calls attention to this
phase or the speculative market in these words:
"The partial reaction in the stock market
during the week has not been entirely unnatlr-
al. 1t had been preceded by a large advance
covering an unprecedented range of issues.
Operators were therefore carrying an amount Of
stocks far in excess of anything experienced
for many years pasta condition which tended
to expose holders to attack The bears, af
ter long abstinence, were hungering for
meal, and not few bulls were willing to take
their handsome profits, while others who had
already done were quite willing to see, if not
help, reaction. AT the same time, there is a
class of conservative bulls who, while belev-
ing that the market is destined for greater
rise, yet expect it to step by step and
through a course of frequent cautious reaiz-
ings. This class have some influence upon
Wall street opinion, and they are likely to set
an effective precedent of taking fair profits,
which will have its result in chastening an
over-sanguine temper.
"Another factor which tends to encourage
these frequent realizings comes from the great
breadth of the market. With such an enlarg-
ed assortment of issues as the list now presents,
there are always stocks which have not had the
average rise; and, when prices weaken, those
who have profits on their holdings are ready to
take them and buy these neglected shares. In
brief, it seems to be rule i'll stock operations
that when the market is broad one, prices
advance more by zigzag movement than in
continuout straight line
What is here said OF stocks is probably
equally true of staple farm products. In the
mean time, those who show a disposition to
rush matters are likely to get into difficulties.

Sometimes he is large and inclined to be

on earth but his owner, who is somewhere
in the congregation looking as If he never

big dog that wants to be friendly and
doesn't care who he is friendly with--his
soul is full of charity and lovo for all
men; and the nervous dog that trots
around all the time and seems to have
something on his mind: and the little
s!ick-looking dog that howls If touched,
yet insists upon going from one end of
the church to the other under the seats,

pie uncomfortable generally. How much
better would it be if about one minute
were to be taken before leaving home and
the dog that goes to our church left be-

strange that they cannot see that When
