PROMISES AND PIE CErsrs.

II seems to be Z fact that the
sIngle gold standard, "a a policy. Is
not realizing the expectations Of It's
friends in the matter OF improving
conditions. We were assured that
after the silver scare vas at an end
business would pick up AID activity
would be resumed in all branches Of
commerce and industry. In fact. Il
=as raid that nothing prevented a res
tOration OF rc-nal conditions except
the silver craze, xhicb, il WA alleged.
had destroyed public confidence and
created uncertainty aud disturbance.
Nobody now contends that normal
conditions have been restored or that
there Ii any prospect OF their early
restoration. Anybody xho would
make such a contention would be
compelled 10 admit that normal con-
ditions are nothing to brag about.
OF course under ordinary circum-
stances, the fair thing would be 10
wait until the new administration had
been afforded an opportunity to put
some remedial legislation on the stat.
ute book. assuming that legislation Is
a good thing for a diseased condition
Of business; but the circumstances Of
the p~ressnt ~ are not ordinary. We
were told that nothing was needed 20
restore prosperity but confidence; just
confidence, and that the only way. and
the sure way. TO create contid-nee was
10 elect Mckinley. Nothing was said
about waiting the legislation or even
for the majors inauguration; his
election waA pledged to do the bust
uess.
The Buffalo Times admits that the
election Of Mckinley did not cause
the recent bank failures and the gen.
eral assignments reported during the
past few weeks, but II insisted that
neither has his election verified in
the slightest degree the predictions
made By hA organs and their assist
tants that confidence would be at once
restored, gold would come out from
its hiding places, mills would reopen
the n OF employment would
multiply, wages would rise and peace
and plenty b" our portion evermore.-
Other papers refer TO this matter 10
fimi!ar terms, and this indicates that
general expectation banked on the
majors election as the thing that. in
realization OF earnest promses. would
create confidence and restore prosper
ity. We fancy. therefore that a vast
number Of people have by this time
reached the conclusion that it is much
easier to vote Tor a thing than to get
it after voting for It; and that there
is a great deal Of pie-crustiness about
republican campaign promises.-.
