Gold Standard the Cause.

"a good New Years resolution for

in all the factories of New England. The
demonstration of silver and the con-
sequent appreciation of gold, which

THE WHITE PINE NEWS.
Saturday, January, Is, 1898.

To those who have been claiming
for Mckinley and the Republican finan-
cial policy the credit for the increased
prosperity of the United States during
the past few months, we wish to call
attention to the record of bank clear
ings for tho past week as compiled by
Bradstreet. While the increase over
the same week Of last year in the United
States outside of New York City was ID
per cent, there was a corresponding IN
crease In the Dominion of Canada of 1872
nor cent. As this is not an unusual
state of affairs, the figures having stood
approximately the same for several
months. it Is evident that the same
wave of prosperity that has swept this
country has had an equal effect on the
other side of the border. In view OF
the proximity and similarity of the two
countries, we must look for cause for
this condition which would operate
equally on both sides of the border.
We surely cannot find II in the restora'
ton OF confidence or the operation oil
the Dingley law; for the Canadians new
or lost their nerve and the Dingley Law
has been.hostile, rather than favorable
TO their interests. A review OF the sit
uatiOn can lead us to but one conclusion
and that is that the great increase II
the trade of both countries Is the resul
OF large grain crops, accompanied b!
good prices owing to the shortage
abroad. When we look at the RECORD
OF bank clearings more carefully, w
find that the greatest gains have beef
made in the cities of our great North
west:,e. g., Chicago gained 1914 PEE
cent over the same week OF last year
Minneapolis, Al. 8 per cent; Seattle, 1O3.'
per cent; Sioux City, 104.S per cent
and Sioux Falls, 1914 per cent. TIL
ability Of the farmers to pay their debt
and buy the comforts of life has beer
increased, thus causing corresponding
stimulus to other channels of trade II
all parts OF the country. The fact tina
the change In the tariff has failed a
prosperity producer is very eviden
in the case of cotton manufactures, OF
which the duty is almost prohibitive
The bank clearings OF Fall River ant
New Bedford, which contain the larges
cotton mills in the country, have fallei
20.9 and 49, per cent respectively TO
the same week as those mentioned
above. Not more protection but NOR
people able to buy their products
what our manufacturers need.

Postage Stamps.

The design of the stamp is engraved
on steel, and in printing, plates are
used ON which 200 stamps have been
engraved Two men are kept busy at
work covering these with eolored inks,
and passing them to a man and 4 girl
who are equally busy printing them
with large rolling hand presses. Three
of these little squads are employed all
the time. After the small sheets Of
paper containing 200 printed stamps
have dried enough they are sent into
the other room and gummcd The
gum made for the purpose IS a peculiar
composition, made of the powder of
dried potatoes and other vegetables
mixed with water. After having again
been dried-this time on little racks
famed by steampower-for about an
hour they are very carefully put be-
tween sheets of paste-board and pressed
in hydraulic presses capable of apply
ing a weight of 2000 tons. The next
thing is to cut the sheets in two, each
sheet, OF course, when cut, containing
100 stamps. This is done by girl
with a large pair of shears, cuttin g by
hand being preferred to that by machin-
cry, which would destroy too many
stamps. They are then passed on to
another squad Of workers, who perfo-
rate the paper between the stamps.
Next they are pressed once more and
then packed and labeled and slowed
away, to be sent to various offices when
ordered. II single stamp is torn OF
in any way mutilated, the whole sheet
of 200 stamps is burned. No less than
80, 900 are said to be burned every week
for this cause. The greatest care II
taken in counting the sheets OF stamps
to guard against pilfering by the EN-
ployees. Ashton Record.

The editor of the Genoa Courier has
lost either his nerve or his integrity. He
has either been borght up by the Gard
nerville lynchers and their friends or
has yielded to their threats of personal
violence and a boycott against his pa
per. The issue of the 18th, is filled with
good words and excuses for the county
officers who instead of enforcing the
laws have either allotted or shielded
the ruffins who lynched Adam Uber.
This change in the attitude of the pa

nor for its readers, amajority of whom,

In regard to the jumping of mining
claims upon which assessment work has
not been performed, there are many
who think that he who gets on the
ground the nearest after midnight New
Year morning can legally hold it against
all corners, but such is not the case.
The Supreme Court OF Colorado de.
cided some years ago that If a claimant
was ON the ground at reasonable hour
on New Year morning, prepared to per.
form his annual assessment work for
the previous year, and continued such
work until properly completed, he can
hold the claim no matter how many
location notices had been placed on it
during the night by other parties, and
the U. S. Supreme Court sustained the
decision.

ARCH THE STATES.

Forming the great entrance to the
rrans-Mississippi and International Ex-
position grounds at Omaha, Nebraska
which will be opened from June to No
yember, 1898, and to remain after the
magnificent buildings now being erected
have disappeared, is the Arch of States,
built of massive masonry and comment
orative of the unison OF the States in
Trans-Mlssissippi region. In harmony
with the idea, an invitation has been
issued by Governor Silas A. Holcomb of
Nebraska to all of the executives Of the
States named, asking them to contrib
ute one course of stone from the quar-
ries of their respective States. The
foundation layer will be composed of
Nebraska stone of enduring quality and
on this the courses contributed by the
different States will be laid in symmet-
rical order. The form of the structure
Is that of a triumphal arch, fifty feet
high, twenty-five feet deep, and sixty
eight feet 30 the top OF its parapet. The
opening in the arch is twenty feet wide
and thirty-five feet high to the key
stone. Strong, simple abutments ON
either side assist the arch to carry an
extremely rich and broad frieze of
double arcade of twenty -four arches,
containing shields decorated in color
with the coats of arms of the Trans
Mississippi States. Upon the opposite
side the frieze is repeated and the coats
of arms of the remaining States of the
Union are displayed at the ends. The
approximate coast of construction, ma
terial and ornaments is about $40 600.

Our worthy Senator, Mr.. Stewart,
has such discerning sense for the evils
being wrought upon the people of the
world by the money power and the cor
porations, that it seems to us little
queer that he has not turned his belli-
cose oratory against that corporation
which is sapping the life blood out OF
the industries of the State which he
represents. A little less talk about the
Rothschilds and little more about the
Central Pacific would suit the people of
Nevada just as well and perhaps little
better.
