New YOrk's Supremacy,

New York is now the CONNIE cial and
financial metropolis OF the world-th the
supreme city in all that goes to make
cities great in the world sense of that
term.
The scepter which London has so long
held has been transferred. The primacy
has passed to the American metropolis.
The clearing. g.house transa ctlons of
New York for this year have exceeded
those of London by nearly 100000, and
the volume Of commerce in and out of
this port has exceeded that ofLondon by
100000.
1t is tor our legislature to take care
that this supremacy, once secured, shall
never again be relinqulshed by the en-
pire city of the Empire state. 1t is ours
now to rule in commerce and finance if
our law. givers are wise enough 10 have
it so.
AS to population, that is a secondary
consideration, but even as TO that, if
New York's commercial interests are
properly guarded we shall not be long in
passing our only rival on earth-London.
1t is no wonder that British sentiment
seeks alliance with republic that has in
little more than a cepturY achieved a
greatness So stupendous.-New York

Uncle Horace on IS to |.

Ex-Governor Horace Boies Is not to
be dissuaded from bis distrust Of the
heaven born ratio Of 16 to / by the
prefer Of . congressional nomination.
He therefore declines it in letter in
which, after stating the grounds Of
his opposition to the single gold
standard, he goes on to say.
As serious as these objections seem to me,
cannot bring my own mind to believe that
the remedy for existing evils Is the free coin
age Of the money metals at the fxed ratio Of
IS to 1. cannot help the fear that this
would lead to even greater evils than those
from which the country already suffers,
There Is no reasoning can adopt which sat.
isfes my own mind that the free coinage Of
these metals at that ratio, by this country
alone, would Instantly double the CONNER
cial value OF all the silver In the world; and
know II 1t failed to do this, not grain Of
gold would seek our minis for coinage, and
not dollar OF gold coin would be used as
money for any purpose whatever.
Now, II Uncle Horace will only come
round and give in his adherence to
the homely old doctrine that II two
men ride q horse one must needs sit
astride the crupper, we will acknowl-
edge that bis financial views are as
good as gold.

etryker's Smart Scheme.

In about six weeks will be held q
teachers examination and State Sup
erintsndent Stryker announces with
glee that he will make it so hard that
mighty few can pass it and secure q
certificate. This is Stryker's method
OF compelling teachers to attend the
county normal In order to get q IL
cense for next winters job. Many Of
the teachers will be compelled to bor-
row money to attend the normal but
il they expect to follow the occupa-
ton, they must attend.
The candidates in the April exami-
nation are composed largely, in this
county at least, Of farmers boys and
girls, who hope to pass muster after
putting in faithful winters work at
their studies. The boys cannot come
to the normal on account of the work
and many Of the farmers can't see
their way even to send their daugh-
tiers. II they can get certificate in
April they stand a chance to get a
school the coming year.
But Stryker has put his foot on this
idea and proposes to shut them out
The injustice Of this is plain yet Stry-
ker chuckles to 9 reporter that the
farmers girls and boys will swear
when they hear Of bis scheme to head
them of. The swearing will prob.
ably not be confined to the young
people but the head Of the family will
likely 60 around behind the barn and

Executive Committees. "

The Kansas City Tribune has some
remarks entirely to the point when 1t
says:
The state central committee as now
constituted consists Of one member
from each judicial district-plenty
large enough-selected by the district,
presumably, because Of bis especial
fitness for the position. These are
the men to whom the party delegates
the management Of its affairs and
there should be no attempt to run in
anyone else. That such q course is
Necessary to secure best results in the
campaign is fully disproved by the
results Of the last. The trouble with
the thing is that men are often select
ed for personal reasons who have been
turned down in their own districts.
Another trouble is that it makes
the chairman well-nigh absolutely
powerful. He can appoint his sup
porters on the executive" committee
and hold balance OF power thereby
debating the entire movement Of
affairs. The party at large has no
interest in the executive committee. II
one there be, it is to serve merely for
the campaign and should have no voice
in matters which like the selection OF
convention places and dates properly
belong to the people Of the State
through their directly selected repre-
sentatives.
