Increase Is Substantial.

The large increase in our stock of
gold coin during the last two months
furnishes the basis of some Interesting
calculations by the New York Finan-
cier. The increase was exceptionally
large. SIS, 244, $50 during March and
S34,908, 76S in April, a total in two
months of $63. 153 ,628. AS a result of
this large increase, added to the pre-
vious increase, gold coin, which one
year ago constituted 81 per cent. of
our circulation, now constitutes 81 per
cent. Commenting on this condition,
the Financier says:
We cannot refrain from calling atten-
ton to the difference in the character OF
this increase, and that which would have
followed had the country gone on a silver
basis. Does any one imagine that our net
increase in money at the end of a given
year under free coinage would have been
as desirable as the addition Of one hun.
dred million dollars gold BOW shown, Oh
that we would have had one dollar of gold
n circulation as against over six hundred

Good for the Farmers.

Money continues to pour into the cot
fers of the farmers of the country, in
marked contrast with the low tariff
times of the past three years The
March exports of agricultural products,
including breadstuffs, cotton and pro-
visions, amounted in value to over S76,-
100000, against less than $40, 100000 in
March of last year, $40. 10000 in
March of 1896. and S37,000.oo0 in
March of 1895. And this in the face Of
the frequent reiterated assertion, made
during the consideration of the Dingley
bill, that its high rates would destroy
our markets abroad. Colorado Springs

Around the lagoon on all Of its four

Americas Good Fortune.

Outside of England Hon. Champ
Clark will find some difficulty in dis
covering any signs OF movement in the
direction of free trade, and even there
it no longer commands the general as
sent it once did. Assuming that it is
possible for the Missouri statesman to
forego the Iu1ur~ s.f talking for a few
moments longer, we would suggest that
he night find profit in rejecting that
had other nations, including this, ac-
copied the invitation Of the English
traders and adopted free trade
settled the tariff by abolishing it, ito
use his own expression-that prophecy
would have been fulfilled and England
would to-day be the worlds workshop,
the United States occupying the glo-
rious position Of producer of raw ma
terials and food for her busy manufac-
turing hives. Fortunately for Ameri-
ca, she did not begin to breed politi-
clans of the Champ Clark variety until
wiser, clearer-headed and more practi-
cally patriotic men had adopted and
wrought out a policy which fostered
and built up her own industries and
made the nation industrially as well as
politically ndepeEdent.-Americ

Snakes in the Grass.

The copperhead press is becoming
more yenonous as the days pass. The
snake-in-the-gr policy Of certain
newspapers that weakened the admin
istration of President Lincoln is the
policy of certain Democratic nsWspa-
pers now. The people are told that II
the Washington authorities We're 10
disclose as much vigor in the prosecu-
ton of war as in ealing for troops some
progress would be made" that the
Washington authorities show marvel
Gus Discrimination to prosecute the
war;" that "as nearly half the Sena-
tors were in the military service in ev-
cry position from private to Major
General the body ought to be well in
formed upon military matters and
have very little sympathy with the pro-
crastinating conduct Of the war under
the constitutional commander-in-chief
who has for his principal assistant Ma
jor General Miles, under whom not a
blow has yet been struck by our mill
tary forces"
These para graphs are echoes Of the
copperhead utterances that were meant
to destroy the government in 1861 and
1862. They rank with the inexcusable
attacks On Lincoln, having for their
purpose the securing Of a partisan adj
vantage at the expense Of the country.
They are not quite SO reasonable as
were the declarations put forward thir'
ty-five years ago to exaspera:e the peo-
pie with those who were conducting
the war, but they are just as unreason-
able and inexcusable.
These snake-in-the- grass warriors
should know that because there are so
many e1-soldiers in the Senate, well in
formed On military matters, that body
is in sympathy with the war policy Of
the Administered Happily, their eff
forts to foment public discomfort have
begun too early. In view Of what is to
be done in the next few weeks, they
are likely to be engaged soon in spik-
ing their own guns. They may be a0x-
ious to have the government hurry
matters with the idea that rashness and
misfortune would help the Democratic
party in the November elections; but
they may forget that, while they are
exposing their disloyalty, the govern
nent at Washington is moving forward
with foresight and a elaboration
which forecasts the combination Of
their ISLANDERS by the most irrefutable
of arguments-a victorious military
campaign.-Cbicago Inter Ocean.

Manifest Desfiny.

The Salt Lake Tribune, having pub
lished the statistical array of imports
and exports from August, 1897, to
March, 1898, inclusive, showing an ex-
cess of $420,000,0o0 in exports for the
eight months, remarks: ut is not
strange that the so-called great nations
Of the Old World grow FESTIVE when
they contemplate those figures and try
to estimate what will be in twenty
years more if that kind of work con
tinues" Twenty years more of unin-
terrupted protection will transfer the

world from Europe to America and
