Alger Knows a Mauser Rifle.

The one thing which the secretary
of war, Gen. Alger, has done which
the whole people applaud is his
prompt and steadfast refusal to allow
the Spanish soldiers to carry home to
Spain the rifles with which they have
been shooting American soldiers.
That was the one question that Gen.
Shafter and the peace commissioners
in the flush of victory, were disposed
to be altogether too generous about.
The appeal of the conquered to be
permitted to preserve their military
honor In the tangible. form OF 10000
Mauser rifles should not have been
referred to Washington, but since it
was we applaud Che decision of Gen.
A ger.
What was needed at the time of the
negotiations for surrender was the
Unconditional, practical sort of COM
mon sense which disconnects Mauser
rifles altogether from abstract ideas
of military honor, and regards the
twenty thousand guns, more or less,
not only as captured property and
legitimate spoils OF war. but also as
instruments likely to be more ueeful
to American interests in the hands
of twenty thousand American soldiers
than as consolatory relics over Span
lsh anticipates, suppoRipg even that
the parole could be made to extend
to the Mausers.-Dubuque Herald.

A popular loan" to the people
would be an issue of say $500, 900, 900
OF bonds" not bearing interest, and
made full legal tender, and in de-
nominations of five and ten dollars.
Such bonds" are known as green
backs. They employ and pay for
labor, build our public works, and
our private homes and property, sup
ports our schools and colleges, sus-
talns our manufactures, open up
new enterprises and maintains those
established, pays our taxes, in short
hustles for business and earns it's in
terest without burdening the people.
These features make them popular
with the millions, while the few who
own the dollars by the million and
are too indolent to engage in some
honest industry, desire the bonds in
large denominations drawing interest,
that they may be locked up in some
safe or vault, and draw interest while
locked up enabling the owner to
draw upon the labor and industry of
the people without being of any bene-
fit to any human being except their
owner. The republicans in congress
favored bonds for the rich, instead
OF treasury notes for the use of the
people. Which do you prefer?

Falling Prices.

=
When a goldbug says that he favors
the dollar that buys the most, he says
in effect, that he favors low prices
and falling prices.
Yet, ask him if he thinks low pric-
es and falling prices are good thing
and he will say No" without seeing
the contradiction; although it is per-
fectly clear to any one who thinks
about it, that a dollar cannot buy
more than formerly unless property
sells for less than formerly
A rising dollar then is Synonymous
with falling prices, and the gold stan
dard means both. First, let us con-
slider the effect on the community as
a whole.
Almost all industry is done on bor-
rowed capital, and one share of the
product goes to the landlord as rent
or to the money-lender as interest.
This share is fixed in terms of SO many
dollars, as are also the taxes due the
government.
What remains after interest, rent,
debts and taxes are paid goes to the
producing classes, viz, the farmers
manufacturers and laboring men.
Now, if pr ices fall the share of the
money lender and the landlord is in
creased. They get only so many dol
lars, but their dollars buy more.
If prices fall far enough they may
take the entire product, leaving no
profit at all. Then the factory will
close down, or the farm mortgage be
foreclosed. "A H. Williams.
