WHERE MEXICO ENos.

Monuments, Each within Sight of the
Other, Mark boundary Lines.
Two hundred and fifty-eight stone
and iron monuments now mark the
boundary line between the United
States and Mexico, from the Rio Grande
to the Pacific, TOO miles. Most of the
monuments are of cast iron, but the
principal ones are of stone. They av-
erage about two and half miles apart,
but in no case Is there an interval OF
as much as five miles between them.
Stone was used wherever possible.
Generally they are in the form of a
simple taperlng, four-slde shaft, bear
ing suitable inscriptions in English and
Spanish. The stone monuments are
about eleven feet high and the iron
monuments about six and a half feet
high. They are arranged so that they
are within sight Of one another from
one end Of the line to the other. The
country traversed consists mainly Of
deserts and mountains, and in many

country OF the offenders nationality.
An extensive report OF the commits
sioL that did the work. covering 700
pages Of printed matter, and accom-
panied by maps and Photographic
views, was submitted to Secretary o.
ney recently by Colonel ]. w. Barley,
corps Of Engineers, U. S. A. The orig
inal treaty between the tw countries
in regard to this work was concluded
July 20, 1892. The line was formerly
marked by about fifty monuments, and
the remarking became necessary in
order to put an end to the constant
disputes and controversies over terri
torial rights which resulted from their
destruction or displacement. Wher-
ever pssible the original monuments
were restored. Many OF them had
been displaced and others completely
destroyed. The report is signed by all
the members Of the commission, and
its conclusions arc binding upon the
two governments concerned.-Wash-

selves and such persons or parties rep
resenting them. For instance, voter
may favor protective tariff and at the
same time may favor the free coinage
of silver. The democratic platform
and candidates during the last cam
paign were pledged for the free coinage
Of silver, but were opposed TO a protec-
tive tariff. The republican party ia
vored protective tariff, but were OPP
posed to the free coinage of silver
Thus, when voter cast ballot IA
voring democratic candidate he exer-
cised his franchise in favor of free
coinage, but defeated his object so far
as protection was concerned, if he was
in favor of protective tariff. If he
had voted the republican ticket he
would have exercised his franchise on
the question Of tariff, but would have
stulti6ed himself so far as his desires
for free coinage of silver were concern
ed. Direct legislation would provide
for the Acknowledgement of all voters
on all subjects and at all times.
"When the people are represented in
legislative matters, either by individ-
ual persons or political parties, they
are often betrayed by such representa-
tives. Legislation action and special
privileges are bought and sold to-day
as commodities. Direct legislation
would Immediately and effectually
prevent such legislative corruption
representatives would no longer sell
legislation or special privileges, be-
cause there would be no buyers; lob
byists would no longer purchase legis.
lation, because representatives could
no longer "deliver the goods;" dishon-
est men would cease to buy Legislative
positions, because their dishonesty
could not bring them revenue in such
positions; special privileges could not
be bought when only obtainable
through direct legislation"

every man who works for wages
should fight against the single gold
standard of money, which is the most
potent cause of the recent reduction in
wages made in all the factories of New
England. The demonstration of silver
and the consequent appreciation of
gold which measures values, have con-
tributed to so reduce the prices of
commodities that goods which would
once have brought the producer 500
now brings him only $50. This is a
worldwide condition where gold prices
prevail, and because the manufacturer
cannot get the old prices for goods
they say they cannot pay the old prices
for labor. But If it had not been for
the denomination of silver the wages
of labor everywhere in recent years
would have risen because each laborer
has been able year by year to create
larger product and he has therefore
been entitled to larger wages as his
share of that product. This legiti-
mate rise in wages the adoption of the
gold standard has prevented, and in
stead of a rise comes fall. Senator

Plngreo on Leaders"

Buffalo, N. Y. Jan. Governor
Hazen A, Pingree of Michigan, in a
speech before the Independent Club of
Buffalo tonight, created a sensation
by his attack on 'so-called republican
leaders" who value the power of the
dollar to bring them success more than
they do that of the vote.
Governor Pingree at the outset
quoted Abraham Lincoln's declaration
on the field of Gettysburg:
"That government of the people, by
the people, and for the people shall not
perish from the earth"
He continued To-day all the trusts
and monopolies which are bleeding the
country have taken refuge under the
wing of the republican party because
they fear the democratic party, which
has kicked them out. In my own state
the railroads, which have never paid
their just share of the taxes, have been
a faithful ally to the republican party.
l have had something to do with the
effort of the people of Michigan to get
a readjustment of the railroad taxa
tion and rates, and every railroad at
torney and railroad doctor, every little
country newspaper editor who has a
pass, every politician who hopes for
financial favors to help re-elect him, is
out Of breath crying 'Pingree is not
republican They cry this because l
was elected on the republican ticket
by a majority of sc, 900 and they do not
want me reelected. King Doodle cries;
1 am the party and there is none be-
side me-
II say that any so-called republican
who thinks that the interests of rail-
roads, trusts, monopolies or syndicates
are of more Importance than the inter
ests of the average man had better get
out of the republican party in Michi-
gan, for 1 am going to fight it out on
Lincoln's platform no matter what
they call me.
"Thc monopolist, the franchise grab
Der, the lobbyist are all extreme par
tisans, and when anyone opposes their
schemes they cry, You are attacking
the party When they elect them
selves to Office by force of money, they
ascribe IL to divine intervention of
Providence in behalf of the nation and
its honor. The masses of the republi-
can party do not want to stand spon-
sor for those agencies which are play
ing the mischief with this country's
welfare any more than the democrats
do. We have, however, some so-called
leaders in our party who have more
faith in the power of money than in
the power of the voting masses.
"Your membership is composed of
men of all parties. believe in indie
pendence in politics; 1 am somewhat
Of an independent myself Those of us
who believe in government for the peo-
pie should not hesitate to denounce the
men of our own party who would make
ours only q government for tue benefit
Of the almighty dollar and the posses
sors thereof

The Denver Road has been waging a
hot fight On behalf of home manufac-
turers which has brought from an
eastern paper the remark that at is
protection run mad" The average
eastern business man and manufacturer
always keeps his eye on the gun; he
votes steadily for protection that pro-
tects him at the expense of the CON
sumner, but he is quick to resent any
movement that would tend to take from
him the trade of the west. That section

Senator Wolcott made an informal
report to the senate on Monday of the
work of the bimetallic commission
abroad, In the course of which he took
occasion TO say that "the president of
the United States had extended to the
commission his answering support in
all its efforts to bring about an inter-
national agreement" and he knew him
to be a loyal bimetallist; expressed the
personal conviction that the ratio be.
tween silver and gold might have to be
changed from 16 to 20 to l; admitted
that an international agreement at
this time was impossible, and incident
ally criticised Secretary Gage, both as
to his financial policy and his republi.
canism, saying that Mr.. Cages lad
vent into the cabinet and party were
practically contemporaneous." The
speech has aroused great feeling among
the friends of the administration, and
the presidents personal organ in Chi
cago declares that the secretary, sin
taking stand for the single standard
and in attempting to give direction to
thought to that end, not only repre-
sents the president, but that he stands
squarely upon the St. Louis platform
President Mckinley must not be sur
prised, in view of such diverse notions
as to his attitude upon the currency
question as are expressed by Senators
Chandler and Wolcott ON one hand, and
Secretary Gage and the other national
bankers on the other, if the plain peo-
pie fail correctly to understand exact
ly where he stands upon this question
of such vital moment to the country's
prosperity.-Farmers' Voice.

The Indianapolis News (gold bug),
on January 10, read long curtain lee
ture on the Republican party and said
it must now throw off the mask of ''in-
ternational bimetallism" and come out
squarely for the gold standard-as il
it had not been so committed for years.
But, it points out that men like Chand-
Ter and Wolcott are not yet to be found
in the republican party and it wants
them driven out. So we do. We want
the last honest man driven from the
ranks of the pirate gang, so there will
be none to give responsibility to the
crowd, even by their presence. Then
we want the Croker and his gang to
nuke 1t so hot for Bryan, Bland and
Sibley that they too will be driven
from among the corruptionists of New
York city and the ballot-box suffers
of the South. Then will the good peo-
Pile of all parties be able to get togeth-
err in new party and wipe from the
