be more cautious about fouting the
volunteers who have had the bad-or
the good-luck to he eGbarred from
participation Id the actual fighting of
the war. There is a good deal too much
Of this disposition manifest, not only
among individuals, but In certain
newspapers. IT is idiotic, Of course,
but it Is nevertheless exasperating-
this idea that only the soldiers who
went to Santiago or Porto Rico are en-
titled to credit for patriotism. In point
of fact, the inaction of the home camps
was tenfold more, trying than the
strain Of active campaigning, and not
a man in the army but would have pre-
ferred to take his chances with Mauser
bullets rather than fight typhoid fever
at Camp Alger Or Chickamauga. It
may take some fat-witted persons a
little time to learn this fact, but after d
few of them are satisfactorily thrashed,
like the thoughtless gentleman referred
to above, we shall hear less of this
stupid and insulting SANDER on the
men who were compelled to stay in
camp while their comrades-no better
and no braver-got the coveted chance
to pot the Spaniards.

Money and Values.

just so long as prices are stated IN
figures representing multiples aad
fractions of a common money unit the
number of such money units must de-
termine the exchange power of the in
dividual unit, says the Silver Knight
Waterman. If the combined gold and
silver of the world suffices to make
100000 money units, the value OK a
single unit would be one-eighth bill
lionth of the whole. But il one OF the
metals is outlawed and no money units
are made of 1t and the other metal will
only make 4,00o,000,000 units, other
things remaining unchanged. the ex-
change power of each unit will be
twice as great ais before, prices will be
only one-half as high and a mortgage
or bond will call for money units twice
as valuable as before. A thousand dol
lars means a thousand money units OF
equal size. If money units are all OF
the same value and euualize In value
regardless of the total number Of them
In existence, and the total number that
exists make the worlds prices, 1t Is
clearly evident that the exchange
power of each unit must vary inversely
as the number of units Is increased OF
diminished.

Hubbub About AIgor.

With his usual perspieacity Mr.. John
M. Thurston Of the Union Pacific rail-
road-and incidentally of the United
States senate--has discovered that
most Of this hubbub about Alger has
been created by the space writer's" Mr..
Thurston probably doesn't know what
a space writer Is, but that makes no
particular difference. II the space
writer's are responsible for the "hub-
bub about Alger' they ought to be
choked off. In order to do so it will
be necessary, from all appearances, to
silence about three-fourths of the
newspapers, nine-tenths of the soldiers
and pretty much all the civilian popu-
lation Of the United States, for the
"hubbub'' arises from all these sources.
1t will doubtless be a surprise to a
great many of these people to learn
that they are space writer's, but Mr..
Thurston himself is not space writer,
but sagacious, If somewhat aerated,
talker.

be restored in only one of two ways
either by the universal adoption Of the
gold standard, so that all nations shall
use common measure of one metal,
or by the restoration of genuine BIZ
naetallism, so that all nations may pos
sess q common measure, composed of
the joint volume of both gold and sill
yer. But the universal adoption of the
gold standard is impossible. To say
nothing of the folly of attempting its
extension to India, its establishment in
all its rigor. even in Europe, would pro-
duce a cataclysm Of disaster and mis-
cry due to the enforced humiliation of
hundreds of millions Of dollars of sill
yer and silver-supported paper, with
their superimposed credit, that social
chaos would supervene, compared to
which the dark ages would seem like
an Arcadian era. Our country's power
is rising. The next great conquest Of
commerce is In the Orieng. The ex-
rloitation of China is an impossibility
without the establishment Of stable
gar Of exchange between ourselves and
that country, nor can we make it prof
liable IL her developing forces are to
continue to receive the progressive
stimulus afforded by failing ex-
change. CHARLES A. TOWNE.

rfanna Oh Deck Again,

Many people who entertain no great
admiration for President Mckinley will
nevertheless regret that the return of
peace has apparently subjected him
once more to the domination of the
man Hanna. Since he emerged from
his cyclone cellar upon the signing of
the protocol Hanna has gradually as
sumed his former attitude of boss to
the administration. He talks of the
presidents views In regard to all sorts
Of matters as If he were the author
lied spokesman of the White House.
The old Arm of "Me and Mack" has
resumed business to the disgust of
everybody, including the presidents
friends. If the president can put q
stop to 1t he ought to do so. 1t is a
painful and humiliating spectacle to
all neutrality-suspicious. and Demo.

fat-witted vulgarlan posing as the mas.

PRICES GOING DOWN,
EVERY ARTICLE YOU HAVE FOR
SALE GETTING CHEAPER.
The Cause of the Depreciation Is the
Gold Standard OF the Republican
Party-Charles A. Towne Makes Some
Facts Very Plain.

! Failing prices are an industrial, eco
nomic, political and social evil of al
most unparalleled proportions. They
discourage industries, drive money
from activity into idleness, from the
channels Of trade into the bank vaults,
reduce wages and throw laborers out of
employment, make property unproduc-
tive and therefore worthless, destroy
equities, increase the burden of taxes
and all fixed charges, ruin debtors,
pile Up wealth in the hands of the few,
encourage the formation of trusts,
monopolies and combines, make pro-
ducers the prey Of middlemen,
strengthen the hold of the merely rich
upon the political machinery of the
state, stife the spirit of liberty among
the masses, increase immortality, and,
II long enough protracted, inevitably
lead to the overthrow and demolition
OF the very fabric of popular govern
ment. This indisputable and porten-
tous fact-the tremendous apprecia-
ton OF gold-is the central point of
this great controversy. Rightly appre-
hended, 1t Is alone absolutely destruc-
tive OF all claims on the part Of the
gold standard to be considered salts
factory money system. ANY such claim
Is confronted with the irlsuperable fact
that during the eYistnnne nf that Svs-
tenn it has given the gold-using world
a most unstable measure of value, one
that has nearly doubled in twenty-five
years. The gold standard and perma-
nently higher prices are impossible
companions. The continuance Of that
system means a continued increase in
the purchasing power Of the dollar and,
which is identically the same thing, q
protracted fall of general prices. The
par of exchange among nations can

swelled to an Army.

The most optimistic Of the friends of
direct legislation are amazed at the
rapidity of the growth of the move
ment in its favor A few years ago
the terms initiative" and "refsren-
dunn" were in the vocabulary only Of
the scholar and the crank. Today direct
legislation, through the initiative and
referendum by majority vote, stands
knocking at the door Of legislation, and
no power on earth can long defer its
incorporation into the law of the ma
ton, state, county. city, village and
township. The little band of enthu-
siasts has swell'sd into an army.-Chi-

l appeal to the great body of the
laboring classes, hereafter and forever
to use your ballots Alright.
1t is the privilege of every American
citizen, purchased at the sacrifice of
blood and tears, and which is the birth
right of thousands of years OF slow
and painful evolution from slavery
and degradation. It is a ballot that.
was unknown in ancient days, that first
began to make its appearance when
the English barons demanded the Mag
ma Charta from King John, when Oil
yer Cromwell rose against the despot-
ism of Charles |. 1t is ballot that
was not born until the American col
onies rebelled, and that masterpiece Of
human composition, the Declaration Of
independence, was given to the world.
It was a ballot that did not reach its
majority until Lincoln broke the
shaekles that enslayed the colored race,
and signed that second MAGMA Charta--

are not mentioning the fact that wheat
and silver have got together again in
price.
The grain gamblers of the Chicago,
New York and Liverpool boards Of
trade are all for Sound money" but
business Is business, even II an election
is approaching, and the price of wheat
must be kept down, at least until they
can get it out Of the farmers hands,
and this is only an of year election
anyway.
But for the tricked and outraged pro-
ducing masses of the country this falls
election is not an off year election.
1t is matter of vital Importance that
the gold standard corporation attor-
neys be prevented from obtaining con-
troll of both houses of congress. The
senate will very likely be secured by
the gold bugs for the reason that most
of the retiring senator's in doubtful
states are silver men, and for this rea-
son the people should resist with all
the greater vigor Wall streets schemes
for retaining control of the house OF
representatives.
There are Hannaites in all parties
and they are working for high stakes.
If they can control both houses Of the
next congress they can at their leisure
tie this country up in bundle and
present 1t to the money power.
Happily every sign indicates free
silver majority in the next house, and
the larger the vote polled the larger
will be the silver majority.
