MONEY IN THE SCHEME.
The seIf-sacrIRcIng Spirit OF the Gold
CLIQUE.

The SeIf-sacrifcing Spirit OF the Gold
Clique.
There is one thing particularly strik-
ing about the attitude Of the gold
clique, and that is the self-sacrifcing
spirit with which it proposes TO assume
the burden" Of carrying the circula-
ton.
OF course, there is no element of self
ish interest back Of this proposition.
The great and good self-constituted
monetary commission urges that the
burden and expense Of maintaining q
redeemabIe paper circulation be placed
upon the banks" How noble and gen
erous Of the money power to urge that
burdens and expenses" be placed upon
it.
There smoothing quite 50 patriotic and
generous in history as this pathetic
prayer, except, perhaps, the manner in
which J. PierpOnt Morgan and his bond
holding hackers tried to throttle the
government and force a usurious rate
Of interest when Cleveland was con-
temPlating an issue Of bonds.
Forced by publicity and the lash of
newspaper criticism, Cleveland. though
wishing to yield to the patriotic sand
baggers Of the money power. offered the
people an opportunity to bid on the
bonds, which were subscribed for to
three times the amount needed, and
Morgan got on his knees begging for a
chance to secure some of the issue at a
greatly reduced interest.
CurioUsIy enough, the people who re-
member Wall street patriotism as ex-
hibited during tbe-war, when the life Of
the nation was at stake, are not pre-
pared to admit that the self-cOusti-
tuted monetary commission was moved
by patriotism pure and undefled, when
it suggested putting the burden and
expense" Of taking care Ct the eircula-
ton on the banks.
Somehow an impression has become
prevalent that there is money in the
scheme. Chicago DispatCh.

WEIGHTED SILK.
How the Real Article Is Injured, By
AduIteEaffon-


At the present day the practice of
weighing silks by means Of astringent
extracts, salts of tin, silicate and PhOs-
plate OF soda, and a variety Of other
substances, all more or less injurious to
the wear Of the fiber, has reached such
q height that IT is seriously affecting the
trade This is especially the case as re
CARDS black silk, but fabrics Of other
colors suffer in the same manner.
1t used to be remarked that a silk
dress or 4 silk handkerchief would last
a lifetime; and this is almost true for
absolutely pure silk. But in much Of
the fabric sold at the present day there
is not more than ten or twelve per cent
of real silk al the rest being extraneous
matter applied TO the fiber IN the de-
eeptive process Of weighing"
Pure silk. when burned, leaves q guam
titv Of ash which is always considerably
less than one per cent; but the ash left
bv some weighted silks has been found
to amount to as much as 4s per cent Of
the weight Of the fabric
The extraneous substances to which
we have alluded are caused to adhere
TO the fiber by passing the slCeiDs
through hot baths OF tannin extracts,
tin salts, salts Of iron, anthony, potash
etc, and il has been found that when a
six much charged with such substances
Is heated It VIII not burn with fame,
but VIII only smolder away, leaving a
very large amount Of ash behind

The one Who Made Trouble Wher-

ever He Moved
An excellent and pertinent suggestion was
that once made by an old Quaker lady to a
gTumblIng man. The man had formerly
lived near the Quakeress, and from MS boy
hood had been ID the habit Of finding fault
with his neighbOrs, their ways Of living,
their speech and ideas.
He moved to another town and on his first
return to his birthplace called on his
Quaker friend who had to listen to a cata-
logue Of the faults of his new neighbors- She
spoke as sOOthIngly as possible, but her
words produced no effect.
In the course Of FIVE years the mans bust
ness led him to make a second move, and on
bis next visit TO his native town the Old
Quakeress was again favored with call
How does thee Ike thy new home, VII
hamz she asked.
ooh, the towns ali well enough, said the
man, IN his usual complaining tone, "but the
people are queer. I can't get along with
them They're not what / call good neigh
bors- I wish TO the land that I could find
somebody that was the kind to live near 1t
seems strange, with living in three places,
I've had bad luck IN my neighbOrs every
time"
William said the old Quakeress, look
ing straight across at the moody face oppo-
that wherever thee moves, one Of the neigh
bOrs move with thee. Why not leave him
behind the next time, or at least ask other
folks opinion Of him before thee moves

Work for Silver Money, Says Senator
Chandler.


Chandler.
A good New Years resolution fOz re-
publicans is TO demand and during 1898
struggle for bimetalIism. Every NAV
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
characterization Of silver and the con
sequent appreciation Of gold, which
measures values, have contributed to
50 reduce the prices Of commodities
that goods which would once have
brought the producer 500 now brings
him only 500. This is 4 worldwide con-
dition where gold prices prevail, and be
cause the manufacturers cannot get the
old prices for goods they say they can
not pay the old prices for labor. But
If ii had not been for the demonetiza-
ton Of silver the wages of labor every
where 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 10
larger wages as his share Of that prod
uct. This legitimate rise in wages the
adoption Of the gold standard has pre-
vented, and instead Of a rise comes a
fall.
Here is the whole case in a nutshell,
and it is impregnabIe. The unanimous
position Of organized labor in America
and Europe is, therefore, against the
single gold standard and in favor Of the
restoration Of silver TO its old position
as standard money!
American labor now has a protective
tariff. Let all republicans fight to keep
their greenbacks in circulation and 10
get rid Of slavery to the gold men, who
are trying to drive out Of use the silver
money Of the wage-earners Of the
world
