Chicago Tribune Bolts.

Many persons and journals who favor
the single gold standard have no patien-
CO with the importunate demands of the
so-called currency reformers." These
"relormers,.' are hot for the retirement
of greembacks, the emission of more
bonds, and the imitation of the bank note
currency Of the country. The more con-
sentative and less selfish supporters of
the single gold standard understand
that the portion Of the currency which
these "reformers" want to "reform, ''fof
their own profit, is satisfactory to the
country.
Among the gold standard papers which
sneer at the Performers" is the Chicago
Tribune. 1t thinks congress will be
seven less willing than it was year ago
to act on the presidents Recommended
tion," for the reason that during the
past year there has been gain Of over
$50, 100000 in the gold holdings of the
treasury: The Tribune adds:
THUS there is an abundance of gold
on hand for all redemption purposes.
Furthermore, the demand on the treas
ury is for paper in exchange, for gold;
and not gold in exchange for paper.
The treasury held on December l only
361s millions in greenbacks and treas

larger the treasury officials would not
have been displeased. They are pay
ing out, gold. instead of paper, and those
to whom the gold is paid would rather
have paper. So long as the revenues are
large enough to cover the expepditures,
and there is no reason why the revenues
should not be made adequate, there will
be gold enough for redemption purposes
without selling a bond or impounding
redeemed greenbacks."
The clamor for q special session to ere
form the currency" is traceable to the
little clique which organized the so-called
Indianapolis monetary convention. 1t
is manufactured to order, and the ''fac-
tory is in Open operation before the
country. Chairman Hanna is sending
appeals to the leading papers of the
country, in which they are urged to join
in the yelping for currency reform"
and to send marked copies to Mr.. Han
ma, 80 that he may place the articles be-
fore the president, and make him be-
lieve that the people are demanding an
extra session. A more bare-faced effort
to trick the president it would be hard
to discover in the range of American his
tory.

they may, murder will out" and

very significant. This monetary

unalterably, if possible, the single
standard of values on the people.

The plan suggested in this book is
idepl in determining what are the
needs Of the people. Our present sys-
tenn Of national bank notes was in
vented by secretary Chase during
war times, with the object of ma
king our bonds sell to advantage,
and Immediately the privilege of
issuing bank notes to the extent of
ninety per cent of their face value
was granted, government bonds rose
to premium, whereas before they
were going begging at discount:
1t is the profit that the national
banks make on their circulation
which makes government bonds sell
at 20 high premium.

AN EXCLUSIVE PAPER,

1t is not generally known that
the emperor of China is newspa-
per editor, but he is, nevertheless.
More than that. his journal has the
proud distinction of having appear
ed regularly each day for the last
eight hundred years. The only
drawback, if considered from pc.
cuniary standpoint, is it's limi ted
circulation. Only one copy is print
ed each day. The name of this
unique journal is the Pekin Gazette.
1t is the organ of the Chinese inn
perial court, and each day the sin
gle copy is tackled up on big board
outside the Purple city, where the
Emperor lives. 1t averages sixteen
pages. The sheets are about seven
inches long and three wide, and the
reader begins at the lower right
hand corner and runs his eye up
and down the vertical columns
from right to left; which is the
Chineses way. The paper contains
nothing but strictly exclusive news,
but not a line is there of gospel a
bout the Son of Heaven or sensa-
tional details about his corrupt
court. There ia no advertising, and
there never has been advertisement
in its pages.
Most of the articles are dictated
by the Emperor himself, and they
consist of official acts and
reports. The Emperot's assistant
in his editorial duties is his mother.
All news relating to the condition
of the Kingdom, or anything else
that the Emperor wishes to keep
from his subjects, is of course, rig
orously excluded, and no Chinese
journalist dare to draw any deduc.
tons or make any comments upon
what appears in this royal publica-
ton. After the paper is printed the
Emperor sometimes makes marginal
notes on it with red pencil

Detroit Free Press. On the 18th Of

When the president spoke of
"forcibld annexation he was think

Great was his disappointment at
finding everything changed--aspect

know again. But "Hallo, what is
this?" he exclaimed with Joy, as he
crossed the Bidassoa and his eve

A CANAL PROJECT.
Movement to Join the Great Lakes
With the Atlantic

An effort will DE made by persons inter
ested in lake transportation to have the
Anglo-American commission take up the
project for a canal joining the great lakes
and the Atlantic. This project has been IA
vorably reported upon by a deep-water-
way commission, authorized by Congress
and appointed by the President. While
this established the pra cticability of the
canal, the present movement contempIatcs
the devising by the Anglo-American COM
mission of plan of joint action by which
work will be actually begun. The proposed
route would be by way of the st. Lawrence
river and Lake Champlain,. Gu: of TWEEN
tynine miles being sufficient, it is said, for
that link in the canal. Another cut o.
twenty-four miles would carry the canal 20
the Hudson river, thus connecting the
shipping of Chicago and New York by way
of the lakes, Welland canal, st. Lawrence
river, Lake Champlain and Hudson river
The projectors of this movement say tie
cut from The st. Lawrence to Lake Cham
plain can be made for three or four mil
lions, as the topography is most favorable
for canal digging. They are proceeding on
the idea of having the two governments do
the work, each doing the construction on
its own side, thus making it government
rather than private enterprise.
