AS an interesting commentary upon
the loud claims of the republican press
OF this state on the eve of the last elec-
ton, that change of administration
would plunge the state into financial
bankruptcy, we call attention to the
wave OF bank failures in the cities OF
the state Immediately following repub-
hcan victory. In connection with re-
cent republican attempts to credit the
late wheat boom to republican admin
lstrat1on in the nation, we call the at
tentlon Of the farmers of Minnesota to
the recent >hrinkage of over fifty cents
per bushel in the price of their stable
product. From this fraudulent and
fake ''prosperity'' of an approaching
money standard and so-called repub-
llcan "business'' administration.
based upon famines in foreign lands
and gambling in wheat pits and on
STOCK exchanges, we appeal to a stable
just and enduring prosperity resting
upon fundamental economic principles
and upon the great and tried causes of
the worlds political, moral and mater
ial progress.

Whereas: by a gradual course of iu-
dlclal legislation, the courts of this
state, as we'll as in some other states.
have sanctioned and approved the
practice of taking cases from juries
and directing verdicts in an arbitrary
manner. and
Whereas that practice is being car
rled to dangerous extreme, and poor
sultors are often thereby deprived of
their constitutional rights, and prac-
tical denial of justice effective in many
cases where powerful corporations are
pitted against the poor, now, there
fore, be it
Resolved, that the practice now pre-
vailing in the courts of this state. of
taking cases away from juries and d.
recting verdicts, the court itself pass
ing upon the sufdciency of theevidence,
meets with our unanimous condemna-
ton and disapproval:
Resolved, further, that we demand
such legislation as will compel judges
to send cases to juries whenever there
is scintilla of evidence in support of
the claims of the parties in the case
being tried, and thus return to the sal
utary doctrine and practice that here
tofore pertained in the courts OF this
country for many years.

The Army Omcer's Trunk.


The army officers trunk, which is an
article of limited but regular sale in
peace times, being sold chiefly to regu-
lar army officers, is stout, we'll made
trunk of rather generous proportions,
so divided inside as to afford spaces for
both military and civilian attire. There
is q place for an officers chapeau and
one for the silk hat of a civilian and
room for the different clothing. and the
trunk is large enough to admit sword
laid diagonally. A trunk of this sort is
made not of sole leather, as might be
supposed, to Withstand rough wear, but
with a rigid frame, SO that it can be
roped or strapped ON to lead or packed
with other things piled: ON it in the ex-
igencies of wagon or other transporta-
ton without being crushed or damaged.

There have been 80 many conflicting re.
ports from the Klondike regions that 1t is
even yet difficult to form anything like a
satisfactory estimate of the value of its gold
deposits or even its gold productions II
was predicted at the opening of the present
season that the output would be from TWEEN
ty to thirty millions Of dollars. Some esti
mates placed It as high as forty millions
The latest information, however, indicates
that fifteen millions of dollars may be taken
as the outside figure.
The war has diverted much attention from
the Klondike, and II the production of gold
there this year shall fall to less than one.

The claims have been so largely taken al

and a practical gold miner, has returned

DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

The long and earnest Republican Con.
gresslonal primary contest in this county
between Congressman Mcdonald and Mr.
Gould for supremacy ended on Saturday
last Besides being one OF much personal
warmth, the opinion prevails that it was
also costly TO both factions and is full Of
sore disappointment to Captain Mcdonald
he having carried only four districts OF the
Internationally, Potomac, Clarksburg
and Bethesda. Had the latter again carried
his county, ii was thought the nominating
convention would have recognized the Cap
tains claim to denomination while Mr.
Gould will have to battle again whether he
meee success or defeat. The opinion is up
permost that the nomination is now lost to
the county with It's influence.
If the Democracy is ready TO take advan-
tage OF the breach not only in the Republi-
can ranks in this county, but in several other
counties of the Sixth District, it has a right
TO expect and will reclaim the district. The
breach seems not to be healed only at costly
sacrifices.

CURRENCY REFORM.

The excitement over the war destroyed
whatever chance there might have been for
currency reform legislation at the last SEES
sion of Congress. BY the time Congress
meets again the war will be over and our
national Legislators will have no more i'm
pOrtant duty than to remedy the defects of
our present monetary system and provide
for US currency that shall be elastic as well
as stable.
Mr.. ii. H. Hanna, who was chairman OF
the recent indianapolis monetary conven-
ton and of the committee which formu
lated the plan of currency reform presented
to Congress last Spring, urges that agitation
for the sadly needed reform be kept up, and
expresses his confidence that If the friends
of the movement in Congress and outside
do their duty something may be accom-
plished in the next session of Congress
Commenting on Mr., Hannas appeal, the
New York Journal Of Commerce says:
"Currency reform, however, is by no
means dead. 1t has only yielded for the
uLlO bCiiib W uibOub ohb
issues. With the revival of the money
question in the coming campaign, also, it
is likely to receive renewed attention. The
appeal of the chairman of the monetary
commission not to permit this subject to
drop out of sight is, therefore, certain to
meet with response"
The business men of the country, through
their boards of trade and other organiza-
tons, should not relax their efforts for cur
rency reform because ii has had Temporal
ry backset They can make their influence
felt by Congress Il they will co operate ear.
nestly and persistently. The currency re-
form plan that was embodied in the com.
mlttee's bill introduced at the late session of
Congress is open to objections, but is far
better than the present system. There is
reason to believe, too, that those who object
to certain features of the measure, such as
its discrimination against State banks, may
by giving an earnest support to the general
movement for currency reform be able to
effect changes in the bill that will make it
much more liberal.

LATEST WAR NEWS

A dispatch from Hong Kong, under date
Of August 0, says:
The German steamer Petrarch, which left
Manila on August @, arrived here to day and
brought the first news of severe engage.
ment between the Spaniards and Americans
near Manila. The Americans were vic.
torious.
The attack was made on the American
camp between Cavite and Manila during
the night of July 81. The Spaniards, who
numbered over 5000 men, made several
desperate charges upon the American lines,
but each time the fire of the American
troops drove the Spaniards back and finally
broke the Spanish center and the enemy re-
treated.
Later, however, the Spaniards made sec
ond attack, but were again rrpulsed and re.
treated into the bush, keeping up an inces
SAINT fire on the roads leading to Manila,
over which they apparently expected the
American troops to advance. Some esti-
mates place the Spanish losses at over 500
men killed and wounded.
Col. Boruprof the ordnance department,
has reported to the chief of ordnance of the
army, that has received OF the captured
arms at Santiago, 1000 Spanish Mausers
and 1900 Argentina Mausers. 1t is esti
mated that there are 100000 rounds of
ammunition, but he has not had time to
make an examination and count Of this por-
ton Of the captured ordnance. The rides,
which he has examined, are In good condi-
ton, and suitable 10 be issued at once TO
