coming session of congress will prob

silver Democrat be elected president he
can not by a mere order to the secre-

ity of the currency. A change of the
law will be necessary, by vote of both
houses of congress. The proposed ac-

the parity of money, and n dollar will
continue to be as good as another. There
can, under this system, be no reason
for withdrawing gold from the treasury

The Standard Oil Monopoly.

The industrial commission had a wit
ness the other day from Ohio who
proved to be a warm number" He al
legged that the Pennsylvania Central
Railway Company had paid $11, 000, 900
in rebates to the Standard Oil Company,
giving that monopoly advantage over
competitors. Without the help Of the
railways the monopoly would be forced
to take second place, he said. The wit
ness named a New York judge whom
he charged with having been elected to
office with a coal oil corruption fund,
because of a decision he gave in favor
of the Standard. "The Standard can
razoo a competitor up and down
through court for ten years, and ruin
him, while never ceasing illegal acts.
The company packs the judicial bench,
and buys legislatures. 1t will not do to
await reforms by states. The govern
ment should seize all railways, pay
their real worth. and then give all ship
pers the same rates. Then monopolies
could not kill competitors" was SUBJ
stantially the argument of this Ohio
competitor of the Standard.

Editors Panied.

Democratic editors over the country
apparently have pain whenever they
think of the great wrong the recent civ
il service order inflicted upon the coun-
try. Their memory is short. When
Cleveland chilled their spirits with civil
service twaddle in his first term they
resented his unwillingness to bounce
Republicans entitled to hold office on
account of merit. But when the old man
finally succeeded in getting the
office the second time with the aid of
a cabinet that believed in grabbing, he
displaced $1,000 Republicans in three
years. There was no condemnation from
the Democratic editors then. And when
Cleveland, on the v of his retirement
from office, after the election of McKin-
ley, threw a blanket civil service ex-
tension over 40, 900 men whom he had
put into office, the Democratic editors
all became advocates of the before-de-
SpiSed policy,

shower this summer, which fell two
weeks ago. Our citizens should by &c !.

hanged to lamp posts. Mr.. ingalls, new

days Of his iridescent success, and what
he says now as a writer may be said in
bitter sincerity.

quaint old adobe formerly occupied by
Martin V. Corn, the original owner OF
the farm. The house stands in the
