"SHver or Panic.

The two above statements quo
ted from high authorities in the
financial world are full of deep
significance. The statement is un =
equivocally made that there is
not in the United States money
enough to carry on the business OF
the country.
This fact will be made clear by
remembering that within the
last two years the trusts have put
upon the market six billions of
securities" and during this same
period we have added only about
one hundred and forty millions of
dollars to our currency. Now,
these securities" must be sold
Where is the ready money TO come
from to buy them, and at the same
time meet the increasing demands
of our rapidly increasing trader
1t is evident that the money sup
ply will fall wOefully short.
The advocates of bimetalism
haye contended all along that the
volume of our currency is too small,
and that the only relief lies in the
restoration of silver.
We cannot meet the demands
for more money by coming gold,
for the reason that we hav'nt gold
enough. The trusts, quite natur-
ally, prefer gold if they could get
1T. What is to be done? 1t looks
as though it must be Free Silver
or nothing.
A great Wall Street financier,
in an interview on this question
recently, said, "to my mind the
last alternative may finally and
easily be made to read Silver or
Panic. 1t will not surprise me if.

Exchange" 1t need be no surprise
if the Republican party returns to
its first love, and adopts a Free
Silver policy. Most certainly il
will il the life and prosperity of the
Trusts are jeopardized by a scarcity
OF money, which can only be thus
supplied.

The Mormons.

A great deal is being done and
said to stop the growth Of Nor
monlsm In Virginia. and other
southern States. The wonder is
that the opponents OF this sect OF
religlonists have not learned that
prosecution helps and strengthens
rather than weakens. The best
way, If we wish to hinder a religi.
GUS movement, is to let it severely
alone.

The contest for Democratic
leader of the House of Representa-
tives is growing warm. The lead
ing candidates are DeArmour, of
Missocri; Richardson, OF Tennessee;
and BanKhead, of Alabama. At
present Richardson is unquestion-
ably in the lead, and his friends
predict with confidence that he
will be chosen. Although the
minority nomination for Speaker
OF the House is somewhat of an
empty houor, yet it carries with it
titular leadership upon the floor,
and puts the man so honored in
direct line for nomination for
speaker, should his party after
wards get control. Richardson is
justly regarded az one of the best
parliamentaries in the House, and
under his leadership the Republi.
cans will lind difficult work in
keeping matters all their own
way.

one which should concern every

land was pushing .hand car loaded
with lumber along the tramway,
and as near as can be ascertained,
was in the act of blocking one of the
wheels when portion of the lum-
Der fell from the car and knocked
him off from the tram. He fell u
number of feet and struck on his
head, receiving a terrible
scalp wound, besides having his
jaw dislocated and his nose
broken. Surgical aid was sum-
moned as quickly as possible and
the wounds carefully dressed. 1t
is indeed wonder the man was not

 To complete the Nogales water system and give ample fire pressure large reservoir will be erected on the summit of Mob Hill, above the resi- dence of F.. Titcomb, Esq. A connec- tion direct with the 5-inch main in Arizpe street is desirable. To pipe the water around through the streets would make several turns, lengthen the line and adminish the force of the flow. A straight connection will have to cross private property It is hoped that in the interests of all concerned the p7operty-owner on the proposed line will donate the right-ofway to the water company. It would in no way damage or injure their land, and they would share in the general bene- fit accruing from greater protection from fire md consequent reduction of rates of insurance.
