COMMENT AND OPINION.

UBryan is just boarding around
among the democrats, who are giving
banquets in his honor. 1t is easy for
some men to make living.-Cleveland
Leader.
UThe Fifty-fifth congress, though
not republican in both branches, had
the good judgment to stand by Presi-
dent Mckinley. This will be its best
credit mark.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat.
UHow would it do to make the dem
ocratic ticket Bryan and Aguinaldo?
The latter will evidently be in harmony
with that party on the question of our
occupancy of the Philippines, and could
swallow the sixteen to one.-Decatur
Qll) Republican.
ULeading financiers say that the
business boom now on the country is
likely to continue. There is no reason
why it should not, for nothing is apt
to occur to change the conditions that
have brought about the unprecedented
prosperity.-Cleveland Leader.
UOne of the many things which Mr..
William Jennings Bryan will find it diff
fcult to explain later on is the advance
of ten per cent. in the wages of the IRON
workers of the United States under the
debauching and degrading influence of
the gold standard.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.
CyThe record of the Fifty-fifth con-
gress is now history, and it constitutes
one of the most notable chapters in
American annals. Perhaps no other
congress had presented to it questions
of more vital concern to the interests
and welfare of the nation, and, with few
exceptions, these were wisely disposed
of.-Omaha Bee.
UThe United States congress ad-
journed with Mexican silver dollars
worth Az cents each in the New York
market. The Mexican dollar contains
more silver than the United States
standard silver dollars, yet every one OF
those standard dollars is worth 100 gold
cents, merely because they are based
on the god standard--Iowa State Reg.

THE CONGRESS JUST OUT.
A Record Which Coming Bodies
May Well He Proud to
Emulate,

The Fifty-fifth congress has closed
it's labors and, unless the president
calls special session of the Fifty-sixth
congress, the country will have no
more national legislation until next,
winter. Most of the work properly be-
longing to the congress elected in 1896
was completed. In some instances it
was unsatisfactory. In one, it was in
finitely worse. AS a whole, however, it
commands approval and will stand out
in American history as evidence of
craftsmanship and patriotism which
could rise above partisanship.
In the special session, called almost
Immediately after President Mckinley
was inaugurated, the senate led the
way in exalting patriotism above party.
1t was not a republican body, yet it
passed the republican tariff which
came to it from the house, and that, toe.
without partisan amendments. 1t
recognized the fact that the people
wished to have the Wilson tariff re-
pealed and bill affording a higher
degree of protection passed, and it
acted accordingly. The senate Of the
Fifty-fifthl congress deserves a popular
vote of gratitude for its part in max
ing the Dingley law. The house did
only what it was bound by every con-
sideration of political honor to do, but
the senate rose superior to ordinary
political motives
In the magnitude of its appropria-
tions this congress made an unprece-
dented record. Hitherto the billion
dollar figure has been regarded as a
high-water mark, but this congress
pushed the appropriations up to a bill
lion and half. However. the increase
was not due to extravaganza. 1t grew
out of the war, and the country cordial
ly approved every item of it,
The congress which has now passed
into history did more than turn new
leaf in our national annals. 1t began
fresh volume, and wrote the opening
chapter to its end. The Fifty-sixth con.
gress can take up the Legislation for
our new territory unembarrassed by
any enactment of its predecessor. The
policy of meeting great questions only
as they actually arose was steadfastly
adhered TO by the Fifty-ffth congress
from first to last in regard to both the
war and its results. The highest duty
of legislative body is TO meet the re-
quirements of the situation as they
arise, but hardly less important is it to
refrain from touching matters which
lie beyond the field Of present respon-
sibilitity.
Happy will it be for the country II
the next congress leave as good rec
ord as that spread upon the pages OF
our history by the congress that car
ried us through the war with Spain.-

M'KINLEY'S TWO YEARS.
Since His Election the Country Has
Been Growing More Pros
porous.


The administration of President
Mckinley is just entering its third
year. 1t is, therefore, fitting season to
inquire if, in general way. the good
results claimed by those who advocated
his election have been realized by the
country When he was nominated for
the Office of president, the treasury was
fighting to retain its gold reserve, but
without success. His predecessor had
made two issues of bonds, ostensibly
for that purpose, but the proceeds were
largely used to make good the deficits
of the Wilson-Gorman tariff. More than
90 per cent. of the revenues were being
paid in silver funds. The endless
chain was being used to get the gold
out of the treasury, which timid peo-
pie were boarding away. or it was being
exported to pay for American securities
in Europe which the owners were anx-
ious to get rid of. The party which
nominated the president promised to
maintain the gold standard.
His election put an end to all doubts
about the possibility of the country
passing to a silver basis. Confidence
came. The endless chain ceased to run.
Gold flowed into the country, and the
mines increased their output, but it
was the confidence which came with
the election of Maj, Mckinley that
turned the tide. Industries began to
pick up slowly, and business bright
ened. Scant crops abroad called for
large expectations of breadstuffs, which
gave large balance of trade in our ia
vor. Then came the prompt passage of
the Dingley bill, which returned BUSH
ness lost by the Gorman-Wilson tariff.
To equip railroads, which came into an
unprecedented business late in 1897.
great demand for steel sprang up, start
ing the iron industry into an activity
before unknown. This activity quickly
extended to other industries, because
better prices on the farms and in many
factories quickened the consumption
of all the products of the country.
reaching at last the depressed cotton
manufacturing industry of New Eng
land. One will look in vain for period
when so many advances in wages in so
many industries have been announced.
Now nearly 80 per cent. of the revenues
of the country are paid in gold, while
the certainty of the gold basis causes
the present volume of silver dollars and
certificates to be accepted as being as
good as gold. Conditions have been ia
vorable, but they have only tended to
help the work which the republicans
promised in 1896 to do, and which the
administration has helped along. Fa-
vorable conditions could not have
turned back the disaster which tri-
umph of Organism in 1896 would have
brought to the country.
The war with Spain and the immense
responsibilities. involving No" ceca'-
tons were>not dreamed of. So far as
the president has been called upon to
assume these responsibilities it is ad-
mitted by all, except those whose polit-
ical hopes make them critics, that he
has displayed that wisdom and patriot
ism which belong to exalted statesman

live mostly in Monaco. where rents are
cheaper. Monte Garlic, consists chiefly
OF the Casino and its appurtenances,
group OF hotels, u railway station and a
very handsome arched stone railway
bridge.
Here are the Maritime Alps, rising ell
most out of the back yards of both
places, the sea in front, no bits of arabic
land bigger than flower beds, no man
ufactures, no chance for any industries
beyond fishing and retailing groceries.
If you take away the gaming tables.
1t was a strong temptation, no doubt,
to their little majesties of Monaco to go
in for anything that promised to bring
money into the country. And the win
ter climate was the best in Europe,
and therefore suitable for a great win
ter resort. Let us give the devil his
due. and say that the prince was not
without reasons for making himself
the chief gambling piinp of the world.
The gambling industry was begun here
in 1856, but only in s::ssia!Ml ,;--ay. Then,
four years later, person named Blanc,
who had been expelled from Hamburg,
came here and developed it. At pres
emit the gaming tables support every
thing. The Casino company pays the
prince $250,00O a year. for the conces.
sion, though that is only small part
of what they really pay, as shall show
in moment. This is stock company
of the ordinary kind, like any mining
or insurance company, with shrres
that can be bought in the market and
that pay such handsome dividends that
they command always a high premium.
So, if you are millionaire, as | hope
you are, and would like to be in a posi-
ton to dictate to real prince, you
need only come over to Monaco and buy
enough shares in this company. They
are 500 shares, and sell at present at
about $500, believe.-William Drys-
dale, in n. Y. Times.

To the Point.

Over in Socorro county, N. M., a sheepman named Patterson runs the following notice in the Chieftan:
 ''It has come to the knowledge of the undersigned that sheep owner in western SocOrro county is buying all the stray sheep he can get. Therefore to make it interesting to certain par ties who manage to live and never do any work, offer a reward of $250 for the arrest and conviction of any one unlawfully handling any of my sheep. A thief left to stink on the trail will count as a conviction"
 Patterson would evidently willingly pay the reward if the last clause in the notice is carried out.
