refuse TO believe, that general prosperity
is here because Bradstreet and Dun say
that It is here, and here because Of the
high tariff, the gold standard and Con
fdenee," spelled with a big, big @.
Bradstreet and Dun, however. overdo
the prosperity racket, in their eagerness
to help Mark. by stating that this same
blessed prosperity equals that of 1892.
They must assume either that the
American people have all turned fools
or have lost the power of memory, for
this same Bradstreet reported the fail
ures of 1892 at the enormous sum Of
STA, 600, 600, a rather curious evidence
of unbounded prosperity unless VIZ are
to reason by contraries and conclude
that the greater the failures the greater
the prosperity. In that blessed year
also numerous lockouts, strikes and
riots occurred, including the great
Homestead strike, which took on the
proportions Of a civil war ana N which
Pinkerton's thugs butchered honest la
borers in cold blood for mere pay, the
same year in which the American peo-
pie hurled the Republican party from
power because they were suffering
yes, suffering is the word-from too
big a dose of Republican prosperity. So
Mark would do well to order Bradstreet
ct Id genus omne to let up suddenly in
their references to the boundless pros
perity Of 1899, for Mark does not want
any Of 1892 in bis. and 1t gives him
the cold shivers to hear the name Of
Homestead. Those things are calculated
to cause him to think Of how Benjamin
wal submerged that year and to have
a horror Of his chief being submerged
in the same way next year. Mark Hanna
would naturally like to be as happy as
another Mark Of whom we read--Mark
Tapley--but these silly comparisons by
Bradstreet, Dun ct al. of the present
prosperity with that Of 1892. which
wrought a Republican Waterloo, are
liable to cause our own Mark Of flesh
and blood to betake himself to the ave
of Adullam.
Prosperity strnws.

Iowa FAILS. Ia, April 7.-coionel Avery D.
Clark shot himself through the head today,
dying instantly. He was an old resident Of
this city and was formerly engaged in the
newspaper business. In recent years he has
been identified with mining interests in the
Black Hills country. Financial reverses are
assigned as the cause for the deed
The world must be topsy turvy when
we are called upon to believe that finan-
cial reverses ending in suicide are in
dubitable evidence of Republican pros
perity-big r, big Pin the rock ribbed
Republican state Of Iowa.
Item. The following dispatch an
nouncing genuine Republican prosper
ity in the far west appears to have
escaped the lynx eyed postmasters who
are also editors. I commend ii to their
prayerful and careful consideration:
BUTTE, Mon, April T.-That is undoubtedly
the greatest legal battle ever fought is that
over the receivership Of the Boston and Mon
tAna company, which is liable 10 come to a
sensational head tomorrow. The receiver was
appointed away back in December, but mo-
tons and legal stays have kept him from get
ting possession. Judge Clancy has mAde an
order that the sheriff put the receiver in pos
session. The sheriff, who is in sympathy with
the Boston and Montana, has disappeared, and
his undersherih viii not net without further
legal advice. He has been directed 10 obey
tho court'B orders or show cause by tomorrow
why he should not be punished for contempt.
The mines and smelters Of the company are
closed, and hundreds Of men are out Of work.
Deputy sheriifs are posted about the different
properties, and no one is allowed on the
grounds.
Now, praystell me where there can
be found a man, woman or child SO
idiotic as not to know that the closing
Of mines and smelters, with hundreds
Of men out Of work and with deputy
sheriffs posted about the different prop
critics and no n allowed on the
grounds" is an unmistakable sign that
Republican Prosperity-big R, big p
Is right upon us.
IL that does not render 1t indisputable
that Republican Prosperity is on tap,
perhaps this dispatch will settle the
matter in the minds Of all persons Of
whatever persuasion, religious or polit-

WHEELISG, April la-It has been a Sunday
in name only On the lines Of the Wheeling
Railway company. There were several dis.
turbanees, the most serious occurring today
in Martins Ferry, attendant upon the com

A car was surrounded, and a spectator
attempted 10 pull q deputy marshal from the
car, bat the officer pulled his revolver, and
the crowd retreated. After much difficulty
the car got back 10 Wheeling. Since then the
tracks IN Martins Ferry have been loaded
down With distractions, some going SO far as
70 nail strips Of iron across the rails. In
Wheeling, also. ears were INSTRUCTED.

That latter paragraph indicates
