It 10 little less than astonishing that
the total passenger sailings to Alaska

Freight shipments from Seattle to-
Alaska for the six months ending July,
appear by the Observation-Disclosures hg-
ures as published yesterday to have
reached the considerable total OF s2.192
tons. while the returning freight
amounted to s2.l4s tons. an aggregate
business OF nearly $4,000 tons. Although
the figures Of other ports are not avail

larger than those Of San Francisco, Ia

THE STOCK MARKET,

Large sterling loans, followed by the
offer of the Treasury to buy bonds. have
materially changed the situation in the
stock market. here has been no strin
gency in the money markets, except as
before, in the supply of funds for specu,
lation on call loans, and though some
cared industrial work or markets for
products might be affected, it does not
appear that they have been at all. Since
this was the belief expressed by Secre-
tary Gage just before the bond purchase
was announced, that step was not de-
signed by him as relief to the market.
but as embracing an opportunity which
might not soon return of lessening the
interest bearing debt of the Govern
ment at advantageous terms. With
larger revenue than the t easury needs,
part OF the interest bearing debt created
during years of depression may be can
celed. 1t is calculated that the opera
tion, if successful, will save the treasury
about $2,40O,000 -Dun's Rev ew.

RICHARD CROKER ON THE ISSUES
OF THE COMING CAMPAIGN.

Richard Croker. the Democratic head
push, when asked his opinion in New

campaign would probably be, said:
"Anti.imperialism will be heard plalner
than all others. 1t will be the biggest
issue and the best help to the party

numerous and more dangerous every da,r

committed to the ratio of Is to l. | do
beileve that the majority of the people
are III favor of bimetallism, and are con-
tent to go no further than that in the
declaration to be made in the party's
platform. Congress is the body to settle
the currency question, and it IS my opin-
ion that the best thing to be done is to
declare for blmetalsm at a just ratio,
and leave it to Congress to settle what
the ratio is to be. A Democratic con-
gress can be depended upon to do the

IT IGNORES SILVER.

The first Issue of the Democratic Ma
tlonal Bulletin, the weekly publication
OF the Democratic national committee
has made its appearance It's editor
Sam B. Cook, says the paper reflects the
ideas of majority of the members oI
the committee, and that the object o,
its publication is "to disseminate ideas
on current questions that are likely to be
features of the next national campaign ,
But the Bulletin has nothing to say
about free coinage; 1T devotes it's heav,
editorials to trusts and "imperialism.'
This indicates what is becoming more
and more patent every day to political
observers-that the Democrats are going
to sidetrack silver in the next campaign.
1t will remain for the Democratic papers
OF Montana to contend next year that
silver is the ''paramount' Issue.
