had volunteered for any service. and we're
willing TO 90 anywhere they should be or
dered
Governor Tyler wired the substance OF
this reply TO Secretary Aiger. The next
day the Fourth was ordered to Jackson
Vile, evidently with view TO sending II
10 Cuba. and the Third was ordered TO
Camp Alger. 1t seemed certain the next
order would be for 1t to proceed to Ma
nla
Nothing was ever again heard, officially,
OF any intention Of sending the regiment
to the Philippines. Had 1t been sent
thither II would now be seeing the most
active kind OF service.
The Second Regiment came even nearer
participating I'm active warfare. The first
orders to Colonel Baker from the War
Department were to report to General
Shafter at Tampa. General Shafter was
then preparing TO start with his invading
| force. But at the request OF Governor
| Tyler. the regiment was allowed to re-
main al Camp Lee to take part in Deco
| ratiOn-Day exercises, May Goth. and when
new orders came they directed Colonel
Baker to report to General Lee at Jack

NATIONAL sOUND-MONEY LEAGUE.

NEW YORK, March 30.-The committee
appointed by the Central Council of the
National Sound Money League at its re-
cent meeting here to draw up resolutions
setting forth the purposes of the league,
and report later, has drawn up the fol-
lowing:
'"The National Sound Money League de-

lance ne Immediately disposes OF that
order by characterizing it as that miser-
able makeshift called Farmers Alliance,
and its Pensacola platform" Now, the
PRINCIPLES Of the alliance were set forth
in what was known as the Ocala plat
form; so, it seems. that Mr.. Schuricht has
characterized as above this greatest or
all the organizations ever instituted by
the farmers of America without know
ing enough about the order TO learn the
name by which its platform Of principles
was known.
The principles of the Farmers ALI
ance were an embodiment Of Jeffersonian
Democracy, and they find their truest ex-
preston to-day in the Chicago platform,
which was enthusiastically supported by
$4,000 voters, and by none more hearth
w than by Alliance men. But Mr.. Schu-
RIGHT presumptuously pronounces the plat
form Of these men absurd"
IL the farmer is suffering from condi-
tions produced by natural causes, he
ought TO endure them with patience and
resignation; but II he is suffering from
conditions produced by artificial causes,
then he should agitate and continue 10
agitate until his grievances are heard and
remeded. Ii does not appear 10 me to
expect that the products OF his labor
should sell for enough 10 pay the cost or
production, when other business subsidi-
airy to and dependent upon it are assert
cd TO be in a high state OF prosperity
The chief market crops Of this section
arc tobacco and cotton, which sell for
about cents a pound net on an average
The cost Of working an acre Of cotton
Is estimated at over SIS, and the average
yield is less than half bale. or 25O pounds
of lint cotton. which. at 5 cents pound,
would amount 10 $3.50 or "A loss Of enough
TO buy the land upon which the cotton
grew Take the case Of a farmer who
raises 1000 pounds OF bright tobacco a
year. and his gross income would be
only $500, not more than enough 20 pay
for his own individual services, n no
is business man Of fair capacity. Now,
this planter would have TO own about
$4,000 worth OF property, valued AT nor
NAL prices. the interest upon which would
amount TO more than the gross income
OF the farm. The estimated cost OF raising
this kind OF tobacco IS about s. per hun
bred pounds, under average conditions;
so that this farmer would have TO raise
about $500 from some other source to pay
running expenses. Before the formation
OF the American Tobacco Trust this
farmer would have netted more money on
the same crop than II will now sell for
gross. How would Mr.. Schuricht balance
accounts under these circumstances
Would he do IL with eggs" and cheer
full views? Alas. / fear that In his eff
forts TO do so he would experience some
individual discontinue. and an inability
| to meet and associate with the spirit OF
| the timesr' "Why not have the govern
! ment run US altogether" asks Mr.. Schu-
RIGHT. Because the trusts are doing that
| and will soon save even the government

The Only William has ordered that the
German people must no more throw peu-
lions into the imperial carriage as IL pass
es through the streets OF Berlin. Hereto
fore this manner of presenting petitions 10
the German Emperor was considered as
one of the inalenable rights Of the popu-
lace of the German empire. The reason
given for the order is that recently peti-
ton was hurled SO swiftly into the car
riage that II it had been a weighty docu-
ment It would have hurt the Empress
whom it struck. But perhaps the EN-
peror fears that one OF these days a
bomb might find its way TO him in the
