TRUsTg MAKE DEMOCRATS.

The signs indicate that while silver will
remain in the Democratic platform it will
not have the leading place in the campaign
which the Democrats will carry on for
control of the government next year.
There is a growing sentiment in the
party that there is more good campaign
material in an antitrust declaration than
there is in a demand for the free and un-
limited coinage of silver.
In an interview in Washington day or
two ago Congressman Bankhead, of Ala
bama, who is favorably mentioned as the
Democratic candidate for speaker, and
hence for leader of the minority of the
House, SAID that silver will not be as
prominent in 1900 as it was in 1896. Accord
ing to his way of looking at the political
situation the wise thing for the Demo-
Gratis TO do is to make a vigorous fight
against trusts, and that means. of course,
a fight against the Dingley tariff, which
protects trusts.
Mr.. Bankhead says that it is not general
ly understood that trusts have antagonized
the wage earning element of the people to
an extraordinary extent. Because of the
consolidation of great interests thousands
of men have been thrown out of en-
ployment. He related an instance which
came under his own observation. 81
travelled" he said, with a drummer of
the Continental Tobacco Company, who
Informed me that $50 travelling men of
the company had been laid off in one day,
because the company had gone into
trust, and hence, having no opposition,
could do business just as well by circu-
lars, through the mails This man inform
ed me that he had been Republican all
his life, but believing the Republican party
responsible for the huge combinations
which have been formed, he would here
after vote the Democratic ticket"
With the drummers on their side the
Democrats will stand an excellent chance
of winning the next national campaign.
They come into contact with the mer-
chants, who are the influential men in
the small towns of the country. ana
these merchants villa be largely influenced
in their political views by the drummers.
If the drummers decide, in self-defense.
to join hands with the Democrats against
trusts the Republican party will have need
Of more brains than Senator HaDna has
to bring the Republican party under the
string "a winner in the next Presidential
race.

The experiment station Of the Florida
department Of agriculture has issued a
statement which should prove Of deepest
interest TO every farmer in the state. Il
is as follows: "A common Florida COW Of
the large class zen years old picked up
of the range, was put on cassava diet
supplemented by a little coarser fodder
and cotton seed meal for seventy-fiye
days The gross gain in weight was rs
pounds, the weight increasing from $50 to
72s pounds. The amount Of cassava con-
sumed was LIS pounds; value Of increased
weight s11O4; cost of entire food including
cassava $2.62; profit, $8i2.' There is no
reason TO doubt that what was done at
the experiment station in this case could
be duplicated by any farmer in Florida
VINO would give his attention to the mat
ter. The possibilities Of Florida as stock
state are too little appreciated by her own
people.

WHY NOT GOLD CERTIFICATES,

There is a very general demand for paper
money. The people don't want TO carry
either gold or silver in large amounts In
their pockets. There is a great deal of
gold In circulation, and in drawing money
from the banks people express their pref
erence for paper money. 1t doesn't make
any difference 10 them whether it is in
national bank bills, greenbacks, treasury
notes or gold or silver certificates. The
paper money is much more convenient and
can be handled with less danger of loss
than gold.
There doesn't seem to he any good rea-
son why the treasury department
shouldn't issue gold certificates. The act
Of June ~, 1882. authorizes the Secretary
of the Treasury TO accept at the treasury
in Washington or at any sub-treasury
deposits of gold in sums of 500 or up
wards, and issue certificates for the same
In denominations of not less than $40 but
directs him to suspend the issue of such
certificates when the amount of gold in
the treasury falls below $1OOOOO,OOO.
During the term of office of Secretary
Carlisle the gold in the treasury fell be-
low that sum, and he suspended the issue
of gold certificates. But there Is no rea-
son now why The issue shouldn't be re-
sumed. The treasury is fun of gold. ii
having more than $2OO,O0O,oOO of 1t. 1t is
said. however, that Secretary Gage has
doubts about his authority TO issue certifi
Gates. 1t Is difficult to see why he should
be troubled by such doubts The law
seems to be very clear. The authority to
suspend the issue of the certificates ear
ries with il the authority to resume the
issue of them.
The output of gold is steadily increasing.
In the year 1887 it was only S1O5. 600 900 for
the whole world. Last year ii was nearly
S2SS, 100000. The director of the mint esti-
mates that IL will be more than $40. 900 600
for this year. and that 1t will come very
near being s400,00O,000 next year. Owing to
our enormous exports we are getting a
very large share of the worlds gold. More
and more of the metal will appear in cir
culation unless some method is adopted
for putting paper money in circulation 10
represent il. And it might be advisable
for Congress 10 authorize the Issuing Of
gold certificates Of a denomination less
than $50 Certificates of the denomina ton
of s. would be a great convenience TO the
people
Silver in dimes, quarters and halves is
a necessary currency, but most people pre-
fer silver certificates to silver dollars. It
would be a popular thing to do to put in
circulation silver certificates of small de-
nominations In place of some of the silver
dollars which are so burdensome 10 carry.

THE CANAL COMMISSIONS REPORT.


The publication of the report Of the
Walker Nicaraguan Canal Commission is
interesting for several reasons. one Of them
being that il shows that the route of the
proposed canal is even more feasible than
il was generally supposed to be. and an
other is that, although there is consider
able difference in the estimates Of the
commissioners as to the cost of the canal.
the highest estimate is well within the
amount the people Of this country would
be willing 20 invest in a thoroughly salts
factory canal uniting the Atlantic and Pa
cihc oceans.
The majority Of the commissioners say
the canal can be built for $11s,l13.79O Col.
Haines, who is. probably. the member Of
the commission best qualified to make
an estimate of the cost of the work. thinks
it could be built for SlS4, Sls,3OS Judging
from what the actual cost of other works
OF a similar character has been, in COM
parison with their estimated cost, il Is
safe 90 say that Col. Haines' estimate Is
much more nearly correct. There are
thousand and one things which have to
be done in the construction of such a stu
pendous work, which cannot be foreseen
by the engineers who make an estimate
of the cost of it,
Il is well understood. of course, that
Congress will not undertake 90 construct
the Nicaragua canal on the information
furnished by the report of the Walker
commission. Il has authorized the expen-
diture of 100000 in another survey of the
Nicaraguan route, and in making an esti-
mate Of the cost of completing the Pana-
ma canal. Ex-Speal5er Reed was mainly
instrumental in defeating the Nicaragua
bill in the last Congress. He took the
position that no one of the commissions
which had made a survey of the Nicaragua
route had furnished satisfactory informa-
ton that the route was practicable, that
permanent and deep harbor could be con-
structed at each end of the canal or that
the canal could be built for anywhere near
the estimated amount.
He also said that it might be advisable
to assist in constructing the Panama
canal instead of building a second canal.
since 1t was pretty certain that two canals
would not pay dividends on the money in
vested in them. Another point he made
was that a company holds the conees-
sions for the Nicaragua canal from the
governments of Nicaragua and Costa
Rica, and that it would cost a large sum
to get possession of them.
He made out so strong a case that Con
gress decided to follow his advice, and it
is probable that considerable time will
elapse before anything definite is done in
respect TO Nicaragua canal One thing
that will hasten the building of a canal
across either Nicaragua or Panama is our
possession of the Philippines. The pos
session Of these islands is a powerful fac
tor in the canal problem, and will hasten
its solution.

THE plain and evident intention shown by
the Filipinos to use the commissioners as
a means to gain time In which 20 recover
from the defeats administered by Gen.
Otis, should be warning not to be for
gotten, and as they have declared for war.
they should be given what they ask for.
AS they resist and resent the efforts of
the peace commission, the commission
should be sidetracked for awhile and Gen.
Otis given free reign with troops enough
10 vanquish the Insurgents"
