SOME of our Republican friends,
we presume, last week played what
they thought was a great joke on
us. TO the right of The DAWN
ffioce door was left little bank of
snow by the hands when clearing
the sidewalk, and in this little
snowbank someone stuck a small
white cross bearing the following
inscription: Il" Here lies the re-
mains of the Pop Party"
We are pretty sure it was Re-
publican who perpetrated the joke,
as none have announced the death
of the Populist party save the Re-
publican press; but strange as it
may seem, that branch Of the press
has continued to make this an
nouncement every day and every
week ever since the birth of the
Populist party, and still it lives
and hauuts them at every turn in
the road. But indeed it was very
kind of them, and exceedingly
thoughtful to bury, as they sup
posed, the Populist party so near
our door. 1t is sufficiently handy
that we can resurrect it at mo-
ment's warning and knock the
spots off the wealthy Republican
taxdodgers. We carefully lifted
the little cross and laid it away,
and confidently believe that we can
give it permanent place in the
Republican graveyard in 19O0,with
the following epitaph, as pro-
nounced by that eminently honest
Republican, Congressman Moore,
of Tennessee:

great Republican party, the greatest

THE Tacoma Ledger says the
"Counterfeiters are a little ahead
of Bryan and his followers. They
have recently coined and put in
circulation 100000 bogus silver
dollars without the consent of any
nation. The work of the counter
feiters is less dangerous to the
country than would be Bryan's
scheme"
The counterfeiters are also a
little ahead of the organ of bankers
fiatism, which latter has not even
the virtue of bullion or other
value that could be found even
with the assistance of a microscope
"The work of the counterfeiters il
less dangerous to the country
than" the servile trucking of the
conscienceless rascals to the sophis-
try and selfshness of that class
which enriches itself upon the toll
misery, starvation and death of the
masses.

A Suggestion.

State Auditor Neal Cheetham has
just issued phamphlet entitled
"Suggestions and Recommends
tons by the State Auditor to the
States Legislature" in which,
among other things, he refers to the
delinquent tax debtor, and offers a
possible remedy to avoid the high
interest charged to delinquent tax
payers. He says:
"Retaining the delinquent certifi-
cate feature of the law, reduce the
rate of interest to eight or ten per
cent, a rate sufficiently big to make
the county and state perfectly safe,
and limit the time of delinquency
and the period OF redemption to two
years each. AS only the least de-
sirable property falls to the
county from failure Of tax pay
ment, the state should not interest
itself in legislating "snaps" into
the hands of private investors.
Under law reasonably swift and
absolutely unvarying and sure in
its operations, certificates against
the property of tax debtors should
be as good as state warrants
at about the same rate of inter-
est. Added to these terms, the
right to pay taxes quarterly should
be granted the people, and encour'
agement for It's observance given.
In fact, the tax debtor should be
allowed to pay any part of his taxes
at any time after they become
payable.

frank enough to admit it. There
can be no correction of evil before
the discovery and location OF it,
and the evil cannot be located if
all close their eyes and are too in
formally lazy to investigate, or too
prejudiced to admit the barrel can
leak until the entire bottom has
been knocked out. We suggest
that when members of the greatest
industrial ard most productive ma
ton on earth are starving to death
while it is exporting millions Of
bushels of breadstuffs, there must
exist somewhere some slight evil
which attention cannot forever be
distracted from, even by the hula
baloo about that beautiful variety
Of patriotism which demands that
Americans perceive the "hidden
providence of God" "rise equal to
their increased responsibilities"
and tax to death the only classes
OF Americans the middle and
lower classes - who are honest in
the payment of taxes. Those who
are not taxed to starvation will
furnish excellent food for tropic
disease and bushwhacking warfare
while convincing those foolish Fill
pinos they should be "tickled to
death" to receive our heavenly
grade of civilization.

The great newspapers of London.
in reviewing the events of 1898
which affect the worlds history,
naturally give the American-Span-
ish war considerable attention.
Some of them regard the results as
of more Importance to the Britisher
than the outcome of his recent VIC
tory over the semi-savages of
Africa, and all of the editors felici-
tate their countrymen npon the
apparent adoption by America of
the "expansion' policy, and, as
they allege, the remarkable devel-
opment of militarism among the
American people, all of which they
regard as matters for congratula-
ton to Great Britain; for, they
naturally conclude, Uncle Sam may
be bamboozled into pulling some
of Johnny Bulls chestnuts out of
the Oriental fire. There are some
few Americans still remaining who
have not yet become fully convinced
that British and American interests
are entirely identical.

PAPER MONEY BY STATE.
An Experience of the State
of New York that is worth
Some Consideration.


Some Consideration.
By chapter 40 of the laws Of 1856
the state of New York authorized
the issue of 100000, or nearly
81 100000, Of paper bills, denomi-
mated notes or bills of credit. For
some reason or reasons, concerning
which history affords no explana-
ton, only e150,OOO, or three-fourths
of the amount authorized, was act
ually issued. The entire amount
issued was loaned out on bond and
mortgage at 5 per cent annual in
terest, distributed over II counties.
Theee notes or bills of credit were
nothing more or less than so much
circulating medium, or medium Of
exchange, or money, as they might
be termed. They passed current,
and by law were intended to pass
current in exchange of commodities
and in all general financial trans
actions. The mortgages given as
security Tor the loans, by which they
were put into circulation, were
IA years by the original act, but
this limit was subsequently eX-
tended and for fully so years very
! considerable portion of the revenues
of the state consisted of the annual
interest received from these county
loans. An examination of the an
nual reports of the state treasurer
shows that more than 81 100000
were aid into the state treasury on
these loans prior to 1885, counting
both principal and interest. De-
Quoting the principal, more than
81, 100000 of interest alone was
| received, which was SO much clear
gain to the state, the salaries of the
county commissioners, which va
ried from about $50 to $3.50 per
year in the different counties, be-
ing deducted before the interest
was paid into the state treasury.
Ever since the adoption of the
constitution of 1916, up to the pres
ent hour, the organic law of New
York state has recognized the right
of the legislature to issue paper
money. The states constitution de-
clares that "the legislature shall
provide by law for the registry OF
all bills or notes issued or put into
circulation as money" The 6nan-
cial policy of the states as we'll as
the nation is controlled by profess
sional money loaners, without any
regard whatever Tor the interests OF
the people Of the commonwealth.
The interest bearing bonds Of cor
porations and municipalities in this
state are being created at rate of
NOTICES. than $5O,OOO,000 per year.
More bonds have beed issued al
ready, than the people can pay the
Interest on, unless they are pre-
pared to consent to a perpetual
condition of bondage for them
selves and their posterity. The
independence of the American peo-
pie, if it is to be maintained, re.
quires a complete reversal of the
existing financial poliey.-Levi S.
