Last week q Democrat, of this
county wrote the editor of the We
mango Spectator, the official organ
Of the Democracy, declaring, in
substance, that in case the Demo
cratic cOnferees of this district
nominate ex-senator Emery, "a Re
publican of Mexican county, for
Congress, that he, the correspond
ent, would vote for Mr.. Sibley, as
the choice would be between two
Republicans, and he preferred Sib-
ley to Emery. The Spectator, after
filling a column OF space in argu-
ment with itself, arrives at the same
conclusion as its correspondent, and
would favor Sibley in preference to
Emery for Congress. 1T is but fair
to say that both the Spectator and
it's correspondent express a prefer
ence for a straight out Democrat
for Congress. But we congratulate
our neighbor in his determination
to support Mr.. Sibley, under certain
conditions. 1t is but Il step further
to make that support unconditional
and unite with the Republicans in
support of Mr.. Sibley. That step
means political salvation for the
Spectator. Why don't the Demo-
Gratis nominate Mr.. Sibley if they
desire to vote fora Republican can
didate for Congress?-Franklin

Senator Vest and QUAY.

Senator Vest, in explaining his
vote against the seating of Quay to
a reporter of the Washington Post,
said that he always voted against
the constitutional power Of Gov
ernor to appoint a Senator after the
legislature, with full opportunity,
had failed or refused to elect.
"This," said Senator Vest, "is the
reason of my voting against Mr..
Quay, and, right or wrong, it will
be a lifetime sorrow that / was con-
strained to intlict pain and disap-
pointment upon my best friend.
He is an open, generous foe, and
his opponents always know where
! to find him. He is a born fighter.
and in my opinion the boldest and
ablest political leader in the United
States. Not a word even Of criti-
cism was uttered against Quay in
the debate, and if he had been at
tackled / would have spoken as a
personal friend in his defense. [
sincerely hope" said Senator Vest
in conclusion, "that he may be
elected by the legislature OF Penn
sylvania next winter, and when he
comes back to the Senate none will
welcome him more cordially than
myself. If the Republicans of
Pennsylvania will take advice from
Democrat they will elect him, for
| know personally that no one can
serve the state more efficiently than
Matthew Stanley Quay"

In 1894 there were only 231 S4S, =
500 bushels of wheat retained for
home consumption; in 1899 the
quantity retained was 452, $50, ,2S5
bushels. In 1894 there were thous-
ands of people too poor even to buy
bread. In 1899 everybody could
buy bread. These two comparisons
represent the different conditions
of the country under Democratic
and Republican administrations.

little town of Gallup, and the great
orator from the plains of Nebraska
decided that he would speak with
the people. He stepped out upon
the back platform, and, after bow
ing his profuse thanks to the en-
thusiastic gathering, he delivered
himself of one of his typical speech
es. The people yelled themselves
hoarse, and when the noise subsid-
ed the Mayor of the town presented
him with large Navajo blanket.
Mr.. Bryan seemed greatly pleased
over the gift, and gave the crowd an
additional treat by saying few
more words as the tnain was pull
ing out. The great man then step
ped into the car and held up the
blanket before the eyes Of his adj
miring friends and few newspaper
men who were making the trip with
him. AS he did so he noticed slip
of paper pinned to the blanket, and,
supposing that it bore some pretty
little burst of sentiment about the
"terrible crime of 1873" or some
thing of that sort, he began to read
it aloud to the people in the car.
He had not gone far before he had
discovered his mistake, but it was
too late to stop, and he had to fin
ish it. The note was as follows:
"My Dear Mr.. Bryan:-Under
the Republican administration the
wool in this blanket sells for %
cents a pound. Under the Demo-
cratic administration it sold for 6
cents. Please tell this to your con-
stituents.
A long and sickening silence on
the part of the "Kernel' followed
the reading of the note, and when
next the great man spoke it was
about the weather and the lovely
scenery.

The free trade papers vince un-
derthe oft-repeated statementwhich
they cannot deny that foreign ships
earn and take out of the United
States each year 100000, 900 for
carrying American imports and ex-
ports. There is no satisfactory
answer possible to the suggestion
that by paying this money to Ameri-
can ship owners the result would
be to keep the money at home, en-
ploying our own people instead of
employing aliens abroad.

Growing Volume of rloney.

The per capita man ought to be
happy. For each person in the
United States the amount of money
in circulation is S26.12. In 1896
the figure was $21.53. An increase
of over 20 per cent in the per capi-
ta within four years, making due
allowance for increased population,
should satisfy any one except a
Populist who wants paper money
to trundle around by the wagon
load. More than s., 200, 900, 900 of
money are now circulating in this
country, the increase in four years
reaching $492 900, 900. All these
dollars are recognized throughout
the world as equivalent to gold.
-Four years ago the gold circulating
in the United States was S4S9, 600,
900. Now it is $7S5, 900, 900, an
increase OF OO per cent. las silver
fallen back? Not bit OF it. The
amount of silver and silver certih-
Gates in circulation has increased
in four years from sos, 100000 to
$931, 100000. For the first time
the money in circulation has passed
the 1000, 900, 900 mark, and every
dollar is worth 100c in gold.
Here is a Republican triumph OF
great magnitude, so large, in fact,
that the Democratic papers never
refer to it. They advocate free
coinage as the only road to an in
creased volume of money. But in
less than four years after the Chi
cago platform was offered to the
people as the true system Of finance
the circulation has increased by
nearly 100000, ,OO0.-St. Louis

AIIRepubIicans are in Line.

Republicans all over the country are
in harmony on all the issues. Those of
New Jersey, in their State convention
to choose delegates at large to the Phil
adelphia convention, gave hearty in
dorsement to President Mckinley, not
only on the issues which were at the
front at the time of his nomination four
years ago, "but in the wisdom and ex-
alted craftsmanship with which he has
dealt with the new and complex prob
lens of great national consequence
which have since arisen." Practically
all the state conventions which have
been held have taken the same ground.
New Jersey was formerly about as
reliably Democratic as South Carolina
or Mississippi. In the Wing party's
days that state usually was carried by
the Wings, but ever since the election
of Taylor back in 1848 it has been Dem
ocratic with scarcely break until few
years ago. 1t was carried by Pierce in
1852, by Buchanan in 1856 and by the
Douglas-Breckinridge-Bell fusion in
1860. Only three states gave their cleo
toral votes to Mcclellan in 1864, and
one of them was New Jersey. Itvoted
for Grant in 1872, because it thought he
was less Republican than Greeley, whom
the Democrats indorsed that year. The
only other time in which it chose Re-
publican electors was in 1896, but it has
been carried by the Republicans so
many times in state and congressional
canvasses recently that it may be relied
on to go strongly Republican in 1900
The harmony among the Republicans
all over the country on all the issues
which will be up in the canvass this
year is of vital consequence to the party.
The chism which few Democrats were
predicting on account of the expansion
and Puerto Rican questions is nowhere
in sight The party in all the states
will be in line on all questions which
will be mentioned in the platform, or
which will be discussed anywhere on
the stump. Union among the Repub-
licans, of course, means victory. The
only hope which even the most vision
ary of Democrats had for a possible tri-
umph for his side depended upon a
feud among the Republicans on some
| of the issues which have come to the
front in the past year or two. This
hope must now be dropped. There will
be greater unity i'll the party than pre-
vailed in 1896, because the majority of
the seceders at the st. Louis convention
| of that year are back in the party this
year, and the magnitude of the victory
at the polls will be greater than it was
then.--St. Louis Globe Democrat.

The Democratic platform makers
will soon be making room for little
sympathy for the Sultan of Turkey.
Western packers paid $3.50 per 100
pounds for beef in 1896. But they paid
$500 in 1899. The farmers got the in
crease. DO they want to go back to
Democratic prices?
The New York Central Railroad and
its employees have reached a satisfac-
tory understanding, and the walking
delegate and the Democratic politicians
are correspondingly sad.
S.P. Florence, q Western stock raiser,
says that ''shearers are paid cents
head and board, this season; quite an
advance over the price paid in recent
years" This is another argument in
favor of protection for wool.

An advance of 10 per cent in the
wages Of the employees of the West
Virginia oil companies is announced.
This will hardly mix with the cold water
the Democratic editors are trying to
throw on prosperity.

Certain Democratic Representatives
who refused to sign a partisan report
on the shipping bill so as to enable the
party managers to make political capi.
tai out Of the measure are now de-
nounced by some of their party col
leagues as traitors to their party.
Internal revenue collections, in 1895
and 1896, cost 2.62 per cent of the mon
ey collected. In 1899 only 1.50 per cent
of these revenues was chargeable to
collection expenses. A Republican
administration is always careful of the
peoples money.
Idaho's bank deposits amounted to
1904, ,412 in 1894. Last year they were
S1,35S, ,66S, showing an increase of $454, :
256 in five years. A better demand for
lead and protection to wool were the
main factors in bringing about this
prosperity under the Republican ad-
ministration.
A member of the Democratic National
Committee is reported to have "cen.
sured" Democratic Representatives
Chanler, Small and Ransdell because
they filed report on the shipping bill
in accordance with their honest con-
Victions, and which report makes it
impossible for the Democrats to make
partisan matter out of the shipping
question.
a bushel of corn worth an ounce of
