who remained was toward democ-

who rem aimed was toward democ-
Iacy, and in the campaign just
passed there was no distinguished
difference in the party creeds. The
name was maintained for the effect
it mighr have on a few blind fol.
lowers, but in purpose, Towne,
Dubois aud others have been alb.
sorbed in the ranks of democracy.
The official call merely throws off
the mask and merges the strag-
glers into the democratic ranks.
Ninety FIVE per cent of the repub.
licans who followed those leaders
have already returned to the re.
publican party. A few others will
yet return, but Towne, Dubois,
Pettigrew and others will continue
in the democratic party. Silver
republicanism has gone the way of
all third party movements and dis
organized and disintegrated, its fol.
lowers will drift into other party
affiliations.

An interesting effect of the in.
creased vote resulting from the
participation Of women in elections
is an increase in the amount that
must be paid for liquor licenses in
many places. The liceuse is $500
in any place where at the last gen.
eral election the vote for governor
exceeded $50, and in places where
the vote was less than that the rate
is $500. Many places that cast
less than $50 votes prior to the
appearance of women as voters are
now raised into the 500 class. In
this respect the granting of the
franchise to the weaker sex has
had an effect that was not planned
but II is all right.-Boise States.

News announcing the disorgani-
cation of the silver republican
party Is one surprise even to the
casual observer of things political.
The term silver republican was a
missioner. The wing of the re

of on the tree silver movement at
first protested republicanism, ex.

The Prosperity Wave.


cal economy contends that pros.
perity comes in cycles followed
by periods Of depression, that
financial movements are not un-
like the waves of an ocean. The
following taken from a we'll known
trade journal illustrates the prac
teal side of this theory. The Ma.
tional Wholesale Druggists Asso-
citation held meeting at Chicago
in September The chairman of
the committee was w. A Hoover,
of Denver. We quote the follow
ing from his report:
''The total number of failures in the
drug and paint trade during the first six
months of the year 1900 were 1871 as
against LAG in 1899. 2s6 in 1897, and 267
in 1896. The amount of liabilities in
volved in the failures for the first six
months in 1900 were a little more than
one-third of the amount for the first six
months of 1896.
"For upwards of five years we have
been on the upward curve of the wave OF
prosperity. The apex must soon be
reached, or the experience of the past is
without avail. Greater caution should
be used in the scanning of credits from
now on"
Here is the undisputed evidence
of the return of prosperity, dating
from 1896, taken from sources
where political bias can not be
charged. We are still on the up.
ward curve of the wave OF pros.
perity, but is there any cause for
apprehension? Does the history of
the past justify the theory of pros.
perity cycles regardless of legis.
lative changes! History abounds
in instances of prosperity followed
by depression, but changes of ad-
ministIation with alternate changes
of policy have iuvaribly been the
cause, or, if not changes Of admin.
istration, the radical changes in
legislation. Astudy of the great
panics Of 1887 1858, 1873 and
1893 will verify the assertion. The
experience Of the past teaches the
American business man to avoid
radical changes in the commercial
and industrial policies of the ma.
ton. 1t teaches conservatism
Business is now on the upward
curve OF the wave. The people
are seeking no change and fearing
none if the present policies con
tinue. This idea in no small
measure influenced the voters il
the election just past. Business i.
running now on the right curve
and under present policies will
continue SO, hence the peopl,
wanted no change.

He S,nn.lned Precedent.

Clergymen of the past often had
traits OF individuality which are per-
hnps not so common at the present
day. Archbishop sumner was holding
n confirmation in an English parish
church when he observed that a mum"
Der OF people were standing in the
1islc, although several pews were
empty. He stopped the services and
asked the reason,
"'rhe pews are private property,
answered man, land they're shat
up" ~ ',1t.'aa.N'ts@ MI y
"There can be no such thing" sSJd
the bishop autborit0tively. "Let thG

INTEREST IS CRIMINAL.


Recently published statistics OF
the postal savings banks Of Great
Britain show that the thrift of the
British worI,lngm0n has reached u
point where 1t has almost become
unthrifty, and the postal savings
bank has saved up so much capital
for use In commerce that IL has well
nigh rendered capital Improbable
by reducing the rate Of interest,
II appears there are now about
100000 depositors in the postal
savings banks of the kingdom, and
that the sum Of the,' deposits Is
about S750,0O000O, Upon that vast
sum the government is at pres
ent paying interest at the rate of ~
per cent, and has not been able 10
find nm investment for oil the money
and consequently there was last
year q deficit Of about Sa5OOOO, which
had to be made up out of taxes.
Such being the condition OF the
banks, n discussion has arisen con-
cerning the eNpedicncy Of maintain
Ing them, and the issue will soon be
brought before parliament. II is nr.
gued on one side that II Is unfair
for the, government TO offer 2R per
cent. interest to deposltors in the
savings banks when II has no use
for the money; when It can borrow at
less rates all the money II needs; and
when II has to impose taxes upon
the whole people in order to be able
TO pay interest 10 the 100000 bank
. deposftors, composing 0s they do
hardly more than one-nfth Of the
population.
Upon the other side It Is argued
the very fact that the government
has this immense sum Of savings In
the postal banks to borrow from en-.
ables It to float It's loans as cheap
ms II does, and therefore that the bank
Is worth TO the government all that
II cost last year TO maintain II. Fur
thermore, II is argued II Is the duty
OF the government TO promote the
welfare of the people by encouraging
thrift ms the postal bank does, III.
n0lly II Is said thar since the govern
ment imposes taxes for the purposes
Of granting bountics for mail service
or subsidies for ship building and in
other ways aids the enterprises OF
capital, II is no more than right that
taxation should he resorted TO IL nee.
eSsary to uphold the savings institu.
tions of worliingmen and provide
them with fair interest upon their
deposits.-Topeka (Kan.) State Jour.

1T is truth that can't be too
often repeated that the men who
work support the men who are idle.
And it makes no difference whether
the idle are rich or poor they have
to be carried in either event.
