You probably saw in The New Or
leans dailies that Congressman Brous-
sard had introduced bill in Con-
gress, few days ago, asking for a
$4,000 appropriation ito provide
that an additional survey shall be
made for an inland route, surveyed
under the act of Congress OF March
8, 1878, along the margain of the
Gulf of Mexico from Donaldsonyille,
La, to the Rio Grande, Texas, by
cuts and canals as a means of mill
tary and naval defense and for COM
mercial purposes. Later he intro
duced bill asking for $3.50 600 for
the construction of locks on the La
fourche at Donaldsonville.
/ have just returned from New Or
leans where I went to urge upon the
Waterways Association the necessity
of endorsing said inland canal, and
succeeded in having a committee APP
pointed, composed Of Engineers Rich
ardson and Lewis, and Mr.. Drown,
to obtain all possible data respecting
the proposed canal and the benefits
to be derived therefrom. Mr.. Brous-
sard was kind enough to send me a
copy of the report to the War De-
partment of the survey Of 1878, and
as the route chosen passes through

The Sherman antitrust law was
passed in 1890, was introduced by
republicans and passed by republic
cans. 1t was a dead letter in the
Cleveland administration of 1892.
1896, because Olney, Cleveland s
attorney general, gave it as his
opinion that the general govern
ment had nothing to do with
trusts; that the states must deal
with the issue. In the present ad.
m;nistration the republicans have
made the law operative and have
succeeded in dissolving some of
the greatest trusts in the United
States. In the last days of the
last congress the republicans re-
ported a resolution submitting an
amendment to the constitution al
lowing the government more ample
power to deal with the trusts.
This resolution was defeated by
the democrats, as the passing of it
would take the trust question out
of politics. This is the record OF
the two parties on trusts; a record
from which the most ingenious oi
them can not escape.

How Gold Deserted Us.

Gold is arrogant and tyrannical in time
Of peace, and it deserts any nation In
time Of war.-From speech delivered
in Indianapolis, Ind, by Mr.. Bryan, Oc-
tober s, 1896.
The stock of gold in the United
States has increased enormously
since Mr.. Bryan's nomination in
1896 On July I Of that year the
gold in this country, including the
coin aud bullion in the treasury
department, was $500. 5o7,o64.
By March 1. 1900, the end Of the
third year of President NICK inley's
administration, 1t had nearly
doubled, the amount being ST.
o25.S7s,I62.
Since Mr.. Bryan made this
statement the United States has
engaged in foreign war, and did
gold desert us then? No! It came
pouring in from all the world.
In 1868, the year Of the war with
Spain, the gold that was sent to
this country from abroad amounted
