Then and Now.

William Mckinley, THE Ad.
vance Agent of Prosperity" will
make his rounds this year under
very different circumstances from
those of his last quadrennial trip.
Then workshops were empty, din
ner pals rusty and the eager
crowds that once thronged the fac
tory and workshops, were clamor-
ing at the entrances of free soup
houses and charity kitchens like
hungry hogs waiting for the bits
OF charity that could be spared
from the larders of the more for
tunate citizens. Then the grass
grew in the forge and the beetle
and bat kept watch and ward over
the the silent anvil and the rust
ing hammer. Barefoot and ragged
children cried for the food their
anxious eyed, broken hearted
mothers could not give them, and
swarmed over street and alley in
search of food to beg, steal or
CLEAN. The arteries of commerce
were pulseless and the heart of in
tustry was pilsaiing feebly aud

threatening collapse. Democratic
calamity had reached its high wa
ter mark, business was submerged.
Now the advance agent will find
the myriads of furnaces and FORCES
glowing night and day except the
comparative few closed by trusts
because those monsters of iniquity
have taken on more of task than
they can handle and are totiering
to their fall. Souphouses are closed
and forgotten and charity kitchens
are no more. The dinner pail is
bullying out with the fat of the
land. Instead of ragged and hun
cry children, the streets are filled
with happy, shouting, we'll clad
and thriving youngsters whose
mothers are no longer anxious
eyed except to keep the dirt from
the vomiting smokestacks where
husbands and fathers are earning
handsome wages from settling on
the young hopefuls. The whirr of
busy machinery has dispelled the
silence and the clink of anvil and
hammer have banished grass and
rust. Commerce is revived and
swelling to great proportions. Re-
publican prosperity has banished
democratic calamity.
1t will be an easy matter to re-
verse the picture again. A vote
for Organism, populism, Agninal-
doism, Red Shirtism, and all others
of the brood of fou!ism floating un.
der the democratic banner may
help to do it.

WHAT DEWEY SAID.
Message From Hong Kong Be-
fore Battle of Manila Bay.

Washington, Jan. 11.-Responding to
the senate's resolution of inquiry the
secretary of the navy today sent to the
senate a copy of Admiral Dewey's re-
port from Hong Kong, dated March
81, 1893, relative to the capture of Ma
Mia. The text of the report shows that
1t was made in response to a telegram
of inquiry from the secretary and the
admiral gives in detail the names of
the available vessels under his COM
mand and also a, list of SPANS vessels
and other means of defense at Ma
Mia. He stated that his own squadron
was in a high state of efficiency.
Speaking of the Spanish forces he said
it numbered about $4,000 soldiers of
all arms, in all the islands, of which
half are in the vicinity of Manila The
islands are now in state OF insurrec-
ton and my infOrmantS state that even
the Spanish soldiers who constitute on
ly a small part of the whole are dis
affected. Both ships and forts are in
need of ammunition"
To this statement he added the fol-
lowing: Il believe I am not overcon-
fdent in stating that with the squadron
could be taken and the defences at Ma
Mia reduced in one day. There is ev-
cry reason to believe that with Ma
Mia taken, or even blockaded, the rest
of the islands would fall either to the
insurgents or ourselves as they are only
held now through the support of the
navy and are dependent upon Manila for
supplies. Information has just reach
ed me that there are 5000 armed rebels
in camp near Manila, who are willing
to assist u.s.

Grain Letter

Chicago. Jan. 11.-WHEAT-The wheat
market has been exceedingly erratfc with
IN a narrow range and with a light trade.
There has been no motive for strength
except support from shorts. The export
situation is unchanged. demand being of
the hand to mouth variety. Clearances
were fair. but there was actually no new
business reported today 1t does not seem
reasonable that We can have any healthy
or sustained advance until the other side
buys freely and going on this theory
would sell wheat on hard spots.
CORN has been firm and more active.
1t has been helped by the strength in pro-
visions and has also felt the very small
country offerings. The elevator interests
have not only found it impossible to make
purchases west but western dealers have
been taking in hedges here. Liverpool
was I'D higher. Clearances 4S9, 900.
OATS were shade stronger although
trade was very dull. New York bought
more than any one else. Car scarcity and
rail rates are against shipments and lit
tie is being done. Receipts moderate.
PROVISIONS have rallied almost the
highest point reached a week ago and
buying orders were much more in evil
dence than offerings. The bull factor
more than anything else is the light
weight of present receipts and heavy lots
are in special demand. On this strong
market We believe it advisable to take
profits and await an opportunity to buy
cheaper. J. F. HARRIS.
