An Exploded Sensation.

The Detroit Evening News of Satur-
day night, under flaming headlines,
published letter alleged to have been
written by the republican national COM
mittee to Andrew Geek. of this city,
Offering to employ him in the campaign
and to reward him literally" etc. The
News also intimated that thousands of
similar letters had been sent out and
that a wholesale attempt was being
made to bride the voters of the country.
The intended sensation was soon ex.
ploded, and the laugh is on the News
and Mayor Maybury
The whole thing was an absolute fake.
The letter was never outside the city
until taken away by Mayor Maybury.
The facts are as follows: The gentle.
man to whom the letter was addressed,
Mr.. Andrew Geek, of this city, has the
reputation of being considerable of a
Joker and quite talker. Two of the
men in the shop in which he works re.
ceiyed letters the first of last week from,
Hon. n. H. Hanna, of Indianapolis,
urging the Importance Of sending sound
money men to congress this fall. Mr..
Geek was not favored with one Of these
letters and seemed to take the matter
to heart. asking different ones why it
was that he did not get one. Some of
the parties who heard him ask the ques-
ton determined to see that he had a
letter and accordingly wrote the one
which the News printed. The gentle
man who took the letter to the post
office-a few minutes before the arrival
of the special train bearing Gov. Roose-
welt and party-asked if the letter could
be delivered at once, saying that it was
ga josh" and that unless it could be de.
livered at once he did not care to send
it. The envelope bore the postmark
| "Owosso." Soon after Mr.. Geek re-
ceived the letter he handed 1t to u. B.
McCaughna, the democratic candidate
for representative, who in turn deliver
ed it to Mr. Maybury. Mr.. Geek states
that the envelope with the postmark
Owosso was also delivered to these
gentlemen, who might have known
from the postmark alone that the whole
thing was a joke. 1t was, however, too
good chance to attempt to make a
little political capital, and SO the letter
was given out for publication and will
undoubtedly appear in the democratic
press all over the country. 1t shows
how hard pressed the democracy must
be when it will attempt trick of this.
kind.

Our Splendid Administration.

Harper's Weekly has never been one of
the papers to acknowledge allegiance to the
republican party and in fact as long as the
democratic party remained true to the tradi-
tons of the democratic party 1t remained
one of its staunchest supporters. Those
were the days when it seemed possible for
fair share of the brainiest as we'll as the
most patriotic Americans to be allied with
the democratic party. When 1t became no
longer possible to follow their patriotism,
common sense, and the democratic party at
the same time, the Weekly chose to follow
the lead of its patriotism and its common
sense until the time should come when the
democratic party might get nearer in line
with both. The following is the way in
which the conduct of the present admins
tration appeals to the Weekly:
beginning with the Spanish War, which
was sure to come sooner or later and which
had merely been postponed from year to
year until conditions became intOlerable and
continued peace impossible, continuing
down through the vexatious and compli-
Gated problems arising from the victory of
Manila Bay, to the present time, when the
greatest sagacity, the greatest 6rmness, and
the greatest national cohesion are required
in meeting the intricate questions In China,
1t has been manifest to all intelligent OBJ
servers that the old easy-going days when
Uncle Sam could sit on fence and white
while his neighbors struggled have gone
forever. To shirk the responsibilities of
the hour would cover every man, woman
and child of right feeling In this country
with shame, and an administ! alton which
had shown the slightest disposition to craw-
fish and scuttle In the face of such burdens
would have been driven from power by a
wrathful and outraged electorate with such
emphatic celebrity that there would be no
vestige of II LETT. 1t has been our good
fortune that our affairs of state have been
conducted by men of sturdy principle, In
which lie the traits of honesty, conscience,
and common sense, allied to frmness and
dignity which have commanded the reluc-
tobty BiNcu IcfpcCt VI TIC civilized WOrl0.
1t should be matter of pride to the Ameri-
can people that the delicate affairs of China
have been handled at Washington with
firm grasp, with tactful consideration for
the rights Of others, with calm Judgment;
in short, with the highest craftsmanship.
With the nations of Europe eying each
other jealousy and inclined to snarI, with
bulling threats issuing from the lips of
emperors and kings, the President and
cabinet of the United States have pursued
the calm and even tenor of their policy
with confidence which the end has amply
justified.
Voters OF the United States should re-
member that 1t is this administration they
are a>ked to overthrow In behalf of scul-
Ting policy, In behalf Of policy of contrac-
tiop, in behalf Of policy of cowardice and
dishonor."

The Worlds Greatest Banking Power

The United States now leads the world
as banking power. Even as long ago as
in 1890 the famous statistician Mulhall esti-
mated the banking power of this country to
be considerably greater than that of Great
Britain, while the annual report which
Comptroller Dawes is now just completing
will show that the resources of the country
In the line of banking facilities, into which
the comptroller has made thorough and ex-
haustiye Investigations, have increased In a
most remarkable degree. Those who have
had chance to know affirm that the figures
which the report will give will show that
the United States is far in the lead of all
other countries in the matter of banking
power, and that even Wanted England with
her many years and generations of su-
premacy In banking power has been left far
behind. The latest figures show that the
sC-called banking power of the United
States, embracing thu total amount of cap
tai stock, right of issue, and bank deposits,
is the enormous amount OF Ss,663, 900, 600,
while that of Great Britain, the entire
United Kingdom, is fully $1,000, 600, 900
less. Talk about 1t being necessary to get
cheaper money In order to free ourselves
from the moneyed tyranny OF England
Why we are the money power of the
earth today. When England or Russia, or
any OF the other countries of the world
which are engaged In doing something,
want to get the money with which to tx
plot their gigantic commercial undertak-
ings 1t is to the United States that they
turn with the gilt edged bonds which they
wish to float, and 1t is to the people of the
United States that these same European
and even Asiatc countries will be paying
back the yellow metal for years to come in
interest on those same bond. And now,
Just as would be expected. 1t is beginning
to develop that not only Is the United
States Il @ money power OF the world but 1t
is preemipently the banking power as well.
Truly the country is expanding, but 1t is
the kind OF expansion for which the
American heart should be filed to over
flowing with gratitude and thanksgiving to
a providence which seems to expect great
things of American people and To- have en-
dowed them richly with the mos powerful
things Of earth to assist them in the ac-
compishment Of these wonderful works Tor
civilization and the truest liberty.

Tohn Y. Martin.

John Y. Martin, candidate for county
clerk of Shiawassee county, needs
more than passing mention. His
grandfather, Samuel Martin, an early
settler of Venice, and his maternal
grandparent, Titus Yerkes, were both
well known in the eastern part of the
county, in their day. and the stalwart-
ness of their repubicanism was also
matter of common knowledge.
He was born thirty seven years ago,
in the township of Caledonia, and at an
early date, took classical course in
the high school at Corunna-graduat-
ing in 1884. His qualifications were
such that he has not been disregarded
by his neighbors, among whom he has
lived since his birth.
1t is an acknowledged fact in human
experience, that 1.-THE prophet is not
without honor save in his own country"
and the case is very exceptional where
young man is regarded as having
wisdom fit for official duty, by those
who have known him since his earliest
advent.
1t will surprise many to learn that
even at his present age, he has held
eight terms of the supervisorship of his
township, and been once elected to the
craftsmanship of the board 1t is an
office too that peculiarly comes within
the common observation of all the
electors, and deals directly with a SUBJ
Ject upon which they are more sensi.
tive than almost any other-viz., taxa
ton! 1t is hardly necessary to add that
his qualifications must have been of the
most peculiar character.
We further observe that this ex-.
perience on the board of supervisors. is
of the utmost Importance to the in
cumbent of the county clerks office.
His most intricate and arduous duties
are connected with the deliberations of
that body, and nothing within the off,
cial experience of supervisor is with
out Importance in the matter of equip
ment for the clerical office!
Mr.. Martin, too, is a most excellent
reader and in his oral exercises in the
circuit court, there will be both finish
and dispatch.
We desire to note, too, the fact that
John Y. Martin has been Justice of
the peace ana has alreany been con-
stituted Judge and 'divider" among
his people
1t was not surprising therefore that
he should be selected by the representa-
tive wisdom of the republican PAL ty in
convention assembled, for the office of
county clerk, not more on account of
his being an agriculturist, than on the
score of his special fitness!
Mr.. Martin rs young farmer who

Talk about the American tariff being the
father of all the trusts! Here is an item of
news for those republicans who have been
tempted to believe the democratic assertions
that the American protective tariff Is to
blame for all the trusts in this country.
The item comes in the form of London
dispatch to the New York Herald of last
Friday, and is to the effect that the English
salt trade is greatly excited over the dis
covery that an American syndicate has
been quietly at work buying shares In the
Salt Union, "a combination of producers
which enjoys monopoly in the United
Kingdom" with the evident intention of
acquiring the majority of the holdings.
The American syndicate Is said to already
have 81, $50, 900 invested In the shares of
the British monopoly. There is food for
considerable thOt In the item. The fact of
the existence of such trust or monopoly In
free trade England Is of itself worthy of
note as well as the fact that 1t Is evil
IDENTIFY profitable one or the American
Yankee would never have set out to gain a
controlling interest In 1t. Another feature
of the case which will bear emphasis is
that the American organization SO far from
being obliged to rely on being fostered In Its
purposes by the American tariff, Is spread
ing out for larger territory and not only
goes into foreign country, thus becoming
quite international in its scope of business,
but 1t makes its first attack on the very
country of all countries where the demo-
cratic free traders would have us believe 1t
would go last of any country on the fsce Of
the earth, to free trade England herself.
And when you stop to think Of 1t, just
fancy II you can, how much longer 1t would
take the men who have the money and the
brains to control the output of any product
in the lInned States, to effect an interns-
tional comb nation with those producers In
foreign countries who would interfere
with the carrying out of their purposes
II they were not taken In In some such
way. Whatever be the remedy for trusts
and there are unquestionably so many
abuses that there must be some remedy
found which shall preserve for the welfare
Of society their useful features while plac-
ing their features which are likely to abuse
under some sert Of effective control-It must
be evident from such trade items rs the ore
above referred to that the remedy most en-
phatcally does not. lie In free trade.
