Sacramento Bee: The Gold-bug
press is not SO rsbid for the passage
of the finance bill in the Senate as it
was in the House. Can it be that
they have had their ears to the earth
and heard the rumble of disapproval
by the people? Is it possible that
Congressman begin to think that the
people should have an equal show
with bankers and brokers? Have
they commenced to realize that the
people are sovereignty?

The bureau of statistics gives out
that the exports of breadstuffs, cattle,
hogs. provisions, cotton and mineral
oils for the year 1899 show q total
value of s712, 0S1 ,925. This is a fall.
ing off from 1898 of SIT 900, 900.
which is due to a falling off in bread
stuffs and cotton. The harvests were
a little better abroad, and Germany
and England held back on cotton
because 1t was 1T cents higher last
Autumn than it was the year before.
They will have to buy it. though,
before another harvest. In manufac-
lures. iron and steel make as big a
showing as provisions and mineral
oils combined. The figures are so
big that they are confusing. The
exports Of mineral oils fell off 49,
DOC. 900 gallons. but they gained
twelve and q half million dollars in
value.

ate enough TO win The first Grand Prix
de Paris with The Ranger, and seeing
that an English horse had won on the
first occasion that this all-important
French race was contested for, he not
only gave munifcent donation toward
building the English church at Chan
tilly, but devoted the remainder Of his
winnings to the poor Of Paris. His ex-
ample has not been lost sight Of. and
every Englishman who has been for
tunste enough to win the Grand Prix
de Paris has always made g point OF
returning the money, with q view TO

CHARITY AND THE TURF.
Large Amounts Turned over for
Worthy objects by Wealthy
winners in England.

Many are the munifcent gifts which
owners Of raeehorses, after winning a
notable event to which is attached 3
large purse, have given TO various chari-
ties. But probably the greatest gift oS
this nature is that OF Sc. 900, which the
duke Of Westminster recently present
ed TO the Royal Alexandria hospital. At
Rhyl, being the sum won by his colt
Flying Fox in the Eclipse stakes. This
is by no means the frrt gift on the part
OF this noble sportsman Of . similar
nature.
The writer believes that one year the
duke Of Portland devoted all his win
nings on the turf 10 charitable pur-
poses. It was the year in which be was
married. and il was 3 charming and

beautiful duchess which led bis grace

There is one particular orphanage in

CHRISTIAN JOURNALISM.

The Topeka Capital makes an
announcement this week that is
UNIQUE in the history ofjournal-
ism. The Capital publishing
company will place its plant and
the entire editorial and business
control of the paper in the hands
OF the Rev. Chas. NJ. Sheldon, au.
thor of SIN His Steps," for six
days, that he may exemplify his
idea as to how a christian daily
newspaper should be run.
The enterprise of both Mr..
Sheldon and the Capital is COM
mendable; as an advertising scheme
it will undoubtedly be success,
but will prove absolutely nothing
as to the feasibility of conducting a
newspaper upon purely Christ
ian basis as measured by Sheldon.
The paper will sell during the
week it is published by the rever-
end gentleman, as people will
doubtless buy it simply to see what
it looks like.
But after all, the standard OF
christianity should not he out OF
reach of the masses, and we be-
lieve that it is not so entirely be-
yond the everyday life of the peo-
pie as some would have US believe.
The fact is every newspaper
and every other business ought
to be run upon a basis of right
eousness and absolute honesty,
which is not beneath the standard
of christian man or woman. The
Pharasees of Christ's time found
fault with his teaching for the. very
reason that it reached the common
people and was not exclusive, and
his denunciation of the self right
eous hypocrites of his day is the
most scathing in all of the litera-
ture of the world. The halo of
mysticism that has gathered about
the christian character ought to be
dispslled, and can dispelled by
adopting the bible standard of bus
mess snd social life. "As ye would
that men do unto you, do ye even
so unto them" )"

No Reason For 1t.

There seems to be a desire on
the part of one or two individuals
TO have the United States court
now in session adjourned, alleging
as a reason the prevalence of
smallpox. They say that it is
dangerous and there is likelihood
of the disease spreading from the
gathering of witnesses.
Precautions have been taken by
the town council and town board
of health. The national board of
health is using due diligence in
ferreting out suspected cases, and
there is every reason to believe
that the disease is under control.
A due regard fol the health of
the people and cafe and conserv-
ativs plan has been taken under
consideration by the court, and it
is thought that the continuation
will not be inimical to the health
Of the community.
Judge Thomas is no doubt q
perfectly safe man under con-
ditions of this kind and Marshal
Bennett is q good counselor, and
whenever they deem it necessary
they will attend to the court bus
mess in a manner satisfactory 10

SHOT FULLOF HOLES
The Defeat is a Crushing Blow
to Mr. Bryan.

Lincoln, Neb. Nov. Z. ITO have
been shot full of holes'' is the way
Bryan's closest friends refer to yes
terday's election. The crushing defeat
of the Nebraskan has brought deep
gloom to the populist national head
quarters. Bryan's cherished hope
was for plurality of the popular
vote whether he was successful or
defeated, and the blow staggers him,
The great republican gainsin Lincoln
and the state were least expected by
Bryan. This morning it appears
more than probable that Mckinley
has carried the state. The fusionists
hope to control the legislature which
will secure Bryan seat in the United
States senate. As soon as Bryan
learned of his defeat for the presi-
dency his first question was concern
ing the legislature race between
Poynter, fusionist and Diterich re.
publican for governor. 1t is very
close. Another sorrow for Bryan is
the blow dealt his friend Pettigrew
in South Dakota.

the principal city of Nebraska, lost
in population instead ofgaining. Des
Moinss, in Iowa, through invest
ments in manufacturing and general
industrial activities, won great in
crease in population. Iowa increased
her ratio of gain over the preceding
decade. Nebraska, which almost
quadrupled her population from 1870
TO 1880 and more than doubled it
between 1880 and 1890, can show a
gain of only about 10000 between
1890 and 1900, the period covered by
the Populistic agitation.
Kansas, making stronger fight
against Organism, or Populism, has a
somewhat better record, but the state
that trebled its population between
1870 and 1880 and made an increase
of 431 900 in the next decade reports
a gain Of only 42,4OO in the last de-
cade.
The figures tell the story of what
men like Simpson, PETER, Allen, and
Bryan can cost commonwealth when
they are once allowed to push them
selves into Office and to try their mad
cap policies in practice.
