THE PASSING OF A MENACE.

The concessions which the mine operators
have made to the anthracite miners is a
great victory for the men. 1t is also much
TO the credit of the mine operators that
they have acted promptly in the matter.
President Mitchell and his associates have
shown high qualities Of leadership in organ
izing and holding the large body Of men
from any general violence. The initiative
was taken to come to terms by the larger
capitalists interested in the coal railway
properties. One Of the men who has put
forth all his influence, first to prevent and
next to end the strike. is Senator Hanna,
the chairman of the Republican national
committee. 1t has been stated that he had
conferences with President Mitchell; it is
known that Mr.. Hanna has always ex-
and from the first he has predicted that the
strike would end at an early day. without
violence Just what he predicted few
days ago has come to pass-the strike is
practically at an end. The country gen.
orally will regard the settlement of the
tIouDic Wltn SduSIdCtlOn, since the SITlke
was a standing menace to the business. as
well as an interference with the coal sup
ply of large section of the country. The
menace of this strike removed, and the
menace Of Organism a rapidly diminishing
quantity, the outlook is more hopeful than
1t has been for weeks
1t is stated above that the country gen.
orally views the adjustment of the strike
with satisfaction. There is an exception -
the Democratic managers are not graft
fed Mr.. Bryan, Chairman Jones, Boss
Croker and their following would have
been delighted to see the strike eliminate
in violence and repression. Such collision
would. in their Judgment. have given Mr..
Bryan several States. in spite of the fac:
that Republicans are in no way response
bic for the strike The Bryan organs
have done all they could do to embitter
the men against their employers. Even Mr..
Bryan, in his many addresses, has not
expressed a desire to see the strike ended.
Therefore it is safe to class the adjust
ment of the coal strike as one of the mis-
fortunes which have recently overtaken
the Bryan party.

MORTGAGE INVESTMENTS.
Bonds and MORTGAGES (Chicago.)

Bonds and Mortgages (Chicago)
There is no doubt that many investments
of small capitalists are held in allegiance
ton. These moderate investors are par
ticularly cautious. for. while they realize
that the reelection of Mckinley will mean
the continuation of the present area Of
prosperity, they also fear that the success
of Bryan would be the greatest disaster
that could befall the American business
world. They cannot afford to take any
chances, and while the election of Bryan
remains within the range of possibility
they are undoubtedly justified in going
slow.
While the large business concerns of the
country are apparently running steadily
because of the confidence in the continu-
ance of the present administration, openly
displayed by the majority of business men.
the small investors, who derive their means
of support from investments in bonds and
mortgages, have withdrawn temporarily
from the business world, and as a result
the business of mortgage loans is COM
paratively dull and stagnant and in mod
flied form similar to the conditions that
existed previous to the election of 1896
These people feel justly that if Bryan is
elected an attack will undoubtedly be
made on wealth, as shown by mortgages
and bonds. The investors in mortgages are
entirely men and women with capital
ranging from 81, 900 to $4,000. Millionaires
and large concerns seldom invest in mort
cages. They prefer to get more direct re-
turns. The Vanderbilts and Astors have
no mortgages. The bulk of money invest
ed in mortgages comes from widows and
orphans. If widow has 5000 and invests
in mortgages, bringing her almost an in
come of per cent, or $780, she expects to
get her money back in gold, just as she
lent IT. The fear that she will be obliged
to take payment In deprecated currency,
which would result from the passage of a
free-sflver bill, makes her conservative.
and she refuses to take risks. AS a result
she keeps her money and lives on part of
the principal until she can lend it with Sc
curity
These small capitalists are unanimously
opposed to the doctrines of Bryan. They
cannot be classed among the wealthy. The
little money they have was saved from
month to month by themselves or their
Woodworking husbands fathers. 1t is
these worthy persons Of small means who
would be hurt the most by the success of
the Democratic party.

The sound-money parade to take place
in New York on Nov. 9 promises to be the
largest political demonstration ever held in

marshal of the parade. says it is growing
almost beyond control He said to re-
porter on Tuesday:
The dry goods men will. of course. turn
out so many men that no one else can
nope TO rival them in numbers. 1t is ex-
pected that there will be fully $1,000 dry
goods men In the parade alone. The rep
resentauves OF the trade have promised at
least 5000 men. and the central division"
expects to add 1900 TO these numbers. The
bankers and the brokers think they will
have between 1000 and 5000 men, the jew
elers Will have 1900, the hatters are sure
or SVOO, the lawyers say that they will turn
out 1900. while the paper trade in all its
branches expects TO make showing of
over 1900 men. The confectioners expect
to turn out about 1850 men, and the cleo
tricians will have a showing of at least q,
900.
This parade will represent business in
terests and not patronage and plumber. as
did the Croker Bryan demonstration.

There is not labor leader in the country
that takes the Bryan view regarding this
matter; on the contrary, President Com
pers said more than year ago that thus
far the so-called trusts had been beneficial
rather than the reverse to labor because
they gave more constant employment and
wages than did men owning small plants.
Mr.. Bryan is travelling about the coun-
try striving to interrupt the generally good
relations between capital and labor by
setting the latter against the former. The
adjustment of the coal strike should lead
him to see that he cannot do this. Much
as 1t might tend to improve his political
fortunes. William j. Bryan will not be
able to divide the productive forces in this
country into two warning elements; but
attempting to do 1t is an infamy. Now,
adding to this infamy, he has insulted the
manhood and independence of the mass OF
intelligent wage earners
