AS DEMOCRATS SEE 1T.

The de--ocrats in congress. have not
oeen able 10 agree on . Philippine pol
lcy as Yet. y few days ago Representa-
tive Williams, OF Mississippi. offered a
series OF resolutions which. il is under
stood, express the views OF Mr. Bryan.
Those resolutions propose that the
United States shall recognize the right
Of the FilipirOs TO national iuCepeuG-
ence. and shall withdraw its land and
sea forces upon 1.-THE Inauguration Of q

A PARTY OF JOB LOTS.
The Democracy at Present In
Queer Mixture Of Political
Odds and Ends.

Recently o member of the house IN
debate referred TO MIR. Cleveland as the
greatest democrat since jackson. and
the report says the remark caused de-
riSive laughter on the democratic side
The incident serves TO show the torn-up
condition of the party. cleveland is
the only man the democrats have re-
elected since Jacksou'> DAY. He re
ceived the nomiua ion three times. He
i the only democrat who has reached
the presidency since 1886. His second
term expired less than three years ago.
ana yet his name eNcites nothing but
sarcas tic merrimeut among the demo
Gratis in congress. The point seems 10
be confession that the one demo
cratic president in half century was
one too many. His own party. after re
peatedly bcstowing upon him their
highest houorS through n long term
of years. have nothing left for him but
n mocAirg laugh. If tSey are right now
they were wrong in 1854. 1855 and 1892.
and are simply acknow dginw an uu-
limited capacity for making mistakes.
No doubt Mr.. Cleveland has some
friends and admirers left in democratic
circles. but they. can have little i'm com.

organization. The party is split up in
so many ways that it is nest 10 impossi-

WORKING OVERTIME
A Not Jnwelcome Variation Upon the
Free Trade Tune Of No Work
and No Pay.

Many industrial plants report that as
much as % per cent. Of the amounts at
present carried on their pay rolls repre-
sents overtime work. Some of the com
panies are in fact working their en-
ployes double time. The earnings of
these companies are also growing larger
and larger each week.
Working overtime is not the state of
affairs which anyone. whether one of
the overworked or not. would like to see
made permanent. 1t is a not unvel-
come variation. however. upon the old
tune of no work and no wages. or of
half time work al half-rate wages.
which we had 10 listen 10 during all the
long weary days when the country was
in the hands OF the free traders. and
American wCrkmen were sacrificed 10
foreigners. There lies with the work
men themselves no escape from idle
ness except through the Indirect power
of their votes. which can change hard
times TO prosperity. but there is ALWAYS
ready in their hands a remedy for over
work There are plenty of others TO
help them 20 remedy. too. when. as is
the case to-day. there are thousands up

work any longer than we choose. We
can always stop. And we can rest easy
in the surety that we will have enough

it so by maintaining protection to
American industries. On the whole.
these are pretty good times

NO TARIFF TINKERING.
The DinEley BiII Has Proved Itself
an Ample and SntIsfnctory Rev
erue Producer.

Representative Payne. Of New York
chairman of the house committee on
ways and means, is certain that the
present congress will do no tariff tin
kering. The Fifty-sixth congress has
important work on it's hands," said he
in a recent intervie~. There will be
no tariff legislation during the present
session. The condition of the country
is to-day thoroughly prosperous and
will continue so unless ill-advised and
radical legislation affecting the bust
ness and financial interests of the ma
ton is enacted during the next few
years.
THE country demands and should
have settled and assured policy in re-
spect TO those questions. The Dngley
law as a revenue producer has more
than satisfied those responsible for it's
enactment. and has proved gratifying
to the people of the country generally.
at has furnished ample revenue TO
carry on the government from the mo-
ment the sugar and wool schedules be-
gan TO operate. | am convinced that
the happy results il has produced will
be permanent"
Representative Payne is right The
Dingley law has proved so satisfactory
and in all ways beneficial TO the coun-
try that the people have no desire to
interrupt its operations for some time

PROSPERITY OF THE PEOPLE
shown by the Report of the Comp
trOIler of the Currency Re
Gently Issued.

The manner in which the restored
prosperity Of mckinley and protec-
ton" has touched the finances Of the
American people is indicated by re-
port recently issued by Comptroller of
Che Currency Dawes. In collecting the
data entering into his report nearly
10000 reports from banks have been ex-
amined and compiled. The results of
the investigation indicate a magnitude
OF banking resources and rate of
growth in number Of deposit accounts
which is unparalleled in the financial
history Of the world. II is shown that
IN the past ten years deposit accounts
have increased in number from G.7Os.-
"1l in 1889 10 13.153.s74 in 1899: that
the increase in the number OF borrowers
IS much less than the increase i'm the
number Of depositors; that the average
deposit of the individual or corporation
has greatly increased; that the rate Of
interest ON loans has decreased; that
the aggregate Of individual deposits has
increased from s3.77C.410.412 in 1ssg TO
S1j13.9j4,3G1 in 1890; and that in ten
years the aggregate Of loans has in
creased from SJ.475.272.2C2 10 S57j1.-
