SILVER.


It Is not fair to make Mr.. Bryan en-
tirely responsible, as many Democrats
are doing. for the silver heresy, in No
vember, 1890, after the Democrats car
ried a two-thirds Congress, the Cincin-
natl Enquirer declared for the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio
of l6 to indianapolis Journal.
If the memory of the Journal will go
q little farther, it will recall the fact
that after the month Of March, 1897,
President Mckinley sent commission
to Europe to sec if silver remonetiza-
ton could not be effected; that the
commission obtained the favor Of the
French government; that it then went
to London, and, backed by the French
ambassador, there met the English
cabinet: tina: it was all agreed upon to
do as Sir Michael Hicks Beach had
promised a year previous; that the first
stun blipg block was the Sir John
Hamilton crowd Of India who wanted
their pay in gold; that then some Lon
don bankers came in with their protest
against it: that then Secretary Gage.
in the worst faith shown by a cabinet
officer, interposed his obje ctions in a
way which gave the foreigners chance
to charge that the government of the
United States did not favor the move
ment, and that except for some three
or four Englishmen in India. some cent
per cent bankers in London and the
Secretary Of the Treasury Of the Uni
ted States, silver would have been fully
restored and the world would have
been infinitely better for the act. 1t is
just as well to say, too, that while that
question has passed. while there is no
occasion in this country through do
nestle and national matters to agitate
the silver question any more, could
that have been done at that time when
great majority of the people of this
country wanted it done, there would
have been no trouble now about the
currency of the Orient. which is vexing
statesmen SO much. And it is just as

does not suit him, he does not get up
tell him to stop his darned old hotel!
Well, hardly. He sets that dish on one
side and wades into some of the many
dishes that do suit him. 1t is different
with some newspaper readers. They
find an article occasionally that does
not suit them exactly, and, without
stopping to think it may please hun
dreds of other readers, make a grano

Trusts In EurODe.

The operations of trusts are by no
means confined to this country. They
are getting strong hold in Europe. In
Germany and Austria their extent and
power are as great as in the United
States, but the plan of organization is
materially different. In England within
the last three years very active move
ment has set in toward the concentration
of industry into large, single corpora
lions in form similar to those of the
United States. The movement in France
is very evident. The industrial commits
sion in its report says that there is rela-
lively little objection to combinations In
Europe and in some countries the gov
eruments and people seem to believe
that they are needed to meet modern
industrial conditions. They believe that
they should be carefully supervised by
the government, and If necessary, con-
trolled.
The great degree of publicity in the
organization of corporations has largely
prevented the evils arising from stock
watering and has evidently had much
fleet in keeping prices steady and rea-
sonable, and in keeping wages steady
and Just. There seems to be no inclina
ton toward the passage of laws which
shall attempt to kill the combinations
That is believed to be impossible and
unwise. Laws should attempt only to
control, and that apparently through
publicity, though the governments may
be given restrictive power in exceptional
cases. There is little or no belief that
the protective tariff is responsible for
their existence.

Skowhegan Grange Field Day.

For many years it has been the custom
OF Skowhegan Grange to hold field day
sometime In August, and at some point
of interest within easy reach of all its
members. This year it was decided to
hold this annual gathering at the home
farm of Sheldon H. Beal, some three
miles out from Skowhegan village In
Cornville. Bro. Besls farm contains
ZIG acres of field, pasture and woodland
There are 20 acres in orcharding and
even In this off year for apples he esti-
mates his apple crop at 800 barrels of
merchantable fruit. There are "a acres
OF sweet corn and he has cut and stored
of this years crop 70 tons of hay.
Other crops are In proportion. Besides
being most productive farm the loca.
ton Is one that attracts the attention of
all those who admire the beautiful scea-
cry which nature 80 lavishly presents at
this particular season OF the year. At u
high point, just to the south of Bro.
Bea's farm buildings the eye sweeps a
wide extent of country in every direction.
The village of Skowhegan, the hills and
valleys OF Canaan, Athens, Scion and
Madison as we'll as points beyond, di-

of nature and all to be seen and appreci-
ated at the point above mentioned.

gan Grange assembled in large numbers,
Wednesday, Aug. IA, for day of good
will and enjoyment. Bro. Beal and his
mother, Elvira F. Beal, opened wide their
doors and the gates Of their orchard and

members Of the grange and visiting
friends most cordial welcome. Bro.
Beal furnished good supply of lemon.

st. Louis Globe Democrat The ques.
ton of Canadian annexation is settling
itself, so far as regards large number
of Canadians. A heavy immigration
from Canada into the Uuited States is
taking place, notwithstanding the
reports that the movement In the past
few years is from the United States into
Canada. The influx of Canadians into
this country is one of the reasons for the
slow rate of increase In population on
the other side Of the United States
northerly boundary. The drift In our
direction will continue 80 long as Canada
remains dependency of nation on the
other side Of the Atlantic. Even indie
pendence would not turn the tide in any
perceptible degree. Nothing except
political union with the United States
will ever give the territory north of the
st. Lawrence, the lakes and the 10th
parallel the place 10 the world which its
natural riches entitle 1t to and which its
ambitious sons desire.

Persons who have need TO consult econ.
omy may as well begin figuring on a
winter when the cost of living will be
higher than usual. The failure in the
yield of corn will be great. The LIST of
August table Of the agricultural depart
ment promises only 81 per cent. of full
crop per acre. The acreage planted was
large, but there will be shortage which
will affect not only the price of that grain
but the price Of meat, of cattle and hogs.
The wheat crop, while good one, is not
an extraordinary one, and, owing to
scanty crops abroad, there will be an
extraordinary demand for export, max
ing the home price for flour high one.
The potato crop makes bad showing,
that having suffered damage only less
than the damage to corn. The apple
crop will be small. All summer vege
table crops in the West and South have
been injured, and command uncommon
prices. The same drought that has les
sened their growth and yield has dim
ished the winter supply. 1t will not be
a cheap year in the matter of table sup
plies. This is settled already, for no
possible improvement of conditions can
overcome the unfortunate losses.

Business Situation.

Bradstreets report for last week says
An improvement alike In tone and de-
mand Is noted In trade circles, while the
most optimistic reports come from the
Northwest. Several large markets In
the corn belt send more cheerful reports.
Weather and crop conditions in the
Northwest stimulate iobbing demand in
nearly all lines. Southern trade advices
are marred by damages inflicted by the
severe storm. Timely rains have improv.
ed cotton in the Mississippi valley and
advices from the South Atlantic States
are Of a heavy yield.
Railway gross earnings for the first
week of August show gain of ia per
cent. over last year. The export move
ment In wheat continues heavy, more
than offsetting large decreases in ship
ments OF corn, and this feature, with de.
creases in supplies, due to the falling of
in the first rush of winter wheat to mar
ket has constituted supporting ele.
ment and resulted In advances. Corn
prices reached the top again this week,
on government crop indication of l 400
600, 900 bushels, and the oats gained Oh a
further reduction of estimates.
In textiles the talk of strike, with
the necessary curtailed production, has
not strengthened print cloths, which are
3-16 cent lower in the week. Wooden
goods appear to be better situated than
those of cotton, and in raw products the
low and fine grades Of wool are firm
with some tending upward, while raw
cotton is without change.
Wheat, Including -four exports for the
week, aggregate 9,039,76l bushels, as
against 1882, 1919 bushels, last week.
Wheat exports, July to date, aggre-
gate 44,072,332 bushels, as against 49,
944, 996 last season. Corn exports ag-
gregate sos, s07 bushels, as against $780,
ia, last week. July to date, exports
are 1927, las bushels, as against 1885,
$40, last season.
Bank clearings for the week aggre-
gated $1,645, 729, $3.50, a decrease of Is
per cent from last week, gain of 80
per cent over this week, year ago.
Business failures number us, as
against 1856, last week, l6S in this week
a year ago.
