Who shall hereafter say that the
British nation lacks humor or the ca
pacity for happiness? Has it not
made new record as the Mark Tapely
Of nations cheerful and even ecstatic

Peace is all the same as war to this
rolliclling people. They have cheered
and shouted and sung and rung their

over the conclusion of peace as they
did over the beginning of the war.
They are bound to rejoice anyhow and

their burned farms, loan them IN

call for more frenzies of loyal rejoicing
and liquid refreshment.

The Present Attitude Of Demo.
Gratis Toward the Money
Question.

The democratic party feels satisfied
with its record on the money ques-
ton. In fact it is more than satisfied
with It's achievements. In 1896 it
waged the greatest political contest
in the history Of the country in favor
of the quantitative theory of money.
For several years prior to that time
the scarce money schemers had every
thing their own way. The circulat-
ing medium of the country, its bust
ness Likelihood, was steadily reduced
and business depression, panics, and
bond issues followed as natural re-
suits. While every legitimate indus
try languished, the money changers
were buying securities and municipal
and government bonds at prices far
below their value. In that way they
were assuring for themselves man.
moth fortunes at the expense of the
masses. The democratic party de-
clared in favor Of the free coinage of
both gold and silver, as the best way
to combat the evil of that time, and
prosecuted and educational campaign
in favor of the quantitative theory of
money. 1t was a desperate contest in
which all the forces of plutocracy in
both of the great parties we're arraycd
on the side of the republican candi-
dates. BY the use of millions of mon
ey they won by ascratch; they secured
the Offices, but the principle for which
the democrats contended was also VIC
torious' AS soon as the republicans
regained control of national affairs,
they abandoned tho confidenc sophis-
tries, upon which they fought the
campaign, and recognized the truth
of the cumulative theory of money.
They Immediately commenced to tie
wise plans for an increase in the coun.
try's circulating medium. Every
power of the administration was used
to increase the countryis money, even
to the coinage of tens of millions OF
silver. The new gold discoveries in
Alaska helped in the right direction,
and at the present time the country
has fairly recovered from the attic.

Like a majority of democrats, Henry
Watterson has very poor opinion OF
Grover Cleveland. In recent edito.
rial in the Conrier-Journal he saws;
'That Cleveland is an ill-tempered,
self-willed man, having neither the
intellectual training nor the moral
and pOlitica inspiration for democrat
ic fellowship or leadership; that he
knows little, and cares less, about tar
i'll reform; that such sympathies as he
has are not on the side of the plain,
common people, and still less with the
lowlY and the poor, but on the side Of
the strong, the mighty and the great;
that he is personally an migrate and a
glutton; that, because of his selfish
ness and brutishness, he alienated ev-
cry democrat of consequence in con-
gress who would notserve him blindly;
that, in short, he found the party a
noble unit and left it wreck. Where
he is best known he is most deteSted.'
