FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1898.

Honest Money in The House.

If Senator Teller and his silver col-
leagues supposed they were taking the
offensive in foreing the twenty-year-
old Stanley Matthews’ resolution
through the Senate and sending it to
the House, they are undeceived by this
time. The defeat of the resolution ' in
'Li’aa- House by a majority of fifty, on a
note that followed party lines very
I‘lklsely, should convince Mr. Teller and
his friends that the House of Repre-
sentatives, elected upon the issue of
maintaining the gold standard, has not
weakened, but is standing to its guns,
and that if anybody is to be on the de-
fensive hereafter it will be the cheap
silver advocates'and not the friends of

revived a financial heresy
which the country voted when times
were hard and business was depressed,

10 .make it a hopeless issue in a period

of business revival with ample time for

Ehe exposure of its fallacy and inherent

dishonesty by public discussion.

Itis not enough for the House to do-
eat a dishonest financial negation.
The challenge of the free coinage ad-

‘ vocates in the Senate should now be
met by the passage through the House
of an honest currency measure based
upon the recommendations of the Mon-
etary Commission and the Secretary of

the Treasury. Such a measure should
he sent to the Senate before the ad-
iournmcnt of Congress, placing upon
that body the responsibility for the de‘
feat of a sound and sensible currency
law. Upon the maintenzinceleof the
nation‘s faith with its creditors and the
establishment of our currency system
upon the soundest possible basis the
friends of the honest fulfillment of pub-
lic and private contracts should force
the the ‘ election of

a Representatives

in November next. The House did,

well in burying the Teller resolution
under an emphatic adverse-majority.
lt will do still better when it has passed

a wise and sensible currency measure-

and madcitthe» supreme issue of the
coming Congressional elections.
The Vote for Cheap'llloney.

The United States Senate passed a
hint re’solntion a few days a ago open-
;‘73' repudiating the sound money policy
accepted by all the civilized nations,
and proclaiming the desire of the Sen-
ate to dishonor our national credit and
tiring us down upon a plane with the

semi-civilized and barbarous nations of
the world. NO such stain could have
been put upon the American Republic
with the people of the country fairly
l represent-ed in the Senate.

An analysis of the vote by States cast
393' cheap money and the destruction of
public and private credit, shows how
utterly voiceless the people of the
Uhited States are in the Senate, says
the Philadelphia Times. The Sena-
tors from twenty States voted solid for
cheap money, and they represented
less than 20,000,000 of the American
people. Of those twenty States nine
have an aggregate population of less

Ethan 2,000,009,. or but. little more than

,fanecthird the population of Pennsyl-
vania, yet these nine States cast eigh-
twen Votes for national repudiation.
while Pennsylvania, with new ly three
times the population, could rest but
alto votes for honest money and the
.mintenance of national credit.

The majority in the Senate in favor
of repudiation was but fifteen. Had
the nine States whose Senators repre-

, sent less than 2,000,000 of aggregate
population according to the last cen-
sus, been put upon equality with Penn-
sylvania or New York in representing
the people, there would have been a

positive majority for honest money. It 9

votes in the United States Senate, and
appear to drag the people of the nation
down into the mire of national dishonor.

In the House, where the pebple are
'fairly represent-ed, no such disgraceful
record can be made. ' The repudiation
resolution sent to the House by the
Senate will be overwhelmingly defeat-
e'l .jfit ever reaches a vote, and the
friends of public and private credit
and of general industrial and business
"prosperity, should bring the quest-ion
before the popular branch of (l‘ongress
at an early day, and let the voice of
the people of the nation be recorded
with emphasis against the petty pocket
States of the \Vest, which are influenced
by the interests of a single industry
that does not employ half a million
people in all its varied ramifications.

In short, the expression of the Senate
is a libel upon the people of} the Unit—
ed States, and it should be an impres-
sive lesson to the popular branch of-
Congress, representing the people
against the admission of Oklahoma,
New Mexico and Arizona. The great
industrial interests of the country can-
not afford to be made. the plaything of
petty pocket States which-Ewould dis-
honor ~the nation and plunge us into
business and inlustria. anarchy in
the vain hope of henclitting the inter-
terests 0f the silver States.

Where Protection Worked Well.

The two hundred thousand coal min-
ers of the west have reason to be sat-
isfied with the change of policy which
came with the inauguration of McKin-
ley as president says the Norwich Bul~
They have received an advance

AA‘
vv'

letin.
of 10 per cent in wages and been given
an eight~h0ur day. This is a gratify-
ing change for the coal miners of Penn-
sylvania, Ohio, and Indiana. who have
been earning small wages and endur-
ing many privations.

This could not have been accom-
plished under the IVilson law, and it
has not only been made possible by
change in the law, but also by the start-
ing up of mills and shops under the
new tariff and a greatly increased de-
mand for coal.

The protective tariff has depressed no
great industry, but has stimulated the
industries of the country and paved the
way for the establishment Of new in-
dustries.

The duty on cot-ton was not changed
by Mr. Dingley, but is the same as that
of the Wilson bill. The conditions
which embarrass the cotton manufact-
urers are internal trade conditions, for
which some i'einedyuilust be found.

What People Bead.

'Encouragcmehtsmay- be found . by
weary readers in, "the. ' statement, of
the new publications. of 1897. ” For
the first time in many years the tide Of
fiction shows an ebb. There were 1,012
new novels in 1896 and only 713 in 1897.
Instead Of‘having three new novels for
every week (lay—the Sunday papers
being sufficient to occupy one day in
the week—the task has been reduced
to little more than two. An industrious
young lady might hope to get away
with a reasonable proportion of these.

For these who do not think it neces- .
sary to read all the new novels, or even
all those that they have heard of, there
is further encouragement in the fact
that the number of new editions in fic-
tion increased froin 102 to 156. These
are for the. most part. of books worth
reading, and the. figures confirm the
impression that the most: receptive
stuff” and will go back to seasoned
literature.

' It is to be noted that there was a
general decline to the publication of
new books last year, from a. total of
5,189 to 4,171. the
greatest decline was in the clam dc- l

 

Next- to fiction,

scribed as “literary historyaand miscel- I
iany”aud in poetry, though this last}
probably indicates only that the passing
fashion. which raged a year or two ago
for printing small volumes of verse
but were supposed to gain value from
a “limited” edition, has already passed.
There was an advance in biography
memoirs, in many branches of science,
and in theology and religion, the de
pirtmcnt that, after law, comes next
in numerical order to fiction. Law
and theology together actually out-
number the novels, which shows that
there are still some serious readers
left. -

Eill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

WHAT TO Do.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer‘s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wishiin relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer. and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp—Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the mOst distressing cases.
