FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1895.

IF you have steers to sell, sell them .low.

THE wise Presidential aspirant is keeping silent nowadays.

TO-DAY is the last day for making returns on the income tax.

STRAWBERRIES can be had now at 25 to 40 cents a quart in New York.

THE Illinois Democracy, or all that is left of it, will declare for free silver.

IT is only a question of time until the Government will be compelled to issue more bonds.

ONE of the most urgent duties of the Fifty-fourth Congress is to repeal the emasculated income tax law.

IT is a neck and neck race between the Grant monument fund, the Indiana battle ship fund and the snail with the odds in favor of the snail.

CHICAGO Intcr-Ocenn: The rise of 30 per cent, in the price of beef is not an honest rise. Three-fourths of the profit goes to the butchers. Buy less meat for a few weeks and see them come down.

DURING the last year Missouri has increased 100,000 in population from the Northern States. Most of this increase is Republican. Missouri can safely be counted in the Republican column in 1800.

WHAT is left of the income-tax law now since the Supreme Court has driven through with an 18-ton road roller will add more to the income of the lawyers in further litigation than to the revenues of the government.

DEMOCRATS who aie anxious for the sincere milk of the word in its purity coupled with sound reasoning and spiced with good horse sense, should read the dissenting opinion of that veteran Democrat, Judge Field, on the income tax law.

WHEN the Republican policy of reciprocity was in force we sold Cuba an average of over 25,000 sacks of Hour per month and since that policy was abolished by a Democratic Congress we have sold her only about 3,300 sacks per month.

THE Supreme Court iias refused a rehearing in the fee and salary case. Attorney General Ketchum sought to cure the defects of the law of 1891 through a court decision, but the court declines to go behind the record which ends all litigation so far as this law is concerned.

THE Lebanon Patriot appeared this week in anew suit of spring clothes of the latest cut and style. The Patriot is one of the leading Republican papers of Western Indiana and its new rig is but an evidence that its work in the cause of good government is appreciated by its constituency.

GOVERNOR MCKINLEY states the case in a nutshell when it says: "The way to stop loans is to stop deficiencies. The outflow of gold will never trouble us when the iniiow is large enough We cannot replenish the treasury of a government by impoverishing the people who sustain the government."

VICE-PRESIDENT STEVENSON, it seems, is involved in a Uloomington building association scandal. When a building association can pay an attorney $200 a month, and its other officers proportionately, it must just simply rob the stockholders. No legitimate building association can pay such salaries and live.

THE salary of the President of the United States cannot be taxed under the income-tax law, as the constitution explicitly declares that the compensation of the President shall not be diminished during his term of office. The same is true of the Supreme Judges. One by one the big fish jump over the net and get away.

IT seems clear that the advance in prices of cattle and meat so noticeable lately is due to shortage in supply. The low prices that prevailed the past three years made it unprofitable for farmers and ranchmen to carry large numbers. The drouth last year and high prices of feed necessitated unusually close marketing. Hard times also caused free selling. The result is being realized. The prospective supply in the «west is 25 to 40 per cent, short of last year, and will remain so for at least'two years, as it requires from two to three years to fully develop a prime steer.

CRUSHED GRANITE FOR STREETS. A gentleman who has had large experience in stone work and has been a close observer of the different methods of road building and their relative cost, suggests that our streets could be permanently improved by utilizing the granite boulders which abound along the bed of Walnut Fork. With the use of a crusher they could be made into the proper size and spread on our clay soil. Follow this step with a steam roller, and we would then have streets as hard as adamant and as enduring as time. This would be much cheaper than either asphaltum or brick and much more durable. These suggestions are certainly worthy of serious consideration when the time comes,—as it will come when we are supplied with a good system of sewerage,—to permanently improve our streets. Anent these suggestions come the remarks of Gen. Stone, made at the Road Convention at Indianapolis on the 8th of January last. When this question was put to him on this point he said ^in substance that in many places roads and streets are now being made of crushed granite boulders, and experience has proved that there is no other road material superior to it. Machinery is now made for crushing the boulders, and it is found to work with admirable success. The material is ground out about the size of hulled walnuts, and when firmly packed together, lasts for a great number of years without repair, and besides, a road made of this material is always hard and smooth. Gen. Stone had made it his business since he was appointed Road Commissioner for the Government, to examine the various methods of road building in all parts of the Union, and he gives the crushed granite roads the preference over all others. •.

THOSE who are criticising the action of the City Council in the purchase of a steam road roller should withhold their judgment «until they witness the test of its practical workings. If the roller will accomplish what is claimed for it it will be money well invested. If it will not do the work successfully and in a satisfactory manner the city is not compelled to complete the purchase, and therefore nothing will be lost. The roller is certainly worthy of a fair trial. There is one thing in which all the people will agree, and that is that the present policy which has been pursued for the last twentyfive years of hauling gravel on to the streets one year and removing the most of it the following spring in the form of mud has been a very expensive one, and not altogether satisfactory. The question how to get out of the mud has been under discussion for years, and now that the Council has had the nerve to change the policy its action should not be too severely criticised. At any rate it would be the part of wisdom to wait until the experiment proves a failure.

THE sales of foreign wool in the Eastern markets are much larger than those of the domestic. The sales of domestic to date are less than those made, even last year, at this time. Foreign receipts show an enormous increase, domestic receipts a decline. These highly significant facts are an epitome of the market. Since the opening of the Idaho clip at 734 cents last week, Utah has opened at cents for heavy wool. The West is swarming with Eastern buyers, and stocks are exhausted. The shortage of the American clip is so marked that only heavy arrivals of foreign wools will prevent an advance. Advices from Texas note the sale of whole flocks of sheep for slaughter. The Texas flock since 1892 has dropped from 5,000,000 to 3.700.000. :y

THE Bankers' Mayazinc for April says: "As a fair conclusion from the whole mass of silver literature, both pio and con, it may certainly be said that a very large number of influential business men in this country have come to the opinion that with an international agreement by the leading Nations of the world, it would be possible and desirable to have silver replaced in its former position of interchangeability with gold on the basis of 1G to 1, or any other approximate basis that might be agreed upon. On the other hand, the free coinage plan by the United States alone has made no progress among thinking business men."

REV. JESSE HILL, one of the pioneer Methodist preachers of the Northwest Indiana Conference, died at his home in Frankfort yesterday. During the course of his long ministry he has served the Methodist people of Ladoga, Darlington and Russellville as their pastor. During the war he raised a company for the 72d Regiment, and was made a Captain, which position he resigned to accept the Chaplaincy.

THE apparent causes of the recent rapid advance in prices of crude petroleum are given as the gradual drying up of old wells, the failure of new wells to produce what was expected, and the gradual using up of available stocks of crude, bringing the trade face to face with the prospects of an actual scarcity in the supply of this great natural product. Hence the rapid advance in prices.

"LEGAL, TENDER."

W. E. Curtis, the accomplished Washington correspondent of the Chicago Rccord, has been asked to give a definition of the term "legal tender" and the different classes of American money that come within that designation. In reply he says that the official meaning of the term "legal tender" is money that may be offered in payment of any dues or debt, public or private, in the absence of any agreement or obligation to pay in something else. In government transactions the gold coin of the United States is a legal tender at its nominal value when not below the standard weight. When reduced in weight it is legal tender in proportion to its actual value. Standard silver dollars are legal tender except where it is otherwise expressly stipulated, and the smaller coins in sums not exceeding £10. Copper, bronze and nickle coins are legal tender to the extent of 25 cents. United States notes, otherwise known as greenbacks, are legal tender except for duties on imports jand interest on the public debt. Treasury notes issued in payment for silver bullion under the Sherman act of 1890 are full legal tenders. Columbia half dollars and quarters are legal tender to the amount of $10. Gold certificates are not legal tender, but can be exchanged at any time for gold coin, which is. The same is true of silver certificates. National bank notes are not legal tender, but are receivable for all dues except customs, interest on the public debt and the redemption of the national currency. No foreign coins or notes are legal tender within the United States.

THERE are gold monometallists and silver monometallists in this country. The gold monometallist believes that the gold dollar consisting of 24.9 grains of pure gold is or should be the monetary unit, while the silver monometallist believes that the silver dollar consisting of 371% grains of pure silver should be the monetary unit. Neither position is correct. The monetary unit in this country is the dollar. And Congress decreed in 1792 that the dollar should consist of either one or the other of the two described substances of fixed weight, and when it spoke of these things as units, it used the term "as the equivalent of dollars." The term unit in the law applied to gold as well as to silver. Bimetallism, or the double standard, could not have existed in any other way.

THE standard silver dollar was never changed, and it is to-day intrinsically precisely as it was in 1792—that is to say, 412rf grains of standard silver and 371X grains of pure silver.—Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.

Those who contend that the weight of the silver dollar has never been changed since the first act in 1792 authorizing its coinage are not exactly accurate. The weight of the pure silver has not been chagedand it remains at 371.25 grains just as it was in the beginning, but the standard weight of the dollar has been reduced from 410 grains to 412% grains. This change was made by the act of 1837 and was the difference of the amount of the alloy that went into the dollar. Otherwise there has been no change in the weight of the silver dollar.

THE effect of the new tariff law is wide and startling. It includes a new public debt amounting to $103,000,000, low wages to the workingmen and small profits to those who have anything to sell. The manufacturers of England are daily increasing their sales in the United States. Goods are coming into American ports by t!ie ship load. This is a bad thing for American labor. The new tariff law is not filling the pocket-books of the American workingmen but is emptying it. The American farmer has lost a market for $50,000,000 worth of his wheat and 32,000,000 bushels of his corn. The Democratic tariff law has helped the foreigners but it hasn't helped any Americans.

FROM 1805 to 183G not a silver dollar was coined in the mints of the United States, and the man who ordered the discontinuance of the coinage was Thomas Jefferson, then President of the United States. And yet there are Democrats to-day who worship at the shrine of Jefferson and mingle with their devotions a petition for the restoration of the dollar that the sage of Monticello demonetized with a stroke of his pen.

THE editor of the Review of Reviews, in the April number, calls attention to the recent development of college oratory, and instances several notable debates held at different institutions East and West. As against certain extreme manifestations of interest in athletics, the editor cites "the genuine enthusiasm for the study of public questions, for college journalism, and particularly for competitivcdebating."

THE Chicago platform, upon which Grover Cleveland stood as a candidate, denounced the McKinley law because it was unconstitutional. The Democrats thought it necessary that our revenues should be raised by constitutional means. They therefore repealed the McKinley law and passed the income tax law. And now behold the result!
