FRIDAY, JANUARY 10. 1805.

A REPUBLICAN Congress will again demonstrate that the Republican party is able to meet anv emergency.

THE Territory of Utah will be admitted into tho sisterhood of States today. The new State officers will be sworn in Monday.

THE sales of foreign wool in .this country for the past week amounted to 3,114,000 pounds, while there were only 2,809,500 of the domestic product sold. That tells the story concisely every wool raiser can understand it.

THE Argus News will be compelled to take the woods if Claud Matthews is nominated for President on a «free silver platform. To witness an out and out gold bug supporting an out and out silver bug for the Presidency would be a sight for the gods. '(J\

THE Venezuelan Commission, appointed by the President, is composed of first class men, and the newspapers of all parties speak of them iii terms of the highest praise. War talk can now take a seat until the Commission reports.

THE President is contemplating another duck hunt, this time to the Ragged Islands. The people have been there for the last three years, or ever since he has been President, and report the ducks and all other game on the ragged edge.

THE Democratic New York Sun says: "Whoever opposes the increase of the Federal revenue at this time is blind or inimical to the welfare of the United States." It would be a good thing for the country if there were a few more Democratic papers like the SUIl.

CHABLES M. EVANS, at Ellsworth, Kansas, writes to a friend in this city that corn is so plentiful in that State that it only sells fop 12 cents a bushel. Farmers are holding for higher prices, consequently money is as scarce there as it is in the United States treasury under the administration of Grover Cleveland.

THOSE Kansas newspapers which have started a boom for Justice Brewer for the Presidency should bear in mind tbat he was born in Asia Minor and therefore is not on the eligible list. He is the son of a missionary and while his parents were in that country laboring with the "unspeakable Turk" the now distinguished jurist happened to be born.

-CHICAGO Inter-Ocean: The people in "the United States were never more prosperous than when busy at work under "the fibber tariff." They smashed it and then—well, they know all about it tince they transferred their workshops to Europe. They sent last year more than $200,000,000 in gold to pay for the thiDgs they should have made at home.

J. PIERPOXT MORGAN, the Administration's Wall street broker, announces that he -has $100,000,000 four per cent thirty-year bonds for sale to a select number of his friends who are willing to come into the deal on the ground floor. Grover is said to be worth from three to five millions. In the language of the late Samuel Dazey, "How did he 'accumerlate' so much?"

THE Gorman-Wilson tariff act, said to have been enacted in the interest of the people, takes from forign wool duties to the amountof a fraction over $8,000,000, but imposes a tax of $40,000, 000, using the word tax in a Democratic sense, on the sugar which every man, woman, and child consumes more or less every day, and this is called a reduction of customs, taxation in the interest of all the people.

THE law of self preservation is the first'law of nature. The experience and judgment of mankind are that the first duty of man is to protect his own business and his own household. The duty of a municipal corporation is to protect its own traders, and the duty of a nation is to protect the industries of its own people. When wholesome duties will yield revenues to the treasury and protect the interests of our own people it cannot be be said that they are wrong in principle. This was the doctrine taught by Washington, Hamilton, Madison, Jeferson, and all the fathers of the Republic.

A VICIOUS POLICY,

The policy of the present AdminiS' tration so far from providing a means of raising revenue, has proven beyond all controversy to be a policy of deficits. For the two fiscal years ending July 1, 1895, the revenues of the Government have been less than the expenditures to the^, extent of §133,000,000. And yet the President and the Secretary of the Treasury tell us tbat none of the fearful embarassmen ts in which the Administration finds itself in carrying on the ordinary operations of the government are attributable to a lack of revenue. This is a most remarkable claim. Based upon such a claim the demand is made upon Congress to retire 8340,000,000 of legal tender notes and

(made,

$140,000,000

of Sher­

man treasury notes, all redeemable in either gold or silver coin, by an issue of §480,000,000 of interest bearing bonds, not redeemable in coin, but in gold coin. No such character of bonds was ever issued by this government in all of its long history, not even when involved in the terrible convulsions of civil war. This claim that there is no lack of revenue and this demand for authority to issue bonds come after the Secretary has within the past twenty months issued and sold a fraction over $102,000,000 of 5 per cent ten-year, and 4 per cent thirty-year bonds, and out of the issue of 362,000,000 of which the New York and London syndicate realized some $11,000,000 or $15,000,000 profits. What 'has become of this money? It ig claimed that no part of this vast sum was necessary or was used to meet current expenses. This is certainly a disingenuous statement. With the $162,000,000 realized from the sale of these bonds the redemption of $162,000,000 of legal«tender notes was

but owing to a lack of sufficient

revenue arising from custom duties and excise taxes to meet the current expenses the Secretary was compelled to reissue and pay out about ®133,000,000 of the legal tender notes so redeemed. As the revenue was insufficient to meet such expenses, 'the immediate reissue of this vast amount of legal tender notes afforded further opportunity to the New York and London syndicate to draw gold from the treasury. The vicious tariff policy of the present Administration has placed this country and our government virtually in the hands of a receiver, composed of a foreign syndicate. That syndicate is demanding more bonds.

MR. SHERMAN'S FINANCIAL PLAN. Mr. Sherman, in his late able speech in tbe Senate, on the financial question, submits a plan for a permanent system of currency for the United States which is worthy of the serious and favorable consideration of the people of the entire country. It is as follows:

A careful study of the system of banking, currency, and coinage adopted by the principal nations of Europe convinces me that our system, when cured of a few defects, developed by time, founded upon the bimetallic coinage of gold and silver, maintained at par with each other, with fre'e national banks established in every city and town of importance in the United States, issuing their notes, secured beyond doubt by United States bonds or some equivalent security redeemable on demand'in United States notes, and the issue of an amount of United States notes and treasury notes equal to the amount now outstanding with provision for a ratable increase with the increase of population, always redeemable in coin, supported by an ample reserve of coin in the treasury, not to be invaded by deficiencies of revenue, and separated by the subtreasury system from all connection with the receipts and expenditures of the government—such a system would make our money current in commercial circles in every land and clime, better than the best that now in Europe, better than that of Britain, which now holds the strings of the world.

exists Great purse-

It may be possible to devise a betterplan than this, but is there a prospect of getting any better system adopted? It must be kept in mind that just now all parties are more or less split up into warring factions on the money question, with no one strong enough to secure the adoption of its notions. No one can reasonably hope for an adoption of the single gold standard in this country.. Neither is the public mind, in any great degree, favorable to the free coinage of silver on the old ratio of 1 to 10. The Populist theory of an unredeemable paper currency will not likely ever command the support of at majority of the voters of the country. It is the interest of all classes that the question of a permanent system of currency} should be settled, and what better plan can we hope to have adopted than that proposed by Mr. Sherman? The people, in their business transactions do not care for coin, either gold or silver. If there is no doubt about the redemption of the greenback currency, all would prefer it to any kind of metallic money.

People everywhere would pay gold into the treasury for such paper. With abundant inflow of gold from a wisely regulated tariff, and a provision that greenbacks should be paid out only for coin, we should always have an abundance of gold on hand to redeem the greenbacks and to make them absolutely safe in the hands of the people. The gold standard men and the 1 to 16 silver men will all denounce {Mr. Sherman's financial scheme, but

what hope is there of getting any better adopted? Would it not be the part of wisdom for all factions to yield up apart of their dogmatic notions and agree to some middle ground in order to put an end to the damaging uncertainty and have a settled system of finance, or more properly, a settled system for the creation of United States money?

THE NEV YORK WOULD AND BONDS. Elsewhere to-day we print the telegraphic correspondence between the New York World and the Citizens' National Bank of this city. As will be teen by the IForfd's telegram a similar injuiry has been made of every national bank in the country. It *is a movement on the part of the proprietor of that paper, Joseph Pullitzer, in favor of a popular loan among the people of the United States instead of placing it with a foreign syndicate, as the last national loan was mode by the President and his "Secretary. It has been given out that all the arrangements have been made for the placing of $100,000,000 in United States bonds through Banker Morgan. He is to be the middle man between the favorite banks both at home and abroad. He would himself make a cool million to begin on while there would be a large wad to divide among the banks. This scheme was exposed and things got so hot that the Democratic World could not stand the pressure, and came out in a protest, and denounced it in the severest terms. The World calls upon the President to turn from the syndicate to the people. The proprietor offers to take an even million of the popular loan bonds himself. This is good advice and a worthy example. The World prefaces its advice to the President by a strong but not exaggerated statement of the situation. It declares that "the syndicate manipulations not only must result in enormous loss to the government, but will lead to great national scandal, the moral effect of which upon the country will be more disastrous than any financial loss could possibly be." Mr. Carlisle has given it out that nobody would subscribe to a popular loan. The responses that the World will receive to-day will doubtless enable it to say to-the President and his Secretary that they are mistaken. It is entirely immaterial what Mr. Pulitzer's motive is. Very likely it is true that his position on the Venezuelan ques-' tion hurt his paper and he is trying to recover lost ground, but that is neither here nor there. The one thing to challenge attention is the halt the World calls on the President. Coming as it does from the leading Democratic paper of the country it cannot otherwise than make a profound impression concerning a "great national scandal." Scandal is a strong word, but this is the word the World employs to convey its meaning and the truth.

Since the above was written the announcement comes that Mr. Carlisle has listened to the World and calls for a popular loan.

IT is said that over 90 per ceut of the wealth of this nation is in the hands of farmers. Agriculture is the foundation of our nation's wealth and prosperity. All 01 her pursuits are dependent on the farmers. If the farmer thrives, they prosper if the business of the farmer languishes, they suffer. That is emphatically shown when there is a general failure of crops. Merchants, mechanics, factories, jobbers, railroad companies, and banks all feel the shock. Business is deranged, laborers can get no employment, a^d general depression prevails. On the contrary, when crops are abundant and prices of agricultural products good, the farmer thrives, and all classes of business partake of his prosperity. Yet no class of people has been neglected by the nation's legislation as have been the farmers. Corporations, combinations of capital and trusts were fostered and protected in the Fifty-third Congress, when the new tariff schedules were adopted by the bill Of "party perfidy and party dishonor," but not a voice was raised on the Democratic side in favor of tbe farmer when his interests were stricken down.

WE have been told time and again that free wool gives the poor man cheap woolen clothing, but the very same law that provides for free wool and takes from the farmer and woolgrower all protection, imposed a duty of 42.82 per cent, on woolen manufacturers, thus giving protection to tho manufacturer of nearly 50 per cent., and on the Democratic theory that the tariff is a tax to be paid by the consumer, and imposes a tax to this amount on the backs of the people who wear woolen goods. It is an outrageous wrong to the American wool growers the price of clothing is no cheaper, and the only persons benefitted are the foreign wool-growers and che foreign manufacturers. Instead of raising and manufacturing our own wool it has transferred the industry to foreign countries.

THE Senate is composed of 88 mem bers. Including the Delaware Senator, Pierpont, when he is seated the Republicans will have 42, the Demc crats 40, and the Populists 6. It will

be seen, theretore, that the Republicans have three less than a majority. A plurality vote can control organization but it cannot control legislation. Reorganization has been effected by ths Republicans, but it is an organization that has no sure control over legislation. With this lack of full control it is utter foolishness for any one to claim that the Republican members can be held to a full accountability for what transpires in the upper body."

WHAT outrageous, barefaced liars some men can be. For instance, the editor of the Natchez (Miss.) Dcmocraf, who says:

As matters stand now the pension system is but a legalized conspiracy to plunder the National Treasury and to distribute gratuities.asa rule, in places where calculated to redound most largely to the interest and advancement of the Republican party. For every solitary veteran who is rightfully enjoviug a monthly or quarterly stipend from Uncle Sam's cash box there are hundreds of names- on the rolls dishonestly, the bearers of which are no more entitled to Federal bounty than the South Sea Islanders.

When it comes to writing about pensions it seems impossible for a Democratic editor to utter the truth.

SOUND TALK.

A Kepnblican of Franklin Given tlie liepulilicauB of the Comity Some Good Advice.

To tho Editor of the Journal. DARLINGTON, Jan. 6.—We have been

accustomed for years to read carefully the editorial column in the DAILY CRAWFORDSNILLE JOURNAL and trust that all good Republicans have done the same. We have time and again called attention to certain facts as we found them in this column as the very Republican doctrine needed. In the issue of last Thursday and also in the WEEKLY of same week we note your advice to the Republicans of this coun ty on the opening of the present campaign. You close by saying, "Therefore look well to the selecting of your committeemen." This to us, is the ground work of success. We have plenty of good men ann good Republicans all over the county ready and willing to do their full duty, and yet they do not lyiow or realize the value of a good committeeman. First, he must be a true Republican from principle, not for gain or notoriety. He must have the interest of his party, not' individuals, at heart, but the whole party. He must be fearless and courageous, quick to see and act, and with all these industrious. No lazy man can make a good committeeman. He should know the politics of every man in his precinct, his disposition, his character, and his habits in fact he should be an encyclopedia for his entire precinct as on him much depends when the vote is counted. He need not necessarily be an old man, as our success in the two last elections in this township was largely due to young men. Even first voU ..s worked with a will and did excellent service. After thirty years of active duty we feel we can safely trust our interests in the hands of the young men of Franklin township. Since our acquaintance politically.with this.township we have no hesitancy in.saying each and every committeeman has done his whole duty and as a result, we today can boast of a solid Republican township. In 1892 we polled 35 Democratic and carried the township 35 Republican with the tide against us. In 1894 with just about an even poll we carried a majority for Trustee of 70 and all others close after. What did it? Hard and unceasing work. The committeman that dose his duty has no snap, he receives no pay, and is sure to spend both time and money as all must be sacrificed for party. He receives the jeers and sneers of too many, he meets with discouragments where he expects the opposite. But when the vote is counted aud our party has been victorious, then he hears the ever ready, "didn't we do it?" But if i,he contrary they slip home and curse the committeemen. Now we say, select gooJ men, young men if nessesary.

We who are oldei push on the lines, and we will go into the campaign to win. Right here in the beginning we warn the party of over confidence. This will be a hard contest, every inch of ground will be contested and the candidate that thinks this fight ends with his nomination will awake when too late, to tbe realization of the fact that all men are mortal and the other fellow has the office. Let there be a good turn out next Saturday. Let us select good and willing workers, but above all others see that they did not vote the Democratic ticket.
