FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4. 1896.

MCKINLEY loses one elector in California, but he gains one in Virginia, which makes the electors still stand 273 to 175.

WHEN a Democratic Congress put wool on the free list it reduced the import duty on shoddy one-half. The consequence has been an importation of 50,000,000 pounds of shoddy to take the place of wool in domestic manufactures.

As soon as McKinley is inaugurated the Hawaiian Islands will make another effort to be annexed to the United States. It is safe to say that they will not knock in vain. The American flag will then be hoisted never again to be hauled down.

AT the recent election the State of Nevada cast 8,507 votes, while Montgomery county cast 8,003, or 90 more than a State which furnishes two United States Senators and a Congressman. Giving to such a State three electoral votes is an absurdity. The territory of Nevada should be attached to California and then divided into two States on equitable lines.

TEE Legislature just elected in North Carolina is composed of seventy Republicans, fifty-five Populists and forty-five Democrats. As there is no fusion between the Democrats and Populists it is not likely that they can elect a United States Senator. On the other hand it is given out that Senator Pritchard has enough pledges from the PopulistB to insure his re-election.

BOURKK COCHRAN is not disposed to be at all equivocal or qualifying about his duty as a sound money Democrat. "I am tired," he says, "of masquerading as a tariff reformer, and will never again be found before the public in that capacity." Nor is that all. "We are bound," he adds, "to recognize that the Republican party has been the party of victory, and we are bound to support the Republican policy."

THE comparative statement of the receipts and expenditures of the (Jnited States shows that during the month of November, 18'JO, the total receipts were $25,210,090, and the expenditures 532,200,720. The receipts for the five months of the fiscal year amount to §131,050,489, and the expenditures to $171,507,335. The deficit lor the month of November, therefore, is 87,050,024, and for the five months §39,940,840, as compared with ?15,S0y.-1 ^30 for the corresponding five months of last year.

THOSE farmers who still have wheat for sale will get the highest price they have received for several years. And those of our great farming population wliv "Ufi ii.-tti.cd to the free silver theory that wheat prices were low because silver is low, should note the complete refutation of that theory which the present situation gives. Short crops in other wheat producing countries have brough the price to the highest level for teveral years, thus showing that the law of supply and demand fixes prices, and that there is no relation between the price of silver and that of other products.

MINT DIRECTOR PRESTOS says the world's production of gold in 1890 will reach at least 3220,000,000. This output is unprecedented. It is over twice as large as that of 1SSG, nearly equal to that of gold and silver combined iu that year, and many millions in excess of the entire production of the yellow metal from the discovery of America in 1492 down to 1850, a period of three and a half centuries. Furthermore, the indications all point to a steady increase in the world's production for years in the future. Thesilverite talk about a "scarcity of gold" is seen to be absurd, in the light«of the above figures.

NEXT Monday the fifty-fourth Congress will reconvene for the short session which will end March 4 next. The fact of the session being a short one will undoubtedly militate to some degree against the enactment of some important legislation. For one thing, the passage of the appropriation bills will occupy much of its t'me and can be made to occupy more. In the next place, there seems to be considerable doubt as to the policy to be pursued in reference to revenue legislation, and and this may result in its postponement until the meeting of the next

TIIE New York World publisbessome interesting figures on the popular vote for President.

The total vote was about 13,579,038, a gain over 1S92 of 1,500,000. MeKinley's gain over Harrison was 1,874,408,

Democrats and Populists polled 37(1.394 fewer votes in 1890 than they did iu 1892.

Four years ago Cleveland's plurality was 380,S10. This year MeKinley's plurality is about S30,000.

The sound money majority, that is the united vote of McKinley and Palmer, i.s 908,531.

This shows the weakness of fusion in a bad cause. It also shows that the American people can be depended rn to settle all great and vital public questions in the right wny. And yet. there are those among the Populists who cannot understand that their deficit was overwhelming.

The election of Mr. McKinley was the occasion of the most rapid and wide-spread business revival ever known in this country. There is a certainty that good times will prevail and that people will earn money ana have money to spend. The Independent, of New York, was •foremost- in upholding the principles for which Mr. McKinley 6tands, and rejoices in the better outlook for every man, woman and child in the country.

For fortj-nine years the Independent has held the first position among the great religious, literary and family weeklies of this country, and it proposes to fill that place in the future. It has adopted several new, interesting and important features, two of which are: "The Survey of the World,"which gives in a concise form all of the important events that have happened in the world during the week, and"Work Indoors and Out." which tells men, women, boys and girls how to earn menf.y in variety of ways. In general the paper is particularly fitted for professional men, business men, merchants, farmers and families. It costs but six cents a week—$3 a year—or at that rate for a'uv part of a year. A specimen copy will be sent to any person free by addressing the Independent, New York City.

According to a Montgomery coui juror one man's character is worth one cent. While we have a few cranks that because they failed to get from three to five dollars for their body and 60ul on November 3 as was their custom, they claim the full sum of $300 for character.

Let the incoming Legislature pass a law allowing towns to hold elections biennially and the ofiieers to hold office for two years instead of one and they will have done a good thing for towns the size of ours, and saved the tax payers considerable useless expense and we believe we will get better service frr the money.

LOCKED IN THE KITCHEN.

Mother I-eavos Her Children and Returns to Find Tlieni Burned to Death. CHICAGO, Dec. 8.—The four children of Paul Bartcovitch, a laborer, were burned to death late yesterday. The dead children arc:

JOSEPH, aged 0 years. LLOSA, .iced 4 yea.is. JOHN, aged 2 years. Louis, aged 1 year. The children were loft alone in the house by Mrs. Bartcovitch. She left the three younger children in charge of Joseph, placing all four in the kitchen and locking the doors. It is supposed the children played with matches or lighted pieces of paper in the stove and set fire to the house. The building was a small 1-story frame affair and in a sparcely settled district, no other house being within a block of it. None of neighbors appear to have seen the building on fire, as the mother, when she returned two hours after leaving, was the first one to find that their house had been burned and her children were dead. All four of the bodies were found badly charred in the ruins.
