How can any one possessing common sense expect better times under the incoming McKinley administration than we have at the preseut. It is inconsistent for a republican and a goldite to claim such. These aregjold standard tiroes, and there is nothing better promised. The leaders of . the republican party have time after time expressed their satisfaction with Grover Cleveland’s administration. During the campaign Cleveland and his. secretary of treasury were often lauded by the yellow metal orators.

Apportionment Very Rank* The republicans of the legislature caucused last night until nearly midnight, and when they adjourned it was announced that they had agreed on a legislative apportionment hill. It is too early to show what the ! exact effects of the bill will be in packing ; the legislature, but members of the present j legislature and ex-members, who have gone | over its provisions, pronounce it one of the I worst gerrymanders in the history of the state. The members of the caucus committee that drafted it say that on the basis of the last election it will give the republicans fifty-nine members of the House and thirty-two members of the senate, including | hold-overs. The bill is bristling with inequalities, the greatest injustice being { I done, in all probability, to the democracy ! of northern Indiana. The enumeration of 1895 is given by the caucus committee as the basis for the apportionment, which makes the unit for senatorial apportionment 12,540 and for representatives, 6,270. One evidence of gerrymander is to be found in the fact that deficiencies below the unit are to be found in the greatest number in the republican counties, while wherever an excess is found it can be pretty safely determined that the county is democratic. Daviess county, which has a democratic majority of >0, is joined in a senatorial district with Dubois, which has 1,790 democratic votes. Pike and Dubois are put together in a representative district leaving, as an excess. 2,878 democratic votes without representation. Lawrence county,with a deficiency of 905, is allowed a republican | representative. Clarke county, democratic, is placed off iu a district by itself with one representative, although there is an excess | of 1,411 votes above the unit unrepresented. : Washington county is largely democratic and has almost enough votes of its own | to entitle it to a representative, but it is given one-third of one representative, being : linked with Clarke aud Floyd. Ohio and Switzerland, on the other hand, are given one republican representative, although the deficiency is 1.802. Madison, Hamilton, BoCne and Montgomery are throwu to-j gether so that every republican vote can be saved, and then there is a deficiency of 662. Another glaring instance is the combination of Huntington, Grant, Wabash, Miamij and Howard, which are given one represen- j tative with a deficiency of 794. The bill is i filled with such evidences of gerrymander , an# an ex-officer of the house, who is high up in politics, estimates that in a close j election it will give the republicans twenty majority in the lower body.—Indianapolis Seuiind of Wednesday.

PUT TO CONFUSION. THE GOLDOCRATS OVERTHROWN BY THEIR OWN TEST. O* Boom That Wm to Follow MeKlo- ! XOmUm Fails kyalsigt Majority j to Materialise—The “Dfawurter" That a! Bryan Victory Stood For la Here. When the returns had final ly settled the result of the presidential election, Mr. Bryan said that if the Republican j pledges of a revival of prosperity were fulfilled the silver men would share in it and therefore would not be justified in regretting their defeat at the polls. The organs of plutocracy felt that they were in danger of being canght in something very like a trap. Accordingly they were filled for a week or two after the election with proclamations of the great boom to Business that had set in as soon as it was announced that the gold standard was to be maintained. The most extravagant accounts of this impetus to trade were unblushingly disseminated, and the unsuspicious observer would have supposed that there were nc idle men in the country and that poverty had ss if by magic been totally abolished. This sort of thing went on for perhaps three weeks, and then the delusion collapsed of its own sheer falsity. The workingmen who hod been misled by it soon found that there was no employment to be had. The mills which bad started up shut down. One failure after another threw thousands out of positions. Ask any business man today what the state of trade is, and he will tell you that collections are slow; that there is nothing doing, and that ruin stares hundreds of people in the face, and that, too, although they are at the head of large establishments. These things are very familiar facts. Nobody disputes them. The country is going along from hand to month. The gold standard sham no longer counts for anythin;. and the only people who can put a decent face on the matter axe the high protectionists. Their experiment is yet to be tried. They can say that McKinley is not1' yet in office and that until he restores the tariff to its one time altitude it is useless to expect anything in the way of prosperity. That is all very well as far as i$ goes, and we have no doubt that when McKinley assumes office the old tariff schedules will be ultimately restored. We are not going into that matter now. All we would draw the reader’s attention to at present is the falsification of the gold standard men on the • dry issue upon which their whole case rested. They pointed out t j us that the very suggestion to restore the silver and gold standard to its condition prior to the crime of 1873 was jtbo cause of all our ills. They said that khe presidential contest was holding business in *he hollow of its hand, and that until we had shown the world that we did not intend to depart from the monetary basis of other nations we wonld never be prosperous, and wonld never have credit. We all remember the stories of millions of dollars ready for investment in this country immediately after a gold standard victory. All Europe was represented to be waiting for McKinley’s triumph to pour gold upon our devoted shores by the ton. Let us now look into the present condition of things. There is absolute stagnation. There is talk of gold export in the near future instead of a stream of gold to ns from Europe. The national banks are collapsing with even more than their wonted rapidity. We see factories dosing. The misery of the poor in our great cities is beyond precedent, and the labor unions report that never in their history have they had to take care of more unemployed members. In fact, it is not evident that we have anything bat the hardest of bard times, and as a final test of the matter let every reader of these lines ask himself if he is in any way better off as a result of McKinley’s election. There is only one conclusion to bo drawn from all these facts, and that is that the pre-election assertions and claims of the gold men were false. They ; provided the grand test of the truth of i their cause, and as we said above it has gone against them. This being so, it, wonld also seem to follow that every-1 thing else they have said is equally without any foundation in fact. They ! said that if Bryan were elected business would be prostrated. McKinley is elected, and business is prostrated. We j were assured that Bryan’s election would bring misery on the poor. MoKinley is elected, and we see the poor worse off then they ever were. If there is one solitary benefit promised by the millionaires as a result of the gold victory that has yet materialized, we cannot conjecture what it is. Nor should it be forgotten that the men of millions told us that the results at the election would be immediate. As for the 50 cent I dollars, we imagine the depositors in the banks that have failed since the election would be very glad to get 50 cents for every 100 they have looked np in the defunct institutions. The entire situation is the most com-i plete putting to confusion of the falsifi-! en that we, recollect ever to have observed.—Twentieth Century

A JINQUNQ FRAUD. Experience* Which Opened Two Men's Kyee and Should Cause Other* to Think. The people are having object lessons on finance that cannot fail to result in a better knowledge of money and its true relation to human affairs. These lessons are being paid for dearly, but the school of experience, while its teachings are expensive, reaches a class of very intelligent people who will learn in no other. Worshipers of the golden calf and their crowd of devotees are so bound up with superstitions of the barbaric past that they cannot readily free themselves from the. absurd notions of “intrinsic value”^and the rules of barter and exchange of the earlier stages of human existence. But as new truths appear and facts threaten to dispel error there are always those who stand in the way, shooting for the ignorance, intolerance and delusion of former days. The finance issue is no exception. Object lessons and experience, however, will in time penetrate the thickest skull and reach the dullest brain. Two circumstances which occurred in this city recently and happened to come within our personal knowledge illustrate the situation forcibly and taught two men the well paid for lesson which the whole world must learn. A laborer who works at a manufacturing establishment took a check for his wages. Presenting it at the bank, he received a $20 goldpieoe and $8 in other money, but before leaving the bank be met his landlord, to whom be owed $13, entering the bank to make a deposit. Handing him the $30 in gold, be received $8 in change, but waited a moment to accompany his neighbor down the street. The $30 goldpiece was placed with the money for deposit, but when offered at the receiver’s window was thrown on the scales and found to be worth only $18.50. ‘ This naturally led to an attempted explanation. The two men asked that the matter be righted in the bank, but the receiver was obdurate and would only accept it at the discount. The paying teller merely said: “You should have kicked when I handed it out if it wasn’t right. Can’t do anything about it now. ’* The laborer insisted that he couldn’t be expected to carry around a pair of scales, but was informed: “That’s not our lookout. We can’t help that. ” So he paid his landlord the difference of $1.50 and went away with an object lesson pretty well stamped on his thinking machine, and as be thought the matter over he registered a vow that he would never again accept gold under any circumstances. But that short weight goldpiece, and 1,000 like it, j keeps right on at the same sort of work i in every city of the United States. Another instance which occurred here a few days ago opened the eyes of one man wide enough so that he will be able to see clear through tho coin basis fallacy henceforth; but he paid $11 for his lesson. Having a gold mortgage to pay and expecting that the holder of the mortgage might claim payment “according to the bond,’’ be called at the bapk and got $500 in the yellow coins, but when he went to pay the mortgage the holder carelessly threw out the papers, 6aying, “All right, Mr. S. f just give me your check.’’ ITrwiew thncti ntrr nm gtAn Mr. S.

hadn’t the nerve to coant out the gold, bnt wrote his check, pocketed the old mortgage, went to the recorder’s office, filed the cancellation, and then went to make a deposit of $500 in the bank. What was his surprise when the money waa offered at the window of the receiving teller 1 It was tried In the balance and found wanting. The package of 25 gold coins which had never been opened and was yet rolled np in the paper labeled by the bank as $500 on being weighed np was worth $489. It was useless to insist that they were the identical coins accepted earlier in the day as $500. There was no appeal. Rather than run the risk of a further loss 11 silver dollars were placed by the side of the pile of gold and the credit on the bankbook was made $500. As this man walked home 14 blocks to save 5 cents car fare he was observed carefully reading over the old posters which yet cover the billboards of this city. They were put up before election and read, “Vote for McKinley, sound money and prosperity. ’’ Then he would apparently listen to the “sound” of that gold coin as it fell in the scales, and ringing in his ears was the * ‘sound’ ’ of the receiving clerk’s voice, “Eleven dollars short, ” but there was lacking in his pocket the sound of 11 silver dollars, taken from him by the “Jfngling fraud” of intrinsic value and gold basis nonsense. —Chicago Sentinel. “Intrinsic Yaloe." * ‘Gold ought to be the standard metal because, apart from its use as money, it has a fixed intrinsic value. ” There is no such thing as intrinsic value. Qualities are intrinsic; value is a relation between exchangeable commodities, and in the eternal nature of thing* c*n never be invariable. Value is of the mind. It is the estimate placed upon a salable article by those ahle mid willing to buy it I have seen water sell on the Sahara at 9 francs a bucketful. Was that its intrinsic value? If so, what is its intrinsic value on Lake Superior?—J. W. Bookwalter. The state of Rhode Island apparently gets the leather medal for defective ballots in the late voting. To think that nearly 10 peroentof the votes cast there tmi to be thrown out on ac%ont of the ignorance or carelessness of the voteu in marking them!—Boston Herald.
