The importations of manufacturers of iron and steel have increased nearly 50 per cent, since the Gorman-Wilson tariff went into effect, and the laborers in that line in this country have suffered accordingly. As there were 238,000 men employed in the iron industries and $115,000,000 capital invested in 1892, the disastrous effect of this large increase in importations can readily be seen. The anti-toxine remedy for diphtheria has been endorsed by the New York Board of Health. A decrease in the number of deaths from diphtheria is reported and more favorable reports are expected, as the use of the remedy becomes more common. —During the {past year there were 2,207 cases and 467 deaths, while in the preceding year there were 2.058 cases and 675 deaths. This shows a decline in the mortality from 39 to 24 per cent.

The Toledo Blade thus puts it in a nutshell. The farmers of the United States should put on |their thinking caps tnd study the following statistics: During the seven months ending with January our exports of breadstuff's were valued at $66,809,534, a decrease of $45,000,000. The value es our exports of wheat declined from $43,867,868 to $26,997,136; of our corn, from $18,033,867 to J5,216,591, and of our wheat flour, $43,959,200 to $31,878,933. This is the way the Democracy is carrying out its promise to obtain the “markets of the world” for. our farmers.

Even President Cleveland’s English friends have become disgusted with Ids recent actions. The London Economist of February 23, condemns Mr. Cleveland’s deal with the New York syndicate in round terms. It says: “When Mr. Goschen carried out his conversion scheme the entire cost in commission to agents, other than th© Banks of England and Ireland incurred in converting £558,000,000 of 3 per cents, was £234,000. And now we see, the Uuited States compelled to allow intermediaries to earn a profit of over £1,000,000 on a loan of 113,000,000. Of course the laborer is worthy of his hire and no one would dream of blaming the syndicate for making the best possible terms for themselves. But if the monetary affair of the States had been managed with ordinary prudence their service would not have been needed.”

The American Economist under the caption “A Woolly Story’’ says: “The State department recently circulated a report from Consul Meeker, Bradford, England, to the effect that American woolen goods were being sold in the Bradford market Our worthy Consul seems to have gone off at half cock. After firing off his first report he proceeded to investigate the subject, learning that samples of American cloth had been furnished only to one Bradford house to try and have theix. fabric placed in the Indian and South African markets. Consul Meeker’s anxiety to find a foreign market for american goods, now that oar wall of protection has been smashed down, evidently got the better of his discretion. The State department ought not to have circulated such a story without proper investigation at this end at least Inquiries should have been made from our mans, tyrturai and experts*

You Bet We Will.

The people will sweep the Democratic party completely out in 1896. We will have a Republican President, Senate and House of Representatives. Out will be at a parity with the world’s measure of value, whatever it is. Just as soon as we get the chance we will revise the tariff, and on the old lines too. We shall admit free of duty everything we need and cannot produce here, other than luxuries. On everything made in Europe that competes with American labor duty will be placed equal to the difference between wages here and there. The tariff will be framed on the lines of the McKinley Jflll, the best tariff bill ever enacted. McKinley did not make that bill; the United States made it. Reed, of Maine, had more to do withit than McKinley; for as speaker of the House he secured its passage. Give the Republican rule for a

single decade unlimited, uncrippled power, and we will lift the bankrupt treasury to the light of profusion and repletion, and will raise sufficient revenue without an odious income tax. We will restore confidence and inspire courage, and will start spindles and water wheels. Every man who wants work will have it, and at the wages of the crowning year of Republican rule, 1892. We will place our flag on all the seas of the globe, restore the merchant marine to its place, and increase our white, strong armed squadrons so that they will command the respect of qll nations. We will annex the Hawaiian Islands, fortify Pearl harbor, build the Nicaragua Ganal, and marry two great oceans. We will show people a foreign policy that is American in every fiber, and hoist the American flag on whatever islanc we think best, and no hand shat ever pull it down.—Sen. Wm. P. Frye.

Coin's Financial Quackery.

Indianapolis- Journal. The attention of the Journal has been called to a book entitled “Coin’s Financial School,” which is being industriously boomed from Chicago and extensivelyi.circulated in the northern part of ‘this" state. It deals, or pretends to deal, with the currency question. The book itself is printed in flashy style, profusely illustrated with pictures, many of which are vulgar and all of which are vile, and is appropriately bound in yellow paper. It belongs to the class of yellow covered literature of various kinds which are treated as nuisances in all well regulated newspaper offices and either deposited in the waste basket or sent to the paper mill. The book is a vicious attack on honest money and a direct appeal to the prejudice, the ignorance and the avarice of superficial readers and disjointed thinkers. One of its pictures, which is evidently deemed so clever that it appears in the text and on one of the outside covers, is of tke “average business man.” It represents him with wheels in his head, which are worked by a string from the rear held by a hand labeled “bank.” From this it may be rightly inferred that “Coin’s Financial School” does not appeal to intelligent business or even to the average business man. It appeals to those who regard banks as inventions of the devil, bankers as public enemies and successful business men as their willing dupes and allies who believe in honest money and a sound currency because the bankers tell them to. There is much to be said in favor of bimetallism and the free coinage of silver on an international basis, and there is reason to believe that the problem is rapidly approaching la solution on that line, but the interests of silver cannot be promoted by such wretched travesties on truth and reason as “Oom’s Financial School.”
