money powers.
Today, hundreds of Democratic news-
papers, and thousands of Democratic
office-holders are lauding Mr. Sherman
to the skies. Not directly, it ls true,
but none the less so In fact.
The sound (?> money policy of Cleve-
land and Carlisle Is receiving their most
enthusiastic endorsement. What is
that but endorsing Sherman? The only
difference between Cleveland and Sher-
man upon the silver question Is, that
the former is the more extreme and
unyielding of the two. This probably
comes from the difference in their men-
tal characteristics. Cleveland ls dull,
dogmatic, obstinate and outspoken.
Sherman Is keen, smooth, cautious and
diplomatic. Cleveland takes a position
and clings to It tenaciously. Sherman
can and does shift his attitude as pub-
lic opinion changes.
But their views are essentially the
same. Both are In accord with the
great "money power" of New York and
London. Both make the interests ot
Wall street paramount to the interests
of the country as a whole. Both be-
lieve that the financial policy of the
government should be so shaped as to
directly benefit the money centers, upon
the theory, perhaps, that If Wall street
can enjoy a superabundance of pros-
perity, the rest of the country may
catch a little of tbe overflow.
It never occurs to either of them that
their financial obligations In that
which, by no possible means, they could
or even can now obtain—gold.
1 favor the free coinage of both sil-
ver and gold, because the silver dollar
to-day is too expensive as token money,
or the mere representative of money
paper would do equally as well—and not
sufficiently valuable—being worth only
i 0 cents—as redemption money.
I favor the free coinage of both met-
als because I am opposed to 50 cent dol-
lars for the poor the only dollars they
! handle to-day—and 100 cent dollars for
foreign bondholders and New York plu-
tocrats—the only dollars they will deign
j to receive.
I favor the free coinage of both sil-
ver and gold, because I favor an honest
dolly there should be no "good, bet-
ter, best'' money—It should all be good.

The excelU-nce of this urtiele hits caus-

reputable brand incalculable damage
would be done to the public health by
the deception. The determination of

a revlewof the subject In its Issue of
October 26.
Many articles have fallen in price
continually since last April. Among
ihese, corn*has fallen in six months,
from 56 to 37 cents a bushel; oats from
33^4 to 24; barley from 52 to 42tfc. There
has been a continuous decline also In
beeves, sheep, hogs, mutton, beef, pork,
lard, beans, apples, currants, turpen-
tine, alcohol, brick and lime.
Twenty-three staples, which rose in
the quarter (the "booin!") from April 1
to July 1, fell off again between July 1
and October 1. These were wheat,
which rose from 60*i cents to 73%, and
fell to 667lt; rye, which rose from 55-\
cents to 50%, and then declined to 45
cents; flour, which rose from $2.40 to
$3.50, and declined to $3.15, and the fol-
lowing articles: Pigs, bacon, hams, su-
gar, molasses, pea.*, potatoes, peanuts,
hemlock leather, oak leather. Jute, steel
beams, quicksilver. Southern coke,
crude petroleum, refined petroleum, Un-
seed oil. tar, carbolic acid and paper.—

An examination of the foregoing will
enable the AtRinsons, the Aldredges
and champions of goldism generally to
wax
farmers and other producers. Prices
are going down, down, down, and -tio
human being can tell where they will
stop, if ever.
It would really be quite interesting
to have Judge Aldredge make a careful
computation showing how much more
debt and taxes a farmer can pay with
corn at 57 cents per bushel than he
could with the price at 56. There is
scarcely room for doubt that he would
be equal to the feat.

Trade is slowly recovering from the
gold contraction, the Baring failure
and their wldesnread consequences,
writes Del Mar from London. The rev-
enue and other receipts for the half
year ended October 5, 1895, were £53,-
951,404, against £52,940,704 for the like
period of 1894, and the balance In the
exchequer was £2,316,368, against £1,-
351,221 In 1894. The foreign trade re-
turns show an increase all along the
line, the mining and manufacturing re-
turns are satisfactory. However, to
bring the cost of production within the
narrow limits afforded to the existing
currency, labor has to be crushed down
to the point of starvation. During the
last five years (all years of depression
and gloom) there have been no less
than 13,427 strikes (so says Mr. James
Kelle/, of Bermonssey), an average, If
we omit Sundays, of about nine strikes
a day, or one for nearly every working
hour. Mr. Kelly's figures seem to have

another, but he is not alone In the mat-

The great success of the chocolate preparations of
the house of Walter Baker & Co. (established
in 1780) has led to the placing on the market
many misleading and unscrupulous imitations
of their name, labels, and wrappers. Walter

Consumers should ask for, and be sure that
they get, the genuine Walter Baker b Co.'s goods.
