' WEDNESDAY, JULY 12th, 1893.
SiLvtB was quoted at seventy-two
cents Monday,
The rate at which pensioners .are
dropped considerably exceeds the
rate at which new pensions are
being granted. This condition is
evidently very satisfactory to a
large majority of the democrats.
A fire at the world's fairgrounds
Monday destroyed the cold storage
warehouse and in fighting the
llames twelve firemen were burned
to dearh, six others are missing,
and a dozen more or less injured.
The number of paying visitors at
the world's fair last Sunday was
only 40,000, and the attendance on
that day is growing less as each week
passes. It is evident that the pub
lic do not desire the gates opened on
Sunday.
The Ohio populists demand the
impeachment of Cleveland, but
there is nothing strange in that,
for as a party there is no limit to
their wants. They are, however,
as likely to get Cleveland's scalp as
they are a number of the absurd
things they are demanding.
Samuel Blatchford, associate
justice of the United States supreme
court, died on Thursday last. This
will provide Cleveland, says the
Globe-Democrat, with an unex
pected early opportunity to pay
Gresham for services rendered in
accepting the office of secretary of
state.
It was announced at Topeka Sat
urday that a deal in populist politics
had been effected by which Congress
man Jerry Simpson is to be the candi
date for governor next year. Gover

United States senator against Mar

A cyclone struck the town of
Pomerov, in Calhoun countv, Iowa,
Thursday evening killing forty-
eight people and injuring over a
hundred others. The property de
stroyed in the town and country
foots up half a million dollars. Cash
subscriptions for the stricken people
are pouring in from all over Iowa
and other states.
Unlike a irreat manv men in
every town and 'township, The
Tribune has no "dead-sure plan
to relieve the financial condition
which exists. It is a question
which worries the most brilliant
statesmen of the country men who
have made finance a life study
and it is with them this paper is
willing to leave the case tor a
proper solution.
The dread felt that the Irish
home rule bill could not pass the
House of Commons has,happily,been
removed. It is likely to go through
that body by something like the
majority which favored it at the be
ginning of the session. The House
of Lords, of course, will reiect it.
and then a dissolution of parliament
and a new appeal to tne people may
be looked for. If the constituencies
declare in favor of home rule a sec
ond time the Lords will be forced to
submit.
The Manufacturer, of Philadel
phia, says: "Great Britain is wag
ing against us a war as merciless as
any that could be conducted in the
field, and, in its consequences, vastly
more destructive. The difficulties
of the situation in which this nation
finds itself to-day are greater than
any that have presented themselves
.since the glose of the civil war."
True to the letter and spirit. It
has whipped India into a demone
tizing of silver and coaxed the
United States into free trade and
expects to use both for its own ben
efit. That the party in power has
played directly into th hands of
English manufacturers wise Amer
icans cau see at a glance and every
body will learn in the near future.
The refusal of the Era to enum
erate the supposed benefits which
the people have received by" reason
of the existence of the populists
party on the grounds that it would
be a waste of words is an exceed
ingly lame excuse. Ordinarily Mr.
Ellingbaui docs not economize wind
on his belabored editorial opinions,
and if the party which he is sup
posed to espouse had done the peo
ple of the country or state any par
ticular service he would not be slow
to devote column after column to
fulsome praise. Just how the pop
ulists have succeeded iu smashing
the republican party of the state or
nation into smithereens is not clear.
In Nebraska republican state of
ficers preside and will indefinitely,
and the defeat which the party met
last fall was purely a democratic
victory.
On Saturday last Judge Dundy
pronounced the following sentence
on Mosher, the wrecker of the Cap
ital City National Bank of Lincoln:
UI will have to sentence you to im
prisonment in the penitentiary at
Sionx Falls, S. D., for the term of
five years, and to pay thecostof the
prosecution, the term to begin June
17, 1893, .the date of conviction.
There ii no occasion for the mar
shal to take you to Sioux Falls im
mediately. And he can take you to
Lincoln, where he can confine you
in some suitable place, where it will
be convenieat for you to confer

We are paying about $200,000,
000 a year to foreigner for carry
ing American exports and imports
across the-seas. The reason for
this is manifest; all nations that
have built up a great 'mercantile
marine have fostered it by bounties,
bv subsidies, or by such liberal pay
ments for mail services as have had
the effect' of bounties and subsidies,
or bv the simultaneous bestowal of
the three benefits. Great Britain long
made useof the three stimulants to
shin buildintr and ship owning; she
nownses .the last named of them most
lavishly. Consequently she is mis
tress of the seas, and consequently
she does the greater part of the
carrying trade of the world. For
a time the United States dealt lib
erally with its ship owners, and
during that time the number of
vessels carrying American goods
under an American flag increased.
Then came a time or ill-advised
parsimony, and with it American
interest declined, so that now the
United States has the least number
of ocean-going vessels of any great
nation. With something like $100,-
000,000 payable by the United
States to Europe, as a result of an
adverse balance of trade, and some
thing like $200,000,000 paid to
European, mainly British, ship
owners for carriage of American
goods, and all payable in gold, is it
any wonder that there is a scarcity
of gold in the republic? Inter
Ocean.
The Ord Quiz talks to the point
on the supreme judgeship. It says:
"Uur friends., the enemy, are pro
fuse in their predictions that Judge
Maxwell will not be renominated by
the republicans, and some of the
democratic and independent papers
have already nominated him on
their respective tickets. The good
people pretend to base their belief
on the fact that Judge Maxwell
rendered a dissenting opinion in the
impeachment cases. All this is the
height of folly. The repnblican
state convention may or may not
renominate Judge Maxwell. They
will nominate the republican whom
they believe to be the best man for
the place, and whether Maxwell is
the man will not be based on this
decision. But fliere is something
characteristic in this habit of the
pops particularly of snapping after
any republican whom they think
have wandered from the fold. They
show good seuse in coming to the
republicans for their good ticket
timber."
President Cleveland and Secre
tary Carlisle have scored another
hit. -They have succeeded in bring
ing the price of United States bonds
below par. President Harrison aud
Secretary Windom extended the
four and a halfs at 2 per cent, and
paid off all the holders who did not
want to accept the lowsr rate bonds
Yesterday there was an open sale of
these bonds at 4 per cent, below par.
They sold at 96, and we shall be
glad to be corrected if we err in
saying that this is the first public
sale of a United states bond below
par since the republican party es
tablished specie payments. This
is the record upon which Mr. Car
lisle must base his first report to
congress as secretary of the treasury.
It is a record which affords signal
evidence of the utter incapacity of
the democratic party to administer
the affairs of the nation. N. Y.

England has given public notice
that she is going to stand out as "a
monometallism" a geld bug and
nothing else. There is but one na
tion upon the giobe capable of
knocking the socks from under her,
and his name is Uncle Sam. He is
"a oimeiaiusi ana a paper dollar
man, and he will say so, and stand
up to it until the cows come home.
England may boss India, but Uncle
Sam and his boy Jonathan are both
pretty lively in a scrap. John Bull
may scare the goldbugs of Wall
street, but the great teeming west
will neet him with "an army with
banners7,", and a thousand bands
playing ..Yankee Doodle, and will
lay the gold-bugs out cold. Inter

Notwithstanding the rnvageSj of
cholera in some sections of the old
world no serious apprehensions seem
to be entertained of the appearance
of the plague in this country.
French reports claim that there is
no epidemic in the south of France.
though isolated cases have been re
ported. One case is also reported to
have been brought into Enerland.
But the state and national authori
ties of this country have been ex
ceedingly vigilant and the precau
tion tbey have established to pre
vent the introduction o5 the insid
ious disease have served to establish
confidence. Nevertheless with the
summer solstice in full swing it will
be wise for sanitary officers every

danger. Bee.

An ordinance was drafted Jby fjie

Saturday night wherein atax of
three dollars should be placed npon
the head of every dog of the mas
culine gender, and ten dollars on
those of the feminine. Had this
move proved successful and became
a law, the town would have been
wonderfully benefitted, but as the

The citizens of Wallace becom
ing tired of sinking their purses
from five to twenty-five dollars
apiece in cash and considerable hard
labor thrown in, and considering
the depressed condition of the
money market, concluded it best to
abandon the idea of giving a grand
demonstration on the Fourth, which
did not meet the approval of the
people of the country who called a
meetiug aud held a picnic at
Braugh,s lake, after which they
organized and elected officers and
made arrangements for another
siege on the next Fourth of July.
We think by the time they have'
digested the experience and cash of
the Wallace people iu celebrations
they will be ready to take a lay-off.
Mrs. W. E., Smith and sister Miss
Allio Beach, formerly of this, place
but now residents of Kaysvill, Utah,
visited Mrs. L. C. Lenou last Friday.
W. F. Smith is proprietor of the
Kaysville Eagle, published at that
place and was formerly editor of
the Wallace Herald, Brandon Eagle,
and Dickens Express of Nebraska,
and Lephi Courier of Lephi, Utah.
Miss Allie, formerly a prominent
school teacher in this county, has
been following that profession at
Jueb, Utah, for the past eight
months. They will visit parents
and friends in Nebraska for the
next few weeks,
Hugh L. Mickey, a former bar
tender of the main street dramshop
of this place, js now stopping- with
a widow lady in Eevan, Utah, by
the name of Hansen. Mr. Mickey
sails under the name of Walter
Roberts: He is a prominent mem
ber of the Mormon church, implores
the blessing of deity before refresh
ment and mixes mortar for his
grub.
Johnny Sullivan, our prominent
shoemaker, visited Holyoke during
the Fourth. Johnuy left Wallace
with very little money, as a good
rustler generally needs but little.
While at Holyoke he purchased a
fine farm three and one-half miles
south of the city, came home armed
with a Si 50 gold watch, a shot
sack full of mouey and a grip cou
taining a jug of medicine for Frauk
Connely which some apostate stole
from him after his arrival at Wal
lace. This is all evidently true as
Johnny is well known for down
right truth and veracity, i
JamesRunner is possessor of a
new binder. Jim is- a good farmer
and has a crop of small grain that
justifies the purchase. The small
grain in-this vicinity will.be much
better than was expected a short
time ago and the grain merchants
are expecting to ship about one
third of the crop.
When the night's dark shadows
gather over all the starry spheres,
and a melancholy darkness gently j
weeps in rainy tears, tis a joy to
hear the farmer, as he notes the
magic spell, "burst ajar the gates
or neaven open up and give

others speakers in the afUroo.

course, has its acrcd tinseled treas

haps, but some sense all the same.

takes first rank the world
Hundreds of thousands of
growers call it the best harvester
and binder that ever went into a
grain field, and they prize it accord
ingly. It isn't sentiment with thn
it's just plain, old-fashioned com
mon sense. They like it best bi
cause it serves them best.
It costs more- money than some
harvesters, but that's because it's
more valuable. Its advantages more
than offset the added cost.
The " Machine of Steel" is built
to harvest the grain crop of the
world, and to do it better than any
other machine.
