Tho total amount of lawful monoy held

1175 in August, while tho aggregate ot

8109,490,100. Besides this, tho national

tho actual payment of cash being re
stricted in amount, less cunency, they
say, is needed for actual use, and the
surplus, therefore, congests rtt monetary
centres like New York, as tho blood con
gests in tho central organs of tho human
body when its circulation is impeded.
This is true, but it is not tho whole
truth. Certainly, as much business
is done now as was done last summer,
so that tho demand for cunency, every
thing else being equal, ought to be as
great now as it was then. The
difference is caused by tho dillerent
condition of men's minds. Then, thou
sands of people were gathering up and
hoarding currency in anticipation of
general bankruptcy. Now that tho
craze is over and general confidence
restored, theso hoards have come out of
their hiding places and have found
their way into tho banks.
In recognizing the fall in the price of
wheat and other commodities, the fact
should not bo overlooked that the cost
of producing a bushel of wheat or corn
has been falling with the intioductioii
of modern mechanical appliances. It
lias boon estimated that forty years ago
it took ten men to cut, take, bind and
shock ten acres of wheat in a day; that
a tow years later, with the introduction
of tho reaper, eight men could do the
work; that a decade Inter the self rak
ing reaper reduced tho number to six,
and that ten veins ago the introduction
to farm use of tho table reaper, upon
which two men rode, reduced the num
ber to four; next came the wire and
twine binder, which i educed tho iiuiii
bor to two. Hero is an economic ovula
tion 'that amounto to a resolution, so
that tho displacement of labor leases
tho tax and interest on tho value of the
farm laud proportionately tho chief ex
pense of farming operations.

Tho brightest men that live, not even
evcepting Mr, Jones, the impetuous
managing editor of the Journal or his
Immature dramatic critic, are capable of
sustaining some mental improvement,
and Tar, Couiiiku was not at all uncom
plimentary when It said that tho latter
gent Ionian might Improve wit It Mge.
Hut people are very sensitive, ami it
seems that Mr. ilones, feeling that an
outrage had been committed against the
dignity ot the Journal, was unable to
restrain his youthful impetuosity sufll
clently to enable him to proceed with
that care uud deliberation which should
characterize a journalist in his icspousl
blo ami exalted position, and was led by
his ardor into making a speetacleof him
self. Now.TiiKCouuif.it has the most su
premo admiration for tlio ineompaiablo
talents of Mr. Jones, and we respect him
because when ho spout the memorable
throe tin) s in New York stud) lug met
ropolitan journalism, he learned moio
than C, A. Dana anil the other
plugs there who have been at It all their
livefl, and we me very sorry to find our
selves under the necessity of calling the
cherub faced young man clown, and tell
ing him that one of the llrst rules in
well-regulated newspaper olllces is to
always iiuiko it a point to know at least
something about tho facts before you
attempt to writo an article.
Tho young ami enthusiastic Mr. .lones
says that the editor of Tiik Oouitir.it Is
responsible for Thomas W. Keone's non
appearance in Lincoln this season. He
says that Ed Chinch says that tho
writer on, the occasion of Keone's last
appearance in this city licensed tho
tragedian of ranting and horse-play and
of acting like a hog, and that Mr. Keeno
refused to play in a town where suelf
idiotn ncY'tin orjtios. Hy tho side of mich
sublime erudition as is evidenced by
Mr. Jones and the Journal critic, tho
object of these gentlemen's indignation
unhesitatingly admits that he is an
idiot. Unfortunately we can't all be
Joneses ami Journal critics. Some few
must be Smiths ami idiots; but if Mr.
Jones had taken the tumble to look over
the tiles of the liri'iiiiuj Xt'irn in which tlio
ciiticisms written by him who is now
editor of Tiik Coumuit appealed, lie
would have seen that the words that he
put into the mouth of Mr. Church are
at ery conspicuous variance from the
facts. We did not say that Mr. Keene
ranted or that he was guilty of horse
play, or that he aetetl like a hog. In
fact our "criticisms'' rend a good deal
like the Journal's descriptions of its
wonderful world's fair portfolios. , They
ate. in fact, much too fulsome In their
flattery. 'Hut here they are:
"Kictiou has played sad havoc with the

in many respects thoiotighly unique.
He Is unlike any other character, and
the man who attempts to till tint part of

situation, in every pashage, liichurd is
consistent, and true to the traditions or

plays a romaikably keen conception of

"The poitoriuiineo of "Louis XI" as
'given by Thomas W. Keeno at tlio Lan
sing last evening was probably more
highly appi eclated than tho tragedian's
great pioduetlon of "Hlchard III." In
Louis Mr. Keene has unlimited scope
for his great ability, and while theio Is
a degree of similarity between tho two
churnotois, the actor succeeds adiuira
bly'iu making two distinct characteriza
tions. As repulsive as .ohm' character
Is Mr. Keene elicits and holds tho
deepest Interest of the audience through
out, chielly by the sharp contrasts
which he gies between Louis' mean
ness as a man, ami his intense faith la

Keene appeared at his best In tho death
scene. His groveling at the feetof the
holy father is also one of his artistic
triumphs, while his scene with Harhel

At tlrst things appeared as through a

was comparatively clear. Tin: Couiiiku
biiv Coventor Crounso silently prepar
ing to leave tho executive olllce, with
scarcely a slli of regret on his part, and
with no despairing wall of entreaty on
the part of republicans or tho people.
The governor, still wrapped in his ever
lasting mantle of reserve, ami wearing
a bouquet of touch-me-nots, was busily
engaged in attending to the mysterious
workings of the wheels in the guber
natorial cranium, uud the wheels as they
turned, rang with tho tune, "Ho! for the
United States senate; forward to battlo
Tor Manderson's senatorial miupl"
Plodding along circuitous roads whoso
sign boards conveyed tho hope that they
might ultimately end in tho governor's
olllce, whence Crounso was getting
ready to take ills departure, mtus tears,
wore seen W. J. Hroatch, T. J, Majors,
John Peters and A. E. Cady. Hroatch,
with the debonair air of a man tised to
the world and its successes and defeats,
was blithely skipping along attended by
the John L. Websters and tho Clarkes
and the anti-Itosowator crowd generally.
Tom Majors, faithful to tradition and
mindful of past benefits, luiro aloft a
gorgeous blue shirt. In his way were
many obstructions; but the cries of the
Majors' cohorts lilted the air, and the
blue shirt floated merrily in the gentle
breeze. In the distance there wus u
figure, resembling E. Rosowator, holding
out his hand to tho lieutenant governor;
bat whether we really saw this lust, or
whethor wo merely observed the reflec
tion of a desire that flitted in Mr. Majors'
mind, we do not remember.
Peters, the man with tho ted
whiskers and gritty eye, had his hat
well down over his forehead, and was
making lively tracks. John was not
dreaming while he slept; he was think
ing while he walked, and he thought in
tlio manner following, to wit: "What
is the use of a fellow's giving all of his
time to tlio party and tho central com
mittee, ami helping to run tho campaign
and elect Harrison judge, If there Isn't
something In It? And of all tho togim
that are laid away in the clothes press
of hope, is there any morn becoming
to my style of beauty, or more in koaping
with my auburn dignity than the flow
ing rolut of the governor?" Peters kept
hisoyoon lirad Slaughter, chairman of
tho state central committee, and
chuckled to himself that he had some
good friends in places where they could
do him some good.
Then there was Cady. He was taking
things very easy, evidently animated by
a desire not to arrive on the scene of
action until tho first one or two engage,
incuts had taken place, when there
might be an opening for a new man.
There went some others headed in tho
same direction as Majors, Hroatch, Peters
and Cady, but they wore too far away
to be recognizable.

In another part of the picture we saw
(ieorge II. Hastings and tho olllce of
attorney general gradually separating
themselves after a long and loving em
brace. Tho attorney general was leav
ing behind him a good renird; but ho
was taking his deep bass wristacho, and
thick, black voice along with him.
Standing by ready and a woo bit
anxious to be folded in the olllclal em
brace being given up by Hastings, were
W. S. Summers, of this city, J. L. Me
Pheely.of Minden, and W. S. Hamilton,
also of this city.

Hartley was been engaged in the same

Over in the senetary ot state's olllce
Johnny Allen was seen shilling his grip
full ot agricultural reports and other
mementos, preparatory to saying adieu
to tho familiar scenes. Standing by
watching him were Charley Caldwell,

I o
Ooudy and Humphrey were also pack-

And out in the congressional districts
Mercer, Molklojohn ami Halnor wore
getting ready to gracefully accept n re
nomination. And here the vision dickered
out,
(lovernor Croanso'H private secretary,
W. E. Andrews, will probably bo given a
second nomination for congresM in his
district, and tho chances are that ho will
bo elected. Hov. J. G. Tutu and Fred
Olinsteatl will try for tho nomination.
Church Howe In the recent campaign
addressed himself almost solely to the
old soldiers, and he placed hltnsell
directly In line for tlio position of de
partment foininaiidor of the O.A. II.
Howe has studied tho mutter very cure
fully, and there Is very littlo doubt but
that ho lias decided to becomo a candi
date for the congressional nomination,
in which event his recent earnest cum
pulgu in tho First would stand him well
In hand. A year ago Howe did not want
the nomination, as ho did not think that
himself or any other republican coald
be elected; bat he Is confident now that
ho could bo elected, uud ho wuntu the
nomination.
There's a man down In NobruB'u City
who would like tho nomination; but who
considers It beneath his dignity to work
for It. Ho would like to receive the
nomination on u gold salver with
diamond pendants would John O. Wat
son. Mr. Hryan decided some time ugo
that ho did not want u ronoinlnatlon,
having como to the conclusion that a
re-election would be hiioBsib!o. Sottio
body advances the theory, however,
that ho will bo poraumlod to try it
again by tho administration democrats,
who are itching for a chanco to have
some more fun with the congressman.
Hut Hryan will hardly bo foolish
enough to bo caught by uny such trup
uh this. At leant throo men in thin city
are hoping to secure tho republican
delegation from Lancaster county.
At tho recont .republican jollification

well informed.
Those who are in a position to know
assort that if J. D. Calhoun doesn't get
the post-olllco ho will receive some
other federal appointment equally as
good.
Tho Warld-lIcralA and other papers
persist in giving currency to tho rumor
that Hrad Slaughter Is to replace Mr.
Campbell us state librarian and clerk of
tho supreme court. Ah Tar. Couiiiku
stated two weeks ago there is nothing
in this foolish rumor. It doubtless had
its origin in the fact thut Mr. Cumpboll
and Judge Maxwell came from the
same town and are friends, and thut the
latter will retire from olllce tho tlrst of

In Chicago Mr. Potter Palmer has, for
a great many years, been widely known.
It is true enough that ho has not yet
contributed a million dollars, condition
ally, to tlio great Art Museum fund,
which is now tho pivotal jioint of con
vernation among tlio tlrst families of the
Windy City; but he has for a number
of years kept one of tho biggest, it not
quite tho most select, tavern in town; ho
has also, to quote tho words of one of
the advocates of tho Palmer boulevard,
"built up" to a great extent tho thor
oughfare now under discussion, uud,
further than this, ho is tho proprietor
I uso the term most common among

"tho Palmer Boulevard," as it is now to
be called, which is, beyond till denial,
the chief ornament of the splendid road
along tho lake that has been the pride
and delight of aristocratic Nortlisiders
over since its construction, In view ot
all theso things, it seems to mo a tritle
sad that some of Mr. Potter Palmer's

holders along the "Drive" or tho "Houle

General Joseph T. Torrence, Professor
David Swing, Mr. S. E. Gross. Mr
