WEDNESDAY, JUNE 28th, 18C3. Hundreds and thousands of coz pie are ready to start out for the world's fair iust as soon as the railroads drop the fare to the proper notch. The railroads are rather slow in coming to the conclusion that they are losing money hy maintaining stiff rates. The nettv fliners of the Era at Register Baldwin, of the U. S. land office is spite work that does Mr. Baldwin no harm nor that paper good. The refusal of the register to throw a little patronage to the Era accounts for these petty assaults. Ax exchange calls the attention of the public to the fact that not a single man has been appointed to office under the present adminis tration because of his services to the Union armv. Grover owes much to the southern democrats and he can not afford to offend them by plac ing in office men who won laurels at the head of a regiment of Union soldiers. The state board of equalization, consisting of Governor Crounse, Auditor Moore and state Treaurer Bartley, has completed its work of assessing the railroad property m this state and Monday afternoon the figures were given to the pub lic. The sleenine and dining cars are assessed"-ur acertain number of miles run in the state. Thev are assessed at $3,000 per car. The Bur lington and Missouri, main line, 301.51 miles is assessed at $11,300 per mile: Union Pacific, main line, 467.22 is assessed at 11,000 per mile; the other roads range from $3,000 to $0,000 per mile. There are 5,534.82 miles of road in the state, assessed at $28,573,058, an average of $5,192,42 per mile. Of telegraphs there are 292,977 miles, assessed at $122,951.10. The sleeping and dining cars are as eessed at $92,GS4.G5 a total assess ment of railroad properties of S2S, 850,093.73. Major S. G. Bkock. the retired chief of the bureau of statistics in speaking of the financial condition of the countrj- says: The basis of all credit is confidence in the gov ernment, its politics and its meas ures. That confidence is wanting at this time,5 and in the present administration. These is much apprehension as to the financial legislation of the next congress. It is also an open secret that the bankers of this country have little or no confidence in the present management of the treasury. The course thus far pursued has been so vacillating and uncertain as con stantly to awaken apprehension. Again, the manufacturers are un willing to enlarge their business, undertake any new enterprises, or increase their products be3'ond im mediate demands, because of the threatened tariff legislation. This uncertainty as to financial measures and tariff legislation has caused the apprehension that exists in all busi ness circles, restraining investments producing a stringency in money markets and stringent in values. Unfounded Pear At the congress of finance and commerce at Chicago iast week, Congressman Walker, who has gained an enviable reputation for knowledge of finance, made some suggestive remarks and proposed a remedy that is certainly worthy of consideration, says the Inter Ocean. Why, asks Mr. Walker, is it that, while the American stock of visi ble gold coin is $337,000,000 against but $125,000,000 of English stock, the American mind continually is haunted by dread of inability to meet outstanding obligations in gold, while the English never is troubled by such fear? It cannot be because" of our so-called foreign indebtedness, for, as Mr. Walker points out, England carries on a foreign trade in the proportion of $25 of liabilities to every dollar of visible gold coin, -while, the Ameri can foreign trade represents little more than $2 of commerce to every $1 of visible gold. The cause sug gested by Mr. Walker seems plaus ible; we carry more money in the form of government reserves than we have need for. We do not, he contends, so much need more money as full and free use of the mouey that we now have. England gets along easily, savs Mr. Walker, with $125,000,000 of j - j , visible coin, and vastly larger than maiiv is free from 2V2.000.000 of which $50,000,000 is silver. iiut the United States with $337,000,000 of visible gold and $468,000,000 of visible silver is in periodical disturb ance. He notes also that most of our trade is domestic. He concludes that our banking system is inferior to that of Eng land or Germany. He argues, and gives figures in support of argu ment, that a saving of 1 per cent could be made on every" American loan were the English system in vogue here. This would meau a saving of $22,000,000 a vear. To this he adds $20,000,000 as the in terest on $400,000,000 of coin which, as he claims, is carried in atcpss of the real need of the country. That is to sav, he charges a loss of 42,000,000 a year to our present system of finance. Prices and "Wages The report of the senate com mittee appointed to investigate the subject of prices and wages for the last fifty years presents some very interesting and significant facts, ays an exchanee. It shows, in a geu- a our foreign trade own. ber- scare with but visible coin, of eral way, that there has been a steadT improvement in the condi tion of the laboring population. That is to say, the cost of living has gradually decreased and the rate of wages has gradually in creased. The workingman receives more for his services at present than he has ever received before, and the articles that he mainly buys are to be had at lower figures than he has ever before obtained them. This effectually disposes of the melancholy talk about the al leged misfortunes of the industrial classes. They are earning twice as much as they earned fifty years ago, and it docs not require so much by at least one-fourth to purchase what they need. It is true that the' are not now satisfied to live as "they lived at that time, and that the gain is according not repre sented in actual money or property; but the fact remains that they have profited in the measure stated, and that there has been a corre sponding addition to their comfort and and happiness. They are bet ter housed, fed and clothed than the laborers of any other country. Their chances of employment have been materially enlarged, and the poorest among them are not de prived of the opportunity to better their condition by honest industry and economy. o The case of the stata of New York against the executors of the Jay Gould estate to compel them to pay $730,000 to the state in pur suance of the provisions of the in heritance tax law promises to become a noted case in the law reports on the subject of taxing inheritances. It will not, however, come into the courts before autumn. There will be a hearing before the appraiser appointed for the estate before it is brought before the sur rogate on the points of law invoved. Mr. Gould's executors claim that the $5,000,000 bequeathed to George Gould as "payment for services" is exempt as a debt chargeable against the estate. This will be one of the points to be decided by the court. The Gould executors have already paid in $500,000, their estimate of what the tax should be. This was done to avoid the penalty of 10 per cent imposed under the law if the tax is not paid within the prescribed time. Ex. The New York Sun wants Sec retary1 Gresham to surrender his pension of $30 as an example to other pensioners who, though en titled to the perquisite, do not need it in their business. Walter was dangerously wounded at the battle before Atlanta and was in hospital nearly a year. There is no question that he has earned the pension several times over and there is no likelihood that he will surren der it voluntarily when there is so magnificent a prospect of attaining private citizenship when the Cleve land administration runs its brief and unsatisfactory course. Then the $30 a month may come in hand' to offset accounts at the corner grocery. Journal. We hear a great' deal in the sil ver papers about the alleged growth in sentiment in favor of the double standard in England. Such stories are as old as the passage of the first of our silver laws after the war. Several international monetary con ferences have been held in this in terval, and in none of them has England shown any leaning toward silver. In the gathering of this sort held a few months ago she certainly displayed no disposition of this kind. England would be glad to see every other country in the world declare for free silver, but she proposes to stick to the gold standard. Globe Democrat.

Conway and Abshire shipped a carload of hogs on Friday. The saloon has commenced busi ness with Newt Thorn by behind the bar. Most of our people have preferred that it should be started in some other town than this, but it seems to draw business and ugets there just the same." The old say ing "practice what you preach" is disregarded just as much as ever by the parties here who did the talking some lime ago as they are falling over to see who gets to test "Mr. Anhauser Busch" first. It reminds us of the temperance lecture who told us to "Do as he told us and not as he did." Tramps, bicyclists and emigrant wagons are almost as thick as the buffalo gnats and the question that often presents itself is "Where can they be going." Harry Lute, of Paxton, visited friends here on Sunday. Mrs. White was a county seat visitor on Friday. Fred Hutton and Elmer Coates are building a high picket fence around Iddings lumber 3-ard. Now Mr. Holtry you had better do the same or you will have to furnish all the "Midnight Lumber" instead of half as heretofore. A number of Hershey ladies visi ted with Mrs. Carpenter on Sunday.

Mr. Cooley and family have re turned to this vicinity. He has bought Chas. Ganoung's corn crop, and is now staying on Joe Little's place. Quite a number of the young people of this place gave Jennie McNicol a pleasant surprise party last Tuesday in honor of her birth day. The evening was spent in playing games .and a pleasant time was passed. Mrs. W. Stearus is still conval ascent. Farmers are commencing to mow grass as hay is getting pretty scarce now.

James H. Seatton has been ap pointed by the village board as street commissioner to fill a vacant caused by the resignation of P. E. Sullivan. In the course of events a social dance was to have to 'taken place at the new residence of Mr. Klein holtz Saturday evening, and an abundant supply of refreshments were stored in the cellar awaiting the arrival of the guests. Owing to the intense heat of the weather c party of guests from Wallace were unable to contain themselves until the appointed hour, so a de tachment in which was mixed a minor portion of the village board, headed by the mayor, visited the rendezvous "Friday night and ex hausted the supply of refreshments. Another consiguient was tele graphed for and received Saturday so that the entertainment was car ried out according to programme.

The farmer with a bin full of old wheat may be said to be occupying a reserved seat at the demonstra tions that have been taking place of late in the financial and commer cial world. At least the big re serve of wheat that is hanging over the country at the present time is something like a millstone on a man's neck, inasmuch as it is so large that if another such a crop should materialize on top of it there would be adequate cause for long continued depressions on that staple. But the government crop report just issued indicates a shortage of about 100,000,000 "bushels or more as compared with last year's crop. In this view of the case the reserved seat now occupied by first or origi nal holders of wheat may not come so high after all. Wheat however is flatter than it has been in thirty years and if; may require some weeks to mend matters. The financial stringency of the hour is so much against normal conditions in the commercial world that it is hopeless to expect a summary conclusion to the close times that have fallen up on us.

The present "panic" so far as it can be called such or to put it more cor rectly, the present stringency is as causeless as any event can be that is entirely without cause. It originated in somebody's belief that there would be a panic, or that it was time for a panic. The whole .thing makes up a bad case of com mercial and financial hypochondria.
