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.

disregarded just as much as ever by
the parties here who did the talking
some lime ago as they are falling

us of the temperance lecture who
told us to "Do as he told us and not

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. Nebraska Farmer.

Panics have occurred heretofore,
but thev have been traceable to
clearly defined events which pro
voked and promoted them. 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.
