June 27, tJP' THE WEALTH MAKERS. THE LIBERALS ARE OUT. lORDfiOSEBERY'S GOVERNMENT STEPS DOWN AND OUT. LORD SALISBURY CALLED. The Queen Accept the Beslgnatlon of the Minis ton Without Regret sir . William Vernon Harcourt Makes the Official Announcement In the House of Commons Other Foreign New. London, June 25. It was announced In the Court Gazette yesterday that as a result of the defeat of the Liberals in the house of commons Friday on a mo tion to reduce the salary of the secre tary of state for war because of de ficiencies, Lord Rosebery, at his inter view with the queen Saturday evening tendered the resignations of himself and his ministers to the queen and her majesty at once summoned Lord Salis bury, leader of the Conservatives, to Windsor to consider the formation of a Conservative ministry. This after noon it was officially' announced that Lord Salisbury had accepted the task of forming a new cabinet. Speaker William Court Gully took the chair in the house of commons at -3 o'clock and soon afterward the sec retary of state for war, H. Campbell Bannerman, entered amid prolonged Liberal cheers. Mr. Balfour followed and was greeted with vigorous cheers from his supporters. At 3:30 o'clock the chancellor of the exchequer, Sir William Vernon Har court, entered the house and the Lib erals rose in a body and cheered him to the echo. The supporters of Mr. Chamberlain made a similar demon stration when the Unionist leader en tered. Sir William Vernon Harcourt said: ""It is my duty to make the announce ment to the house that the division of Friday last was a vote of censure of the secretary of war, than whom never more able, respected or popular minister held office. The govern ment, of course, associated themselves with their colleagues and, feeling that they were unable to pass the votes ior supply, the government resigned and their resignation was accepted. Under ordinary circumstances it would have been incumbent to move an adjournment, but the seals fishery bill must be passed before July, and when it has passed its third reading the government will move the adjourn ment of the house." The chancellor of the exchequer then thanked his supporters and acknowl edged the consideration showed to the .government by its opponents. Tears were in the eyes of Sir William when he uttered the last words. Mr. Balfour criticised the conduct of the government. He said he thought the constitutional manner of proceed ing would have been to advise the queen to dissolve parliament instead of throwing the burden of continuing the government on the opposition. At 2:22 o'clock the house went into committee on the seals fisheries bill and after a brief debate passed it to third reading and adjourned. It was rumored shortly afterward that Sir William Vernon Harcourt , would not present himself as a candi date for re-election and that the con cluding words of his thanks to the house of commons were in reality a val edictory. Few were present in the house of lords when Lord Rosebery rose at 3:45 o'clock to announce the resignation of the cabinet. The prince of Wales, the duke of York and the duke of Cam . bridge sat on the crown's bench. The galleries were crowded with peeresses and a number of members of the house of commons were present in order to hear the statement of the retiring pre mier. Lord Rosebery, amid deep silence, said: "I desire to make a very brief statement which the house has un- -doubtedly anticipated. After the vote of the house of commons on Friday, which was practically a vote of censure on the secretary of war on a ques tion of national defense, immediately after there had been laid before the ganization, the government felt it their duty to place their resignations in the hands of the queen. Their resignations were accepted and the government will hold office until their successors are appointed. " The Earl of Cranbrook, Conserva tive, said that the Marquis of Salis bury, had desired him to say that he wished the house to adjourn until to morrow. ' Lord Rosebery remarked that there was only one very important bill, the aeal fisheries, which would be proceed ed with, and he expressed the hope that it would pass all its stages to-morrow. The Daily News (Liberal) says: 'The queen accepted Earl Rosebery's resignation, as she accepted Mr. Glad stone's, without any expression of re luctance with which she favored Lord Salisbury." Appointments by Governor Stone. Jefferson City, Mo., June 25. Gov ernor Stone to-day made the following appointments: James Bannerman and Otto E. Forster, police commisssoners of St. Louis; Charles Evans, state coal mine inspector; Francis A. Legrave, state inspector of lead and zinc mines. "The latter two were reappointments. HuHhand and Wife Murdered. Bakboursville, Ky.,June 25. Word has been received here that Gus Loeb and his wife Julia, Hebrew peddlers, were murdered in Ilarlau county yes terday by masked men. Robbery was the only cause for the crime. The murderers have not been captured. i Evidence to Be Printed. Washington, June 25. Clerk Kerr , Vpf the house to-day sent the evidence j in the Van Horn-Tarsney contested election case to the public printer and, in accordance with the terms of a new stipulation sent on by counsel, all the evidence on both sided will be printed. HAWAIIAN CABLE. From Honolulu to Monterey, CaL, the latest Route Suggested. Washington, June 25. An Austra lian company not organized in the in terest of the British government pro poses to lay a cable by way of Hono lulu to Monterey, Cal., providing the United States will assist, or the com pany will agree to sell to the United States that part of the cable from Hon olulu to California at the cost of con struction. Audley Coole, of Australia, now at Honolulu, sends word that he will be here at the beginning of the next session of congress to push the matter. The first link in this cable has already been laid from Australia to New Caledonia. Mr. Coole sends word that his company is prepared im mediately to proceed with laying the cable from California to Honolulu. The company regards Honolulu as the natural center of Pacific cable lines. While expressing the highest respect for the Hon. Sanf ord Fleming and his associates who are back of the exclu sively British cable scheme, Mr. Coole regards the plan as chimerical of mak ing Fanning' Island the first station from Victoria to Australia. The length of such a line, allowing for- slack, would be 3,000 miles. The longest ex isting cable now does not exceed 2,300 miles. Such a length will require a cable of excessive weight and conduct ing power, costing double the price of one from Monterey to Honolulu. Hon olulu is also the natural point for a branch line to Japan. England de sires and insists on exclusive owner ship of telegraphic connection between her Pacific colonies. Such desire must be extremely urgent, Mr. Coole says, to induce going by Honolulu to roost on such an inaccessible rock as Neckar Island or on such a desolate Wand as Fanning's. In this case England makes her military interests superior to her commercial interests. BRECKINRIDGE'S HOPES. Believes That He Ha a Chance to Be come Senator. Lexjngton, Ky., June 25. The Breckinridge men, who believe that the silver-tongued orator of Madeline Pollard fame has a fighting chance to be elected to the United States senate, are doing all they can to defeat Black burn. They are determined to elect Breckinridge representatives from every county in the Seventh dis trict, at least, and if the Democrats succeed in electingany legislators from Eastern Kentucky, nearly all of them can be counted on as being for Breck inridge. The removal of a Blackburn man from a place in the revenue ser vice in order to make room for Desha Breckinridge, a son of the colonel, has brought about an almost open ruption between the two factions. TO BE PROSECUTED. Kansas Ex-Warden of the Penitentiary Charged With Misusing Funds. Topeka, Kan., June 25. Ex-Warden Chase is to be prosecuted by state offi cials for misappropriation of public funds. When the legislative commit tee was appointed to investigate Chase's management of the prison, he was suspended by Governor Morrill and Deputy Warden Markham was in stalled as warden. For several years Oklahoma has ' been keeping prisoners in the Kansas penitentiary on con tract. While Chase was under suspen sion he went to Guthrie and collected 82,300, part of which he used in paying the salaries of himself and members of his family. Under the law this is misappropriation of public funds, and state officials will institute criminal proceedings against the ex-warden. Work for the1 Dawes Commission, Sottth McAlksteb, Ind. Ter., June 25. The Dawes commission, consist ing of Messrs. Armstrong, Cabaness, Montgomery and McKennon, accom panied by Allen R. Boyd, private sec retary to the commission, arrived in the city to-day and will make South McAlester their headquarters. Their first work will be to try and induce the Indians to grant titles to town sites and permit the incorporation of towns and cities. Then they will con sider the allotment question. I'almage Scored. Mason City, Iowa, June 25. Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage, who is engaged to lecture at Clear Lake next Sunday, and to which Sunday excursions are advertised to run on all railroads cen tering here, was roundly denounced from the Methodist and other pulpits of the city yesterday. Talmage was severely censured for allowing himself, for a monetary consideration, to be the attraction for causing many to desecrate the Sabbath. Woman Horse-Thief. St. Joseph, Mo., June 25. A woman horse-thief is wanted by the officers of this and adjoining counties. Last night William and Joseph Miller lost a valuable team, which was left un hitched in front of a saloon just north of the city. To-day a woman was seen driving the team headed for the Iowa line. Officers are after her. She is believed to be the same person who has run off valuable stock from De kalb county. Elopers Held by Officers. St. Joseph, Mo., June 25. John Gul Hon and Ella Applegate, elopers from Shenandoah, Iowa, are detained here by officers at the instance of the girl's parents. Gullion is 18, and the girl 16 years of age. They attempted to procure a marriage license here, but, owing to their youthfulness, were re fused. Thirty People Injured. NewBedfobd, Mass., June 2 6 An ilectric car containing sixty passen gers, on the Warmouth Western rail road, jumped the track about two miles from this citv yesterday rolling over and injuring thirty pec pie, two fatally. A Deacon as a Stage Robber. Ukiah, Cal., June 25. David Old ham, a deacon in the Baptist church, has been arrested for robbing the Men docino stage a week ago. He had an accomplice, a man named Hilton, who has confessed, implicating Oldham ARE THESE THINQS TRUE? Have Certain Men Deliberately Bargained to Deliver the Populist Vote to the Democracy f Commenting upon the action of the Iowa populist convention the Des Moines Leader says: "Some of the most influential lead ers of the populist party, who had been encouraged by the apparent growth of the silver sentiment among democrats and republicans, bad devised a plan of campaign which involved two princi pal points and upon which it has hoped to carry the state: First, an expression from the populist convention that as it considered the silver question the lead ing one before the people and the par ticular reform whioh should be at tempted, the populists of the state were willing to combine with any party in Iowa which would also de clare for the free coinage of silver at id to 1; second, that the nominee of the convention should be a free silver democrat, whose nomination the demo crats of Iowa, at Marshalltown, with some show of consistency, could in dorse. The candidate who was se lected for this double candidacy was no less a person than ex-Congressman White. This plan was laid before leading silver democrats and had their indorsement. They were to work to capture the democratic convention, while Gen. Weaver and his friends at tended to the populist convention. The details, of this conspiracy, if such it may be called, have never hereto fore been published, but that it ex isted those concerned will hardly care to deny. , - 'The defeat, therefore, in the popu list convention of the leaders who were engineering the plan promises to have effect upon the politics of the state more than appears from the record. It means that it will be impossible for the silver leaders of the democratic party to say to the Marshalltown convention: 'Here are the populists, about 30,000 in number, whom you can get for your nominee if you will indorse the free coinage of silver.' It implies that the first and the vital step in the pro gramme has failed; that the carefully built house of cards has toppled over. Whether the democrats nominate a gold monometallist or a silver mono metallist, adopt, free coinage of silver, or indorse the national democratic platform, or whatever other course may be pursued, the populist strength will be given to the populist candidates. The populists have declined in advance to be caught by the free silver bait, and the planners who have been so in dustriously at work for the last two or three months have for sale a badly bat tered second hand scheme. "It will be easily seen that the talk which has been going on in the popu list newspapers concerning the candi dacy of Sibley, of Pennsylvania, has been the cloak which concealed the real purpose herein outlined. ' Sibley does not run until next year, anyway, but under cover of a single plank movement for him, it was hoped to make the way clear for a fusion be tween the democrats and populists of Iowa upon a free silver platform. As the situation now is, the democratic convention, which is to meet at Mar shalltown, has had taken away from it what promised to be one temptation. The populists themselves have killed fusion before it was born, and even on the lowest plane of politics one of the strongest pleas for the indorsement of free coinage has been removed. From the standpoint of political expediency and the mere capture of votes there is not the argument for a free silver plat form that existed last week." MONEY. It Is the ' Creation of Law Its Use In Trade. Money is a device, a system or thing thought out by men, to make barter, a trading of one thing for another, easier. A trade made with paper tokens is just as good, just as fair, just as valid as a trade made by gold or made direct. It is illogical to say money must have intrinsic value, for that would mean , trading a horse for its , value in gold, which is barter of commodities, for the horse seller did not want gold, but something to use. If the token must have value as a pro tection against loss then why not have diamonds a legal tender for large amounts (fools think diamonds have great value) because they would be easier . to carry than a large sack of gold. And if intrinsic value is necessary why , is silver used and nickle used and copper used? These are the only money the poor, ever see and the cheap stuff is good enough for them to be paid in, I suppose. The law makes money. Anything the law says is a legal tender will pay a debt. And no money will buy a thing the owner does not want to sell. All the business done with Ben Franklin's fiat colony script was bona fide business and as much so as any done to-day with the paper promises to pay gold. It is to the interest of bankers and lenders to deceive the people, and the bankruptcies and suicides and crimes how how well they are succeedings. Coming Nation. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? Is This Genuine News oris It Simply an Ef fort to Save the Democratic Party. ' The democratic press is just now finding out that W. H. Harvey, the noted author of "Coin," is a populist. The Nashville Banner Bays: "The Washington Star has published the refusal of Mr. Harvey, author of "Coiu'siFinancial School," to take part in the democratic silver - convention in Springfield, 111. Mr. Harvey declines upon the ground that he is a populist. A Washington special to the Atlanta Journal says: 'News comes from Chi cago, which is conceded to be true, that Mr. Harvey is an avowed populist and looks to the free silver agitation as the means of disrupting the demo cratic party.'

The organization is the people's party. If the free silver men outside the people's party will join the party it will be able to carry the next presidential election and free coinage of silver will again become the law of the land. Can any other party accom plish this end? Can the democratic, divided as it is on the silver question? As for the republican party, it is op posed to silver in nearly every state. Missouri World. United States Senator Marion But ler, of North Carolina, has written a letter suggesting that the state com mittee of the people's party of that state should at once declare for a con stitutional amendment providing for an income tax. He says he will, -next fall, introduce in the United States senate a constitutional amendment to that e fleet to be submitted to the vari ous states for ratification. Populist state committees and conventions should resolve in favor of the amend ment the first time they meet. Pro gressive Farmer. I know that the world's stock of precious metals is none too large, and I see no reason to apprehend that it will ever be so. Mankind will be for tunate indeed if the annual production of gold and silver coin shall keep pace with the annual increase of population and industry. According to my views of the subject, the conspiracy which seems to have formed here and in Eu rope, to destroy by legislation and oth erwise, from three-sevenths to one half the metallic money of the world, is the most gigantic crime of this or any other age. The consummation of such a scheme would ultimately entail more misery upon the human race than all the wars, pestilence and famines that ever occurred in the history of the world. John Q.

' v ev urn sTaVsV ,-Sk 11 sfeaTI la1:. t - .1 The Baltimore Plan, now practically endorsed by President Cleveland, is attracting universal attention because it is based on the evident fact that the currency and banking systems of the country must be re formed. But is the Baltimore plan a reform? It gives the associated banks the power to expand the currency and relieve the country. It also gives them the power to contract it at will and create universal distress for their own private gain. It puts the credit of the government behind every bank note. It donates all but half of one per cent of the profit on the note issue to the banks, and it leaves plenty of opportunities for a Napoleon of Finance to wreck a bank and leave the government to pay the notes. It leaves the banks free to demand the highest interest that the several states will allow, and affords no relief to farmers and business men of moderate capital. Contrast with this - The Hill Banking System. In "Money Found," an exceedingly valuable and instructive book published by Charles H. Kerr & Company of Chicago, and for sale at the office of this paper at 25 cents, Hon. Thos. E. Hill proposes that the government open its own bank in every large town or county seat in the United States, pay 3 per cent on long time deposits, receive deposits subject to check without interest, and loan money at the uniform rate of 4 per cent to every one offering security worth double the amount of the loan. This plan is not an expense to the government, but a source of large revenue. ' It secures the government amply, which the Baltimore plan does not. It relieves the distress of the common people, which the Bal timore plan does not. It protects not only note-holder? but depositors, who are un secured now and under the Baltimore plan" would be still worse off. In a word, the Baltimore plan is in the interest of the bankers, the Hill Banking System is in the interest of the people.
