Tbe city government of Berlin baa be run to consider very seriously tbe muni cipalication of tbe street railway and transportation ayateme. The corpora tion there are sow aublected to wnat over here would be denounced as term of confiscation. Berlin grant no fran chise without a payment in money of at least i&u.uuu, a guarantee to tne city treasury of from ten to twenty per cent of tbe irroM receipt and an agreement to turn tb entire plant and equipment over to tbe municipality for uotnlng in twenty year. Tbe corporation must also clean and repair tbe etreets they occupy. Tbe franchise under these terms have proved profitable to tbe compan ies, whicn most keep tneir boon open to oublio Inspection at all time. Never theleea, the city author) tie are thinking of taking tbe systems out. of the bands of tbeir present holders. In this country an attempt to make tbe corporations submit to Berlin conditions would be furiously denounced as Bryauisrn, while th court would put a atop to it a un constitutional. lwentietu Lentury. Congressman Ilolman of Indiana died aome time ago and bia aucoessor waa elected lost week. Ilolman ran 1,100 ahead of bis ticket, was supported by tb populists aud was elected by a very mall majority. Tb republican spent ocean of money tbl year, got a pop candidate in tbe field and made a great er fight than lost year, but were utterly overwhelmed, altbough their populist candidate got out) votes. rancis Mar ion Griffith, a nameeake and lineal de- cendent ol tbe great southern hero of tbe revolutionary war. was tbe demo cratie candidate and he wae elected by a very largely increased majority. In this connection It might be well enough to say that a man of brain named Francis Marion could be found nowhere le exoep on tbe side of the people and the people's liberties. The same relative gain all over the country will carry nine tenths of tbe electoral vote for Ilryan and give Dim the nest congress by one hundred and filly majority.

TALMAGE'S REMEDY. IT CONSISTS OF CHEERFUL TALK AND LARGE CHECKS. Counseling Ps to Cry, "'Peace, Peace)' Where There Is Mo Fmm"-Om Trouble Is the Doctor Doesn't Tell V Where to Get Uli Prescription Filled. Special Correspondence. Dr. T. Do Witt Tulinage baa made out a prescription for tbe cure of tbe business depression. The chief ingrodi enta are cheerfulness, Christian invest ment aud Christian geucrosity. As to tbe first he mys: Now, I will muke s contract. If the people Of the United Hiatus fur one week will tslk ohom-fullr, I will open all the ruanufaatorloa, I will Kive employniunt to ell the uiKxx'Uplcd men and women, I will make s 11 voir mm km for your real iwtulo Hint I uutlne you up with taxes, I will stop the long proamnion on the way to the puurhouse ami the pmiltunUary and I will spri'iul s plentiful tuhle from Maine to California and from Orituon to Handy Hook, and the whole land shall carol and thunder with national Jubiloe. That sort of tulk tiiukci me gnash my teeth. "If the people of the United States for one week will talk cheer fully." Why, T. Do Wlttl Doyouiiot feel ashunicd to suy a thing like that where you know it is to bo reported aud priutcd? Maybe thero isn't anybody iu your oougregutiou who knows bow silly and aballow it is. Perhupa they swnl low it all down and pay you for saying it while you are laughing iu your sleeve and tfalukiug with Puck, "What fool these mortals be I" "If everybody iu tho United State will talk cheerfully for a week," you will give employ incut to all the uuoo oupiod men und wotucu I Of course you would. So would I. You are liko the priest who promised to pray for ruiu when all his parishioner would agree na to wbut day they want ed the raiu to come. One had his hay out and wanted to get it iu before the rain, aud other wauted a delay for other reasons, und so, Just as ho knew It would be, thu raiu came before they would all agree aa to wheu their spirit ual leader should pray for it. Mice lit tle promise, wusu't it? "If everybody iu the United States will talk cheerfully for a week, " you will stop the long procession ou it way to tbe poorbouscl When I was a very little girl, I saw a beautiful bird which I tried to cutob. Some smarty told mo to put salt on Its tail and I could catnh it. So chased the bird around with a handful of salt until convinced that I must catch it before I could put the salt ou it tail, and then (be salt would be unnecessary. Yon Just stop tho long procession to tbe poorbouse and penitentiary, give employment to the idle meu aud women, open the manufactories, etc., aud I'll take a contract for supplying all ueoes sury and reasonable cheerfulness. You have the thing turned around. Instead of cheerfulness bringing about these other good things we need these other good things to bring about cheerfulness. If you don't believe it, you Just step down out of your sacred desk and out of your comfortable homo and ont of your good clothing into rug and start on your way to the poorbouse. Then let aome aleek, well fed, well groomed, comfortable looking individual meet you and tell you to talk cheerfully for week. Why, bless your soul, a person who ia half starved already would starve altogether before tho week would end. Go away, go away, Dr. Taluiuge! Building on confidence is worse thun buikling on sand, and you kuow what became of the man who buihlod his houso on tbe sand. The rains descended, the floods, and tho house fulL Whnn the Hev. T. De Witt gets through with cheerfulness, altbonKh ho promised everything good for talking cheerfully for a week, bo goes on to show that something more thuu cheer fulness is after all needed to restore prosperity. You must tuke out your checkbook and write a lurgo check for missionary sodety. Then you will grow rich. Heur him: I had a relative who IiiuIiikm buoiikhI to lie faillns.

Borden of Debt That Is Aitonlahlng and That la Rapidly Increasing. "Ooudemned to forever roll the stone that was forever to be rolled," waa tbe sentence imposed on one of the charao tera of Qroek mythology. This aentenoe ia uow Imposed ou the American toiler. we hove paid two-third of the war debt, and the remuiuing third ia bigger than the wholo of it waa when we bo gun. Uow do you make that out Cherryr Well, Just figure up how maoh it would tuke to puy $2,800,000,000 in cotton at 20 ccuts a ponud, or wheat at 3 per bushel, and compare that with what it would tuke to pay oue-third that amount in cotton at 0 cents per pound or wheat at 60 cents per bushel, If the sucker who carried a torch and "hollered" to help his side beat the other aide (of Wall street) husu't sense enough to understand these figures, Just hand tbem over to his 10-yeur-old schoolboy. At the close of the war the people were "comparatively free from debt,' aid Secretary of the Treasury McCul loch. The wur debt was all tho people owed, and nearly all this was iu circu lation among the people us the nation's legal tender money, liusiuess waa done for cash. There was a lesa per cent of credit business thuu ever before, Labor found employment on every side at high wuges and ready cash for pay. Today, after S'i yeurs of hurd work, our debts, publio and private, amount to $40,000, 000, 000 all t hut the prop erty i worth at present prices. Ours ia rich oouutry, owned largely in Eu rope. Our interest, rent and dividend pay ments to Europe amount to from $800, 000,000 to $60,000,000 a year, aud the amouut is rapidly increasing. We annually dig out of our mines from $35,000,000 to $40,000,000 of gold and from$00, 000,000 to $70,000, 000 of silver. Aud only lust year I saw poor, half starved Amerinan working' men who believed that ont of this $10,. 000,000 of gold we could pay this $380,. 000,000 to Europe iu gold and have dead loads of gold left to do business with and oocumuluto enough surplus after awhile to pay the principal. Such fellows ought to be knocked in tbe head to save feed. Hogs could be fatteuod on What they eut, and that would add omething to the country's wealth. "Bimetallism I Bimetallism!" yelled a wide mouthed orator. "Add silver too." All right. To $46,000,000, our highest annual product of gold in a dec ade, add $73,000,000 of silver, making $118,000,000 of both with which to pay to Europe $850,000,000 and have a balance left to transact our borne busi nus. Don't you see that the poor working man who vote for tbe goldbug la a blooming idiot, while the "bimetalliat" is a half opened bud on the same bush? verily, verily, I say unto you, there if 00 way under heaven or among men whereby prosperity permanent and en during can be restored to this people, and liberty aud tbe republic be main tained, except by tbe issue and perma neut maintenance of Unole Sam's abso lute, everlasting greenback. But up to date a large percent of our people, votera who have the power of government aud the deatiny of tbe re public in their hands, will not reason on these matters, but will think it mart to follow some slick demagogue who telle them how free and smart they are and who lead them with aucb claptrap and catch phrases a "honest money," "sound money" and "bimetal lism," phrases as meaningless and eustdess aa rival college yella. May Uod in hia infinite wisdom and mercy give the starving American voter uch a doso of IIurrison-Cleveland-Mo- Einley prosperity that he will use his bend for something else than a peg to bang his hut ou. John IL Cherry in Cincago Express. As It Looks to Joha Ball. The Spectator, in an article entitled Aggressions of American Wealth," refers to tho retirement of President Audrews from Brown university and President Ui-mis from Chicago unlver- ity, saying: "We run scarcely esonpo tbt conclu sion that a conspiracy exista among tbe heuds of trusts in Amorica to Inter fere with the freedom of teaohing in the universities so fur asecouomlo ques tions are concerned, iu order that noth ing shall be uttered which has not re ceived the trademark of mouopoliltio approval."
