Tlio prompt rt-pcnl ot the Bland bill ,
which requires the coinngo of B.000,000
silver dollars every month , is tlenmudfid
alike by the commercial Interestof the
country and by these of tivery intolligunt
advocate of bl-rnelnllism. All ntteinpU
to force this enormous nmount of sliver
Into thn currents of exchange have failed.
The people refuse to accept it because
they know it U worth twenty percent.
Ics ? than Its face value. It is useless In
International exchange for thn s\tno : \
reason. It falls to even expand the cur
rency because it tends inevitably to expel
gold from c.rcnlation nnd indirectly robs
the entire circulating medium of a llfth
of It ? purchasing power.
The pa&sago of the Bland law wns
urged upon the plea of ui-nietallisin. Its
ropeul will be opposed by some on the
name ground. Nothing can bs moro
false. The continued Increase of the
silver currency Is rapidly assisting to
wards making the maintenance of n
double standard Impossible. Its contin
uance SIIVOH England and Germany from
embarrassment in preserving an ex
clusively gold coinage and bo removes
from them all Inducement to consider u
Hcliomo tor tliu general use of the two
metals. The m-jst intelligent of bi-met-
allisN and the soundest ndvoc.ite of u
donblestandard , Henri Cernusuhl , writes :
1 So long as the lii-niotallist treaty , pro
posed in Ibdl by the United States and
Franco , is not accepted either by Knir-
land or by ( Jormaiiy , not ono silver live-
I ratio piece .should be coined in 1'r.inee ,
not one silver dollar Hhonld be coined in
the United Suites. In no form , under no
pretext , should .silver onrroney bo in
creased ; neither in 1'runce nor in the
United States. "
The Bland law has proved a ruinous
failure. It Inn failed to makn sihur
worth more in tlio m irkets of the world
and it cannot permanentlv make it worth
more here. It has failed to strengthen
bi-metallism , but on the conlr.iry it has
militated directly against its establish
ment. It does not m.iku dollars in the
least degree cheaper to these who earn
them , but makes them of lesj value after
they are earned It should be repealed
at once. It has had n fair tri.il mid hi3 :
been found wanting. Another law can
be framed which , while not fr.uuml in the
interest of the money power , will save
our circulating nudium from deprecia
tion and at the same time preserve to us
the bencliUi of a aoiind , stable bi-mottilliu
currency.

A Ilevlsed Turin" .
Thoghohlof the larill'problem , which
Is eonlidently expected to put in
an ( ippeantncn at the next SQSS'OM of con
gress , is already beginning to haunt the
dreams of democratic editors and to
trouble the meditations of party states
men. No one is prepared to say what
course will be adouted by the no\l com
mittee of ways and means lu framing a
bill for tarill'revision antl few are honest
and fearless enough to declare what plan
should be adopted. The same tendency
to dodge the issue and to talk all around
the question which has so disgusted ad.
vocatos of a searching revision of the tar
iff in limes past , is already
beginning lo manifest itself. 1 * 'oplo
who road between the lines have no
dillioulty in observing that the first con-
uidoration in the minds of the politicians
Is tlio ell'ect which changes in the tariff
will have.upon tliu parly prospectsthcscc- ,
end and minor consideration being the ef
fect Iho intorostsof tlio country. In all the
columns of moaningles and roundabout
discussion of what is called the tarill
question , w'.th whio'i djimar.itio editors
have favored their constituencies , wo
have failed to see a single d : liuite and
outspoken proposition for practical tariff
reform.
The preanct war tari.T Is a
patchwork of subsidies to private interests
\ \ hich in hundreds of eas s long ag > ful
lillod every end for which it was created.
One aim and thn chief aim , on the
theory of protection , was to place the
industries so Hiibs'di/.od upon a self-sus
taining basis. From the side of protec
tion iu-olf , tlio tarill' in the eases of the
iron , steel , glass , cotton , and many other
industries long ago liillilled its purpose.
These industries have been more than
suit-sustaining lor years. The lava taken
from the people in the increased cost of
the manufactured products have made
millionaiies of the manufacturers , and'
have enabled American products to com
pole , where they have not been excluded
by theul'6 t of other tariff proviiions , in
the markets of the world. From a rev
enue producing standpoint they have
also done their work. For years past the
income of the government has been
more than ample for all demands upon
the treasury , and a heavy surplus has
been p ling up in the vaults , everydollar
of which has represented a dollar taken
needlessly from the people.
Kvcry move towards a reform of the
tariff has boon impeded and blocked by
the efforts and money of the vast subsi
dized interests and manufacturing mo
nopolies which tholarill'has fo-tered and
built up. Oppos.tion to a reduction in
tariff laxes has always been able lo call
to its aid thccowatiliceol politic.ans and
the artH ot the demagogue. Labor him
been appealed to'to endoisa the theorem
that an ovoralimulat.on of mdii try and u
needless increase in the expense , ? of liv
ing were necessary for the protection of
labor. Whole sections have been delu
ded into the belief that their prosperity
depended upon the continuance of the
enormous prolits which the tariff kings
were reaping from a universal taxation
of the country. Paity plulfqrms have
dodged the issue and covered it
so with vuibnigo 'hat the average mind
cannot grasp the bearing of party declar
ations on the solution of the problem.
The mass of the people of the country
will gladly welcome a reduction of taxa
tion , .lust as soon as they under
stand that this is what a revision
of tlio tailff means , they will
cheerfully Mippoj > tariff revision. There
should bit no further delay ia letting the
public understand that tlio relent on of
the tarill'on many classes of eommoJi-
tics in simply and purely a cash bonn > to
great monnjinlliU whieh is of no practic
al benelit to American laborers and m >
chankvi. So far as ihc levunuo icquru ! >
menls will permit the tarill on mannlao *
lured iron and .steel , onvindov g IIM ,
woolens and oottona , should be greatly
reduced if not rjnuvuJ. A heavy re.
duel.on of Iho taxes on ' raw ma
terials \\ould do more to onconragu
American industry and Mimnlato Ameri
can manufactures limn \\holu volume
ot tariff legislation.
Let it bo understood that the issue
js not that of protection or Irjj tr.i.le.
Fruo trade la now nnd will /or years to
comt ) be an imposuUility in this country.
The revenue ri'ipiiremi'iili of the gover i-
men ! w 11 not permit the abolition of the
tar.ll even were it generally oonsnlorod
ad\inablo. The pjiisio.i drafts , the do-
mauds upon lao treasury for funds to
meet interest on the bonded debt , the
Una ! retirement of the bond- . thepis'l\cs
(
all demand the I'ontinuanee of a modi
fied tariff. What U needed is a reunion
ot the tailff whieh will place every Indus

A i-orrraponilenf of Iho Now York Sun ,
writing from Xorllt I'lalto , Nob. , frays : A
jmigo whose oironlt takes in nhont half
of Iho state of Nebraska , where there are
few railroads and almost no conven
iences , docs not have an easy time of U ,
but ho may be the very best kind of a
magistrate. The man who deals out jus.
lieu iu the callb country of Nebraska
holds court to-day In a town near Kan
sas , and nuxtvvouk sits in a piimilivo
coin ! .several hundred miles away In the
direction of Dakota , must bo energetic
and induslrlinis , and If at tlui s-ime time
ho administer justice promptly and at
small expense , ho will pass tor u pretty
good judge.
The froiillorsmeu of western Nebraska
believe that they have such a character
in Judge Oiislin , who has been on the
bench m the cowboy country for several
jours , and who promises to remain there
as long as 1m fives. IIo has enemies
among ( lie evil doer.s , as a mailer of
couive , and occasionally a new lawyer

judge is not a believer in new trials.

when he get.s bold of a eiiminal or civil
cnse some cud must bo readied , and th it
quickly. He has established n reputa
tion among the cowbo.vs vvhiih H tno
envy ol all oilier Inn. tier judges ; and
though ho m well along inears , and
could nut make much ot a light himself ,
there is not a eow camp anywhere in
western Nebraska , where Jndiro Uaslin's
presence would not immediate ! ; , put
ovei'i body on h s good behavior. He is
rcHpoe.ted as well as feared , and it has
been said that his presence at an out
break on the purl ot the boys anywhere
would be worth more than thai ot a regi
ment of troops.
A few years ago ho arrived in Ogallula
rather unexpectedly to moat people , and ,
going lit onrn to tno hotel , proceeded to
cut h H supper It was Home time alter
llio iMiul hour for the ovoniu' ; meal , and
about litty cowboys and others had as-
somblud in the bartoom. It vvas raining
bard. The boys had bneii in town s.'V-
oral days , drinking heavily , and tlio
peaceful citizens were in momentary fear
ot an outbreak. That evening the rain
had driven them indoors , and H was not
long befoio they worn in a wrangle. Ity
the lime that tno judge had finished his
B ippor all hands vvuro yelling , swearing
and threatening , and thn landlord was
poiitive that there would bo dhootlng be-
lore many minutes had elapsed. For the
sake of preserving the peace , he per
suaded the jud e to walk into the bar
room before rnliring. A.s the well-known
iiirnru entered the moke-burdiined room
one man hud just made a lui go tor an
other with his list and there was a rush
by all hands to see what thn trouble was.
Tn o man who was down rose with a re
volver in eiieh hand , swearing there
would 1m fair play if he had to clean out
the room. Two or three ollur.s hcid
weapons , and in a moment. ium | > nome of

not ono of the men standing on the edge
ot the crowd exclaimed.

In an inslant everything was a quiet

bolls Irom vviiicli they had been drawn ,
while ( ho men wo | | hud been dutng most
ot the loud talking crawled away out of
sight. 1'res'jnily one man , more solf-
posscHnod than l lie others , advanced and
greeted the Judge , lollowud by many
more , and as each one came np be had
.something loay about tlio | ni\s \ having
a little Inn -Hull's all. " The Judge
maintained a very grave expression un
til llio follow who had been on the point
of cleaning out Ibo room made his ap
pearance at ilus end of tno procession ,
and nndeitoiik to say something about
being excited over a political dim'u-slon ,

heard during llio night , though they
drank to the olJ muij'.s licaltu many

On ono occasion , when the judge wns
holding court in a far Ronthwu.stcrn
country , lie had a man bolore him for
deadly assault , who had made out a
pretty good cusu of mistaken identity.

the judge invited the jury lolinton to the
iirisonor'ri anKWcr.sto thoiicHliunu | which
no was about lo propound. Tfiu detend-
aut turned pale , and after swallowing
the lump in his throat Ivvo or llireo times ,

with the remark that the people were in
beggary nnd that a now trial would cost
a good deal of money , to which the judge
milled ; "Uovvlll have to bo satisfied

ber that the people have no money to
waste ou two ( rials when one will do

At another time when there was a
pressing need of expedition and ecoiiomv
lie ad.iieKsod a jury In these words : "TI o
ease now goes lo you , gentlemen. I
have no doubt of the prisoner's guilt , and

ever , some Instructions from the prison
er s counsel , vvhloh it is desired that I
should road to you , nnd I will do so ; but
I want \ou to undio > tand right bore that

'I be instructions were rend , and a vcr-
diet of guilty was rendered.

To thu Editor : The principal interostsrf
( iarheld county are agriculture and Mock
raising combined in such a ninnmir as to
make each moro valuable t an if separ
ate. Sueh a variety of soil Is seldom
seen elsewhere , and thn result is tu !
county has no over supply of any o m
pioduet. The black sandy loam of the
Loup valley will product ) almost any crop
tlmt thrives in this latitude. Corn is the
staple , although all small rain yields ro-
markaldy well. Oats runs from sixty to
eighty bushels per acre. Vegetables grovv
as large as you want thorn , with radishes
weighing six or seven pounds , turnips
raised on sod without any cultivation
whatever that would niako nn Illinois
tanner's eyes to bulge out. And such
potatoes I will not attempt to discribo
tneir Hi/n. \
A lew miles east of the Loup thn so'l
seems to contain moro clay and is. in my
eslimat on , as good farm land as that
which sells in tno older states for 75 per
aero. This is in the ueighborhoodi
lican eriiuk and , as in all mvv ; countries ,
money is scarce nnd many goyd tarn s
can bu purchased lor less than their mil
value.
What a magnificent chaneo for a lilllo
capital. Investments in real estate that
in the cast pay a scant Ii per cent here
would nay nearer 'J percent per month
on the utcrcamiig value pi the land , be
sides llio rent.
What do tliu eastern capitalists mean
by allowing Mioli golitui ) opportunities f >
pasa ? It must bo tii.il tnoy cannot reali/.i
i.io progress.on of the vyo.st ; but mil it ,
wait a year or s.i until our railroads
come , and then pay double the price that
id now asked.
Four years ago this was all govern
ment land. Now it is woi ih about ten
dolluis per aero , and I predict that in
lour years it vyi | | bu woilh nearer

This is the linc&t slock country I have
