pursued this latter course during his

lie has finally tf n compelled, in the in- !

Ik the people of the United States had
nny doubts as to President Cleveland's
position with respect to the tlnancial
policy vt the country his letter to (lov
ernor Northern, of Georgia, and pub
lished in the Atlanta ftntMitx itm, should
rein ..-them. In this letter, after ex-prccs-ing
surprise that there should le
any doubt as to the pi-ition, In' says:
"1 want a currency that is stable and
sate in the hands of our eopIe. I will
not knowingly be implicated in a condi
tion that will justly make me in the
lear-t degree answerable to any laborer or
farmer in the United States for a shrink
age in the purchasing jwer of the dol
lar he has received fur a full dollar's
worth of work, or for a good dollar's
worth of product of his soil. I not only
want our currency to le of such a char
acter that all kinds of dollars will be of
eipial purchasing power at home, bat I
want it to be of such n character as will
demon.-trate abroad our wiiisom and
good faith, thus placing us upon a firm
foundation and rt dit among the nations
of the earth. I want our financial con
ditions and the laws relating to our cur
rencj safe and n-iuring that those
who have money will spend and invest
it in biiMiiessand new enterprises instead
of hoarding it. You cannot cure fright
by calling it foolish and unreasonable
and you cannot prevent the f righti-uctl
man from boarding his money. I want
truod sound and stable money, and a
j condition of confidence that will keep
it in Use."
As to the silver (piestionhe is uneipiiv
i it-ally in favorof the re-al of the Sher
man law. At the same time he is a
friend of silver, but is opposed to the
fiee and unlimited coinage of silver by
this country alone and ind'ndent
ly, holding that the projM-r place for sil
ver in our currency can only l' fixed
by a re adjustment of our currency leg
islation and the inauguration of a con
sistent comprehensive financial scheme
which can only In-entered upon profi
tably and hopefully after the real of
the Sherman law, which is charged with
all our financial wots. In the present
State of public mind, this law cannot Ix:
built upon or patched in such a way as
to relieve the situation.
Tins will be an important week in th.
United States Senate. Something of a
definite nature, says the Philadelphia
ll'ialil, may be done looking to the re
peal of the infamous Sherman silver
law. The sooner the senate in its ma
jority overrides the distuiln-d minus of
the silver leaders and their werful but
decidedly objectionable arguments, the
better it will be for the prosperity of the
nation. Something in the way of a
level headed, can fully executed move to
upset the obstructions to repeal and rout
the obstreperous anti-rceal kickers
Woulil lie a blessing for the country,
-pi,,, straight out silvcrites and mongrels
of the Cameron kind have stirred up
nothing but grave apprehension a tend-
ency to despondency in the business
world. All the good accomplished by
the prompt, desirable and decisive ac
tion of the House in voting for uncon
ditional repeal has sadly suffered through
the obstructionists and their delays.
Careful observers now think that the
time is at hand for the silvcrites to re-
I eeive a set back. 1 he objectors have

UasliiiigN'ii Lettrr.
Washington, Oct. .", 180.'. Senators
Vorhees, tSorman and Palmer, at differ
ent timtS this week took occasion to de
fend President Cicvelan.1 from the news-j..ii-
charge, which Senator Stewart
!.,i-t ikeiily dignilied by reading in the
Senate, of attempting by the use of pat
ronage lo control tiie legislative branch
of the government. Of course iveiy
body in Washington knows a weli as
thtsethne Snators do that Pnsi.'ent
Cleveland n-i!S no defense, but there
m;iv In- jH'ople elsewhere w ho are liable
to he misled by constant reiteration f
the chaige. When Senator Palmer told
Senator Su wart ttiat it he would name
one senator who had been controlled by
the President through patronage he
would gladly join him in getting a reso
lution passed providing for an investi
gation, Seuator Stewart did not name a
senator, Why? Sim; !y liecaiise he
knew of none. Senato. Gorman's few
remarks on the subject covered the case
fully. Hesaid: "1 am not the mouth
piece of the President. His patronage
1 know nothing of or care nothing for.
I neither have it nor want it. No Presi
dent has ever Im cu so careful to avoid
the appearance of distributing patronage
for his own ends. He has scarcely done
his party justice."
Kveryliody has heard of that frequent
ly mentioned article 'Senatorial cour
tesy" , but with all due re.-pec t to the
eminent and dignified gentlemen who
compose the U. S. Senate it must be said
that "Senatorial discouttesy'' more tiu
lv applies to the numerous "lils" l.'
t wee ii Senators which have la-en slich a
feature of the debate this week. Space
forbids their enumeration, but one spec
imen will give a general idea .f ;tit of
them. Senator Wolcott referred to Sen
ators Goinian and Aldiich as stecrers of
the Senators who favor the Vorhet s re
peal bill, and told of their hav ing decid
eit to tieg.ii next Week holding twelve
hour Sessions of the senate. Senator
Gorman in reply said: This is the
first lime that I have ever known a sen
ator or his agents to listen at the com
mittee room d'H-rs to tell the s.-nato of
the private conference of senators on
any subject whatever,"
The ultimate fate of the Vorhees bill
is still very much in doubt. Cloture is
a two edged weapon, and althoiin its
present adoption wouid be of great bene
fit to the 1 icinocratic party it is not prob
able that Senator 1 laU's rc-olutioii will
even lie reported back from the commit
tee on Kules. lo which it was referred,
and without clofuie there is small prob
ability that the bill will ever ! voted
upon without the consent of its oppo
nents. Can thai ton.-ent Ik- obtained;
That is a .i:e.-tion lh.it only the future
can answer, but senators havccni, faience
tiiat it will le obtained through a move
ment now on loot among IVmo
cratic senators w ho favor the hill. This
movement conn mpl.ttes gi iting the con
sent of the opponents of the bill to the
taking of a vote in exchange for the
promise of enough von s to make the
passage of a silver bill, something on
the order of Senator Fau!kn rs proposed
amendment to tlie orhees bill, a cer
tainty immediately after the Yorhee
bill is passed. The House lag. in
the debate on the 'flicker hi!!
for the reH id of the Federal election
laws according to programme, and so
far it has been conducted upon Con.-ti-tulioiial
grounds, although it may get
down to part'.mship any hour. Al
though it will not alter or postpone the
nslilt, the order under w hich the I louse
is acting making t Ictolw-r '.'i h t he last i lav
of the debate, the absence of a quorum
of Democrats at times is enough to ag
gravate the party leaders and to justify
the adoption ot a proposition which has
Imcu made, to keep a record of the ab
sent rs and to see that their constituents
are informed through the party papers
in their districts of every day's absence
without leave. This would be trouble
some to the congressmen, but ju.-t to
their eon-titiients.
The House committee on banking
and currency af'er mature- delitx-ration
decided that more information should
he obtained by the committee before it
reported any financial bill to the House.
In accordance with that decision the
committee has given IScprcscntativc
Gates a hearing on his bill for the repeal
of the tax on state ban enrrcnev and
has listened to an argument by lo pre
seutative McLaur in favor of his propo
sition to issue $1 Jo ,1100.0! 10 in green
backs to increase tin' currency in circu
lation. The chairman ( f the commit
tee has lieen requested to obtain as
much information as po -si hie from the
various state governments on the sub
ject fif state banks.
The sensational Ftatemnts concern
ing the nomination of Mr. J. J. Van
Allen to le Ambassador to Italy will
doubtless lie investigated by the senate
committee of foreign relations Ik 'fore his
nomination is acted upon. No one be
lieves that either President Cleveland or
ex Secretary Whitney was a party to
any promi-' made to give Mr. Van Allen
this po.-iti.m hecauscof his having made
a large campaign contribution, and an
investigation will probably show that no
such promise was made by anybody.

Wash ixi. ion, October '2. The Demo- :
ratio members of the wavs and means
committee are making progress with the
tariff bill. The groundwork is under
stood to In fne raw materials, with imn-(H-nsatory
reductions in other directions.
Chairman Wiisoti is said to lie puzzled
over the demand by many Ieniociats in
his state for therelcntionof the coal and
iron duties, hut he looks to other sched
ules where reductions will more than
make up any loss, real or anticipated.
As an in.-tance of coniiensatory reduc
tion several staphs in Michigan art' ci
ted. Here are largely produced iron,
copper, salt and lumber. There is also
talk that, in making reductions, suffi
cient duty w ill be levied to ield a reve
nue on the increased importations af
fording more money than the present
taiiff. I5ur the increase of the free li-t
will off.- t 'this increase in the duties bv !

The customs revenues, with the pres
ent internal revenue las. will not.

ex-H' lit. ires, even if the sinking fund

impii.-s.-ion that the deficit will U- met

Tiasmm OLIVER CHILLED PLOWS
MADE ONLY BY THC
Oliver Chilled Plow Works,
South Bend, Indiana,
ARE THE BEST GENERAL PURPOSE PLOWS IN THE WORLD.
A strong statement but a true one, for these plows are better
known, have reached a larger sale, have had a longer run, have proved
more popular and given better satisfaction than any other plows on
the face of the globe. .... , .
We mean the GENUINE OLIVER, and not the imitations claim
ing to be the Oliver, or equally as good. Such imitations are on the
market, placed there by unscrupulous manufacturers who seek to trade
on the good name of the Oliver.
Look out for imitations, buy oniy the genuine Oliver plows and
repairs, and be sure you are right before you take the plow home.
ioTOnce more Beware of "bogus" Oliver plows and repairs, and
take none but the genuine, made by the Oliver Chilled Plow Works,
South Bend, Indiana.
