Business Prospects.
The condition of trade at present Is
most encouraging. Business was not
particularly lively during the past
week but general conditions ' have
greatly improved, ana the situation
justifies the expectation of nn expand
ing trade movement In the near future.
Mercantile operations have been em
barasscd by the continued financial dis
trust and the stringency of the loan
markets, but the continued Inflow of
gold from Europe and the growth of
confidence In the ultimate triumph of
the cause of sound money may be ex
pected to afford early relief from the
congestion of credits.
That business sentiment has been
changed for the better by" the recent
Republican victory In Vermont none
can question, and the prospects that an
avalanche will sweep over the country
In favor of sound money and protection
to American Industries In November
haB caused the feeling of anxiety over
the business situation to pass away.
In spite of the tendency to extreme con
servatism tn the making of new obliga
tions and the extension of credits, busi
ness has already shown moderate Im
provement la some directions; and now
that the summer is over and the wants
of the fall trade season are likely to be
come urgent, a gradual expansion of
commercial and Industrial activity may
be anticipated.
With these favorable conditions on
the eve of election the good results of
placing a Republican president in the
chair may-be Imagined, and merchants
generally may prepare for an excellent
fall trade.
Humanity everywhere will rejoice at
the news that prospects ore bright for
a settlement of the Turkish question on
a basts that will put an effectual stop
page on the wholesale slaughter of
Christians In the Ottoman empire. The
action of Russia and Germany looking
to an arrangement that will afford pro
tection for the helpless In Turkey and
Armenia, though tardy, will doubtless
be appreciated. It Is to be hoped that
the readjustment of affairs In the East
will be made with dispatch that will
head, off any future murderous out
breaks on the part of the fanatical fol
lowers of the false prophet
Silk Industry.
The Pittsburg Times calls attention to
the silk industry of Pennsylvania which
has developed wonderfully during the
past few years In an interesting resume
of the development of the Industry. It.
spite of depression that has hung over
Pennsylvania Industry for the last thre
years, the report of the chief of the
bureau of statistics of the state has' a
cheering statement to make concerning
the growth of the silk Industry of the
commonwealth. It Is not 'a good many
years ago that the manufacture of silk
ffOooV In this country was regarded as
a dubious venture. However, bold splr
Its set the pace, and now Pennsylvania
alone produces annually goods worth
nearly 125.000,000. Since 1S90 the bus!
ties has had a wonderful development,
the product Increasing 25 per cent.
To manufacture the large product re
quired nearly 14,000 hands, and to them
was paid $4,000,444 In wages during the
ear closed. When the manufacture o.
Bilk was projected the prediction was ot
tered freely enough that it was one of
the things that could not be dune at a
profit In the United States. The com
petition" of foreign manufacturers was
looked upon as too keen for American
Ingenuity and skill to make any head
way. But like the manufacture of tin
plate, when the American sets out to do
anything he generally gets something
to show for his efforts. And for one
state In one year $23,000,000 worth of silk
goods Is not to be ashamed of.

lien we contemplate the great
amount of debt and credit that Is un
avoidable In a vast but new country like
ours, we naturally shrink from any
measure that will either rob the lender
or do Injustice to the borrower. It Is
impossible to estimate the wrong and
Injustice that will be done to creditors
by the scaling of nearly one-half of
debts due them. The very threat to do
It will lead to the prompt and hard col
lection of debts before- free coinage can
become a law. I am advised that al
ready debts that would have remained
uncalled for have, in fear of such law.
been enforced. It Is certain that before
a free-coinage bill can become a law the
wide distrust caused by the pending of
such a measure will lead to the rapid
collection of debts, the sacrifice of prop
erty, and deepen existing financial dif
ficulties growing out of insufficient rev
enues for the national as well as for
mnny state governments.
"It Is sometimes said of creditors that
they are bloodthirsty Shylocks, aristo
crats, blood-suckers, extortioners. It
may be that there are among money
lenders some men who merit these epi
thets, but the great body of the credi
tors of our country are among the
thrifty, industrious and Intelligent men
and women of every community. One
great body of creditors here Is the 970,
000 Union soldiers, their widows and
orphans, who ore creditors to the United
States to the amount of over $140,000,-
000, a year for services and sacrifices In
the Union army. It would be an act of
perfidy and meanness beyond express
Ion for this great country to pay them
with money of less purchasing power
than gold coin merely because over
production of silver In the United States
has reduced the market value of silver
bullion contained In a silver dollar. To
take advantage "of this decline in order
to reduce the value of the pittance to
these pensioners is worse than to rob
the graves of the dead.
There is another class of creditors
that the free coinage of silver will
greatly Injure. It is the depositors in
savings Institutions and kindred organ
izations, who, according to official sta
tistics, number nearly five million peo
ple, and whose deposits amount to more
than $1,800,000,000. Will you cheat them
by reducing the value and purchasing
power of the dollars they have deposit
ed? Free coinage will also wipe out
nearly one-half the value of life Insur
ance which provident people of the
United States have paid to secure, in
case of their death, some support and
protection to wife and children. It will
nffect Injuriously the multitude of clerks
and employes who depend upon monthly
pay, and will reduce the purchasing
power of all salaries of officers and em-
loyes in the public service of the
United States and .of every state,
county, city or township In this broad
land.
"But by far the greatest injury result
ing from the free coinage of silver will
fall upon the worklngmen. Their wages
re now based upon money of the high
est value, upon gold coin of standard
value. Under free coinage of silver the
value of the sliver dollar will fall to 53
cents in gold, or, as I have already said.
the 100 cents of the gold dollar will be'
worth 194 cents of the silver dollar. With
free coinage of silver every working
man can and ought to demand enough
liver for tils dally wages to be equal
to the purchasing power of his present
wages In gold. The struggle between
the worklngman and the employer will
then commence, and no one knows bet
ter than the worklngman how difficult
It Is to get an advance of pay. We have
strikes and strife enough now, when the
worklngman gets his pay In gold coin or
Its equivalent, but what will be the con
dition If he Is paid In cheaper money of
the same nominal amount, but of less
purchasing power? Every sentiment of
Justice will be on the side of the work
lngman in his struggle for good money
or increased wages In cheap money. Of
all the evils which a government can In
flict, none can be greater than cheap
money, whether of coin or paper. That
dollar Is the best dollar that buys the
largest quantity of food and clothing.
That dollar Is the gold dollar, for It buys
more food and clothing than any other
dollar and will also buy a sliver dollar
for 63 cents, If the coinage of silver is
made free at the ratio of 16 to 1 for gold"
Senator John Sherman.
Both Republicans and Democrats
have given reasons for the great land
slide In Vermont last week that rolled
up 37,000 majority for Joslah Orout, Re
publican candidate for governor; and
a good many diverse opinions have
been" advanced. It has, however,
remained for one of the brightest
y6uhg men of the Associated Press to
definitely settle the question. He tele-
graphs from St. Albans to an exchange
as follows: "The result Is due to
largely increased Republican vote and
at the same time to a marked shortage
of Democratic votes."
"I do sot know what you think
about it, but I believe that it is si
good deal better to open the
mills of the United States to the
labor of America than to open up
the mints of the United States
to the silver of the world."

Is true that Li left $200 to be divided
among thirty or forty of the servants,
but the aristocratic noses of, the Wal

possible that the great LI, like many
American guests, thought that a per
son who pays from seven to ten dollars
a day for hotel accommodations ought
to receive some attention from the
hired employes of the establishment
without being obliged to come down
with an additional fee for every service

It Is a standing disgrace to the hotel
business, especially In New York, that
the guest who pays rates Is obliged to
submit to the blood-letting process
from an army of vampires In order to
receive the attention and service that
he Is supposed to pay for at the clerk's

traveling public in a way that would

doubts as to the danger of placing such
a man In the presidential chair fire of
fectually removed. If trere are any
honest, well-meaning, sound money
Democrats who Imagine that the official
actions of Bryan in case of. election
would be characterized by a spirit of
good sense and conservatism they
should ponder upon some of the "gems
of oratory" uttered by the llrebrand
during the past week. During speech
No. 9., at Springfield, Ohio, Bryan said:
The line Is drawn. If there Is a man In
this country who believes that the gold-
staiulard Is a good tiling, I expect him to
vote ncalnst the Chicago ticket, because
If I am elected the gold standard will
not remuln the standard of this country
one moment longer than I can help to get
rid of It.
Can anyone doubt the meaning con
veyed In the above? Does any sensible
voter believe that William J. Bryan, If
elected president 'of the United States,
would hesitate to wreck the financial
and business Interests of the country In
the Interest of his pet hobby? In speech
No. 98, Bryan continues:
Now. my friends, I stand upon the Chl
caso platform. I do not think there Is any
one in this campaiKn who will doubt that
I, if elected, will carry out that platform.
It seems that It ought not to be neces
sary for Bryan to utter an.ither word In
order to arouse all honest, 'aw-abidln?
citizens, regardless of politics or creed.
against his candidacy. The man who
boldly declares .that he Is for the plat
form that condemns the courts, voices
sentiments of tnarchy, and advocates
systems of reform calculated to wreck
Industry and breed discontent, should
be given a rebuke at the polls that will
forever discourage men of his class who
have ambitions to occupy the office of
chief magistrate of the greatest nation
upon earth.
THE WORKINOMAN'SaSE.
From the Easton Free Press.
In the midst of all the clamor for cheap
money and high prices the worklngman IB
Fklng, as Bourke Cook ran In his magnifi
cent speech puts it, "where do I come In?"
The worklngman has no sliver mines,
neither Is he sufficient of a capitalist to
buy and have silver bullion coined into 53
cent dollars. His only capital is his
brawny arms, his deft lingers or his active
brain. With these he works and toils In
the field of production, and, having earned
his wages, is entitled to be paid In the best
money of the world. He Is entitled to be
paid with a dollar which has a purchasing
power of 100 cents. This is the kind of
dollars which the worklngman has re
ceived In the past, Is getting now. and. If
he has anything to say In the present con
test, he will get In the future, because tho
worklngman is too Intelligent to vote for
any party which advocates the substitu
tion of a 53-cent dollar for a 100-cent dol
lar. . .
. II II II- " '
The free silver advocate nas one argu.
ment for the wage-earner ai.d another en
tirely opposite for the farmer.He tells the
wage-earner that his wages Ulll necessar.

age of silver at U to 1. and tells the farmer
that prices for all products will advance
by the same wonderful magic. What does
It avail the worklngman If his wages are
increased If at the same t'me he Is com
pelled to pay this Increase for the higher
prices of living expenses? If his food.
doming, rent and the hundred other ex
penses that enter Into a man's life are ad
vanced In price where Is the worklngman
benefited? In addition to this he la to be
paid In 53-cent dollars when he has earned
a 100-cent dollar. Moreover. It Is an histor.
leal and economical truth that the work
lngman Is never benefited by cheap money.
Ills wages are the last to Increase by rea
son of the advance of prices and the first
to reel the effect of any decline In price.
Where the worklngman is paid full value
dollars and prices are low, such prices
being Drought down by new invention
and by competition, he is of course pros
perous and Is able to save something for
tne declining years of his life.
II II II
Every worklngman knows or ought to
Know that his wages have never suffered
by reason of the present gold standard cf
money in this country. The free sllverlte
says mat the price of everything. Includ
lng labor, has been depreciated because
gold, he says, has appreciated. Both of
tnese statements are unnunl fledlv fnlse.
Oold has not appreciated, neither havo
wages depreciated. According to the fig.
tires of the finance committee of the
United States Semite, made after careful
investigation of wages and prices, the
man who in 1800 earned 100 cents in gold
a day could. In 1965. when gold payments
were suspended, get only 8.7 cents for the
same labor, while In 1879. after the re
sumption of specie payments, he could a-et
139.4 cents.' and in 1891 he could get lCS.fi
for the same labor. In the thirty-one
years, trom 1880 to 1891, wages measured
in gold Increased over 68 per cent., while
ne cost or gold measured by labor de
creased over -It) per cent., and the otirchas.
lng power of waees Increased over 75 per
cent, me man who In 1WW earned $2 In
gold, could In 1891, by the same labor, earn
!.S7 In gold, und. with that M.37. buv what
In 18) had cost him about $1. What be
comes, in the light of these facts, of the
silver man's assertion that gold has ap-
prcciuieu or mat wages have decreased?
