"Four, four, four years more."
If Grover Cleveland is to be dis
abled by gout be may have bis pen
sion cut off, too. But pet haps he
doesn't get a pension.
The old soldier gettiug a pension
under the dependent act will learn
with pleasure that bis peusion has
been stopped for sixty days while the
rebel brgadier inquires into his case.
Cholera in France, Russia, Hun

They say that Thomas B. Reed is
heartier than ever, and that he will
take bis old voice and his bat full of
brains into Congress when the extra
session meets. With Reed on the
floor there will be a general disposi
tion to keep quiet on the part of the
Democratic leaders. How they do
hate Reed and fear him.
In Judge of the current week is t
cartoon representing Uncle Sam rue
fully surveying the ruius of broken
banks and closed industrial establish
mcnts with thousands of men out of
work, while Judge asks: "You want
ed a change how do you like it as
lar as you nave cone 7 it is a car
toon that hits the nail on the bead.
The uncertainty concerning what
Congress will do with the financial
question has led New York importers
to inform their customers that here
after only gold will be taken in pay
ment. It may put some of the buy
ers to a great deal of trouble to get
gold, but this is one of the misfor
tunes of a Democratic administration.
Sunday was the last on which the
World's Fair gates will be open, the
management having discovered that
it don't pay to run counter to the
ideas of the American people when it
comes to the desecration of the Chris-
tain Sabbath. The scheme was not
only demoralizing in all respects, but
was resulting in heavy financial loss
on week days as well as Sundays.
Hence the complete revocation of
former icsolutionav
Governor Altgeld, of Illinois,
has ordered the defeat of Judge
Gary, who tried and seutenced the
Anarchists released by Altgeld. As
Judge Gary is a Republican, and will
be renominated by his party this fall,
Altgeld has more cheek than falls to
the average man to preeumo to inter
fere. The Republicans of Chicago
and thousands of Democrats will re
elect Judge Gary and rebuke' the
friend of murderers and thugs. Alt-
gold is a disgrace to civilization.
"Don't say anything about the tar
iff1," is the cry of certain free trade
newspapers, adding, "let us put all
the blame on silver." But the tariff
will not down. We had the silver
question a year ago, and have had it
for three years, and yet the country
until recently was prosperous to a
high degree. Now we have got the
tariff question, and there is all the
difference in the world. Mills are
closing up, 10,000 roeu hava been
thrown out of employment in the
northwestern iron mines, lake vessels
are tying up, and disaster is every
where. Silver has something to do
with it, but the spectre of free trade
a hundred times more.
Where is that business confidence
that was to be braced up by the elec
tion of Cleveland and the success of
the Democratic party? If it is to
come, it had better get here pretty
quick. Manufacturing establish
ments aod furnaces, steel and iron
works and other lines of industry are
closing down all over the country,
and thousands of men find themselves
on the cold world without work. A
week ago 10,000 men were put out of
work in Iudiaoapolis by ten indus
trial establishments closing their
doors. In the Lebanon Valley a
number of furnaces have been blown
out, and that they will remain idle
for some time is evidenced by the fact
that the entrances have been hoarded
up.
A day or two ago a dispatch from
Troy, N. Y., announced that work
had ceased at the works of the Troy
steel and iron company, and five Hun
dred men would have to look else
where for employment. For the first
time in its history the Glendon iron
company at Eastori has been forced
by ttie depression in the iron trade to
completely shot down and one hun
dred and seveuty men out of work.
These are a few samples of the
bracing up of business confidence we
were to have under the new Demo
cratic dispensation. It is not a pleas
aut picture to look at, but facts are
facts and this country will have to face
them. Nobody pretends to guess
when it will end, but for the good of
the country we hope it will end soon.
The trouble begau just as eooii as a
Democrrlic President and Congress
were elected.
That Colorado silver convention
simply wants to wade in gore. The
Populist Governor Waite, who should
of all men keep cool in a crisis, made
a speech in which he threatened that
blood would "flow to the horses' bri
dies rather thau our national liberties
be destroyed," classing as one of our
"national liberties" the free coinage
of silver. The incendiary utterances
of such blatherskites will not do
much to help the s'lvcr cause
Rather they will show the conserva
live people of the country what i
dangerous element they have to deal
with and prepare them for the conflict
which the silver men seem intent up
on forcing upon the couutry. What
is wanted among the silver men is
cool-headed men who can lead.
It isn't lack of money in this coun
try. It is lack of confidence in an
administration that started wrong.

Here is the Bounding Daddy of
the Silver Dollar, Congressman
Bland, calling on the silver men to
fight fur their rights, and declaring
that the Democrats of the West and
South have been buncoed by the
Democrats of the East. It is going
to be a fine old family fight, aod the
Republicans will enjoy the wake that
follows.
Two of the scoundrels, Gallagher
aod Davidson, who confessed to pois
oning workmen at Homestead, now
confess that tbeir former confession,
by which Dempsey and Beatty were
convicted, was a lie. One statement
or the other is a lie, beyond question.
The present confession is not more
improbable than the other one, but
neither seems entitled to implicit confidence.
The agent of a cotton mill in Lew
iston, Maine, who hasikept in touch
with matters, says that before Octo
ber next every mill in Lewiston will
be compelled to close owing to the
uncertainty regarding tariff matters,
and that thousauds of men will be
throwo out of employment. Why,
this was the very warning souu'ied by
the Republican party during the last
campaign, and it was sneered at by
the Democrats who dubbed it the old
cry of "Wolf." The time will come,
and it is not so very far ahead, when
the American workiogman will find
to his sorrow that the Democratic
party is bis woisl enemy. Democra
cy to bold the West and bouth must
live up to its free trade declarations,
and that means death to American
manufactures.
For the first time in the history of
the trade every plate glass lactory in
the United States is closed and that
indefinitely. And ten thousand men
are idle. It has been the custom to
operate plate glass factories all the
year around, notwithstanding the
usual summer shut down of the other
glass industries. The free trader
may ascribe this to overproduction,
but the people who look into these
matters will ascribe it to the clumsy
methods of a Democratic administra
tion that simply made a toy of great
financial questions. This is another
object lesson. There will be more in
the future.
From every direction comes there-
port of mills closing up. The Salem
(N. J.) Oilcloth Works, the PbaiDix
Woodeu Mill, of Chester; theCohoes
(N. Y.) Kuitting Company's mill, the
Charles Parker Company, of Meri
den, Coun , employing 1000 hands,
and numerous other manufacturing
establishments have cloBed up, within
the last few days. Lack of orders
due to the uncertainty of prices it the
cause. In other words, the shadow
of free trade is paralyzing tha busi
Dees of the nation. A year ago the
country was in the height of prosper
ity. What has brought about the
change? The election of Grover
Cleveland and the success
Democratic party pledged
trade.

They hung a poor colored devil
down iu Kentucky last week on
charge of murdering two girls, and
they strung him up without trial by
jury, and without giving him any
chance whatever for his life. On
the platform erected for his execution
be made a speech in which he said "I
am an innocent man." It mattered
little what he said. A crime bad
been committed, a man bad been ar
rested, here was the man, the mobde
manded a victim, and the mob wreak
ed its vengeuce. The mau was hanged
the mob of respectable, civilized
white people subjected the corpse to
all manner of barbarity, and then
burned it, and outraged justice was
vindicated. Now comes the sequel
It has beeu discovered that the victim
of the mob, when he said he was in

The father of the two girls says the
nogs never belonged to his daughters
he, himself, doubts the guilt of the
poor victim who narrowly escaped
being burned at the stake, but met
death at the rope's end, and the mob
is uow said to have made a horrible
mistake. Is it not enough to baDg
man without trial by judge or jury
barring out the fact that be is inno
