REITBLICAS COMMITTEE MEETINd.
The members of Ibe Republican
County Committee of Forest County
re requested to meet at the Court
House, in TioneMa, on Monday eve
ning, August 28, 1893, court week, at
7:30 o'clock, for the transaction of
important business to the party. It
is hoped there will be a full turnout.
James I. Woods, Chairman.
How can it be possible to hold that
the positiou of silver in the financial
system cf the country is responsible
for the distress when it is remembered
that to-day a silver dollar will buy
just as much as a gold dollar?
Just when the country was con
gratulating itsel f upon having escap
ed a visitation of cholera, news comes
from New York that a steamer has
arrived at that port with a passenger
Buffering from cholera symptons. It
is hoped, however, that the progress
of the scourge will be stayed at the
quarantine station.
Cleveland could have started the
hum in a thousand mills and work
shops, made times easier inside of
forty-eight hours, if, instead of a two
column message he had employed on
ly a dozen words and said, "there
will be no tariff tinkering while I am
President," and told Congress to go
home and mind its business.
Does President Cleveland imagine,
with every industry in the country
kept in a state of fear until his party
decides what the revenue tariff shall
be, that the passage of any silver bill
to retrench or to expand coinage
will restore confidence to tbe country ?
We do not so read the signs of the
times, and shall be very agreeably
disappointed if such proves to be the
case. s
State Treasurer Morrison has
given his friends to understand that
he will enter the list for Auditor Gen
eral when the proper time comes, and
the press of the State has given bis
boom a cordial send-off. Captain
Morrison has proved a mo6t faithful
and competent official. Giles D.
Price of Erie, and ex-Senator Mylin,
of Lancaster, will also be candidates.
Harrisburg Telegraph.
Times like these demand mutual
accommodation. Mauy a firm which
for more than a generation bus met
every obligation finds itself forced to
pay its men in checks, in promises,
or in some time accommodation.
Fortunately the banks make every
effort to meet demands which do not
involve the payment of money, and
storekeepers generally, if they are
wise, will take checks for money in
the present situation. Phila. lre.
Charles Chauncey Binney is
one of the bolier-thau-tbou Demo
cratratio reformers iu Philadelphia
who prepared a letter to Cleveland
after the election last fall commend
ing the President for the Bummary
manner in which he wub turning
do wn office seekers in his determina
tion "to give uninterrupted consider
ation of momentous questions of vi
tal importance to the welfare of our
country." Mr. BiDtiey has just been
appoiuted an Assistant Uuited States
Attorney General, and tbe other fel
lows who signed the letter are won
dering why they were such chumps.
Tue promiscuous lopping off' of
pensions by the present administra
tion will not have a tendency to relieve
tbe fiuancial depreesinn. There can
be no very serious mistake made in
granting pensions to the soldiers of
the late war. Nearly all of them are
nearing the Western rim of life's ho
rizon. Another decade will see but
a remnant of that gallaut host of
vigorous young men who fought for
tbeir country and conscious, not for
conquest or the spoils of war. Their
last days deserve not to be made
gloomy by tbe clouds of doubt and
disrespect. It was Napoleou who
said that governments ought to be
extravagant when times are hard,
and ecouoruical when times are good.
Punxsutawney Spirit.
Tin President's Message,
President Cleveland's message is in
hearty accord with the predominant
sentiment of the East on the silver
question. Its argument is simple,
and ought to be understood by every
body. He makes it quite clear that
be is against silver money, while
he frankly confesses that the Republi
can party is not resposible for the
Sherman act. So far, so good. But
when he ascribes the business troubles
of this summer to the silver purchas
ing act ho makes a great mistake.
It was not the loss of the government
in its silver purchases; it was not the
encrochment upon the $100,000,000
gold reserve, but the fear of adverse
tariff legislation that produced dis
trust of the future.
The silver law has been in operation
for three years, and the last of those
three years were among tbe most
prosperous this country has known.
Every mill and shop and factory in
the country was busy. In our own
city of Harrisburg not an idle man
was to be found, who was willing to
work. It is impossible, therefore,
that silver is wholly to blame for our
present condition. It may bave ag
gravated it, but it was not the prime
reason. So, therefore, when Presi
dent Cleveland blames tho fiuancial
depression solely upon the purchase
of silver he shuts his eyes to a condi
tion known to exist by every business
man in the country.
His message contains a threat to
the country of future Anti-Americau
tariff legislation that will largely
counterbalance the good his position
on silver may secure. It biuls, too,
at a great advauce from bis letter of
acceptance. If be couceives tariff
reform of such importance as to jus
tify the calling of an extra session he
must mean to accept tbe ultra Demo
cratic doctrine tbat a tariff can be
imposed for revenue only, and tbat a
protective tariff, incidental or other
wise, is unconstitutional. With the
issue so made up the prospect of an
early ajustment of tbe financial situa
tion, and a revival of manufacturing
and industrial enterprises is not
promising. Tbe country is therefore
ia very little better condition to-day
than before tho message appeared.

What The Farmer Has Lost.
The figures of the New York Pro
duce Exchange shows tbat the far
mers lose (8232,000,000) Two hun
dred and Thirty-two Millions of Mon
ey at this year's prices on their wheat
and corn. This must be comforting
to the farmers who wanted a change
and voted for Cleveland and $1.25
wheat. Last year's prices were not
high enough to satisfy them. They
voted for something better, and they
have gotten it with a veugence.
Compare the figures:
Export barley iu June, 1892, aver
aged 55.13 cents a bushel; in June
this year it averaged 47.45 cents.
Corn which averaged last June 55. G6
cents a bushel, in June this year
brought 47.95 cents. Rye shrunk in
a year from 86.47 cents per bushel to
60 91 cents. Wheat fell in the past
year from 91.57 ceuts to 79.93 cents.
Everything tbat the farmer has to
sell, except oats aod oatmeal has fall
en from 13 to 25 per cent.
Is there any doubt that the farmers
have lost this amount. Compare the
prices under Clevelaud with tbe
prices under Harrison, aud the farm
er is too dumb to be saved who cannot
see where the loss of two hundred aud
thirty-two millions of dolllars occur
red. The platform of the Ohio Demo
cracy, while avowedly and intensely
partisan, is broad enough for all pa
triotic citizens to fctand on; aud its
expressions of confidence in a Demo
cratic President and a Democratic
Congress will find an echo wherever
good government is prized. Philadel
phia Jieeord.
It is just this sort of balderash that
makes the average reader doubt the
sanity of the editor. Just imagine a
partisan Democratic platform having
just at this time auy attractions for
the patriotic citizen ; aud it is the
lack of confidence in a Democratic
President and a Democratic Congress
tbat is tumbling tbe business of the
country into a heap of ruins. Mc
Kinley will scotch tbe Ohio snake
this fall in a style tbat will settle the
question of "confidence" for years to
come. Uarrirburg Telegraph.
The poor veteran soldier is catch
ing it all around. Hoke Smith wants
affidavits about the character of tbe
pensioner's wituesses, aud the nation
al banks lefuse to cash their checks.
Wonder if there would be any Na
tional banks if these brave pension
ers hadn't "fought, bled and died"
for their country's cause I Warren
Mail.
The farmers of Ohio, who are get
ting sixteen cents for their wool, will
be ready to vote for MeKinley long
before the snow flies. They have had
a plenty of cheap wool.
"Ho who dallies is a rinxtard,
Ho who domts Is damned,"
says Henry Watterson, in urging im
mediate action of tbe Democratic
party to impose free trade upon the
country. Well, the probabilities are
that if the elements in the Democrat
ic party, of which Mr. Watterson is
the representative, have thoir way,
there is little doubt about the damna
tion that will come upon tbeir party.
