SHODDY BUILDING.
Another casualty is reported today
from falling walla, this time in Indian
apolis. It is appalling to consider what
would happen in any large city of the
United States if there should be an
earthquake. American structures, al
most without exception, are built with
no regard to this unknown quantity,
and oftentimes they tumble with much
less provocation. It is true that in the
history of the United States, there has
occurred few of those convulsions of
nature, the most notable being at
Charleston ; but 100 or 200 years is a
trifling amount of time to baso a calcu
lation upon concerning probable earth
quake shocks. The shock of 1884, gen
eral over the western half of thecontl
nent, though slight, would have been
sufficient to unsettle the foundations of
many of the towering structures of New
York city. Americans will yet have to
be taught the lesson by direful calamity
such as this to put more strength into
their buildings. An occasional building
will fall from time to time, as it has
done iu the past, but when desolation
and death settles over a whole region of
country, as in France over a century ago,
when 60,000 beings were killed in Lisbon
alone, an impetus will be given to stable
architecture, demanded by public senti
ment, and shoddy building will be a
fashion of the past.

Specimen Cases.
S. H. Clifford, New Cassel, Wis., was
troubled with neuralgia and rheuma
tism, his stomach was disordered, his
liver was affected to an alarming de
gree, appetite fell away, and he was
terribly reduced in flesh and strength.
Three bottles of Electric Bitters cured
him. Edwd Shepherd, Harrisburg, 111.,
had a running sore on his leg of eight
years' standing. Used three bottles of
Electric Bitters and seven boxes of
Bucklen's Arnica Salve, and his leg is
sound and well. John Speaker, Cataw
ba, O., had five large fever sores on his
leg, doctors said he was incurable. One
bottle Electric Bitters and one box
Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured him en
tirely. Sold at Snipes & Kinersly's
drug store.
New York speculators have been try
ing to take advantage of the policy of
the government during the last fifteen
years on the money question by forcing
cold to a premium, in the meantime
accumulating all they can get and driv
ing the residue in the U. S. treasury to
foreicrn shores. Thev believed that the
government, in trying to give temporary
relief, would sell bonds, which would
work to their ends by hastening the in
evitable. The Oregonian says that the
success of these plans has been defeated
for the present by the firm refusal of the
president to allow the sale of bonds, and
by the impossibility of forcing the ex
port of gold fast enough to exhaust the
sub-treasury. The conditions by which
the speculators hope to prosper are not
yet ripe. The effort is certain to be re
sumed, however, after the 4th of March,
Mr. Cleveland believes that it can be
defeated only by repeal of the silver law,
and he will bend all his energies to that
end. Mr. Cleveland is right. It is use
less to rail against the gold speculators
for their selfish plots against the stabil
ity of credit and the order of business.
Success of their plots is only an effect,
of which the mistakes of our financial
policy are the cause, or at least the oc
casion. Given a disordered or unstable
currency and there will be plotters to
increase its disorder; speculators to
make profit of its instability. The only
remedy is to attack the root of the evil
The way to abolish gold speculators is to
make and keep all money equal in ex
change value with gold. This cannot
long be Jdone under a policy which con
stantly increases the volume ot cur
rency worth, in fact, one-third less than
gold, and so current outside of our bor
ders. That will stay at home, while
gold goes abroad to pay foreign debts till
we have only the cheaper money left in
circulation. Then it will be the stand
ard and gold will be merchandise for
speculators.
Sir Henry Meysey Thompson, liberal
unionist member of parliament for
Handsworth, Staffordshire, moved in
the house of commons recently that the
British government should use its in
fluence to bring about a reassembling of
the international monetary conference.
Mr. Gladstone replying, said that it
would place the government in a ridicu
lous position if it should assume the in
itiative in reopening the conference,
having nothing to recommend for dis
cussion. Mr. Gladstone further eaid
that England was not alone among civi
lized nations in her determination to
adhere to her present monetary system
Seven other powers, without the slight
est reference to England, had signified
their intention not to change their cur
rency. . Half of the powers reiwresented
at the conference had shown that they
leaned toward bimetallism, but as yet
they had not given the most shadowy
indication of what change they were pre
pared to make. In conclusion he made
an elaborate exposition of the benefits of
monometalisni and the dangers of bime
talism. Sir Henry Meysey Thompson's
motion was finally rejected by a vote of
229 to 198. The announcement of the
vote was received with, loud liberal
cheers.
