AN BAST WALK-OVER
It Is evident that free silver Is going to
split the Democratic party all to pieces,
In spite of all the efforts of the adminis
tration to keep It In line. It is a signi
ficant fact that It was only a few days
after President Cleveland addressed his
letter to the business men of Chicago,
In which he made It clear that the busi
ness prosperity of the country depend
ed upon a steadfast adherence to a sound
mony policy, that the announcement was
made that the Democratic party of Illi
nois Is wedded beyond recall to the free
silver lunacy and will declare for It in
Its state convention to be held this month,
The president may foe ever so earnest In
hit desire to save his party from this
mistake; but the Indications are strong
that ths free silver Democrats of the
West and Couth are strong enough to
control Its action In the fall elections,
and that ones more It Is going to per
petrate on of those colossal blunders
which have made Its history a pictur
esque succession of colossal failures. It
Is going to commit Itself to free silver
In the West and South Just In the nick of
" time; Just as the foaming crest of the
Silver wave la ffbout to break and dash
itself to harmless spray on the looming
Shores of an era of rising prices and
growing prosperity. Before the national
Conventions shall assemble in 1S36, the
free silver delusion will have evaporated
In the general absorption of the masses
of. the people In the revived industrial
and business activities. Dut the mis
chief will already have been done. The
Democrat! a party, If it maintains its
national organization at all, will be forc
ed to go Into the presidential campaign
with Its Eastern and Western camps di
vided and at war upon thesnoney issue,
after having forced the money Issue to
ths front as the controlling one In na
tional .polities. The Republican party
has only to maintain an unbroken front
In favor of sound money to have an easy
walk-over In ths next presidential elec
tion. Of course the prominence of Secretary
Carlisle In his sliver tour has st-t the
Democratic gossips talking about him for
a presidential candidate. It Is curious
how quickly people forget, or how ll'.tlc
they reflect upon the record of men when
they propose them for that nomination.
It Is less than six months since "Secre
tary Carlisle was making himself the
laughing stock of the country on the
currency question, sending one bill to
congress today and withdrawing It and
sending another tomorrow, and all to get
turned down by his own party Just as
fast as the roll could be called on them.
And now they are talking about him
for the presidential nomination. There
Is perhaps, one important feature that
he -would supply as a presidential can
didate Just now, and that is that every
body could And something in his record
with which he could agree; for he has
been on all sides of the great flnanclul
questions whlcb are now the important.
Issues of the day. Even the veteran
Democrat, Senator Palmer, of Illinois,
has pranced to the front to suggest Mr.
Carlisle for the presidency, The f ict
that any Democrat Is seriously consid
ering the secretary In that connection,
shows the desperate straits of the party
for a leader.
It has generally been supposed that
"hard mes" leads to hard drinking, but
the British statistics do not bear out
the supposition very logically. Thus, In
1890, ths amount expended for consump
tion Of. liquors per capita was about
M18.W, while In 1SH the sum per capita
had fallen to 1117.75. On the other hand,
the figures for the decade show that
while drinking has decreased to some
extent since the "flush" year of IS),
the general tendency during the past ten
years has been to spend more for liquor;
as In 18 the per capita expenditures
was but 116.X ; so that In spite of the
hard times the drinking Is greater than
It was ten years ago. In the United
States, while with the bard times the con
sumption of some kinds of llqutrs, such
as distilled liquors from fruit, decreased,
the general tendency was In the direction
of increased drinking, so that not only
da the figures of 18 show largely In
creased consumption over tea figures of
imi, but the per capita consumption Is
also larger than It was In lstt.

A Business Man's View of the Unlimited
Coinage or silver.
Af;nta Jourr.al (Secretary Hoke
S.rlth's paper): The following letter has
been received In Atlanta from the heaJ
of the greatest dry goods house In the
world: , .
,'(,w york, May 15. The panic of 1S93
was c.uiecdi by the lour inai me suver
nnrnhiM of the United States were
about to bring the country to a silver
banls. This fear led primarily to ab
normal gold exports and to hoarding of
gold. As gold disappeared the panla
grew. When the panic became general
all kinds of money were noarueu iim
out much discrimination, because many
persons feared that (ill flnanolal Institu
tions might be ruined, and In unreason
ing a'.arm they thought that any kind of
money would bo sifer than a bank ac
count. When the bill repealing the silver
purchasing clause of the Sherman act
parsed the house "of representatives by
a vote so overwhelming that It seemed
certain that the bill would ultimately be
come a law the panic subsided. The very
day after the vote In the house of repre
sentatives the situation chunged radical,
iy. For the first time in four months
money was offered to merchants, and
tho acute phase of the panic was at
an end.
Depression, .however, continued while
the senate debated the -bill, but signs of
recuperation were not wanting, and a
distinct Improvement began when the
renato concurred with the house in the
repeal of the silver purchasing clause.
The improvement was stopped by ths
government program for radical
changes In the tariff. Every merchant
knows the discouragements and lossos of
the last two years of uncertain and full
ing prices.
Now we have reached the bottom;
we have ifelt the effect of the tarlfT;
prices which have been abnormally low
are beginning to Improve and the out
look for business Is encouraging.
Shall we invite a fresh panic by con
sidering free silver coinage in the
United States without the concurrence of
other nations?
Nothing can be more certain, than that
free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16
to 1 by the United States alone would re
sult In a scramble for gold. This would
cause an Immediate contraction of loans
and a general financial panic would In
evitably ensue, business would then be
paralysed once more, and another sea
son of calamity would be upon us.
British, German, French, Holland and
Belgium investors in American coin and
currency bonds, where payment In gold
was not specified on the face of the bond,
would rush them Jnto Wall street to b
sold for gold before the free silver
slump to 00 per cent money went Into
effect, and this would powerfully h:lp
to sweep away the last gold piece In
the United Btutea.
Those Who wish to see better prices for
all commodities must remember that ths
consuming power of the people depends
on the lr earnings. The depression which
always follows a panic throws many per
sons out of employment, and for a long
time after the panic many remain unem
plyed. Wo are now slowly recovering
from the panic of 1KOI; every month the
consuming power of the people Increases,
Let this consuming power steadily grow
and It will soon catch up with any tem
porary excess of the world's supply of
commodities and thus surely and safely
produce hlntier prices. Check this con
suming power by a panic and a vast In
crease. In the number of the unemployed
will depress prices more than the free
coinage of sliver can raise them.
Free coinage of silver by tho concur
rent action of the great nations would,
we believe, be of decided advantage to
the world. Sine the United Slates has
ceased to take care of a large proportion
of the world's sliver that Is, within a
year and a half, bimetallic sentiment In
France and Germany has Increased more
than a decade before, and the silver ques
tion In those countries now commands the
attention of their foremost statesmen.
Let tho good work go on; let the Ku
ropean nations struggle with the silver
question without relie-f from the United
State's, and .the prospect of en Interna
tional agret'ment will rapidly Improve.
Hut If the United States tries to solve
the sliver iiueatloii alone she will at
once relieve other nations of a pressing
problem which they now see can be safe
ly met only by concurrent action of the
commercial powers.
Free coinage of sliver at the ratio of l
to 1 by the United State's alone would In
vite, panic, calamity ami disorder. It
would put this country onto a monometal
lic silver basis, and by driving gold out
of use would abruptly nd dangerously
contract the volume of our currency.
We write this In view of the announce
ment by the press that a monetary con
vention will be held In Memphis toward
the end of May. If you should be pres
ent at the convention we hope you will
oppose any experiment which will be
likely to plunge us Into commercial dis
aster and distress even greater than that
from which we are now emerging.

Many of the shrewdest observers among
administration oltK'lals now de'clare there
are signs that the silver boom Is about to
burst. Reports received from the south
especially show that the erase Is dying
out. The general belief among adminis
tration leaders Is that the mania will
spend Its force before congress meets,
and will be In the background before the
meeting of the national conventions next
year. Ite-ports from Kentucky Indlcats
that Senator Joe Ulackburn made ths
mlstuke of his life by committing him.
self to free coinage so early in the day.
It Is raid the Impetuous Senator has ot
late found the ground slipping from under
his feet, and the Judications are that
Governor Hrcwn will come out on top In
the senatorial race. The Louisville con
vention ut the end of the month Is ex
pected by the administration to do much
toward putting Kentucky Into the sound
money camp, which, of course', means
ths discomfiture of HlackUurn and hit
cheap money allies. Much the same re
ports are received from Virginia ana
North Carolina, though further south
the silver men still hav things aUthelr
own way. Ex-Kopresenlatlve John O.
Pendleton of West Virginia Is nrmly con.
vlnctd the silver crate In the middle
southern states Is on the wane. He says:
"I think Orover Cleveland, handicapped

nominate."

The objections urged against Indio
In the past by the large numbers who
otherwise would have been glad to tak
advantage of Its beneficial climate, has
been a lack of suitable accommoda
tion. The Southern Pacific Company,
takes pleasure In announcing that sev
eral Commodious and
Comfortable Cottages
have Just been erected at Indio sta
tion, that will be rented to applicants
at reasonable rates. Tr.ey are iur
nlthed with modern conveniences, sup
plied with pure artesian water, and so
situated as to gove occupants all the
advantages to be derived from a more
or less protracted residence In this de
llghtful climate.
(From the San Francisco Argonaut.)
"In the heart of the great desert of
the Colorado which the Southern Pa
cilio road traverses there is an oasis
called Indio, which, In our opinion, h
the sanitarium of the earth. We be
lieve, from personal Investigation, that
for certain invalids, the-e Is no spot 01
this planet so favorable."
G. T. Stewart, M. D writes: "The
purity of the air, and the eternal sun
shine, fill one with wonder and delight
Nature has accomplished sc
much that there remnlns but little for
man to do. As to its possibilities as a
health' resort, here Is the most per
feet sunshine, with a temperature al-
..loo .ant a rwrfpptlv (I TV soil
for rain is an unknown factor; pure
oxygen, aense mmewiHiere puic
water. What more can be desiredT
It is the place, above all others, for
lung troubles, and a paradise for rheu
matics. Considering the number of
sufferers wio have been cured, I have
no hesitancy In recommending this
genial oasis as the haven of the afflict
ed." INDIO
