The treasury officials are congratulating themselves that the close of the fiscal year on June 30 will show a deficit ot not mar than $44,000,000. If It hadn't bean for the Wilson bill there would have been no deficit at all. The Democratic congress dellberaUjIy proceeded to create a deficit, and are now felicitating them' elves that it Is not as much as they ex pected. The Democratic way of answer ing this is that the: deficit commenced while the (Republican, tariff was In opera tion. Yes, of course. Importations ceas ed or were restricted to the smallest quantities possible Just so soon as the Democratlo party came into power with its threat of free trade tariff or of a gen eral and sweeping reduction of duties. Nobody was going to run the risk of im porting a lot of merchandise under a high scale of duties when he didn't know how soon the duties would be so reduced ot wiped away entirely as to entail a loss on the Importers. The dtfflclt was a Dem ocratic contrivance entirely. Altgeld says the decision of the su preme court on the income tax exempts tha rich from taxation. What nonsense! Bays the Pioneer Press, a very small fraction of the taxes In these United States are those collected to defray the expenses of the federal government. The bulk of the taxs are those raised by states, cities, counties and towns to de fray the cost of our complicated system of local government Including roads, bridges, pavements, sidewalks, schools, courts and a multitude of other things. There is no limit to the taxing power ot the states or to the power of taxation they can confer on municipalities. The federal government Is confined to a nar row sphere, which touches the life of the people at but a few points. It is right and proper that its taxing powers should be limited, while those of the states are plenary and practically with out limit. Tht rapli growth of the Epworth League would be remarkable were it not that the Methodist Church Is good soil in which to plant an ideai that promises to develop well in the Interests of church growth or religious advance. At the end of its first year or existence the league had an estimated enrollment of 1,810 chapters. By the end of the second year the number was 5,602. For the third year the figures were 8,102; for the fourth year, 10,200, and last year, the fifth, the total was 1S.6M. At the present time the total Is 14,70 senior chapters and 3.093 junior chapters. In addition to these the Meth odist Church South has 1,375 senior and 75 junior chapters. The League has much strength tn Canada also. A bill now under consideration In the British parliament, with some show of passage, makes it a pemttl offense to dis seminate by print or by word of mouth gainst a candidate for public office. The penalty prescribed is a fine of 300 oi loss of suffrage for five years. To be amenable to the law It is not necessary that the accused should originate tht lander or that he believed it true. Having circulated the story the burden ot proof is on him that he took pains to satisfy himself as to the truth of the al legation and found good reason for be lieving it. If there were such a law In this country many editors would be minus either dollars or votes; There is the usual t trade from the dis appointed supporters of the law declared unconstitutional against the judges who declared the income tax Illegal. Repu table newspapers, or newspapers with any claims to the confidence of the public, ought to be aware of the danger of weaK enlng without cause the respect of the people, wtMout regard to party, for the supreme court of the United States. Thfi-t tribunal s about the only depart ment of the government that has thus far escaped being held up to public contempt It will be a sorry day for the country wbon that honored and learned body be comes the football of parties and the taiet for sensation mongers. The last issue of the Weekly Sentinel, published In Pittsburg, Columbia county, contains the announcement that on that data the 8entlnel and Nehalera Journal were consolidated and hereafter will be publUhed only the Sentinel, under the clltorehlp of Mr. It H. Mitchell, the for nix editor of tho Journal. We trust that th Sentinel may have a prosperous ex- iKf.prxe. 1"- , o' lTips wases for laboring men In v i, according to a correspondent ,f ii i ! i. Mffo Tribune writing from the u-vlont to fmrn IVi tn Sf pent i - Rt.i this is In silver worth half t H ti nut by those figures In the United Sates. That is the condition to which five and unlimited coinage has re duced or at least kept the laboring classes of Mexico. At the same time it costs more to live in. Mexico than in the United States. That Is the condition to free silver would do for the laboring c'.asses of the United States-reduce their wiges and Increase the cost of living. Hereafter It will be necessary to have a.l church .notices of fiundiy s:rvlce fl.t 1 la this ofilce by 2 o'clock Friday afternoon In order to get them in Satur day's bsue of the paper. It has been found necessary to establish this rule, b.caus of the crowded condition of the coiumr.s in the last part of the week, and it will also be necessary to enforce it. We know that those having the church announcements In charge will hi only loo glad to co-optrate In this rei-.jjr.able request. Blneo the 1st of January, according to statistics collected by the "Railroad Ga zette," the railroads have placed with the manufactories orders for 22,000 cars, rep resenting a cost of $10,000,000. Less than 17,000 cars were ordered throughout 1894. Bids are out for 3,000 cars, besides the 22,000 under order, and it looks now as If the demand for 1896 may be double that of 1591. A statement has been prepared at the bureiu of Immigration which shows the number of immigrants which arrived in the United States for the nine months emdlng March 31, In each of the last years to have been as follows: 1893, 259,460; 1894, 213.W8; 1895, 140,980. The amount of money brought In by immigrants during the past nine months was $2,395,846. SENATOR SHERMAN. The Old Veteran's Speech at the Ohio Convention. The primary and fundamental sentiment of the republican party is love for our country, our whole country. We are for the Union, one and Indivisible, now and forever. The republicans of Ohio are not provincial, but .national: this is our comer-stone, planted In the first re publican convention In Ohio in 1806. Ws stood by it in the storms of war, when Lincoln was our standard bearer. Our soldiers fought under it, under Grant, Sherman and Sheridan. The soldiers of Ohio carried our flag In every great bat tle of the war for the preservation of the Union. Other patriotic citizens and soldiers were equally deserving of honor and praise, but they could not carry their party with them. When Grant was in the wilderness and Sherman was before At lanta, a great party declared the war was a failure. Ours made It a success. When the war was over we did not trial our enemies as conquered subjects, but aS erring brethren. We Invited them back Into the- Union with unabridged powers, prescribing only one condition, that there should be no slaves In our country. We now meet them and greet them as friends, and, turning our back on dead issues, we congratulate them on their prosperity, which they did not and could not have In their condition prior to the war. When the war was over the republican party developed Its civil policy. First of all, it dwclared Its purpose to pay every debt or obligation contracted during or since the war, and that the public faith should be unblemished. This promise has been performed. In spite of all tempta tion and the shrieks of populists, we have discharged every obligation contracted during the war, and especially the high est and most sacred debt to the surviving soldiers of the war, their widows and orphans. The pension roll Is a roll ot honor, higher In amount than any pension roll ever before provided by any nation. While the republican party Is In power it will only be diminished by the death of pensioners, a fate that awaits us all. We are In favor of a protective tarinr. We had such a tariff. While it was in force we had prosperity, good times and money plenty. We had so diversified our domestic Industries that American labor and American capital supplied nearly all the wants of the American people. We prefer to tux foreign' productions rther than our own. We believe that the pol icy of protection should be extended to all productions Impartially; to lanor on the farm as well as In the workshop. We are opposed to the democratic policy of protecting woolen manufacturers and admitting wool free or duty, we ao nounce a scheme of taxation which an nually Increases the public debt more than $50,000,000. This Is the result of democratic as- cendency. The tariff law of the last congress Is partly a copy of the McKln- ley law, and generally a failure. All that Is good of It was taken from the Mc Klnley tariff and the rest of it is confess edly a hotchpotch. The supreme court has already disposed of part of It. All the productions of the south, from pea nuts to whiskey, are carefully protected, while the duties on the great staple in dustries of the north are largely re duced and on some artlcUs entirely re pealed. Wo demand a reform in the tariff; not to promote sectional inter ests, but to secure ample revenue and Impartial protection to domestlo Indus- tries. This we can have only by tne election of a republican president. We want a change, and for this change ws will have the hearty support of a large portion of the democratic party. We are in favor of a sound national currency, always redeemable In coin. All forms of money should be of equal pur chasing power. For fourteen years after resumption of specie payments, while the republican party was In power we had such a currency. We had gold, silver and paper money, all bearing the stamp and sanction of the United States, or unquestioned credit and of equal value. passing current, not only wltn tne unitea Statea but in all parts of the commer cial world. Both trold and silver are Indispensable for use In the varied wants of mankind. Gold Is now and has been for ages the chief measure of value In international commerce and the larger transactions of domestic exchanges. Silver, from its bulk and weight. Is not available for large pay ments either at home or abroad, but It la Indispensable in the minor wants of mankind. Gold, from Its greatly superior value, cannot be utilised for such pur poses. Therefore it is that both metals have been coined into money at a fixed ratio. The enormous increase of the pro duction of silver in the United States, Mexico and Australia has disturbed this ratio, and has lowered the market value of silver precisely as a like Increase of production has lowered tile price ot other commodities. It is a universal law that price or value Is measured by quan tity. L'mlor these conditions the rational and proper course would be a change of ratio, but this ou only be effective as to these two metals by concert of action among commercial nations. Until this can be accomplished the only lotclol way is for each nation to coin both metals and maintain the coinage ot the cheaper metal at par by limitation of amount, and redemption when in excess of the demand for it. Such is now the policy of the United States, and of every great commercial nation-, including every country In Kurop. Other nations adopt the silver standard alone, not from choice, but from poverty. I believe that the policy of the United States adopted In IMd of coining fractional silver coins In limited quantities from silver bullion purchased at market price and making thorn a SczJ tender far small sums Is the only way to preserve the parity ot gold and silver coins at a fixed ratio. This Is properly called bimetallic money. I hops and believe that the common inter ests of commercial nations will lead them, through an International commis sion, to either adopt a new ratio based on market value of the metals or to coin Them and maintain them as we do at their present ratio. The policy now urged by the producers of silver, and by men who wish to pay their debts In cheaper money than they promised to pay. Is the free coinage of silver. This means the single standard of silver and the demonetization of gold. This Is the monometallic system. It Is the degredatlon of our dollar to fifty cents. If applied to our national bonds it Is a repudiation of one-half of the public debt. It Is the repudiation of one-half of all debts. It confers no favor on pro ducers of any kind, whether of the farm, the workshop or the mine, for if they got nominally more dollars for their pro ductions, their additional dollars would have only one-half the purchasing powers of the gold dollar. The great hardship of this policy would fall upon working men, skilled or unskilled, whose dally wage measured by the present standard Is higher than in any country in the world. Their wages will purchase more of the necessaries of life than the wages paid for similar labor anywhere outside of the United States. It Is a false pre tence that the cheapening of money will be beneficial to them. The republican party In Its national platform of 1892 demanded good money of equal purchasing power, whether coined of Bllver or gold, or composed of United States notes and national bank notes, based upon the credit of the United States, maintained at par with coin. This Is the bimetallic policy. There we stand today. I hope and trust we will stand there forever. We will seek the co-operation of all nations in main taining the parity of gold and silver coined. If they will not co-operate with us in this policy, the republican party can and, I hope, will do it alone. Good money and plenty of it is as important to all our people as equality of rights and privileges. Let us then with a firm reliance upon the principles, poflcy and wisdom of th graat party to which we belong, nomin ate our candidate and declare our plat form, and then make our appeal to the Intelligence of the people of Ohio. In all the great Issues made in the last forty years the republicun party of Ohio has had the courage to propose and to do what Is right. Let us follow in the same pathway, and we will not only select a republican governor and state officers, but also another republican senator and, 1 hope, a president of the United States from the state of Ohio. .
