"because there is more money in
circulation. Now this is the
correct thing. Everybody except
the Leader man has admitted this
for the last two and one-half years,
and we're immensely pleased that
after this lapse of time even he, of
doubtful faith, has developed the
idea. But as he goes down the
column he bethiuks himself of a
brilliant star play and attempts to
give a reason for there being more
money in circulation, of course con
fining himself to Cottage Grove.
TT mvs Cottatre Grove is more
prosperous because of activity in
Bohemia mines and the lumber in
dustry, and asserts that there is a
market for everything right at
home, although at no greater in
creased market value. Here he
makes error because everything is
considerable higher than three
years ago. Of course there is a
market for every article of produce
right here at home, if the gentle
man pleases to confine it to a local
issue; but three and four years ago
there was neither a home nor a
foreign market, and produce went
a begging on the streets. Our
friend, however, maintains that all
of this market and demand is made
by Bohemia mines and the lumber
industry. True in a local sense;
but did Bohemia mines start the
factories to runniug all over the
United States? does Bohemia
mine3 and Booth-Kelley mill regu
late the wage scale from one ocean
to the other. Is Bohemia mining
district responsible for the follow
ing taken from The Cleveland
l" adei : ' 'Fifty-three factories
1 Cleveland Daid as wages in one
, lonth in 1893, the sum of $754.
Aiti... Paring the same inontn in
disttfhey paid 91 ,242,808m wages.
Tfepublican party never for
moment gave out the impression
that they could boom the markets
of the world, and that prices wouict
eo skyward, but has always
maintained that under republican
rule prices would be better, that
wages would be higher and that the
country would be more prosperous
This assertion has been demon
strated in cold facts, and all the
abusive slush that the Leader can
concoct will not stand against plain
everyday object lessons. The
Leader man must have had in mind
the old democratic banner, motto
'Cleveland and $1 wheat." For
his benefit, however, we will say
that the motto died with Cleveland
But we wish to call you to the text
Mr. Leader: if things are wrong ad
vnnoft vour theories. Give us
something better. You can abuse
us all you wish but don't abuse the
administration, until you can offer
something if not better, with a
small per cent of logic in it. Again
vmi fail to desicnate how the
cjunty court shall run things and
at the same time improve the roads
with out the use and expense o
rnrfc crusher, the sound of
nation of a President of the United
States should refrain from passing
upon his virtures. This country
seems to be a very desirable place
for most people to live in and if it
don't suit Bro. Wooley and if his
sentiments are so deep and pa
thetic for the Philippine insurgents
he had better pack up his traps and
cross the pond. He might as well
be a renegade in action as in words:
Just as a pointer to illustrate the
inconsistency ot the Leaders atti
tude, we quote the democratic press
as follows: Richmond Times (Va.)
Sun: "As for imperalism it will
probably be as dead as Julius
Caesar before the next presidential
election. Nine tenths of the
American people will insist that the
administration shall go right along
as it is now going until it compels
all insubordinate persons 111 the
Philippines to submit to the au
thority of the United States. " Speak
ing of anti-expansionists tlie Jfniia
delphia Record (Dem.) says: "If
the advice of such men had been
followed, Rome would have been
without a history, there would have
been 110 British colonies, and con
sequently our great republic would
perhaps not have come into ex
istence. We shall always have
anti-expansionists among us and we
shall have to grow accustomed to
their vaticinations." The Atlantic
Constitution (Dem ) has this: "Our
dutv to the world was to leave at
Manila a responsible government
which could have been held to ac
count for good order, and our duty
to our commercial interests torbade
that we should have submitted to
the other alternative of letting these
islands go to Iv.igland or oermany.
If Dewey s Ships nad sailed out 01
Manila bay those of Admiral
Diedrichs would have remained
there, and the Southern cotton-
grower would have been compelled
to reach the Orient through .Liver
pool or Bremen, instead of straight
across the Atlantic from our own
ports." The Lexington(Kentucky)
Herald, (democratic), says: It is
now immaterial whether we obtain
the Philippines by purchase or by
conquest; our title is now by treaty,
which treaty is the supreme law ot
the land expressly made so by the
constitution; under it those islands
are as completely part of the re-
oublic as Manhattan island or
Washington City. It is nonsense
to urge that purchase is either an
unusual or improper mode ot ob
taining title. Jefferson bought the
Louisianna territory; under Polk
we purchased territory from Mexi
co; under Johnson we purchased
Alaska except in the case of Texas
and Porto Rico, we hove paid for
acquired territory. Cowardice and
humiliation may wrest those islands
from us. In no other way will
they ever be separated. A cowardly
president may withdraw our troops;
a dishonorable congress may sur
render to Aguinaldo; this and this
alone is the only possibility; and we
do not believe this is a possibility.
We cannot conceive of any Ameri
can president or any congress sur
rendering to the armed enemies of
the country and lowering the flag
in disgrace.
Bohemia Nugget has commenced
the mechanical work upon a special
mining edition devoted to the Bo
hemia milling district, to be issued
by the first of December. For
some time active work has been
going on in the matter of compiling
authentic data pertaining to the
famous district.
The book will be 16 pages, il
lustrated, with many features fa
miliar to the frequenters of Bo
hemia District, So pound enamel
utock, bound in a handsomely
illustrated ioo pound enamel cover.
We have decided noon an issue 1
of 2000 copies. These books will
be for sale at 15 cents each. Al
ready over 1,500 copies are spoken
for leaving .1 balance of 500 yet to
be sold. In selecting matter for
these books we have used every
effort within our power to procure
good, clean and reliable informa
tion regarding the mines, and in
making it a desirable book of refer
ence, and worthy of file in any office
or home. Those who have not al
ready decided upon.the number they
want to send to friends, should do
so at once as the list is growing and
you may be too late. You cannot
do better than buy a few of those
books and distribute them.
