A speaker at the Grange defined
capital as utcatuulated lubor. The
census Is suld to show that 40,000
futnllies own ouohult the property
in ibis country. They did not euru
it, nor the monoy ou which it was
accumulated. Credits do not repre
sent cupital produced by labor, as a
rule, yet the stock-aud-boud credit
system has manufactured million
aires faster than any other process,
Iu 16G0 $45,000 lu gold would buy
$100,000 in circulating medium. Iu
place of this could be got $100,000 in
government bonds drawing G per

national bank notes tbut could be
loaned at current mterest. Was
this capital created by labor?

When tho Portland Oregonlau
discusses tho subject of silver its
statements are always rickety. In
a recent article it mild: "Wo take
standard dollars at their face iu gold,
though they are lutrinslcally worth
ouly 73 cents each; fust, because the
government Is pledged to redeem
them, and second, because wo bo
lievo in Its ability to keep the
pledge." Tho muu who penned the
abovo statement Is absolutely Igno
rant of tho subject ho discusses.
Tho government has given no such
pledge, either directly or indirectly.
A standard dollar Is declared by law
to bo worth us much as a gold dollur,
and that Is why thoy pass sido by
sldo at par. Tho writer who says
that silver dollars aro redeemable in
gold is probably unaware that ut one
time standard dollars were at u pre
mium over gold on a ratio of slxteou
to one. and will probably command

An easily-prepared, inexpensive,
easily-digested, toothsome, appetiz
ing pudding for children (and then
it will be just as good for adults,) is
a greater boon In a fumlly than u
fancy chaudeller or a ten dollar
album or velyet-bouud blblo made
only to look at.
Children aro attached to their
homes us much by what they find
at meal time as by well-appointed
parlors, if not moro. Small children
need sweet dishes, and in place of
candies and tarts and cookies all
right at times onco a day a sweet
flavored, baked pudding Is a remem
brance, ono of tho sweet honio influ
ences, that will bind your ohlld, as
Shakespeare says, "with hooks of

HUGGKSTKD COMMENT.
A threo-mlle driving park out on
Englewood avenue, Is among the
Salem Improvements that will bo
mudo right away.
Advices of Wednesday state that
St. Petersburg la virtually in a slato
of siege. During tho post two days
police have ransacked every house
whero thoy suspect that evldeuco
may bo obtained of nihilist plot tings.
After tho arrest of tho would-be as
sassin, Shamolklu, Tuesday, tho fact
was communicated to thovzar, but
uot to the czarina, and their majes
ties went through tho Imperial guard
as if nothing had happeUcd. The
czar, appeared as uncoucerned as ou
any other parade and was more than
usually gracious in mauuer. He
lias ordered that tho imperial thanks
bo conveyed to tho police officers
whoso vlgllanco probably saved his
life, and has stated that ho will take
occtislou to conyey further marks of
his appreciation. Tho aoyero mens
tires ugaihst tho socialists have ex
tended to Marburg, Germany, and
authorities thcro havo Issued orders
that uo more meetings of tho social
ists shall bo permitted lu that place,
where the students of tho university
are strongly tainted with ideas of
social democracy. Of !uto tho Mar
burg socialists have become demon
strative and ngresslvo in thoir pro.
pngandlsm and tho pollco assert
their assemblies toud to promote
sedition and disorder.
A demand has been made upon
tho Rev. Samuel Small to account
for funds collected for tho Utah uni
versity, of which Mr. Small Is presi
dent. When asked about the matter
by a Press representative, Mr. Small
replied: "I havo been expecting some
such malicious attack from this
man, tho Rev. J. Wesley mil, whom
I recently forced to retract his
slauders, and whom I am preferriug
charges ugalust of conduct which
will expel him from tho Methodist
ministry. This Is his lust effort to
muddy the water and hldo his own
evil dollies. I urn ready to answer
to any authorities for nil my acta. I
huvo dono nothing wreng: have
nothing to conceal; Invito tho ut
most nubile scrutiny ofallllmvo
done and four nothing lu tho results

AMATEUR EXn,0BIN3 TRir.
London April 10. -A St. Peters
burg dispatch says that Russia will
consider as au act of war auy inter
ference by Italy with tho Russian
expedition starting in threo or four
days for Abyssinia. Russia regards
tho Emperor Menelek at tho inde
pendent sovereign of an independent
nation, and will tolerate uo obstruc
tion lu dealing directly with klm.
Tho expedition is under tho com
mand of Lieutenant Mashkoff, a
very determined man, of approved
courago uud a powerful physique.
Ho Is 33 years of nge, and has served
two years in tho army of tho Cau
casus. The second in command is
a monk named Tlkhou. Tho expe
dition expects to bo about two
months on tho journey. A substan
tial habitation will be erected thero
for ubo during tho rainy Beason,
uud excursions will be mado iu
vurious directions to gathor scientific
facts und mako inquiries as to the
history and condition of the peoplo.
Tho expedition will remain threo
years In tho couutry, and make an
attempt to reach tho great lakes
from a direction uot yet attempted
by Europeans. It Is this part of tho
program that excites English Jeal
ousy, uud It Is feared may lead to
underhand attempts to lnjuro tho
expedition, or at least to defeat its
objects. Lleutonaut Mushoffls con
fident, howover, that with tho
friendship of Menelok, which ho
has overy reason to expect, he will
bo able to resist auy hostile attack.

Richmond, Va., April 10. Lewis
Booker, ono of the most prominent
citizens of Richmond, was arrested
Wednesday night, charged with
misappropriating funds belonging
to tho Vanwlncklo estate Tho
amount of his shortage Is put at
over $100,000. Mr. Booker la treas
urer and a leading member of tho
St. Paul's Episcopal church, a part
ner lu a largo Insurance agency
firm, and was regarded aa one of
tho safest aud most exemplary men
lu tho community. Ho had In lato
years had tho management of sev
eral largo estates, Ho positively
refuses to mako auy statement, aud
his friends are at a loss to account
for tho disposition ho has mado cf
the money. Wednesday morning
bills wero filed In tho chancery court
attaching his property nnd making
various parties defendants to tho
suit. When tho news leaked out
sovoral days ago that thero was
something wrotig In his affairs, It
was generally believed that tho
whole trouble was due to errors of
Judgment lu Investing In his fidu
ciary capacity, but now it ia opouly
charged that he sold trust securities
and appropriated tho money, Tho
: cuso Is uot ballublo, and Mr. Booker,

THK WHEAT MARKET.
San Francisco, April 10. The
steadily advancing tendency of tho
wheat market Is at presout tho chief
topic discussed on 'change Indica
tions aro that local exporters, or
those who had tho forethought to
buy heavily somo tlmo ago, will net
handsomo returns. Probably not a
fow of tho producers who sold earlier
lu tho season now regret having
dono bo, though In each season there
ure those who hold on too long for a
rulse, and finally have to accept
much lower prices than might have
been obtained nt other times. Aa
the whoat situation is uow largely
of a speculative character, tho Imme
dlato futuro is more or less uncertain
us regards values, though somo of
the shrewdest speculators do not
hesitate to take their chances by
buying right along on u rising mar
ket. But tho bulls apparently havo
reasons for their course, whloh aro
to be found In recent reports, otll
elul aud otherwise, respecting
tho world's prospective supply and
requirements. California Is now
close upon another harvest eeasou,
and tho arrival of new wheat will
affect vulues to some extent here
unless producers receive sufllcleut
oucourugemeut from abroad to pur
sue a holdlng-on policy, Tho years
1880 and 1800 aro the only ones on
record In whloh California wheat
