McKiuley's election. Hence the following World editorial will be of interest: Paxson of Pennsylvania for chairman of the interstate commerce commission is another and valuable instance of thut tenacious conmetency which bas been Mr. McKinluy's chief characteristic. Our president is a max of convictions and of courage of them. How shall I intrench myself in power? Row shall 1 arrange for a renomination: These ure the inquiries that are ever uppermost in his and heurt.

answer them he looks about him for the "powers that in order that he may make friends with them, He has become convinced that those powers are the trusts, the monopolies, the corropt rings, bosses, the various elements that industriously and most success fully cajole and cheat the people. Arrived at this conviction, he has acted upon it with coarage, steadfastness and minute sistency: hence the selection of McKenna for the supreme bench, hence the Paxsons for high executive places, hence the inexpressibly fonl Kimberleys, Demuses and Coliens for minor federal hence, coo, the pardoning af "respectable robbors," with Republican tional committeemon as backers, ut the rate of que every three weeks. Mr. McKinley has derided that the control of our public affairs has passed from the poople to the plutocracy and its allies, the bosses nod political corruptionists. Ho is using his best judgment in furthering his ambitions.

By that judgment he will stand or fall. Why does the New York World complain of the man whom The World belped to elect? When The World gave McKinley valuable aid in the campaigo, that newspaper knew that under a MicKinloy administration the railroads would be permitted to control the iuterstute commerce commission. The World knew that "the trusts, the 100- nopolies, the corrupt rings, the bosses, tho varions elements that industriously and successfully cajole and cheat the people," were large contributors to the McKinley campaign fund. Did The World imagine that these elements were making their contributions out of 8 spirit of liberality? Did not The World know that these contributions were vestments rather than gifts? Did The World expect any bank wrecker to remain in prison so long as Mr. McKinley coald find even a poor excuse to pardon him? The World does right in making its criticisms, but chat great newspapor ought to understand that the time for it to do effective work on behalf of good government is prior to election day.

I cannot expect to obtain good governmeat from men who are elected to office by men who have more concern for special interests than they bave for public interests. -Orraha World- -Herald.

Observations 00 the Report of the Indi. azapolis Side Show Holders of Idle Capital Don't Want Prosperity -Some Statements of Fact. The self constituted "'monetary has completed its report to the self constituted executive committee of the self constituted aud appointed In- We learn from the report of this self constituted corrency commission that serious evil affecting our present monetary system is the threatened degradation of its standard." In other words, there is a threat somewhere in the air that gold may go to a premium and the people get higher prices for their products and bigher wages for their labor. Even higher prices, without any premium on gold, would bo a "degradation of the standard." The "standard" was "degraded" from 1862 to 1879, the people received profitable prices for their products, men of enterprise built railways and established industries, and prosperity was the portion of the people, It was too much for the bolders of inactive capital. They bared in the prosperity, it is true, but they wanted to have all the prosperity to themselves.

They set up a cry about "inflation" and they talked about "inflated prices" until the people really believed that prosperity was hurtful. So the peopie sent mien to congress who voted for repudiation. The congressmen called it "resumption, but it was really repudiation, for the people were compelled to pay in gold debty that were contracted in depreciated paper. This was repudiation, and this was what forced resamp. tion meant.

It had the practically unanimous opposition of the Democratio party, which bas always and everywhere been opposed to repudiation. The self constituted committee makes some remarks about the "standard." It says that "there mast be some standard of value." It "must have a market value as a commodity independently of any governmental fat and of all legal tender laws." It may be remarked here that there never was and never will be such a commodity. Let those governmeats which have gold as the standard demonetize that metal, and its value will fall below that of silver. Even when coined as money it never has been used as a circulating medium, except in the mining regions. The committee proceeds, "'It must have, as a commodity, as stable a market value as possible, and in order to socare the stability of that market value the relation between its supply and demand must be as constant as possible." The fact is notorious that gold does not ful.

fill these conditions. There is no relation whatever between the demand and the supply. The demand for gold is the multiplied demand for all other commodities in countries where gold is the standard. The supply depends upon the accident of discovery or on the caprice nature. To that which we have quoted the committee adds, "The civilized world has therefore determined that the standard shall be gold." To this it may replied that the European govern(ments are wholly controlled by the selfish interests of those who own the gold.

In this country the gold standard was imposed on the pecule without their knowledge or consent. The deed was put into the form of law by means of clandestine legislation, as the record shows, and was so covertly carried ont that the president who signed the bill not know what its effect would be. With these statements of fact we have report of the self constituted committee to speak for itself. It is entitled no more measure of respect than the otterance of an individnal. Its form and substance were dictated by the Gold trast, and it will have just as much effect on the public sentiment of the conntry--no more, no -as if it bore the signatures of British bankers.

The question of the standard will be settled by people. If they want the gold standwith poverty prices and pauper wages, we are perfectly willing that they should indorse the gold standard. their interest we sbould like to eee standard "degraded" by a rise of prices, wages and property values as compared with gold Bus this matter will be settled by the people, and not by self constitnted commissions. -Atlanta Coustitution. dianapolis monetary convention.

It is a somewhat lengthy document and peed not be seriously discussed. Thougb it has already been indorsed in advance by Mr. McKinley, the only effect that its introduction in the house cau bare will be to demoustrate the active and actual lack of harmony that exists in the Republican party on the money question. The report will doubtless be intro" doced in congress as a nonpartisan" scheme, bet the moment that discussion begins the fact will develop that it is Doc only partisan affair, but exceedingly inflammatory in its nature. There is no doubt about the serious defects of our national banking system.

The Constitution has been calling attention to them for yeurs, and on more than one occasion its motives have been misconstrued by those interested in banks. The system, as we bare pointed out a hundred times, was not primarily intended as banking system. Its whole parpose was to furnish a market that would upbold the value of United States bonds. It was not conceived in the peace interests of the people, but was invented for the purpose of enabling the government to sell its bonds issued for war purposos at the highest figure. Judged by what it was intended to be, and not what it purports to be, there is no doubt that the national basking system has been a success.
