Show MKINLEYS MESSAGE. IT IS NOTABLE FOR WHAT IT DOES NOT SAY. A Conglomenta IIbm of FImm and S abler fuze Cube tiete Very Cold Bhonldor A Document Dictated by the Money fowin ' i . President McKinleys message is largely historical in character. It tells the people what has taken place during the pastelght or ten years, but it does not give much light as to what Is going to take place. The history of the greenbacks is given, the history of the Cuban insurrection is given; the history of the tariff is given, but clear-cu- t, definite and statesmanlike recommendations as to what shall be done with the greenbacks, the Cuban question and the tariff are not given. The preeldent is full of faith. He has faith that the tariff will be all Tight if it la only given time. He has faith that Spain will come out all right if that government is given time; he has faith that reciprocity treaties will settle all commercial difficulties with foreign nations in time. The nearest approach to a positive opinion made by the president" la his recommendation that when any United States notes are redeemed in gold, auch notes shall be kept apart, and only paid out in exchange for gold." This, of course, cannot be accomplished without an amendment of the existing currency laws, and as it is in effect a contraction of the currency it will meet with decided opposition in congress. The message is long, labored and in the nature of a special plea. The task before the president was full of difficulties. He was forced to congratulate the country on a prosperity which Is not general; to urge monetary measures upon which his own .party is divided; to plead for Spain when the people wished him to plead for Cuba; to promise future revenue, when a present deficit stared him in the face, and to recommend Hawaiian annexation in opposition to public sentiment.

Sam Walter Foss, r National Receivership. A receiver has been asked for Spring Valley, III If the court grants the petition, the city affairs will be taken out of the hands of the people and vested in a trustee as absolutely as if he were a czar. Perhaps this will open the way to take the people's franchise from them,for they will have no power over their own affairs. In ithis way, the U. 8. supreme court might settle all the national affairs by lappointing a receiver if the republic 'could be made to default on some of its obligations, and the receiver could then operate the nation, and save the jpeople the time and trouble of chewing 'the rag over the finance, tariff and other rags every campaign. I think ;thls would be a capital idea. If it is right to consider a receivership for a (city, it is right to consider one for a state or nation. J. A. Wayland.
