TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. One year. Six months, Three mouths. 12.00 J.00 .50 As we hasten Joyously to press with the editorial page, we pause to remark that the great M. I. A. fair bids fair to be very fair. It is hoped the weather man will take frigid measures to attend to the spring poet before he arouses from his winter's sleep. Let him sleep. Business men, shall wc get out a Christmas edition of 5,000, containing a write-up of Sprlngville, her re sources, with additional mention of you and your business? If we do, it will cost some little from you say from 12.50 to $10 each. Shall we try it? Tn associated press dispatches of Sunday, infarmed the public that Benjamin Harrison had made 1100-000 1100-000 out of the Kafllr speculation craze and some persons are asking If he is the same Ben Harrison who so energetically ener-getically assisted in strangling the Loulsanna lottery. Th Salt Lake Argus has a correspondent corres-pondent at Provo-one "Allspice", or "Nutmeg" or "Clove", or something of that sort, at any rate whose statements state-ments in regard to the late election are almost anything but accurate. Go get you an election table and a County map, O scribe, or let someone else guess your facts for you. ... Thjc Logan Journal mentions Buffalo Buf-falo Win. Glasinano as a possible United States senator from Utah and that gentleman hastens to resent it. With a political foresight as remarkable remark-able as the average citizen's hindsight hind-sight Mr. Glasmann realizes that he is too young and tender a lamb thus to be led to the slaughter. Why cannot the expression "sound money", used In the East to mean a single gold standard, be given a more liberal interpretation aad be made to mean the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at the ratio of IS to 1, with a reasonable Isi use of treasury notes? It seems that the latter interpretation in-terpretation is the truest. Many, piomlnent papers rail at the evident inclination of American heiresses heir-esses U supply the matrimonial markets of Europe, to the consequent neglect of our own. Let 'em go, dear brethren; If the sweet creatures are no more American than this movement move-ment Indicates, America is well-rid of them. However, if our Uncle Sam'l had a little 60 per cent ad valorem expert duty on heiresses he would be nulte a few dollars richer each year. Iw Europe may be socn the spectacle specta-cle of a corterle of very pious and sanctimonious nations holding up their hands in holy horror while the Turk, unhindered, butchers their Armenian Ar-menian Christian brethren In cold blood. Old Eugland, even, who years ago staved off from Turkey her well-merited well-merited doom, now feebly protests in tones which belle her wcrds. She saved the Turks from the Christians tut will not exert herself to save a few Christians from the Turks. The fact is, these Europeans are afraid to move In the matter for fear one may Kain a shilling's worth of advantage over the other when the Ottoman empire flnallj goes to pieces. In the meantime the fatalistic Turk, who believes "what Is to be will be," goes about his business of exterminating the "uabellevers" and does not concern con-cern himself as to what goes on outside the empire. No doubt he has an appreciation of the true situation. J'fiow locg, O Lord, how iocs?" A NIW REMEDY NEEDED. When Benjamin Harrison was elected president of this great Republic Repub-lic something ailed the country, but no one knew Just exactly what it was. Nevertheless it devolved upon the party in power to concoct some remedy rem-edy for the evil and the party presented pre-sented the McKinley bill, claiming that it would meet all the requirements require-ments of the case, but it didn't. The party that prescribed the remedy rem-edy claimed that it greatly helped the country, and the opposing party claimed that It made the case worse. It may have been beneficial, or it may have been otherwise, but it Is not our purpose to discuss this question. At any rate the spirit of uortst still con. tinued, the people were not satisfied with the remedy, and at the first opportunity op-portunity discharged the doctors and installed otheis. The new physicians seeing that the high pressure remedy was not doing the work of making the country what It ought to be, decided to give the patient the low pressure remedy, and the chief mogul of this new aggregation of quacks kicked because his confreres would not give the patient a large dose of the low pressure nostrum. But the majority of his confreres claimed that the dose was large enough for the present, and promised that a larger dose would be administered later on. The party responsible for the dose claimed they bad solved the problem, and that the patient would soon be In better health than at any previous period of its existence, but It isn't very well yet. The opposing party claimed that the remedy was killing the patient but the party that prescribed pre-scribed the medicine claimed it was doing good. This, like the other remedy, may or may not have been good, but the people didn't take kindly to it and have threatened to discharge the physicians at the first opportunity. It is safe to say that neither remedy was what the patient needed, that the various medicines prescribed have not done tee good the prescribes claimed they would. In order to cure a disease or rsmedy an evil the physician phy-sician In charge must know the cause thereof, and act accordingly, and it is very plain that these different quacks either didn't know the cause of the ailment, or having taken no account of it, and were, of course, unsuccessful unsuccess-ful in an attempt to effect a cure. Either the high pressure or the low pressure remedy may be equal to affording irellef, but neither can effect a cure because It does not reach the cause of the complaint. It is therefore plain that some sew remedy Is needed before a complete cure can be offected, and that remedy will reach the cause, and increase the circulation cir-culation of the life blood of trade, by remonetlilng silver. The great trouble of the country is not with the trade relations, but with the finances, and the careful observer can easily trace the cause of the present pre-sent distress to the demonetization of sllver.and the cause must be removed before the distress can be permanently permanent-ly relieved, in other words, silver must be remonetized before the country coun-try will become as prosperous as its resources warrant All honest Republicans will admit that the McKinley law did not do all that it was claimed it would do, and all honest Democrats must admit that the present tariff law Is not all that they claimed it would be.

LOUIS, MO. recent landslide Democrats would do well to remember that their party did not give the patient the right kind of medicine and unless they hare something some-thing else to offer they will be kicked out, and Republicans should remember remem-ber that tbey were kicked out in '92 because the drug they prescribed did not have the desired effect, and they must lind some other remedy, or tbey will be kicked out again. Although all the people may not know the cause of the distress, they are wise enough to know whether the remedy is doing the proper amount of good, and will be certain to discbarge any quack or gaug of quacks that do not do better than the present or preceding pre-ceding gang has done. Thb building of a stone bridge over Hobble Creek is a move in the right direction. The people 'are commencing commenc-ing to realize that ,as bridges are a necessity they may as well be built for all time. The first cost Is vastly greater, of course, but is not so bard to bear as the endless drain of expense ex-pense tor a long series ofcompari-tively ofcompari-tively temporary structures. The stage of development of the country is now such that all public improvements improve-ments should be made with a view to permanency. The growth of population popula-tion and commerce locally, even, demands de-mands an improved and more efficient system of public highways In order that the affairs of a more intensive life may be carried on with greater economy. By making small and sure beginnings this system will develop gradually and easily, and with less chance of having extravagant errors to correct later on. -i .iiuo We have advocated the acceptance, by the people, of the constitution so that glorious paens of Joy and thanksgiving thanks-giving for the freedom of statehood might be rung out with those of our natural thanksgiving paens of 1895, but we, in common with all independent independ-ent papers and people, cannot but associate its entry with a feeling of sadness. Had the past campaign been fought without dragging the skeleton out of the closet 1 we could most consistently have hoisted our rooster with all the vim of true Independence, Inde-pendence, but we ask our readers to please excuse us now.
