.WILL THEY DO I l'.
Never perhaps in the history of the
country lias a greater degree of anxiety
Wen exhibited or felt in the action of
congress. The country lias good rea
hod to be anxious. The great problem
before it and its represeiiatives is liovv
shall the country and its industries be
A condition of prosperity
So accustomed arc we to speak of pros*
peiity without having any of it or any
great amount of it at hand when
asked to define or give an example of
what we long for we we might have
conside^/ddc' difficulty, The copdApm
of thitfWjrSUiHiy in- - live year <J A
perhaps came as near to thcstandaio ■
that will satisfy us as anything else.
In fact the conditions of 1890 may he
naid to fill all requirments. In the
year the.jwopltr of this countty
were empKycd nj a fair wages or they
•were •ngaged in moderately remune
rative pursuits. ■ There wifs perhaps,
DQt a single tramp in the entire limbs
of the United States. The only paupers
were persons who, hy reason of old
age of other disabilaty, were unable to
work, and they were all provided for
in the state and county asylums
yiiore were also a few millionaires
fend there was littlo speculative busi
i iess winch led to the sudden creation
•f great wealth. The government issu
ed no paper money, but only gold fur
large payment* and subsidiary silver
for small amounts. The national debt
■wus small, although in eight-five years
the country had. passed through threo.
wars, and the taxes were so easily
paid that, nobody ever talked about
them. The United States, next to
Great Britian, had tho gi : etest number
of merchant ships cn tho ocean
T*day the conditins , are very diL
Cerent. The New Orleans Pacayune
outlines these. "In the tirat place,
■ays the Picayune, there arc in parts
•f the country many men whoarecon
euutly out of employment. Tramps
Who will not work, and the
paupers who cannot, amount to an
nriny- Millionaires are counted by
llie thousand, and a vast amount if
the business done is that of a specula
tive soi l by which fortunes are made
and lost in the same day, and well to
do preple aie beggared it; an
hour. Tho United States owes the
enormous debt aud the taxes to main
tain the vast annual expenses of the
government are oppressive, but not
autiicleut to meet current demands.
As to the money issued by the gov
ernment, it consists largely of paper
notes Which one body of people desires
to see immensely increase, while an
other body wants the public and pri
vate fiuanees of the country brought
to a silver basis, with dollars reduced
to one-half the present standard of
value. When it comes to American
mercantile shipping, the contrast with
the conditions of other nations is
truly humiliating. There is not per
il ips, a third class commercial country
that does not own and opperat© in for
egin coinmc rce a tonnage vastly great
er than that of the United States,”
After all, the solution of the problem
is not very difficult, provided the men
can be found who will fill the require
ments to .bring about the conditions
necessary in order to secure perma
nent prosperity. It is, says the Piea
yuue,‘‘good, plain common sense" tin t
ia wanted. It is more than that. It is
more patrotism ad less selfishness,
less politics of the lowest grade and
an elevation of its plane. Only pure
patrotism and honesty among the
members who compose the prescut
congress will bring about prosperity of
conditions or such as existed in ISGI>-
conditions that were entirely differe U
from those of todsy. Flie country ex
pects much from represeualives in
♦lie present congress. It has n right
to do s<> for they wore elected because
of the hope that they would improve
upon the course pursued bt tlie Dem
ocratic congress, which disgusted and
embittered Democrats and wrough. j
