FRIDAY, DEO. 20 1895. .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 'the ruin of their party.
