At tho recont mesting of the National al Bstate association at Buffalo, dge Dexter of Bimira, N. Y., deliv ered an address on building and loan associations that has attracted consid- erable attention, Ho pointed out the origin of these ngsociations and veviewed theiv growth, placing great stress upon their inflnence in communitios as pro- moters of home buildin nd good citi- zenship. He preforved to Philadelphia a3 the birth place of this systom and stated thut that city, pro-eminently the city of homes, has been less subject to yor troubles than any other city in the land. The inference is that communities whose inhabitants own their homes a for that reason botter off in everything that goes to maks up good eitizenship than those in which the masses are pay- ing rent. Comm s mado up of tenants, he said, v to condi- conducivo to patriotism, edu- eation or thrift, It interesting to note in this con- nection that the Ameriean peoplo are showing an dppreciation of the advan- t fforded by loan associations. Theve are now 6,500 of these associations in the United States with a totat of 1,500,000 sharcholders and having assets to the amount of $550,000,000. It is needless to say that a system by which the wage-earning class is encouraged to suve money and secure homes must be penelicial to every community in which it is established. Proof of thisis to be found in Omaha and in other cities where loan associations are now flour- ishing. When the poor man becomes a home-owner he has a stake in the gen- 4l prosparity of the community, and every dollar investad by him in his home m1kes him a more desirable citi- zen, re subje tions not THE CYCLONE CAMPAIGNER. The Chicago Iferald is making a bril- liant reputation in the present campaign as a matehl unity howler. Accord- ing to that marvelous magician the re- publican pavty is vesponsible not only for all the ills that llesh heir to. but for all the crimes in the calendar from petit larceny to arson, muraer and treasonuble conspiracy. It has proved beyond peradventure that the cholera has been imported into this country by the McKinley tariff, and that ever spocios of iniquity and vice has been generated through the McKinley law. The latest discovery made by the po- litical astronomer who scans the politi- cal hovizon through the Heralds mag- nifying telescope is that the pearl button industry in this country fostered by the McKinley bill is 1n the interest of coavict lahor.

The low price of wheat, a late statement says, is ducing tho cultivators to beggary, while employment in the agricultural districts is both very searee and unprofit- able, farin hands recciving only 12 shillings, or a little less than #3, per week. With o view to obtaining relief r the farmers project a national ageicul- tural conforence, ut which reduced vents and tha croation of a land court for fixing veuts will bo advocated. As un instanco of the depression it is said that the farmors’ association of Lan- cashiro is opening butchers’ shops wherein to disposs of grazing stoo Perhaps the most serious burden which the I aglish farmers have to bear is the high rent of land exacted by the com- paratively fow men who own the farms of England, but this is not the sole cause of the depression of agriculturo in Eng- land. ‘Tno Iigiish farmer is subjectod toa destructive eompatition. 1o can- uot enjoy the exslusive benefits of his bome mivket, and just ngw that market is not at itz hyst owing’ to the wide- spread dopression in manufacturing in- dustries, which hus created a large army »oople and an uncommon amount a cconomy. England prosents at this time a dismal commentary on her pol icy of free trade. PERUAPS it is wise to take the state- wents of those interested in mining plants with some grains of allowance, but the perfect agroement of reports from many sources concssning the min- eral wealth of the Black Hills naturally communds sttention, evear from thoss who are inclined to be skeptical.

They knew by personal experience the ovils incident to it,—that it robbed the producer and the labover, and caused endless trouble and annoyance to all classes of the people. It is indeed amazing that after an experience of a generation with a sound currency a volitical party claiming to be guided by the wisdom of its earlier and greater leaders, should propose to restoro a system which flooded the country with paper money that was largely worth- less, and a source of incaleulable loss to classes of the people who could least afford to bear it T closing days of this witness great activity public works.

It nocessarily must represent far more nearly the wishos of the people for president than one chosen two vears before. Again, President Har might recoive a plurality of 1,000,000 on the popular vote, the republicans might carcy a majority of house members in twenty-three or twenty-four states out of the forty-four, and IHarrison might receive many more electoral votes than any one of his ~competitors, might get slectors, and yet if he failed 'to cot 22 oloctoral votes he would be beaten and Ciev land elected by tho votes of states cast by congressmen ‘elected in 1500, when party platforms had not been made or candidates chosen and no one was thinking of the presi dency.

Tt is too late to make the correction now, and the republicans must confront the un- pleasant situation, They wmust open their eves to the tact that the ‘democrats are not wuorking for Weaver, but for Cleveland; that by belping Weaver to some electoral Votes bevond the Missouri river thoy are securing the presidency for the fat propbet and the federal oftices for their own spoilsmen.
