people deserve to know the

times overturned by the popular up-
risingjagainst cheap money. Never
outside of the United States, and
never till a period of what has been
supposed to be one of general en-

and the tillers of the soil demanded
that they be pad for their labor and
their produce in currency of uncer-

Let us analyze
its argument a little. It says
the advocates are landed pro-
prietors who are seeking by du-
ties, etc., to make the cost of
living higer to the masses, They
also believe that the double
staudard would increase the
prices on products of the soil
and would keep out the Ameri-
can products while our farmers
are interested in increasing the
European demand. Here it
shows its cloven foot. It tries

one voice, call for silver and
gold, it says are [.rushing to
their own ruin. It is a little
wonderful how much interest
this editor of the Journal of
Commerce has in“our farmers!”
“Finally, the opposition to
the effort in behalf of &c.”
Comes from the leaders of
the vast majority of working
men outside of the professional
and employing classes.
“A rise in the price of food
would be disastrous to the
wonting classes.”
The editor clearly states a
but claims that “Cleveland,Car-
lisle & Co. felt that paying a
littlp higher interest than they
might have paid for the mere
placement of the bonds, was an
economy in comparison with
the issue of added quantities
of bonds merely for the pur-
pose of adding a dead weight
of gold to the unprotected re-
serve.” There is the milk in
thecocoanut. The policy of
Cleveland to pay gold when
“coin” is the word, has placed
the treasury at the mercy of
the bankers, and to stop it he
found it necessary to pay trib-
ute to the king of the clan. The
same paper says: “The United
States notes in the treasury on
Saturday amouted to fifty-one
million, and the treasury notes
issued under the Sherman act
to thirty-five millions; there is
no reason why this entire
amount of legal tender paper
should not be kept in the treas-
ury till the meeting of congress.
A large surplus is likely to
prove a great temptation to
congress, and for that reason
the administration is likely to
be better able to maintain a
gold standard without the as-
sistance of congress.” The in-
come is not sufficient to defray
the expenses of government but
the Gorman bill authorizing an
issue of a hundred million dol-
lars worth of bonds to defray
current expenses, will enable
the treasury to hold the hun-
dred million of legal tender
notes. The notes bear no in-
terest and it is, therefore, de-

person, by promise to marry, shall
seduce a girl between the ages
of 16 and 25, he shall be fined not
exceeding $500 and may be put in

provides that if any person, with or
without promise to marry, seduces
any girl under the age of sixteen

BIMETALLISM IN GERMANY,
The New York Journal of
Commerce has this to say on
the Gorman proposition to
Hi adopt the bimelalic standard:
The silver debate in the German
Reichstag on Saturday is worth a
little analysis. The advocates ot
the double standard were the large
landed proprietors who are seeking
by duties on grain and meat to make
the cost of living higher for the
masses of the people. Furthermore,
these landed proprietors believe
that the double standard would in-
crease prices and so keep out foreign
grain and meat, while our farmers
are interested in increasing the Eu-
ropean demand. The German advo
cates of silver understand perfectly
well that the establishment of the
double standard by Germany alone
would be impossible, and the estab-
lishment by Germrny of the silver
standard while the rest of the com-
mercial world used gold would be
absolutely without benefit to t^e
German producing interests. There-
fore the German silver men seek
onlyto bring about international bi-
metallism. Incomprehensibly blind
to their own interests and the limi-
tations of natiotal action, our sliver
men think that we can establish the
double standard for ourselyes, ot
that if we cannot, it would be to our
advantage to be on a silver basis
while the rest of the world was on a
gold basis. Finally, the opposition
to the effort in behalf of internation-
al bi-metallism came from the radi-
cals and social democrats, who rep-
resent the vast majority of the
working men and the urban popula-
tion outside of the professional and
employing classes. They under-
stand, what the leaders of our work-
classes there would suffer from
the increased price in products
of the soil. Then it is evident
that we who produce these
necessaries would reap an ad-
vantage, but he is too good to
the German laboring man to do
justice to our own laboring peo-
ple.
“The wage earners need to
be paid in the best money there
is, that of which the least will
buy the most.”
Then the great bulk of
American laborers—farmers
—are to have the produce
lowered to starvation prices
in order that the German
laborers and the labor-
ing classes of this coun
try, outside of farmers, may
have good money and cheap
living. The masses are to be
impoverished for the benefit
of a fe w mechanics and office
holders, and they are to pay
interest on bonds to keep up
the credit of the nation that
these favored few may have a
money that will buy the most
for the least. The last sen-
tence of his article shows how
wonderfully paternal he has
grown. If the farmers or
wage earners affe forced to
pay for the difference between
the money they ask for, and
the money the favored few
must have, to purchase the
farm products at reduced
prices, why not let them have
the less valuable money at
the start. Are Pot the men
who make the wealth, capa-
ble of selecting the kind of
money they wish to be paid
in?

The New York World, in a
recent local comment, spoke of
the defective teaching in the
public schools of that city and
gave the cause for failure in
most of the applicants for civil
service examinations, stating
that the schools fail to teach
spelling and composition. It
goes without saying that the
same statement could be truth-
fully made abont most of onr
public schools, in fact the tend
ency is toward smattering. Not
one teacher in ten can write a
decent article for the press, one
that he would be willing to go
to the public without taking
two or three hitches at it. We
would like to see a competitiye
examination on spelling and
composition, and think it would
be of far greater benefit than
the competitive declamations
usually given at school closings.

“Perhaps you Would not think s6,
but a very large proportiom of dis-
eases in New York comes from care-
lessness about catching cold,” says
Dr. Cyrus Edson. “It is such a
simple thing and so common that
very few people unless it is a case of
pneumonia, pay any attention to a
cold. There are a great many cases
of catarrh and consumption which
have their origin in this neglect of
the simplest precaution ol every day
life. The most sensible advice is,
when you have one, get rid of it as
soon as possible. By all means do
not neglect it.” Dr- Edson does not
tell you how to cure a cold but we
will. Take Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. It will relieve the lungs,
aid expectoration, open the secre-
tions and soon effect a permanent
