My reliable informant also told me
that one Kentuckian, who was about to
drink his gill of whisky and had Just re-
marked, "llere's lookin at yer" was
ehot through the body with twenty
four pound cannon ball killing him
instantly. He, however, raised Ills
whisky firmly to his lips, drank it ALL
aud sunk back smiling peacefully in
doath.
This incident shows that the chivalrous
spirit OF the present Kentuckians lived
before them In their ancestors.
My informant also told me that Gen.
Leslie Combs of Kentucky, was sent on
mission to the fort. lie travelled by
night through the wilderness, and hid by
day. When he reached the river above
the fort he felt it safe to go down by
water, and hired an Indian to paddle
his own canoe. Not many miles above
the fort, as General Combs himself told
the story, an Indian was seen running
along among the trees on the shore, and,
supposing him to he q friendly Indian,
of course, Il Shawnee or some other in
sect OF that sort, they padded toward
him. Suddenly the Indian in the canoe
swerved it so quickly away from the
shore he nearly pitched Coombs out,
and remarked, with great vehemence :
ugh, Pottawattome. He'll, damn !"
This incident shows that even Mt that
day the refining aud civilizing influence
of the white man was affecting the
gentle but untutored savage.
need not repeat that the Maumee
Valley is rich in historic lore

Having given space last week for the
charges made by the Cincinnati Ea9ur-
er's special correspondent against Sec
retary j. S. Robinson and his connection
with the Bohemian Oats business, we
this week take pleasure in giving space
for Gen. Robinson unqualified denial
of all contained in the charges so made.
II is now simply question of verucity
between the Enquirer and Gen. Robinson
and 1t 10 not simple question either,
for it is one of great concern to The pto-
pie. The people have right to know if
a newspaper has a moral or any Other
right to work up tissue of falsehoods
for political purposes, or any other pur-
pose. The time seems 10 be ripe for
the people to demand facts from editors
and from public officials. As stated last
week, IL the Enquirer can not sustain its
charges against Gen. Robinson, it is
wholly unworthy of recognition in the
future and ought to be forbidden the
use of the mails, and II Gen. Robinson
should be reelected and the charges as
made against him should be proven
true, he should DO expelled from the po,
sition and sent TO the peniteniiary, and
the Enquirer recognized as public bene.
factor. That would be the best and
only course to pursue to prevent the
passage OF laws TO rob instead OF
protesting the people.

The English Government has appoint
ed royal commission to inquire into
the propriety of restoring silver to its
former position, as a measure of valnes,
in connection with gold. Bimetalism,
it will be remembered. was the rule of
the commercial world for nearly seventy
five years. What is meant is, that the
majority of the leading nations agreed
to permit free coinage of gold and silver
at n ratio of fifteen and half parts OF
the white metal to one of the yellow
The only leading nation Which made
gold the sole standard OF values was
Great Britain. Since 1916 every debt
due n British subject was payable il
London in gold. But on the Continent
and in the United States, the payment
could he made in silver as we'll as gold
When Germany, after the war, exactet
billion Of dollars from France, tn,
latter was forced to pay in gold, ant
Germany took advantage of this pay.
ment to follow the example of Englan'
and make gold the sole unit oi value
Denmark, Scandinavia, Italy and for
time the United States, followed til
example Of Germany, and the resul
was that gold increased in purchasing
power, which fact showed itself in til
cheapening of every article the value o
which gold measured. This include
silver. The result has been very grea
distress in the business world, as no on
liked to produce goods on a falling mar
ket. The United States partially remon
etized silver, and because of that fac
has enjoyed better times than ha
Europe. India, that has exclusively silve
currency. has been terribly distressed
because it had to pay its debts to Eng
land in gold, and the rate of exchang
has been ruinous This is why Englan
is taking steps to remonetize silver, an
so check the ruinous fall in prices
Should this lie accomplished, fnancier
predict new era Of prosperity for ii
