SILVER BULLION CERTIFI-
GATES.
Let Them "Dunp," Our Farmers
Can Stand 1t.

Maj. McClamny on June It'll
said: Mr.. Speaker: 1t is SAID
as an argument against free
coinage of silver, that Europe
and other countries will dump
their silver upon this country.
Listening to this argument,
was induced to reflect that the
countries would not dump their
silver without consideration
therefore. In other words; not
for the fun of it. If then, they
do for a consideration, what s
that to be, save and accept it
be our products outside of silve.
Must it not be the products
Of our farms, our mines, our
manufactures, Then, diferen-
TALLY | submit.
For our wheat let them dump.
For our corn let them dump
Let them dump for our p"ovi-
SiOns.
Let them dump for our wage
workers, in field and mine anG
shop.
With this dump we can pay
off our mortgages and overcome
the influences depressing the
energies of our people, ant
absorbing their resources to til,
point OF bankruptcy.

The Mississippi court closed the
"Prize Fight" case last week by
IMPOSING fine of $500 on John
l., Sullivan, in lieu of the SELL
tence of imprisonment already
imposed upon him. The laws
OF Mississippi have been inforc-
ed and its reputation sustained.
While the decision Of the court
was less severe than Gov. Low
cry and the opponents of the
brutal outrage would have de-
sired, yet II may at least dis
courage pugilistic amusements
in the borders of the South and
teach these prize fight aspirants
to select their battle grounds
further North, where they, no
doubt, would find more appre-
citation i'll theil chosen profess

County Primaries.

Mr.. EDITOR: A mouth or more
ago I sent you an article setting
out my views on the proper and
just plan for holding county
prim aries. For some cause the
article was overlooked and did
not appear in type. The article
by Mr.. G. r. Williams, of New
ton Grove, which you published
recently, presented about the
same views contained in the
article which sent You. I take
lake this means of endorsing
Mr.. Williams position aud hope
that the idea will prevail ana
that the plan will be put into
practical operation i'm every

like to have the opinion of 9TH
ers. Very respectfully,

by no less person than Hon. John
S.Chandlcr, who is a prominent cam
didate for Congress in the atlanta

strong article on the Commission,
showing that it has saved the people
thousands and thousands Of dollars,
and prevented discriminat. on against
weak roads and small intermediate

LEFT-LEGGEDNESS.

In a paper on Cleft legged
ness" read before the British
Association, DR.. Sibley speaks
Of a man as having been sup
posed 70 be a right handed ami
NAL. Being right-handed, it is
popularity assumed that he is
also rjght-legged; but this does
not appear to be the case. Stand
Ing working with the right
hand, there is tendency to use
the left leg for balance. MANY
people find less exertion in 60
ing round circles to the right
than in circles to the left; race
paths are nearly always made
for running i'll circles to the
right So the majority of move
ments are more readily per-
formed to the right, as dancing,
running, etc. The rule in walk
ing is to keep to the right, aud
this appears to be almost uni
versal. Crowds tend TO bear to
the right. The left leg being
the stronger, it is more readily
brought into action; hence
troops start off with the left
foot; it is the foot which is
placed in the stirrup OF the
saddle or step Of the bicycle in
mounting; so the left is the
foot which d man takes of
from in jumping. Man, being
naturally or artificially right
handed and left-legged, tends
""o0-.o0iO'."iJ, ~ Lv.v. ~ tI,u
right; lower animals, Oh the
9th r hand, appear nearly al.
wa! s to circle to the left.

Let US Be Just Before we are Gen.
erOuS,

The COmmOner, in commenting on
the proposition to make an enormous
appropriation for the Washington ex-
hibit at Chicago in 1892, says:
Whenever extravagant expenditure
Of the peoples money is proposed, it is
almost always yelled under the pretext
that it is for the benefit of the State.
This is the plea which is being made
for the appropriation of $25O,OO0 for
the worlds fair, but as yet the advo-
Gates of this measure have failed to
substantiate their claims with sound
argument. To dogmatically assert
that the expenditure of this sum of
money will be a wise investment, does
not make it so. A deduction cannot
properly be made without being drawn
from sufficient premises. If any pre-
misses have been presented in this
matter they have thus far, escaped our
attention. The appropriation of $780,
600 means tax of 81 upon every adult
male in the State. On the same ratio,
New York would appropriate $4,25O,-
600; Pennsylvania, $3,750OO0; Illinois,
$2,S0O,OO0; Ohio, $2,7OO,OOO; and the
rest of the States in proportion. 1t
can be added that the wealth per cap
ita, in these old States, is greater than
in this developing commonwealth of
Washington and that consequently
New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois or
Ohio, could better afford to set aside
the amounts herein stated, than Wash
ington can appropriate the sum of
$250,0O0."
The COmmoner thinks that 100000
would be ample for fine exhibit of
Washington's resources and advanta-
ges, and that any more than this
would be reckless and improbable
waste of the public funds. True.

Little Lord Fauntleroy."

Considerable interest attaches to the
Forthcoming production in this city of
Mrs. Burnett's famous dramatic idyl,
Little Lord Fauntleroy," and expecta-
ton runs high anent the calibre of the
company that Mr.. French will send
here to interpret the beautiful lines,
the tender pathos and the characteris-
tic humoT of the talented authoress.
No play of modern times has made
so genuine and SO lasting success as
this simple little child-drama, and
Mrs. Burnett's name will go down to
posterity as the writer of the most
charming, simple and fascinating play
ever known in the history of the stage.
Cedric Errol-Little Lord Fauntleroy
into favor at once, and as
the play progresses the favor becomes
stronger, until it reaches its maximum
at the close of the play, and every
man, woman and child in the audience
goes away more than pleased. From
the moment when little Cedric runs
in flushed and out of breath with his
foot-race, interest is keen, and there is
not a dull moment in the performance.
Mrs. Burnett's masterpiece has an ex-
qulsite setting in its dramatic form,
and resembles her inimitable work in
that it goes straight to the heart at
every point in the play. There can
be no difference OF opinion on this
point. The simple story, acted so nat
urally and touchingly, never fails to
make an impression. 1t will be the
play that is to inaugurate the new
Olympia Theater, next Friday evening.

Negotiating for Confederate Records.

Postmaster General Wannamaker
has sent To the Senate the copy of a
letter of the Auditor OF his department
on further response to the resolution
of the Senate inquiring whether there
are records of the so-called confederate
government in the possession of pri-
vate parties, which would be of value
to the government in protecting it
against frauds in connection with
claims of mail contractors for services
rendered the Southern States during
the war. The Auditor says that con-
federate Fcqorls have been offered re-
Gently 10y firm of attorneys in New
York, Il partial examination OF which
shows that double payment has been
made in many cases. The price asked
for these records ($50,OOO), he says
may seem exorbitant, but he questions
the ACCESSIBILITY of the appropriation
of money to pay claims of this class,
unless these records are purchased, as
he has no doubt the great bulk OF
those claims have been paid by the So
called confederate government and
many by the United States also.

IT has been proposed that the DEM
ocratic party should at once reorganize
its National and Congressional COM
mittee for the next Presidential cam
paign, in order that the members elect
OF the Fifty-second Congress may be
represented thereon, and also that the
campaign OF education, by means of
tariff and other literature, may at once
be begun. 1t is a most timely sug-
gestion, and should be carried out at
the earliest practicable moment. The
value of through organization and
dissemination of sound Democratic
doctrine, through the party press
and by means of carefully prepared
pamphlets, cannot be over estimated.

A PENSION deficiency for the current
fiscal year of 1874, SOC, 900 has been re-
ported to the House of Representa-
tives 10y the Secretary of the Treasury.
The pension appropriation bill for the
next fiscal year, as passed by the
House, carries more than $133 600, 900,
and it is generally believed that it is
less by from forty to seventy millions
of dollars than will be required, unless
a careful revision is made of the pen
sion rolls of the Government. 1t is
believed that from 25 to "a per cent. of
the names on these rolls are there
illegally, and that careful investiga-
ton would show this beyond question.
We should not object to increasing
the pension of every deserving soldier
but not not one cent of the peoples
money should be paid to the undeserv-
ing, or should be paid on illegal claims.
By all means let us have a thorough
revision of the pension rolls.

The Play Of Plays.

The attraction at the Auditorium
next Saturday afternoon and evening
will be a play that has made for its
author and managers more money than
any other of modern times. 1t is one
out OF the usual order of dramatic ex-
ceptions and is exempt from the stiff
ness and stacy effect that usually char
acterizes dramatic productions. Every
thing is acted out as naturally as if the
observer were witnessing an occurrence
in real life. 1t is the justly celebrated
/" Little Lord Fontleroy," than which no
play OF recent years has made more
pronounced or lasting success.-Spo-
kane Falls Chronicle.

The Topic q the Week.

The report that the Un'on PAtIiit
management had given orders t. sns-
pend Y ~ .l Ia extension to Puget
So4nd caused quite depression IN
business circles tue past few days, H.
it was believed that the competitive
policy which had resulted i'll such
yig,-,a, work all along the line would
be followed hy one which would cen
ter conflicting interests and result III
a pruluu2-,! delay, ii nor Il virtual
abandonment oi the whole route. 1t
was thought that the late change III
the directorate OF the Union Pacific
and the apparently harmonious agree
ment OF lca,.ing lines had led to the
formation OF q gigantic railroad trust,
with Jay Gould at its Lad. This
would have been disastrous, even with
the prospect OF early resumption OF
work, for the public gooi depends
much less On the number OF routes
over which business passes than the
rivalry which establishes competitive
rates a.4;i ives 10 the industrial world
the best markets.
1t now seems to be an established
fact, however, that an agreement has
existed between the Great Northern
and the Union Pacific whereby both
cnm94...~. are bound SO firmly to
build the Puget Sound route that it
cannot be biOkcn. \ dispatch OF the
18th says that it was made with Mr.
Adams, Just before his retirement, and
provides that the Union Pacific is tC
build the road from Portland to Cen
tralia and the Great Northern from
that point to Seattle. Each company
is to give the other trackage over The
line in perpctuity. Enough work has
been done by the Union Pacific to vir
tually fulfill its part OF the contract
and the Great Northern may take tn,
uncompleted work and finish it.
A dispatch of still later date re
ceived at Tacoma from Vice Presiden
Lane, of the Union Pacific, states ex
plibitly that the suspension is onl.
temporary, and made in order to maxi
fell investigation of the affairs Q
the company.
If we are to form on opinion from
all the accounts given by those capa
bic OF forming true judgment ant
from facts that are known to all, it i
that the line will be completed mex
year and operated as an Independent
route,
