Silver Decentralization.

When silver was demonetized it was
at a premium over gold. It was de-
monetized by the preparation of a
fraud about which no man, except
John Sherman and the clerks of the
finance committees and engrossing
clerks of congress, know anything.
Yet while such is the fact, how strange
it is that an effort to restore silver to
the same position it occupied at
the time of the preparation Of
this fraud should meet such vio-
lent opposition! How strange it is
that such great calamities are
ascribed to return to the same happy
condition, when no calamitles existed;
but, on the contrary, most satisfac-
tory condition obtained! Fustian and
theory have run wild in their efforts to
conjure up and invent impending disas-
tiers, when absolute demonstration and
experience show that all their appre-
tensions are as baseless as the fabric
of dream and as hollow as John Sher-
mans soul of an honest prompting in
behalf of the people. -Alliance Herald

Why the Bosses Sweat.

We hear good deal about people
sweating blood nowadays. The only
people we have seen doing this are the
political leaders of the two parties in
this country. They are sweating, first,
because they fear that they will lose
their places; second, because they fear
that honest men will get hold of the
reins of government; third, because
their willy political schemes are being
laid bare. The tricks by which they
have kept the people of this country
divided for twenty-five years are no
longer available. Revolution is in the
hearts Of the great common people.
That is why the bosses are sweating
blood. Raleigh IN. c. Progressive

Got in Their Work.

The rings and the rascals got in
their work Tuesday on the Tennessee
house of representatives The refusal
of that body to abolish the barbarous
convict-lease system is distinct victory
for the beneficiaries of that villaincus
law. It was expected, however, and
nothing is now left for it except that
good men shall organize for CAM
paign of education and an appeal to

A Gold Basis.

Secretary Foster recently made a
statement that if he found it necessary
he would sell bonds to keep the coun-
try on gold basis. This, it is expect
ed. will have reassuring effect on
lenders and influence time money gen

That is to say that Mr.. Foster will
give the peoples note, payable, princi-
pal and interest, in gold, to get gold to
meet the nations expenses Why not
pay those expenses in legal tender
paper money and let the gold-bugs
keep their gold? It is his turn just
now. but it will not be long until the
people will have chance to deposit
their ballots to get the country off

lower rate OF interest it would not only
help them but all future posterity.
The alliance intends to have both
more money and lower interest.
Mr.. Wheeler quotes Senator Stewart
as follows: 1.-THE government does not
buy gold; it coins it for the owners of
the bullion to furnish money for the
people" Commenting upon Senator
Stewards statement Mr.. Wheeler says:
Suppose silver was coined in the same
manner, what would it be worth? Sim
ply what the law of supply and demand
would fix upon it in gold, and the price
of coined silver would fucuate in the
market the same as silver bullion does
to-day" Here Mr.. Wheeler is wrong,
radically, eternally wrong. And not
only is he wrong, but he acknowledges
that he is wrong in his remarks con-

Gold is now and silver would be, were
it accorded free coinage, governed by
the following fixed, fundamental and
immutable law, to-wit: When a metal
is used for money and the total supply
of such metal is annually consumed for
use in the arts, etc., and coined into
money, the whole of such annual sup
ply takes to itself the money value af-
fixed by law to the portion coined into
money, and the commodity value be-
comes merged into the money value.
Mr.. Wheeler can, perhaps, understand
this by asking himself this question:
Would not man be fool to take less
than one dollar for such metal as by
taking to the mint he can get coined
into dollar? Under free coinage every
ounce of silver would at once take to

public. This was "Philomel" by Panscr-

birds and green fields and running waters.
and Miss Ilowp's Interpretation va as de
lightful as the melody itself. The Swiss
Echo Song was given as AN encore to
this. For her last number Braga's Angel
Serenade' was on the program. but at the
earnest request of yeneratrd friend. the
Ave Maria. so well remembered by all
her BrattlehOrO hearers. was substituted
for it. and was given with an uplifting fer

audience. and which at the close was ac-

SIDEWALK BICYCLE RIDING.

There has been talk of late about pro
hibiting bicycle riding ON the sidewalks.
The Wheel club. at a meeting Tuesday
evening. adopted the following resolutions,
which show the true gentlemanly spirit in
regard to the matter:
We notice with regret that wbeeImen have in
some instances abused the privilege of sidewalk
riding hence resolve that we disaDDrovp of
sidewalk riding where the 81 1T, of the roads viii
permit riding there We disapprovt, at all times
Of IA bid riding ON the 81 lewalks. We d'sapprove
of sidewalk riding after dark. We fully apprac
ate the fact that it is mcst important that we re-
tam the privilege Of .-iling hills and past bad
places IN the roads. ON the sidewalks. hence we
urge upon all wheelmrn the importance of care
fully avoiding all actions which shall in any way
offend pedestrians We have learned with regret
that IN a few instances wheelmen have come into
collision with pedestrians and that no suitable
apology has been made,
We do not believe that Wheel club MEM
bers have transgressed their privileges. Ii
is the younger riders who have been at
fault, and some of them have been verita-
bic hogs, acting as if the walks were made
for their especial benefit. One case was
noticed Sunday, when rider deliberately
turned upon the sidewalk in front of four
persons, compelling them all to get ont of
his way or suffer a collision. On Wednes-
day young rider was seen coming up the
Main street hill on the west side He was
riding rapidly, and several persons. incud-
ing women, were on the sidewalk at that
time. Acts like these arouse the righteous
indignation of pedestrians and do much To
bring bicyclists into disrepute. The Offend
ers should be disciplined, but all riders
should not be judged by the acts of few.
