Bishop Graves At Meeker's Hall.

On Sunday, February 1st, the Epis-
copal Bishop of this diocese will con-
duct services at Meeker's Hall. Dr.
Graves was appointed to Nebraska from
Minneapolis, Mimi, where for many
years he had been rector of one Of the
leading churches. His reputation as a
public speaker and an earnest, wise
worker for good had preceded him, and
since his conservation as bishop of
western Nebraska he has shown mark
ed executive ability as well as eloquence
of the quiet convincing order in the
work of the church which has been ac-
complished and much begun under his
administration. 1t is TO be hoped that
he will be greeted by good congrega-
tion on the occasion of his visit to Nc
Cook, and all persons attending may be
assured that they will be amply reward
ed by the service and the sermon.

4 Sensible Suggestion.

Hastings, Neb., Jan. 24.-To the ed
itor of the Bee: The following taker
from the report Of the committee ap
pointed to draft bill for the relief oi
western sufferers, calls forth the su5se.
quent remarks to which trust you will
give your careful attention:
"The committee favored an appropri-
alton of not less than 100000, goods
to be purchased of Lincoln and Omaha
Wholesale houses"
Now, while we see the legislature in
tends doing noble work in assisting
the western sufferers-who are sufferers
indeed-they are overlooking one class
of people who need aid as much as any
one else, namely, the merchants. Mer-
chants as rule bought largely of win
ter goods in anticipation of severe
winter. AS we have been agreeably dis
appointed by the weather being unsea-
sonably fine the merchants have on hand
full stock of winter goods, which they
can i'll afford to carry and which they
would gladly sell at cost to obtain
money to meet their bills. Merchants
are failing almost daily in the drouth-
stricken country, being unable to meet
their bills on account of having to carry
these goods. Now | would suggest that
the money be sent to good men who are
on the grounds and can place it where
it is needed the most, buying the goods
from the home merchants instead of
Lincoln and Omaha jobbers. These
)obbers would get their share, just the
same, by receiving the money from the
merchants on past due bills and thus
have tendency to strengthen the credit
Of western merchants with the jobbing
houses they are dealing with. 1t is we'll
known that portion of the donations
already sent out nave fallen into hands
for which they were never intended.
One case in particular Was brought to
my notice this week, where certain
man who is holding about three hun
dred bushels of wheat for higher prices
got the lions share of lot that had
been received at the town near which he
resides. Let the legislature make this
money do all the good it can by putting
it in the largest circulation possible,
thus benefting not only the farmers but
all classes of people and give these
merchants who have carried these same
farmers year after year chance to
weather through what is bound to be
iull season. Eiseman & Co. of Council
Bluffs attribute their failure to the
warm winter and inability to sell heavy
goods which had to be carried in stock.
The western merchants are in the same
tx in regard to stocks of heavy goods.
Is the result to be the same? The leg
ature can assist them by following the
suggestion. Will they do it?
This is no idle talk. 1 have travelled in
his country several years and know
whereof l speak. TRAVELLING MAN.

Free Coinage of silver.

On the silver question Mr.. Dana said !:
'We have almost reached free coinage
already. The coinage of 4 800, 900 ounces
of silver month almost amounts to that.
The effect of free coinage will be to give
us silver currency. We are now on a
gold basis and gold is the standard. The
substitution of silver for gold, making
silver the currency, will raise the value
of gold to small premium. 1t was SO
in France few years ago. 1t was a
mere trifle, only one-fifth of one per
cent. 1 believe, but it was there. We
are now in that road and we have got to
travel it. This will make gold worth a
small premium over silver, and when
American importers buy goods abroad
they will have to pay the price, not in
silver, but in gold. That is, they will
pay premium, which will be that much
added to the import duties. Free coin
age, with our mint open to the world,
would increase this premium. A better
way would be to have free coinage of
American silver only. Otherwise all the
old teapots of the world would be brought
here to be turned into dollars
