always has been, in favor Of the free and
unlimited coinage Of silver. That the
republican party Of Colorado calls attsn-
tlon TO the fact that lts senator's and rep
resentstlves have Rt all times worked
for and advocated free coinage. We, az
free coinage republicans, believe that we
can establish Etrue republlcanism much
sooner by keeping within the party than
by supporting any fat money theorists
who are In favor Of the demonstration
Of both gold and silver. That the re-
publican party Of Colorado believes free
coinage Of silver at the present ratio
would be of great benefit to all the pro-

All Against Jerry.

Wichita Beacon.
The very fact that every republican
newspaper, not only In Kansas, but In
the entire west, is training its gun on
Jerry Simpson, ought TO convince every
democrat and Peoples party man In the
big Seventh that Mr.. Simpson 10 the
proper man 10 represent them In con-
gresg.
An honest farmer who occupied his
spare moments in studying the financial
history Of his country, he has gained 3
national reputation. His keen logic has
exasperated the plutOcrats and they will
leave nothing undons to defeat the cOuE-
ageouS defender Of western lnterestS..
What will the election Of Chester l.
Long mean? It will mean q vote for
eastern monopollsts instead Of Jerry
Simpsons voice and vote In congress- Cor
the producers Of Kansas and the great
Mississippi valley as well.
Chester l. Long will vote for high
tariff which the west must pay. He will
vote against the free coinage of silver /,
thereby increasing the value Of every
mortgage held against Kansas homes and
depreclatlng the selling price Of every
acre Of Kansas land and Kansas pro-
ducts. The election OF Long and the de-
feat Of Simpson would be victory for the
eastern plutocrats and defeat FOR every
laboElng man In the Seventh district.

4 Lesson for Father and Sons.

Ebenezer Webster, Daniel Webster's
father, a sturdy New Hampshire
farmer and miller Of the last century,
was one Of those intelligent and CELL
Crons parents whose most cherished pur-
pose is to give Their children a better
education than they have enjoyed them
selves. Every one was poor then III
the northern part of New Hampshire;
there were but few books, and none
but the district schools; and, there
fore, all the latter years of Ebenezer
Websters life were a severe struggle
to accomplish this purpose. Daniel
Webster relates i'll one of his letters,
an affecting conversation occurring
one hot day in July, 1892, in the
bayfield,, between bis father and
himself, when he was about ten
years old. A member of congress came
out to the bayfield, to see Captain
Webster-he was called captain from
his having commanded company in
the Revolutionary War-and, when the
member had left, the old man called
the boy to him and they sat down on
a hay-cot together under an elm tree.

proud but uneducated man, my son,

work for you, and wear our hands out,
and you shall rest"
My child said the father, 'it is

The ten-year-old little Daniel threw
himself on his fathers breast, and as
he sobbed aloud, he registered a VOW
deep in his heart that he would never
idle away a moment that could be de-
voted to study. IL 1896, wheE Daniel
was fourteen years old, his father, who
had been made county judge, at q
salary Of fourteen hundred dollars
year. was able to send him to the
famous academy at Exeter, n. III.
When h. had been at school q few
months, and was at home for the va

Search was made for her in every

perplexity and dismay We're caused
by her disappearance. 1t was not till
years after, when chance led to the
opening of the chest, that the body
Of the young bride was discovered
and the mystery Of her disappearance

The story is found in so many places
that it may be questioned, says the
COrnhin Magazine, whether it is true
of any one of them. Rogers tells it of
in MOdena. The chest in which the
