reckoning easily adjusted to meet the
present financial disturbance caused by
the opposition to free silver coinage

meet the urgent demand of the country,
but my idea is to liquidatc debts in the
cheape currency and eat hash where
1t is kept warm at reasonable prices.
This accounts for my not speaking more
at length than | did last week of the

well qualified to entertain the travelling
public.

guide and food and fire and here you
will find the bill filed at reasonable
charges.
