What then does Mr. Gladstone mean by the
statement above quoted? The Platform. he
says, has been on side. the Press on
the other, in this Irish struggle ana ne
draws the conclusion that the Platform at
IFS maximum of power must be stronger Than
the Press. Why? Because there have been a
hundred byeelcctOns and "a balance OF no less
than twenty seats have been carried over for the
side supported by the Press to that espouscd by
the Platform" The conclusion would hardly
follow even were the premises correct. Nor is
il even clear that the Platform has been 90 pre-

The FARMERS SIDE.
"Where we are, hOw we got here,
and the Way out.
BY Hon. w. A. PETER,
U.s. SENATOR FROM KANSAS.
1amo, cloth Price, 61.0O.

There is demand for comprehensive and
authoritative book which shall represent the
farmer, and set forth his condition, the infu-
ences surrounding him, and plans and prospects
for the future. This book has been written by
Hon. W. A. PETER, who was elected to the
United States Senate from Kansas to succeed
Senator Ingalls,. The title is THE FARMER's
SIDE, and this indicates the purpose of the work.
In the earlier chapters, Senator PETER de-
scEibes the condition of the farmer in various
parts of the country, and compares it with the
condition of men in other callings. He carefully
ex amines the cost of labor, of living, the prices
of crops, taxes mortgages, and rates of interest.
He gives elaborate tables showing the increase
of wealth in railroads, manufactures, banking,
end other forms of business, and he compares
this with the earnings of the farmer, and also
wage-workers in general. In clear, forcible
style, with abundant citations of facts and fig
ures, the author tells how the farmer reached
| his present unsatisfactory condition. Then fol-
lows an elaborate discussion of " The Way out, !"
which is the fullest and most authoritative pres
I entation of the aims and views of the Farmers'
Alliance that has been published, including full
] discussions of the currency, the questions Of
| interest and mortgages, railroads, the sale Of
! crops, and other matters of vital consequence
This book is the only one which attempts to
cover the whole ground, and it is unnecessary
| to emphasize its value. 1t is a compendium Of
the facts, figures, and suggestic17s 'snich the
farmer ought to have at hand.
| The farmers SIDE has just been issued,
1 and makes q handsome and substantial book
| of $50 pages. We have arranged with the pub
/ fishers for its sale to our readers at the pub
| lishers' price. The book may be obtained at
our office, or we will forward copies to any
address, postpaid, on receipt Of $l.oo per copy.

Do You Want Gold!

Cripple Creek is not a health resort.
1t is wealth resort. Quite difference.
Location, near Pixies Peak, in Colora-
do. Gold, bright. yellow gold, is found
st grass roots and in the rock forma-
ton.
Reliable experts claim this to be the
richest camp in Colorado. Assays av-
erage 500 per ton, and have run as high
as 5000. One hundred people day
are now rushing to Fremont. chief town
of the district. The chance of life
time is worth looking after.
You can get there quickly and COM
fortably by taking the Santa Fe route.
Only line with no change of cars from
Chicago, Kansas City and other princi-
pal cities to Florissant, nearest railroad
station, with daily stages to Fremont.
Inquire of local ticket agent, Santa Fe
route about rates and service.

SILVER AND GOLD.
silver Was the Dearer Metal Until De.
mOnetized in 1873.

silver Was the Dearer Metal Until De-
mOnetized in 1873.
We are determined to force this sill
yer question even at the risk of firing
our readers. The gold standard bust
ness Is simply plutocratic arrange.
ment for the purpose of controlling
money and values in the interest of
the plutocrats and against the inter
ests of the people, ard that is all there
is to it.
They argue that we must not have
free coinage of silver because silver
is a cheaper metal than gold, and sill
yer money would therefore be dis
honest money. When did silver be-
come cheaper than gold? In 1892.
congress delared that 37l.25 grains Of
pure silver should be legal dollar
and the standard Of values, Tho same
act declared that ID rs grains of pure
gold should be dollar and equal in
value to the standard silver dollar.
But gold huctuated in value, and in
1884 congress declared that 90. 20 grains
of pure gold should be equal to the
standard silver dollar. Gold still fiuc-
tuated. and in 1887 congress declared
be equal to the standard silver dollar.
Thus these several values have been
put upon gold, while silver remained
as Interchangeable as the laws of the
Modes and Persians Gold continued
to fluctuate, and in 1873 the metal in
the gold dollar was worth three per
cent. less than the silver dollar, or, in
other words, the silver dollar was at a
premium of three per cent over gold.
Do you doubt it? Read on page II of
Comptroller KnoX's elaborate report on
that subject:
THE coinage of the silver dollar, the
history of which is here given, is dis.
continued in the proposed bill. 1t is
by law the dollar unit, and assuming
the value of gold to be 1535 times that
of silver, being about the same mean
ratio for the past six years, is worth il
gold premium of about three rer cent
its value being S! 03l2.'
The gold-bugs had tried so long tx
keep their metal up with silver anC
failed, that they now conceived tn,
! plan, aided by England, which haC
done the same thing three years before
of knocking silver out of COLDS way
and while the people were asleep the,
did it Now they howl ''cheap metal,
dishonest money!
We don't care cent about your meta
money, but we want money, ana w,
want good money. money that will Sc
the idle to work, feed tho hungry, an.
save the mortgaged homes to the PEG
pie But we don't ask government o
anybody else to give the people money
We simply demand that they shall hav
chance to earn it, and be permitte,
to have the benefit of what they earn
