GOV. mnI,s .Innmous Conduct"

T. rom the New ORR tribune
Any infamous acts designed to deprive
the people of New York of their free choice
for president and vice president would be
so resented in other states that the party
resorting to them would not gain anything
Senator Hill recognises this in published
interview, and declares that Democratic
leaders have no intention of attempting to
appoint electors by the stolen legislature
The electoral vote of New York, whether
stolen or otherwise obtained by the Demo
Gratis, will not make the next president.
1t has been perceived for months by the
capable men of both parties that New Y York,
New Jersey and Connecticut, with the en-
tire South could not elect a president if
the other Northern states should vote
against them. Recent events make ii clear
that the vote of Connecticut is not certain.
Any fraud or attempted fraud in this state
will make a hostile vote in other states
more probable. 1t was questionable before
whether Democrats could carry enough
Northern states to succeed. The infamous
conduct of Hill and his tools has made it
still more doubtful.

Warren f. Spalding', article in the Fo-
rum throws some light on the good old
days over whose departure the pessimists
ululatc 50 vociferously. He shows that
during % years before the war the prison
population i'm Massachusetts, more than
! trebled, while the entire population in
creased only - per cent. And while the
increase in crime during those years was
more than 10 per cent, the increase in the
20 years from 1861 to 1890 has been only
little over l0per cent, the proportion of Sc
rious offences being very much smaller.
One OF the most pleasing calendars of

tiful new building which has been in pro-
cess of erection for more than a year Edst
as a permanent home for the Companion,
and which will be ready for occupation
! April /. The new building is of classic
elegancy and simplicity Of design. 1t oc-
cupies a prominent site near the business
centre of Boston, and it will be fitting
| place from which to issue the paper which
reaches more of the homes of the people
than any other publication in this country.

number of los pages with a very large num-

a brief sketch of the magazine and pOr-

several pages, this article is itself monu-
ment to the wonderful development of our
greatest industry, and the illustrations of

the marvellous progress in farm machinery.

The Grip Germ as Revealed by FLASH
light Negative.

DR.. Robert l.. Watkins, a leading phvsi-
clan of New York, has at last succeeded
in obtaining an excellent micro fashlight
negative of the grip germ after it had been
absorbed into the blood through the mIl-
cOus membrane of the nasal organs. The
grip germ was photographed under the
power of magnifying lenses of 1000 mag
nitudes, the flashlight having the briliancy
of the ordinary incandescent light. The
color of the germ as seen through the lens
was white. Its sides and tibrOus surface
were covered with white hairs-so fine that
they could hardly be observed in the original
micrO-photograph The germ body seemed
to be undergoing constant changes and in
the meantime to rotate rapidly, having for
an axis the adjacent healthy blood corpus
cles. a germ was subsequently taken, in
stead of from the blood, from the catarrhal
discharge of patient under the treatment
of DIR. Watkins, and the same conditions
as stated above We're noticed. He had
been afflicted four days with the grip.
The successful examination of the germ
under the microscope, aided by the flash
light, proves cOnclusvely, it is said, that
the germ attacks rather the blood than the
mucous membrane, as in influenza, and
that the pain experienced i'm the various
stages of the disease is caused by the won
derful activity of its minute body.

novice. He has travelled Europe,
England, Ireland and Scotland in
his study of conditions and causes.
In the east no speaker or writer is

clear-cutslogic was one of the chief
factors in bringing.the reform move

The Eagle and Free silver.

The Eagle anu free SIlSeT'
3 The Garnett Eagle Of the | lth con-
tains a somewhat lengthy editorial
on "Free Silver" 1t resorts to the
usual subterfuge and misrepresenta-
ton of other opponents of free
silver. For the sake of brevity, we
shall endeavor to give the general
line Of argument, which is that
legislation will not keep gold and
silver at par, if the production OF
one metal is greater than the other
metal, expressed as follows:
Unless the coin of the two metals
are equal in value, they will not
both keep in circulation. *ea* <
..But since the seventies the
great production of silver has made
the disparity between gold and
silver unprecedented in the history
Of the world And it is further
claimed that silver dollar is only
worth sixty-five cents, and that free
coinage is dishonest, with an appeal
to churches and schools, and other
good people, to prevent free coin
ace. The editor assumes that gold
and silver bullion are money, when,
in fact, not even gold is money un-
til it is made so by legislation, and
not then until it has been coined:
The same of silver. Gold and sill
yer bullion have a commercial value
and CO image value. The CONNER
cial value is the price put upon the
the metals by the spectators. The
coinage value is the value placed
upon it because Of the use OF the
metals for money purposes; or, the
the coinage value is fiat. =
To prove our assertion, that value
is added to gold and silver because
the metals are used as money, we
have only to say that, if the nations
were to demonetize gold and silver,
both metals would decline at least
one-half, and their price would be
governed by cost of production, and
their demand for the arts and man
ufacturers Now if congress can
make money at all, it has power to
make any kind of money, and if all
kinds of money made by cOngrass
does not circulate at par with every
other kind of money, it is the fault
of congress, and not-the fault of the
material used. Congress can, con

silver bullion, it issclaimed, is worth
only "sixty-nine cents. " The cry
of q "sixty-ninecent dollar" is the
cry Of the thief, and is preparatory
to getting away with lot more O
the peoples wealth. We charge
dishonesty, deep and damnin g, upor

The charge Of dishonesty is on
other shoulders than that of the
people who want free coinage
Wall street and congress are the
thieves. The howl Of the Eagle is
in line with Wall street, John Sher:
man, President Harrison, Ex-Presi,
dent Cleveland, Jew Harter and the
plutocratic press, from the Century
magazine down to, the country

mouth-piece. That man is void OF
common sense who believes that the
owners Of gold are, more honest
than the common people, and like
wise, that man is void of common
sense who does not believe that he
can pay debt and taxes, and make
exchanges with any dollar that con-
gress has declared is legal tender
for all debts, public and private;
and likewise that man is void OF
common sense who believes that
plenty of legal tender money will
injure the laboring people. All the
howl of "cheap money and "dcpre-
ciated money" comes from Wall
street, and we know enough of the
past to know that all Wall street
cares for the working people is to
rob them. If cheap money would
injure the working classes, be sure
Wall street would be silent as the
grave. The cry of "stop, thief -
comes from the wrong source, and
gives the real thief away. We
challenge the Eagle, or any other
bird of prey, to prove that silver
dollar, made legal tender for al
debts, public and private, can be
deprecated a single cent, or that il
will not pay one hundred cents o
debt. Hea .nfa

money, and tits this discrimination
that makes the difference in the
purchasing power of money. Con-
gress has, since ] S62, been creating
two or three kinds of money. One
kind of money paid all kinds of
debts, and settled all kind Of obliga-
TONS The other Kind, or kinds, of
money would only settle obliga-
tions in part. 1t is needless to say
that the discrimination wasin favor
of gold, the scarce metal; in favor
of the rich man and against the
poor man; in favor Of capital and
against labor. AS illustrations of
the effect that discrimination in
money has upon nation, we have
ONLY to cite our readers to the ex
ception clause placed upon the
greenback in 1862, and the treasury
notes that did not contain an eXcep-
ton clause. The treasury notes
being legal tender for all debts,
public and private, always circulat-
ed at par with gold The green
back that was not receivable in
payment of duties on imports failed
to circulate at par with gold coin,
because congress had failed to
clothe it with the perfect powers of
money. The greenback money
paid the soldier, paid the fees and
salaries Of officers, national and
state, paid taxes, and effected the
exchange of all articles of merchan-
disc; but at one time, it took two
dollars and osixty-eight cents Of
