WIPES KNEW THEIR VALUE.
A Newsboy Who Would Only Accept Fiv
Cents for Saving Six Lives

A Newsboy Who Would Only Accept Five
Cents for Saving Six Lives.
Human life is dull and in small de-
mand-spot cash, five-sixths of a cent
each PERSONAL Belden Point, on CITY
island. These figures are the result of
the sad experience of Edward Gallagher,
of New York. Edward is a newsbov,
sometimes called ''Swipes the News
boy" as a compliment to his ability
He is not the original "Swipes." Ed
ward is sixteen years old, black-eyed
brown-haired and small. What his
muscular dev ,lopment lacks in quantity
it more than makes up in quality. He
sold big armful of newspapers be-
tween this city and City island Monday
afternoon and then went rowing near
Belden Point Four men and two wom-
en- who had sailed up from Greenpoint
in the small sloop Agnes went in bath
ing at half-past six o'clock, SO ''Swipes'
says. Three of the men and the women
presently got into the skiff and padded
out into the sound, followed leisurely
by the fourth man, who swan. Two
hundred yards from the shore he grew
tired, tried to climb into the Skiff over
the side instead of the stern and upset
it. ''Swipes' said he rowed fiercely to
the rescue and saved them all.
''They made me weary" he confided
to a New York Herald man. "When l
began taking them in all the men could
say was: We're all lost!' Soon's got
'em ashore one says: Johnny, that was
great work you done. I'm going to take
up election
"He passed the hat and raised thirty
cents out of all their clothes. When he
give it to me he says: You're only a
boy, you KNOW an gave him back his
quarter an says: Yes, an amt goin'
to overcharge you. The hull gang Of
yer amt wort more'n fi'pence.' Then I
skipped"
But will not some society or some
kind individual give ''Swipes'' medal?

fine solid ore body there disclosed. 1t is
the intention to continue it to the 500
foot level. The raise some time ago be-
gun from this level and extended up-
ward along the foot wall of the vein has
now reached a height OF 275 feet. 1t
will be continued to the surface. After
wards, at short intervals, this immense
ore chute will be crosscut to determine
it's width. When that is done, the lucky
holders Of the stock of this company will
for the first time be able to obtain a fair
knowledge Of the extent of the ore body
disclosed to a depth of 700 feet of this
enormous deposit. When this stope
reached a distance of $50 feet from where
it was begun, a drift was run seventy
three and a half feet to connect with the
station on the 250-foot level of the old
shaft. The whole distance, it was driven
through a continuous mass of high grade
hard carbonates. In the few instances
wherever this ore body has been pros
pected, the same results have been OBJ
tanned.
The pump brought from the Bond
holder last week is now in place on the
500 foot level. Its capacity is about 400
gallons per minute.
One of the chief owners of the Legal
Tender, V. j. Mcpherson, was in town
that work will shortly be resumed in
that mine. The ore disclosures in hat
property are exceedingly fine. With lit
tie labor a large amount Of ore is capable
Of being obtained for shipment.

Mr. Newlands' Address to the House
Committee or Coinage, Weights
and Measures.
He Explains Why European Countries
are Opposed TO Free Silver
Coinage.
Governor Boyd Takes the Office So
Long WrOngfully Withheld
From Him.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. Francis &. New
lands today addressed the house com
mittce on coinage, weights and measures
on the international monetary confer
ence phase Of the silver question OPP
posing the proposition. He reviewed
the history of the silver question and
then went on to show why the United
States should adopt free silver coinage
now and why nothing could be expected
Of Europe. All persons realized that
this was an age Of combines" and
trusts. The gold nations were creditor
nations. Those nations needed little de
velopmcnt and hence their accumula-
tons were invested in the development
of other countries. AS owners of money
it was to their interest to make money
valuable. The only way to do this was
by limiting its quantity. The easiest
way to do SO was by forming a gold trust
to prevent future silver coinage and to
destroy the legal tender quality of eX-
listing silver money. Gold was being
diminished every day by the demands of
the arts and dentistry and it was held
that the store Of gold coin was being
invaded to meet these demands. The
annual product of silver was increasing
slightly. The creditor nations therefore
secured great advantage by dcmOnctizing
silver and thus increasing the burden
of obligations to them. We were
Il wealthy nation in everything except
money. England's wealth was princi-
pally in money. We utilized all the
money we could borrow and owed to
Europe in national, state, municipal, and
railway debts more than the entire vol.
umc Of money existing in this country.
Whenever anything occurred in Europe
which frightened their money market
they called on us to buy our obligations
and we we're Obliged to absorb them. for
unless those obligations were sustained
there would be again a destruction Of
values.

Losing faith In popular government,

The above named we'll known Peoples
party orator, whose portrait appears on
the first page, lS one Of the most con-
vincipg and eloquent speakers in the re-
form movement. Thoroughly posted on
all the economic questions of the day, he
makes his arguments unanSwerable. He
began his public work as q speaker and
organizer in 18S7,-thorOughly covering
the field In Kingman and adjoining coun-
ties. In view Of his successful and
efficient work, the "big Seventh" nomi-
mated him for congress in 1888, and In
the face Of large republican majority,
with his district unorgSnized except in
six counties, he undauntedly set to work,
and bearing his own expenses, canvassed
and organized every county in the dis
trict The result Of that campaign Of
education In which he made over q hun
dred speeches was the foundation of q
movement which gave US Hon. Jerry
Simpson for congress In 1890.
Mr. Snider has been unanimously
elected national lecturer Of the citizens
alliance ever since the foundation Of that
organization. He took an active part in
the campaign Of 1890, and last year in the
campaigns Of the south and east. He
had charge of the arrangements for the
St. Louis conference, February q, 1892,
and was elected as q member of the ma

cEHtS and Peoples party men. In the

Scott vs.. MCMlliu.

Joint Discussion Between Them at New Mid
dletOn, Tenn.
10 the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE,
On yesterday 8. M. Scott, ofyour state,
met Tennesgee's most famous congress
man, she Hon. Benton McMlllin, and
must confess that Kansas won the lau'
PelS. The contest had been looked for
ward 10 by the community for some days
with great interest. Scott opened the
discussion with q compact and logical
speech ON the principles Of the Peoples
party, Of an hours length, not forgetting
10 show up the sins Of the democratic
leaders. His speech was like we'll
built fortress founded on q solid rock.
When his opponent rose he began his
attack, but it was like pitching strawS at
Gibralter. In fact, he found his own
armor 30 full OF holes that he spent most
OF his time defending his own party.
Some parts Of the old party were 30
badly used up that all defense Of them
was abandoned. It's present position on
silver, national banks and income tax,
wer0 left wholly defenseless. The tar
l1f reform idea was magniaed, and many
excuses made for the sxtravagsnce and
Incompstency Of the democracy.
But it was In SCOTS reply that he
SYInced his power in debate. He had
not spoken dDzen sentences until Ten
nessoe's John L. Sullivan was slugged by
the Kansas Corbett, and the house was
in an upEoar Of applause. A stunning
ElRht-hander was scarcely landed home
when the left followed It up in the short
ribs, and the same repeated with such
rSpidlty that all stood in wonder ut the
intellectual pugillst. This was kept up
until more than enough to determine the
victory In favor Of the KansSn had been
cent home TO the most vulnerable spots
Of his adversary. Some Of those present
say they never saw a more complete VIC
tory since the dawn of their existence.
The Peoples party here are much
pleased at the victory won for them by
the Kansas orator. He Is q special favor
Ito with us. He is debater Of great
power. His GOODNESS, dignity and In
exhGustlble good humor, together with
his thorough understanding Of the queS.
tlonB at issue, make him almost lnvinci-
bic. Long may he live 10 do battle for
the glorious cause. A. HEARER.
