Danger Ahead.

The Harrison goldbug speakers
should be called upon at every meet
ing to explain the probable effect up
on silver, should the pending Harri :
son~Sherman bill to repeal the pur-
chasing clause of the present law be
passed the coming winter.
1t is Senator Wclcott's opinion
that in that event silver would drop
to 90 cents an ounce. Some high
financial authorities put the drop at
40 cents,
It's the imminent danger that
now confronts the mining industry,
and if it is averted its defeat will be
due to the independent free coinage
movement of this year and its in
Auence upon the present congress.
This vital point is carefully with>
held from the readers of .he treach-
erous goldbug press. Make the
Harrison advocates talk about it.
Senator Shermon is President Har~
rison's financial adviser and the in
ference is clear that the bill reflects
Mr.. Harrison's views. The Harri-
SON and Cleveland papers east of the
Mississippi unite in demanding its
prompt enactment when congress
assemblies. Should it pass there is
not five silver mines in Colorado that
could be run at a profit. Rocky

A SIMPLE NATTER.

It would be very simple matter
for Nominee Meyers to state over
his signature whether or not he ever
said dollar and half a day was
enough for workingman. and that
the nose of the poor should always
be kept on the grind stone.
These charges have been common
street talk for weeks. The APPEAL
is not willing to do an injustice to
any man and if these charges are I'M
true it will cheerfully make public
Mr. Meyers denial.
II the report has been maliciously
circulated, he ought to be set right.
\ denial over his signature would
be sufficient as Mr.. Meyers is a man
whose word in tn community would
be believed.

Stewart at Hobart.

On Tu sday evening Senator Stew
art and Hon. Hirsh Harris spoke at
Hobart. There was large audience
of men from the neighboring logging
camps. They built an immense bon
fire and the Douglas county brass
band made the woods echo with
splendid E.usic.
Senator Stewart spoke over an
hour, but soon discovered that he
was throwing away his time, as his
audience was all silver anyhow and
the sentiment in Douglas is fast
growing for the white metal.
