TUESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1898.
RATES:
THE WEAK POINT.

Senator Harris struck the weak
point in the position Of the silver
men who are advocating repeal of
the Sherman act, and struck it with
telling force and effect. Senator
Voorhees, and Others like him, who are
favoring the repeal of the Sherman
act, arc bimetallists or silver men.
They hope and expect to follow the
repeal of this act with other legisla-
tion for the rehabilitation of silver;
yet they can only repeal it with the
assistance of men who will never un-
der any circumstances cast vote to
authorize the coinage of single sill
yer dollar. Senator Harris by dice.
ing certain questions to Sherm II,
brought this out clearly and strongly.
Senator Sherman declared his belief
that the coinage Of even $4,000, 900
of silver per month would be disas-
trous, and that he would oppose it.
The proposition, therefore, was to
sweep every vestige of law from un-
der the silver currency and leave it,
in the language of Senator Voorhees,,
supported by no word of legisla-
ton" and this without any assur-
ance that anything could be done in
the future to right the wrong. 1t
seems to us that this view of the case
ought to come home to every friend
of silver who is now supporting the
repeal of the Sherman act, and IT
ought to come home TO Mr.. Cleve.
land. He can settle the matter if he
will only make known to the Demo.
Gratis in the Senate some definite, rea.
sonable and satisfactory plan for sill,
yer coinage which he is willing to
support. Then let a Democratic eau
Gus agree upon a program and the
repeal of the Sherman act will follow
In an hour.

Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has
introduced another silver measure in
the Senate, as an amendment to the
bill repealling the purchase clause of
the Sherman law, that is rather novel
in its features. 1t provides for the
re enactment of the free-coinage act
of 1887 and the remission of 20 per
cent. of the tariff duties to the coun-
tries which receive American stan
dard dollars of the present weight
and fneness at par as legal tender

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by eonstitunal reme-
dies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lln
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t is entirely closed deafness is
the result; and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
cotarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

Muley Hassan, the sultan Of Moroc-
co, Knows that he is between two fires.
He has for years exercised but nom
inal authority over the Riff tri.,esmen
who are at the bottom of the present
trouble. In fact, the Ri1fans have sew
eral times defed his edicts and robbed
his more loyal subjects. That he is
now held responsible for their rebel
lon against Spain worries the grave
old potentate. Muley Hassan is fifty
f,ye years old and, as Arab and other
1Mohammedan chieftains go, not a bad
fellow. He learned long ago that Eu-
ropeaD diplomacy cuts worse than the
sword. OF late years he has obeyed the
suggestions of the foreign agents with
salacrity, although he was inclined to
kick against the priclSs when he was a
young man.
It is not generally known that the

raltar are right before the spectators
eyes Gibraltar itself, with its grand
Notifications and busy harbor, is in
plain view. The lighthouse is fine
and solid piece of masonry. It was
built by the government of Morocco at
the demand of the commercial ma
tions of Europe, The ten governments
interested in the Improvement contrib
ute fixed sum annually to keep it's
light burning, and the foreign diplo-
matte agents at Tangier form the
board of lighthouse supervisors. For
merly many vessels were wrecked on
the rocks along the Moroccon coast, to
the great delight and profit of the pi-
rates OF Tariffa, the town which gave
civilized nations an euphonious name
for the imposition Of import duties and
whose people We're for many century
the terror of seafaring men.
The degradation of the Moorish peo-
pie has become proverbial. They prac-
tice openly every vice known to the
calendar Of debauchery and crime.
The nation is made up of the Berbers,
the aborigines, who occupy the noun
famous districts; Arabs, descendants
of the tribes who conquered the coun-
try in the seventh century; the So
called Moors, who are really Arabs
with an admixture of Spanish blood;
Jews. who were refugees from Spain
and Portugal, and Soudanese negroes,
most Of whom were brought to the
country as slaves.
The degradation of womankind
throughout Morocco is simply revolt
ing. Women have no rights which
even the most brutal man is expected
to respect. In view of this facta story
which recently come from England is
decidedly romantic. From this narrative
it appears that the shereefa of Wazan
is an Englishwoman by birth. The
shereefs of Wazan have always been
the equals of the sultans in rank. Like
the temporal rulers they are supposed
to be descendants of AIohammed.
They live in Wazan, the holy city of
Morocco, and are almost adored by the
Mussulmaa world. The present
shereef is 1nulatto, a fellow of good
education and progressive ideas.
While visiting the city of Tangicr
many years ago he met Miss Emily
Kecne, governess in the family of the
British minister. To see Miss Emily
was to love her. In due time the holy
man proposed to her and was accepted,
the only proviso being that he should
never marry another woman. If he
broke this agreement he was to give
her the children and 900 cash and
an annual allowance of $4,000. To
this the lover agreed with readiness
and Miss Keene became the shereefa
Of Wazan. Two sons were born to
them, and they lived happily until q
duslzy Moorish maiden caught the
shereef's fancy. The English wife
objected to the introduction of rival

educated them thoroughly. Both OF
tho young men are fervid Mohammed-
ans, and the mother is now hard at
work to secure the succession of the
shereefate for her frst-born.
But pleasant little international
episodes like this have nothing to do
with the settlement of war claims.
and, for time at least, the eyes of the
world must be conferred on the capitals
of Europe to arrive at clear under.
standing of the Moorish question.
After that we may again muse over
Emily Keene's queer matrimonial
venture. G. w. WEIPPIERr.

Land of Flowers. TO most Northerners,
Florid. suggests only refuge for invalids
and consumptlves, or place whence comes
oranges and other semi-trOpic fruits. The
state, however. has something Of a history.
Where Ponce de Leon landed was founded
st. Augustine, the oldest settled town in
the United States. and now 8 famous win
ter resort. In 1868 Florida was ceded by
Spain to Great Britain, in exchange or as
ransom for Cuba, on which the British lion
had laid its paw. In 17S3. at the close Of
our Revolutionary war, England coded the
territory back TO Spain. probably not desr-
Ing possession surrounded by the rebel
lious coionies In 1919 Spain ceded Florida
to the United States, and she was admitted
to the Union in 1915. Since the war of the

much Northern Cap tai invested and great
improvement manifested. If intending 10

A person who has been a chronic victim
Of constipation, is to be congratulated upon
the adoption of Hostetter's Stomac Bitters
as means Of freeing his bowels from the
bondage of this tyrannous disease. This
iberating medicine does its work naturally,
without gripping, as violent purgatives do.
Use it to throw off the shackles Of malaria,
dyspepsia, rheumatism and biliousness.
