The following is IN able letter writ

editor of the New Yerk Weekly Wit
ness, paper of large circulation. on
the financial question.
To the editor. | deeply regret to see
the editorial page of the dear old
Witness week after week marred BY
Il demand for Il single gold standard
and defense of wall street gol :
bugs and the British capitalists. y
From 1867 to 1873 the ratio of
silver to one of gold fiuctuated be-
tween l4.14 in 1870, the lowest point
and 1892 in 1873, the highest point.
Thus showing that silver varied but
very little in value until it was un
justify and trcacherously demonc-
tized by congress in 1873. That this
infamous legislation was secured
through the influence OF Wall street
yoldbugs und British capitalists l
have not the slightest doubt. The
result was to increase the ratio of
silver to gold from l6.l7 in lS7+, to
22.1oin 1889. In Other w5rds, by
this one act the financial yardstick
was heightened from three to, abou,
five feet. and placed in the hands Of
Wall street goldbugs AND British
capitalists, with which the measure
al! values Except gold) TODAY.
WHEN TINES WERE pR0oGRous.
The average home market price
for wheat in 1872 was $125 pei
bushel. So far this year the average
has been not to exceed 65 cents
Oats in 1873, 81 cents; now % cents,
Barley in 1873, 81 cents; now +(
cents. Cows IN 1872, $33; now So
While, cotton, wool and farm lands
have gone down in about the same
ratio.
Thus it will be seen that under the
influence of this Wall street yart
stick it now requires nearly twice ~

LAWN PARTY YESTERDAY.
The Young Ladies of Trinity Church En-
terrain Their Friends.

A pleasant lawn party in Carr's park
was given last evening by the young
ladies Of Trinity church to further in
crease the light fund which is not grow
ins so rapidly as could be wished in these
dull days of slack trade and financial de.
preston. But the girls proposed to
make a showing, and in the entire cata
logue of money making schemes for the
furtherance OF christianity or sweet
charity's sake, nothing seemed to pan
out so we'll or offer so much that was
really enjoyable as the ever popular and
always pleasant lawn party.
And accordingly they arranged their
tables, hung their lanterns and invited
all who would to join them.
Among the chief movers in the enter
prise we're: Misses Sallie and Mary Hen
derson, Evelyn Edwards, Lora and Ivy
Lyon, Lille Parrish, Rose Budd, Lenora
Barham, Alma and Halle Cozart, Blanche
Briggs and Addie Reed. Mrs. DR.. Carr
acted as chaperon, and Miss Gena Row
land, while not a member of the Trinity
congregation, assisted the young ladies
in making the lawn party a success.
The proceeds were enough to purchase
several lights, and altogether the girls
are to be congratulated.

profit by the invitations to see life and
enjoy the pastoral scenes and barbecued

abound about Saratoga.

Some time ago a lady was pols,
