ANOTHER WAY OUT.

If American silver cannot be put on
an equa. footing, of some ratio, with
gold as monetary metal, then the thing
for the American congress to do is to
demonetize both gold and silver. This
action would not disturb the intrinsic
worth, as unit standards of value, of
either of the two metals, nor yet en-
barrass America in adjusting her Euro
pean balances with either gold or silver.
The EAGLE charges the Cleveland adj
ministration nothing for this brilliant
suggestion as the only plain and equal
plan of getting out of the silver
question muddle. Tie demonetiza-
ton of gold would work no harm to the
gold horders of America, as neither gold
or silver are received by Europe from
America Oh their face or monetaryivalue,
but on their metal or bullion weight.

One of the very last acts passed by
congress, through the determined efforts
of the Republican members, and one of
the last acts approved by the last Re-
publican president and is now q law,
was one compelling the railroads OF the
country to substitute for the man
slaughtering methods of coupling cars
now in universal use, an automatic
coupler, together with air brakes.
whereby cars may be coupled without
putting in peril of life and limb the
great army of young men engaged in
the operating departments of the roads,
and at the same time giving the engine
men full control of the trains without
the assistance of the trainmen at the
brakes. IL this wise and beneficent
measure had been left TO the Democrats
it would not have become law at this
time, if ever.

Now that congress is out of the way
and there being no hope for further aid
from that source, tie worlds fair will
proceed deliberately to ignore the Sun
day closing provisions of the acts of
congress relative thereto. This will be
no cause for special surprise; few people
there are but have believed from the
start the fair will be opened Sundays.
Without reference to the merits or de-
merits of Sunday opening, Chicago
strove to secure tie big show for what
money there is in it 20 the city, and
Sunday will be the best paying day of
the seven, for obvious reasons.

Martins Dilemma.

From the Arkansas City Traveller.
The dispatches from Washington say
that Senator Martins pathway is strewn
with thorns instead of roses because of
his being long on promises and short on
places. Before his alleged election he
promised Senator O'Bryan of Wichita
that in consideration of his support he
would have him appointed United States
senator. Now it appears that every
Populi5t member in the state senate has
signed and forwarded remonstrances to
Mr.. Martin, protesting against the APP
pointment of O'Bryan. alleging that he
is not in sympathy with the policy of the
Peoples party. 1t is also represented
that our own John A. Eaton is the
author of the remonstrance and that he
is, by virtue of his Indian rubber politics,
acceptable to The Populists.
Martin is in an embarrassing position,
even for schemipg politician. O'Brien
to whom he Is under pledge is Demo
crat in good standing and hold over
senator. The demonstrating Populist
senators will also get whack at Martin
two years hence. 1t is clearly one of
those cases where you will be CANNED if
you do and you viii damned if you
don't.

The old cross fire over the appropria-
tions made by the last two congresses
has been opened afresh, the Democrats
striving to make the country believe
that 81, OPS, 900 is less than $685., All, 900.
But what is the use? If the needs of
the government require the larger
amount why apologize for it? Or does
the Democracy desire the country 10
understand that they would withhold
the necessary support from the govern
ment simply for the sake OF making a
misleading record Of economy for their
party? Oh, the demogogy of these lat

We are now at the jerusalem station

not then been laid, and il was not until
Saturday, August p, at l0o'clock IN the
forenoon, that the first through train

Tais IS stated as official information,

This beautiful baby boy, the son Of

Ind, is one of thousands completely
cured by the CpTIcURA REMEDIES OF a
torturing and disfguring skin disease.
after manv doctors and remedies had
waoily iailed. The marvellous cures
daily performed by these great remedies
have astonished all familiar with them.
None but mothers realize how these LIT.
tie ones suffer when their tender skins
are literally on fire with itching and
burning eczemas. and other itching scaly
blotchy and pirnply skin and scalp dis
cases. To know that single application
of the CUTICURA REMEDIES will afford
instant relief, permit rest and sleep, and
point to a permanent and economical
because most speedy cure, and not to
use them. is to fail in your duty. Parents
think of the mental and physical suffer
ing to be endured in years to come from
neglected skin. scalp and blood diseases.
Cures made in infancy and childhood
are almost ivariably permanent.

That's full of thoughtfulness and g. ace
Perhaps CT hauteur, just trace
That's Susie.
Her fluffy waves of nut-brown hair.
O'ersh ade a brow that's smooth and fair;
Her smiles are fraught with sweetness rare
That brighter makes ones day.
Her eyes Of deep cerulean blue
Are wells of thought" and always true;
I'd like to coin some phrases new
For Susie.
In figure she is qnite petite.
And ever dainty, trim and neat;
Her voice Is low, and wondrous Sweet
Like the murmur of brook.
The rose Of health blooms in her cheek,
Her lips are framed kind words to speak;
A truer friend 'twer vain to seek
Than Suse-
Her manners courteous and kind
/ wonder if Iii ever find
so many graces all combined
In one fair, fragile form!
Though in accord with Natures laws.
This pearl may not be free OF flaws;
Love her dearly. lust because"
She's Susie.
