.. There has been NO democratic
clamor in favor Of silver payments On
the contrary. Senators Voorhees, and
Coclrell, prominent advocates Of free
coinage, have approved the determine

gold.
3. The most active cause OF the pres

act of 1899. under which. as Secretary

cLEvELAND's FINANCIAL POLICY



for Doubt mr. Uncertainty.
The following authoritative statement
by President Cleveland clears the
financial atmosphere 1t follows up
specifically the pledge of the inaugural
address. 1t meets boldly situation
which has thrown into uncertainty
many positive men. The president
says:
The inclination on the part OF tho
public TO accept newspaper reports con-
corning the intentions Of those charged
with the management of our national
finances seems to justify my emphatic
contradiction Of the statement that the
redemption of any kind Of treasury
notes. except in gold, has at any time
been determined upon or contemplated
by the secretary of the treasury or any
other member of the present admins
tration. The president and his cabinet
are absolutely harmonious in the deter
mination TO exercise every power con-
ferred upon them to maintain the pub

s.lyhile the law Of 1890 forcing the
purchase of fixed amount of silver

of the treasury. in his discretion, may
redeem in either gold or silver the
treasury notes given in payment OF sill

the policy of the government to main

THE trade-unionisn that moves upon
such lines as the miners at Shawnee.
Ohio, took, is to be commended of all
men. There the workers held a repre-
sentative assembly, standing for the good
faith of 10000 men. They resolved. in
view of the stringency of the times, that
their employers needed their sympathy
and assistance, and as the fellow was not
tolerated who in fright times advises a
strike, these workers sent word to the
proprietors of the mines that they would
not press for payments due, and as for the
future would go to work and trust to the
fairness Of the employers to pay up as
they could and until thrifty business en-
ables them to resume on as safe basis as
formerly. The result will be that thou
sands of the miners will at once 90 to
work and others as rapidly as there is
need, and that in the Hooking Valley re-
gion there will be no striking and no
friction between wage-earners and wage
payers there.

About six months ago my little son, aged
three, was very much troubled with a breaking
out on his scalp and behind his ear. The places
effected were about as large as a silver dollar,
the flesh seemed raw and covered with little
blisters. The child suffered considerably, and
was naturally very fretful. Itried several rene
dies without obtaining any beneficial results,
in fact the eruptions seemed to be spreading
and new places breaking out. / concluded
to try the CUTICURA REMEDIES. and bought
box of CUTICURA, cake of CUTICURA soar,
and bottle of CUTICURA REsoLyENT. Iwashed
the effected parts with the CUTICURA SOAP,
taking care not to irritate the flesh, and applied
CUTICURA. Noticed a change for the better in
the appearance of the eruptions in twenty-four
hours. 1 continued the treatment morning and
night, and in two weeks the eruptions entirely
disappeared, leaving the skin smooth and the
scalp clean, in fact perfect cure, as l have not
seen any indications of any eruption or breaking
out since. gave the child only few doses Of
the CUTICURA RESOLvENT. l consider your
CUTICURA REMEDIES very valuable and expect
to keep small supply constantly on hand l
believe CCTICURA would be excellent for apply
ing to insect bites, which are very annoying in
this country. c. A ARMSTRONG,
