KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less. expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs,
It's excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative; eiiectually cleansing the system,
dispclling colds, headaches and feyers
and permanently curing constipation,
II has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup Of Figs,
and being well informed, yon will not
accept any substitute if offered.

TEXARKANA ARKANSAS THURSDAY EVENING" AUGUST TO- 1898

many were not in haste to see il at
the outset. AS a matter of fact, how
ever, the attendance in the first three
months has been very large, the ad-
missions numbering 9,064,840, The
paid admissions have numbered 6,475,-
81, while at the centennial exposi-
tion for the same period they aggre-
gated only 1,7l1,164. The history of
all worlds fairs has been that the at
tendance was greatly increased in the
latter half of the period and this
would have undoubtedly been the
case, without regard to any action Of
the railway, if a sudden financial pan
ic had not come upon the country.
To charge this calamity upon the rail-
ways because they did not cut their
rates to Chicago without regard to
the question of profit is evidently
absurd. 1t may be declared on the
other hand that if the fair has been
injured by nonattendance of people
waiting for lower rates the RESPONSE
bility rests upon newspapers which
have from the outset been asserting
that the rates were extortionate and
that the railways would be compelled
to reduce them shortly. In sandbsg-
ging the railways the papers have al
so sandbagged the fair by inducing
people to stay away, until now many
of them have been overtaken by finan-
cial misfortune and will not come at
all, no matter how low the rates may
be made. 1t is the sensational and
reckless portion of the press of the
country and not the railways that
have damaged the Columbian exposi-
ton.

TEXAS SILVER MEN.

1t is certainly true either that tho
base of operations, In the fight for a
free and unlimited coinage of the
white metal, has been changed from
Colorado to Texas, or branch of the
ultra free coinage element has devel
oped in the Lone Star State. This
fact is amply illustrated by the pro-
ceedings of a monetary mass meeting
held recently at Anson, Tex, at which,
after much discussion and numerous
heated debates, the following resolu.
ton was adopted by practically
unanimous vote;
Whereas, we are face to face with
the issue. "Shall we have single
standard or two?" and;
Whereas silver has been recognized
as precious metal for centuries until
the demonetization of silver as money
in 1873, and as only by act of congress
can the silver be protected from the
unscrupulous manipulstions of the
money lenders of the east by restoring
1t to the place it formally occupied
and thereby insuring to the people of
the whole nation sound circulating
medium of exchange; therefore be it
Resolved, that we, the citizens of
Jones county, Texas, in mass meeting
assembled, earnestly urge upon our
representatives in congress to use their
utmost influence in opposing the re-
peal of the Sherman law until they
can procure the passage of law Civ
ing to the people of The nation free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to 1; and while demanding
the foregoing of our representatives
in congress, we pledge our individual
efforts to assist them by agitating and
propsgating the cause until the final
triumph of silver.
2. We are opposed to the issuing
Of interest-bearing bonds for the pur-
pose of purchasing either gold or sill

coined or bullion.

SILVER CAUCUS.
Friends Of the White Metal Meet in
Special Conference.

special Conferance.
The caucus of the members of the
House Of Representatives who favor
the free coinage of siluer, which was
called on Tuesday by Representative
Bland, was held yestesday in accor-
dance with said call, the conference
lasting from noon until 2:45 p. m
AT tho close it was officially announc-
ed that the following resolution, offer
ed by Mr.. Boatner, of Louisiana, had
been adopted by unanimous vote:
"Rosolved, That we will support
bill repeating the purchase clause of
the Sherman act and currently proyid-
ing for the free and untrammelled
coinage of silver, with full legal ten
der quality on such ratio as will pro-
vide and maintain the parity between
gold and silver.
"Be 1t further resolved, That
committee of seven be appointed by
the Chairman of this conference to
draft and introduce such bill and
take proper steps to secure the free
and full discussion and consideration
thereof and vote of the House upon
the bill and all proper amendments.
The committee provided for in the
foregoing resolution, was composed
as follows Messrs. Bland. Sibley,
Boatner, Lane, Bankhead, Bryan and
Bailey. By vote of the caucus Judge
Culberson was added to the COM
mittee.
When the caucus met it was estima-
ted that there were about forty men,
bers Of the House in the hall, bat dur
ing the time the caucus WAS in session
about 100 members were admitted.
Estimates of the number in attendance
ranged from sixty to 125-the Clerk
of the caucus fixing the number at
ninety-three and Mr.. Bland saying he
counted over . 100.
Judge Culberson, of Texas, was
elected Chairman of the caucus and
Representative Sibley, of Pennsylva-
MIA, the only Democrat present from
the Eastern States, Secretary. The
Populists were represented by Jerry
Simpson and Mr.. KEN, of Nebraska.
The attendance upon the caucus can
hardly be regarded as test of the
strength of the silver forces in the
House, for..the reason given by Mr..
Enloe, of Tennessee. That reason was
that the Democratic party was charg-
ed by the people with the duty oflegis-
lating so as to remedy the present de-
preston in all branches of business.
A Democratic caucus, and not mix
ed conference, should have boen called
to talk over the situation and to FORM

Only ono member from Tennessee,
Mr.. Cox, was present, although the
entire delegation are friendly to the
silver interests. The caucus was mark
