stones and msightly condition of the
place to the improvement which
would follow the placing of the cemetery
under the control Of the city authorities
with view to the alterations suggested "
We are inclined to think the mayor is
mistaken in his statement that "nothing
can be done TO improve the old cemetery"
Has every possible means been tried to
overcome the difficulties in the way of i'm
proving the place. While we are not pre-

such difficulties, and why can't one be
found to overcome them here2 Are we to
understand that the old cemetery is to re-

that the place is hurtful to the public

they could be induced to abandon their

PETERS Prediction.

The long bearded Kansas senator Mr..
PETER, paused long enough the other day,
in his work of gathering statistics on ag-
riculture, to say in an interview at India
napolis, that the Sherman silver purchase
act would be repealed and that the effect
of repeating 1t would be to destroy the
democratic and republican parties and
build up a new party, based upon the
principles OF the peoples party. The effect
of the repeal of the silver purchase act
predicted by Senator PETER is the one
that would give him the greatest sat
isfaction, but it is not the one
that will be caused by the repeal of that
act. The silver-purchaseac act will be re
pealed because the people demand It's re
peal and they are not likely to give much
encouragement to any party that is not
in hearty sympathy with the repeating
act They want sound money, and no
political organization can be built up on
the idea that the interests of the country
can be best served by debased currency.
The first to suffer from Unsound money
are the farmers and the wage earmers,
because the prices paid for farm products
and services do not advance as rapidly as
the prices of the necessaries of life, when
the currency declines in purchasing
power, and those of them who had been
misled by unsound money doctrines would
quickly abandon party holding such
doctrines.
If Senator Potter Is INDUCING the hope
that the repeal of the silver purchase act
is going to help him and his party he
should cease to do so, because he will sui
fer great disappointment ifhe does not.
The people are thinking about this money
question now, and their COMMON sense
teaches them that they have nothing to
hope for from the financial ideas that are
entertained by the Peoples party The
senator himself has never had sufficient
acquaintance with money or questions
pertaining to it to make his predictions, as
to what the effect OF the repeal of the sill
ver-purchase act will be, valuable.

The Columbia EcE sfcr says 10 SIS p.r-
fectly willing Co continue tha discussion
. 0f tho silver question with thc NpNN'No
NFr~ That amiaolo Journal seems 'o
think That assertion is discussion. SoF-
orai days ago the MoRNrNG News hrouEht
The discussion 20 a point beyond which IT,
could not reasonably go, unless the Regis
. ter answered certain questions asked bF
tho MORNING NEWS
The Register asserted that If free coin
age of silver were established at tae cN-
istmg ratio and the silver dollar was
made receivable for public ana private
dues, 10 would pass at its face value on "a
parity with the gold dollar without regard
10 It's bullion value Tho MoBNING News
asked it TO give its reasons for thinking
so. The Register has not given any rea-
sons IL contcuts itself with again assert
ing that free coinage and the remonctizing
of silver would ensure the equal purchas-
ing power Of the metals.and would restore
the intrinsic value ratio Of silver and gold
10 the old basis of Is to !, avoiding in
creasing the bulk of the already too bulky
silver dollar" We submit again that as
sertion is not discussion. The Register
must give reasons for thinking that free
coinage is all that is necessary to put sill
yer on a parity with gold. If tails TO do
SO it practically admits it has no reasons.
We have pointed out why free coinage
would not restore the parity of the metals
The Register has complimented US on our
frankness. It ought to give us'the chance
to return the compliment.
There is another thing it says to which
we desire to call attention. It is that
Secretary Carlisle discriminates against
silver when he pays out gold instead of
silver for treasury notes The Register
ought to think over that statement again.
II may desire to reviseit. Not long ago
paper in, this state, for insisting upon
similar statement was told by the Louis
vile COurier-Journal that it had yet to
learn the A. B. G. and common sense of
finance, and upon a second sober thought
the paper in question admitted that it had
something to learn.
AS a matter of fact the payment of
treasury notes in gold instead of silver is
not discrimination against silver. Gold
is demanded, and if it was refused, and
silver offered, there would be discrimina-
ton against silver, because the secretary,
by his act, would virtually say that gold
is the more desirable-that he is willing
to part with silver, but not with gold.
The secretary would gladly part with
silver for treasury notes but the holders
of the notes discriminate against it; they
will not accept it when they can get gold.
The secretary does not discriminate
against it, If he should refuse gold when
demanded he would fail to maintain the
parity between gold and silver, and it is
the policy of the government to maintain
parity between them.

Lool, Before You Crab.

The folly of grabbing at the shadow and
missing the substance was never better
illustrated than during the hearing of a
petty case, in a Chicago court, a few
days ago To begin at the beginning, one
of the chief attractions at an East Side
dime museum, for SOME time, had been
''The Living Head Without Any Body"
In red letters, four feet long, the mana
gers of the show declared that she(l) was
the greatest wonder in the whole world
And the natives probably believed it, for
1.-The living Head Without Any Body"
became quite n favorite. Her salary was
ample, her expenses were few, obvi-
ously, and it appeared that she
was swinging along the high
road to success. Swinging along"
is not used as a figure of speech, be it
understood, for her whole stock of under
pinning, so far as the,world could Judge,
consisted of a glass slab suspended upon
chains, and upon this slab she lived and
moved and had her being at least during
business hours. She was an ethereal
thing of beatty The chappies dreamed
about her face, and tried to imagine
what kind Of form she would have had
if nature had not been kind enough to
make a high-salaried freak of her.
So much for the ideal The real APP
pcared in court as plaintiff in a suit
against the city for damages. There was
no installing the identify that she admit
ted. She was, indeed, 1.-THE Living Head
Without Any Body" And she wanted
damages for falling through a sidewalk
and hurting her hip! The hurt, she said,
interfered with her business. The idea
struck the lawyers as. being funny What
use had Living Head Without Any Body
for hipsl How could she prove that she
needed hips2 they asked. There was only
one way to do it, by explaining her trade
secret. She tried to set out of it, but the
Judge told her She must answer. Her re
ply is quoted from.,a Chicago paper: Il
don't use my feet much; it is an illusion,
you know; l sit dowh" &c.,.
That was very little to say, it is true.
But, alas it was all too much. The idol
was smashed. She yielded to sordid
desire to wriag damages out of the city,
and in one breath destroyed her own
fame. For she can never again be to the
gaping misunderstanding populaco what
she once was. Pity the fate of the Living
Head Without Any Body" Gold tempted
her and she fell.
