New York bankers at Delmoncio's
and he talked in this strain:

The country has recently heard a
great deal about bimetallism and a
double standard, and it is possible that
these subjects will continue to be dis
cussed to some extent in the future.
For nay part have never been able to
understand what was meant by a double
standard or double measure of value,
and have never found anyone who
could tell me. To my mind it seems as
absurd to contend that there should be
two different standards or measures of
value as it would be to have two yard
sticks of different lengths or two gall
Ions of different dimensions.
The Minneapolis Tribune, in the
following temperate words, advises
this jealous convert not to lose his
head: sr.-@ i.
But let not Mr.. Carlisle get drunk on
the new truths which he has imbibed.
In rushing away from the boulders of
Scylla, let him not founder on the
rocks of Charybdis. In scrambling
away from the Rocky mountain silver
currency doctrine, let him not trip on
the Wall street dogma. There is a
danger which follows the inflationists,
and a danger which follows the con-
tractionists. There is a silver heresy,
and there is a gold heresy; silver
idolatry and a gold idolatry. Let Mr..
Carlisle keep in the middle of the
kings highway. = ~

ST. PAUL DlsDUtch:

ST.. PAUL Dispatch: There is
one grave obstacle to the advance
ment of Thomas B. Reed to the
presidency of this country, the ex-
ception of which seems not to be
possible to the narrow soul of the
mugwump. 1t is that the new
man from Maine, like the old one,
is possessed of the pinions of an
eagle, and that he may never de-
scend low enough in his flight to
submit himself to the attacks of
that species of political bird which
is best known by it's propensity to
foul it's own nest.

How would the free-trade Populists
and Democrats of Isanti county like to
have the tariff of twenty-five cents a
bushel on potatoes removed? Pro-
lection on your own products is good
thing, isn't it?-Isoati County Press.
The Populists and Democrats
voted for free trade in everything
except potatoes. Or in other
words they would like to have the
tariff taken off everything but
potatoes. Isn't that about the
size of it?

peror William is generally be-
ieved to be a self-willed and
autocratic ruler; but he would not
have dared to suspend the Sher-
man Law, the Geary Law and the
Antitrust Law, as Mr.. Cleveland
has done, nor would he, should he
conclude to change the foreign
policy of the empire, do it for the
purpose of discrediting it's policy
in the past. On the contrary, he
would make the change with a
view to the maintenance of the
dignity and honor of the nation
and the government.

The handsome $10,0 brick block on
the northeast corner of Main and First
streets is monument of Sam Carew's
industry, pluck and business tact.
Sam is about IS years of age. He has
hoed his own row ever since he was a
boy. What education he obtained was
picked up in the common schools of
Mile Laos county. Every dollar of
the money that paid for the construc-
ton of that brick block was earned by
himself in the harvest fields, in the
woods and on the log drives. Every
dollar was earned by hard knocks, and
right here in Mile Laos county.
What Sam Carew has done others can
do.

The Conn d'Etat of 1881.

When the sun rose on France, De-
cember End, 1851, it saw a. constitu-
tional republic; when it set, absolute
monarchy held Paris and the nation
in a grip that was not relaxed for
twenty years. Trading upon the repu-
tation of mon oncle,' and aided by
political Adventures who loved power
better than country. Louis Napoleon
made himself master of France. He
dreamed of founding a new dynasty,
and thought the Empire was built on a
rock. Less than twenty years after,
he was defeated exile, his only refuge
in ''perfdious Albion" And yet this
change of twenty years was only the
crushing of an individual who had
dared to rear his head nearer the stars
than the Destines intended for him.
In twenty years the Republic on
in 1853, had grown from twenty to
forty millions of people, had fought a
great civil war, and was filling up, by
aid of thousands of miles of railroad,
the great West, with a population and
promise OF growth which Napoleon's
dreams never could equal. To under
stand this great West, travel by the
Burlington Route through the ten
states it links together. Tickets can
be had Of any railroad agent, or write
to W. J. C. Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent,

There is a tendency among mer-
chants, particularly in small
towns, to generalize too much in
their advertisements. A retailers
advertisement will not be sought
for if it is mainly composed of
statements regarding the uniform
excellence of the goods kept on
hand, etc., etc. The people want
to know just what you have to
sell and what the price is. In
other words, they read the ad-
vertisements for the same reason
they read the other portions of the
