prayerful appeal of these people for JUS

copied as compromise. 1t was all the
friends of silver could obtain when the
law was enacted. But as it is the only
strand we have connecting silver with
gold, he would oppose with all the vigor at
his command its repeal until better sub
Stitute is given.

the visitation is a severe trial, with the
assistance the Indian Department will
grant Kincolith will pull through. The
cause OF the ire is said to be the upsetting
