The Sherman Act Not as Bad

His Opinion.
What Congress Will Do to Restore

Bv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, July Ex-senator Mander-
son in an interview tonight said the
first thing congress should aud probably
will do is to pass joint resolution that
the government will keep every silver
and paper dollar on parity with gold.
That will go long way in settling the
unrest and feeling Of diatrust. The sem
ate believes in free coinage of silver with
a change Of ratio. We know, said he.
that the ratio is more than one to 16.
1t is probably one to % or 25. Fix COIN
age at the market ratio and the question
is settled. Candidly don't think the
Sherman act had much to do with the
present condition OF affairs; it is only a
scare among the people, not a condition.

WEIR CRY. Kan, July 24.-Strike az

repeated calls for protection from the
mine.owners. placed armed deputies at
the mines. The deputies are men from
the surrounding towns and not person
ally interested in the outcome of the
strike. Shaft No. AT of the Kansas and
Texas company started up under armed
guards. A large crowd of strikers and
women gathered and were planning a
raid, when Sheriff Arnold appeared and
addressed the crowd, telling them that
although his sympathies were with
them, he WAS bound to do his duty.
The mob then dispersed. The only
thing that now causes apprehension is
the rumor that foreign strikers are max
ing dynamite bombs.

THE GovERNoR's ACTION.

grams this morning from Weir City, and
as the result of protracted conference
with other state officers sent a telegram
to the sheriff at Weir City to notify the
striking miners that under no circum-
stances would the state permit violence,
trespasa, assault on United States depu-
ties or destruction of property. The
governor declines to state the substance
OF the telegrams received. He has sent
for Lieutenant- Governor Daniels, now at
Weir City, and it is believed the state
militia will he called out. So far as
known everything is quiet at Weir City,
but trouble is believed to be close at

Feeling Is Strong in England Against
tho Governments Action.
New YORK, July 24.-Richard Lacy
received letter on the silver question
from Richard Everett, M. P. Gable
reports of the proceedings of parliament
mentioned Everett several times as in
terrogating Gladstone. Everett's letter
is as follows:
Feeling of many friends of free coin
be full legal tender, is strong against the
action of the government as to India:
First-Becauee it has taken a step of
worldwide Importance without consult-
ing parliament, though parliament wac
sitting at the time.
Second-Because, having in the early
part of the session Indignantly de-
nounced tampering with the currency,
it has now tampered with it in way
that rests upon no principle, and that
will adversely affect the dumb, helpless
millions of India.
Third-2ecause it did all it could to
Illustrate QomIng to an international
agreementSas to silver and gold in Brus-
sells, ,whilef 1t now seeks to carry out bas-
tard bi netallism between India and
England BY their joint action alone.
Fourth because having rallied at the
folly of the idea of attempting to fix an
artificial value for one metal it is nov
aiming to do that very thing.
Fifth-Because further new demand
for gold would be created by what is
proposed 80 artifcially. further raising
the value of that metal. and by the con-
sequeut forcing down OF the prices of
commodities to the further depression
Of industry and adding burden to all
debtors.
Sixth-Because new difficulties will
be created between India. China, Japan
and other silver-using countries.
Seventh = Because the new policy
tends to restrict the supply OF money in
stead Of leaving it free and automatic.
We look anxiously to see what the
United States will do. We earnestly
hope free coinage at the same ratio
will be Americas answer. The supreme
aim of the moneyed classes and the Lon
don press ia to restrict the supply of
money 30 as to enrich the owners of it
at the expense OF the raisers of produces
and the owners of land and other real
property. We hope the sharp intelli-
gence of your people in the main nation
of producers and land owners will ses
through this cruel game of the moneyed
Glasses and Illustrate it. The miseries of
the agricultural classes here are inde-
scribable, but they do not clearly see
why it lie their prices are forced down to
their ruin. so that it is difficult to get
them to move with the American farm
ers who are sharper. l hope our salva-
tion will come from you.

SILVER PURCHASES.

Tho Deficit for July VIII Not Be Made
Up in August.
WASHINGTON, July 24.-Acting Direc-
tor of the Mint Preston this afternoon,
in response to his counter offer, pur-
chased $4,000 ounces of silver at 69.6
cents per ounce. Preston states that
the department, if it fails to purchase
the full quota of 4.500,00 ounces this
month, will not make up the deficiency
next month. As consequence OF the
short purchases, the amount OF coin or
notes issued against the silver bullion
purchased under the law will of course
be correspondingly less.

THE NATIONAL COMMISSION.
At meeting of the national commits
sion today Commissioner Mercer of
Wyoming said the worlds fair owes its
grandeur. magpificence and success to
the national commission. He proceeded
to inveigh against some of the local
papers, between whom and the local di-
rectcry, he said, there seemed to be
sort of conspiracy to force
the commission to adjourn.
He referred to the stories of use-
less expenditure of money by the
commission when nothing was done and
no quorum present at meetings, etc.,
and said the financial statement, with
the most liberal estimates from now
until October 3lst, showed that the
commission would have at least $50, 1000
of its appropriation left at that time.
Commissioner Tousley of Minnesota
spoke about some commissioners on
standing committees who drew pay
whether the commission was in session
or not, and who, as he put it, had both
feet in the trough, and objected to any
one else getting anything.

THE CITY HALL sQuABBLE.

Bonner's Ferry has been racked
from center to circumference this
week over the City Hall question.
The row started by the trustees of
the town of Eaton laying in an APP
plication for the property, their
proposition being to have the prop
erty decided to the municipality of
Eaton and controlled to the trus-
tees thereof.
In order to acquaint our readers
with the situation, it will be neces-
sary to give the history of the
building Of the Hall. The build
ing was erected in the fall of 1891.
To the ladies Of the town is due the
credit Of its being built. 1t was
they who conceived the idea, and
they formed an association for the
purpose of raising funds to put up
the structure They gave a series
of Entertainments and invited do
nations, the understanding being
that the hall was. to be for, and
belong to, the whole people, and
not to any one of the numerous
subdivisions grouped under the
general head Of Bonner's Ferry
The location selected was near the
dividing line between Eatonville
and Frytown, so that it would be
convenient to all. With this un-
dertanding as stated, the entertain
ments were we'll patronized; dona-
tions, in the shape of labor and
money, came in literally from all
parts of the town, over half of the
contributions coming, so we are
told by those informed, from out
side the town of Eaton. And thus
matters progressed, the ladies hand
ling the finances in a highly credit
able manner, until, after adding
many expensive improvements, the
ladies found it a considerable of a
burden to carry and proposed to
turn it over to the men folks. Ac-
cordingly, a public meeting was
called, not Of Eatonville alone, but
Of all Bonner's Ferry, and then the
ladies surrendered their rights, and
it was decided at the meeting tC
elect board of trustees to act fol-
the people, to carry on the improve
ments, raise funds to pay off the in
debtedness and have control o
things generally. DIR. I. A. Bishop
w. L. Kinnear and A. L. Jameson
were elected and have acted in tn,
discharge of their duties to this
day. They have paid off three
fifths Of the Indebtedness, and arr
prepared to pay the balance wher
it is due-January 1. This is tn,
history of the City Hall, that com
modious and creditable structur,
which has cost the general publ,
hereabouts over $500 and the mu
nicipality of Eaton not one cent.
Now the municipality of Eator
steps in and say: "This building
belongs to US; we demand that tn,
