THE action of the India government
has impressed the President and his
cabinet with the urgency and impor-
tarce Of an extra session Of Congress.
The extra session will certainly be
held in the early part of September.
India has been ameng the greatest
users of silver, and uses practically no
gold. India having ROW abandoned
its silver standard and adopted the
gold standard of Great Britain, it fol-
lows, according to the we'll known
law Of supply and demand, that silver
dollars will depreciate, so that now
silver dollars have already tumbled
from e. cents to 5S; cents. Silver
dollars may tumble still further, and
probably will. This is a serious situ-
alton for the United States as the
most of the money in this country has
been issued on basis of silver bullion.
China is the only country, we believe,
left now with a single silver standard,
and that country is not considered a
very potent factor in the adjustment
Of financial problems between nations.
1t is a serious matter and demands
attention.

but the extent of the wound could not
be determined until the doctor saw 1t.

BIMETALLIc CONVENTION.
The Convention Completes Its Labors
and Adjourns.

ST. LOUIS, October 5.-The last day
of the Pan-American Bimetallic Con-
vention opened with the committee on
resolutions presenting supplemental
report to take action looking to en-
dorsement on the removal of the
national capitol further west, also IA
voring the printing and circulation of
the address of yesterday by Walter N.
Allen, of Kansas, upon the exception
clause of the silver law" The report
was adopted without dissent. The
question came then upon the adoption
of the report of the committee. Del
egate Waterbury Of Kansas moved
the amendment of the report and the
addition of a proposition presented
by II. NJ. Taylor, of Mexico, fayoring
the increase of the volume of curren-
cy, by the issue of legal tender notes,
secured by land values. Upon this
motion Delegate Cochrane, of Mis-
souri,, took the floor in opposition to
any and all efforts to say or to do any
thing in this convention upon the
money question other than fully ana
entirely enforce the free coinage of
silver.
Gov. Waite of Colorado, begged the
convention not to be diverted from
one great issue. Until the success of
bimetallsm showed Wall street TO
have lost its grip upon legislation it
was impossible to secure any other
form of financial legislation. AS TO
the West and South, they could con-
troll the politics of the country if it
became necessary. He declared his
belief that there were millions of mou-
ey now in Washington with which to
buy Congressman, and with such a
condition the South and West must
unite.

Excellent Advice.

The very best advice yet offered to
the masses of laboring people, who as
a rule are small depositors in their To-
cal banks, is that which appeared in
one of the newspapers of large man
ufacturing center recently. The nd
vice is couched III the following
terms:
off you have mouey ON hand, first
pay your debts; then if you have
something left lend it to some one
who can secure you against loss
your neighbor, your employer or a
bank, In this way it will earn you
interest and put the wheels of busi-
ness in motion. The person who
draws his money out of bank and
hides it away ought to be driven out
of the city to find home in some To-
cality where the seal Of the city is:
"Every one for himself and the devil
take the hindmost. Many man is
out of a job today, because he and his
wife hurried to the bank a few weeks
age to draw out the few dollars they
had there. The next week his en-
ployer was made to pay up a loan and
forced to shut up his shop, and the
first man to be discharged was this
panic-struck depositor. We are knit
and bound together so closely that
even an ignorant woman may, in saw
ing her few dollars, bring hardships
on hundreds, and herself lose many
times the amount of her deposit. 10
you who have given your confidence
to your banks, in spite of the whisper
ings of fear, the public owes respect
and gratitude. But for you not a
wheel would be turning today, not a
bell would call men to work. And
they who owe you most are they who
were so cowardly as to think only of
themselves, and who have suffered but
little, simply and only because you re-
fused to follow their selfish and sui
cidal guidance"

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.
Its 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; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t 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,

SENATORIAL SITUATION.
The Offer for Compromise on the Sill
yer Question Brought Forward.

According to the latest advices from
the scene of legislation action at Wash
ingtOn, the much talked of compro-
mise on the silver question has at last
been brought forward in the Senate
and attracted the closest attention on
both sides of the chamber. Senator
Butler of South Carolina, in an impas-
stoned speech against the passage of
the bill, made compromise the sal
lent feature. In reply to a question
which he said had been asked over
and over again as to when a vote
would be had on this bill, Senator
Butler said compromise, compromise
is the solution to the struggle here.
The repeal bill was taken up and
Butler, Democrat of South Carolina,
addressed the Senate. The minority
OF the senate, he said, were not at
tempting to coerce anybody, but |
think we may safely say they do not
intend to be coerced by anybody.
The Senate is not body where some
political hostler can crack the whip
and compel the minority to conform
to the wishes of the more numerical
majority. Butler denied that there
had been filibustering on the bill and
ridiculed the idea that the proceedings
of the opponents Of repeal were revo-
lutionary or reasonable. When the
suggestion of compromise had been
made it had been whispered around
that the president would not accept
compromise. That does that high Of
fetal great injustice, because it is none
of his business what the Senate does.
l do not believe he has attempted to
use his high Office to influence legisla-
tion in this body.
Mr.. Blackburn, Democrat of Ken
tucky, then addressed the Senate in
opposition to the bill. He said he
was a bimetallist in the broadest,
truest sense of the word. He hoped
a compromise would be reached that
would be satisfactory to all shades OF
opinion. He had but one condition to
impose upon the compromise. Unlock
the doors Of the mints to silver. "Mr
President, the people are demanding
a settlement of this question. The
people are impatient and have a right
to be impatient, standing as they do
in the midst of desolation. They
want the issue settled, and for one |
here declare | will have no part nor
hand in delaying its settlement" Mr..
Blackburn regretted that it had been
intimated the administration was a
party to the conspiracy that brought
the recent trouble upon the county.
He then entered into long defense of
the administration. In conclusion
Mr.. Blackburn said: "I appeal to
those of my party who sit around me,
who have been trusted to guard the
fortunes and industries of the people,
for fair righteous and speedy settle
ment of this vexed question" ZAP

Cherokee Bonds.

The report that st. Louis parties
had made an offer for the Cherokee
bonds has aroused interest in this
question once more. If the deal is
consummated it means the distribu-
tion in the Cherokee Strip of the en-
ormous sum of $8,5O0OOO, When the
Strip sale was ratified and it looked
as though the money would be paid
ont in short time the merchants all
over the Nation invested heavily in
all kinds of merchandise and sold
goods to the Indians against their per
capita payment. Many of the people
have exhausted their expected share
of the sale money and the merchants
have been compelled to shut down OH
the credit system. The longer the
sale of bonds is deferred the more
embarrassing the situation becomes,
and in the interest of all concerned it
is hoped that this time the transfer
will be made and the money paid out.
1t means a great deal to that section.

The schools of Texarkana have rap
idly increased, both in capacity and
excellence, during the past year. This
applies to the public as well as private
schools of the city, and speaks well
for the community, for where the ed
ucational interest of a section advanc-
es, all other interests, mechanical and
industrial, are certain to keep stride.
Churches and schools are the public
sign boards Of a community, and
from them the stranger within the
gates reads the story Of progress or
retrogation in unmistakable language.
By this means he judges, and correct
ly so, whether the town or city Is
keeping pace with the ownward
march Of enlightened nineteenth CEN
tury progress, or IS permitting itself
to sink into gradual decay through
the moss-covered process of time, has

forward to secure the coveted boon.
While the postofllce was divided, the
receipts Of the two Offices were, of
course, counted separately. But now
that the Offices have again been con-
solidated, we feel certain that the
proper showing could be made, eth
er in receipts of Office or inhabitants
Of city. The State Line cannot now
cut any figure in the matter, with a

Democratic Differences.

According to latest advices from
Washington, difficulties in the way of
securing compromise on the repeal
bill becomes more and more apparent
every day, because of the differences
which exist on the Democratic side OF
the chamber. These made themselves
from the beginning most manifest on
the question of issuing bonds. Some
of the especial champions of the adj
ministration insist that if silver is to
be coined to the extent Of $700,OOO,-
900 or $SOO,0OO,000 as proposed, in
order to preserve the parity OF gold
and silver it will be absolutely neces-
sary to procure a greater supply Of
gold. This position is combated by
the majority Of the silver Democrats,
and many announce their unalterable
opposition. Discussion has also de-
veloped the fact that there are some
Democratic Senators who favor repeal
who will not vote for the bond issue
because of the bad effect they think
the adoption of such apolicy would
have upon the party. Unless the
bond question is in some way elimi-
mated from the measure, it seems inn
possible for the Democrats to agree
upon bill as q party measure. a
Republican Senator expressed the
opinion that when compromise
came, if it is to come, 1t would orisi-
nate on his side of the chamber.
