The Man With the Hare Lip Had a
Difficulty With the Walters.


The man with the hare lip was
hungry. He went into restaurant
and at once got into trouble with the
waiter because of his inability to pro-
nounce the letter ''p.' He studied
the coffee stained bill of fare and
then said:
81 want four foached aigs."
When the waiter returned he de-
posted before the guest four slices OF
pork. The hare-Iipped man looked at
the meat, then at the waiter.
81 didn't order that he said.
''Dat's what yo' ohdahed, sah,'' re-
piled the .darkey. 'sYo' sayd yo'
wanted fo' polk steaks
mo, didn't order four fork steaks
l ordered four foached aigs.''
''Well, what yo' kiclxin about? Dere's
yo' polk steaks
The hungry man first made sure
that the 'Senegam bian was not guying
him, and then said:
''See here, my friend. don't sup
pose you ever lived on a farm
The waiter said he didn't and the
colloquy proceeded by the following
circuitous route, in order to avoid the
lingual rock on which the hungry
mans gastronomic hopes had been
wrecked at the outset:
''Wen, you know what a rooster is?''
Eyes, sab; saw one on Souf Watah
street once.'
ssYou know what ROSTERS wife is?''
s'Dey youster call 'em hens
ssYou know what a ROSTERS wife's
children are?'
s'ChickumS."
''You know what a ROSTERS wife's
children afore they're Matched are?"
''Aigs-'

the Senate was guided BY the sole pur-

bringing TO the front the silver issue.
The tariff question is settled. 80 far IS
the Democratic masses are concerned,

two-thirds Of the advocates Of free

Neither free trade nor protection can
be coupled with bimetallism, because
more than one-half Of the advocates Of
free coinage are against protection, and
= large portion Of the advocates Of free
coinage are against free trade. The
platform which couples either free trade
or protection with the free coinage oil

wAsHISGTos. Sept. 4.-Senstor Jones
has renowned his allegiance to the Re
publican party and joined the Populists.
He said 10 q correspondent to-day:
eyes, il is true | wrote . letter sew
srsl days ago to the Chairman OF the
Republican Committee Of Nevada and it
will reach him .o-dsy. In this letter l
gave my reasons for suoh action, namely.
that / no longer can continue as . mem.
ber Of . party whose principles and ac-
lions on the money question | am una
BILE to sympathize with. The Republican
party, az illustrated repeatedly, is OPP
posed to free silver coinage. Especially
was this demonstrated when the Sher'
man law was repealed. II is very hard
for one to renounce the party with which
he has affiliated for many years. IL
would be harder still and unnatural Tor
. Republican to join the ranks Of the
chief opposing party. 1t would
not only be hard, but unnatural.
What is the natural action then! Why
10 join the party which makes the silver
question the dominant issue, the Popu-
lists. / sm as strong . protectionist as
any man, but the tariff question is . sec
ondary issue. The money question 10
paramount to ell others. The tariff bill,
passed recently. is q protectionist meas
ure, leaving out free wool. but it will
mot begin to cure the ills from which this
country is now suffering so terribly.
The Republican party has turned the
hands Of the clock back twenty years.
/ can no longer, as an honest man, true to
my convictions, remain with . party
whose principles on the main issue are SO
~repugnant to my own views. President
Cleveland one year ago said all he wanted
was the restoration Of confidence. The
sbsurdity Of il! What we wanted was
money. II we had had money enough
we would have had confidence enough,
but ID has been q kind Of confidence
game all the way through and I am
heartily sick and tried Of it,"
Senator Jones, about n week later,
will leave for the Pacific Coast.

In view Of the fact that . bill passed q
few months ago by Congress i~nstructing
the Secretary Of the Treasury to coin
the silver seigniorage was vetoed by the
President, il is interesting to note the
present mint activity in the coinage Of
the seigniorage and also the principal.
Mint Director Preston. di~sooursing on
the 423, 900 standard silver dollars
minted in July, says the bullion from
which these dollars were coined wal ac-
CURED under the Act Of July IA. 1890,
which 10 the only bullion held by the
Treasury available for the coinage Of all
yer dollars. The cost Of the bullion con.
tanned In these dollars was $2S5, 66l IS,
showing . gain or seigniorage of $751;
33s 25; consequently. s2s5. Gel rs will
be held for the redemption Of Treasury
notes. and sl37. 33s rs will be used in
the payment Of the obligations Of the
Government and will add to the circu-
lating medium TO that extent. A much
larger amount was coined last month,
and it is understood that the millions Of
silver on hand will be thus speedily put
into circulation. Mining and Scientific

BIMETALLIsM.

There is an astonishing amount OF
~mystidcation about the term "bimetal-
lism." State conventions in several
States are using it as il it were possible
to believe in bimetallism and the gold
stand 1t the same time. Thus, one Dem.
ocratic convention recently resolved in
favor of bimetallism, but went on to
state, in effect, that il meant the use OF
gold. silver and paper, all maintained at
par with gold. But this is not bimetsl.
iism at ell. No man is a bimetallist who
wants silver to be coined, and paper to
be issued. redeemable in gold only, or its
intrinsic value measured only. Bimetal.
ism is the unlimited use Of gold and
silver for money for every purpose for
which money is used. History demon.
strates that the variances in the produc-
sion Of each metal, though at times
large, have never. In the long run Of o
century, failed to Offset and to balance
each other, so that the joint use Of both
on q fixed ratio has given an ample and
staple currency basis to the worlds bust.
ness. At NO period 10 history has the
production Of either silver or gold alone
been enough to keep up the worlds nee
sssary stock Of money. This shows the
necessity of using both together. And
the hard times that now prevail in all
civilized countries are the direct results
Of the attempt Of their Governments.
under Englsnd's and Germany's lead, to
ignore that necessity and do business on
gold alone.-New York Recorder.

BOARDING OF GOLD

A writer in the Pail Mall Gazette, Of
London. calls attention to the enormous
accumulation Of gold in that financial
center. The total amount Of gold now in
the Bank Of England is $500, 600, 900. a
sum unprecedented in the history of that
institution. Referring TO this fact the
writer states that. as after 1865 and 1866,
the Bank Of England "is once more
watching for the time when the mighty
torrent Of gold will again burst the dam
and cause . general and rapid improve
ment in the value Of securities" Peo-
pie, says he. must have something for
their money, and the question soon must
be. who is going to set the example for
going in for the purchase Of second.
third, or fourth-rate investments! "ln
times gone by the same process has
always been gone through, and ID must
inevitably be gone through again. At
the present time there are some thou
sand millions sterling Of money, or
IS. 600, 900, 900. lying on deposit with the
London banks. and hardly any Of the
dspositors dare to move their portion
into securities that are not gilt-edged. "

THE PRINCIPLE.

Twelve years ago Japan contained only
one spinning mill. The latest statistics
from that country tell Of no less than
thirty-eight now in operation, with over
1856, 900 spindles and representing . CAPT.
tai of over $40, 600. 900. When Mr..
Cleveland. Mr.. Wilson and the rest get
their free raw material and start their
factories. we presume there will be no
trouble in their paying American wages
and shipping the product of their mills
right to Japan for 9 profitable market.
Possibly even Mr.. Cleveland would re-
coil . little and say: 1--WE cannot COM
pete with these Japanese, because they
can work for eight cents . day" and yet
he will get to that in . little while, be.
cause he insists on free jute and that
comes from countries where men get
eight cents. He insists on free lead, but
the men who mine lead in Mexico get
only Is cents q day, and take most Of
that 10 store pay. That is, they are
simply another form Of slaves. He in
sists on free wool, and the men who raise
wool in South Africa live on the fruits
of the forest and an occasional missionary
and all the money they need for clothing
is just enough to occasionally buy q pair
Of earrings. The Democratic party. %
represented nowadays, ought to be pic
tured solely as ph~ilanthropists standing
on the seashore Of the United States and
reckoning to every naked wretch beyond
the sea to come and compete with our
skilled workingmeD, and signaling
Great Britain that there 10 still . little
money left in the United States to please
come and get it.-Salt Lake Tribune.

GOLD AND .

Working people do not fully realize
the controlling force that make wages
fall in spite Of the strenuous efforts Of
labor organizations or they would take 3
more active interest in the money ques-
ton. As the value Of money goes up
prices must decline and wages, the price,
Of labor, are no exception to this invari-
able rule.
Organization has done much to pre-
vent wages from falling to the European
standard. because natural conditions
have assisted in maintaining the Ameri-
can standard, and for the reason that
labor in this country is more independ-
ent. But the gold element controls the
situation, and o. prices decline employ
ers must either suspend business or re.
duce the wage standard.
II the purchasing power Of g dollar is
increased by legislation which creates q
still greater demand for gold, all prices
must decline and property values de-
crease correspondingly. Profits will also
diminish. and wages yield to the stern
demand Of necessity. Debts, however,
have no shrinking power. and, like the
gold dollar. will grow in capacity to
make trouble. for as prices and wages
fall. il will require more hours labor TO
pay them.
The restoration Of silver 10 it's rightful
place at the side Of gold as . money
metal will do much to bring back pros
perity and check the growing an~tagonism
between capital and labor. All voters.
rich or poor, who cast their ballots for
the retention Of the gold standard vote
to diminish their own prosperity.-Na-
