We clip the following from the
Centralia Courier: J. M. Daniel
and J. Fl. Carter, two of Audrain' s
most energetic and prosperous citi-
zens, returned Saturday from a
weeks fishing trip near Santa Fe.
Your correspondent was informed
by one of these gentlemen that they
were very lucky in securing a goodly
number of the 6nnv tribe. If we
are not mistaken this is invariably
the luck OF the maj aiority of fishing
parties. Now we believe these gen.
tlemen should, in order to have
confirmed this statement, have had
in their possession at least a part Of
this goodly number for the con-
sumption Of their families and
neighbors. However, from the fact
that we failed to notice the result of
this good luck in their possession,
we are led to believe that it is rather
early for fishing or else these gentle
men were fish hungry and consumed
this goodly number before reaching
home,

The Original Pafenf.

The first recorded patent in this
country was taken out July 81, 1870,
by Samuel Hopkins for an improved
mothed of making potash, and the
second was issued August 6 of the
same year to J. S. Sampson for
cradle mold. There have been scores
of patents along the same line of
industry since these two, but as
pioneers these are very interesting.
Most of the early patents related to
household industry, and furnish EVIL
denee that even at that early day the
Yankee ingenuity was busy.

ANexchange, referring to theC Coxey
movement on Washington, says:
Congress cannot afford to recognize
Coxeyism as the voice of the people
or to admit that the agitation is JUS
tilted by conditions. 1t cannot ex-
tend sympathetic welcome to men
whose organization is based on slim
pretense, of whose antecedents and
records nothing is known, who are
. posing as impecunious tramps and
who have not hesitated to dIspoii
private property and to scorn the diff
ference between meum and tuum. 1t
is true that the country has passed
through season of somewhat unus-
ual hardship and discomfort, but it
is not true that humanity has been
lacking in the means or ability or
inclination 10 provide in the main for
the destitute and the unemployed.
The proportion of those who have
been unemployed and neglected is
small as compared with those whose
disinclination to work has been the
root of trouble. 1t is an open and
notorious tact that the so-called labor
agitator is the most dangerous factor
of American industrial life. A man
of whom few people have heard sud-
denly blossoms out as cham pion of
labor, and Immediately he is taken
to the bosom of American people, his
utterances are carried far and wide
and he is magnified into prophet
and leader. In this way have arisen
our Dennis Kearneys, our George
Francis Trains, our Herr Mosts and
our Coxeys, men who thrive on
notrioety and the gullibility of a peo-
pie fond Of excitement and agitation.
If this foolishness is carried step
further; !; if these blatant trouble mon-
gers are welcomed to Washington,
coddled by Congress and treated as
distinguished guests; if the lawless-
ness and violence of their followers
are overlooked and condoned, where
will fanaticism stop and when will
the Government be safe?

quence to the Democratic party. But

false friends or rash ones in the

The idea of charging up to the
Democratic party all the evils re-
sulting from Republican misrule for
80 years, all the evils resulting from
droughts, pestilence and famine, of
competition of rates and markets of
supply and demand, of idleness.

other poor equipments in any re-
speet for the great battle OF life
where its great rewards go to energy,
intelligence, quickness, opportunity,
sducation, skill, adaptation, assist
snce, strength, cooperation, per-
eeption-the idea of forsaking the
sound principles OF free government
on this account is to me one of the
marvels of inconsistency and folly.
1t only shows how every man is
prone to ascribe all his misfortunes
to his neighbor, personal or politi-
cal, rather than look at his own
shortcomings for their true solution.

want to say another thing in this
connection that may startle some
good Democrats who have become
welded to the idea that there is but
one way to reach bimetallism, i. E.,
by the free and unlimited coinage OF
silver, and that is, that the Presi
dents purpose is as resolutely bent
on reaching that great restoration OF
silver on basis that will preclude
all possibility of disturbance of its
relation to gold as any he ever had,
and time will vindicate this belief,
and not in a great while, either. OF
course, every fellow who can see as
far into this subject as ne can into a
a milestone will howl with derision
at this idea, but the vast majority of
impartial, dispassionate, thoughtful
members of the Democratic party,in
Congress and throughout the coun-
try, are rapidly coming to this con-
clusion. Now, l voted not only for
the seigniorage bill, but also to pass
it over the veto, so | am voicing the
conclusion of one who has shown
invariably stern opposition to the
single standard.
That veto does not show that the
President is in favor of the single
standard, and | am not at all pre-
pared to confidently assert that his
course and policy will not ultimately
be the better one to restore silver to
Its uses, functions and quality of
value. But, Joe, my dear old boy,
it is folly and idle for Democrats to
quarrel with each other and with
their party at such a crisis as con-
fronts us. No party ever has, ever
will or ever can harmonic on
the thousands of details and meth
DDS when carrying out great prin-
ciples and measures of reform. 1t
is out of these very honest and nat
lural differences of opinion among
your political opponents and poll
tical associates that legislation is ac-
compllshed along the general line of
the party's platform. 1t is out of
the honest difference of opinion be-
tween individuals in their every day
transactions that courts adjust their
claims equitably.
Why should we cast off our feal-
ty to such party as ours because
great masses of our fellow-associates
who are just as able, honest, tried
and true, who have stood by us for
the third OF a century trying to Sc
cure the triumphs of Democratic
principles, differ with others of us as
to which is the better road to travel
to arrive at bimetallism, and after
arriving to stay there? Now, if
any man can answer fairly that
question and give any good reason
for turning his back on his party for
one that is in every respect just the
opposite of every principle he ever
believed in, | would like to hear it.
Don't you do it, my dear boy, nor

Nav Forecasts by Hicks,


The month opens at the end Of
April's closing storm period, with
storm disturbances disappearing in
extreme eastern parts of the country,
and cooler weather prevailing in
central and western sections. An
equinox of Mercury is central on the
3rd, and will cause cloudiness and
tendency to continued drizzle. In
the extreme north sleet need not
prove surprise. By the 4th de-
cided change to warmer will develop
in the west, and during the 9Th to
9TH, reactionary storms will pass
over the country, being central
about the time OF new moon on the
10Th. A sharp change to cooler will
follow the disturbances at this time,
with strong probabilities of frost
along the northern side of the coun-
try from about 7th to 10th.
From 10th to 14th is the next
regular period of change and storm.
A very warm wave is apt to appear
by the 18th, in western regions, and
during the three days next following
storms of much energy and wide
scope will traverse the country
from west to east. Another very
cool wave for the season will come
in behind the storms, causing sew
eral days of much cooler weather in
the country generally. Heavy rains
may be reasonably expected during
the last named disturbances-name
ly, about the 11th, 18th and 18th,
during which time series OF daily
storms, recurring near the same time
of day, or night, for several days
need not be unlocked for. Watch
barometers, temperature and direc-
ton of wind; if barometer fails to
rise after one storm passes, with
wind still in east and south, expect
another storm from the west, and so
on until conditions change.
From 21st to 25th falls the next
storm period, during which time it
will grow very warm, and many
storms OF rain, thunder and wind
will appear. About the 9th and
2Sth will be central, the last disturb.

AN exchange, which claims to be
very strongly in favor of both gold
and silver on parity, says that it is
very evident that some of the silver
men want to establish a silver stand
ard. LAS evidence of this fact the
Coinage Committee in the House re-
fused to introduce the Meyer coinage
bill, but is going to force consider
alton of free coinage bill, knowing
full well the President would veto
the same, even if it did pass. The
Meyer bill provides for the coinage
of the silver bullion now owned by
the Government, and at the same
time gives the Secretary of the Treas
ury power to issue 8 per cent, short
time bonds for the purpose of replen-
ishing the gold in the treasury when
ever the Secretary shall deem such
action necessary. There is no
question but that the friends of silver
know that Cleveland would sign the
bill if passed. Referring to this mat
ter the paper referred to says: A
great majority of the people of the
United States believe in bimetallism
and desire to see silver restored 10 its
former position in the money system
of this country and of the world. But
a majority, just as great, is opposed
to the adoption of a single silver
standard, and opposed to the re-
pudiation of half the debts of the
country which would result from that
action. Bland evidently has an idea
that the country is behind him in his
fight. He should be given to under
stand that the bimetallists of the
United States are honest advocates
of gold and silver, ,and not pretenders,
whose real desire and object is to es-
tablish single silver standard and
thereby scale down honest debts.
