There b an astonishing amount of
mystification about the term ~bimetal-
ISM" State conventions in several
states are using it as il it were possible
to believe In himetalism and the gold
standard at the same time. Thus, one
Democratic convention recently 10
solved In favor of bimetalism, but went
on to state, in effect that it meant the
use Of gold, silver and paper, all main
tanned at par with gold. But that is
not bimetalism at ali. No man Is a BIZ
metalist who wants silver to be coined,
and paper to be issued, redeemable in
gold only, or its intrinsic value meas
ured only. Bimetalism is the unlimi.
ted use of gold and silver for money for
every purpose for which money is used.
History demonstrates that the varian-
ces in the production Of each metal,
though at times large, have never, in
the long run Of century, failed to of.
set and balance each other, SO that the
joint use of both on fixed ratio has
given an ample and staple currency ba-
sis to the worlds business. At no
period in history has the production of
either silver or gold alone been enough
to keep up the worlds business. At no
period in history has the production of
either silver or gold alone been enough
to Keep up the worlds necessary 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
England's and Germany's lead, to ig-
more that necessity and do business on
gold alone.-New York Recorder.

MONEY FOR LEGISLATORS

NEW YORK, October 1S.-Charles H
Light, treasurer Of the Soda Water Man-
ufacturers' Association, concluded his evil
dence before the Lexow police investigating
committee today. He positively asserted
that the $500 paid to John Brodsky was
to have an ordinance passed by the board of
aldermen
1T was a common thing" said he, "to
get up collections and presents for the
captains. We charged the stand owners s.
rent besides, and this money went for the
captains. The collection for Capt. Schultz
did not surprise me-"
Here the witLess' communcativeness
ceased. He was asked what Johnny Brods
KY did with the $500 which tie Manu-
facturers Protective Association turned
over to him.. ,
The witness finally said the money was
paid Brodsky for legal services.
Come, now, wasn't the money tax not
In the city budget?" asked Senator Lexow.
Yes" reluctantly replied the witness.
How much did you raise the year previ-
ous?'
"A thousand dollars"
And that went to prevent police inter-
ference with the stands that INSTRUCTED the
sdewalks?'
Yes"
"Who got the money!"
Il don't know now. The money was col
lected for all the downtown captains"
The witness then declined to speak fur

for the present.

~ RE'kED 4 CAR WHEEL.
B- and o. Train Runs Over n D,ua-
Matte Cartridge.

PITSrBUI;G. Va, October 1s-What is
believed to have been a desperate ATTEMPT
at train robbery was made last night near
this city. on the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
rad At = O'Clock an east-bound accommo-
Cation train ran over a dynamite cartridge
near Bissell. at very lonely spot, about
fifteen miles from Pittsburg. The fiange of
one wheel was blown OF. and one end of a
coach Was wrecked. AS the train had
nearly reached the end OF its trip. there
were few passengers aboard, and no one
WAS injured.
An examination OF the track was made
sn1 two more powerful dynamite CARTRIDGES
were found on the rails. Had the train
been running fast IL would have exploded all
thre" cartridges and have been totally
rocked.
IL l. believed that the intention Wa to
wreck the mail and express. a through train
from the east. due few minutes later but
the robbers made a mistake and placed the
Cartridge on the east-bOund track instead
OF The T-st-bOund. Arrests are expected to-
day.
