Dand silver In the ratio OF
In our opinion, the addrf IS
kains some very emphatic and
Very sensible suggestions. We make
the following extracts therefrom:
I'VE believe that the establishment
of gold as the only monetary stand
ard and the elimination of silver as
a full legal-tender money will increase
the purchasing power OF each dollar,
add to the burden of all debts, de
crease the market value of all other
forms of property, continue and in
tensify business depression, and
finally reduce the majority of the
people to financial bondage.
"We believe that no party can
hope for enduring success in the
United States SO long as it advocates
a single gold standard, and that the
advocacy of such a financial policy
would be especially fs tai to a party
which, like the Democratic party,
derives its voting strength from
those who may, without reproach,
be called the common people.
eve believe that large majority
of the Democrats of the United
States favor bimetallism aud realizr
that it can be only secured by the
restoration of the free and unlimited
coinage of gold and silver at the
present ratio, and we assert that the
majority have and should exercise
the right to control the policy of the
| party and retain the party name"

She is a picturesque figure. with her

She is bent somewhat under the weight of

evidences of a once commanding carriage,

Coogan, who represented the insurance
company; l.. r. Ellert of the California

THE LADIES TAINTED
A Runaway Horse Causes a Stampede
on the Corner of Jones and
Market Streets

A horse attached to cart, belonging to
David Dillon, contractor, ran away on
Seventh street yesterday afternoon about
O'Clock while the driver, James Bulger,
was In store. The animal tore up Seventh
street and at the corner of Market street
the cart struck hitching post, knocking
it over, and made diagonal cut for j. ].
o Brien & Co. S corner.
The front of the store was crowded with
ladies, and to their horror the horse dashed
on to the sidewalk and scattered them
right and left. One lady was knocked
down by the wheels and several tainted
from fear. They were carried into the
store, where they soon recovered. The lady
who was knocked down was more fright
ened than hurt.
The iron doors of the sidewalk elevator
on Market street were fortunately open,
and the wheels of the cart struck them
with such force as to capsize both horse
and cart. Sergeant Christensen hap
pened to be close by, AMI he sprang upon
the PROSTATE animals head and held II
down till others ran to his assistance, II
the wheels had not collided with the iron
doors the chances are that several hves
would have been lost, as the sidewalk was
crowded at the time all the way to Iaylef
street.
Bulger called at the City Prison to ips
qulre about his rig and was promptly AT
rested and booked for fast driving.
