ahead of what he himself paid for the
goods. He got rid of the whole stock
of 100000 in less than a week An
other thing that he did after the
campaign in which Gen. Harrison was

The purchase upon which he said he
had made the most money and had the
most fun out of was what he called a
sleeper. "A sleeper" he said, sis any
thing that peddler can get hold of
at bankrupt sale that the rest of the
bidders don't tumble to the value Of"
The particular sleeper that he had
reference to was 100 dozens of photo

but they were out of date, and the
man who had them couldn't even give
them away. apparently, because the
books had no pages to hold imperial
photographs. He bought the entire 100
dozens for S.. The next day he put
them on the market at 10 cents apiece
and sold them out by nightfall. He
did the same thing with 5000 assorted
6iSh1
lain that had been manufactured with
the idea that they could be sold for SO
a dozen. He put them on the market
at III cents apiece, and said afterWard
that ne made five cents apiece cel
them. One of his specialties was dis
posing of puzzles that failed to make

the provisions adopted when either

sharp contrast between the two ex-

This is a big country, and there is
room in it for good many arrant
fools on currency questions. That was
made very plain some twenty years
ago, when the rag baby counted it's
worshipers by myriads. But the
sane people are always in a decided
majority, and as soon as they are
brought to understand the question
their verdict is not in doubt. They
crushed the life out of the rag baby
and raised the currency from a shift
ing paper level to a solid gold level.
They will take similar action on the
present issue. The bag of wind which
the free coinage men are blowing out
so vigorously is bound to collapse the
moment it comes in contact with the
national vote.

the claim that the price of wheat has
sympathetically declined equally with
silver. In 1865 wheat was worth,
measured by the greenback standard,
so cents a bushel on the farm. The
greenback was worth 46 cents, which
would make the wheat, if measured
as now by gold, worth about 81 cents.
When the farmer took his 80 cents
and made his purchases, he would
not then be able to buy as much as
he now can with the 40 cents that was
the farm average last fall.
