except as he may have TO stand little
shave on the value to induce the other
man to buy. He then knows, II he did
not know 1t before. that the government
stamp ION the gold coin gave the metal
no additional value. But II the man had
ten silver dollars which were melted down
by the fire into one or more Jumps, his ex-
perIence would be widely different. Just
how much he could get for the melted
silver would depend on the market for
silver bullion. few weeks ago the value
would have been no more than A70 and
more recently 1t has been nearly as high
as $5.25, but the average value Of silver
In the coins is not far from IS, or just
about half the face value. The silver dol
lars have lost half their face value in
passing through the fire test while the
gold coins lost nothing. The half which
remains is real value. The half which
was burned away from the silver coins
was mere token of fiat value that dis
appears the moment the government
stamp becomes unrecognizable.

japan has the ambition to concern
herself about all the affairs Of the Pacific
ocean. In point of fact, she has risen to
the rank of first-class power, and 1t is
not strange that she should desire to
make her influence felt among all her
neighbors, and In all matters affecting
the isles Of the sea-" And It is entirely
probable that the mid-ocean republic,
Hawaii, will soon find Japan making her
power understood in its internal affairs
The Japanese in the Hawaiian Islands
It Is said, number about $4,000, having in,
creased about so per cent in ten years.
They are all loyal patriots, most of them
have received militia training, and they
include many of the wealthy and profess
sional classes A third of the male pop.
ulation Is Japanese, and already their
influence Is such that the consideration
shown them by the Dole government Is
much greater than that shown to either
Americans or Europeans. With the Chin
ese war ended, the mikado and his ad-
vlsors may well turn their attention more
seriously to other fields of conquest; and
It is not at all unlikely that they may
deem Hawaii a very desirable acquisition
In that case, however the United States
may have a word to say.

take a more potent means OF overcoming
the inactivity OF the organs that termi-
mates too frequently in fatal disease,
by resortIng to Hostetter's Stomach Bit

pulse to the renal organs to promote their
vigorous action without exciting them,
an effect too often produced by the fiery
and unmedicated stimulants OF commerce.

however, be stayed II they are met at the

bllity, nervousness, and the inhrmities
incident to age. 1t hastens convalescence
and is promotlve of sleep and appetite.

WHY do people complain Of hard
times. when any woman or man can
make from IS to SIG a day easily. All
have heard of the wonderful success
of tine Climax Dish Washer; yet many
are apt to think they can't make

money because every family wants one.
One agent has made $47S.36 in the last

and attending TO regular business be-
sides. You don't have to canvass; as

The self-sausfied tone of the London
press indicates that the English people
are highly pleased with the result Of the
their governments treatment Of the help,
less little republic Of Nicaragua. 1t ap-
pears, however, that their qualification
is not wholly over the fact that a feeble
country yielded to the demand of the
greatest naval power In the world, for
there is no glory in such triumph, but
is in part, and perhaps most largely,
derived from the belief that in connec-
tion with this matter the United States
has been taught lesson. With this
idea in mind tt is pretty broadly intimat-
ed by one journal that the lesson convey
ed is that this country's assumed posi-
tion Of arbitrator in controversies be-
tween the smaller American states and
Europe will not be countenanced or toll
Grated by European powers, or at any
rate by England, and then 1t is boast
fully and untruthfully declared that
ENGLAND has never played the part of
bully and never will, but she must be
careful to see that her good nature is
not too much presumed upon" Another
journal proclaIms that II Nicaragua has
played false I'VE will not occupy but
wipe Corlnto off the map and other places
with It," Perhaps these papers do not
accurately voice the general sentiment
Of Engllshmen, but the fair presumption
IS that they speak for large proportion
1f the English people.

money question, but the following ex-
tract from an interview had with him
at Chicago on April 26th shows the SEN
ator to be in perfect harmony with his
party In that important particular 81
am In favor of sound money" he said.
cold and silver have been the money of
nations for centuries and all that is
needed Is to establish the relative value
Of the two metals The question now Is
how can we place silver in circulation
and pass It current with gold? 1t is graft
flying, is It not, to know that a few men
can save our country by loanng us gold
to pay our current expenses? l presume,
however that Mr., Carlisle will be able
to get along until December without
calling an extra session of congress to
borrow more"
