w. c.. Lloyd, a wOrkingman, liv-
ing at No. &C White av., in the
Eighteenth ward, Cleveland, O.,
first bought Ripans Tabules of Ben
field, the druggist. In an interview
had with him on the Sth of May,
1895, by a reporter named A.. b.
Calhoun, residing at 1747 East Mad
ison av., Cleveland. Mr.. Lloyd said
that he was at present out of a job,
but expected to go TO work next
week at the Bridge works. Any

been out of employment since last

mended to me as a good n and
with quite a reputation. He gave me
medicines of all kinds for nearly
six weeks and | got no benefit that
could see. In fact don't believe
he knows what is the matter with
me. A friend of mine called n
evening and told me he had been
using RipanS TabuleS for 4 short
time. and had found any
thiLs that helped his stomach and

did. He handed me a circular about
them, which | read, and concluded

Financial Facts.

baltimore Sun a correspondent
is informed that the dollar is our
money unit, and cent is the Tooth
part of it, having value because 100
cents can be exchanged for the dol
lar. The commercial value of dol
lar is the value of the metal i'm il -,
the stamp on it being merely GER
tification by the government that it
has certain weight and fineness.-
In transactions within the United
States this truth is obScured by the
success of the governments policy
of keeping lightweight silver dollars
and even greenhaCks (promises to
pay dollars AT par with gold dollars
by means Of gold reserve, but il is
made clear when transactions be-
tween different countries are consid-
cred. In International commerce
coin passes virtually by weight and
the government stamp gives it no
value. Our silver dollar, though
worth intrinsically only about 80
cents, passes for 100 cents because,
by the act of 1890, the government
is pledged to the policy of keeping
all dollars at par with the gold dol.
lar, which is effected, rs already
stated, by keeping up reserve of
gold (Sl00,000,00O) to exchange for
other dollars on demand. 1t was the
fear that the government would not
longer be able to maintain this policy
owing to the run on the gold re-
serve-that caused the recent panic,
and it is President Cleveland's de-
termined borrowing of gold to main
tain the reserve that has restored
confidence and prosperity. Gold
does not now circulate as plentifully
AZ in former times because people
prefer to handle paper money when
the latter is redeemable in gold on
demand.
AT the close of President Cleve-
lands first term, In March, 1889, the

the treasury had available S296, $50

Is no doubt of great revival of
business throughout the country and
we note the fact with much satisfac-
ton. Brddstreet'S issue of the 9th

being that more than 100000 in
dustrial workers have received an
advance averaging about 10 per cent.
AT the East the most active trade

revival among the iron and steel in

most favorable condition of bust

ment Is reported from the South,
rains continuing to be damaging to
agricultural interests and to check
business in Texas, while at South
Atlantic and Gulf State cities the
quiet movement of staple goods
and fair or unsatisfactory collections

But advices from nearly all the cit
les reported appear to agree that
wholesale dealers in nearly all lines
are greatly encouraged as to the out
look for business during the autumn,
believing that the demand will be

lT is the belief that Japan will use
large part of the war indemnity
which China is to pay her for the
purpose Of materially increasing her
navy. The financial resources of
Japan will be very abundant during
the coming year, as she will receive
over 500, 100000 before next May,
and thereafter about $50, 200, 900 a

conferred upon him by Wilberforce
University Mr.. Cleveland writes
(" l am very much gratified by the

versity in expressing their desire
to confer upon me the degree of

tain my consistency by foregoing
their kindly intention. You and
they may feel sure that l will
take the will for the deed,n and
be as much gratified by the action
they have already taken as if the
degree were actually conferred.
We think Mr.. Cleveland has set
good example and the colleges and
universities of the country would do
well to learn lesson from what he
says. The practice Of comforting
honory degree has been 80 badly
abused of late years that these de-
grees have almost ceased to be re-
garded as honors. They are often
conferred upon men who make no
pretensions to scholarship and whose
regulations hardly extend beyond
the limits of the counties or towns
in which they reside. They 90
largely by favor, are often applied
for by the candidate, and are con-
terred or refused as the applicant has
or has not a pull upon the powers
which confer them. 1t is time to
call halt. .

In the broom factory, so in the net

making clothes. The women are

TO feed these 500 prisoners it takes

week, dinner and supper, 10 pounds
Of rice and hominy every day, ~
pounds Of coffee, ~ gallons Orleans
molasses, IL bushels of potatoes,
twice a week, and 210 pounds of
beans which are served every meal.
The convicts march in regular order
and are seated by the tap Of a gong
at three long tables. Another tap
starts them to eating, which opera
ton IL allowed to continue Is min

time is up, he is required to turn
away from the table, still keeping
his seat, however, until the Is min

litical situation: 1.-TWO or three
months ago l wouldn't have given a
copper for the chances of the Demo

been marked change in public sen.
timent, due largely to the improve
ment that has taken place through
out the country. Cattle have gone
up, so has wheat, so has cotton, 80
has iron, so have wages. All these
things rebound to the credit of the
party, and my belief is that it will
triumph in 1896"
