which goes up in the market at its
market value, just as your bale OF cot
ton, hogshead of tobacco, or bushel Of
wheat goes up on the foreign market
at its value. I assert and maintain
that it is the duty of the Congress of
the United States to establish and
maintain a financial system responsive
to the necessities and convenience Of
the seventy millions of people that We
represent without regard to the world.
Silver must have its place in the policy
of this country, and the parties of 1895
may well look to it as an issue which
will not go down, but which must be
heard and answered"
In answer TO the question whether
the United States should establish its
financial policy in conformity with the
financial policies of other commercial
countries. Senator Harris said:
II want TO suggest that 1 got up the
statistics in the latter part of the year
1898, showing the results of our foreign
and interstate commerce for twenty
preceding years. The balance of trade
with other countries was against US
only four of the twenty years, and ag-
gregating for the four years less than
SIC, 1000, goo, while for the sixteen other
years of the twenty. the balance of
trade was in our favor, averaging over
$4,000, 900 a year.
while 1 would be glad to have an
international agreement to utilize all
the gold and all the silver Of the world,
at an agreed ratio 1 am ready to es-
tahlish financial system for the
United States which does recognize
both metals, and makes them legal ten
der for all purposes. and admits them
to the same rights in coinage.
up to 1873. gold and silver held their
respective places as the money metals
of the world. but in 1873 the capitalist
influence not only of the United States
but of the commercial world. decided
to double the purchasing power of their
capital by characterization of one or
the other of the metals. no matter
which, so that demonetizing either
one the volume. or amount. of money
would be reduced one-half which
would double the purchasing power of
every remaining dollar.
Capital has leisure. capital has in
fluence. capital has power. but unfor-
tunately capital has no conscience.
Capital had silver demonetized when
412 1-2 grains of standard silver dollar
was worth on the markets of the world
cents more than q gold dollar, and
capital and its cohorts are now ram
pant in urging the adoption of the gold
standard and reducing everything to
that gold standard

MORE BODIES RECOVERED.
Remains of johnson and Nielsen
Washed Up by the Waves.

Lehi, April 21.-When news was re-
ceived at Provo late Saturday night
that the bodies of Andrew Johnson
and Alfred Nelson had been found on
the shore OF Utah lake, the excitement
here became very great and the news
of the triple tragedy spread with
lightning rapidity, and but a few mo-
Tnents elapsed until it was the sole
topic Of the entire town 1t is many
years since, Ia fact, it is doubtful if
there ever was in the history Of Utah
such a cruel and terrible murder as
the one recently committed at Pelican
Point. The fact that such a crime has
'eeen committed can hardly be cred
dted by the lew abiding citizens of
Utah county. That such foul ard in
human slaughter of innocent young
men should occur within twelve miles
OF the county seat of one of the prin-
ciple counties Of this territory and
remain undiscovered for two months.
seems incredible; but such is the case
and what seems more astounding is
that since the deed has been discovered
the officers of the law are so far at a
loss to account for Its commission and
have but doubtful clues upon which
20 work in bringing to justice the
guilty parties. Every avenue of infor-
mation at present seems blocked and
the vigilant officers are apparently in
the dark as 10 what move TO make in
order TO reveal the truth of the trans
action. For the past four days the Of
ficers have been working day and
n,ghl, following carefully little cir
cunlstances and Details believing they
were in the possession Of facts which.
would ultimately bring to light the
FIilty parties. But today all their
nc pes seem blighted, their supposed
cluL have vanished, and their the
cries of the crime exploded.
WI IN news was received on Satur-
oav night that two bodies had just
been found, The Herald at once sent

scene of the murder.
The bodies were found about 8
o'clock Saturday afternoon by Harry

Not Unprecedented.

Toledo, Ohio, April 21.-In reference to
the statement from Cincinnati regarding
the alleged corner in rye, Frank King,
of the grain firm of c. A King & Co., sof
this city, said this evening:
Neither Toledo nor Chicago probably
will be affected by the reported corner in,
rye. Last week there were. but 1900
bushels at this point. Any rye ordered
from Chicago or Toledo would be shipped
direct to the distillers None of the cereal
is held for speculative purposes. 1t is
not unprecedented that rye has gone
higher than wheat"
