A FAvoRITE argument of the gold
standard people is that spectators would
reap immense profits by buying silver at
a low price and having it coined into
dollars, the purchasing power of which
would be double the bullion value of the
metal They may not know any better
than that in the east, but out here it
would be hard to find man who would
be such fool as to sell silver bullion for
sixty cents an ounce to a Spectator when
he could take it to the mint and get 81 20
in coin for it. The monometallists must
find something new to offer if they wish
to check the progress of the SILVER
craze" All the old arguments have been
exploded. The people can't be fooled
by them any longer, neither can they be
frightened by the cry that gold will leave
the country. They have become accus-
toned to seeing gold leave both the
treasury and the country and it no longer
possesses any terrors.

Rhodes seemed bewildered for moment
when the center plates were flashed on
him and could not tell exactly why they
had had them made for a whist table.
He finally explained that while they had
no use for the holes, the table would look
better with the brass piece in the center,
but that after the pieces were made they
had concluded they would look too much
like poker tables with them, and they
were not put on. It was shown also
that Rhodes did nothing else while he
had this room.
Arguments were made by both Mr..
Hungate for the city and by Mr.. Dom for
the defense, and the decision held till to-
morrow.
In case Rhodes is found guilty the
cases of Dom, Frank Hughey, Harry

Otherwise they will be dismissed be-

the session being prolonged beyond the
sixty days for which the members draw

gave it serious thought. You can
always depend upon the average legis-
