THERE can be no double standard
of money. 1t will be the gold stand
ard or the silver standard. 1t is
gold now, with large use of silver.
Is it to be changed to silver, with
no gold? This is the only money
question before the country. What
would be gained by the change? We
should have an inferior standard of
money; consequently speculations
in money, discounts on money,
fiuctuating prices, uncertain valu-
atoms, exchanges running heavily
against us, wages failing to respond
to advances in other prices, and all
the evils that the experience of the
ages shows must follow the adopt
ion of an inferior money standard.
Free coinage of silver would mean

ance of gold, and silver monometal-

Mr.. CLEVELAND now realizes that
if he attempts to carry out his an
nounced programme of compelling
every Federal office-holder, large
and small, to take an active part in
the fight against silver which he
has started inside the Democratic
party, he will have an open revolt
on his hands. Prominent silver
Democrats are giving Mr.. Cleveland
chance to back down by publicly
stating their belief that Mr. Cleve-
land has been misrepresented, and
that he never had any such inten-
ton. OF course they know that he
did have that intention, and they
fear that he still has it. 1t is well
known that large majority of the
Federal officials in the South and
West are silver men, and Grover
may be read out of his party if he
persists in carrying out his program.

Mr.. CLEvELAND's implied rebuke

standard was about the same sort
Of rebuke that certain class of
merchants are in the habit of CIV
ing their clerks in the presence of
some customer VINO complains of
having been duped by misrepresen-
tation. 1t will be noticed that Mr..
Cleveland did not once say in the
interview he furnished the press
that he did not agree with Secretary
Morton. He contented himself by
saying that Mr. Morton had not
been authorized to speak for him.
The only mistake made by Secre-
tary Morton was in supposing that
Mr. Clegeland was willing to have
his opinion expressed to the public
just as he had expressed them to
the Cabinet.

SENATOR JcNEs, of Nevada, who
was prevented from visiting Colo
RADIO with Congressman Sibley and
General Warner, by an attack of la
grippe makes the following sensible
suggestions:
'If all the silver delegates would
bolt from the Republican conven-
ton when a gold standard man is
mentioned, as all gold delegates will
surely bolt from the Democratic
convention if silver man is named,
we could not have a more fortunate
situation created for us. We should
then for the first time have full
field and square issue. The silver
delegates to Republican conventions
must be made by their constituents
to understand that it is absolutely
essential that they should bolt. That
would be the only logical course, if
they are sincere in their present
statements to the effect that they
believe the Republican convention
will name free coinage man."
This is exactly what was advoca-
ted by the TINES in the campaign
of 1892. and the delegates from
this county to the Republican State
convention in Virginia, with two
exceptions, were of the same opin-
ion. The idea did not carry in the
convention, however, and as the
TINES predicted, the voters of the
State left the Republican ranks be-
cause they had become thoroughly
convinced that that party was not
sincere in its protestations of friend
ship to free coinage. If Republi-
cans, or Democrats either, had fear
lessly demanded of their delegates
to the national conventions to bolt
the convention if straight, out
and-out free coinage man was not
named for the Presidency, this
country would have had free coin
age long ago. There are always
enough hide bound, political teat-
suckers in the old party State con-
~ventions, however, to prevent said
bodies from pledging the delegates
to national conventions to do any
thing. That is why the Silver
Party was formed in Nevada, and
also the cause of National Silver
Party being formed. 1t is compos-
ed of men who are not afraid to be
pledged on the silver question.
They consider it the foremost ques-
ton of Importance to the country,
and are ready and willing at all
times to cast everything-party and
ALTO one side to battle for the
white metal.

Over all diseases caused by or arising

Please read the following frank letter
of Mr.. Freely, voluntarily endorsed by
the Postmaster and Druggist Of the town:
&C. /. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass:
"My wife sprained her ankle ten years
ago. It apparently got well, being little
larger than the other ankle: Three years

and the doctor of this place could not do
anything to benefit my wife's case. We
moved to Los Angeles by the advice OF
the doctor and had other physicians. !
then took my wife to the hospital, and the
surgeons scraped all the flesh around the
sores. They almost healed up, but soon
after, two little Bpecks came, one on each
side of the first sore. The doctors said
they would not amount to anything, but
in . few days they turned out to be more
ulcers, and in short time they had eaten
into the original sore and made big
wound. The surgeon decided an
Operation Must Be Performed.
My wife would not consent to this so we
rested matters for a few days. Happening
to meet another physician who said he
could cure her limb in four weeks we con-
sented to have him treat the case. After
he had doctored Ave months there were
seven ulcers In place Of one when he COM
menced. He finally said my wife would
never get well. was about discouraged,
and went home and threw away all the

cost the king about tl30, 900.
The collection of English books is far
from approaching completeness. but

mary number of rarites. Few Libraries
in the United States equal in mum Der or

The collection of MSS. is equal in i'm

the second century before Christ to our
own times. The museum is rich in early
Anglo-SaXon and Latin codices. such as
the charters of King Edgar and Henry

Irish texts the museum can boast an
early copy of the Had, and one of the

large.

present Lenox library, which occupies
the Fifth avenue block between Seventy
first and Seventy second streets. There
is some talk of buying all the rest of the
land running esat to Madison avenue and
erecting "a huge building on the suqare.
This would make a noble structure and
would give ample room for the immense
array of books and their proper classical
ton.
The great advantage that the European
Libraries have over those in this country
is that they are governmental institu-
tions, and the local authorities of st.
Petersburg, Paris and London have the
power to compel all publishers to donate
copies of everything they publish. This
of itself is great aid and the Biblio-
theque Rationale of Pairs gains at least
80, 900 volumes year by these methods.

one OF the greatest Libraries in the world.
The coalition of the Astor, LenoX and
Tilden libraries under one great roof and

with a million and half of volumes and
manuscripts. At present this country

or the Bibliotheque Rationale of Paris,
though in the number of Libraries the
United States copmares favoraby with
any nation. But in the matters of COM

founded the library. The number of vol
umes in the library. which is on the
ground floor of Parliament house, is
computed to be 265 900. OF the special
collections the most important are the
Asteoga collection of old Spanish books,
purchased by the faculty for $4,000 in
1924; the Thorkelin collection. CONSISTING

history and antiquities of the northe I'll

The library of Trinity college, Dublin,
originated in the year 1901, when the
English army determined to commemo-
rate their victory over the Spanish troops
at kinsale by some permanent monu-
ment. Accordingly they subscribed ElS00
to establish a library in the University of
Dublin. All of the books were at first de-
posted IN Dublin castle and it was only
after the Restoration that the college OBJ
tanned them. The library now contains
1872. 900 volumes ana 1880 MSS. About
5000 volumes are added every year.
Paris is much better provided with
great public libarries than London or any
city in the old world Besides the Bipli-
otheque Rationale. there are several other
Libraries, each having over 1901 900 vol
umes. Paris can claim the largest library
in the word in the Bibliotheque Nation
ale. The real foundation of the institu-
ton. which was formerly known as the
Bibliotheque de Moi, may be said to date
from King John, the Black Prince S
captive, who had considerable taste for
books and who bequeathed his royal
library of MSS. to his successor. Charles
"
Charles V. organized his library in the

library was given place in that structure.

trustees of his estate thought New York
was Just the place for the cole ton. and
in due time the books arrived and were
installed in the little library.

dignity of a board of trustees. who collect

the Revolution it suffered but was again
doomed by the old Knickerbockers, whose

estate. and as the town grew the library
people sold out and moved no:thward
BY repeated sales the $4,000 now represents
real estate worth quarter of million.
Since the Revolution the City library,
as it is called. has had but six Librarians.
They were Isaac l.. Kipp, from 1893 to
