too will die like the pauper and the
cripple and the beggar!"
The reflection g-ratified him; for of
the youth, of the beauty, of the for
tune, he was envious, and with all his
scorn Of higher intellect he despised the
chlldlille, happy, amorous temperament,
and the uncultured mind, which went
with them.
If l had only his wealth." he
thought often. "Or if he only had my
knowledge"
The sun was setting behind the
lstrian hills, and they depended on
their own oars to take them back to
Venice in the rose-hued dusk, and a
few seconds later the splash of the
canal water beneath the balcony told
his companion that the gondola was
moving.
1t was twelve o'clock when into the
empty brilliantly lighted room Andreis
entered and came across it to where
Damer sat on the balcony.

GUS triumph. The moonlight shone on
his dark, starry eyes, his laughing
mouth, his tall figure, full of grace and

patience.

Damer shrugged his shoulders and
looked regretfully at his papers and
pencils.
"Women only disturb one," he said,
ungraciously.
Andrcis laughed.

Alive by preference" said Damer.
The dead are little use to us; their
nervous system is still, like stopped

"A creature must suffer to interest
you?"
Certainly"
Andreis shuddcred slightly.

Damer smiled.
My dear prince, it is my duty to save

powers of resistance in conflict with
the destruction which was menacing

FREE COINAGE OF
SILVER.

The free and unlimited coinage Of
silver, the product of American mines,
at the old ratio of I6 Of silver to ] Of
gold, is the only solution of and
remedy for the disturbed and unsatis-
factory condition of trade, manufac-
ture and general business of the coun-
try. The surreptitious act of 1873,
divorcing silver and gold in our none
tary system, was a crime of untold
magnitude. 1t was the rankest kind
of class legislation in favor of the
wealthy against the producers of
wealth, and hostile to the prosperity
of the United States. 1t was an act
of treason because done at the instance
of a European syndicate and for bribe
money, "giving aid and comfort to
our country's enemies" To shield
the guilty parties, the we'll authenti-
Gated facts, often published, have been
vigorously denied.
The Enquirer will continue to ex-
pose this objectionable crime until
right and justice are done the people
by the full restoration of silver to its
old companionship with gold. We
need the assistance Of the people in
disseminating the truth, to which end
we invite all in your selection of pa

branch IS, making IL miles already CON
structed, equipped and in superb running
order; n miles, Oahfield TO Ashland,

Caribou to Van Buren, which may be
built next year or the year after. The
conception of this road on such grand
scale, its location and construction with
all the attending litigation and myriad diff.
fieulties Was work of magnitude. The
successful tinanciering Of it approached
the marvellous. The first step was the
loan by the county of 81 200 per mile.
the second the subscribing of the neces.
sary stock by men of wealth. the third
the selling of bonds. This Work re.
