Peary Relief Expedition.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., September g.
The first news from the Peary re-
lief expedition since its departure
was received today. 1t came by
schooner John M. Mckenzie, return
ing from the Greenland halibut fish
cry. AT HolsteinbGrg the Kite took
aboard Prof, Dyche, one of the mem
bers of the expedition, and sailed
again the same evening. Very little
ice was reported south of Greenland
waters. The crew Of the Mckenzie
think the Kite will have no difficulty
in reaching Whales Sound, where
Peary's headquarters are located.
The return of the relief party is ex-
pected about the end of this month.

Cripple Creek, Col, will soon hold
a carnival Of sports at which the
principal feature is to be genuine
bull fight, after the Spanish fashion,
with all the fxings and trimmings.
A pen 140 feet in diameter has been
constructed and seats to accommo-
date 10000 persons are to be built
around it. Two toreadors from
Mexico City have been engaged to
conduct the fight. This, it is claim
ed, will be the first real bull fight
ever given in the U. S. The local
authorities say the fight will be pre-
vented, but the management is con-
fdent of being able to ''juggle the
law" until the fight is over.

"What will the gold standard do for
the workingman?" asks the editor of an
alleged labor paper, The answer is easy.
1t viii continue to do Just what it has
been doing whenever adopted. 1t will
furnish him with standard Of values
which makes it certain that his wages
will not fall through q decline in their
purchasing power, It will enable him
to buy more goods Of all kinds than If
he received cheaper money. 1t will guar
antee him against being paid in de-
preoiated or hEctuating currency 1t
will make his deposits In the savings
bank worth as much year or five years
hence as they are now,
By giving business q stable financial
basis it will enable his employers to
run their business steadily, thus insur-
ing him against loss Of work through
the unsettlement of industry, which
would exist under the silver standard.
1t will help extend our foreign trade by
keeping our commerce on the same ba-
sis as that of the leading nations Of the
world, and thus aid in making markets
for his surplus products 1t will serve
his best interests by encouraging the
accumulation of capital and its invest
ment in productive industry and so add
ing to the demand for labor. 1t will
create a common interest between all
countries having the same standard,
and thus tend to diminish the national
jealousies and wars which in the long
run injure most the workingman. It
will give him the standard of values
used by all the highest wage paying
countries Of the earth, instead of that
used by the Chinese, Hindoos and Mex
scans These are some of the things
which the gold standard will do for the
workingmah. Will the 80 cent dollars
10 as much?

The Southern States have now
nearly one-fourth of the cotton
factories of the country and the
great increase of this industry in
that section during the last few
