Cannot Wonder At ProhibitiOnists Leav.
ing the Church.

We cannot wonder that men and
women whose personal experience
and investigations have led them
into a full realization Of the eenormity
Of the liquor evil, and who have con-
ceived an undying hatred for the
liquor business on that account, find
il hard to retain an active connec
ton with any religious body too
apathetic, too ignorant OF too indif-
fcrent to ally itself openly and un
compromisingly against the accur-ed
thing. We believe, however, tina,
the church will right itself on this
question, and that soon To believe
otherwise would be to doubt thai
the church has place in the divin,
D. der Of the world.-Christian Al

When you got married To the
brightest and best looking girl in
the county, says the Georgetown
News, where did you look for notice
that meant so much to you, and so
little to nearly everybody else? To
your home paper.
/ When your home was invaded by
the blue-eyed girl, or the bouncing
baby boy, to whom did you make it
your business to convey early infor-
nation as To the sex, the time and
the weight? To the editor of that
home paper.
In after years, when some manly
young fellow takes the blue-eyed
girl to home of his own, OIL your
once bouncing boy-now mans
given partnership in the store be
cause he has Just brought home
somebody else's daughter and set
up an establishment of his own, to
whom do you personally exhibit the
wedding presents and load up with
the brides cake, and to whom do
you look for complete description
of the interesting event down TO the
last pickle fork and individual salt,
whi h once more means SO much
for you and few others, and so
little to anybody else? To this same
editor of that same home paper.
And when trouble comes in the
home, and you add to your posses
sions that desolate bit Of reality, the
lot in the cemetery, and somehow
the sun doesn't seem to shine Just
as it used to, and the fiutter of crepe
at the door. and the odor of the
tuberose in the front parlor, and the
chair that has for years been beside
yours at the tireside and opposite
you at the table is vacant-when all
this happens, who makes it his
business to write in tender strain OF
the one whose life has grown TO be
a part Of yours, and whose sym
pathy and good deeds to others have
long been known and recognized, il
never publicly announced?
The editor of the home paper
and he's only too willing to do the
little that he can to help you ovel
the hard spot in the road.
: And all the Sc years you've adver
tised in this home paper and done
what you could to help the edito
to fight your battles in municipa
and county matters, and encouraged
him as he has worked to build W
the town and bring business to it
How is it? Have you?-Ex.

An exchange expresses few
points Of weakness in some women
in this language: "a Philadelphia
gill is so modest that she will moi

server is in the same room. A
Tabor seminary girl declines to walk

will come in short pants. A Malvern

room with potatoes until she has
picked out their eyes.

watch has hands. An Emerson

Ex-Gov. John +. st. John, when
in Philadelphia a few days since,
said to a correspondent of The
People: "We must take up the
financial questions of the day and
discuss them if the Prohibition party
is to grow. We have i in our ma
tional platform and yet we never
touch upon them. 1t was useless
to talk prohibition to a farmer who
had mortgage on his farm foot
thick and no saloon in his township,
or perchance in his county. We
must let the people know that we
are able to take charge Of the finances
of the government. In Pennsyl-
vania and other states the Populists
had doubled their vote. 1t is more
politics we want and less singing.
He criticised the bond issue, where
by Wall street took all the bonds,
paid for them in paper, and got the
interest in gold; at this rate he said
we might increase our debt 5000,
600. 900 and yet not increase the
volume Of currency one dollar. The
farmers were turning towards the
Populists because they promised
them something. The vote shows
it. Mr.. St. John analyzed the vote
and said: The question with me is
how long cah we hold on to the
rising voters. They will get tired
Of seeing no signs Of progress. In
this city you are afraid OF the tariff
question and the free coinage Of
silver. We had free coinage of
silver in this country up to twenty
years ago and then we demonetized
lit. Its effect was slow, but we are
feeling it now. Wall street controls
the finances. To-day but three per-
sons in hundred in New York own
their own homes, and but seven out
Of "A hundred in Chicago.

Mr.. Secretary Hoke Smith, In ms
Gainesville, Ca, speech said: The
history of the country showed that
no legislation had ever been able to
keep the two coins Of the same
value" This is an assertion that
has suddenly become quite the
fashion with the single gold stand
ard men, as if it were a matter OF
great consequence. As a matter OF
fact the statement is true. ltcould
not be otherwise. There would gen
orally be a slight difference between
gold and silver coin according to
the demand for each. There gener-
ally has been, and the silver coin has
most of the time been alittle higher
in value than gold, for the obvious
reason that it was always the money
o. small transactions in constant de-
mand in the daily business OF all
the people. But it never could and
it never did stay much above gold
for any considerable time, because
under bimetallism, when tn, pre-
mium got too high, gold, an equal
full tender, was substituted for it
until the premium disappeared.
What Mr.. Hoke Smith cites as
an argument against bimetallism by
an act of the American Congress, is
the very strongest argument in its
favor, for with monometallism, either
gold or silver, there is nothing TO
stay the tendency Of the favored
metal to appreciate in purchasing
power. When we had bimetallism,
if gold got proud and aristocratic
and hid away, there was silver to
perform all the functions of money,
and when the business demands
upon silver became so great as to
appreciate its purchasing power,
gold came out of its hiding place,
not sulkily either, but eager to get
its share of the good things cheap
ened because it had left silver for q
time to do all the work of making
exchanges of the fruits OF industry

without Limitation would be in
stanly followed by flood Of golC

ing places, into the home markets t.
