A STRING OF FISH STORIES.

The latest fish story comes from the
Rhone, near Geneva, and illustrates the

rendered unfit for human food. DIR.

the wrinkles on his horns was q years
old.

FETCHING oRAToRY.

"Grover Cleveland is not the Demo
cratic party, the Democratic party Ii
greater than any man."-Nebraska
Bryan.
This declaration, that no man disputes
shows that Mr. Bryan considers Grover
Cleveland great by his qualified com
parison, to-wit: "Than any man. in
dicating that he thought if ANY man
approached the greatness of the Demo
cratic party it was Grover Cleveland
But what a ridiculous cbap-trap piece OF
oratorv that was for Mr.. Bryan to help
Altgeld carry the Illinois Democratic
convention against the Democratic plat
form and Grover Cleveland on the silver
question.
1T is a fair specimen of the style of ora
tory of such fellows ever since Carlisle
opened his mouth on the subject. Even
the Kentucky orator, Senator Blackburn,
is using a similar style of OratOry. He
says: "My cOuntrymen, us gold the
poor mans money? No, my country
men, it is with shining silver that he buys
his tallow dip to dspel the gloom of his
long night" That is "teching" and
fetching" 1t is not true, however,
for the poor man cam buy his 'tallow dip
under "a sound currency with a nickle,
having in it neither gold nor silver. My
countrymen, under the present monetary
system the poor man buys his tallOw dip
to dispel the gloom of his long night with,
a nickle, and he only lights that to shuck
out Of his clothes and get into bed, my,
to sleep through the long
night. Oh, humbug, humbug, how num-,
erous are thy wOrshipers! The senior
senator from Kentucky has well earned

1t seems that Corbett's victory over
Sullivan has completely turned his head
and that he has deserted his wife who
fought through poverty with him and
is following the ignus fatuus of fascin-
ating demi monde. 1t is a pitiful story
as his wife loves him very devotedly.
Well, some men can't stand success.
We therefore hope that Fitzsimmons will
lick him within an inch of his life at the
Dallas mill. 1t is about the only good
we have ever hoped in a prize fight. If
his competitor in that contest cuts his
feathers he may return to the little wo-
man who has a right to all his love and
maintenance. Shame ON the champion.
We will bet on Fitzsimmons. You
know when Napoleon deserted Josephine
for the heir of the Caesars his glory de
parted and the Nemesis followed him all
the after days of his life. 1t was the just
retaliation of fate and the same fate will
pursue the fistic champion that pursued
his compeer of the larger battlefield.

JOSEPH SAVERS.
He Will Leave Washington for HI:
Texas Home Today.

Washington, June 10.-(Special.) Rep
resentative Savers, who has returned from
his duties as a member of the visitors
board at Annapolis leaves for home to-
morrow. He saw Secretary Carlisle to-
day and will have an interview with the
president tomorrow. Both visits are in
the interests Iof constituents and de-
partmental business. He is widely quot
ed in the Easter press in various inter
views as a representative leader among
the Southwesterns. The trend of his
statements point to much better party
conditions than had been apprehended
here. Less danger of an irretrievable
split on the money question and with
good crops and good prices, a fair out
look for the continuation of the solid
Democratic strength in the Southwestern
section is prophesied.

There is not much prospect of free
coinage bill in the next house. The Re
publican majority in that congress are for
ahe most part sound money men, but even
d it were otherwise it would be folly to
&aste the time in passing free silver
bill, unless it could get two-thirds vote
and that will be impossible, for Mr.. Cleve-
land would most undoubtedly veto any free
coinage bill unless it was one providing
for the coinage of silver at its intrinsic
value.

A SERIOUS FIGHT
Between Union and Non-Union Workmel
in Chicago.

Chicago, June 10.-BlOod has stained the
being erected by Z. 7. Armour on Michi-
gan avenue. A handful of nOn-union
painters who have been at work on the in
terror of the building were attacked this
afternoon by party of union men and
Il desperate conflict ragged for fully i've
minutes. Finally when peace was re
stored four nOn-uniOn men were led to a
neighboring drug store to have their
broken heads patched. One of them,
Adam Brier, who was so weak from loss
of blood that he could hardly walk.
The injured:
Adam Brier, cut on top of the head and
right eye half gOuged out.
William Bliss, struck on left temple
with an iron tool, making a severe cash.
Two other men We're thrown down a
flight of stairs and both received severe
cuts and bruises. The police were not
called to the scene and no arrests We're
made. The trouble arose because ten
painters. not recognized by the building
trades council were working on the build
ing.
Saturday, Alex Mcdonald, president of
the Painters District council went to the
contractor and told him that if the non
union painters We're not put off today,
strike would be declared on the work of all
non.union painters.
Today, when the strike came, fighting
quickly ensued. The union men Outnum
bered their opponents and had all the best
of the encounter. All sorts of tools were
used in the combat.
The union men were remarkably fortu.
nate in escaping injury. They had laid
perfect plans for the attack. 1t was only
when Foreman Ballier came running VI
and waved white flag that the attack OF
the union men ceased. He signed the
agreement presented by the trades council
and Immediately afterward discharged the
| Objectionable men. 10 i'll number. They
went away, those who could walk, but de-
clared they would prosecute both the con.

There are good many fellows with
an eccentrcity of genius. The genius
consists in getting drunk and the eccen-
tricity in beating their wives. Young
Emmett, the actor, has just demonstrated
that kind of eccentricity of genius. He
got drunk, shot at his wife and the ball
glanced off of her temple, and then he
caught her and beat her over the face
and head with his heavy pistol. TIL,
fond and foolish wife shielded him by
denying the testimony of half a dozer
reputable citizens.
Such eccentricty deserves its reward.

a local physician with national reputa
ton criticises the press in an interview
with Statesman representative yesterday
on account of the publication of "the dis
gushing stories of Oscar Wilde and his
following" Such filth ought to be kept
out of the press and far away from the
purity of homes, but the physician is in
error in blaming the press. The fault lies
with the public. The public demands all
such information and the press, it seems,
can not correct that vitiated taste. Some
newspapers will minister to this deprav-
ed taste and others must do so or with
draw from competition for public pat
ronage.
Newspaper editors desire most earnest
ly as a general thing, to elevate the tone
and taste of their readers but their read
ers make obedience to their demands
in this respect condition to the life and
prosperity of newspapers and such de-
mand forces its compliance. If this
eminent physician desires to exclude
such obscenity from the homes of the
land he must 90 to the bottom of the
thing and correct it there and that is
the vitated taste of the reading public
for all such garbage.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1895-06-13

In 1913 there was no silver in circula-
ton in the country to pay debts with
and its legal tender quality was useless.
but even if silver was not legal tender
above 50 from 1873 to 1878 the act of
1878 restored silver to its quality as an
unlimited legal tender and its price in
the markets began and continued to fall
while it had the legal tender feature.
Under these circumstances all this fuss
about numbering silver in 1873 is all
bOSh.
