FREE SILVER AND DEMOCRATIC
ROT.

To those who have watched the prog
rers OF the silver discussion il is be-
coming plain that sentiment IN favor OF
free coinage IL rapidly diminishing and
promises TO vanish entirely asa question
Of import long before the great national
hattie Of 1896 shall have been COM
,nenced. In this state It's agitation has
been very largely confined 10 a class Of
Democrats who have souelitsto force it
an an issue in the hope 81 calling attcn-
tion from tho bungling methods OF the
present administration. Ia our estimate
OF the sentiment Ia this state we are
supported by the result Of the April cleo
ton. IL will be rccollected that the free
silver element Of the Democratic party
manipulated the machine ut the con-
vention held in Saginaw during the
closing days OF February. They adopted
one-plank platform demanding the
free and unlimited coinage oil silver on a
basis OF 16 to J.. nominated Judge Nc
Grnfh, who Ia advance OF theconvention

high In Grand Army circles, had made

and withal represented section OF the
state entitled BY al precedent TO a seat
on the supreme bench. Ia spite Of this
the people rejected the free silver plank
by RELATIVES majority never before
reached for any man or principle in The
state. This result, in view OF the fact
that Judge McGrnth received many
Republican votes and the further Tact
that the Republican candidate stood
upon platform Tor making one dollar

READING The object Of the work in
reading In this department Is TO prepare
the pupils for the First grade. IL has
been our nim to make good sight readers
Of the pupils--to give them the ability to
look through the written or printed ex-
preston and at once gnin the thought
and give good oral expression to the
same. The A class has lenrned about
one hundred and fifty words and has
read through Applcton'e chart. The y
class has learned one hundred words and
read hall through the chart. Tho q
class has just commenced It's work in
reading.
WIRING While the pupil il learning
to read he should be taught to write. His
nrst efforts in this direction win be 60

the board. The states nrc ruled 20 serve

IL il stated in Wisconsin paper that
when the recent severe wind struck Med
ford n hotel in that town which was un-
finished withstood the storm. II was
rncked somewhat. but was Strengthened
up at small expense. The hotel is
built Of hemloclS, and the owner Of the
house expressed an opinion That had it
been constructed OF pine it would have
gone 70 pieces.
Possibly the conclusion OF the hotel
man is not correct. There Is no way 81
knowing what the exact result would
have been had the irnme OF the building

elastic, and one lumbcrman makes the
point that when once IL is detected
whenever the strain IL removed IL will
spring back, while pine will not do so.

known as white pine mills will in time

the promise OF their platform, there
would be no partial restoration Of the
wages OF labor until the return OF the
Republicans to power. On the other
hand. il The Republicans had remained
in power, the loss OF confidence which
precipitatcd the panic would not have
occurred.
The workingmcn throughout tho
country have had more than enough Of
the Democratic party. As for the Wilson
bill, they notice that it is Il revenue
measure which SO sadly fails to serve the
purpose Tor which IL was framed that
the administration is obliged to borrow
money at intervals to meet the expenses
OF carrying on the government. The
workingncn will have 10 contribute not
only toward thcrepayment Of the princi-
pal OF this borrowed money, but also
toward the payment Of the heavy inter

while the Wilson bill has in countless
instances taken away protection from
American worlingmcn. it Inns been very
generous TO the sugar trust.
Democratic organs commit prcsump-
tuous folly when they invite the atten-
ton OF workingmen to the Wilson bill.

recently from mysterious causes. A
veterinary surgeon made the necessary
autopsy, and discovered in the animals
stomach black snake over tour feet
