THE "SCARITY."

Written for the Nonconformist:
The bankers, again, are sending gold out
BY the millon-.across the Atlantic,
To fix up another big scare" for them
selves.
And soon they will be nearly frantic!
We wish Mr.. Horr would come out and
For, we HoOsiers, can't comprehend it
Why sending out gold, scares bankers SO
bad.
When we know that it's the bankers
that send it!
There may be another strange function of
Like that awful mysterious" parity!
I suggest that the thing that produces the
scare"
Shall be known as the "Single Gold
Scarity!
Then, having the terms of the science de-
fined
The plain. common man may be able
To see stable standard that stands
in their mind.
Hardly stand in the treasury-"stable!'
Now, this is the Ariadnean thread
That leads us straight out of our
trouble
1t shows why metallic standards won't
stand
Half so well single as "double;"
To Illustrate this, and prove I am right
Take two. in pair-there's parity
In lone graveyard at the dead mid
night
We all know-that lessons the scarity
This graveyard metaphor seems apropos
Opens old party friends, situation;
Whisth they high or whistle they low,
They show a profound trepidation,
For the outcome Of bond-issue gold stan
dard game,
AS to which they are all on a "parity!'
And man up a. tree can easily see
Both parties have gone long on
''scarity.'

THE REAPER'S DANCE.

The work is done, the field at rest,
In decent sheaves the barley stands;
The lads and lasses call the tune
That starts their feet and joins their
hands.
And here's the battered violin
That came from Ireland all the way
To fill the green with happy sound
And make a tripping end of day.
JOY, her cheeks as a rose, is nigh.
Grass for the floor and ceiling of sky!
Stars for his state,
Beauty for mate,
Love, with Love a his breast, goes by!
The fiddler stops. And now a strain,
AS if regretting vanished June,
Comes sweetly from the gliding bow
With heartbreak, heartbreak in the
tune,
At last the mood Of merriment
Is yielding gladly to romance.
And shaded by the quickest hedge
Young Love is speaking in the dance!
Hope, her cheeks as a rose. is Nigh
Grass for the floor and ceiling of sky!
Stars for his state,
Beauty for mate,
Love- with Love i'm his arms, gone by!

HEROIC. UTTERANCES OF FAMOUS
PEOPLE,

There is great need that earnest efforts
should be made to arouse in the hearts of
the living generations of American citi-
zens that manly spirit of independence
and of resistance to oppression for which
their forefathers were famous in the
days of rs" Let the brave examples
and utterances of the heroes of other
times be emulated by American citizens
in the critical struggle that now con-
fronts them.

their interests too unimpOrtant to be COLI
sidcred. Why, then, this cry about re-
pudiation? Is it a question with gold
monometallists simply OF whose OK is
being gored?
Mr. Nichols: "And if prices fall be-
cause gold rises, it is only as if cloth
fell because the yardstick grew shorter.
The same length of cloth would still COM
mand the same number Of shoes. There
could rc no change in the relative amount
of each commodity secured for similar
amounts of each other commodity"
A repetition of unfounded assumption.
Mr.. Nichols: Farmer and labor both
get more today for their years work
than they ever got before, more clothing
food. comfort, education, travel and
pleasure"
This, Mr. Nichols, farmer and laborer
are in position to answer for themselves.
They cannot be blinded by any compare
sons Of wholesale prices with wages.
The farmer and manufacturer sell at
wholesale prices, and the laborer's wage
is fixed by the price the farmer and man
ufacturer or other employer receives for
his product. At RETAIL farmer and la
borer must spend what they receive at
wholesale prices, one directly, the other
indirectly. Compare wages, not the
nominal wages, but deducting wasted
time, compare the real wages with re-
tail prices, and the distressing situation
of the wage Garner will not belle your
figures
Mr.. Nichols whether nominal prices
rise or fall, so long as production in
creases, people will have more goods and
be better off, whether one standard of
value or another is used-gold, or silver,
or paper
So long as production increases, people
will have more goods and be better off,
but under falling prices production will
not increase as rapidly as it otherwise
would. When profits are cut into, pro-
duction is curtailed. Just as surely
and more extensively, though subtly, is
production checked by falling prices, the
result of the appreciation of gold, as it
is momentarily from falling prices, the
result of panic consequent upon the col
lapse Of credit.
Mr.. Nichols: THE only condition being
that all should use the same standard
of value, and that one the least subject
to rapid fuctuation.'
Which is the bimetallic standard, based
on both gold and silver.
Mr.. NichOl: THAT standard. by com
mon consent, at present is goId'
Inc american people, Mr. NICHOLS,
never consented to the casting down OF
silver, unless the failure to secure the re-
esta blishment of bimetallism in spite of
the election of representatives pledged to
the restoration of silver be taken as such
consent. The question was not submit
ted TO the vote of the American people
Silver was demonetiZed without their
knowledge. The elections of 1896 will
show whether or not the gold standard
is acceptable to the American people.

what to Teach Daughters.

Teach her that not only must
she love her father and mother, but
honor them in word and deed.
That work Is worthy always
when it is well done.
That the value Of money is just
the good it will do in life, but that
she ought to know and appreciate
this value.
That the man who wishes to
marry her is the one who tells her
so and is willing to work for her,
and not the one who whispers silly
love speeches and forgets that men
cease to be men when they have
no object in life.
That her best confident is al
ways her mother, and that no one
sympathizes with her in her pleas
ures and joys as you do.
That unless she shows courtesy
to others she need never to expect
it from them, and that the best an
swer to rudcness is being blind to
it.
That when God made her body
He intended that it should be
clothed properly and modestly,
and that when she neglects herself
she is insulting Him who made
her.
Teach her to think we'll before
she says no or yes, but mean il
when she does.
Teach her to avoid men who
speak lightly of any of the great
duties of life, or who show in their
appearance that their habits are
bad.
Teach her that her own room is
her nest, and that to make it sweet
and attractive is duty as well as
apleasure.
Teach her that if she can sing, or
read, or draw, or give pleasure IN
any way by her accomplishments
she is selfish and unkind if she
does not do this gladly.
Teach her to be a woman, self re-
specting, honest, loving and kind,
and you will have a daughter who
will be pleasure to you always,
and whose days will be long and
joyous in the land which the Lord
hath given her.-Ladiez Home Jour

The President has apparently re-

silver men may control the Demo
cratic National Convention of 1896
and dictate the party's wishes on
the currency question. Under the
apportionment Of delegates to the
States and Territories, the repre-
sentation in the next Democratic
convention will number Ola, al
lowing Utah six delegates. Two
thirds, or 600, are necessary to a
choice.
Outside of Illinois and Indiana,
which can hardly be considered
debatable territory, the silver fac
tion will probably control 532 del
egates or within II of two-thirds

delegates, won over to the silver
wing, the silver men would con

THE FARM.

IF the seed is carefully selected
it will not run out. Fit is not, it
will.
The corn crop is an important
one, not only for its grain but for
its fodder.
Take the boy into some sort OF
partnership with you, and allow
him every cent or share that the
contract calls for.
The farmer who carefully saved
his seed corn at husking last Fall
took the first important step to
ward getting good crop in 1895
The boy that is made to work
like a slave for his board and lodg
ing, will likely be one ofthose fun
ny boys who will want to leave tht
farm.
Because the father was compel
ed to work himself almost to deatl
when he was young is no sort o
reason why his child should b.
made to work himself nearly t.

1t was decided to hereafter hold
semi-annual examination for the
granting of life diplomas, in accord
ance with the act of the last legis-
lature, the first examination to be
at the time Of the regular quarter
ly county examination in June.
The questions will be prepared by
the territorial board and will be
transmitted by the superintendent
of public instruction to the county
boards in time for examination.
Attorney General Satterwhite, in
response to a request of Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction
Netherton, has written an opinion
giving his Interpretation of the
school act of the late legislature.
His opinion is that the reading OF
the act must be sustained, despite
its reference to a change of date
fthe election ofschool trustees, and
therefore to the newly elected trus-
tees in each district must be given
the task of selecting the teachers.
This is delicate question with
teachers on the anxious seat, and
the attorney generals interpreta-
ton will keep them further in
suspense till the meetings of the

THE flask OF HYPOCRISY.

No true friend of silver coinage
on equal terms with gold will fa-
vor waiting for an international
conference before acting. If the
United States is to consult Eng
land before passing free coinage
law, the glories of the Revolution
of 1776, the death of the old heroes
of 1912, the imperishable record Of
our proud Republic of century is
all for naught.
Those in love with England and
English forms may await England's
consent, but the true patriotic
American in love with our institu-
tions, and proud Of being an Amer
lean will spurn the suggestion that
we shall consult q foreign power
which controls the money markets
of the world before legislating for
our own people. Why not annex
the United States as a province or
dependency of England if Eng
lands policy and wishes are to con
troll our government. The man
who breaches bi-metallism and i'm
mediately says await the action
and will of other nations across

of sin and still seeking to cover it

as the. Savior 1900 years ago
scourged the money lenders from
