In his speech at the Ohio republican state
convention, Senator Sherman said: 1.-THE
policy now urged by the producers of silver
and by men who wish to pay their debts in
cheaper money than they promised to pay is
the free coinage of silver. This means the
single standard of silver, and the demoneti-
cation of gold. This is the only monome-
tallic system. 1t is the depreciation OF our
dollar to so cents. If applied to our ma
tional bonds it is repu liation of one-half
of the public debt. 1t is the reputation of
One-half of all debts. 1t confers no favOrs
on productions of any kind, whether of the
farm, the workshop or the mine, for il they
get nominally more dollars for their produc-
tions their additional dollars would have
only one-half the purchasing power of the
gold dollars. The great hardship of this
policy would fall upon the workingmen,
skilled and unskilled, whose daily wages
measured by the present standard is higher
than any. country in the world. Their
wages will purchase more of the necessaries
of life than the wages paid for similar labor
anywhere outside of the United States. 1t
is false pretences that the cheapening of
money will be beneficial to them".

Waiting for Shields.

The Owosso State League base ball team
contains some good material and with prop
er team work and coaching would become

The ball game on Monday resulted in an
easy victory for the Battle Creek team. The
home club started in with good prospects of
winning, scoring eight runs in the first three
innings while the visitors failed to get a
man across the home plate. In the fourth
inning the Battle Creek club scored times
and after that easily piled up six more
scores, making IA, while Owosso got but
one score after the third inning.
The games with Battle Creek Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday were well attended
and full of interest every day although the
home team won but one game. Monday
everybody hit the ball and the result was
score of ii toe. Kern pitched tor Owosso
and the verdict of the spectators was that
he was playing for his release.
Tuesdays was fine game, Owosso win
ming by one run, Haynes and Best forming
the home battery, the score being IL to 10.
The crowd was an enthusiastic one, and
the number would be doubled if the team
would win few more games.
Wednesday Gleason pitched for Owosso
and with little better support the game
could have been won. The score was II to
o.
The "Page Fence Giants" is the name of
