now, is to SETTLE the bills.
Our school accommodations have
been very uncomfortable and un-
healthy for a number OF years, and
although this has been acknowledged
generally, yet il was with considerable
effort and some opposition, that we are
able to present to you this imposing
building, building substantial in
finish, modern in design, and DOS.

you are entitled. Good educational
advantages are the bulwarks of a

arsenals and armed fortresses, and
without educational facilities, the
greatest nation would soon sink into
oblivion.

THE noRR.HARvEY DEFEATS.

More About the War of Words Over
Gold and Silver.
CHICAGO, July 23.-The Horr- Harvey
debate was continued to-day. Mr..
Harvey said this government had fixed
the price of gold and all the friends of
silver wanted was for 1t to fix the price
of silver In the belief that the snation
could better keep out OF the pawn
brokers, hands with two metals than
one. Returning to his argument on
bimetallism, he said that the option Of
the debtor to pay in the cheaper metal
should not be impaired. This would
always maintain parity.
Mr.. Horr declared that since 1874 the
production of silver has been steadily
on the increase, and that gold had since
1878 been also on the increase, but while
silver had increased in quantity three
times during that period, gold had only
doubled in quantity.
Mr.. Harvey went back to the discus
sion OF primary money as measure OF
values. In 1867 he declared all the
money in circulation was SIS IS per
capita, and 1872 Is was Sl9.19 per capita,
and In those times all money was pric
mary money the measure OF values being
paper itself. In 1891 we had q por capita
circulation Of S24 %
4 He then said: NOW you will all say
that the quantity Of money in circula-
ton Affects prices. You had more money
primary and credit combined in circula
ton In 1894 per capita than you had in
the two years named previous to 1873,
and yet prices were higher then than
now"
Mr.. Horr said Mr.. Harvey's definition
OF primary money was money of re-
demption. Greenbacks had to be re
deemed to make them good, and they
could not by any hook or crook be con-
strued into primary money.
Mr.. Harvey denied that Mr.. Horr WAS
justified in calling him 8 greenbacker,
and said that he believed in gold and
silver rs primary money to the fullest
extent under the bimetallic laws that
governed II prior to 1873. This closed
the debate for the day. and an ad
journment was taken until Thursday.
