A Generous Offer.

! The NUGGET, land we presume all
other papers published in the United
States, has received from the Sound
Currency Committee, 81 William street,
New York, copies Of "Sound Currency"
a semi-monthly publication, published
and circulated in the interest of the
godbugs. One number contains an an
swer to "Coin's Financial SCHOOL, by
Horace White, who gives his paper the
title of "Coin's Financial Fool" In q
'Note to Editors,n accompanying the
pamphlet, it is pronounced "a classic,
which bids fair to remain long after
Coins Financial School has been for
gotten except so for as it is recalled for
the popularity of its antidote." This is
too rich for our blood. However, here
is something still richer. The publish
ers of this class of literature, which
they style classic, make the following
generous offer to newspapers
"Should you desire to offer half
years. subscription to Sound Currency
or the choice of any five numbers, as
premium with a subscription to your
paper, we will, until further notice,
supply the necessary pamphlets free OF
charge.
1--WE have arranged with the Amer
lean Press Association to supply our
Sound Currency plate matter to all
newspapers that will use it. The only
charge will be for expressage
about 20 cents per page.
We publish the above merely to show
that the goldbugs are spending money
to support we'll organized literary bu-
resu to disseminate "sound money"doc-
trine. There are thousands of rural ed
itors who publish boiler plate sheets who
will accept this offer. The bankers and
money kings are alive to the fact that
the free coinage advocates have the
better OF them in every argument. and
that the only way they can maintain
control of legislation as they have done
during the past twenty-three years is
to still further delude the people. They
have the money to buy the services of
able writers and have behind them the
money powers of the world. 1t be-
hooves the friends of the working man
and producers to be on the alert, or the
prodigious power of wealth will soon
succeed in fastening upon them bonds
from which they can never hope to free
The crisis to determine
whether we still remain free people,

Hard to Please.

In appointing delegates to the Salt
Lake Silver Conference, Governor Nc
Connell did his best to make it nom
partizan by naming representatives from
all the parties. From the populist party
he chose Captain Gum, editor of the
Boise Sentinel, and Mr.. A. ]. Crook,
two of the most prominent men in the
populist party. These men, for them
selves and party, declined with thanks.
Now some of the pop papers are howl
ing because their party has no repre-
sentation on the State committee. They
remind one of spoiled child, who re.
fuses what is offered him, and then
cries because he can't get it.

The London Mining World, of May
25, contains an account of a general
meeting of the stock holders of the re-
constructed Poorman Mining Company,
giving the report of the Secretary of the
company and general outline of the
Improvements proposed and now under
way. The reconstruction of the Leon
ard mill and the construction of wire
tramway has been provided for, at an
estimated cost OF $1,000 From read
ing the report and addresses by Mr..
Brotherton and others, it is apparent
that the company contemplates the
construction of larger mill as soon as
the location and water supply has been
decided upon. The very conservative
report made by Mr.. Grothe, the man
ager, puts the profits by the use of the
Leonard mill only, at 5000, 900 per year.
The company as now organized has lam
pie capital on hand to carry out the i'm
provements contemplated, and it is ex-
pected that the mill will be crushing
ore by September The NUGGET expert
has long had unbounded faith in this
famous property being made paying
one and with all other persons here re-
ioices to learn that it will now be given
a thorough test upon its real merits.

The sound of the carpenters saw and
hammer is making very welcome music
in Silver City, indicating that the peo-
pie in that camp have confidence in
the future of the wonderful mines

in and around Silver City now than at
any time since the failures of the stock
specializing companies burst up twenty
years ago. 1t has taken long time to
restore confidence ia the value of prop

Notwithstanding Cleyeland's letter
and Senator Palmers efforts to stem
the tide of free coinage sentiment in
Illinois, the state democratic convention
whic h met last Wednesday at Spring
field, turned out to be one of the most
enthusiastic silver meetings ever held
in the country. Twenty-Five hundred
people shouted, cheered and applauded
the resolutions in favor Of free coinage
and they were carried through with
rush. One resolution asked the nation
al democracy to call silver convention.
If it fails to do this the Illinois demo-
Gratis will do it. Cleveland and his CO.
terie were ehectually turned down.
Cleveland's visit to Illinois made him
sick. The democrats of Illinois have
not given him a very soothing pre-
scription to relieve his distress.

The Gun club held a meeting last
night and considered several matters
of Importance.
1t was voted to purchase an cleo

shooters to stand on, and to repaint
the building, and to fix everything up
in apple pie order.
The day for holding the regular

A NEW CHURCH.
CHRISTIAN DENOMINATION TC
HAVE A NEW BUILDING.
The Congregation Holds a Meeting
and Arranges to Erect a Fine New
Structure on the Site of the Pres
ent Church.

The congregation and officers of the
Christian church held meeting last
night and considered the subject OF
erecting a new church building the
present year. The congregation has
| for several months considered the adj
visibility of enlarging the present
building, but it is now moved by g
| greater ambition, and the meeting
with practical unanimity decided in
favor of an entirely new building
Plans were presented, prepared by
Architect Thayer and Hugh McMur
| tries son, and were acceptable. Ii
the improvement goes through, the
present building will be torn
down and the new church will touch
the sidewalk on the Second and Grove
street sides, with entrances on each
side. The entire matter was placed
in the hands of a committee cOmpos.
ed mostly of the trustees, and con-
sisting of G. H. Austin, Captain L
N. Holmes, Geo. Blake, A. S. Rouse
and Geo. KOpp.
The plans call for handsome brick
or brick vaneered structure, 60 by 60
feet, and having spire on the corner,
Is to so feet high. There will be a
large gable on the Grove street side.
The main floor will be inclined, and
will have seats for 500 people, facing
the south side, where there will be a
large baptistry in octagonal shape.
In the basement will be large
Sunday-school and dining room, 26 by
80 feet, and nine feet high; kitchen
l53 feet square: a serving room II by
154 feet; furnace room IA by % feet;
two toilet rooms, etc, The building
will be heated by hot air furnace.
The main audience room will be
fourteen feet high on the corners and
will have wood finish on the ceiling.
The building will cost somewhere
near $5,0 900 when completed, and will
be very creditable to the congrega-
tion as well as to the city. Thus far,
something over 1000 has been raised,
and the building of the new church
depends largely upon how much more
can be raised. The committee will
60 outside of the church in asking for
subscriptions. The Christian church
is not as wealthy as some other
churches in the city, and should be en-
couraged in it's undertaking, which
shows commendable spirit of enter
prise.
The present church has been occu-
pied for nearly quarter of century.
The lot is &c feet wide and goes back
to the alley. 1t is to be hoped that
the present plans will be carried out.

MUST CRATE.
The School Board Refuses to Grant
the Graduates Petition.

The school board held it's regular
meeting last night and considered
several matters of Importance. The
petition from the graduating class of
the High school, asking that the usual
graduating exercises be changed this
year and that speaker of note be Sc
cured instead, which was laid over
from the last meeting, was taken up,
and the board refused to grant it.
The ''B" class was given permission
to use the school building to give a
reception to the members of the
graduating class.
The monthly report of Supt. Ken
aston was read and shows very large

indicates large growth in the popu-
lation of the city.

rIinneopa House, Will 1Ove Into
the Union Block April ISth-Has
Five Years Lease.

has for several years conducted the
Minneopa house, secured lease OF
the Union block, on South Front
street, for a term of five years, COM

entire building, and will move the
hotel there. The location is good
one for such a hotel, and we under
stand that a barn lis to be built on
the rear of the lot for the accommo-
dation of the patrons of the house.
Miss Ellefson has had a long expert
ence in the hotel business, and has
conducted the Minneopa house in a
very satisfactory manner.
AS has been previously stated,
the Minneopa house property
has been purchased by syndi-
cate of capitalists for the purpose OF
erecting a fine, modern hotel upon the
ground. The outside parties interested
are expected to visit the city within a
few days, and something definite will
then be known. Negotiations are
going along quietly, and unless there
is some hitch, the old hotel and barn

SKETCHES OF LINCOLN.
An Interesting Study of the Life OF
the Great Emancipation.

Always on the lookout for the best
interests of its readers, the FREE
PRESS is pleased to announce that
it has secured the exclusive use in this
county of series of articles covering
the more striking portions of the Life
of Abraham Lincoln, written by his
law partner, VIM. III. HerndOn. The
memory of no American lies closer to
the hearts of the people of this repub-
bile, than that of the martyred presi-
dent, and anything that more hlearly
reveals his character is welcomed by
all.
And no man ever had a chance to
know Lincoln better than did Mr..
Herndon through his close association
of 20 years as his law partner. Their
relatives were of the most intimate
nature, and Herndon's writings from
study of the true character of the
great emancipation, such as can be
found in those OF no other writer.
The sketches which the FREE
PRESS has secured for publication
cover the period of his life from his
boyhood days, until his death at the
hand of his as assassin, and bring out
clearly the qualities which made the
man. The story of his start in life !;
the obstacles and difficulties which he
met and surmounted: his career as a
lawyer; the part he took in the great
political debates and his rise into
national prominency are faithfully re-
counted and shed new luster upon his
great name.
These sketches are two columns in
length each, and will appear in the
daily on Tuesdays and Fridays of each
week, and also in the weekly and will
run through several weeks. The first
sketch will be published on Friday,
April 5th and will treat of his birth
and the little record that is known of
his family. The series as they pro-
gress will prove exceedingly interest
ing.

LOST HIS JOB.
Dennis Hayes Prefers Politics to His
Railroad Work.

Dennis Hayes failed to be elected
city recorder, and now he cannot go
back to work as section foreman for
the Minneapolis & St. Louis railroad.
1t is understood that some weeks ago
complaint of his activity in politics
was lodged with the railroad authori-
ties. AS result, Mr.. Hayes received
an ultimatum from the company,
giving him his choice, to continue
quietly at his duties, or to tender his
resignation as an employe of the road.
Mr.. Hayes chose to exercise his privi-
lege as an American citizen to run
for office, and on last Friday he re
ceived notice that the section would
hereafter have new foreman. Mr..
Hayes was sanguine of election and
said nothing but sawed wood. Now
that the votes have been counted, and
Mr.. Hayes name does not appear
among the successful, he will endea-
vor to secure reinstatement in his
former position.
Mr.. Hayes has been section foreman
for the M. & ST. L. road for eight or
ten years, and has been faithful and
Woodworking employe. He has
numerous friends in the city, who
would be glad to see him reappointed
to his place, and as he has now had a
taste of the bitterness of politics, he
would devote all his time to the in
tereSts of his road.

A SUCCESSFUL OPERATION.

Or. Webster performed a difficult
operation upon Milton Melville, of
Belgrade, yesterday. Mr.. Melville
suffered recently from pleurisy, and a
gathering in the chest cavity follow
ed. Yesterday five quarts of matter
was removed from the cavity. DR..
Webster states that Mr.. Melville will
probably now recover. Mr.. Melville
is known to many of our citizens, and
all will hope for his early recovery.
