farmers and labOrers suffer because
foreign countries have ceased To de-
mand our products. and therefore cur
prices have been driven down and

the lie and expose their sophistry. Take
Brazil. for instance. Official statistics
show an amazing increase in the de-
mand and receipt of American prod

The executive committee of the Bi-
metallic League has issued an address
to the people of the United States by
which it is intended 10 launch Il new
organization on the sea of American
politics. The address reviews at length
and with degree of ability the facts
concerning proposed old party action
on this important question. and the
opinion is expressed that large ma jor-
ity of the people favor the coinage of
silver at the rate of 16 to l under the
same conditions rs prior To 1873. which
is doubtless Il true representation.
The argument is made that no RENE
dy is To be expected from either the
Democrats or Republicans. and that
the voters will not affiliate with the
Peoples party for the reason that the
platform contains declarations and the
party advocates theories To which they
cannot give assent.
The address is timely and we are
pleased that General Warner has had
his say. 1t is timely for the reason
that there is full year before us for
educational purposes prior to the active
work of presidential campaign. For
several months an influence has been
eXerted to Sidetrack POpulist leaders
onto one single point of the money CUES

A Mothers Terrible Deed.

Mrs. John G. Core, of Marion Center,
Indiana county, committed horrible
crime on Monday morning, which con-
sisted in the deliberate drowning of a
two-year-old child. For some time
past Mrs. Core has exhibited signs of
insanity, being very reticent and melan-
choly, but her friends thought she
would be all right in the course of time
and very little attention was given her.
Deliberately picking up her two-year-
old child she went out to the well, and
in spite of the protests of an elder child,
threw 1t into the water. The husband
was informed Of what had occurred and
the body of the little one was recovered.
A warrant was then issued for the ar
rest of the mother. After her arrest
she made no effort to conceal her guilt,
confessing to the crime, ,-Punxsutaw-
