PURCHASE OF ALASKA.
Please state how it came about that
the United States purchased Alaska
from Russia. What year. and what was
the price paid? Also. did the Canadian
Government raise any protest at the
time? W. Y.
The purchase OF Alaska was Mr.. Sew
ards idea. lie believed in the value Of
the country. In 1853 the concession TO
trade I'm the country enjoyed by Rus
SIAN company, expired. Seward, who
was Secretary OF State. thought II would
be a polite return 10 Russia for the
Iatter's course during our civil war If
we bought the country. and that II would
be no loss TO us. We paid $4,000 for
Alaska. The treaty of purchase was
signed on March 81 and ratified June 20.
1851. and on November 9th OF the same
year the United States formally took
possession o. its new territory, General
Rousseau, L. s. A., and a small force
occupying New Archangel (Stka). Great
Britain made no protest.

for 70 ship the actual money rather
than 10 buy the draft. There is n gold
shipping-point: that is. when drafts Tex

than q certain point. gold Is shipped.
and a gold importing-point; when gold
IS imported. rather than drafts taken
In general. when gold is shipped Il
means that exchange has reached the
gold-exporting point. but II may happen
that certain firms have contracted TO
send actual gold. instead OF drafts, as
a commodity.

the body Of Dentatus is finely expressed,
and his reception OF the news from Rome
a splendid piece of acting In the great
forum scene he appears commanding and
masterful. and mis- conclusion Of the act
fairly cOmpeis the applause it receives.
His portrayal Of the mad Nirglnius has
been mentioned as strlKingly effective
the actor never committing the sin OF
eXaggeration. Throughout the play Mr..

, CAN'T BE BEAT.

Dear Friend and Brother:-I am an old
Greenbacker who published the first
Greenback paper = the Indianapolis
"Sun." 1 am just as firm for that kind
of money as l ever was. I lost twenty
five thousand dollars in publishing the
indianapolis Sun" trying to educate the
people in those principles that would
eliminate suffering and drive poverty out
of this splendid country of ours.
1t makes me as wrathy to hear the nom
sensed slush of the Republican and Dem
ocratic leaders about asking permission
of those priest ridden, king-croft gov
erned countries whether we shall issue
any kind of money that we please, and
give the fat power of money. The
greenback is made of the best material
that ever was used as money. 1t can't
be beat Light, hard to counterfeit and
the best of all, no intrinsic value in it.
The gold and silver, and particularly the
gold, are humbugs and towards. When
any trouble threatens it is hidden and
gone; thousands of dollars worth are lost
and buried in the earth-no good to any
one.
regard The Representative as one Of
our best papers; and Will try ana DO
all can to keep it in the field to shed
light on poor humanity.

close United Express order for $3.50.

SENATOR HARRIS IDEA.

Washington Nov Ex-senator Harris,
the chairman of the executive committee
of six appointed at the Washington con-
ference of last August to organize for the
campaign of 1896 the free silver Demo-
Gratis of the country, has sent letter to
his colleagues, the chief feature of which
is the following:
''In the light of recent election results
there is. in my opinion, no hope Of Dem
ocratic success in 1896 unless we can sue
coed in so organizing the bimetallic Dem
ocrats as to secure in the national con-
vention a plain, distinct and unmistak-
unlimited coinage of both gold and silver,
without regard to the financial policies of
any country, and therefore it appears to
me that we should redouble our efforts to
secure such organization
