those who have taken out the license.
The secretary's report showed that
there were reported during the month
1879 deaths, 159 births and 1O1 marriages.
This Is the largest number Of births
and marriages ever reported and 1t Is
due not because there were more such
events than usual but because Of the
board having insisted on these matters
being reported In accordance with the
prescribed regulations which heretofore
were not strictly enforced. The death
roll was the biggest for November in
five years. In November, 1891, there
were ninety-fiv deaths; 1892. 126 deaths;

SENATOR STEWARDS paper The Silver
Knight, is urging the Populists to make
their fight on the silver issue alone so
that the free silver Republicans and
Democrats can join them, and predicts
that both the old parties will stand for

gress shall perform its duty to the peo-
pie by passing a free coinage lazy all
speculation as to what will happen next
year will be thrown away. The uncon-
ditional repeal of the Sherman law by
Democratic congress is what made the
election of Republican house possible
last year. The duty then, of that Re-
publican house is manifest. The senate
has always voted for silver, except in the
case of the repeal of the Sherman law

STRAsBURG. Oct. 1.-THE governor
general of Alsace- Lorraine Prince Ho-
henlohs has received the following tele-
gram from Emperor William regarding
the murder on Tuesday last of Heinrich
Schwartz, a wealthy mill owner of Muel-
hansen, who was stabbed to death by an
Alsatian spinner named Andrews, who
afterwards committed suicide by shoot
ing himself THOUGH the head with a re-
volveE. Il have just learned of the
atrocious murder OF Herr Schwartz the
manufacturer of Muslhausen, and l beg

dolencs to the unhappy widow in my
name and in that of the empress.
This makes one more victim of the

CONGRESSMAN DICK BLUE declared in
a speech at Kansas City, Kansas, Satur-
day night, that he was in favor of coming
the product of the silver mines of the
United States. If he had stopped there
he might have been credited with being
a sincere, though a misguided bimetal-
list, but he didn't stop there. He went
Oh to say that he wanted to see every
dollar the equal of any other dollar.
This latter statement shows either ig
norance or an intent to deceive. If
Congressman Blue knows anything about
the question, he knows that the matter of
coming or not coming additional silver
has nothing whatever to do with the
parity of values between different kinds
of dollars The question of an equality
of values between our different kinds of
dollars can be settled by simply comply
ing with the laws on the statute books.
Under the law every dollar in the United
States is worth 100 cents, and one kind
of dollar will buy just as much as an
other kind of dollar The coinage of
all the silver in the world into American
dollars could not alter this fact. If Con
gresham Blue means that he wants the
value of the bullion in one kind of dollar
to be equal to the value of the bullion in
another kind of dollar then he should
favor the unlimited coinage of both
kinds of metallic dollars. for that is the
| only way that it can be brought about.
! He says he will never vote to debase z
coin. This is encouraging in view of the
fact that there has been a constant efforl
on the part of the present administration
TO debase the silver coin.

SECRETARY CARLISLE delivered an ad-
dress before the Massachusetts Reform
club Saturday night in which he took
occasion to make his customary attack
on the government treasury notes He
said: There can be no financial re-
pose in this ountry SO long as these
notes constitute part of our currency,
because the fact that they exist compels
the government to provide large gold
reserve, which in the very nature of
things, cannot be permanently main
tanned at any fixed amount, and whenever
it begins to diminish, distrust and appre-
hension arise in the public mind, values
are unsettled, business is disturbed and
more or less loss entailed upon the peo-
pie" Now as a matter of truth, 'the
fact that they exist" doesn't compel the
government to do anything of the kind.
There never was any provision in the
statutes for gold reserve of any amount
whatever, neither has there ever been
any necessity for a gold reserve. Every
government obligation is payable either
in gold or silver at the option of the gov
eminent If Mr.. Carlisle will comply
with the law as it stands, the government
notes will give him no trouble. Neither
the reenbacks nor the Sherman notes
ever caused any trouble to the treasury
officials until Mr.. Harrison's secretary of
the treasury esta blished the policy of re-
deeming the latter in gold. Mr.. Carlisle
knows all this.

A Story Told in England.

One Of the most valuable focks Of
Southdown sheep in the United States
is the property of Mr. Mansan Migg, the
beet-root sugar magnate, says the Lon
don Tit-Bits. A peculiar fact in con-
nection with the flock is that it is
looked after, not by sheep dogs, but by
six trained Spanish game cocks. They
are armed each morning with spurs,
and have so fierce a way of attacking
any sheep that tries to ruin away or
will not be driven that the animals arc
now thoroughly afraid of the birds and
obey their directions perfectly. Mr..
Migg's daughter brought the birds from
the Canary Islands.
