How to Help the Farmer.

The opening Of our minis to silver,
and this alone, can free our farmers
and planters from the disastrous COM
petition with the producers Of silver
using countries that has been fostered
by the premium on gold. So, to our
farmers Mr.. Bryan's election holds out
a prospect Of relief, while the election
of Mr.. Mckinley, pledged to a policy
of inaction and the maintenance Of the
gold standard, would bring no relief.
And as the election of Mr.. Mckinley
and the imposition of higher tariff
duties could not bring prosperity to
our farmers, and could not bring them
better prices, the market for manufac-
tured goods would be, as now, sadly
restricted through the fmpoverishment
of those whose needs are crying, but
who cannot purchase. Consequently,
manufacturers would not profit from
higher tariff duties, even granting that
such duties could be made high enough
to protect our manufacturers against
foreign competition.-The American.

How Railroads Would Benefit.

There are doubtless many railroad
managers who cannot understand why
we should not return to the industrial
conditions which enabled them to meet
their fixed charges They are crushed
under a bonded debt that is terribly
excessive under present circumstances,
but which would not be at all excessive
if the country were prosperous again.
What the railroads want is just what
the rest of the community wants
namely, commercial activity. They
want people to travel and freight to
move.
1t is a fair proposition that railway
operatives are interested in the success
Of the railways. There can be no doubt
about it. When the Michigan Central
says to it's men that it's interests are
opposed to free coinage, it's words are
important, and ought to be carefully
needed. But it should not be forgotten
that the Michigan Central stands al
most alone among railroads. Rail
roads as a class cannot have any opin-
ion concerning free coinage different
from the opinion Of the business inter
ests at large, which is naturally favor
able.-Detroit Tribune.

to 1873 Portugal was the second high
est. Could anything more completely
expose the preposterous character of
the claim ?-The National Bimetallist.
The Oninion of a Merchant.

Times can be no worse than they are
at present. Our currency is not expan-
sive enough for the demands Of the peo-
pie. France has $40 per capita Of
money in circulation, and it's people are
prosperous and happy. We have 500
per capita. We need more money, and
free silver coinage will put an end to
business stagnation. Our factories are
closed and our artisans and mechanics
are out of work. More money will
make higher prices, better demand for
goods and a revival Of prosperity.
Goods and produce are too cheap be-
cause people have no money to buy
them. The depreciation in prices on
some lines of goods has been more than
so per cent in the past six months.
With free silver the price Of wheat and
corn would enhance in value. Dollar
wheat for the farmer makes him look
at his clothes When they are frayed
he buys new. He refurnishes his house,
if it is needed, and so helps to start the
furniture factories going again. It is
so in all lines. More money, the great
er demand for goods. A single gold
standard would bring prices still lower
and more failures and more disaster
for the people. We are partially upon
a bimetallic basis now and that is in
measure our salvation. Talking Of free
silver, our mines could not turn out
over $60,OOO000 per year-less than ST
to every inhabitant Would that flood
the country? 1t would restore prices,
confidence and resuscitate business.
That's about, l think, what free silver
would do for us. We want to take care
Of ourselves frst-European countries

AN UNREAL MEXICO.

The Enthusiastically minded gold stand
ard editors Of the United States have
evolved from their inner consciousness
an unreal Mexico for campaign pur-
poses only. This is miserable Mex
ico," where poverty and wretchedness
reign supreme, where the laborer has
been reduced to serfdom, and is close
fastened to his fate by chain Of silver
dollars, the money Of poverty" One
reads their ''Silver Catechisms" and
their Shorter Silver Catechisms" with
the same wonder and delight that are
inspired in the breast Of an ingenious
person by first peruSal Of Munchau-
sens adventures or by contemplating
page of Edward Atkinson's statistics,
which have wrought destruction to
many sound mentalities. Railway con-
tractors here will be glad to be told
that they can get all the men they want
at Is to % cents day Zone would ike
to hire them and lease them out on
railway construction at current rates..
We are also told Of the degradation and
utterly hopeless poverty of this land,
where we had imagined an unparal-
leled prosperity to be unmistakab bly,
observable, and of. innumerable woes
wrought by a "debased currency"
when on all hands we see new fac
tories, new industries and an expanded
tropical agriculture.
The "Silver Catechisms'' do not speak
Of the marvellous growth of the capital
city of this republic, of the eyer-accu-
mulating wealth, Of the great harbor
and drainage works in process Of con-
struction, or of the railways building or
about to be undertaken by some of the
shrewdest of American capitalists, in
this, the most progressive country on
the continent One would think that
the Indian of the tableland dated his
poverty to the abandonment Of the use
of gold as money, and nothing is said
of the work of education, now going
on, which is to make the Indian OF the
coming generations a far different per
son than at present. We should never
ascribe the degraded condition of the
negro masses of the Southern States
of our mighty neighbor to the employ
ment of the gold standard; we should
rather say that millions of men long en-
shaved are not in a day, or in a series
of years, to be transformed into intelli-
gent and prosperous citizens.-Mexican
Financier

When the Pilgrims went TO Holland
some of them took to themselves Dutch
wives and brought them to America, SO
that the May1ower strain isn't purely
English. The Puritans, who came into
New England ten years later, have con-
ferred upon posterity a purer English
ancestry, providing the immigrants
were not from the Dutch settled por-
tons of England. Nearly all the mill
tary leaders of our colonists were train
ed in Dutch armies. The founders OF
Connecticut, politically educated in
Holland, took, as a model in writing
Connecticut's constitution, the Dutch
republic.

ONE DOLLAR FOR A SHAVE.
A Barber Charged Horace Greeley Extra
for the Honor.

for the Honor.
Many interesting stories of the year
1859 are told by Colorado pioneers, says
the Denver Field and Farm. 1t was
during this year that Horace Greeley
made his famous Western visit and
spoke in the old Denver hall TO large
audience. There was a barber in town
who had come from Germany and in his
native country was a titled man. His
name was Count Mouratt. His wife is
still living near Palmer lake. The
count was a great wag and after the
speech Horace Greeley. wishing to be
shaved was directed To his shop. The
lob was done in the presence of the usual
number of loungers and the count
Strengthened up and addressed Greeley,
saying: 81 felt it to be so great an hon
or to shave Horace Greeley that ! will
be obliged to charge him ST. This
Greeley was forced to pay, to the in
tense amusement of the audience.

The chean Dollar Bugaboo.

In one breath, our goldbug friends
howl "5O-cent dollar" and in the next
they declare that free coinage is all for
the benefit of the silver mine owner.
Well if the silver miner will only get
a 5O-cent dollar for his SO cents worth
of silver, wherein is the benefit to him?
But, if on the other hand, he gets dol
lar for his 80 cents worth of silver,
the silver dollar under free coinage
must be, not a 50-cent but a 1O0-cent
dollar. There is no one quite SO incon-
sistent as the argumentative goldbug.

Vandals.

Maine people are naturally indignant
over the action of summer residents at
Mount Megunticook, who took lot of
dynamite and blew from it's place on a
prominent cliff a twenty-ton boulder
which has been a familiar landmark ever
since the first settlers went there. The
excuse for this vandalism was that they
''wanted to see it make the tumble of
500 feet to the plain below"

From 1916 to 1854 England was the
only country in the world on the ex-
elusive gold standard. In the latter
year Portugal also adopted that stand
ard, and these two countries stood alone
