DID NOT RALLY

President E. L. Pullen in his address
September % to the Bankers association
at st. Louis said:
Banks, especially national banks,
have been assailed by the vituperation
of ignorance and passion. The banks
rallied to the support OF the government
in the darkest hour of it's history and sup
piled the money to defend its honor and
Its life" President Pullen was in a
measure mistaken If he meant to in
clude the national banks among those
that did the ''rallying." Fort Sumpter
was bombarded and war began in April,
1861. Lee surrendered April 8. 1865. The
first national bank act passed February
25. 1863. 1t was found to be defective
and substitute was passed June 8, 1864.
Doubtless they would have rallied" but
the fact is that the war was half over be-
fore they were born. 1t Is physical
impossibility for an unborn institution
to rally.-Terre Haute (Ind) Gazette.

OHIO LOST TO M'KINLEY.

I had atalk with Mr.. Beriah Wilkins,
proprietor of the Washington Post, to-
Gay. Mr.. Wilkins represented Ohio in
congress several terms. He keeps In
touch with the political situation there,
as well as any man in the country. His
paper has been neutral, and 1 think his
personal predictions are toward gold
He said, however, that information from
his old district in Ohio, from the most re-
liable sources, led him to believe that
Bryan will have 1900 ma ajority there In
the last election the Republican major
ity was 800.
Mr.. wilkins received letter from one
of the leading railroad mechanics at
Cleveland. saying that Cleveland would
give Bryan $1,000 majority. At the last
election Cleveland went Republican by
5000. Mr.. Conger, formerly chairman
of the Republican committee, and at one
time a member of the Republican na-
tional committee, dropped into Mr.. Will
kins' office few days ago and told Mr.
Wilkins that he had apprised Mr.. Hanna
that Cleveland was lost to the Republic
an party.
Mr.. Wilkins says that a careful poll
of the state. made to ascertain the true
situation, gives Mr.. Bryan the state by
$4,000 majority.-General Joe Hickey in
st. Louis Republic.

Of municipal affairs. San Francisco Is
in effect governed by the governor and
legislature Of California under what IS
known as the consolidation act and, in
consequence, for years the municipal
affairs of that city have been dove
tailed with those Of the state. Time
and again political thugs and schemers
have sought and obtained the control
of the state legislature for the purpose
of working through legislation that
would enable them to inflict some rob-
bing job on the people Of that much be-
bodied burg.
The tendency all over the United
States has been in the direction of
granting practical autonomy to munich
palities. 1t has long since been ascer-
tanned that there are many things about
the government and development oe
cities that lot of the legislators hailing
from rural districts know not or but lit
tie, of, and that the less these legislators
have to say about those things the bet
ter for the people of the cities and
towns, and the lighter the duties I'M
posed on the statesmen unacquainted
with the necessities and demands of
urban life.

WHAT FREE COINAGE MEANS

Free coinage of silver means more
money in circulation.
More money means advance in prices.
Advance in prices means the invest
ment of more capital.
This investment means an increase
in the demand for labor.
This demand will give workingmen
increased wages.-Buffalo Times.

what we want" says Mckinley, lis
money that is equally good all over the
world
There is no such money" says John
w. Bookwalter, in his treatise. 1.-THE
coin we send abroad is only bullion
when it gets there. and most dealers pre-
fer government bars. The exchange
must be calculated exactly the same
whether we use gold, silver or paper in
our domestic trade; and this notion that
we should be at a disadvantage" is a
delusion. The variations in the value of
the greenback during our war era were
calculated daily, and prices in this coun-
try rose and fell to correspond. 1t must,
l say. be calculated just the same in gold
or silver. and any smart school boy can
do it in minute in any transaction"

votes Of these two states. added to the

Mr.. Henry George, the special corre-
spondent of the New York Journal, who
has been stopping in Canton. Ohio, few
days, writes that "Canton will vote
against Mckinley" Mr. George ex-
plains that while Gov. Bushnell had q
plurality Of 547. nevertheless his vote
was 141 below that of the combined op-
position, and 2S4 below the present may
ors vote. There seems to be little ques-
tion that Canton and the county in
which it is situated will be carried for

Mark Hanna declared himself conf
dent of the votes of workingmen. His
confidence is based solely upon their fear
instead of their love. Workingmen,
however, with the Australian ballot have
nothing to fear. They will vote as their

able that their love for the modest Mark
will induce them to place the arch-foe of
labor in a position to still further show
his power of crushing them.

their yelling, but as they crept nearer

OONVIOTs IN CONVENTION.
Life Prisoners In tho Ohio Penitentiary
to Test q Law.

Thirty prisoners in tho Ohio peniten-
tiary, who are serving life sentences under
the habitual criminal act, recently held
one of the most novel conventions that
ever assembled in this country. They met
In the prison chapel, In response to a call
issued by Warden Coffin, who stated, after
they had taken their seats, that the object
was to devise somo means to raise funds
to test the validity Of the habitual GRIM
inal act.
Moses Murphy notorious burglar, was
chosen chairman Of the meeting. He cau-
toned the prisoners against making dis
turbance and called on Hiram Mcknight,
the celebrated convict lawyer, for a speech.
Mcknight made IA mastery argument, and
then collection was taken TO enable one
of the prisoners TO make test case. Sew
eral hundred dollars were raised, and more
money Is promised In few days
Jason Case, one OF the inmates Of the
prison, became excited and offered to give
a barrel of money, which he said he had
planted. An executive committee was ap-
pointed, and Warden Coffin granted per.
mission for another meeting to perfect ar
rangcments for the proposed test case.

airy horses had the advantages in climb
ing the ridges and were still in good
wind. They were certain to reach the
military road first, barring accident.
bullet after bullet went flying after the
fugitiyes, and when the road was only
mile away the officer suddenly lifted
in his saddle again. A bullet had struck
him in the left hip. The Indians knew
that he was hit again and yelled in tri-
umph. The girl looked back, and the
officer closed up the distance and
shouted to her through his clinched
teeth:
"We are close upon the road now! BE
sure and turn to the left!"
Down the slope of ridge as steep as
a house roof Numbered the riders into
the highway, and after them came the
redskins. A turn to the left, and then.
riding side by side, the officer and the
girl used the spurs for the first time
and began to draw quickly away. The
race was lost 10 the pursuers, and in
their rage they fired their Winchesters
as fast as they could pull the trigger.
Ping! Pingl Pingl sang the bullets.
One OF them grazed the lady's hat-an-
other passed through her riding-slSirt
IA third struck the officer in the calf of
the right leg.
"Are you hit 2" he asked, as he turned
TO her.
"No--are your"
"Only grazed, think. It can't be
over two miles to the run, and the In
dians will soon give up the chase. Hello
what's this!"
Half an hour previously one of the ser
geant's party at DEVILS Run had climbed
n high hill to examine some growing
timber which might be used for the
bridge. Looking away to the east he
had seen the officer and the lady as they
galloped for their lives, and he had no
sooner given the alarm than the SER
geant ordered every man TO saddle up.
1t took ten minutes to get started, but
they rode fast and were in time. AS
they met the fugitives they drew aside
and let them pass and then fell upon
the four Indians and wiped three of
them of the face OF the earth. The
fourth abandoned his pony and es-
capped up a revine, When the sergeant
