RELATIVE VALUE.

S. H. Trelnar, bandmaster of the
famous Boston and Montana band that
accompanied the Montana delegation to
Chicago, is something Of a silver man as
we'll as musician, On the homeward
journey, tbe band stopped at S. Paul,
and, on being interviewed, Mr.. Traloar
hit the following Knockout blow ut ono
Of the alleged arguments of tho gold
men: The gold men say that the re-
monetizaton Of silver will put fictitious
value Oh il. Let me ask you il the re.
monetization Of gold has not put a tic-
tltious value on it? Look at Cripple
Creek, for instance, There gold can be
mined for % cents an ounce, and it sells
at $40 an ounce. Isn't that fictitious
value? They say that silver can be
mined at 30 cents an ounce and that we
want to give IL value of 51OO, | would
like to know which is worse, to give it
fictitious yaluo 80 times as much or
twice as much" This is rather an in
geriou5 way Of diep)slng of one Of the
most quoted vagarIGs Of the gold men,
and is quite az far and logical as tho
statement that provoked it. II has 20

keep this fact steadily in mind: His vote
for Mckinley and Hobart is worth
double his vote for the best democrat
that the sane part Of the party could put
up as protest against the iniquity con

cere democrat who, understanding all
that the election means for our beloved
country, is wiling to cut his vote in two

nothing IN this contest. His previous
political affiliations are nothing. Acct

in reducing the gold reserve below the

will be d profit of million or two in the

The resolution in the Chicago plat

called forth the ire of many alleged
patriots. II the court had not, by
its action, invited comment none
would have been offered. A previous
supreme court had decided that an in

of the present court had voted to sus-
tain that proposition, but before the de-
cision was finally announced Justice
Shiras changed his mind. In view of

the great interest involved his conduct
was open to criticism, if not to suspicion.
That is all there is to it. To maintain
respect the court must respect
itself. The demand of the convention
that congress try to enact an income tax
law that will be constitutional was
proper, and will meet the approval of
four fifths Of the voters.

If Mark Hannas checks and the cash OF

During the past two weeks she and her
brother Luis, two years her senior, have
been sufferers from whooping-cougb. As
was their daily habit. they started with
their nurse OH Saturday morning last for
walk to Golden Gate Park.
The babies were toddling along chat
ting, laughing and casting at each other
some few flowers they had pIucked at
home few moments before. The nurse
followed them closely until at the corner
OF Devi>adero and Fell streets the boy
was taken with a coughing spasm. She
lent him her assistance, and when the fit
was nearly over she moved over toward
Nadine, the baby girl, who, as though in
sympathy with her brother, had likewise

reach her the paroxysm had increased and
she had staggered off the curbstone.
subsequent events are indistinct in the
mind of the nurse There was q whirI-
wind rush, dull noise and her pretty
charge lay on the asphalt pavement With
2O0-pound rider and his bicycle on top
of her.
The nurse speaks no English, but her
cry OF mon Dieu, ellie est morte |" told in
her mother tongue the terrible impress
sion that had come over her.
She rushed forward and tugged at the
PROSTATE rider so as to get him from off
the child. He rose slowly and raised his
wheel.
He glanced at the nurse, who had raised
the unconscious and bleeding baby in her
arms. said not word, but mounted again
and rode away as swiftly as he could

men who had jumped of passing car in
an effort to intercept him.

proper treatment it can be east
