BOGUS SILVER MEN ALARMED.

Last year and early in the present
year the Republican papers of San
Francisco had much to say in favor
OF free coinage. They admitted that
the restoration of silver was necessary
to restore prosperity, bnt claimed that
the only way to secure free silver was
to vote the Republican ticket. Now
three-fourths OF the Republican State
conventions have declared for the gold
standard and it is admitted that the
National convention will declare
against free coinage if not in plain
words at least in language that can
be so construed. Now those bogus
silver papers are alarmed at the effect

had a correct picture Of the right
hand Of a famous forger recently cap
tured, and the next day it had a large
cut Of jim Corbetts right arm besides
another showing the muscles of his
breast and also q Of his back. Now
surely this is enterprise, and the peo-
pie or San Francisco can never deny
0 bnt what the Monarch Of the
dailies' is publishing just what they
most demand. We know it must be
gratifying to the artistic. highly edu-

someone Of $4,000. Yes we believe
the people OF San Francisco are living
awake nights crying for this sort Of
literature, they must be. for the Ex-

that they gave their readers just what
