ABLE TO HAVE OUR OWN MONEY.

A'A
This sounds we'll but is another
plausible idea as rotten as 10 to /.
1.-THE borrower is always servant to the
lender" Now, W stand in the list of
borrowing nations-we are in debt.
Can the ~borrower-be he man or mo-
tion-dictate his own terms, or is it the
man who lends the money who die
tates the tefms9 For instance, 20 to a
bank to have your note discounted, the
bank says: "Yes, I will lend you the
money, but you must pay me eight per
cent. interest" You reply that is
against the law, you a charge only
six per cent. Then" says the cashier,
you can't get any money from this
bank" True, you can walk away, yet
you must have the money-your neces-
stiles require it. Who controls the stu
alton?
A borrowing nation can never die
tate terms about borrowing money,
until she has no debts to pay-no need
to ask for money, and until the gold in
her treasury is her own, and does not
belong to foreign syndicates.

Losing
Flesh

You naturally lose flesh in
the summer and running down
is so easy. You get a little
weaker each day without hard
ly noticing it. There is loss Of
appetite, headache, weakness
Of the muscles, disturbed sleep,
weakness ofmemory, andthese
are the beginning Of nervous
prostration. Iron and tonics
and bitters may afford some
temporary relief, but what you
need is a food for body, brain
anG nerves.

THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER.

The country newspaper as a builder
of public opinion is the most potent
influence of the press.
In the fret place, it is read. The
ordinary city paper is simply observed.
The busy man reads its head lines and
throws the paper way. The subscriber
to the country newspaper takes his
time, reads his paper, lays itaway, and
mentally digests what news comes to
him. He does not feel called upon to
keep abreast of the minutest details of
the markets, or the political outings
and innings of parties. Sensations, the
life of the city sheet, do not take hold
of him. A murder or a shooting or q
hanging, with him is an event of the
past and does not greatly concern him.
His quiet life has no fever in its brain.
In the second place, the country
newspapers information is not spread
over all space, but appearsin condensed,
boiled down form, easily caught and
easily retained. The universal feeling
after reading a city newspaper is,"How
little there is in it," The rubbish of a
blanket sheet is enormous. Reading is
not the chief end CT man, but action is.
The farmer, for instance, has only time
to read matters Of real Importance and
his reading is followed by reflection,
which ends in action.
In the third place, the best discus
sions in the shape of thought, patient
research, wide views, these days, come
through the monthlies instead of the
old book form. A bright, country
newspaper will give its readers the best
of these discussions in short forms
send you to original sources for infoI-
nation, or to the magazines them
selves. The Review of Reviews" or
The Forum" in connection with the
county newspaper, will afford q man
or a woman about all the reading they
have the time to indulge in during the
busy week.
Lastly, "a country newspaper is q home
product. 1t is the life we live. 1t may
not be the best newspaper the world,
but it is the mirror of the thinking,
the wants, the events of our home
folks. Deaths, marriages or births, a
thousand miles off are nothing to us,
but our next door neighbours joys and
affiliations are our own. We want to
know all about them. The public
meetings, the politics, the %preachings,
the courts, the picnics, even the society
columns have q sort of personal near
ness. The advertisements are no mean
part of the paper. They contain a
world of news. and deep meanings to
him who can read between the lines.
If you can take but one newspaper
take your county paper-and pay for 1t.

Instead of our present standard dollar
Of one hundred cents, we would get a
fifty cent dollar; and wages would fall
from their present American standard,
call it one dollar per day, to an aver
age of thirty four cents per day. This
sum is what the agricultural workman
gets in Mexico, and boards himself,
where Mexican dollars represent only
American half dollars. Mexico's poor
people never taste meat, never have a
shoe, and clothing rarely sufficient to
cover their nakedness. This is the
feast of fat things" that we are in
vited to by the free silver advocates.

LITTLE ARorT SILVER.

The Republican party Is %silver's
wisest and best friend. 1t will not al
low it to be debased nor to be dishou-
ored IL demands that it shall hold its
rightful place in the currency of the
country and the world. 1t does not
want cheap money for the poor man,
dear money for the rich man, but
sound, honest money for all men. Sill.
yer has never been a fetch with the
Republican party. 1t has never regard
ed 1t as by far the most precious thing
on earth. But il has recognized ito uses
and claimed for it just wha. 1t deserved.
Under Republican administrations and
Republican legislation the greater part
of our silver money has been coined,
and Republican craftsmanship, not
withstanding its pie illness and in
creased production from year to year,
has maintained It's parity with all forms
of government money. And had the
Republican party been continued in
power we would never have been cursed
with this violent agitation over the
currency question, as every bounty OF
Gods providence would have been
appropriated to its own legitimate use
without any question or misgivings.
The car of progress would have rolled
on without any serious obstruction,
and the 10Y oppressed and impoverish.
ed millions, who feed on crusts and
cloths themselves in rags, would DO
enjoying plenty and comfort.
The Republican party will handle
and dispose of this vexed and vexing
currency question with the snme signal
ease and success with which it has met
the conditions growing out of the in
dustrial question. 1t alone can repair
the waste and ruin of Democratic mis-
rule and mismanagement. 1t alone
n call back the properties that van.
ished before the baleful stare of DEM
ocratic ascendency. The people we'll
remember the good times when money
a abundant, labor employed, indus
try rewarded and no cry of hunger or
wall of distress in all the broad land;
and well they remember, too, that in
this era of prosperity and happiness
the policies of the Republican party
dominated the Government.
This is q time Of revolution. The
people a not endure their oppres-
sions. They Il not endure impover-
ishment and dire need, because they
know what plenty is and what it means.
They are turning away from del usions
and snares. They have had their fill
of crazes. They know the old standard
remedies of Republicanism will cure
all their ills and bring back health,
hope and joy. And so when the storm
is over and its lightnings no longer
flash in the sky and its thunders have
rolled away in the distance, Mckinley
will be in the White House, Hobart will
weld the Senatorial gavel, Congress
will be Republican and the stream of
national life will flow smoothly on and
the sunshine of happiness and pros
perity will dance with silver feet upon
every wave.

Our patrons, whose accounts have
been put out for collection, can only
blame themselves for our long delayed
performance of a painful duty. The
books have to be squared some way or
some how, so that we may know the
full extent of our impoverishment. 1t
is not excruciatingly pleasant to be a
hostage of despair, and a balanced
ledger, whether we get any money or
not, will tell us exactly where we are
at.D

MExICANIzING AMERICAN LABOR.

The point made by the eminent Dem
ocratic Populistic Atkinson, that the
direct result of the Democratic free
silver ideas, put in their platform at
Chicago, if successful, will be to Next
canize American labor, is too far reach
ing to be passed over indiferently.
Nothing more important on the SUBJECT
has come from the press.
The matter would stand this way:
