Water has been such a scarce article
around Kokomo, Ind, that resisting
fires has been almost impossible outside
of the cities and larger towns. The
other night the large farmhouse of A.
S. Mccormack near Rockville, west of
there, took fire. Being no water on the
place, the farm hands and neighbors
fought the flames with vinegar and
cider, a number of barrels of which
were stored in a w~agonhouse, and by
this means saved the adjoining build

The calm, unbiased logic OF the sit
nation is that there is no risk in vot-
ing for Mckinley. All parties con-

vote for Bryan is like leaping in the

but the strong probability is that
there is danger ahead. Mr.. Bryan

The blood is the vital fluid, and when
it is poor, thin and impure you must

In his speech recently from the balcony of the Coates house MT Bry- an affirmed the doctrine that every man had right to worship God ac- cording to the dictates of his own con- science, and this declaration, by the way, brought forth more applause than any other point in his address. Major Mckinley is also opposed to the scheme of making sectarian strife a feature of the campaign. The idea that Americanism depends upon the rejection of a certain religious faith is not big enough to possess a country like the United States, and will never he

lar a bushel instead of sixty cents, it would add to the prosperity of the wheat farmers s2OO,OOO,OOO yearly. We export about SO,O0O,OOO bushels per annum which would swell the balance of trade s32, 2,OOO,OOO in our favor. Here are two items for study you talk about waiting for an international agreement for silver coinage. Should wheat and cotton go to the prices mentioned, we would compel Europe to pay us each year for the cotton she buys of us $225, ,429,34S more than now, and for our wheat $32,OOO,OOO more than now for the same quantity, a grand total of $257000,000 per annum Under these circumstances the problem in twenty years would be for Europe to keep her gold from coming to us, no longer for us to hold our own. We would in time become the creditor Nation of the world, since we were the agricultural storehouse of the world.
 The stimulus of enterprise and in dustry given by dollar wheat, fifteen cent cotton and $12929 silver exceeds the imagination to portray. Every silver mine of promise would be worked, every acre of land would be cultivated. These two direct results of free coinage would be the initia- tion of the greatest era of prosperity the world has ever seen.

Gold monometallists say that a coun- try cannot be so far independent that it can frame it's financial policy with out regard to other nations. They say that it must conform to the policy of the countries with which it does most of it's trading. But why should they not conform to it's policy? The United States might as we'll set the pace fo1 Europe as to let Europe set the pace for it,
