NoTlN POLITICS.

The International Typographical Union
 Expunges Free Silver Resolution.
 COLORADO SPRINGS, Oct. 16.-The h. ternational Typographical union after a warm discussion voted to strike from the minutes the following resolution:
 Resolved by the International Typo graphical union in convention assem-. bled on the summit of Pike's peak, on this. the 14th day of October, 1896, that we believe in the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of IS to l, 7, and the adoption of laws restoring sll- yer toits rightful place as the same exist ed prior to '73, and this without waiting for the consent of any other nation"
 The supporters of Bryan and free sn- yer were largely in tho majority, but they thought the adoption of such reso- lution would injure the union, as here tofore the union has taken no dish in politics.

THE editor of our esteemed even. ing contemporary lambasted the writer sometime ago for attending a sparfing exhibition in this city. We very much regret to chronicle that the editlor of the aforesaid e. e. C., after all his words and works in de nouucing the prize ring and the evil and demoralizing effects of the same upon the growing youths oi the land, should so far forget him self as to lend his august and obstfeperous presence to an occas- ion of that nature. The Major should remember the evll effects oi bad example, and if hereafter Jimmy" as Grandpa Newman is pleased to cali IS. should follow tho example of tfe venerable editor O

 have the goodness of heart to brool silence and look leniently upon tn, short comings of his junior in years

TAKING its cue from the esteemed Cb8anercsal, the Helena World last Spring severely criticised the editor of the GRAPHIC for attending a sparring exhibition in this city. We beg to direct the World editors attention to the fact that there was another sparring exhibition in this city last night at which the editor of the Commercial was the "main guyp atthe fight, and he is now an enthusiastic admirer of the smanly art.

GONSLSTENeY

It will be remembered that some time during last spring the esteem ed Commercial roasted the editor of the GRAPHIC because the latter vas a member of an audience that witnessed 3 sparring exhibition in the arena of the Pine Bluff Athletic Association. The Commercial had reporter present at that tima, and the editor of the GRAPHIC was the only representative of the GRAPHIC present on that occasion. But this did not prevent the next issue of the DaHy ComBercial from publishing the fact that the editor of the GRAPHIC was present, and incl dentally as one of the promoters of the prize-ring. For several weeks thereafter the editor of the Comnaef- ciol waged a bitter warfare upon the local sports, with on occasional hit at the editor Of the GRAPHIC thrown in. Prize-fights-.were de- nounced as oru:al and the pugilists as thieves, pugs and pluguglies. The fact that the editor of the GRAPHIC was present at the prize ring, taking it's cue from the Commercial, was also noted and animadverted upon by the Helena World, and these strictares also found a prominent place in the columns of the Commercial.
 But since then, in consequence Of more equitable distribution of patronage, change has come over the spirit of the dreams of the editor of the Commercial, for on last night there was another sparr- ing, rexhibitione.ln the arena of the Pine Bluff Athletic Association, at which, we are reliably informed, the editor of the esteemed Commercial was q prominent and enthusiastic spectator. Ye gods and little fishes, what change AS the Major wit messed the exciting mill, all the denunciation he, had heaped upon the prize ring must have found vivid place in his memory. We hope he did not find itas ugly as he had pictured if, and we trust that he enjoyed the sport.
 The GRAPHIC would pot deny the editor of its esteemed evening con- temporary the exhilirating pleasure of witnessing a scientific exhibition of the manly art, nor would we pass any words of censure on his manly head therefor, for 9 scien- tifc glove contest, conducted in a proper manner, is no more brutal or harmful than a base ball or~foot ball game. But we simply desire to direct public attention to the fact that the editor of the Commercial finds pleasure in doing that which he finds blameworthy in the editor of the GRAPHIC; and it seems to Us that what is sauce for the goose ought to be sauce for the gander.

FUsI0N AT LAST COMPLETE

FUSION AT LAST COMPLETE.
 Following the St. Louis eonven- tion that nominated Bryan and Watson there seemed to be serious obstacles in the way of a union of populists and democrats on single electoral tickets. But with a com mon object in view it was inevitable that they should come together. and as the campaign hears it's close it is found that fusion has been effected in every State where a combination of forces might result in victory for Bryan. In twenty-seven States fu- sion has been agreed upon, with division of electors between the parties as follows:
 California--Dem 5; Populists |.

The old story of Prometheus is a parable, an allegory. Prometheus was on terms of intimacy with the gods From them h1 stole fire, and gave it to men. For this sin he was bound to the rocks of Mount Cau. casus, and vultures were set upon him. They only ate his liver This grew again as fast as 1t was pecked away. Are his suf. ferings to be imagined? Yes, and realized.
 Take a modern interpretation of the par. able There is no cooking without fire. In cooking and eating the mischief lies. The stomach is overtasked, the bowels become clogged, they cannot dispose of the food that is given them. The impurities back up on the liver. Then come the vultures. Tie sufferings from an outside visible hurt, are a mere pin-scrateh to the torments of diseased liver
 But, moderns are ahead of the ancients. There is a sequel to the old story Dr. Pierce is the author. His Golden Med ical Discovery Is more than equal to the vultures of dyspepsia and it's kindred dis. eases. Every atom Of the Discovery , IS an active agent against disease. It flies like a ferret, wherever 1t is sent. It is as sure as the needle of the compass There Is no more need of suffering from dyspepsia than there IS of hanging ones self

A Card from HerOd.

We take it as an unmanly thrust at our

gentleman as the editor of the Guard
should throw such dirty fling at Pro-

bis pupils. 1t was a cowardly criticism,
to say the least of it, and we, as repre-

such communication as unkind in the
editor of the Guard, unfair to Professor
Hitler and unjust to his pupils. We
un lerstand the editor says it was all in

the editor to write under his own name

unconscious condition. The family ply
stefan and neighbors were quickly sum-
moned, but their min:strati0ns were of
avail and life was entirely gone in fif-
teen minutes. Mrs. Simmons had suf-
fered with neuralgia in her right side for
several days. It gradually extended to
the left, and when it reached the heart
proved fatal.
Mrs. Simmons leaves no children. She
