An independent View.

It is the duty Of patriotic citizens to
sink political differences on other points
and rally to the party which stands as a
bulwark Of the currency against silverite
and Populist assaults The Herald rec
ognizes this duty and intends TO per-
form it. Till the contest is decided our
voice shall be raised and our influence
given for the election of MI. Mckinley
to the presidency. The security of the
currency is the paramount question OF
the hour. 1t eclipses all other issues.
Believing that this security can best be
attained by the success of the Republican
party, we promise it our sincere and
hearty support for its presidential ticket
in the pending campaign. Boston Her

The advocates of a dishonest dol
lar are quite naturally not averse to
dishonest methods in making con-
verts. A speech of James G.. Blaine's
delivered in the United States Senate
Feb. Z, 1878, contains passages which,
taken alone, can be construed as fav-
orable to free silver, while the gen.
eral tone of Mr.. Blaine's remarks was
distinctly opposed to it, as other
paragraphs reveal.
Two detached paragraphs from
this speech have been printed in the
form of handbills, and widely circu-
lated for campaign purposes by the
friends of free silver. The republi-
can congressional committee on be-
coming aware of trick proceeded to
counteract it by publishing the en-
tire speech 1t is to be hoped that
every voter who has read the para
graphs printed under quotation
marks will have an opportunity to
see how far the views of dead
statesman, ever mindful Of his coun-
try's, credit, have been perverted by
set of politicians, who would like to
juggle with the currency in tie same
way that they juggle with facts.

DEGENERATION.
How a Great Political Party Has Forfeited
Respect.

-
Respect.
TT ia q reuroach to the country that
the Democratic party has fallen to such
a low estate that men like Altgeld and
Tillman are able to dictate its course
and cause it to repudiate all that is re-
spectable and decent in its past history.
-Four wears ago its convention repre-
scented it's best intelligence and it's sober
ness of habit and tendency, and the peo-
pie were so well pleased with its appar-
ent sincerity and patriotism that they
placed it in control Of the government.
Instead of manifesting q due apprecia-
ton Of this signal favor and striving
to live up to its opportunities it began
at once to give itself over to folly and
mischief, and it has steadily declined in
point of propriety and morality until
today it is covered with shame as with
a garment.
The fact is not to be denied that all
of the most reputable leaders of this de-
generate organization have been thrust
aside in an abrupt and offensive manner
to make room for men who have nothing
to recommend them but their audacity
and their determination. They have not
heretofore been prominent in national
politics; they are not recognized as rep
resentatives of any of the cherished doc
trines or traditions of their party. But
they have contrived to put themselves
in supreme mastery of the Democratic
situation, and their wishes are obeyed
like the commands Of kings or enperors.
They are opposed to all that is safe and
prudent, honest and admirable, in the
management of public affairs and the
promotion of public welfare and happi-
ness. Their methods and purposes are
revolutionary. They appeal to the pas
sions and prejudices of the rabb1e and
court the applause Of rioters and an
archists To see a great political party
absolutely subservienU to such men, per-
hitting them to lead it where they
please, is to look upon public calam-
ity. Fortunately, however, large ma
jority Of the voters of the United States
will act with another party in the pres
ent contest-a party that has not degen-
Grated and that cannot be swerved from
it's attachment to the institutions of the
country and its intention to protect the
rights and interests Of the people

Free Coinage Repudiated In Nevada.

The Reno (Nev.) Gazette contains a
letter from Chief Justice r. R. Bige-
low. Judge Bigelow discusses the duty of
Republicans, thinks free coinage of the
worlds product of silver means ruin
and distress and declares that one place
where this will be felt as keenly as any
where in the country is precisely on the
Comstock lode, among the silver miners
and laborers, who are now clamoring
for free silver, and if they got it would
find their wages scaled down one-half.
Judge Bigelow is now on the supreme
bench of this state, and his personal
standing is as high as his official posi-
ton, SO that his utterances will carry
great weight.

According to celebrated anatomist there
are upwards of 100000 little glands in the
human stomach. These glands pour out the
digestive juices which dissolve or digest the
food. Indigestion is want of juice, weakness
of glands, need of help to restore the health
of these organs. The best and most natural
help is that given by Shaker Digestive Cor
dial. Natural, because it supplies the mater
ials needed by the glands to prepare the di-
gestive juices. Because it strengthens and
invigorates the glands and the stomach, until
they are able to do their work alone. Shaker
Digestive Cordial cures indigestion certainly
and permanently. 1t does so by natural
means, and therein lies the secret of its won
derful and UNMARRIED success.

Every time a free silver orator
claims that free silver coinage law
would increase the price Of wheat and
similar products, he is practically adj
hitting that the American dollar
would be deprecated. The price is
fixed in the Liverpool markets by the
competition of the worlds great
wheat producing nations. The gold
price of these products will depend
entirely on their supply and demand.
Therefore if the price of wheat in
American silver dollars is advanced
so little by free coinage it must be on
ly because the American silver dollar
has deprecated in value and in pur-
chasing power. When the free silver
orator, therefore, says that free coin
age will raise the price of wheat, he
is practically admitting that the
money in which the wage Garner, the
storekeeper, the savings bank de-
position, the life insurance policy
holder, the pension veteran and all
others who have money coming to
them, will be paid will be of less value
than it is now. This should always
be borne in mind, as it forms the very
essence of the free silver movement.

The Blatant Bryan ovation Dissected.

Tested in the crucible of common
sense, MI. B1yan's perfervid peroration
is simply sublimated nonsense. The
gold standard was given effect in this
country with the resump,~n of specie
payments IN 1879. For IL years there
after the United States enjoyed one of
the most prosperous periods in its his
tory. For six years the export price of
wheat was above 81, and of cotton 10
to II cents. Labor was well paid and
generally employed. Our foreign trade
was enormous. Fortune, to be sure,
favored US as to crops and markets, but
the bottom cause of the prosperity was
restored confidence - the assurance of
every body that our dollars were real
dollars and that our sacred promises
would be kept.
Against facts like these the froth of
rhetoric, the thunder of defamation
and the frenzy Of hysterical mob beat
in vain-New York Tribune.
The one and only question for all the
friends of honest money, of honest deal
ing and of safe and conservative govern
ment is how shall Mr.. Bryan and his
party be defeated. Baltimore Sun.

OUR EXPORTS.

The treasury department has not
yet issued it's statement of the ex-
ports and imports for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1896, but some of the
footings have been obtained and pub
lished by the newspapers and these
are said to afford great satisfaction to
the friends of the German tariff be-
cause they show an increase in the
amount of American merchandise sold
abroad as we'll as in the amount
bought in other countries for con-
sumption here. The increase in ex-
ports over 1895 is put in round num-
bers at about $40, 00O,OOO of which
one third comes from the advance in
the price of mineral oils and the other
two thirds from enlarged shipments
of variety of goods.
Whenever we get the exact figure
it will probably appear that our gain
in the export of goods which repres-
ent large employment of labor has
been small and by no means enough
to balance the growth in the impor-
tation of articles which we should
make for ourselves. But however
this may be the single fact that we
have found a foreign market for more
merchandise than we did before the
passage of the German act does not
show that we should congratulate
ourselves upon the change. Until we
know whether the goods we have
sent have not been sold at loss to
the producers we cannot tell whether
we want more or less of such foreign
patronage. The merchant who is
forced to throw his stock upon the
market at half it's cost can generally
do very large business while it lasts
but he does not get rich very fast.
The manufacturer who cuts the prices
of his products so that they do not
half cover the cost of producing them
may clear the storehouses but he can
not afford to unload in that way very
often. So too a nation may be selling
enormous quantities of merchandise
to others and be growing poorer all
the time.

Cruelty to animals often goes on
for some time because those who
know of it are ignorant of the law or
think that it is none of their business
and only belongs to members of anti
cruelty associations, forgetting that
wherever law exists it is the duty of
everyone to get it enforced. Persons
particularly interested in this work
should assume this duty, going about
from time to time among jewellers of
their respective localities and distrib-
uting humane literature, and by OBJ
servation aud inquiry finding out if
there IS any violation of the law
To punish IA man for cruelty is not
enough. Systematic efforts should
be made 10 develop in the heart the
sentiment of kindness and compassion;
Ask teachers in the public schools to
give instruction upon the subject of
kindness to animals request minis

preach against cruelty in all its forms
and calling attention to the great
need there is for more merciful and
considerate treatment of all creatures
