IGNORANCE.

Long Ears
Senator Gallery, of Louisiana, made
a speech upon the currency question in
the senate. the other day. From the
report in the Congressional Record we
take this extract:
Mr.. Daniel: The senator stated that
as civilization advanced silver went
down. Will the senator please state
how that is consistent with the fact
that from 1S47 to 1850, when more gold
was produced, the same people who
are now warning upon silver led the
crusade against gold and actually de-
nonetized II? How is that consistent
with the idea Of the natural law, as
claimed by the senator from Louisiana,
that carried silver down as civilization
advanced?
Mr.. Gallery: Think the senator from
Virginia has not correctly stated the
facts. Gold has never been demone-
tiled in Europe.
Mr.. Daniel: In one or two countries
IL has been.
Mr.. Gallery: There Is no country that
/ know OF in Europe-of course the su-
perior information and knowledge Of
other senators on that point will correct
me IL / am wrong-that ever demone-
tized gold. At the period of.the dis
covery Of the gold mines Of California,
when there was a tremendous output
Of gold. gold being a commodity like
everything else. a noted French writer
Of that period, NJ. Chevalier, in discuss
ing the finances Of France, thought per-
haps it was best to demonetize gold,
but 1t was never done.
Mr.. Mitchell, Of Oregon: Germany
demonetized gold, will say to the SEN
ator.
Mr.. Teller: And so did Holland in
1S47.
Mr.. Caffery: l stand corrected then,
and the question Of the senator from
Virginia now needs an answer.
Here is a senator Of the United States
presuming to instruct the people upon
the subject Of currency, who actually
did not know that two European ma
lions demonetized gold when gold was
cheap and silver was dear. II gold
should now become cheap and silver
dear. we would have repetition of this
performance. and nothing more would
be heard Of the superiority of that gold
standard. The whole purpose of men
who uphold the system is to make
money abnormally dear, and they care
little whether they can accomplish the
end BY using one metal or the other.
Bimetallism means money Of normal
value.-The Manufacturer.

Chicken. Coming HON. to Roo.,.

Philadelphia Record: The Repub-
licans have displayed the utmost reck-
lessness In the manufacture of rotten
borough states in order TO secure more
United States senators and more cleo
toral votes in anticipation OF change
of political sentiment In the populous
parts Of the country. Upon these new
creations the Republicans have felt
that they could always rely. no matter
how high the political tide might run
against them In other directions. But
the Republicans now find that not only
has their hope Of majority in the sem
ate been shattered by the silver states.
but their chances Of electing the next
president have been seriously dimin-
ished.

Springfield Republican: Mayor Pin
gree. Of Detroit, is clearly q man with
a message which the people want to
hear. He has been making a politico-
lecturing trip through Michigan as q
candidate for the gubernatorial nom
ination, and It became from the start
triumphal procession with large crowds
to listen every time he opened his
mouth. He has been greeted every
where with the utmost enthusiasm.
His strong point appears to be that he
cannot only talk anti-monopoly like
any politician. but can, unlike most Of
them. put his words into deeds when
he gets the chance. The old crowd OF
Republicans In Michigan are afraid
that they cannot head him on.

rather frightens his supporters In the

East look with the gravest suspicion
on Mckinley. His record in the past,
the manifest admiration Of the silver

clusion that he is dangerously uncer-

Mari 6t Report

The people have long since learned
that the most disagreeable medicines
are not necessarily the best. In fact,
as rule, they are not. What is
wanted is something. mild and sure,
such as Chamberlain Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. That is
really pleasant to take when reduced
with water and sweetened. Then it is
acknowledged everywhere to be the
most successful remedy in the world
for bowel complaints. Ask any num-
Der of druggists for the best remedy
they haYe for diarrhoea and fully nine
out of ten will recommend Chamber
lain's. In speaking of this medicine,
Mr.. B. B. Buffum of Friendsville,
Susquehanna Co., Pa, says: "We
have used it in our family for pain in
the stomach, collie and diarrhoea and
found it to be a most effective remedy"
