Ex-President Harrison has written a
noteworthy article on the silver question
for the October number of The Forum. II
Is probably the abest contribution to the
discussion yet made.
lmgham County News: When asked by
an old veteran last week If he was in favor
of free silver, Ex-Governor Luce replied,
.s'God forbid, shall vote for Mckinley and
Hobart and protection, in November, If 1
am alive"
President Mccall of the New York Life
Insurance Company and President King Of
the Union Trust Company have written
articles for the October Forum, pointing out
clearly and forcibly how free coinage at a
ratio of 16 to would affect life insurance
and trust companies, and especially their
clients.

when we buy so much abroad we have no
money left to pay our own laborers. The
protective tariff provides a market for our
own produce. 1t ''keepsit all in the fami-
ly." 1t merely takes care of our own peo-
pie first. While we are in duty bound to
care for our own first yet no other country
has done as much as ours to raise the gen.
eral average of wages throughout the world.
During the campaign Of '92 there we're over
two million of women who were obliged to
earn their living, now there are over three
million. Machinery now does most of the
work our grandmothers used to stay at home
and do. But do you wish woman's work to
be brought into competition with that of
Chinese and Japanese women, where girls
from ten to fifteen years of age work eleven
or twelve hours per day, days one week,
nights the next, two shifts being employed.
Talk about labor having free play, we don't
want it to. We've started out to be a diff
ferent people from other people of the earth,
and we want to stay so.
In speaking of capital Mrs. Foster showed
what magnificent developments have been
made in the west with foreign and eastern
capital, much of which as in irrigating
| canals, had never been and never would be
paid back to the east, owing to the failure
of the companies which put them in. But
| they are there and the west has the use of
them.
The republican party stands for equality
of opportunity for all. After very brief
contrast of the two candidates the address
was ended.
Three rousing cheers were then given for
Mckinley and these were followed by three
more for the speaker, showing the apprecia-
ton which her efforts had secured.

DEMOCRATIC NEWS.

At'the meeting OF the Democratic
State Central Committee, Of which j.
r. Ryan is Chairman, held in this city
on Saturday, August 18th, the follow
ing resolution, introduced by Major
Dennis, was unanimously adopted: =
The Democratic State Central Com
mittee congratulates the people OF
Nevada upon the favorable prospect
for the realization of their most cher
ished but long deferred hope in the
restoration Of silver to its former place
in the currency volume of the Nation.
The adoption Of free coinage plat
form and the nomination of sound
silver candidates by the Democratic
National Convention; the indorse-
ment OF the principles and nominees
by the National Bimetalic Convention
and the favorable action of the Pop
ulist National Assemblage are most
gratifying and encouraging to the
friends Of the white metal throughout
the Union. The action of these three
National parties prove conclnsively
that the greatness of the people have
determined 10 subordinate all other
issues to the one great and all i'm
portant matter OF re-establshing the
bimetallic monetary system, under
which our republic prospered for
nearly a century and up to the de-
monetizatOn act in 1873.

Nest of CIock Springs.

In the Museum of Natural History at Soleure, in Switzerland. there is birds nest made entirely of steel. There are a number of clock-making shops at Soleure, and in the yards of these there are often found lying disused or broken springs of clocks. One day clock maker noticed in tree in his yard birds nest of peculiar appearance. EX- amining it, he found that a pair of wag- tails had built a nest entirely of clock springs. It was more than four inches across, and perfectly comfortable for the birds. After the feathered archi- tects had reared their brood, the nest was taken to the museum, where it is preserved as a. striking illustration of the skill of birds in turning their sur 1oundings to advantage in building their nests.

"FORM" IN BICYCLING.
How Society People Go 8 Wheeling-At
 tending Grooms and Maids.

The form of bicycling is beginning to be studied. Grooms on wheels must follow their mistresses as they did on horseback; it is probably only a ques- tion of a short time when the lady's maid will have to include wheeling with her other accomplishments to secure situation. On the road the woman who wishes to ride a la mode has to know a number of little things that are over looked by another woman, just as the smart set have a code for riding and driving that is as memorable as that they should not eat with their. knives or put sugar on oysters. Society in- sists on an upright position, with, of course, no attempt at racing pace. It also frowns upon constant ringing of the bell-that will do for the vulgar herd who delight in noise; the well-in- formed wheelwoman keeps eyes and ears alert and touches her bell rarely.

HARD TUSSLE WITH BRUlN.
Oregon Hunter Attacks Bear with an
 Ordinary Jackknife.

Ordinary Jackknife.
 J. c. Hearing, who was hunting and trapping in the Blue mountains, few niles west of Elgin, met with little ad- venture with a bear recently that might have proved rather serious to him had ii not been for the intervention of one of his dogs, says the Portland Oregonian. He was engaged in setting traps, and as he had considerable weight to carry he had no weapon with him except jack knife, and on his rounds his dogs dis covered the winter quarters of bear in big hollow tree. The bear was at home, and was pretty much alive, as sub- sequent events proved. As bear peltsare quite valuable, Jake was quite anxious to secure this one, but was afraid that if he went to camp, mile and half dis tant, bruin would escape, so he lashed his pocketknife to the end of stick and attempted to cut the animals throat. He only succeeded in inficting some pain fuI flesh wounds, which so enraged the brute that it suddenly came out of it's hole, and was almost on him when one of his dogs made sudden onslaught on the animals rear, which diverted his attention long enough to enable Jake to dodge behind a tree, and the dogs soon made it so tropical for the bear that it was glad to take refuge in tree, where they kept it until a gun was procured from camp, when the animal was uuick1y diSDatched

OLD LIGHTHOUSE.
Was Built by the Romans and Is Still in
 Good Condition.

Good Condition.
 The oldest house existing in Eng land is the Roman Pharos or lighthouse. which still forms so conspicuous an ob- Ject on the cliffs within the precincts Of Dover castle. The masonry of this interesting work is composed of tufa, cement and Roman bricks, or tiles, and is in the best style of Roman workman. ship. History and tradition are alike silent as to the actual date of it's erec- tion, but, judging from the style of masonry, and bearing in mind that the erection of such beacon would be a practical necessity when once the Ro- mans had thoroughly established them selves in southern Britain, one may fairly ascribe it to date not much later than the middle of the first century, A. D., following on the expedition of Clau- dius, and the succeeding conquests of Plautius, who brought most of the island south of the Thames under the Roman domination. To the upper part of this lighthouse was added in Tudor times an octagonal superstructure, still remaining, although in sadly bat tered condition. The remains of lake dwellings, such as have been found at Burton Mere, ill Suffolk, and near Glas. tonbury, in Somerset, are supposed by some to date back so far as 1900 B. C.; but, although these are built on piles, they hardly come within the meaning of the question.

MOST PECULIAR ROOSTER.
He Very Much Resembles a Bird of Par
 adise.


 adise.
 To see a rooster that resembles a bird of paradise is a rare sight, but such a one has recently been a common spec tacle in Japan, says the New York World
 This particular fowl was, apart from his gorgeous appendage, of the ordinary type found in Japan, except that he was a little more proud in his bearing than his fellows.
 It may have been his manner that first led to his selection as the bearer of q most magnificent tail. The brief history that can be obtained of this freak rooster is silent on that point. It prob ably was selected because only an arro- gant, lordly manner could support such wonderful and variegated appendage. Be that as it may, the rooster did cer- tainly have a tail Is feet long. In it were all the bright colors imaginable. The tail was far more brilliant in it's color ings than the shining feather-fan of d peacock.
 The neighbors of the Jap displayed no interest in the freak bird, but were amused by those who expressed admira- tion and wonder, who were invariably foreign travellers.
 Then it was discovered that the beau tiful long tail was not freak of nature, but the clever work of the ingenious Jap, who had fashioned and fastened the tail in such a way as to defy detection except after the most minute scrutiny.
