a Good Hit.

In his speech at Wheeling on the
3Oth of last month, Mr.. Bryan among
many other good things, said;
81 call your attention to another
thing. and that is, that, instead OF
declaring themselves TO be gold stan
dard men they call the mselves advo
Gates of sound money, because they
are ashamed to use the name even
that describes their position. (Great
applause.) Instead of saying they
are for gold, they pirate about an
honest dollar, when they know that
the gold dollar is the most dishonest
dollar in the land to day, aud they
love it most when it most dishonest.
Great applause.
Instead of using the words, '.gold
standard the boilers use the words
sound money" They are afraid to
style themselves as in favor of the
single gold standard. The Demo
Gratis resort to no suoh subterfuges.
They declare themselves to be true
Democrats, and they also declare
themselves to be i'll favor of bimetal
ism. They are for the free and un-
limited coinage of silver, as well as
OF gold, and they do not attempt to
conceal the fact from anybody. They
are proud of their name and their
creed.-RichmoDd Dispatch.

This wage question is filling a

cannot be too often presented.
Stripped of useless verbiage, it may
be stated thus: Wages are payable
In dollars. not in commodities. 1t is
proposed to reduce the purchasing
power of dollar 40 per cent, or to
put up the prices of commodities by
that amount, which is the same
thing, without any guarantee or

Wages are payable in dollars not
in commodities. True enough. If
they were payable in commodities
and commodities were dear, wages
would be low. icing payable in

out, if money becomes dear wages
will go down. The only effect of
such contraction Of the currency as

clippings from a letter to the Bris-

Gen. Walker and Judge Williams

that county:
General Walker said:
"There are two kinds of men
who never change their onlnion.
One is those who have not sense
enough to change. The other is
those who know enough, but who
are SO deeply dyed in part san
spirits that they cannot change
and those are the damn fool demo.

Now we would like to ask the
editor of the Republican a fair
question and desire an honest an.

terday morning. Schoder was accus-
toned to sleep in rear room in the
cigar store of his brother Jacob Schoder,
at 1895 Holden street, and the brother,
who lives next door, stepped in to sum-
mon him to breakfast. Entering by the
rear door he called, but receiving no
answer. went through the back room in
to the front apartment. which is the
store room proper, in the rear end of
which was the room occupied by Samuel
-Schoder for sleeping purposes. No
sooner had he stepped into the store
than ne saw his brother in the front
part of the room apparently hanging
by a rope fastened to a hook near the
window, his toes just touching the floor.
Jacob Schoder at once rushed out of
the place, and meeting a friend, George
Mienger. switchman on engine No. $40
of the Denver & Rio Grande railway,
shouted. Come, 1 believe my brother
Sam is dead" Together they entered
the store, and the mans body being cut
down found that life was already ex-
tinct.
Although the suicide was suspended
near the front window of the cigar shop
he could not be seen from the street
because OF a heavy curtain hung over
the window. II was to one Of the hooks
supporting the curtain rod that he had
attached the cord that had caused his
death. The material which had stran-
gled him was heavy wrapping Irvine

New York, July 1.-THE marriage of
Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., and Miss
Gray Wilson, which was arranged TO
take place several weeks ago, but which
was postponed owing to the illness OF
the young man may be celebrated any
day. 1t Is now asserted that it is 10
be theosophist union. People are
asking, too, if under the circumstances
Cornelius Vanderbilt is justified in his
opposition to his sons marriage.
Miss Gray Wilson, so the latest story
goes, had a remarkable dream las sum-
mer at Newport. Her dream unfoided TO
her that Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., was
her affinity. Miss Wilson, so it is said.
took steps within twenty-four hours TO
materialize her gratifying vision. Cor
nelius Vanderbilt. Jr., was invited TO
take luncheon with her at Bienvenue.
The story of Miss Wilson'S dream got
whispered about at Newport. The oc-
cult evidence of its accuracy was not
long delayed. 1t was the fiction of Mary
and her little lamb repeated. Where
Miss Wilson went Cornelius Vanderbilt.
Jr., was sure TO go.
