Bedford of Colorado, the man who ad-
vocates the secession of the silver states
from the union, is virtually a stranger
to the great public these days, notwith-
standing less than a dozen years ago he
was one of the freaks of congress. He
was known as the 'Red-headed Rooster
of the Rockies and was more or less
famous as the originator of a proposition
to send people to the penitentiary for life

Speaking in support of the bill 10 pre-
vent bond issues except with the sane
ton of congress, Senator Mills sarcastic
ally referred to the marriages of American
heiresses and penniess foreign aristocrats.
The country at large will readily agree
with the gentleman from Texas that the
cause of the trouble with the federal treas
ury is the freedom with which American
girls marry whom they please. If they
were not permitted to marry foreigners
except with the advice and concurrence of
me Senate, and then only after the pay
ilenl INTO the treasury Of say % per cent
u tneir fortunes, there would be fewer
marriages Of the kind to which Senator
MINIS objects, and the treasury would be
siai hundred dollars year the richer.

On ANY PIatform.
From the Hartford Times Dem.

The fact that Mckinley once said down
in Georgia or somewhere that he would
not be candidate for President on a free
silver platform is of no significance what
ever. He said it because he knew there
was no chance whatever that the republ!-
can party would openly declare for free
silver Mr.. Mckinley Will accept a nonti-
nation on any platform that his party will
adopt, and, If he is nominated, the BUSH
ness men Of the country must look en.Sge-
ly to congress to save them from the dis
aster which Is so gravely threatened by
the free silver movement.

Newspapers that sent correspondents
to Cuba and counted upon a considerable
amount Of self-advertising therefrom
have not made much capital by their en-
terprise. Gen. Weyler fires these ad-
venturous newspaper men out of the is
land so smoothly yet with such velocity
that they lose their breath and are in
capable of making a kick when they
alight upon the land Of the free and the
home Of the brave" 1t Is getting to be
pretty wen understood by ambitious
young men who would like to be war
correspondents that the Spaniards cannot
be trihed with. and that II is much safer
to write war letters in Key West. Tampa
or New York than in Havana 1t is not
pleasant to land in Cuba in the morning,
sup in MORO Castle in the evening and
possibly the next day attend ones own
funeral. There never was a more stale
and Improbable job than trying to work
up newspaper circulation on Cuba libre"
Cubans do not read American newspapers
to any great extent, and do not love
Americans much more than they do Span
iards.

How to Neat Mckinley.
From the Jacksonvule Citizen (Dem.

With the right sort of candidate upon
the right sort of a financial platform, the
democracy can appeal to the country with
confidence. Mckinley will represent finan-
cial disquiet and tariff overturning. The
democratic nominee will represent stabii-
ity and permanence. Upon that issue the
result of a campaign cannot be doubtful

Whnt II Means.

There is no doubt that the agitation Of
the silver question is checking business
and iniuring all kinds of industrial enter
prises. The institutions and capitalists
that have money to loan are refusing 10
loan it except upon a gold basis-be-
cause they know there is a chance that
if they loaned it on any other basis they
would be paid in a deprecated currency.
An illustration Of what is meant is found
in the refusal Of prominent trust COM
psny of New York on Saturday to loan
the state of Alabama money on her war
rants. The credit of Alabama is good.
There is no doubt of her willingness and
ability to pay any amount which she con-
tracts to pay. but financial institutions
and capitalists are not willing to take her
warrants payable in currency. because
when the warrants come due the country
may be on silver basis. and Alabama,
being dominated by silverites. would pay
them in a silver currency. that would have
only about half the value that kind of
currency now has. Alabama may have
to get along without the money she needs,
or she may agree to pay her warrants in
money as good as that she receives for
them.
The silverites try to make out that the
silver agitation does not hurt business,
and that the country wouldn't suffer any
financial troubles if the coinage of silver
were made Independent and unlimited at
the ratio of 16 to l. but such illustrations
of what free silver coinage means as that
furnished by the New York trust company
in the case of Alabama's warrants ought
to be sufficient TO convince them that they
are mistaken. Indeed. it is difficult to I'M
derstand why they contend that we would
have better times if we should degrade the
currency. They can hardly help seeing
that instead of better times we should
have panics. financial disasters and par
alysis of all business and industrial effort

Elmer Gribhle.

Died, of consumption, at Mineral
Point, Elmer, Youngest son of Mrs.
Susanna GribOle; aged Is years, $
months and II days,
1t is sad to think that life with
such bright prospects of pure and no.
BILE manhood should be called away SO
soon. Although for months it had
been realized that his young life was
ebbing, the crisis threw the home in
deepest sorrow and the announcement
that Elmer had passed from us for
ever called forth heartfelt sympathy
from multitudes of companions and
friends.
Elmer was born in the town Of
WaldWick and resided there until
within a few months previous TO his
death. when he with his mother, Sis
tiers and brothers removed to Mineral
Point. He had attended school in
Mineral Point for over a year, but was
compelled to give up his studies when
stricken with that dread disease some
six months before. A loving mother,
three sisters aud three brothers are left
to mourn an irreparable loss He had
kind disposition, ever thoughtful for
those around him and was general
fayorite among his many companions.
Memories of his bright young life will
long dwell with those who knew him.
The funeral services were conducted
bv the Rev. Mr.. Kent, and Elmer was
laid to rest Sunday afternoon by the
side of his brother Joe who had pre-
coded him to the grave only two days
before. Many of his school mates
and friends showed their last tribute
Of respect by presenting wreaths, bou-
quets and crosses of beautiful flowers.
Confusion as to the choice Of 4
blood purifier is unnecessary. There
is but one best Sarsaparilla, and that is
Ayers. This important fact was
recognized at the Worlds Fair, Chi
cago, 1898, being the only blood puri.
lier admitted to be placed on exhibi,
ton.

Joseph Gribble.

Joe Gribble, notice of whose death
appeared in last weeks issue, was born
in the town OF Waldwick, 1871, and
died in Mineral Point, Sept. so, 1896.
The greater part of his life was spent
in his native town, having been in
Mineral Point about five months pre-
vious to his death, Joe had not been
healthy for some time, and had trav-
eled great deal both in the south and
west, hoping to regain his health.
But his hopes were not to be realized.
After having spent the last winter in
Colorado and Wyoming, he returned
in the spring, not receiving any bene-
fits. Since that time he gradually
grew weaker. Tender hearts brooded
over him, kind hands cared for him,
but the fatal termination could not be
prevented. Through his long illness,
he was ever patient and kind, always
thoughtful for those around him. He
was conscious during all his sickness
up to the last. Just before passing
away, Joe called his friends to his bed
side, babe them each good bye, then
closed his eyes in that sleep which
knows no waking in this world.
He was laid to rest in Graceland
cemetery Friday afternoon. The ser
vices were conducted by Rev. Mr.,
Kent, and were held at his home,
where a large number of friends had
assembled to pay their last tribute Of
respect to Joe, and attest their sym
pathies for his loving mother, sisters
and brothers.

iuntimely death Of VIM. J. Speusley
Of New Diggings, who died At the
home of his father in that village ON
Sept. S0th., NJ the age Of ~ yrs. and II
months. Last April young Speusley
came to Mineral Point to study music
with Prof. Anderson, and ut once

friends and being valuable acQUisl-
ton to the band. He played with

About Il week later he complained of

dangerous until a few days before
his death, the unexpected announce
ment OF which was shoc& 10 his

early demise blasts the prospects Of
an honorable and useful life. Since

tribute is furnished:
As members Of the Mineral Point

sorrow at the loss Of OF. ,termcd
band member, William J. Spcnslcy.
The news of his death came to us
as Il shock. He went from our midst

health, and ON September 3Oth he
was called from this earth to his
eternal rest. A Il member Of the
band he soon proved himself to be a
worthy accession and entitled to the
confidence and respect of all with
who he came in contact. As 4 music
ian he had already attained n degree
of proficiency rarely found in one SO
young, and was rapidly paving the
way to fame when, in the very Nigor

His manly virtues, his noble char
actor and integrity Of purpose were

never iiinehcd from what he believed
to be his duty. We deeply sympa-
thi2e in the deep sorrow Of the rcla-
tives who arc left to mourn the loss
