are made very frequently.
Since the warm weather set in the fish
have taken the fly in good earnest and
the travel this way is consequently on the

beginning to arrive.

At Tim pond the trout never took the
fly any better than they do now and
some remarkably good scores are made
every day. The fish are not large but
there are millions of them in the pond
and what they lack in--size is amply made
up by the number and the delicate flavor
of the fish. A few of the latest records

DAYS WHEN N'kINLEY TALKED.
What Ohio Man Said of Silver Four Years
Ago.

Column bus, Ohio June 6.-The search
through the writings and speeches of
Major Mckinley for utterances on the
currency question, besides bringing to
light the pledge he is said to have given
several years ago to the free silver men
of the Farmers Alliance has led to the
republication of one of his speeches.
Four and half months after Mckinley
wrote I am in favor of the use of all
the silver product of the United States
for money as circulating medium; I
would have silver and gold alike, he ad-
dressed the State League Of Republican
clubs at Toledo, o. The Toledo Blade.
rampant Mckinley newspaper printed
the speech in full ON the next day, Feb
ruary 10, 1891.
Mr.. MoKinley's words are given from
this verbatim report. He was speaking
of Mr.. Cleveland and proceeded in this
plain, unmistakable fashion:
"The gentleman who is now SO insist
emit for cheap necessaries of life while in
office and clothed with authority was
unwilling that sugar, an article of prime
necessity in every household, should come
untaxed to the American people, when it
was known 1t was an annual burden up
on them of $50. 600, 600. He stood then as
the unoompromising friend of dear sugar
for the masses.
During allEhis years at the head of the
government he was dishonoring one of
the precious metals-one of our own great
products isorediting silver and enhano-
ing the price of gold. He endeavored
even before his inauguration to office to
stop the coinage Of silver dollars, and
afterward, ana to the end Of his admin
!stration, persistently used his power to
mend. He determined to contract the
circulating medium and demonetize one
of the coins of commerce. limit the vol
ume of money among the people, make
money scarce, and, therefore, dear. He
would have in creased the value of money
and diminished the value OF everything
else. Money the master, everything its
slave. He WAS not thinking of the
poor then. He had left their side.' He
was not standing forth in their defenss;'
cheap coats, cheap labor and..dear money !;
the sponsor and promoter of these profe s.
sing to stand guard over the welfare of
the poor and lowly.
Was there ever more glaring inoonsist-
ency or reckless assumption. The tariff
reformer has at last in his wild eostaoy
over so-called victory .besn betrayed
into an avowal Of his real design. He
believes that prosperity is a blessing to
be promoted and encouraged, and a
shrinkage in the value OF everything but
money is national benefaction. He no
longer c0nceals his love for cheap mer-
chandise, even though it entails the beat
ing down Of the price OF labor and cur
tails the comforts and opportunities of
the masses. -
