which he demands the sum named.

Along the Sewer.

Salina, Dec. 29.-The weather on the
Sewer is warm and delightful and the
roads are dry and dusty. Six years
ago. We had just such Christmas
weather.
Farmers are feeling somewhat con-
cerned over the prospect of next year
water supply. No snow has fallen in
the mountains as yet. Timber men
have been hindered but very little in
their operations in the canyons thus
far this winter. Salina people, as a
rule. are enjoying the holidays. Nearly
everybody seems to have plenty to eat
and wear and something for the poor
and visiting friends.
Christmas day was the children S
day. Two entertainments were given,
one in the Coop hall and the other in
the meeting house. This was done in
order to give room and so that none
would be sighted. 1t is safe to say
that every child in Salina was visited
By Santa Claus and received gifts
either large or small.
On Christmas eve a musical concert
was given under the auspices of the
Latter-day Saints choir and Salina
male chorus. The success of the af-
fair was due to the able leadership
of our choir leader and music teacher,
j. H. Hood. The patronage the people
prevail as the numbers were given
showed that Professor Hoods labors
are bearing good fruit in our little
town. We hope to soon see the day in
Salina when dancing will begin to
wane and other and more elevating
amusements take its place. The way
dances have been carried on the last
few years in our smaller cities and
towns, is causing them to become a
reproach to us and unless a decided
reform sets in, and that very soon,
the more respectable class of people
will have to seek amusement else
where.

IT IS A AFAILACY.
Evils Of Free Silver Coinage Arc
Vividly Illustrated.

From the illustrated American.
Under the Bland and Sherman laws
the government has bought enough sill
yer from the mine owners to coin into
nearly $500. 100000. But in spite of all
these purchases the market price of sill
YER has steadily been falling.
Now it takes about thirty ounces OF
silver to buy an ounce of gold.
But the silver advocates demand that
our government shall allow every own
er of silver to bring it to the mint and
have it made into dollars at the rate of
16 ounces of silver to | of gold.
In other words, they demand that the
government shall in this one commod-
ity give the lie to the markets, and shall
try to compel the people to take 16
ounces of silver as equivalent to ounce
of gold, although every ounce of gold is
worth thirty ounces of silver. Here is
the dishonesty.
1t Is as dishonest to make us pay the
mine owners double the value of their
silver as it would be to make us pay the
baker double the market value of bread.
Government cannot establish a value.
No government ever did Every effort
to force q wished-for value upon the
people in the face of Il different market
value has been fruitless, and has ended
in financial panic.
