Elizabeth team is undoubtedly the strong

With the exception of Hopkins, who is
still unwell. the Elizabeths viii put In
their strongest team against Orange, and
they should come pretty near winning
the game. Their defensive work in the
with Yale was simply phenomenal
The sons of Old Eli could do little or
nothing against their stonewall line.
while Elizabeth went around Yale's ends
and through her line like paper for big
gains. The, outcome of these games wifi
watched with keen interest. A large
crowd win undoubtedly be in attendance
at both.

LABOR AND THE ISSUE

The backbone of the country is sup
porting Mr.. Bryan. The vote Of the
workingman will be fearlessly and con-
fidently given for the triumph of the free
coinage of silver. Neither intimidation
nor coercion will affect him, though the
temptations and pressure will in many
cases be strong. The workingman has
carefully and intelligently studied the
great issue of this campaign, and is con-
vinced that the demonstration of sill
yer over twenty-three years ago was
calamity as we'll as a crime. Were not
the issue so clearly defined, the identi-
fication of Mr. Mckinley with such
notorious oppressor of labor as Mark
Hanna, or more truthfully speaking,
the merging of McKinley's identity in
Mark Hanna, would have been a suffi-
cient reason for the pronounced antag-
onism of the workingman. Mark Han
mas record is not forgotten as the de-
stroyer of the Seamen's Union, the ruth
less oppressor in the Ohio coal fields, and
as consistent and bitter enemy of or
ganized labor. The present power of
the Republican and McKinley's boss is
significant enough; the laboring man
has no desire to see Hanna installed
as the virtual president of the United
States.
Only one man Of any consequence, no
longer leader, in the labor world has
declared in favor of the election of Mr..
Mckinley, Terence v. Powderly.
Against Mr.. Powderly, who does not
pretend to have any following, the tes-
timony of John Mcbride, ex-president
of the American Federation of Labor.
looms up large and distinct Mr.. Nc
Bride says:
mot one single bona fide labor paper
in the United States is supporting Nc
Kinley and the st. Louis platform. Eve
ry labor organization of any conse-
quence in the country has declared for
the free coinage of silver, and voiced
their opposition to law by injunction.
When the moneyed men of the
land all rush to the support of Nc
Kirley and the gold standard, it is time
for labor leaders, labor papers and Ia
boring men to get on the other side, be-
cause experience has demonstrated that
there is nothing in common between
the men who make wealth and the men
who take wealth."
While the latter part of Mr.. McBride's
statement may be taken exception to,
since arrayment of class against class
is always to be deprecated, there can
be no mistaking the temper of the Ia
boring man in this campaign. No
amount of tariff talk from the advance
agent of prosperity" will succeed in
confounding the issue for him. The
wage-earner realizes as fully as Sena-
tor Sherman that "a new tariff law is
not practicable" Altered conditions he
does demand, and he is confident that
Mr. Bryan's policy willy supply them.

Ihey are intimidating and trying to
force protection upon beet raisers, aesur-

that tariff is the paramount question in
this campaign. They dwell at great
length about low priced sheep and cheap
Wool,but they haven't much to say about
the price of hogs, horses, cattle, wheat

another ghost of gigantic propensi-

that coin will only be worth fifty-three
cents, and then for clincher they take
up the Mexican dollar and claim it won't
pass for more than said amount in Mex

signed to influence the unwary. and I
more especially call your attention to
the latter, as l believe the people want

AN APT ILLUSTRATION

1t is urged in many quarters and on
both sides of the Atlantic that to open
the American mints to the free coinage
of silver. at the ratio of 16 in weight of
silver to 1 in weight of gold, and to en-
act that every dollar, whether of gold
or silver, should have the same debt
paying power except where the debtor
has specifically contracted otherwise,
would be an act of bad faith toward
all creditors. The accusation is we'll put by
an American writer in the current num-
Der of the Fortnightly, who, however,
believes that the day Of the silver agi-
tation is done. He credits a western
banker with the following illustration
of what he regards as the equities of
the situation: "One of our leading grain
shippers called at the bank to talk free
silver and negotiate a new loan. 1t 4
bought from you. for delivery in May.
10000 bushels of No. 2 hard wheat, and
before May came around your corn ex-
change passed a rule allowing mem
bers to deliver rejected" wheat on that
contract. would you do so? Certainly
not he replied. 'Why?' You bought a
certain kind of wheat-wheat fit for GER
tain purpose True he quiSSly an
swered, but in the markets of the world,
beyond control of our rules, you would
have something you could not put in
the place of your No. 2 wheat-the wheat
you bought and paid for Now con-
tinued, yesterday you paid off loan of
$40 900; that money came originally from
England. 1t was converted into current
funds without loss; the transaction is
a fair one all around, an honest trade
between two honest men. Today you
ask new loan of $4,000 for three years.
Suppose give It to you. When that loan
comes due and remit to England what
/ have received from you, send home
the equivalent Of $65o0 as return OF
what is now $4,000. Do you call that an
honest transaction between two honest
men? What is the difference between re-
jected wheat and rejected money, from
the worlds point of view, no matter
how many new rules your section OF
the worlds business may have enacted
in the meantime?' For few moments
the grain shipper remained lost IN
thought; then he frankly exclaimed. IT
would be darned steal of cool $1,000;
that's the business description Id give
of such a deal. You've put some new
wheels in my head on the silver ques-
ton, Mr.. President. You can make
that new loan payable in gold II you
like"

Los Angeles street toward the public
market, when suddenly one of his horses
disappeared from view, having fallen
into an open and unguarded sewer hole.
There was no help at hand, but after
some difficulty Walker succeeded in
freeing his other horse from the harness
and then proceeded to attempt to extri-

the hole. He found that nothing could be

Logical Deductions

Editor Herald The vital argument for
silver is easily understood and is that of
supply and demand, and was very ably
and comprehensvely illustrated by Mr..
Waldron the other evening in his speech
by balances in which property is placed
on one side and money on the other,
wherein if you take from either side the
opposite goes down and the side talk
en- from goes up, but there are side ques-
tions not so easily answered.
One is: why is our silver, now de-
monetized, taken as readily as gold in
payment?" Mr.. Harvey and Mr.. Horr,
in the Great Debate" agree it is token
money" redeemable in gold; the United
States treasurer says it is not. Now, if
1t is not, it must be the government
stamp which gives it it's present accept
able quality.
Another: IF the government stamp
gives it it's present value in the dollar,
is not that value fictitious with silver at
53 cents, and therefore now dishonest;
and. on the contrary, would it not be
more honest when remonetized, for
then, according to the logic of the gold
standard, the price of silver would go
up, to enrich the silver kings?'" To
make this plain: If by some accident all
the gold and silver would be melted,
would not tho holders of silver be short
A cents on the dollar whereas those of
Soio a. ColllPdIdtlNely no loss, Wnen
both offered it for sale as bullion? But
II silver is remonetized and the price
goes up to nearly the price of gold. as
they say it will. would not the holders of
silver be less the losers when melted?
This being the case, why is remonetized
silver not more honest than demonet-
lied? AS l understand things, it is.
Another: How will more money get
into the hands of the people? What will
put it into circulation when the volume
is increased by reconciliation? Prop
erty and labor will go up with silver;
hence it will flow into the, hands Of the
people by the increased prices and
wages. and silver bullion owners being
able to use it more advantageously in
this country than elsewhere would bring
it here to invest in all ways to make it
profitable; hence it would stimulate
business of all kinds to have free COIN
age.
If those answers to these oft repeated
questions are wrong, will Mr.. Utley
please put me, as well as many others.
on the right track? We must not deal
in trick argument" for it will not
wear: what we want is solid facts. The
people are terribly in earnest and will
not be tricked. There is too much at
stake for even the dullest to be fooled"
Everybody should know just what he Is
