SOME SIXTEEN TO ONE LOGIC.

Mexico has free silver. The Mexican
people are very poor. Therefore, we
want free silver.
Wages i'm this country are too low.
Wages are higher here and in all the
gold standard countries than in China,
India and other silver using nations.
Therefore, we want free silver.
We believe in the double standard
under which both metals will be used
to measure values. Free coinage at 16
to l will drive out all our gold and put
our currency on the silver basis. There
fore, we want free silver.
We favoran honest dollar which shall
be just to all the people. The adoption
of the silver standard will enable debt
ors to repudiate one-half of their obliga-
tons. Therefore, we want free silver.
Gold dollars are too scarce and dear to
serve as money of the people. Under
free coinage silver dollar will always
be worth just as much as gold dollar.
Therefore we want free silver.
The government can make so cents
worth of metal worth 100 cents in gold
by stamping it zone dollar" Under
free coinage such a dollar would buy
only half as much goods as gold dol
lar-that is, it would be worth only
half as much. Therefore, we want free
silver.
The prosperity of the American peO-
pie depends on the amount of wealth
produced and the fairness with which
it is distributed among the pro ducers.
Measuring products in silver instead OF
gold would neither create any more
wealth nor distribute it more justly.
Therefore we want free silver.
The country is suffering because there
is not half enough money to do business
with. AS soon as free coinage law is
passed our $500, ,OOO, 900 in gold will all
be withdrawn, and we shall lose all
that amount from circulation. There
fore we want free silver.
There is something wrong with the
country somehow, though we don't
know what it is nor how to cure it.
But everything will come all right if a
lot of cheap money agitators are elected
\ to congress, so now and everlastingly
we want free silver.

FORAGING.
BY S. cREELMAN, CO. A l01, PA.

Not shot was heard, nor the tap of drum
As the porker we took was borrowed;
n o farewell crack from the owners shot gun,
But sigh and look of deep sorrow.
We covered him over with our army blouse
AS the night cold affected his liver;
And we fastened to leave the farmers house,
On the banks of the Tennessee river.
We hustled him lively on that lonely night,
With his bristles for shroud around him.
Wondering if the rest we left in the nest
Would meet his sad fate in the morning.
Little they'll think of the risk they run
When they wake up for corn the morrow,
Aswe meant to take them, every last one.
But We found them to heavy to carry.
We landed him safely in the dead of night.
Not cookoo or whippOrwill singing;
And with mOOnShine alone for signal light,
To the camp we determined to bring him.
Slowly and sadly we laid him down,
Waiting to quarter and scrape him;
And We slept like warriors on the camp ground
Until the hour of one in the morning.
Not prayer was said at the funeral rites,
AS his bones DER the ramparts we lowered
In the dead of night, when the mosquito bites,
And gets in full time with his borer.
We dreamed of the time when soldering was
done,
And the pigs could eat corn unmolested; /;
run,
When-the general had US arrested

Won His Case.

The many friends of G. B. Lennon
will be pleased to hear that he won his
case against the G. & n. w. r. r., for
injuries received while going to Ma
sonic meeting at Marshalltown last
year. He went to sleep and did not
get off the train where he intended to,
and the brakeman stopped the train
west of the city and made him get off.
He was injured in alighting. The case
was warmly contested by first class
lawyers, but at two o'clock a. m, after
three days trial, the jury returned a
verdict of 81 500 damages for Mr.. Len
non. Dan Shea was his attorney from
this city.

TO THE PUBLIC.

EDITORS PUBLIC OPINION:
Under the heading Card in the
DecOrah Republican, notice state
ment made by Norman Willett to the
effect that I should have discovered an
error in the first notice of election in
the matter of bond issue of the Inde-
pendent District of Decorah, and also
that 1 should have stated through the
county that he Norman Willett
should have drawn up the first notice
of election.
There was nothing wrong with the
first notice as drawn up, but the defect
if there was any, was in the posting of
notices, of which 1 had nothing to do,
nor was / consulted in that matter;
nor in any other matter; except as re-
lated by some members of the Board in
the Republican.
The charges, that 1 should have
stated through the county that he
Norman Willett) drew up the first
notice of election and was responsible
for any error connected with the same,
and that 1 first detected the error, if
there was any, is false and made for
political purposes
Yours Truly,

depose and say, that 1 am citizen of

have read the statement made by Mr..
Norman Willett under the heading
Card in the DecOrah Republican, in
which it is stated that E. P. Johnson
is charged by Norman Willett in say
ing that Norman Willett drew up the
first notice of election in the matter of
bond issue of the Independent District
of Decorah, and hence is responsible
for any error connected with the notice
and the election held Hereunder, and
that Johnson detected the error, if
there was any.
also had a conversation with Nor
man Willett in which he named the
time, place and party to whom John
son should have made said statements.
Will say, that was with Johnson that
day named by Willett and heard all
the conversations that took place that
day between johnson and the parties
that Willett named to me, and no such
statements were made by said Johnson
as named by Norman Willett in the
Decorah Republican. The principal
topic in the conversations that day L
was with johnson was that he denied
statements Willett should have made
with reference to agreeing not to be a
candidate and also that Willett should
have stated that Johnson would not
accept a denomination if rendered to
him, which statements johnson stated
he had not made to any one.

Base Ball.

The base ball team played the last
game of the season at Ossian with
Lawler Saturday, Lawler winning by
q score Of 6 to 4. The team has dis
banded and some of the players have
gone home. We wish Decorah might
organize good team next year and
maintain it throughout the season, as a
ball team is a first class advertisement
for town, besides furnishing cOnsid'
erable sport for lovers of the game.

The Post omce Chicken Coop.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Must we, during the coming centuries,
gaze upon that chicken coop on the tower
of the new post office building? l pity you,
doomed to see it hundred times day.
What does it r1eAn-of what use Is 1t?
Surely the architect (alas! that SO few
architects are artists) does not think 1t
adds to the beauty of the tower, that
1t has the remotest congruity to a tower.
Because there is a pyramidal cone finishing
off the Washington monument. does the
architect think he also should have a cone?
Would not an artist say-''That is the very
reason you should not have cone or
chicken COOP The tower is very fine, and
the turrets finish it finely. But that coop.
that cone. SO small. so petty, so incon-
gruous, gives the tower squatty appear
ance. If said architect had long deIiber-
ated how he could mar that whole grand
building, he would have chosen to put on
it's most conspicuous spot just what he
has put Mr.. Secretary Carlisle, DO step in
