For your Protection.-Catarrh "Cureso OF

For your Protection Catarrh ''Cures" or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
lodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow Of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should bequick to allay
Inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

those who coerce, is a Eold piece OF by
pocracy and a monumental piece OF gall
It is Mark Hanna all over.

Chairman Babcock of She republican,
congressional committee in u recent eli
fusion insists shat the recent rise IN
heat while silver has declined, knocks
out the silver mems argument that the
price OF wheat and the price of the
ounce OF silver do not go together. But
IN this rise in the price Of wheat it rath
err proves than disproves the fact. The
contention has leen that the wheat of
India competed with our American
wheat IL the Liverpool markets; that
the Liverpool merchant could in normal
times buy IN India at any time during
the last twenty.three years a bushel Of
wheat for about an ounce Of silver.
Wh,n the ounce of silver was worth
81 % in gold in 1873 this meant that the
bushei of wheat was worth about that
in gold. But although the India wheat
farmer has always been willing to take
an ounce Of silver for a bushel OF wheat,
the ounce OF silver has fallen in value,
owing to it's characterization and disuse
and consequently, as the gold value of
the ounce OF silver defined the gold val
ne Of the bushel Of wheat, the price de-
clined and the American farmer has
been compelled to receive the gold
equivalent Of the ounce of silver for his
bushel Of wheat. This meant a gradual
declln, III the prlce from about 81. . or
Sl.3O "a bushel IN 1873 TO 60 cents or 65
cents in 1893.
The real cause therefore, of the de-
| cline in the gold value of our wheat was
largely the competition OF India. This
competition has recently been done
away with, by reason Of the failure of
the wheat crop in India and hence the
price If American wheat, deprived Of
this competition, has steadily advanced.
Should, however, the normal crops be
restored in India, the old effect Of the
fall in silver will be felt in wheat and the
price f the American wheat in gold
will again be measured by the gold
price of the ounce of silver if the pres
ent financial system is maintained.

SILVER PLATFORM.

The National Silver party in conven-

l.. The paramount issue at this time
in the United States is inalsputably the
money question. 1t is between the gold
standard, the gold bonds and bank cur
reucy on one side, and the bimetallic
STANDARD, no bonds and government cur
rency on the other. On this issue 70 de.
clare ourselves to be in favor Of a dis,
tinctively American system. We are
unalterably opposed to the single gold
standard and demand immediate return
to the constitutional standard OF gold
and silver by restoration by this govern
ment, Independently Of any foreign pow
or, OF the unrestricted coinage OF both
gold and silver into standard money a

lankton Press, 81: Low prices for
farm products is in the interest OF the
foreign Individuals who have such "A
control Of the financial policy OF the
United States. Those countries buy
farm products they do not sell them 20
other Lations-consequeutly it is money
in their pockets to keep prices low SO
they can buy a great deal with a little
money. Under the gold standard real
money is bound TO be scarce because
there is not near one half enough gold
money to supply the arlou countries
that are struggling to get gold-the
United States included And of course
as long as all nations are struggling to
geL goIu, gold Will be scarce and high
and all other things that gold will pur-
chase will remain cheap and our indus
tries will be depressed and idleness will
be the rule for our working classes. All
these evils are the logical result OF the
gold standard.

Even Mark Hanna can tie made to
vince by the force Of pubic opinion, but
only when he knows he has more to gain
10y yielding THAI by bull-dozing. The
latest instance of his policy dodge IN
campaign management is to ease up on
the coercion Of employees and manu-
facturerere. or course, his apparent re-
p]entance is entirely hypocritlcal and
purely for effect, but 1t Is enough to
show guilt and at the same time ac-
knowledge that the charge OF coercion
was we'll founded. The constraint and
pressure which republican managers
were bringing to bear upon manufactur-
ers and employees had become so glazing
that gold republicans themselves who
possessed any spirit OF Independence had
become Disguised and threatened to bolt
the party themselves on this score alone.
1t vas reaction against dictation 10
politics and the subverting OF the privi-
lege Of a free ballot that smoked Mr..
Hanna out. No charge OF his enemies
which he now affects to be the impelling
cause of his denial or any shame fol
what he has done, brings Mr.. Hanna gu,
at this time in an affected appeal fol
help to secure a free and untrammeled
ballot, but the fear that he has carried
it too far and that the more honorable
OF his own party may desert him. This
loss OF his own votes 10 all that impelll
Mr.. Hanna to crawfish, but the foxy
"labor crusher' will continue to coerct
and intimidate just as ~strenuously il no

dues public and private, and We favor
such Legislation as Will prevent further
decentralization Of any kind Of legal ten
der money by private contract. We
hold the power to control and regulate
paper currency is inseparable from the
power to coin money, and hence that al
currency intended to circulate as money
should be issued and its volume con
trolled 10y the general government only,
and 1t should be legal tender. We are
unalterably opposed to the issue by the
United States Of interest bearing bonds
in time Of peace, ard we denounce as a
blunder worse than a crime the present
treasury policy, concurrcd IN by the re-
publican house, OF plung,ng the country
N debt Y hundreds of millions in a vain
atlenpt TO maintain the gold standard
by borrowing god, and We demand the
payment Of all ON obligations OF the
United States as provided 10y existing
laws in either gold or silver coin at the
option of the government and not at the
option Of the creditors.
,. That over and above all other ques-
tions Of policy, we are III favor Of restor-
ing to the people OF the United States
the time hOnored money OF the constitu-
tion-gold and silver, not one but both
the money Of Washington, Hamilton,
---~", t1~".~.' s~~"~~- anu L'u-
coin, to the end that the American peo-
pie may receive honest pay for honest
product, That the American debtor may
pay his just obligations in an honest
standard and not in a standard that has
appreciated 100 per cent above all the
great staples Of the country, and to the
end further that prese:t silver standard
countries may be deprived OF the unjust
advantage they now enjoy in the differ
ence in exchange between gold and sill
ver-an advantage which tariff legisla-
ton alone cannot overcome.
We therefore confidently appeal to the
people Of the United States to leave in
abey ance for the moment all other ques,
tions, however important and even mo
m%eutous they may appear-to sunder II
need be all former party ties and ntfillla'
tiCns, and unite in = supreme effort to
free themselves and their children from
the domination OF the money power-a
power more destructive than any which
