A Campaign Forerunaer.

The Fresno Republican sings thus
They're coming, oh they're coming l
can feel them in the air. The campaign
days are coming on with all their cum
bering power. And candidates will ram
about as they have eyer done, and they
will buttonhole me oft when | have
forgot my gun. | soon will smell their
picked breath and smoke their bad ci-
gars, the while they talk me half to
death-ob, that's patriots one and all,
and will know they lie. The love that
holds them in its thrall is love of public
pie. They're coming. oh they're com
ing! The election days are near, wi
orators and patriots and candidates and
beer. And must get my Faber out
and whet it to point, and prove the
other party's brain is badly out OF joint
for if there be an added pate, as people
must agree, it is carried by ihe brindle
cuss that don't agree with me. The fel-
low who would hold from parties not IN '
own, is spawned, gangrened, knock
kneed and lacks u dorsal tone. 1t is
not only that his head no single thought
could keep; he's much suspected, SO lls
said of stealing Bilkin's sheep. All thi-
and more III have to prove, as parrot
true and tried, for campaign days are
| coming on; the chasm's yawning wide
! oh, let me fly to Senegal, or cen to
Cevion HE; exile me past the Chinese
wall. or haplpss let me die, For | am
weary as | write my thoughts in sad
ness hape--eleciion days are coming
! and there is no escape.

Bis Opinion.

A prominent financial authority in
England, William Henry Grenfeil, in
reply to an inquiry from the World,
announces his belief that the adoption
OF bimetallism by the United States
would have a favorable influence Of
England and other European countries.
His statement will be of much interest
to Americans at the present time. Mr..
Grenf-li says II believe the ire and
unlimited coinage of silver at ratio Of
16 to | in the United States would
greatly increse the chances of an inter
national agreement for the adoption OF
bimetallism.' The author, however.
does not believe that it is within practi-
cal politics in England. He states that
English bimetallists are very much
divided on the question of ratio, and
that it would be impossible to get a
proposal adopting any ratio through the
House of Commons. In conclusion the
writer says:
"The great difficulty is the ratio and
il the nints OF the United States were
opened to silver there would be rise
in the price of silver which would
greatly help to overcome this difficulty.
| feel certain that England will never
adopt ratio Of anything like Is TO as
long AS the market ratio is in the neigh
borhood Of 80 10 |. but believe If the
price OF silver was once raised. England
would make great efforts to prevent its
falling again. Ii binetalism were once
started in the United States ! believe
it would give an enormous impetus to
the bimetallic agitation throughout
Europe to get the different countries to
join in bimetallic agreement with the
United States"
The above view seems to be in direct
opposition to the claims made by Mr..
Whitney and those set forth in the
minority report OF the committee on
platform of the Democratic convention
wherein it was held that the adoption OF
free coinage pl INK by the Democratic
party would impede all progress being
made in the direction OF securing inter
national agreement.

SenatorPeffer says II do not believe
the Populist National convention will or
should endorse the nomination OF
Bryan. believe canidate should be
regularly nominated at st Louis and the
fusion effected in the several States.
That is to say where Bryan is the
strongest Populists should turn in and
help secure his election, and where the
Populists are the strongest the Demo-

Many of these have 'passed over the
river" but among the great acts OF their
lives is the share they took in organic
ing the Library Association, and among
the monuments built to their memories
none will be more lasting or more
cherished by posterity than the Library
and all that it means.
Many of these are today following diff
Grant vocations in different parts OF the
country, and have warm spots in
their hearts for the Library. They
never met a person from Wadsworth but
what they ask about the Library and
its progress.
And there are quite number of the
charter members in this community to-
day. They and their children are en-
joying the fruits of that good deed OF
seventeen years ago and they continue
to work for the success OF the institution.
The officers of the Southern Pacific
Company have always shown warm
interest in the Library and they have
always taken pride in showing it to
distinguished Fasteners as token Of
the culture and refinement of the rail
road employees and the citizens OF this
community.
There never was man, woman or
child, who paid dues to the Association,
who could not have many fold value re-
ceived if he or she wanted it so.
The Library should be kept up to tile
best Of our ability for our own sakes
and for the sakes of fani les and
children. There is no other place in
town where the hours may be 50 pleas
antly and proftably spent and there is
no other place in town where we would
sooner see our coming men and women
congregating. Like many other things
we would miss it much if we did not
have it, and having it we should apprc-
ate and support ii willingly and gladly.

 Dollars.

Kansas City, Aug. 21.-The stock yards branch of the American National bank, which is located on the second floor of the live stock exchange. was robbed of $2000 in cash by a quick and nervy thief this morning.

Having a letter to deliver on the floor below, he went down stairs moment leaving the door of the bank room open. A commission firm oc- cupies a room directly opposite, and one of the commission men sat facing the open door. He indistinctly remembers some one entering the banking room, but paid no attention to him. When Cashier Boswell returned he found the drawer open, jimmy having been used, the bills all taken and marks of nails in the shoes of the thief where he jumped on the counter in making his escape. There were hundreds of men on the floor below when the robbery occurred but the hall ways on the second floor were practically deserted.

Nebraska ..aold Democrats. !"

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 21.-The gold demo- crats of Nebraska named a delegation to the Indianapolis convention last night. A conference of the state central commit tee and leading democrats to the number of nearly 100 was held, presided over by Chairman Euclid Martin. Many speeches were made, most of which favored a third ticket and the naming of state delegation to the national convention. It was the consensus of opinion that a third ticket in Nebraska is not only necessary to aid in the defeat of Bryan, but also to preserve the regular party organization in this state after the issues of the pres ent campaign shall have been decided at the polls. Every delegate was pledged to vote for a gold standard candidate for president but no preference was given as between aYailable men.

NORTH CAROLINA SUNDAY LAW.
Suit Brought Against the Southern Railway
 to Test It.

Raleigh, N. C., Aug. A.-W. H. Denver of Asheville brings suit against the Southern railway to test the legality of hauling express on Sundays in North Carolina. The suit is based upon sec ton of the code which provides that no railway company shall permit any cars to be run on Sunday save such as are to transport the United States mails, either with or without passengers, and such as are exclusively for passengers and those exclusively for live stock, fruits, vegetables and perishable freights. Sunday is construed to be between sun rise and sunset.
 The Southern railway will handle no express save perishable articles on Sun days until this question is settled. The penalty Is $500 for each train in each county through which the railway runs. It is said that under the literal construc- tion of the act dead bodies cannot be shipped on that day.
