EXPORTS OF SILVER.

Washington, Aug. 3.-During the
twelve months ended June 80, 1896,
the exports of silver exceeded the i'm
ports by $46,726,345. This silver was
exported as merchandise, and its value
was, approximately, 53c an ounce. 1t
was exported because this country is
a large producer of silver, and other
countries were able to buy it here to
advantage, just as they buy wheat
and cotton and sewing machines and
ready-made clothing. When, by the
passage of free coinage act. the
United States government proclaims
TO the world that it is ready to pay
100c an ounce or an unlimited amount
of silver, the millions of ounces that
have gone abroad will come hurrying
back, together with millions of ounces
from other sources, and gold will go
out in exchange or them. In a little
while this country will be loaded up
with silver, and its gold will have
gone abroad. Then it will be silver
nation-but how that will make it any
happier than it is at present is not ex-
actly clear.

After enjoying the soft snap for the

the German paper bites off little &c

When our Bryan was boss in San
Antonio it was not against the Law
to print city ordinances and other Of
fetal notices in the German language.
The tax payers paid in one year for
printing and advertising, according to
the auditors report, the sum of $13-,
200.
While - ,rue that the English
language is the lawful language of
this country, at the same time our
German citizens forming the largest
portion of our property tax payers,
are entitled to some consideration,
more particular when the cost of same
does not exceed the limit laid down by
the state law.

kind reception accorded him every
where in the United States and said

ness of the United States toward
Great Britain, adding that if they
had heard anything to the contrary,
they must remember that not all who
are living in America are Americans.

rlan church the reverend gentleman defines

things, n new assortment of which is found
from Sunday to Sunday, are probably in
tended to boom church attendance. But
many people are moved to reflect that such
methods Of religious cheap advertising may
ultimately prove very costly to the cause of
religion.
Detroit Free Press: New York divine
says that no respectable man or woman will
ride bicycle on Sunday. Better a wheel
than a horse that is entitled to a rest or
street car which works men, may be over
crowded or is not going our way. Better
a spin into the beauties and hcalthfuness
Of nature than Improbable gossip at home
or keeping under the soporihc influence OF
prcsy sermon. And then we see that the
bike" which is not a fit means Of locomo-
tion on the first day of the week, is to be
used as means to help entertain the Chria-
tan endeaYorers at Washington. That Gotham
preacher will do well to wreste with him
self and revise his dictum.
New York Sum a parson may be sound
enough in religious doctrine, but an utterly
mischievous and corrupting person in his po-
litical teachings. Usually, as experience has
proved and as this article particularly shows,
he is a poor political adviser, no matter
how high may be his standing as religious
preacher. People do not 20 to blacksmiths

sermons to other people the parsons VINO

have got very tired OF the sort
of rubbish such preachers produce as po- |
