THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

Journal Miner: So far as The Jour nal-Miner is concerned it is as firm a believer in silver coinage as it ever was, but is it to be expected that it will repudiate the party whose prin- ciples it has advocated for years, be- cause forsooth, it differs on one single question? Can a man who is honest In his political convictions desert his party because he differs with it on a single issue, even though that ques- t1on be as important a one as that of finance? Let the silver agitation go on; let Democracy advocate the cause of their candidate to their hearts con- tent, but will they kindly permit Re- publicans to have opinions of their own without being subjected to ma lignant abuse?
 Tempe News: When you find an al- legged silver man, or Populist who believes in nominating another ticket instead of Bryan, it is safe to con- clude that Hanna knows his address. Tucson Citizen: Inasmuch as John James Ingalls, has announced himself as a candidate for United States sen ator from Kansas, we take advantage of this early opportunity to wish him fair weather and a successful voyage MT. Ingalls, lacks many of the essen tial qualities of political perfection; he is as full of small faults as a Swiss cheese is of small holes, but he is pa triotic, able, honest and fearless in the cause of right as he understands it, and he knows that the honor oi this government must be upheld by the enforcement of Republican princi- pies. This brief outline explains why we favor Ingalls, for senator as against the present incumbent, old MT Whiskers.

ANOTHER TRILBY.
Does Not Sing Ben Bolt, but Talks
 Politics.

CHICAGO, July 23.- Chicago has a real live Trilby in the person of Martha Hardy, 16-year-old Ravenswood girl, who is said to do feats of Svengali's s hypnotic efforts. She says the source of most of her mysterious talents is the spirit of her sister.
 Martha Hardy in the natural state has childish voice of no power or sweetness, but the neighbors say that when she is under control" the purity and range of her soprano are marvel ous. She is not a politician, but she delivers political orations which she says are inspired by the shade of ex- Mayor Carter Harrison. She is mere school girl, but she writes poetry when in a trance and declares that Eugene Field is the celestial bard who inspires her.

Bank depositors, investors in build

 mutual benefit associations and per-
 sons who carry life insurance, will be
 steadily flooded from this time for ward during the present campaignwith
 leaflets and pamphlets and other publi- cations designed to show that their investments will be decreased 50 per cent at one fell swoop if our hints should be reopened to the free coinage of silver and gold at the ratio of 16 to l. The managers of all these various kinds of institutions are in hearty sympathy with the single gold stand ard theory, and they will furnish lists of their patrons to the literary bureau maintained by the money power in or der that all the falsehoods and falla- cies which can be invented in opposi- tion to free coinage, and in favor of the maintenance of the single gold standard, may be brought to bear on the minds of these investors. It is tC | be hoped that some way will be found to get the truth regarding bimetallisn i before these important classes of vot- CTS, and this is a matter that should re. ceive early attention.

AN OBJECT LESSON.

The general managers of one of the largest firms of tea importers of this country, W. H.. Sebastian, has just re- turned from an extended trip through Mexico. The lessons obtained by him caused complete change in his views as to financial matters, and his state ment is well worth the study of gold ites who use Mexico as favorite hor- rible example of the perniciousness of free coinage. He says:
 ''When I went out on this trip was full-fedged goldbug, but have re- turned free silver man. I found Mexico one of the most prosperous countries in the world Old adobes that have stood for 100 years and over are being torn down and in their place are being erected magnificent business | blocks. They are doing little if any trade with Europe for the reason that they are manufacturing everything they need. The only thing you can sell them is teas, mating and Japan silks, and in short time they will be manufacturing the two latter articles.
 Eastern capital is being invested in Mexico with good results. I found several eastern capitalists who also went to Mexico as goldbugs, but changed their opinion. as to free sil- yer. Why, free silver I consider one of the best protection arguments that can be brought out. If free silver has done so much for Mexico, which it un- doubtedly has, it is good enough fol this country. I could relate numer- ous incidents of Mexico's progress dur ing the past four years that would sur. prise the American people. In ont city alone during the past four years there have been fifteen factories bull and they are doubling their dividends every year. The Mexican Central is making more money than any rail road in the United States of it's size''

WEALTH FOR SILVER.
The Richest Man in Wisconsin Causes
 Surprise.

KENOSHA, Wis, July 23.-A great surprise has been sprung on the po- litical circles of this section by the an nouncement that z. G. Simmons, by long odds the wealthiest man in south ern Wisconsin, has declared himself as unqualifedly in favor of the elec- tion of Bryan and Sewall and has en- dorsed the entire Chicago platform. MT. Simmons is president of the North western Wire Mattress company and of the Northwestern Telegraph com pany, whose wires now form, under lease, great portion of the nothwest- ern system of the Western Union Tele- graph company, in stocks. He has al ways been an unwavering adherent of the Republican party and an advocate of high protection. He says now that the time has gone by for high tariffs and that the advocacy of the money question, the people who made the platform in Chicago acted in the true interests of the people. His brother
 Ezra, and his son, z. G. Simmons Jr. have also joined the silver party.
 MT. Simmons is quite we'll known in Colorado railroad circles. He was the contractor for the construction of the Manitou & Pike's Peak railway, build ing the road and taking his pay in stock and bonds. He is frequent wis itor to Colorado, and has other inter- ests here besides those in Manitou.

NONE BUT AYERS AT THE

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibft at the Worlds Fair. Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. It is here on it's merits"

FREE COINAGE.

The Nevada Tribune asks the ques- tion:
 What would be the result if sil- yer president and congress were as sured? and answers it as follows:
 Let us see. First, silver would go up to above $1.20 an ounce as it did immediately after the passage of the Sherman act. That would lower the rate of exchange with silver standard countries one-half. In other words, tine Mexican dollar would be worth 90 cents as against 57 cents now, and the Indian rupees would be worth 40 cents as against 20 cents now.
 That would mean that the European wheat buyer who changes his gold sovereign into rupees to buy the wheat of India would only be returned twelve rupees for his sovereign instead of twenty-five what he now receives. For fifty years the price of wheat in rupees has been about two and one half rupees per bushel. The huctua- tion in the price of silver has not af fected the rupee price of wheat. When a gold sovereign can be exchanged for twenty-five rupees, it will buy in India ten bushels of wheat. So the wheat costs really in our money about fifty cents a bushel and this is the price which we must meet when we sell our wheat. But under free coinage, with the price of silver $1.2929, a gold sov- ereign will only exchange for twelve and one half rupees. which would only buy in India five bushels of wheat. Hence the India price of wheat would be, reckoned in our money, one dollar a bushel
 Then the situation would be this: The European wheat buyer could only get five bushels of wheat for sover- eign, ,and we, knowing the fact, would not have to sell more than five bush els of wheat for a sovereign. This would mean dollar wheat for us. With cotton, the same conditions would ob- tain. Cotton is in the same boat with wheat. The number of rupees sov- ereign will buy determines the price oi cotton. Cotton would go to fifteen cents a pound. or seven cents higher than it is now. This would make 2 difference of $34 a bale. Last year we produced 9,S92,76 bales. Thus the prosperity of the cotton planters would be increased ito the extent of S3SS44, 353.944 in one year.
 Another thing before we turn tt wheat. Last year we exported 6,630, 272 bales of cotton to Europe. If WI had sold them at fifteen cents pc, pound the balance of trade in 189' would have been $301, ,997,54S in ou favor, instead of s75,56S,2OO.
 We produce yearly about 5OO,OOO,OO' bushels of wheat. If it sold for dol

A person is prematurely old when badness occurs before the forty-ffth year. Use Halls Hair Remover to keep the scalp healthy and prevent badness.
 There Is no scarcity of preparations for the hair, but unquestionably the one which ranks highest in point of merit is Ayers Hair Vigor. It is made from the choicest materials and on strictly scientific principles. It does not soil nor become rancid by exposure to the air, and is as perfect a substi- ute for the oil supplied by nature, in youth and health, as modern chem istry can produce. It softens and stim- ulates the hair and scalp, revives and strengthens weak and disordered tis- sues, restores the original color to faded and gray hair, prevents the for nation of dandruff, cures humors which destroy the hair-roots, renders the skin healthy, moist, and active, and the hair soft, silky, lustrous, and abundant. Gray hair, one of the most noticeable indications of age, may be postponed for many years by the daily and faithful use of this admirable prep aration. Give it a trial. Gentlemen as we'll as ladies prefer Ayers Hair Vigor to any other dressing and consid- CT their toilet incomplete without it.
