people were going to take them az

good thing which had been 80 often
promised. The gold standard friend
ship for free silver was the friendship
of the wolf for the lamb. The bill de-
monetizing silver was passed without
the knowledge of the greatest leaders
in congress, and Mr.. Geer knew II.
Blaine, Allison, Garfield and Teller
admitted that 100000 men were
engaged in the mining industry.
1t was charged that it would
make some mine owners rich, but IL
would not rob the rest Of the people.
Intrinsic value did not make money,
The English parliament changed the
weight of the sovereign seven times
hut its value remained the same.
The American congress changed the
wei Tht Of the gold eagle but its value
remained the same. Our small silver
was lighter than the dollar itself.
It's value was the same. Mr.. Geer
had charged the silyerites with a
tinge Of anarchy. The charge of

Most with his redhag paper was sur
porting Mckinley. The Socialist
party in California was opposed to
the silver party and supports the
gold standard. [Great applause.l
The admission of Mr.. Geer,in spite
of all his beautiful little school boy
speeches, was that prices were falling
and labor was unemployed. Ridicule
was always resorted to when argu-
ments failed. The goldites could not
hold back the uprising tides of prog
ress. New occasions teach new duties.
II was nonsense to tell the American
people that there was nothing wrong
in this country
Cleveland boasted that he followed
in the line Of policy adopted by his
Republican predecessor. Both old
Republican and Democratic leaders
were agreed on the gold standard.
The gold standard would crush down
labor until IL could not defend itself
in future IL it was defeated this time.
Let us vote in defense of liberty and
humanity, and in November we will
win great victory.

MR.. GEER's SPEECH.
II. r.. Geer spoke one hour in de-
fense of the gold standard. People
needed more education on this ques-
tiOn than they thought. The financial
question did not properly belong to
this campaign. The silver question
was not the issue in 1892. The ques-
tlon had no business in this campaign.
The question Of that campaign was
the repeal of the Mckinley law. The
people wanted cheaper goods. They
had never been so cheap nor so hard
70 pay for. The bill dropping the
silver dollar from the coinage laws
was considered for years before 1t
passed. He read the order of Jelfer-
son suspending coinage OF silver TO
prevent the exporting Of the dollar.
He challenged any man who was
using silver in 1912 who was prevented
from using II by the 'crlme of 1873. a"
That "crlme" could not hurt any man
who had none of those dollars. He
hoped TO hold the Republicans In line.
II he did Oregon would go 10000 ma
jorlty for Mckinley. He lert his farm
work tn speak here. When In Salem
he heard crowds Of ldlers on the
streets talking 10 to1 Those crowds
were everywhere, but he could not get
one Of them to take his place with the
threshing crew on the farm,
"We want more money and our
rights" was a popular cry at present.
He lampooned NJ. V. Rork, formerly
OF Salem. The change we got in 1892
was all the change anyone had seen
since then. The silver craze was a
Popullst trap and 1t had swallowed
the silver party and Popullst. The
people who had money TO circulate
were not the poor people. The poor
people in no country had any money
TO circulate. No man was ever forced
to invest his money under pressure of
Of law. The Populist party was 10
blame for hard times. We could not
make anything by going against the
man OF wealth and money. The
Populists simply said we want more
money. But they wanted no intrinsic
value. Simply stamp II, was all they
wanted. Such men ought TO go TO a
kindergarten.
Our country was in debt thirty-two
billion dollars. They wanted as much
money as there was debt. AS we'll
keep 800. hearses In the community
because there were 500 people and all
were liable TO die.
You don't need as much money as
you have business TO do. We must
shange the conditions that govern the
use in money and then wewould cir
culate IL
Mr. Geer spent a great deal OF time
rldiculing the Populists. He declared
there was no relation between the
amount OF money and the price OF
wheat, He read from Benton aud
Jefferson TO show that there were hard
times. Wheat varied In price before
the war and since independent OF the
price OF silver lie was surprised so
many OF his old-timefriends were going

sucue4a ll Plant Growing.

There is a wonderful amount of truth in the following statements: Some persons have knack of making all kinds of plants grow in the most unfavorable circumstances. 1 think this is partly owing to magnetic at traction existing between such persons and their plants. The plants seem to know they are loved, that they arc household treasures, that every new leaf and flower is as welcome as the new words and expanding thoughts Of a baby to its mother. Apparently un- conscious of this, they do their utmost, and in places least adapted for success ful house culture of plants, we often find stands or individuals equal to the best greenhouse specimens"

THE POINT WELL TAKEN.
How a Tucson Judge Evened Things
 Up With Two Attorneys.

Down in Tucson, in the Borrachto club, they ltell little tale anent the district court at that point.
 There are two lawyers, distinguished barristers both, good friends enough personally, who are ever fighting (wlth words) in the court room. A short time agone the usual windy dispute commenced in a case where every thing depended on shade of meaning in a statute. Each insisted that his reading was correct.
 Finally one, regardless of the proper decorum of a court room, Iblurted out at his antagonist, You're liar!" The other, equally at fever heat, answered snappily, You're damn liar!'
 Then the spectators waited for the explosion His honor, the court, had been somewhat wearied at the discus sion and had sunk back into his easy chair. Slowly rising from its midst, he eyed the already penitenlt attorneys and remarked: Prom what the court can see of this case, it is of tn opinion that the point of attorneys for both sides is we'll taken Proceed with the caSp''

Elephant Nurses.

The women of Siam intrust their children to the care of elephant nurses, and it is said the trust is never be- trayed. The elephant, not being sus- ceptible to the charms of the sumter ing policeman nor the social claims of his friends and relations, is consequent ly able to devote it's entire attention to its charge. The babies play about the huge feet of the elephants, who are very careful never to hurt the little creatures. And if danger threatens the sagacious animal curls the child gently up in it's trunk and swings it up out of harms way upon its own back.

FORGED SIGNATURES.
The Te.egrams Sent Concerning the
 Land Lease Biu

Tucson Star: Governor Hughes, ill answer ito question concerning the rumor that he sent letters and tele- grams ito congressman urging the pass age of the Arizona land lease bill over the presidents veto, replied:
 q did not write, sign or authorize any telegram or letter to any senator cons ngressman or any one else in Wash ington or anywhere concerning the Arizona land lease bill, much Jess re- quest or suggest the defeat of the pres idenlt's veto of that measure. I was requested ito do SO, but absolutely re- fused. If lit is true as reported that telegrams or letters referring to the land lease bill with my name signed to them were received by congress men, senators or others in Washing ton or elsewhere, I pronounce them wilful and malicious forgeries which have been gotten up with a view to mislead and deceive those to whom they were sent and with the ultimate purpose of being presentd to mislead him as to my attitude toward him. But my enemies and accusers ase capa- ble of this kind of business"
