AN OBJECT LESSON In FREE SILVER.

The World-Herald of Omaha, one of
the very few papers in the country
which has become so depraved as to
support free silver, was called down re-
Gently in way which would have
convinced any company composed of
broad-minded men of the fallacy offree
silver. 1t was this way: The cashier
of the First National Bank of Nevada
is man who thoroughly understands
the financial situation, and knows how
terrible would be the result of the silver
forces obtaining control of the govern
ment. In order to show how other
countries have succeeded with free sill
yer, this cashier placed number of
Mexican dollars in the window of the
bank, where every body could see
them. A placard stated the fact that
anyone wanting dollar for 55 cents
could get one of the Mexican dollars
for that sum, and further stated that
the Mexican dollar had more silver in
it than the dollar of this country, but
that the silver dollar of Mexico did not
have the gold behind it. The simple
little exhibition in that window had a
wonderful effect, and when the citizens
wanted to shut up free silver man
they simply led him over in front of
the bank. A few days after the Next
can dollars were put on exhibition the
travelling solicitor of the Omaha World
Herald dropped into Nevada to obtain
a few subscribers and incidentally to
tell the people of the benefits to be de-
prived from free silver. A citizen of
that place led the solicitor around in
front of the bank, and pointing to the
Mexican dollars said: "That is the
kind of money you want to give us, is
it?" "Why, that money is all right"
said the agent. II will take itv' "All
right" said the citizen, "send me the
World-Herald for 35 cents worth.
Here is Mexican dollar worth SIS
cents. Now, give me IS cents in
change, if you dare" The World
Herald man wouldn't take the bluff,
and he took the Mexican dollar and
handed over IS cents in change, but it
is needless to say that he didn't So
licit any more subscriptions in that
place. He left town on the next train.
The people of Des Moines have the
same opportunity before them. There
is branch Office of the Omaha World
Herald in this city, which is located at
sol Walnut street. The office is in
charge of Mr.. Truesdale, citizen of
Des Moines. Go to him today with
Mexican silver dollar and see how the
World-Herald stands on the money it
wants to give to the United States.
He might accept one or two as bluff,
but let bank send down to Mexico
and get stock of Mexican dollars for
you and see Truesdale climb tree
