SILVER TORNADO SWEEPING OHIO
John F. Funk, of Hagerstown, Md,
has just received letter from ]. II.
Thomas, the millionaire agricultural
implement manufacturer of Springfield,
Ohio, who has made study and CAL
vass of the political situation in Ohio.
He says
Bryan will get the $1,000 populist
votes, the 1000 prohibition votes, and
an immense number of republican
votes, and it is hard to see how Nc
Kinley can overcome this combination.
Bryan will gain votes every day be-
tween this and tho election. There is
absolutely no hope for the farmer aud
the manufacturers and the working
people except through the unlimited
coinage of silver. 1t is the only thing
which can give us money enough to do
prosperous business on. 1t is the
" way our farmers can be assured

all the silver presented at the mints,
and it will Iise in price at once to its
value of 30 per ounce.
'Our farmers out here are taking
hold of this view, and in some locali-
ties it is very hard to find Mckinley
man at all. Whole neighborhoods of
republicans have come out for Bryan,
and such being the case, cannot see how he
can be defeated in this State or in the country.

President Charles Dole is not the
first great college president or great
educator who has been outspoken in
praise of Paine's celery compound.
The detailed and convincing testi-
monial of President Cook, of the Ma
tional Teachers association, is fresh
in the public mind
One of the foremost educators in
America, Principal L. L. Camp, of the
Dwight school, New Haven, has called
Paine's celery compound the greatest
invigorator in existence.
Such men as State Treasurer CoIvin,
of New York, Mr.. CarIisle's private
secretary, Mayor McShane. of Mon
treal, Rev. Fl. Ouellet, Commodore
Howell, ex-minlster to Austria, John
NJ. Francis, Edmund Russell and a
host of others whose character and
learning are recognized by the world,
have publicly stated that when they
were sick it was Paine's celery COM
pound that made them we'll.
Thousands of equally responsible,
though perhaps less widely known,
men and women, whose word in their
own cities and towns is as good as the
best in the land, have testified to the
merits Of this, the greatest of all rene
dies.

tjmony, always of the highest charac-

President Dole was born in 1S43 He
graduated from Norwich University in
the class of 1862 and became professor
of political science in the university.
In 1895 he was unanimously elected

State Hon. George Nichols. He has
held, as the public good required,
nearly all the public Offices in the gift
of his townsmen. In a recent letter,
he says:

The use of Paine's celery compound

which will be distributed broadcast
throughout the United States and Eu-
rope, the benefit to be derived there
from is incalculable.
The articles on our mineral resourc-
es are ably gotten up, especially
so is his description Of the unrivaled
wealth of Camp Floyd district, which
reads as follows:
UTAH'S NEW GOLD FIELDS.
Certainly the world has never seen
a mining camp where so much ore
with value on so little development has
been exposed. Not day passes but
that one or more new mines show suffi-
cient ore for milling or shipping pur
poses. The extent of the mineral zone
is astonishing the most enthusiastic
of Utah people. The demand for prop
erty within the gold belt already
known to exist (the extent of which is
eight by fifteen miles) is 50 great that
thousands of dollars are being paid
transfer of bonds as we'll as the out
right purchase of properties.
Enough has already been written
about the early history of Mercur or
as it was formerly known in Utah as
Camp Floyd, during its years of pros
perity as a silver mining camp. The
gold bearing tract of ground is I'M
doubtedly one of the largest known to
the world. The deposit is somewhat
of a geological puzzle, and while mines
are and have been actually shipping
from the surface, sufficient work has
been done in scores of places to show
that the values continue to great
depths.
Up to this time there is not a single
group of claims upon which systematic
DEVELOPMENT work has been done that
has not given values, many of which
have been very high. There is no uues-
ton but that the entire district is on
the mineral zone, and pay values will
be obtained in almost every part of it,
Utah people are noted for their con-
sentative qualities. Now they have
awakened to the realization of lost op-
portunities, and are crowding into this
district, purchasing mines and rapidly
pushing development work. Mercur
has been producing gold ore for less
than two years. to any extent, and it
is safe to say that 5000 tons are being
produced daily. which equals $50 900,
with new strikes being made in all
parts of the district 1t is safe to es-
innate the output Of this camp alone
for 1895 at S5,O00,00 at least
The eyes of the entire mining world
are turned towards Utah because of
its recent excitement from the. discoV-
cry of extensive mineral deposits. It
is generally conceded that with the
advent of statehood there would come
