GOLD Is STABLE.
That Is Why 1t Is the Best STANDARD
to Use.

Remember, what you want Is q sta
BILE currency 1t does not matter wheth-
er it bears such relation to another
kind of currency or not. What yor
want is something that is stable. Well
now, so far as the transactions of civ
ilized nations are concerned gold has
always proved to be the most stable.
There will be times when there will
be a scarcity Of gold, comparatively
but you must remember always in
making the comparison that the golt
that exists in this world, as we'll as the
silver, Is not the product Of one year
1T is the product of the whole world
from the very time when silver and
gold We're first dug out of the bowels
Of the earth until now. That is 9
stock we have got on hand. and we
add to it year by year.
1t may possibly be that in some years
the additions are not great, but that In
others the additions are greater, bu,
the history of the world shows that
while the production of silver and
gold. both of them, in past times used
to be very nearly uniform that is not
the fact now.
The fact is the world is 100 years
older than it was 100 years ago today
and it knows more. and it has discov-
cred processes of producing silver AT
the price that would make the old
Spaniard aghast at the thought o it.
Now let us see what effect that has
had. l can't remember all these fig
ures. but l cam, remember some OF
them.
In the five years before 1870 there
was S64S, 100000 of gold dug out of tn,
earth in 1890 to 1895 it had increased
to $7o3, 100000, about $l.0O0,000. Thai
is an increase the world could stand
without disturbance.
How was it about silver for the
five years from 1865 to 1870? Coinage
value, l am giving you. 1t was $27SO0O.-
900. How much do you suppose it was
from 1890 to 1885? $l,OOi 900, ,0OO-foui
times as much. And do you suppose
that under such increase of produc-
ton the level of silver could remain
stable?
"hy we know it did not. And yet
during that period of time the United
States has bought and used $625.O00.-
900 Of silver. taken it out of the mar
ket. Nevertheless it has been going
down. Tom Reed at Portland.

COMPANY NOT SATISFIED.
Turnpike People Believe the City Is
Not Living Up tO1ts Promise.

After the receipt of Mayor Bailey's
notification that the city proposed to
repair West Market street, the Turn
pike company agreed to give the city
until October ! to carry out it's prom
Use and if by that time it had not full
filled its agreement, the Turnpike conf
pany would, it stated, renew it's opera
tions.
The city in fulfllment of its promise
has had gang of men working on the
road. but their work is not and has not
been satisfactory to the Turnpike peo-
pie. The street commissioners men
have merely shoveled out the cutters
and leveled off few humps and have
not as yet made any move towards
making permanent repairs.
In view of this the Turnpike COM
pany is threatening In go on the road
again and finish the macadamiZing be-
gan at the l.eggett's creek bridge
President II. T.. Paine to a Tribune re-
porter said. yesterday. that the COM
pany has not fully determined just
what steps it will take. but it Is most
likely that it will refuse to approve Of
the work the city is doing and go on
and do ii itself.

Addresses We're given by Attorney NJ.
w. Lowry. j. NJ. Walker and Hon. A.
7. Connell. The latter was suffering
from painful attack of throat trouble
and spoke only briefly. Mr.. Lowry
branched out into an interesting re-
view of the political situation. He said
that this campaign is not second even
10 that of 1861 when Lincoln was the
candidate and the country was threat
ened and there was danger that 1t
would be rent in twain. Today the in
tegrity, honesty, and credit of the ma
tion is threatened.
The Republican party Is advocating
nothing new. 1t has always stood for
prosperity and sound money. 1t is the
Democratic party that has changed.
but Mr.. Lowry thinks they are honest
in their belief. only being misguided.
The reason we have wages in excess of
other countries is because the Republic
can party with its protective laws has
fostered manufacture and trade. 1t Is
not more money we need now, but u
greater circulation of that which we
have. and which cannot he brought
about except by starting our mills,
mines and factories going.
Any person who goes to Washington
can find $325, 900 900 in silver stacked up
in the treasury vaults now. The gov
ernment has silver to burn. as il We're.
and there is more money per capita to-
day in the United States than in any
other country of the world except
France. What We want Is II restoru-
tion of confidence so that the men who
have money will use il. We have the
same money now we had between 1850
and 1892 and then the land was blossom
ing with prosperity.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
" all Street Review.

New York, Oct. l.-Stocks were less
active today, the sales amounting to
1916 shares against 2l9, 900 shares yes
terday. The falling off in business was
partly due to the excitement in the
wheat market, the bull movement In
the cereal having attracted general at
tention. A feature of the days opera
tions was the absorption of the low
priced issues at advancing figures,
Pacific Mail, Atchinson. Missouri
Pacific, Reading, Southern Railway
preferred selling at the best figures for
some time past.
In the closing dealings the market
was influenced to a slight extent by
Sugars erratic course. and part of this
advance was lost. Speculation left off
