of the American farmer. will he ex-
plain to them why binding twine is
no cheaper now than 1t was before
the passage Of the Wilson law? Is
| it not true that this legislation was
clearly in the interest of European
manufacturers and laborers? On
July s, 1892, Mr.. Bryan voted for a
bill to reduce the duty on lead ore
and lead dross, as imposed by the
Mckinley law. and to discriminate
in favor Of lead ores containing sill
yer. In whose interest was this leg
islation? Clearly not in favor Of the
American miner, and certainly not
beneficial to any American interest.
unless possibly to that Of silver bull
lion. Why is that he uniformly
favored, as member Of congress,
every measure calculated to reduce
the wages of the American working
men? Why did he steadily vote to
remove the tariff from the products
of American farms? 1t is a strange
conception of duty to America that
promotes the prosperity OF the
people Of foreign countries at the
expense OF our own. Is it because
he favors cheap labor and cheap
money both, that he has always so
zealously favored free trade and free
silver? His actions indicate that he
would reduce our wage-earners and
agriculturalists, along with our
money, to the low standard Of Mex
leo and China, regardless of the loss
and degradation to the United
States.
Upon this record he pompously
proclaims that he is willing to have
our workingmen Judge as between
his course and that of his opponents"
Perhaps he forgets that they do in
telligently investigate, read and re-
fleet, and know how to use the bal
lot at the polls next November. II

A Wise Jury,

The eccentic citizen Of Eau Claire
was fined by II discriminating court
for bathing in a costume consisting
Of II long gauze undershirt il reported
to feel that he is a much abused man.
He conducted his own defense, rely
ing principally upon the technical
definition OF the word nudity to JUS
tify himself The city ordinance
prohibits bathing in the state Of
nudity. He quoted the dictionary
definition Of nudity rs meaning no
clothing ut all, arguing that by wear
ing an undershirt he was complying
with the law An unfeeling jury.
however, refused to construe the law
according To Webster's unabridged
and the price of bathing in gauze
undershirt was fixed at $40, a cut rate
being allowed because the offender
was declared to have always been So
generous to the suffering poor
1t is probably Just as we'll that this
new style Of bathing sui, has been
promptly aud firmly discouraged By
the Eau Claire authorities The dis
play of long gauze undershirts is at
no time attractive and il is an eN-
cellent idea TO keep them from the
public gaze. So startling an innoya-
tion il their use for bathing suits
would doubtless not meet with the
favor Of Neah Webster, in spite OF
hi definition of nudity Resides the
Eau claire man might have gone on
experimenting indefinitely. Who
can say THAT TIC would not have dis
carded all garments excepting a pair
OF socks another time had he been
allowed ta take advantage or THE
distionary definition Of nudity?
There are some laws that cannot be
tested by the dictionary,

On January 6 of this year the
treasury gold reserve had sunk to
$6l ,53l ,626, and a bond sale was or
dered. This sale added Sil l,l6G,232 to
the depleted reserve. In addition the
philanthropic bankers have recently
passed the hat around" for the re-
lief OF the destitute and distressed
treasury, and as a result have con-
tributed $26,336,507 additional in
gold. The total of these three
amounts is Sl99,0i4,365, and that
should have been the amount of the
gold reserve last Saturday. On that
date it was $l0S,929,933, a shrinkage
of $90,ll4,432.
In other words, there is now in the
Treasury as the result Of the net pro-
ceeds of $IO000O,O0o of per cent
thirty-year bonds just S2t,05l,s00.
For the sake Of carrying this insig-
nificant amount Of gold for eight
months the taxpayers of this coun-
try will pay $l200o0,0o0 in the next
thirty years.
This is probably tho worst bargain
that any civilized treasury depart
ment has ever made.-rhe World,

Endless laundering by the Exponent of
Democratic Government - The Surplus
That Never Came Results of "Tarifi
Eo- Revenue Only"
In 1898 Secretary Carlisle gave his
first estimate Of the 1895 fiscal year, an
ticipating a surplus OF revenue over eE'
penditure of SO, 1870, $50. A year later,
in 1894 he revised this estimate and
predicted deficiency of $50, 600, 900.
Both prognostieations We're wrong, for
the deficit reached $42, sos, 223. In 1898
he was $40, 600, 900 out in his financial
ideas, and in 1894, only six months be-
fore the close Of the 1895 fiscal year, he
was $22, sos, 1928 wrong.
In 1894 Secretary Carlisle gave us his
first prophecy rs TO the current fiscal
year, ending June 30, 1896 Then he
looked for comfortable surplus" of
S2S, S14, 92C. But again he was away
off, and five months ago changed his fig
ures TO q deficiency Of ST. 900, 900, a
slight difference of nearly $40, 600, 600
in these two estimates. The indications
are that the actual excess Of expenditures
over revenue for the 1896 fiscal year
ending June 30 will be $32, 900, 600.
This will be difference of $50, 1914, 920
from his estimate in 1894. and differ
ence of S15, 600, 600 from his guess of
five months ago
For the fiscal year 1897 this free trade
tinancier expects another comfortable
surplus, = though hardly so 'comforta-
BILE rs his first expectations for 1896,
as he puts it at only SO COS, 92i. Let us

Free Public Library.


The state board of library commission
ers are sending out circular letters urging
the towns without tree public library to
take measures to secure the state aid OF
one hundred dollars, to which they are en-
titled under No. 81 OF the Acts OF 1894, an
act to promote the establishment OF free
public Libraries.
In order to take advantage of this act,
these articles should be inserted in the
warning for the coming town meeting:
To see II the town will elect board of Ii
brary trustees and instruct such board to
make an application to the state board Of
library commissioners under Act No. 81,
Acts OF 1894; to see what sum, If any, the
town will appropriate for the maintenance
of free public library.
At the town meeting in March, 1895,
over forty towns, representing every coun-
ty in the state, took favorable action upon
this matter, made the required appropri-
alton, and nearly all have received through
the commissioners the books provided by
the state.
This circular is intended to direct the
attention of citizens to the act referred to,
that those interested in such matters may
be prepared to take advantage OF its pro-
visions whenever the general interest in
the esta blishment Of free public library
seems to warrant such action.
1t should be understood that the amount
appropriated by the state is intended to
serve only as stimulus to the formation
of free public libraries, and will accom-
plish very little II not supplemented by
from other sources, and the
Jealous interest and attention of those
who, like Ben Franklin, propose to rem
der the benefit from books more common"
The commissioners therefore desire to
have the matter Of establishing free pub
lie library in town brought before the cit
liens by informal or public meetings that
they may be stimulated to secure funds
Tor the purpose by entertainments and So
,ial gatherings, and by soliciting sub
scriptions of money and donations OF
books from persons who are interested in
;he intellectual welfare or material pros
oerity of the town.
