GOLD AND SILVER.

A pound of feathers contains 16
ounces, or 1000 grains; a pound of gold
contains 12 ounces, or 5,760 grains.
In the calendar year 1894 3,O93,972
silver dollars were struck at the mints;
IN the fiscal year 1895, ending June &C.,
3,956,011 dollars were struck.
A woman at Walkerville, Mont, who
keeps hens, gathered four dollars
worth of gold in the craws of three
chickens she had just killed. Now she
follows her hens to discover the spot
where they find gold.
A California gold prospector has
written a letter addressed to Mayor
Pratt, of st. Paul, Mimi, in which he
advances the claim that gold can be 10.
Gated in eastern Minnesota.
Production of gold has enormously
increased, particularly in California
and Utah. Gold ore yielding as low as
three dollars per ton can now be
worked by the new cyanide process,
whereas silver ore must show $24 a ton
before it can be worked

pepew's Observations.

Some over-zealous friends of Gov
ernor Morton are finding fault with
Mr.. Chauncey NJ. Depew because of his
statement that in his recent journey
across the continent he found an al
most practically unanimous sentiment
in favor of the nomination of Gov. Nc
Kinley for the Presidency. These
critics seem to imagine that it is Mr..
Depews duty as an avowed friend of
Governor Morton to suit his facts to
the necessities of the case, and to shat
his eyes to the existing conditions of
public opinion, wherever they conflict
with the ambition of our executive or
the plans of his managers.
The fact is. that as truthful man
Mr.. Depew could not make any other
report than that which he has given to
the public. He came in contact with
all classes of people, and he could not
help discovering the pervasiveness of
the Mckinley sentiment. 1t was obvi-
GUS everywhere that the Republican
masses desire McKinley's nomination.
In most of the Western States, and in
some of the Eastern States, hardly any
other candidate is at this time serious
ly spoken of among Republicans. In
Iowa, of course, where there is local
feeling in favor of Senator Allison,
and in New England, which is predis-
posed toward Mr.. Reed, no serious at
tempt has been made to secure the
election of delegates favorable to Nc
Kinley. So far the sentiment in favor
of Mr.. Reed and of Senator Allison is
essentially neighborhood sentiment.
That for Mckinley is a national feel
ing. Undoubtedly, Speaker Reed de-
serves well at the hands of his party.
He has fine qualities of leadership,
and, as the standard bearer of his party
in the coming national contest, would
unquestionably receive the hearty sup
port of the great body of Republican
voters. The same thing is true of SEN
ator Allison, who is a man of conspicu-
GUS ability and of approved public
service. He would fill the Presidential
office with dignity and capacity. But
neither of these gentlemen, in the
opinion of the people, represents sc
admirably the spirit and policies of the
Republican party as Governor McKin.
ley. In peculiar sense, the latter
has voiced in his career the aims and
the principles which this party has
professed to maintain during the whole
Marietta daily leader. (Marietta, Ohio) 1895-1906, 1896-05-12

period of its history. He has been
identified, largely and intimately,
with the economic legislation which SO
directly concerns the welfare of the
people; he stands in the popular
thought for that tariff policy which
has contributed so enormously to the
national prosperity, and the modifica-
ton of which has brought upon us
such dire financial and industrial dis
asters. All these considerations are
now operating in his favor. He may
not be nominated at st. Louis two
months hence, but that he would be If
the country could be polled to-day, is
unquestionable.
Mr. Depew, in his observations dur
ing his recent tour, 'discerned clearly
the facts here stated AS an honest
man, he has not concealed them.
While he would be glad to see the
standard of the party committed to the
hands of Governor Morton, he is un-
able to see why he should shut his
eyes to the truth, and undertake, by
minimizing the force of existing facts,
to create an impression which is un-
warranted. He will be none the less
loyal to our executive because of his
conclusion that his nomination is i'm
possible. We suspect that if some of
the party leaders who have been so
active and earnest in promoting the
candidacy of Governor Morton cared
to express their honest convictions
their statements would agree substan-
TALLY with those which they so sharp
ly criticise in Mr.. Depew.- Leslie's
Weekly.

Muskingum Club.

The Muskingum Club met at c. T.
Stacy's in Rainbow, May 9th. Miss
Jessie Wood recited "a Negro Class
Meeting" and Mrs. Pape read an arti-
Gle advising that boys be taught to do
such ordinary house work as sweeping,
washing dishes, making beds, and also
plain cooking in order that they may
be ready to assist in emergencies. This
article elected quite little commenda-
tion, particularly from the ladies. The
boys did not seem favorablv impressed.
Arthur Stacy answered the Program
Query by short description of the
various functions of the skin. Mr..
Paul Stacy and Miss Helen Osborne
rendered some excellent violin music.
Miss Julia Dyar read an essay deplor-
ing the fact that SO many harmless
popular legends and fancies were be-
ing scattered by scientific inquiry. P.
L. Stowe reported that the Steamer
Sonoma offered to take the Club and
the friends on an excursion either up
or down the Ohio any reasonable dis
tance, on the June meeting day, for
25 cents each. He was directed to ac-
cept this offer for the Club, with the
proviso that only the Club and invited
guests should go beyond Marietta.
Jos. Dyar brought up the question of
new court house and Jail, which is
agitating the minds of some citizens.
c. P, Dyar, w. d. Devol, G. A. Wood,
S. S. Stowe and A. McNeal spoke ia
vorably of the project, providing it
could be put into such shape that a
liberal but definitely limited sum of
money could be voted on for the pur-
pose, and value received for it. 1t is
generally believed that steal occurs
in most of such Jobs, and unless the
county is we'll satisfied that the whole
affair will be managed with ability
and integrity, it cannot be carried.
But convince the county that it will
be so managed and it may go through.

EVER since Butcher Weyler assumed
command of the Spanish cause in Cuba
his government has been at pains to
assert that his reputation for blood
thirstiness is undeserved and that in
truth he is white winged angel of
peace. The Butcher" cannot sustain
the role, however, and his threat to re-
sign if the filibusters captured on the
Competitor are not executed without
civil trial is positive evidence of his
real character.

Fishing in the Blue Muskingum.

The fishing in the Muskingum this
spring proves the worthlessness of all
our fish laws so far as they relate to
this river. Some kinds of fish that
were plentiful few years ago are
scarce now, showing that they very
likely passed down and out of the Mus
kingum, while other kinds that were
very scarce are plentiful. For instance
the pike that were scarcely seen in
years, are very plentiful this year, and
they were not put in the river by the
com mission either. We believe it is
all right to plant new varieties of fish
in the river and that part of the work
of the Fish Commission is to be COM
mended. But as it is the habit for fish
to come and go why not let everybody
catch all they can while they are here?
These pike haye probably come here
from the Ohio and may return there
within the year. Then why prevent
our people from taking as many of
them as possible while they are here?
Years ago when we had no fish protec-
tion laws the river was full of fish and
to every body it. was a free pitch in.
The fish would likely be just as plenti-
full next year if the same freedom as to
fishing existed now.-Morgan Demo-

AS was predicted in yesterdays is
sue of the Daily News, Conductor Will
liam Brown and Engineer w. II. John
son, were reinstated into the good
graces of the Il. & O. S. w. Il r., at
Cincinnati yesterday afternoon by Gem
eral superintendent !. G.. Rawn, and
both gentlemen. as well as their many
friends, are glad to hear of their rein
statement.
Both men will probably resume their
regular runs as soon as they are ready
to report. Mr.. Brown will again re-
sumo his position as conductor, while
Mr.. johnson will remain on the police
force until his engine, No. 10, which
will go into the shops in few days
for necessary repairs, is again ready
for duty. r -.--s
Nothing so far has been done In the
way of reinstating the men now sus-
pended but it is hoped that Mr.. Rawn
will also take up the cases of the other
men soon and also reinstate them
Chillicothe News.
The parties reinstated were those
suspended in the RoXabell disaster
some months ago The matter of those
suspended for the Schooley accident is
under consideration. The orders to
which the men belonged hgve been
urging the officials to take action.
