JOHN BROWNS FARM.
In the midst of the Adlrondack. res

In the midst of the Adirondack region
is the farm of old John
Brown, Ossawattomfe Brown Over
that old farm, where rest the bones of
the hero of Harper's Ferry. floats the
flag of the Empire state. for it has be-
come state property, having been trans
ferred to it as public park last Jan
uary, the movement for it's purchase
having been inaugurated some years
ago by the late Miss Kate Field, and
the purchase of this farm will preserve
her name longer than anything else
she ever did. The old farm will be-
come a park and be cared for as such
by New York state. In time it will
become a sacred spot to which many
will make pilgrimages.
John Browns was a most remarkab BILE
career. Upon i are some blots, and
yet the man must challenge the adj
miration of all who love liberty and
devotion to a sense of duty. Say what
we may, Brown was cast in the heroic
mold. No insincere man sacrifices his
own life and the lives of his children
for a cause IN which he has not the
greatest faith, the faith of the early
Christian martyrs. His motives if not
his methods will ever meet with ap-
probation.
New York state has done proper
thing in making a park of the old
farm. In that park there should be
erected a monument to the hero of
Harper's Ferry.

A GREAT ANT1-sILyER ARGUMENT.

Perhaps as able an argument against
free silver as was ever written is this
from the Chicago Times-Herald:
People can do without everything
except food, shelter and clothing.
Bread is the first indispensable of
existence.
With the free and unlimited coinage
Of silver the purchasing power of dol
lar will be reduced one-half. The price
of a loaf of bread or a barrel of flour.
therefore, will be doubled.
How does the prospect please?
How the man argues.
Do you hear the man argue?
1 hear the man argue.
Does the man talk?
The man talks.
Why does the man talk?
The man talks to conceal his
thoughts.
Does the man conceal his thoughts?
The man conceals his thoughts.
The man has something in his hand.
What has the man in his hand?
The man has a gold standard in his
hand.
What does the man do with the gold
standard?
The man pounds on his desk with the
gold standard and makes a noise.
Does the man scare anybody?
The man does not scare anybody.
Do we go up?
Up we do go.

1e TO L.

There are very few people in the
wild and woelly west" who do not
know the meaning of 16 to 1. Not SO
in all parts of the country. Some seem
to regard the figures as having a ca
balistic meaning; their answers are
certainly cabalistic.
Director of the Mint Preston was in
terviewed by Washington correspon-
dent the other day. He said that he
was being flooded with communications
from all parts of the country. asking
him for information on the subject of
free coinage. The lack of understand
ing which some of his correspondents
displayed was, he said, appalling.
Some thought that 16 to / meant six
teen silver dollars for every gold dol
lar, and other opinions almost absurd
were entertained by many of the writ
ers.
That any one should get such an
absurd idea into his head that 16 to /
means sixteen silver dollars for every
gold dollar seems impossible; but still
some people do. Not less absurd is the
explanation given in the following ex-
tract from the Pittsburg Gazette:
Delinquent Tax Collector w. R.
Ford was one of the many watching
the Commercial Gazette bulletins from
Chicago yesterday. AS each bulletin
was posted. 16 to 1 watcher beside
him would give vent to his surplus lung
power. Finally Mr. Ford turned to the
stranger with the unharvested hair and
asked:
What does this Is to 1 mean, any
way?'
Don't you know was the incredu-
lous reply.
mo; 1 am all mixed up on the
thing. I wish you would put me right.
Why any - fool understands that;
16 to l means sixteen parts of silver
to one of alloy
THE venerable tax collector groaned,
and as he moved away muttered to
himself, That's the worst 1 have heard
yet
These are good stories, and still not
too good to be true. A better story than
either, though, can be told OF a party
of gentlemen tourists, who were discus
sing the silver question in the Knuts-
ford hotel The discussion of the
financial question had been earnest
but friendly. 4 gentleman from the
east who had been unable to answer
the arguments of his silver friends
closed the discussion with this remark:
Very well, gentlemen, you may sue
coed in getting ten or twelve to one,
but never Is to l." He evidently be-
longed to that class of people referred
to by Director of the Mint Preston.
That old housewives and gossips,
children in arms and Indians not taxed
should not know what 16 to l means is
easily understood, but that American,
citizens who travel and argue in favor
of the single gold standard, and at
tempt to give reasons for the faith that
is in them. should not know what it
means, is truly astonishing; it shows an
ignorance of which they should be
ashamed. 1t all shows the great ne
cessity for a campaign of education
among the people of those sections Of
the country where the discussion Of the
silver question has been tabooed. Many
millions of the people believe in the
gold standard and are blissful in their
belief. but it is the bliss Of ignorance.
