his thoughts to the world as the choicest
position in life, the controlling Of forces
would be far from his liking, and not
being to his liking it would scarcely be
expected that he would meet with that
measure of success that his followers
or his country would expect. Hence it is
in keeping with the demands OF the stu

man up there named--well it doesn't mat.

He is rough and raw and rude and yet he
rules. Any one looking at his picture
would pronounce I'm as .uncouth, uncul-

At one time Nora Sexton was regarded
al one Of the most beautiful girls in the
city. She was of good family but poor.
They came to the North west from Wash

was admired by all and her beauty proved
the means Of her downfall. Very little is

talk about them, desiring not to connect
them with her life at all. She was about

HOW WE ARE ROBBED.

If this country must wait for favorable
opportunity whereby England and other
European countries can be interested in
an International conference in relation to
silver 1t would appear that the present
would be an excellent time to approach
England OH the subject. The first lord
of the treasury, Balfour, in replying re-
Gently to deputation representing agri-
cultural interests, said that it was his
personal conviction that agriculture suf-
fered doubly owing to the present condi-
ton of the currency and that the reduced
prices were largely due to the artificial
appreciation OF gold which followed the
decentralization of silver, and further that
reduced prices in England were due to
the artificial advantage given the pro-
Queer in countries where silver was not
demonetized over the producers in gold
using countries. 7ss
This is what the free silver men have
contendcd in all their arguments and
which has been denied by the advocates
of the gold standard.
The fact is the gold standard men Of
this country do not wish an international
conference on the currency question
They prefer matters to remain as they
are so that the money lenders can reap a
rich harvest at the expense of the Dor
rover, who is represented by the agricul-
tural classes, the artisan and producer
generally. The gold standard men send
up the hypocritical wall that free silver
would ruin the working classes. They
would make 1t appear that they them-
selves are interested, of course, in a cas-
ral way. but that their supreme interest
centers in the worklngman Think of the
rich bankers of our leading cities acting
indifferent}y as regards their own inter
ests in order that the farmer and me-
chanfc be benefited. It is the same
cry that was raised BY the high tariff
