cumstances-and We must look to the

We may take that section OF the consti-
tuition requiring the election Of an entire
new board Of county commissioner
every two ysars ~ an example. The
new board Of commissioners, without
experience and unacquainted with the
methods Of conducting county business,
enter upon their duties and are neces-
sarily compelled to rely upon the clerk
for information. This, for time, places
the business affairs Of the county in the
hands Of one man and il he 10 20 dis
posed he can manage things in the
interest Of himself and his friends, thus
leading the commissioners into mistakes
they would not make were they posted
themselves. The election of ono new
commissioner every year, leaving two
old members on the board, would rem
sdy this evil where it exists. There are
other laws that could b. changed in the
interest OF economy.

He attended every convention and was a worker, but refused all nominations to office until 1890, when he was elected United States senator from Ohio to sue eeed Henry B. Payne.
 In 1888 Ar. Brice was Ohio's repre- sentative on the Democratic national committee, chairman of the campaign committee i'll the ensuing national cam paign and on the death of William H. Barnum was unanimously elected chair man of the national committee in 1SS9 MT. Brice has been noted throughout life for his active and energetic habits, but he is genial companion and fond family man as well. To his friends he has told this joke on his early experience as lawyer: He won suit before a jus tiee of the peace, and the opposing coun- sel took an appeal to higher court. In a few days MT. Brice's client came to him and said: "Cal, want to pay you what I owe you. As this case is to go into court, I'll have to hire a lawyer now. . This, however, did not put a dampel on his ambition, and he went ahead ard amassed fortune of many millions.

Honest Farmer Jansen's Views.

There are many reasons for thinking that free silver is losing ground in Kan sas, Nebraska and other parts of the west, where it has been strongest and where the people have devoted most time and thought to this question. Earnest study has convinced many farm CTS that the crime of 1873' is myth that 1t does not pay to be dishonest that gold is better than silver; that bi- metallism is impossible, and that there is nothing but wind back of the delusiye promises of silverites. One of these prac- tieal everyday farmers, who both thinks and talks for himself. is Peter Jansen of Nebraska. He is not the only one in his state, for he went to the St. Louis convention as a delegate at large. He was put on the committee on resolu- tions, and here is what he said when he announced his vote:
 "God hates towards, and every hon. est man does the same, and, therefore, on behalf of the Republicans of the great state of Nebraska, shall vote for the resolution which declares for ths gold standard and says just what it means. The time is past for the Repub- lican party to straddle this question. We must meet the issue fairly and squarely like men. I don't see why we should be afraid to take the metal which has been the only measure of value since these United States begun to coin money, while even the country from which I am an exile, half civilized Rus sia, is preparing to. get on to gold basis, and it would not at all become the most enlightened nation on the globe to take step backward and join Mexico, Japan and China. Gentlemen, we shall not gain single electoral vote by re- training to declare for gold standard, but we will lose the respect and credit of the whole world. whose eyes are upon this convention, by avoiding to say just what we mean. The people of Nebraska are anxious and willing to pay their debts, but they are not ready to liqui date them with q 50 cent dollar. trust, gentlemen, the resolution will be carried ''

MAKING PREPARATIONS
For the Convention of the Bap- tist Young Peoples Union
 0t America.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, July l0:-A small army of workmen and decora- tors were put to work in the Exposi- ton Building today preparing it for the convention of the Baptist Young Peoples Union of America which will assemble next week. If the ac- commodations reserved in advance at the hotels and boarding houses are to be taken as t criterion the convention will be by far the lagest in point of attendance the organiza- tion has ever held and far in excess of that held at Baltimore last year. Indiana, Ohio, Illinois. Missouri and Michigan are each expected to send 1000 delegates to the convention and Iowa. Nebraska and the States of the far west will haze q larger repre- sentation than at the Baltimore con vention.

said it with the unmistakable emphasis of man who was in earnest. It was while he was governor of New York and during the cholera scare of 1892. The details of the story it is unnecessary to recount, but it is sufficient to say that, i'll speaking of a certain class of lawbreakers, MT. Flower exclaimed: "I don t care damn for the votes. l will put down those miscreants. The incl dent made for him an international rep utation and we'll illustrated his political principles.
 Roswell Pettibone Flower was born at Theresa, little village i'll Jefferson county, N. Y, i'll 1885. AS a boy he clerked in q country store, worked ill a brickyard and on farm. He taught school for while and then opened q iewelry store in Watertown, N Y. His business thrift and enterprise soon made him successful merchant and i'll 1869 he branehed out in New York city, in which larger field of action he accumu- lated millions by shrewd operations in stocks, bonds and railroad property.
 Not until he had become rich man did he find time to enter politics. In 1881 he was sent to congress and was reelected the next term. In 1882 he was favored as candidate for governor, but the nomination went to Grover Cleveland. In 1889 he was again re- turned to congress by a big majority. Two years later he was elected governor of New fork, his success being due to the confidence which he inspired in busi- ness men of all political faiths. He has been mentioned as candidate for presi ,ienJ before Mir. Flower Is sriii actively engaged in business i'll New York, but spends much of lis time ill his cam ortable home i'll Watertown.

But there has been no early departures and mp to the very last the interest had continued unabated and the attendance undiminished. A galaxy of eminent educators, including President Garfield. of the Ohio State University, and Prof. Albert Small, of the University of Chicago, ad- dressed the immense audience which packed Music Hall this morning for the general session, and men of equal prominence in the educational sphere were included among the speakers at the meetings of the different departments.

bridge Sept C, 1857. He entered Har- yard at the early age of 16, and imme- diately after his graduation i'll 1877 he began the study of law, taking three years course at the Boston University Law school. He soon began to take an active interest in municipal politics, and in 1885 was elected mayor of Cam bridge. During his three terms in this office he gained the respect of the younger element of his party, and when ill 1888 he was nominated for governor. though not elected, he developed such oratorical talents and such an aptitude for generalship that the next year he was again chosen standard bearer. Fiercely and hotly the contest was waged, the tariff being the main issue. MT. Russell made hundreds of speeches. and when the votes were counted it was seen that he was steadily gaining, for, although again defeated, it was by q very narrow margin.
 For a third time he was renominated, and this time was triumphantly elected, being the third Democratic governor of Massachusetts since the war and the youngest man who had ever occupied the gubernatorial chair. Massachusetts Democrats fondly refer to him as the "boy governor. " and he is universally known as Billy Russell. So successful was his first administration that he was renominated in 1891, and he was reelected although every other Demo cratic candidate OH the ticket was de- fpafad

GOLD AND SILVER.
Free Coinage Would Drive Gold Out.

Free Coinage Would Drive Gold Out.
 This country has now over $1 ,250.- 900, 900 i'll metallic money ill nearly equal amounts of gold and silver. Tine free coinage advocates propose that the government should coin all the silver brought to the United States hints at a ratio of 16 to l. As the commercial ratio is over 90 to 1, the result of such free coinage would be to force out of circulation all the gold now i'll use. This always has been and always will be the effect of laws making cheaper money a legal tender for the same amount of value as a better money. There can be no escape from the con clusion that so long as the bullion i'll q silver dollar is worth less than that in a gold dol!.-s the dearer coin will not circulate.
 The real question, therefore, which the American people are called upon to answer is whether they wish to continue the present system, by which over $500, 100000 of silver money is kept at a parity with gold, or to adopt IS to l free coinage law which will give us sil- yer money only. All who want the per manent use of both metals should vote for sound currency based on the gold standard. The men who are shouting for free silver may call themselves "bi- metallists, but they are in reality working for the contraction of our money to the single silver standard.

Pine Bluff AS |, Wholesale
 Center.


 But few people appreciate the fact that Pine Bluff is one of the best wholesale eenters in the State, and fewer still seem to realize the vast amount of that line of business that is transacted here. Almost any of our merchants could tell the private customer of orders filled daily that would seem incredible. of course, for a town of this size. There is no reason indeed why Pine Bluff should not have first class wholesale trade, for the territory is ours and the transportation facilities are of the best. AS an example of what we are doing. but yesterday one drug firm. the Mann-Tankersley Drug Co.,, filled a $500 order for one drug store in Arkansas county. This is by no means an isolated case Large shipments are made continually, which goes to show that Pine, Bluff in spite of the dull times,is still forging to the front.

Before Stewart. Mind Wandered.

Senator Stewart was once as rational on the money question as are most other men. On Feb. 20, 1874. he was. as he is yet, a senator from Nevada, but his mind had not begun to wander on silver and the crime of 1873' He then said l:
 By this process we shall come to specie basis. and when the laboring man receives 8 dollar it will have the purchasing power of a dollar. and he will not be called upon to do what is impossible for him or the producing classes to do-figure upon the exchanges, figure upon the fluctuations, figure upon the gambling in New York. But he will know what his money is worth. Gold is the universal standard of the world. Everybody knows what dollar in gold is worth.

He is q constant stu dent. a finished orator, an erudite law yer, q statesman of large caliber and a passed master in the art of political man. agement.

The Gresham Law Demonstrated.

Because ill all ordinary business mat ters the best quality of goods sold at a certain price invariably drives out an inferior quality sold at the same price, the silverites deny that if under 6 to free coinage law silver forced gold out of use it would show that the silver money was worth less than the gold. If, they ask, a good quality of flour or tea drives out inferior goods, why does not the same rule apply to money?"
 That 1t does not is due to the fact that whereas goods of all kinds are sold on their own merits, cheap kind of money is forced on the public by laws which make 1t legal tender. This is clearly shown i'll the operation of the Sherman silver purchase law, under which legal tender notes representing silver bullion were issued. The effect of that law on the kind of money used in paying GUS toms duties at the principal port of en- try ill the United States is stated as fol- lows by ex-Secretary of the Treasury Charles Foster i'll a recently published letter: The Sherman law alarmed the financial centers as to the disposition of the government to maintain gold pay ments.
 Then, in the financial centers, the quality of OUT money was critically con sidered. While gold, silver and treasury notes are legal tender, yet the fact is. silver is the least valuable. and treasury notes not so valuable as gold.
 Under the alarrling conditions re- ferred to the Gresham law was put to a test under the severest possible condi- tions, and was found to be infallible. Customs dues were paid in silver, in the main, and in treasury notes. Gold pay ments for customs dues practically ceased.
 For the fiscal year 1S90-l the gold re. ceipts at the New York custom house were $l10, 500, 900; fer 189I-2 tue, were $Sl, 600, 900, and for l892-3 only $9, 400, coo. The cheaper money was used instead of gold. the dealer. as it always will he.
