The SILVER RATIO. An act of Con-
gress passed in 1884 directed that the
silver in silver dollar should weigh
sixteen times as much as the gold in
gold dollar. At that time one grain of
gold was worth sixteen grains of silver.
Such was the ''ratio" of silver to gold
at that time in the markets of the
world Since 1884, owing to the de-
creased cost of mining silver and its
largely increased production, its price
has fallen so that the ratio in 1894 was
80. to 1. In 1894 32k grains of silver
were required to buy one grain of gold.
In other words, the silver miners found
mining profitable when they were SELL
ing silver at half its former price. In
1895 the average ratio was 31.6 to 1.

THE SONS OF DELAWARE.
BY MEDFORD H. CAHOON.


BY MEDFORD H. CAHOON.
(Air John Browns Body
There's little State called Delaware, whose sons
have wandered far;
They have preached unto the heather, they have
spilled their blood i'm war;
They have hustled, busted, ruStled and caught
on to fortunes car
Her sons are marching on
Glory, Glory Hallelujah'
Her sons are marching on.
They whistle as they march along, these sons of
Delaware,
The best is good enough for them,-;hey only
want what's fair
They aim straight at some object, and don't fire
into the air,
AS they go marching on.
Glory, Glory Hallelnjah,
Her sons are marching on
They are governors and Judges, business men
and lawyers too;
! They attend to their own bu iness, for they all
have work to do;
| And remembering they are nestli gS of the hen
with the feathers blue,
Her sons go marching on
Glory, Glory Hallelujah.
Her sons are marching on.
Then fill a bumper high to item, wherever they
may be,
And wish them every happiness which human
| beings see!
Oh may tl,y stand for honor truth and peace
and liberty
While they go marching on!
Glory. Glory Hal.elujah,
Her sons are marching on.

Yes, Mr.. Bayard, free speech is

Five things observe with care:
OF whom you speak,
To whom you speak,
And how, and when and where.

STATE DAIRY ASSOCIATION
Will Meet in This City Next Week President Ross Will Preside-An 1m-
 portant Meeting.

The State Dairy association will meet in the Commercial club rooms in this city next week. MT. Isaac Ross, of Lee county, president of the association, will preside. MT. Ross is one of the oldest and most successful dairy men in the state and possesses, doubtless, the best herd of thoroughbred Jersey cattle in the south. Having devoted years to the dairy business the public may expect something interesting from him on this subject on the occasion of the meeting of the association.
 A city like Birmingham can appreciate the necessity of securing wholesome milk and butter, not only as luxury, bus as guarantee against disease.
 For several months MT. J. D. Gresham, the sanitary officer, has been making per sonal Investigations Of the various dairies supplying the city and his reports have been anything but satisfactory In fact were all he has learned given to the pub lie in strict parlance one could hardly Hook a COW in the facei' Only yesterday he made the discovery that milk from diseased cows (not deceased exactly) was being sold, and he even threatened to present the offender to the grand jury 1T he did not desist instanter.
 The meeting of the State Dairy assocla- ton will be an important meeting TOT Birmingham and its proceedings will be carefully watched by our citizens.
