The Tyranny Of the Desk

We will suppose that your occupa-
tion Is sedentary-thaty you are chain
ed, so to speak to the desk in some
counting house, or perhaps TO the
loom In some vast mill where you are
compelled to labor from morning till
night. Sunday is your only day of
relaxation. You return home every
evening wearied mentally and bodily.
Your health and strength begin to
fail. What will most effectually re-
cuperate your vital energy? The
weight OF evidence points to no other
conclusion than that Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is your safest, NEST
reliable sheet anchor. Use it persist
emily, and your system will soon re-
gain its pristine vigor. Every func-
tion will receive healthful impulse
There is no remedy TO equal the Bit
tiers fer nervousness and want OF
sleep, dyspepsia, constipation and bill
ionsness. 1t averts and remedies all
forms of malarial disease, and is a
preventive of rheumatism and neural
gia.

AS reply to the oft-repeated
charge of the opposition that Mr..
Bryan was more or less sympathi-
ger with lawlessness and anarchy, it
is but right to submit to his fellow
citizens his utterances upon that very
question of lawlessness, as spoken by
him from his seat in congress, that
they may see for themselves just
where this young man Bryan stands
upon that most vital question. They
are words that should be eonned
with care by every lover of his coun-
try and patriotic supporter of free
government. be he banker or toiler.
Speaking upon Mr.. Oates's resolu-
ton for the appointment of com
mittee to investigate the employment
of Pinkerton detectives by the Car
negie- Prick company, limited, at
their works at Homestead, Mr.. Bry-
an said:
Il only desire to say, MFR. Speaker,
that this resolution ought to pass.
1t is simply to investigate whether
there has been any violation of the
federal constitution or laws by the
action of these men. / believe in law
and order, but believe that the law
and order should be maintained by
the lawful authorities. and not by
private armies. Governments organ
lied to protect life and property.
These functions should not be trans
ferred to private individuals and
hired detectives until we are ready
to acknowledge government failure.
at is not fair to compel corpora
tions to protect their property in
this way, nor is it right that the
safety and even life of the citizen
shall be imperiled by a private and
irresponsible soldiery. Let public
order be preserved by public author
ity.'

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River, in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists. A
regular stage line has been establish
ed from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the
Atlantic & Pacific Railroad, making
the trip from Flagstaff to the most
imposing part of the Canon in less
than IL hours. The stage fare for the
round trip is only $4,000, and meals
and comfortable lodgings are provid-
ed throughout the trip at reasona-
BILE price. The view of the Grand
Canon afforded at the terminus of the
stage route is the most stupendous
panorama known in nature. There
is also trail at this point leading
down the Canon wall, more than 5000
feet vertically, to the river below.
The descent of the trail is a grander
experience than climbing the Alps,
for in the bottom of this terrific and
sublime chasm are hundreds of noun
tains greater than any Of the Alpine
range.

Grand Canon, illustrated by many
full-page photographs, from especial
engravings and furnishing all needful
information, may be obtained free

The Claims Made by Friends of Silver.

a falling market means prostration,
panic, paralysis; the downward trend
of prices is the path to industrial per-
dition; the upward slope of rising val
ues is the plain road back to energy
and life, the way out of Darkest
America into the light of prosperity.
This giant evil, falling prices, is
caused by contraction of the currency,
or by increase of business and chang
ing conditions of production unbal-
anced by due expansion of the cur
rency. The salvation of rising prices
can be secured by increasing the vol
ume of the currency. Gold has caused
or permitted falling market, and
carried the nation far on the road to-
Hades. For thirty years we have had
falling prices with consequent oppres-
sion of debtors, depression Of business,
and industrial disaster. The train of
events has been running to destruc-
ton. Free silver will reverse the lev
er, inaugurate a rising market, afford
just relief from overweighted debt,
and stimulate commerce, manufac-
lures and agriculture to new activity.
The first silver dollar coined will buy
as much as dollar does now. Silver
will rise to 81. 20 an ounce; no one will
sell it for less than that sum minus
the expense Of sending it to the mint,
because he can have it coined into
| that at the mint. This increase in
value to be gained by minting silver
will bring large amounts of the white
metal into circulation. The conse-
quent growth of the currency volume
will raise prices 10, Is, perhaps, ulti-
mately, 20 per cent, relieving debtors
and developing business with an ener-
gy unknown in this country since the
period of the war. This is the heart
of the silver philosophy. Prof. Frank
Parsons of Boston University, in De-
tober Arena.

The Straight Issue.

Mr.. Bryan at Richmond delivered
speech which, were it in the hands
of every votr in the United Stat es,
would so spread education on the g.
nancial problem as to cause the gold
standard advocates to be faced every
where by audiences competent to
detect their misstatcments and to
scorn their fact-obscuring rhetoric
about .'sound money which is not
sound, and the .'national honor,
which is quite as dear to other citi-
zens as to their privileged selves.
Here is a paragraph from the Rich
mond speech that is worth miles of
ordinary campaign oratory:
We apply the law Of supply and
demand to money. We say the val
ne of dollar depends on the NUM-
Der of dollars, and that YOU can
raise the value of dollar by max
ing the dollars scarce, and we charge
that our opponents are in favor of
making money scarce because they
are controlled bythose who want mon
ey dear If you are in favor of dear
money you ought to vote the Repnb-
iican ticket. If YOU are in favor of
making money the only thing which
it is desirable to own and making
property the thing that everybody
wants to get rid of, you want to
vote the Republican ticket, because
the Republican party proposes to
continue the present financial sys-
TEN, the object of which is to make
it more profitable to hoard money
and get the increase in the rise of
the value of dollar than to put that
dollar to work employing labor and
developing the resources Of this
great country.
That is good sense. 1t is the great
issue Of the campaign. If the PEG
pie desire continuance of the ex-
listing financial tumble, which is at
the mercy of spectators and which
has paralyzed the business energies
of rich new country, filed with an
industrious population, they will de-
feat Bryan and the Democratic par
ty and elect Mckinley, who repre-
sents the syndicates, the trusts and
the feecers of the people in general.

The story about railway rates to
the meeting of Democratic clubs al
st. Louis on October 3, told in Mr..
Henry Georges letter published in
the journal yesterday morning, is
one that contains lesson and sug.
gestion. 1t appears that Senator
Jones, chairman of the National
Committee, had natural desire to
obtain information as to the arrange
ments of the railways in regard to
offering reduced rates to the dele
gates to that convention. 1t is prob
able that at least thousand mer
will go to st. Louis, and it is custo
mary for railway corporations tc
deal with such large bodies of trav
oilers at what may be called whole
sale prices.
Senator Jones accordingly sem
his stenographer to the chairman o.
the Central Passenger Committee
with a modest request for the de
sired information. The young mar
returned with his serenity complete
ly destroyed, for the passenger agent
fell upon him with bitter invective
and upbraided him with objurgato-
ry phrases for being engaged, even
in the humble capacity of messenger
in an attempt to further the cause
of the Democracy.
This passenger agent declaimed
in unparliamentary terms against
the Chicago Convention, accusing il
of unconeealed principle of anarchy
of enmity to the welfare of the coun.
try, and Of general conditions OF
heinous turpitude unnecessary tt
catalogue anew. Having delivered
himself Of an exordium somewhat
more fiery and a good deal less dig
nified than any Of the orations Of
Demosthenes against the monster
Philip of Nacedon, the agent condo
scendcd to make communication
of fact containing the milk of his
cocoanut. 1t was to the effect that
there would be no special rates fol
such wicked and abandoned crea
lures as the delegates to tie conven
ton of Democratic clubs. Doubt
less this excellent agent of some
thing even larger than railway
corporation thought that the foreign
capitalists who are contributing
such princely sums to aid the free
trade cause in America would glad
ly pay the fare of all delegates upor
whom the expense would be a ser
ious tax.
1t is an undeniable fact that The
payment of $50 or 500 of expenses
in attending the convention would
be formidable obstacle to the pres
ence of some men who ought to be-
there. fit were to be Republican
