who early in the campaign favored free sill

tention of standing by the republican party.
This is especially noticeable wherever Hon.

Every one of his meetings has been largely
attended, enthusiastic and productive of
great good. Without question he is one of
the best speakers heard in the county dur

hear Mr.. Humphrey at the armory on Mon

The Bicycle Face.

"Have you observed" inquired Satan
casually, ,Fthat there is look Of in
tenser agony upon the countenances
of the burning shades than there used
to be?"
ooh, yes" answered Lucifer, rolling
a fresh cigarette. THAT is the bicycle
face, you know. They assume 1t nat
urally the minute they begin TO
scorch."
There was a natural sequence, from
the order of which departure could not
be lightly taken.

How Gold Bug Viewed II.

| On Saturday evening last our friend,
Chandler, discussed the financial question OF
the day from free silver standpoint, al
Weeks hall, to good sized audience. We
went mostly out of curiosity to see what
words of cheer our friend could bring to en-
courage the struggling cause of silver in
| Laingsburg.
The speaker started off by quoting in an
eloquent manner the early history of our re-
public, and eulOgized in glowing terms the
bravery and honesty of the fathers of our
country who sought this then new country.
and founded this grand republic on the prin-
clples of integrity and freedom.
This was all right and true enough, and
we agreed heartily with the speaker, but we
kept wondering what that had to do with
the money question of the campaign of 1896
and we are wondering yet.
Then our friend proceeded to prove that
these were awful hard times, and that prop
erty had deprecated in value, that every
body wore poorer clothes than they used to,
and that money was scarce and getting
scarcer, and that England was just ready to
lambs to the slaughter, and then he looked
right at us and shouted, ''Do you want more
of it." OF course we know 1t is hard times,
and no one said they cared for any more Of
1t, but every man was mum as an oyster.
That times are hard was no news to
Laingsburgers, and had he taken rising
vote as to the fact think every man, wo-
man and child would have stood up.
He then went on to tell us that the great
'crime of 1878" was the cause of all our
trouble. He forgot to say that there had
been fifty times as many silver dollars COIN
ed since the ''crime" as there had ever been
before. Neither did he prove that the
''crime" was the source of our trouble but
just left us to take his word for this SOL
emn word.
Now majority Of the people up here
think the reason is something else. would
rather not mention the true reasons Of the
hard times, because there Is nothing that
will make free silver man so alfred mad
so quick as to mention tariff" ''over pro-
duction," or ''want of confidence"
He said he was just as good a republican
as any man present. and displayed the same
book from which he used to read to fool
people when he was shouting for the G. o.
p. in past years. wondered then, and am
wondering yet how man can work tooth
and nail to defeat party, vote against its
candidates and still be good member of
the same.
~ According to that theory the devil is as
good christian as the purest saint, and
would make good Sunday school teacher,
but we don't believe the theory.
He praised the past record of the republ
can party, and thought 1t had been right on
every great issue until now, and now 1t was
dead wrong.
Well, we will wait and watch future
events, until this wild goose chase after the
silver rainbow Is over. Yes, the grand old
party was right on the slavery question, It
was right on the tariff question, and 1t Is
right on the money question. What next?
1t Is Just too bad to see good fellow like
our friend chasing will o. the wisp, "aone
