tiIe demands OF tie people had increased
largely and prices TO the purchaser had
decreased.
1.-The fact that S35, ,000,0OO worth OF
agricultural product WAS imported 10 this
country in one year and that it was bought
and consumed by Americans, proves most
conclusvely that TO that extent, at least.
the agricuituralists OF this country were
the losers, and had they been protec. cd
in their industry by judicious tariff law
the consumers of the land would have
bought that product of their hands instead
OF that which came from foreign lands.

Johns Hopkins University. In 1892 and
1898 he was secretary Of the American
Economic Association.
He is also a bank director in Califor-
MIA, and the free coinage of silver will
take dollars out of his pocket; yet he
is a man of sterling character, says what
he thinks, cost what It may. In a recent
address at the University of Chicago,
Notwithstanding the fact that Prof
LaughliD, head of the Political Economy
department, is a pronounced gold stand
ard advocate, he boldly defended the in
dependent action of the United States at
sixteen to one.
He is regarded by economists as being
the ablest writer in the United States
on the free coinage side. His book,
while scholarly, is written in plain,
colloquial style, and anybody can un-
derstand his arguments. 1t will be to
this campaign what the Rights of Man"
was in England a century ago.

Mckinley on Silver in 1891.

On the 18th of February, 1891 he thus
expressed himself on the subject in a
speech at Toledo:
During all of Grover Cleveland's
years at the head of the government he
was dishonoring one of our precious
metals. one Of our own great products,
degrading silver and raising the price
of gold. He endeavored even before his
Inauguration to Office to stop the coin
age of silver dollars, and afterward and
to the end of his administration persist
emily used his power to that end. He
was determined to contract the circu-
lating medium and to demonet!ze one Of
the coins Of commerce. limit the volume
of money among the people, make money
scarce. and, therefore, dear. He would
have increased the value Of money and
diminished the value of everything
else"

lowering prices.

act of 1873 took away.
IS. Because Mexico has prospered and
kept the purchasing power of her cur
rencv stable under free coinage, and her
labor in many cases is far better off than
Ours. Why does she not change to the
gold standard if dissatisfied? England
would help her and welcome her as one
of her financial colonies, along with the
United States.
40 Because President Andrews, Of
Brown University. is neither a lunatic an
archst or mine owner, and he says:
"khere must be change if we would
avoid bankruptcy. With free coinage
every industry would look up. Never
since slavery days has the press displayed

signaling at Sea.

There is Il great diversity of opinion
in the British navy as to the merits
and dement's of colOred lights for sig
mailing. Most of the young officers are
strongly in their favor. AS they point
out. Il signal on this system can be kept
showing as long as required, while any
amoun of repetition of flash-Signaling
may not. under some conditions. rem
der it ineligible with any degree Of
certainty.
The British naval authorities who
have been interchangeable in testing new
systems of signaling. both for day and
night purposes, have recently made Il
trial at Portsmouth of the Sellner sys-
tenn. invented by an officer in the Aus
trian navy. This system consists of
two lanterns. each capable of produc-
ing five classes of light, namely, white
n red, white occulting, red occul-
ting. Thirty different combinations
are placed on the code. Electric lights
are used for the lanterns, and though
for the present, separate batteries are
used for the lights and for the signal
ing apparatus by which the lights are
changed and obscured at will. If il
intended that eventually one dynamo
shall supply all of the current required.
A record of signals sent by the appa-
ratuS is obtained by an attachment
which prints the message sent auto
matically. No difficulty was expert
enced in reading the signals at IA dis
lance of six miles or more. The OBJ
lection raised to the system is that
the mechanism is far too delicate and
complicated. though the results OBJ.
tanned with it far exceed those DOS

Strange Railway Passengers.

The engineer of Alabama Great
Southern passenger train No. . that left
Alfalfa, Ala, the other morning. found
that he had Il strange passenger which
he had been carrying for TWENTY-FIVE
miles. Near CollinSville the engine
struck Il calf. and when the train had
been stopped he found the animal
lodged in the lap of Il young woman
who was riding upon the cowcatcher
anu holding in her arms II young child.
When the cowcatcher struck the calf
1t threw it upon the woman's Ian,
weighing her down so that she could
not move. When found she WAS nm.
conscious and the babe asleep. Sh.
was rescued from her perilous position
by the engineer and fireman and put off
nj Collinsville. The oma was about
- years of age, we'll dressed and cool
looking. She refused to give her name
where she came from, or where she
was going,
