Telephone Talk.

Mr.. Wainman, Supt. of the North
western Telephone Co. says their
company are putting up two wires
between Sioux Falls and st. Paul,
one for through buiness and one for
local, and that they expect to have
the line in operation soon. There
will be several district stations located
along the line of which Worthington
will be one. This company will put in
an exchange here providing twenty
five subscribers to rent instruments
can be secured. It is expected they
will have representative at the
council meeting Friday night.
in. VanWagenen, representing
an Automatic Switch Telephone Co.
was here last week also, looking the
field over with view of establishing
an exchange. Owing to the undecid-
ed state of affairs in this line he took
no active steps in the matter, merely
explaining the working of the auto
matte Switch and stated that their
company would put in an exchange
at the same rates and conditions as
the Spirit Lake company and in a
more satisfactory way when the
people arrive at any decision he will
make another visit here. The council
are acting wisely in the matter and
before granting any company
privilege will give the question pro-
per consideration. It is conceded by
almost every one that an exchange
would be a convenient arrangement
for the city, particularly in communi-
eating with surrounding towns, pro-
viding they are provided with SINH
tar facilities. Worthington being
the county seat it should be the first
to take up an enterprise of this kind,
and the other places desiring quick
communications with thistow would
soon establish a system. -

FADS IN MEDICINE.

There are fails in medicine as IN
every thing else and new thing
frequently sells for short time
simply because it is new. But in
medi zine, as in nothing else, the
people demand and will be satisfied
only with positive, absolute merit.
The fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla
has stood its ground against all COM
petition, and its sales have never
wavered but have remained steadily
at the top, demonstrates, beyond any
doubt. the intrinsic virtues OF this
medicine. The new things nave
como and gone but Hoods Sarsa-
parilIa rests upon the solid founda-
ton OF absolute merit and its power
to cure. and its sales continue to be
the largest in the world.

PRINCIPLES AND POLICIES
OF THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.
Extract from the Campaign
Book OF National Repub-
lican Clubs in 1892,
Pages SO and "a.

There is grave danger of the
unqualified adoption OF the
gold standard. For as silver
has been taken ont OF Europe's
coinage, the demand has eu-
ormously grown, and grown in
proportion much greater than
the supply, Measuring both
metals by the standard of COM
modilies, 1t is substantially
true to say that gold has APP
preciated much more than sill
yer has depreciated.' In a ell
yer using country silver will
buy slmost as much Of every
thing except gold as it would
ten or a dozen years ago, and
this fact sustains the demand
for cheaper money. The advo-
Gates Of the gold standard al
lege that the value OF gold is
intrinsic, and that q certain
quantity Of gold bullion having
fixed valuA should be the
standard of exchange. This
would all be- we'll enough
lii any one were able to
insura that the supply of
gold would continually in
crease in ratio with the in
rreasing demand for it caused
Ivy a growing population aud
commerce. BIT, rs a matter of
fact. it is decreasing in that
ratio, and therefore a man who
ten years ago contracted a debt
which might then have been
discharged with thousand
bushels Of wheat must today
pay many more thousand bush,
els to get hi ns-lf free.
t. meaning af this is clear.
The capitalist can increase his
wealth by simply converting
II INTO gold, putting it in Il
vault and holding it idle for Z
series OF years At the end o
Ten years it will buy more provi
-ions and labor than it wonlt
when he stored it. AS The sup
ply Of gold contracts every body
must work harder TO get IL.
at is plain that debtor i
entitled tn discharge obIiga
lions for II valne precisely sim
liar to that lie originally ob
tanned. He can not ito this i
the money in which his loan i
compulsively payable increase
between the date of It's maxim,
ing and the date date Of ii
payment. Measured in gol
, all obligations have thus la
{ increased in a very short peri
|, cd of time. The creditor elias
i "ujoys, therefore, vast advau
