nils up the present moment more deci-
sirely than anything else, whether II
awakens to thought or summons TO ac-
tion.
Last Sunday evening the Wheeling or
chestra gave its first recital OF the Win
ter at Arion Hall, 10 a large audience.
II ts not necessary at this late date to
make an extended notice of the pro-
gramme. but II was In respect OF pub

able. II is y pity these really enjoyable
musical affairs begin at eight o'clock,

hour were made nine O'clock.
The Wheeling oratorio society last

movement OF this number brought for
ward G. II. Kuhn, jr., the new member,
and the impression made was most
favorable. The Beethoven Sonata VIII,
II. NJ. Schockey at the piano and Ed.
Blumenberg with the violin part In his
keeping, was the gem OF the evening.
This number Is written q duet for piano
and violin. and the piano Is made es-
specially prominent. Mr.. Schockey's
mastery OF this instrument was notice
able. Wheeling recognizes II. NJ.
Schockey as its first musician In every
sense of the word. Edward Blumen-
berg's violin and viola work is exquisite,
and his bowling pleased all who saw or
heard him. Fred Meyer. %cellist, de-
serves the greatest praise for his work.

The most notable musical event now
under Amusement is that of bringing the
Pittsburgh orchestra TO Wheeling.
Frederic Archer. the conductor, is known
throughout the artistic world, and this
orchestra under him. devoting az he did,
earnest attention to its personnel, has
made the Pittsburgh orchestra 4 posi-
tive factor in the musical life OF the
country. 1t embraces fifty men. with
Luigi Maria Won kunits. as solo violinist
and concert master. and Arthur Metz
dorf as solo vlolincellist. The endeavor
10 bring such attractions to Wheeling
should be sincerely and heartily cou
aged and In the future there will be no
need to go to Pittsburgh when they ad-
vcrtise similar artistic temptations. Let
the organizations now considering this
step so ahead, and Wheeling people will
appreciate 1t by packing the Opera
House to Its fullest capacity, for music

MIR. C. 1. Ebeling was seen at the
Dollar bank. and his view OF the mat
ter was that the section was Intended
mainly to cover railroad switch grants.
He cited the grant 10 Mr.. Reymann,
for a switch on Sixteenth street. which
was only given under the impression
that he would erect n large business
house. which has not been done. He
claimed the section was not to provide
for the arbitrary sale OF plants at their
actual property worth. but for the
franchise only. Council cannot, said Mr..
Ebeling. take away the plant OF a
company arbitrarily. 1t can only take
ba ok what 1t Srants-the franchise. or
course. the question Is: What Is meant
BY .'physical Splant?"

Councilman Alfred PAUL. who is

opinion. that council could at the ex-
pfrat!on OF a franchise. dispose Of the
plant 20 another Individual or company.
II 1t were TO the interest OF the city to
do SO. at Just the physical worth, OF the
plant. The object. he supposed, was to
protect the interests OF the city; that "
the franchise became more %valuable.t the
city would secure larger benefits than
provided for in the original grant. OF
course the section does not contemplate
n corrupt council. and even In that
event It would be impossible 20 mulct

companies without a great scandal. Mr..
PAUL suggested that the reporter see

THE
Birmingham state herald., 1896-01-05

# is prepared to repeal anything, to con-
 tract the currency to any extent, to re-
 sort 10 any measure, in fact. that will
 steady things and give gold monometal-
 liSm time to clinch it's hold on the throat
 of industry.
 Believing as do that the real and true
 remedy lies in bimetallism, the free coin
 age of both gold and silver, knowing that the present arrangement Is failure and cannot last, seeing with equanimity the rising tide of discontent. beholding the frantic endeavors of monometalism to save itself by contraction, would say to the bimetallsts: You have a winning hand Stand pat. Don't let monometal-
 lism steal any of your cards"
 If the bimetallistS can maintain things as they are, the growing debt and the
 now open effort to contract and the null tiplying evils of the situation they will as surely as the government lasts raise up a vast majority, who will say: Away with contraction, with monometallism with false promises. with falling prices, with expedients Let us back to the proved system of our fathers and of 5000 years of history"
 Bimetallism will then be an accom- plished fact, and not only America, but miseries of this wild craze for gold. To save the day is the thing, and 1t would be supreme folly to strengthen the hands of gold by relieving 1t of the greenback obstacle to it's triumph. You may be sure if the gold basis were sound the
 government of the United States could keep afloat on 1t. not $500,000,OO0 of it's promissory notes as money, but billion The fact that it can't condemns the basis and if their retirement can be prevented the basis will be broadened out of the very necessities of the case. Contraction of the currency is not the remedy, but an increase of money as distinguished from money substitutes. Bimetallism be- ing re-established, the people being all lowed to supply themselves with money by having their gold and silver coined. the time will have arrived for dealing with the green ba cks and national banks and state banks.
 am not used to writing. and have been too prolix already, so just a word more about a fallacy which the mono- metallists are fond of uttering. It is that in modern days the enginery of credit in the shape of checks bills and the like, has done away with the need for so much money. I believe it is 90 per cent credit and 10 per cent money.
 As a matter of fact, just in proportion as people are enlightened and credit de- velops and commerce increases and the methods of business are refined, the need of actual money as the basis multipHes. Run your eye down the list of the per capita of the nations of the world. The least civilized haven't got much money. Their transactions are simple. their cred- it's are small and they don't need much. While the enlightened nations, where credits are most multifarious, have the highest per capita. and are perpetually struggling for more-scrambling for money and devising all sorts of paper substitutes for it.
 Look at England. say the monometal- lists. Her per capita is much smaller | than ours. and she isn't complaining. Aside from the fact that her producers are complaining, and very loudly. too.

CHRONIC DYSPEPSIA. Man Who Could Eat Scarcely Anything Tells How His Appetite Was Recovered Through the
 Eectropoise.

About three years ago I rented from you pocket Electropoise. At that time l had exhausted all means to rid myself of chronic dyspepsia, with which I had been suffering for 15 months. The dys- pepsia had affected my stomach so that l had chronic dysentery. I was reduced in weight from 150 to 120 pounds, and at the time got the Electropoise I was un- able to do any work at all, being con- fined to the bed most of the time; could eat nothing scarcely, and could not retain on my stomach what did eat
 After using the Electropeise about thirty days began to improve, and now I can do as much work as any man, and weigh 166 pounds. My bowels are per- fectly regular and I have never taken a drop of medicine since got the Electro boise. When I feel unwell all I have to do is to use the Electropoise a short while and I soon feel as well as ever Very truly yours, W. T. HINTON, Twentieth street, between E. and r, Bir-
