GROWTH OF SILVER SENTIMENT.
It Is Not Confined to Amy One Section of
nh

It Is Not Confined to Any One Section of
the Country.
That the growth of silver sentiment
is not sectional has been shown by the
recent developments in New York, New
Jersey. Connecticut and Massachu-
sets. In New York Senator Hill has al
last been pried off the fence by his own
constituents, who, in electing him n
delegate to the state convention, have
unanimously instructed him TO vote for
the Endorsement of the Chicago candi-
date and platform. That Mr.. Hill has
been unable to accept his election under
conditions that would require him to
divorce himself from the opulent asso-
Citations that have grown so essentia!

was Il democrat does not detract from
the value of this exhibition of eastern
popular feeling. 4 still more impress
siye display of the spread of democratic
principles has been witnessed in New
Jersey. where the democratic state con
vention met on the very day on which
the Jersey bond syndicate candidate for
the vice presidency issued his letter ot
acceptance. Only four months ago a
convention purporting to represent the
New Jersey democracy met. and
with funereal soleInnity resolved
to battle for the gold stand
ard. That gathering assembled
in the gloom of assured and well-de-
served defeat Now the real democ-
racy of New Jersey, revived. rejuve-
mated and confident of victory has
come together and enthusiastically
pledged itself to the restoration of BIZ
metalIism. In connection the pri-
MARES indicated that the advocates of
gold will be routed in the coming state
convention, and in Massachusetts, the
friends of the Chicago platform are not
only carrying everything within the
democratic organization, but an impair
tiaI poll shows that they have good
chance of carrying the state in the cleo
tion.-N. !. Journal

Mr. Mckinley Gives Utterance to Free
silver Truth.
In his letter of acceptance Mr.. Nc
Kinley says: 1.-THE silver question is
not the only issue affecting our money
in the pending contest. Not content
with urging the free coinage of silver,
its strongest champions demand that
our paper money shall be issued direct
" by the government of the United
States" Why. bless you, major, you
are right for once. The strongest cham
pions of free silver do always demand
that al our paper money shall be is
sued directly to the people by the gov
eminent of the United States, and also
that it shall be full legal tender. If
there is a man in the United States
who is a producer of wealth who is
willing to turn over the job of issuing
paper money to the banks, in our opin-
ion he is a first-class candidate for an
idiot asylum. Gen. Garfield said that
he who controls the money of the coun-
try is absolute master of all it's indus
tries and commerce. Let all thos".
therefore, who are anxious for a gov
eminent of the bankers syndicate, by
the bankers syndicate and for the
bankers syndicate vote for Mckinley,
while those who are for a government
of the people. by the people and for the
people will hesitate long before they

a republican congressman who occn-
pied in the house a desk next TO McFiT-
ley for n year, and for another year
next TO Bryan, and consequently had
ample opportunity to become thor
oughly acquainted with both, speaks in
the highest terms of the strength of
character and backbone of the latter.
while of the former he says he has a
backbone like jellyfsh. This prob
ably accounts for the reason why one
believes that America can adopt and
maintain a double standard without
asking the consent of any other na-

CAUSES OF LOW PRICES.
Restoration of silver VIII Make Farm
Products Bring More.

Products Bring More.
Mr.. Giffen, the statistician of the
London board of trade, a pronounced
gold monometaIIist, holds that gold Is
more variable in value than silver. Oh
course he measures the value of gold
by the average prices of the products
of industry. By carefully comparing
these with gold during long periods
ne finds that gold is by no means stable.
Prof Perry, the writer and author on
subjects of political economy, of VIII
hams college, who also happens to De
a geld standard advocate, says distinct
" tina: all history proves that gold is
variable.
Applying this admitted fact to the
situation of to-day the great fall il
prices since 1891 recently referred to
by Samuel AIIerton will be better ac-
counted for.
In a conversation the other day Mr..
AlIerton said:
I'VE now have 10000 barrels of pork
selling at Sc. We had at the same time
in 1891 100000 barrels of pork selling
at s12.75 per barrel.
I'VE now have 100000 of short
ribs selling at $40 per hundred. We
had at the same time in 1891 96.OO0,O0O
of ribs selling at from SO to 81 per hum
dred.
From 1861 to 1892 lard sold at from
SO to IS per hundred. pounds; now it
sells at S3.10."
Mr.. Allerton accounts for this con-
slant falling of prices from two causes:
First, because the people are idle, and
second, the loss of the foreign demand.
cut off, as he says, by the repeal of reci-
procity.
There is truth in what the big pork
packer says. But it is true also, that
the fall in the prices of everything
else needed by civilized man, including
the price of silver, which was not ali
article affected by reciprocity or by
immediate consumption either by those
who were idle or those at work, shows
THAI some other cause must be sought
to account for the ruinous fall in
prices.

The Question TO settI..

Party lines are all broken. down this
fall. The question for settlement is
shall we have a gold standard or shall
we nave bimetallism. A friend of ours,
who has always voted the republican
ticket, said if the republicans declare
for silver and the democrats for gold,
at their convention, he would vote
for gold, even though it was labeled
democrat. The republicans declared
for gold and many who have always
voted the ticket labeled republican VIII
vote the ticket labeled democrat. this

Joints between pipes on the different

method recommended by Kuehn: A
round hole is made in the collector and
one in the feeder, with pointed ham,

size. The joint is then, as shown in
Fig. 1, Iuted with a ring of clay, and the
end of the feeder plugged with brick

too expensive to get proper T-pieces,
the joint can be made by roofing tiles
or their equivalent, or pieces of drain
pipe, and cement. The end of the feed

tween two sections of collector, which
are broken away on the ends so as to

The joints of two drainpipes may be
made either on the same level or with
one above the other. The level Joint
has the advantage that no loss of fall
ensues; while the disadvantage is that
toads can more readily get in. Join
ing on different levels is more easily
done, and is more secure against the
entrance of toads; but it causes loss OF
fall. Joining at equal heights must
not be done by cutting the larger pipe
in the side and sticking the end of the
smaller one IN the opening, as this
reduces the cross-section OF the collect.

Senator Vests Parable.

Regarding the outcome of the DEM
ocratic national convention, Senator
Vest yesterday told Chicago reporter
the following story with the local ap-
plication that will be revealed:
"a man of the name OF Jack Smythe
used to keep dance house and music
hall down on the river bank at Kansas
City when that town was new." said
the Senator. land furnished evening
diversion for portion of the popula-
ton who were not too fastidlous. And
it was Jake's habit to run his own
show, just as the silver men intend 10
run this convention. One night, as
usual, he announced from the stage
that Miss Birdie Annandale would
sing Down in the Valley"
"a river boatman who happened to
be occupying a proscenium box arose
and entered a protest. He said that
the patrons of Mr.. Smythe's entertain
ment were tired of Down in the VAL
ley and they wanted something new.
He INDUCED also in some reflections
upon the musical accomplishments of
Miss Birdie Anna1daie. and expressed
dissatisfaction with the programme in
general. Mr.. Smythe. being a man
of firm convictions. like those who are
managing this convention, and famil-
lar with the demands of the public.
moved promptly across the stage and
grasped the boatman By the ears.
Showing him along before him. with
well-administered kicks at frequent in
teryals. when he reached the door he
kicked him into the road. while the
audience watched the proceedings with
great interest. Then, when quiet was
restored. Mr.. Smythe returned 70 the
platform and said:
:. Nevertheless and notwithstanding.
Miss Birdie AnnandaIe viii now sing
Down In the Valley y
Mr. Vest recommended the moral IN
this story to the careful reelection of
the goldbugs.
