The advocates offree coinsge say:
"a dollar will purchase twice rs
much now as 1t would in 1870
therefore If man borrowed $1,000
in 1870, and he paws his debt with
81 ,OO0-to-day, he is paying twice
what he should pay" This is not
80. A dollar stands for a unit OF
labor. In consequence ofimproved
methods, steam machinery and
transportation, u unite of labor will
produce nearly twice as much
to-day, as all workers know, as 1t
would in 1870, therefore il a thous-
and dollars you have loaned in 1870
| is repaid it should have the pur-
chasing power of the same amount
of labor which it had in 1870 The
workers in civilized countries,
when they receive such money in
pay for their services, should now
be able to purchase with twice as
much of the commodities they use
as they could in 1870. Wages are,
therefore, a far better standard to
gauge the length of our dollar, OF
the yardstick of trade, then the
prices Of commodities, which the
free silver men have wrongly
urged as the measure.

Labor is what gives any com.

1T takes less labor to produce q

The more labor it takes to produce

1t is a significant fact that nearly
all Of the religious papers OF our
land are battling for sound money
as against the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver. The popocrats
cannot accuse them of being parti-
san in their views. They look at
the matter frcm patriotic stand
point alone, only considering the
welfare of the country. They
know free coinage of silver would
be almost the death blow to all

An honest financial system, com.
bined with the republican protec-

the standard Of American life
higher than that of any other ma.
ton on the face of the globe. The
fatal democratic blunder of tamper-
ing with the tariff precipitated the
panic of 1893, and it well behoves

to lay it at the door of our financial

Resolutions Of Respect.


TO the Worshipfui Master and
brother wardens, of New Provi-
dence Lodge F. & A. M.
Your committee, duly appointed
to draft suitable resolutions upon
the death of our brother John M.
Armstrong who departed this life
August Sth 1896, would respectfully
submit the following:
Our worthy brother was born on
the Goth of Nov. 1913, and after a
painful illness of several months,
he was called upon by the Great
Architect of the universe, to lay
down the working tools of our
Craft, and appear before Him who
doelh al things well.
From among the loving brothers
left behind, we have been chosen to
speak fitting words to the memory
Of one, whom to know was to love.
He was good, true, noble honest
hearted man. He was ever hopeful
and brave, and never knew the
fear of death, and when it came he
went quietly and peacefully to
sleep, like one who wraps the
drapery of his couch about him and
lies down to pleasant dreams. His
triumphs and defeats, his pleasures
and sorrows, his ASPIRATIONS and
achievements in this life are ended.
1t is meet that we pay this tribute
of respect to his memory.
In his family he was kind and
affectionate husband and father,
and was ever watchful to the in
terests of his beloved wife and
children.
In our fraternity he was strongly
devoted to the great principles
taught, of the Brotherhood of God
and the brotherhood OF man."
Therefore, Be it resolved That in
humble submission we bow to the
W II of the Great Sovereign of the
Universe and while we mourn the
loss of our dear brother, we extend
to his grief stricken widow and
bereaved children, in this sad hour
of sore afiliction, our heart felt
sympathy, and point them to Him
for support and consolation, who
alone can give, and again renew
our obligations to render such aid
comfort counsel and encourage.
ment, as is in our power to those
whom a wise and loving Father
has left with us.
In the stiffness If this moment
in this holy calm, with thoughts Of
the dead in our minds, let US re-
member that we too, must soor
follow the flight of his immortal
spirit, and may we strive to enter
as we hope our brother did, into 9
higher brotherhood to engage In
nobler duties, where we will fine
rest from earthly labors and re
freshments from earthly care. In
holy love and tendernt IS we com
init him to that eternal home be
yond the sun light and the stars
that home of which we know 81
little and for which we hope Sc
much. We consign him to the flu
ture, of which a tongue more tune
full than ours has sung. Resolved
further that this tribute be spread
upon the record of our lodge, as {
memoriam to our beloved brother
and that the same be published IL
the Maryville TIMES, and that tn,
secretary prepare copy of same
under the seal of the lodge ant
transmit to the widow as an ex
