THE majority Of the transac-
tions of the people, both in
number and in total amount.
involve the payment of sums of
money less than one dollar.
Even if there was enough gold
for general circulation, it could
not be coined in sufficiently
small pieces to meet the needs
of the people. We must have
silver which can be coined in
dimes, quarters and half dol
lars. Would not a gold dime
be a daisy! Gold may do for
the money of the rich with
their large transaction, but il
will not do for the small tran
sactions of the common people.
The working people constitute
the great majority. They are
the ones who make this world
worth living in. Their rights
and interests should be respect
ed and protected by law.

A SINGLE drop of sweat upon
the brow of honest labor is of
more benefit to the human race
and more precious in the sight
of God than all the jewels that
are sparkled in the crown of so
called royalty. The man who
by law would deprive labor of
the fruits of its industry is only
deferred from open theft b. fear
of the penalties of THE criminal
law. If he could do so without
danger to himself, he would
not hesitate to rob the grave,
and would steal the Lords sup
per from the very affairs of the
sanctuary, were it sufficiently
valuable to excite his cupidity.
He'll should be made deeper,
hotter and blacker for his ben

THE anxiety of tine represent
atives of trusts, corporations

and heroic efforts to protect
the dear working people from
the ruinous consequences that
would follow the free coinage of
silver is truly commendable and
entities them to the lasting
gratitude of mankind. Inspired
by their bright and shining ex-
ample, wolves should now an
nounce themselves as the pro-
tectors of the sheep fold. In

that they are patterns and cham

should open a Sunday school.

UNDER the free coinage of
silver we never saw a tramp,
and never had a strike or labor

had no such advantages and

of the nation this fall, SAYS that
the birds of most every
species have long since for
saken the country. The doves,
paradise and mocking birds.
the innumerable warblers ofthe
groves and forest, larks, and
even hawks, owls and whippoor-
wills are gone. Very few OF
any kind save crows and buzz
yards remain. He says they
left in the early summer and
believes it was because of a
scarcity of water. He states
also, as a singular fact, that
snakes were never so scarce in
the nation.

CHAUNCEY DEPEw said at the
st. Louis convention that God
was on the side of the republi-
can party, because the bible
says that the streets of heaven
are paved with gold. Every
little two-by-four republican
politician has been repeating
this since. This shows how
dangerous it is for people to
talk about things they do not
understand. The bible says
there is no cuying or selling in
heaven. Therefore. they have
no money there, and use gold
as a commodity only, for the
same purposes for which we
use bricks. plank, stone and
cement on earth. If the illus
tration is worth anything we
should place gold under our
feet, becouse it is only used to
walk upon in heaven. Come

THE assertion that a gold
dollar is an honest dollar does
great violence to the truth. 1t
cuts the price of labor square
in two. 1t makes the farmer
work two days to pay a debt
when he ought to have to work
but one. 1t steals sweat from
labor's brow. Commend US to
such an honest dollar. The
blush of shame ought TO for
ever forsake and become a
stranger to the face of a man
who would advocate such an
honest CD dollar. 1t is a libel
upon the truth, a rape upon
justice and treason to human
itV.
