"Th3 financial situation in the
United States is very serious. The
condition of affairs in the United
States Congress demands the imme-
date attention of British fnanciers
and statesmen. The trade of the
world is now in our hands, but it
will not long remain there if the
United States goes to a bimetallic
basis with free and unlimited coinage
of silver.
"With the addition of silver to
the volume Of money, everything in
America would take on a new face;
labor and industry would gain new
life. The grip OF the gold standard
on the products of the world would
be loosened and prices would rise.
Great Britain would lose her mar
kets in South America, Asia and
Europe, and American ships would
not be long in capturing the carry
ing trade OF the world.
british creditors must now apply
themselves quickly to the American
money problem. The American
people are now thoroughly aroused
and educated on the power and use
IF money, and made desperate by
iebt and business depression, they

Republican party can force pro
action tariff as the main issue in
he coming presidential campaign,

mind and carries at the polls, it will

MANCHESTER NOTES.

The congregation of the First Bap-
tist Church entered the main audito-
rum last Sunday, the work having
been completed from tie damage re-
ceived on Tuesday night, Sept 29th
last, when the entire county was Wis
tied by terrible wind storm, causing
"A great loss to property throughout
the state. The 1st Church received it's
share. Since it has been completed,
the ceiling presents grander appear
ance than ever before. The seats are
all in place i'm the gallery, and the cen
tire of the church q scar is left as me-
mortal of the event of the night of
September %, 1895, for the rising gen.
Grafton.
Since this is the 10Th year of the lst
Church, we think the entire member
ship should meet and celebrate the
same for one week with prayer, thanks
giving and other offerings.
Rev G. @ Coleman, the pastor of
22nd Street Brptist Church officiai ed
on last Sunday morning and preached
an interesting sermon. At the conclu-
sion of the services, Rev. Davis. pastor
of the 2nd Baptist Church immersed
one candidate by baptism in the pool of
the LIST Church for his church. This
was the first time he had ever baptized
any one. In the afternoon, Rev. Bir-
chett assisted by Rev. McFunn, of the
Theological Seminary preached a wide
