one time we had nearly 300 million
dollars of it on hand at one time.
We wish to call attention to psrtic-
ular paragraph in the Press article
the following:
The above writer thinks the amount OF sill
YER available for coinage under free coinage
would be 80 small that we could "stand 1t"
without panic. But he wholly miscOnceives
the cause OF the apprehended panic. The
panic would come long before any legislation
could be had for free coinage. 1t would come
as the immediate result Of the election Of
Bryan; for the President Of the United States
has, under existing laws, the power to change
the money standard TO silver by the simple
act Of paying our obligations In silver. The
Chicago platform demands this. Bryan pro-
claims his intention to do it. In three days,
perhaps In one, after his election all gold
would be withdrawn from the treasury, and
the most stupsndous panic ever known in his
tory would set in, followed by general ruin
and years of business depression more severe
than was ever known in this country.
That shows not only the power which
our ''present gold standard" policy has
given to the gold speCulstors, but it
shows also that the Republican party
has undertaken to defend the criminal
usurpstion. "In three days, perhaps
in one," says the Press, ''all gold would
be withdrawn from the treasury, and
the most Stupendous panic ever known
in history would set in"-snd 80 on.
Suppose the Secretary of the Treasury
would exercise his lawful and proper
discretion and redeem notes with silver
coin, he could easily prevent the with.
drswsl of gold, all of it or any part of
it. How would that work on venture?
Would panic set In while the gold re-
mains In the treasury And If so,
who would be responsible for it? The
gold standard policy is surely most
desirable one when few stock brokers
are permitted to drain the treasury and
bring on q disastrous panic at will.

A SILVER CONGRESS NECESSARY.

Every friend of silver has by this
time had thoroughly impressed on his
mind the Importance of a vote for the
Electors named by the allied silver
forces. Not 80 much attention has
been given to the Congressional fight.
Mr.. Brysn's work in the Presidential
chair would be seriously hampered and
to great extent the good results ex'
pected to accrue from his election will
be nulli6ed If he is not supported by a
Congress both houses of which are
controlled by silver men. He can do
little toward restoring silver to its
proper place In our monetary system
unless appropriate legislation Is sub
mitted for his signature. 1t is true
that he can appoint Secretary Of the
Treasury who will stop raids on the
treasury; he can direct him to pay out
silver as well as gold, but all that he
can do will amount to little without
the cooperation of both houses of
Congress.
In Kansas the silver forces present q
thoroughly united front. With one
exception the silver forces are support
ing but one candidate in each Of the
districts of the State. Nothing should
be permitted to interfere with the
casting Of every silver vote for the
silver candidate for Congress. And in
this connection it is proper to state
that although there is now a silver ma
jority In the Senate, 1t Is not possible
to make that silver majority too large.
Senator Peffer's successor should be q
silver man. To make sure that he
will be such, every silver man should
give loyal support to the Representa-
tive and Senatorial candidates of the
silver forces. In q large majority OF
cases there Is but one silver candidate
in the field. Every silver vote should
60 to his support. Let Kansas do her

THE 6ght being made on Judge
Doster by Republican papers, the
charges that he is an unsafe man for q
judicial position, and the publication of
garbled quotations and extracts from
his speeches, are all promoted by the
hatred of the corporations. In the
Republican convention Judge Martin
was defeated because of his fairness
and impartiality and because Of the
utter failure Of corporations to inAu-
ence him, although he had been a cor
porstlOn lawyer. 1t is preSumsble,
and 1t is 80 charged by Republican
papers, that Judge Carver, who was
named In Martins stead, Is the kind
of q man the corporations want. II
be is not, why turn Martin downG The
fight on Judge Doster indicates that
the corporations have q man running
against him who is satisfactory to
them and whom they want elected.
With the people It Is q choice between
q corporation judge and judge whose
interests are solely with the common
people. Stand by Judge Doster.

ABOUT THE PUBLIC CREDIT.

We hear great deal about the pub.
lie credit, as If the nation were unable
to pay it's debts. Can anybody men,
tion a time within thirty-fve years
when the United States were unable Co
satisfy every just demand made upon
the governmentP Can anybody name
a day or year since 1854 when there
was any doubt In any quarter about
our ability or our readiness and will
ingness to pay any and every debt we
owed that was dueP Why, the very
men who make all this fuss about our
credit being in peril stand ready to
buy our bonds even when they are "re-
deem able in coin of the standard value
of July IA, 1870"
The only debts we now owe are In
the form of bonds that will not be due
for some years. They are all payable
in coin, and we have gold and silver
enough In our own mines TO supply
the necessary metals for coinage, But
If we had not the metal or the coin,
we have wheat and corn and cotton
and thousand other articles that can
be procured with such money as we
have, and they can be turned into coin
at any time.
Interest on bonds is the only debt
due, and that Is spread over the whole
year. Three million dollars q month
is ample for that, and the treasury
cash balance has not fallen below 100
million dollars, except In three months,
during the last eighteen years. There
is more than 200 million dollars In the
treasury now.
The government Ia not responsible
for the private indebtedness Of the
people, nor Is 1t expected to pay the
obligations of railway companies or
other corporations. These may be In
debt, some of them may be insolVent,
but that is not to be laid at the gov
ernment's door.
The truth Is, the public credit was
never better than 1t is now, and nobody
is impugning it except the men who
want to maintain the present vicious
monetary system.

by the corporation papers to prejudice
the people against Judge DOster'S ideas

intimate that his course on the bench
would be otherwise than that Of fair,

SUGAR TREE SAP.
why 1t Flows Even when the Ground L.
Frozen Hard.

Frozen Hard.
There is much difference of opinion
as to where the sap of the tree comes
from. It does not come from the ground
by the roots, but is in the tree and has
been all the winter, but in the form Of
starch deposited in the cells of the soft
wood under the bark. When the weather
becomes warm enough in the spring to
set the vital processes in the tree into
action, this starch is changed into
sugar and the cells become so full of
the sweet sap as to exert a great pres
sure ON them.
When the spring begins, the warmth
of the sun starts this vital action and
the sap circulates through the cells on
the way to the buds, which will swell
and soon burst into leaf When the
sugar maker taps the tree, the pressure
of the sap ON the cells forces it to exude
and flow from the opening made into
the sap wood. There is no special cur
rent up from the roots or down to them !;
the tree is simply filled with sap all
through the sap wood, and mostly at
that part of it which lies Immediately
under the bark, and where the new
wood will soon be formed of the matter
held in solution in the sap.
The sap will flow while the ground is
frozen, for it is the warmth in the air
that causes the flow and not the action
of the roots in the soil. Thus it is quite
useless to spread any litter or other non
conducting matter under the tree in the
expectation that if the ground be kept
frozen the budding will be delayed. If
this effect be desired the whole tree
must be covered in and kept in a DOR
mant condition by low temperature
all over. Thus young trees may be kept
in cold storage for months, and are so
kept for shipment to Australia, where
the seasons are exactly the opposite Of
| ours. New York Times.

Tho Mystery of tho Pearl.

The usual source of pearls found
within the oyster appears to be the in
trusion of some small foreign body
which sets up an irritation of cuticle.
The only means of defense open to the
mollusk il to deposit layer of nacre
around the irritating particle and thus
cut it off from the soft, tender skin. A
grain of sand or a small crustacean may
slip in between the lips, and, setting
up irritation, provoke the cuticle to de-
posit around it series of thin films of
nacre. These are added to from time to
time, the little nucleus is completely
encysted and pearl is the result. La

The People of Dads.

Fierce as they are in war, the people
of Dads are when at peace the gentlest
of creatures, extremely dc 7ot I'd to their
children and living home life abso-
lutely unknown among the Arabs Just
as in appearance SO in moral character
do they excel, and the vices so common
among the Moors are unknown in the
homes of the Berbers. They seem to
possess none of that uncomfortable pas
sion that is so large feature in the
Arab character, and its place is taken
by affection and sincerity. Seldom mar
rying more than one wife, prostitution
is absolutely unknown, with the result
that the health of the tribe is excellent
and one never sees those horrid disfig-
urements of feature so common in other
portions of Marocco No doubt to- a
great extent the moral character of the
Berbers is due to the fact that their
women are allowed entire liberty, do
not veil their faces and mix ON almost
all occasions with the men.
One of the first things that struck me
on my arrival at Dads was the good hu-
mored and innocent chaff that passed
between the men and the girls of the
tribe, even i'll the streets of the ksar,
and still more when they brought us our
food to the minzah on the housetop
The women are distinctly pretty, with
very fair skins and clear compilations
but they detract much from their ap-
pearance by the strange manner in
which they adorn their features with
henna and kohl, the former red dye
and the latter antimony. "Tafflet." by
