There will be but little business transacted on that day ii the stores are kept open and so by closing but little will be lost.

THEY do say the silver mine peo-
pie of the West, except few like
Stewart and Jones, are convinced
that there is no prospect of perma-
nent big profits to them in free and
unlimited silver coinage, and in
consequence are not contributing
freely to the Popocratic campaign
fund. Nobody ever accused them
of being fools, and Stewart and
Jones know what they are doing.
What they privately think of the
silverites outside of the mining in
terests if expressed in words would
sound harsh and sarcastic in the
extreme.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE BATH
COUNTY TEACHERS
INSTITUTE.

Monday, Aug. 24.-The Insti-
tute convened at ii o'clock a. NJ,
in the Courthouse at Owingsville,
Ky, and was opened with singing,
followed by devotional exercises
conducted by Ed. G.. w. Porter, of
the Christian Church, Hon. John
ID. Mcintyre, the County SuperiY-
tendent, delivering the following
address -
Ladies and Gentlsnen:-
"Another year has come And
gone. Doubtless it has brought itt
sunshine and shadows; its rdsss
and it's thorns. II
~ trust, however, we have grdwn
stronger mentally, and have nm
proved vastly in the dissemination
of knowledge and the elevation of
our laudable profession. !
Truly it can be said that free
thought, free speech, free press
and free schools are the four great
pillars upon which rests our ma
tional fabric; upon them the gov
eminent was buIlded, and upon
their maintenance depends the
prosperity of American institu-
tions.
''From the school room, whether
in the city or in the hamlet, there
always come the great men of our
country, and it was there that
their characters were nodded and
the foundation of a successful and
useful life was laid. Better than a
jeweled crown, more precious than
the diamands of old GOlconda' 5
mines, more satisfactory than the
scepter of authority, is the pleas
ure of knowing that you have i'm
proved the mind, which God, in
his omniscience, has given; that
your head is a temple in which are
garnered gems of thought.
1.-The philosopher has told US
that all knowledge is preserved in
books, and it but remains for us,
by diligent research, assiduous la
Dor and unremitting toll, to become
profound in learning.
MANY cherish the erroneous
idea that men who have placed
themselves before the world as in
tellectual giants are geniuses.
''In the history of all the world
few people have exhibited super
ior mentality who have not devel-
oped it by burning the midnight
oil.

THE best solution of the silver
question, and one that is just alike
to debtor and creditor, is to enact
that the present gold standard
shall be retained; that all silver
coined at present shall retain its
legal tender functions until it be-
comes abraded and returns to the
minis for re-coinage; that hereaf-
ter all silver bullion presented at
the minis shall be coined at cost to
the owner into convenient multi
piles of the gram, these coins to be
a legal tender at their actual
weights for all debts, except where
something else is contracted, at
the market ratio of silver to gold,
which ratio is be determined by a
daily official calculation made by
the mint officers and published by
them. That sort of law would
give an instant stop to all fear of
a debased standard and cheap
money, would keep our gold in cir
culation, and would provide for as
much good silver money as it is
possible to provide for. If, as
claimed, the greater use of silver as
money will cause its increase in
price relative to gold the silver
producer and bullion owner would
get the benefit of it, without mulct-
ing the people in the least, and
those who hold such money would
also get the benefit of the ad-
vance, just as if it was any other
commodity. Nobody would be
wronged by such law, there would
be no contraction of the circula-
ton, and all the evils of silyerism
would be averted.

Exert during thu paper cur
rency era from 1862 1919. the
gold standard has been practica lily
in use ever since 1884. The best
times the country has ever known
have been since 1873. 1t is an i'm.
parchment of the peoples intelli-
gence to preach to them that the
gold standard has caused the hard
times and has caused the low pri-
ces of farm products. Prices began
declining before the so-called
"crime of 1873" 1t is a real sign
of the general prosperity of the
world for products to get cheaper.
All consumers want products to
become cheaper, for then they can
live better. 1t is considered a boon
to the farmer for farm implements,
household utensils, clothing, coffee,
sugar, and everything he buys, to
become cheaper. 1t is likewise a
boon to the merchant, mechanic
and day-laborer for -four, meal,
bacon, beef, potatoes, and every
thing they buy, to become cheaper.
Don't make money worse, but seek
to make it better. BE patient with
al, and everything will adjust itself
by and by. With good, honest
money, and no threat of repudia-
ton or anarchy or socialism or
Populism, the day will never come
when a farmer or laborer can't by
industry and frugality live CON-
fortably and save a competency for
old age. Those of the brightest
brains can become comparatively
wealthy if they will do so.

TuE assessed value Of property
in Bath county is less than $4,000
GOO. There are about $4,000
people in the county. When the
general divide comes there will be
less than 5000 to the share. The
pianos and organs, the carriages
and buggics, the watches and jew
CRY, the costlier residences and
similar property, can't well be di-
vided, nor can capital that is now
in the form Of notes and accounts
be matcrialized. The land can be
apportioncd; the personally that
can't be divided will have in turn
to be used by each certain time
until ii makes the round. But the
puzzling feature is what is to be-
come of trade and barter? That
will nave to be prohibited, else
some will soon again set more prop
crty than others.
