The Company known through
out the world as the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP ca,

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, it has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value of the remedy as u medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale of
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose of
manufacturing and selling a laxative
remedy. which would be more
pleasant to the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process OF manuiact-
uring, figs are used, as they are
pleasant to the taste, and healthful
in their tendencies, but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination OF
plants known to be incidentally lax
alive, and to act most beneficially.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies are not
needed. If afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but if
in need Of laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most general
satisfaction.

Man Made Monuments and Others.

He was not aware that it had ever
been suggested that it was the work OF
man, and it could not therefore be an
ancient monument.
This somewhat mystic remark was
made by the Irish attorney general in
reply to question about the desirable
ity of preserving the Giant Causeway.
In itself one may be inclined TO dis
pute the attorney generals proposition
that nothing can be ancient or monu-
mental which is not the work of man
man, whose appearance on the planet is
so comparatively modern; man, whose
noblest works are comparatively so
trivial beside the more enduring monu-
ments Of creative energies greater than
his own.

Of course speaking in legal sense, the
point we have indicated suggests real
defect in the law. Would it not be pos

ancient monuments TO natural beauties
and natural marvels?

have been made in that direction, and

Instead of commencing the free sill
yer campaign Of 1900" as other leading
double standard advocates are urging to-
day, we believe it would be wise to cease
agitation and hostility, and allow the
commercial affairs of the nation to re-
sumo normal condition. The people
have said in no unmistakable tones that
they do not want the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at this time, and while
certain other planks of the Chicago plat
form, and the public utterances Of some
of the extremists in the party may have
been more responsible for this verdict
than the financial plank itself, yet the
people are sovereign and their edict
should be respected. All want
and would be proportionately benefited
by return Of prosperity, and while it
cannot be expected in a month or year
after the reigns of government change
hands, yet no distractions should be
placed in its way.-Independent, Grand

The RECORD has no sympathy with
the utterances of those statesmen, who
think there is no need of any radical
changes in the tariff We want the
duties on wool restored, and a sufficient
duty on other products of the farms OF
Michigan to reduce the imports of those
articles. 1t is not expected that foreign
wool and other products will be wholly
shut out, but if the importer has to pay
duty into the United States treasury
for the privilege of doing business here
and the protection of our laws, it will
necessarily help the American farmer
TO maintain the price of his products,
and afford revenue for the expenses of
the government at the same time. Ii
will probably not be possible to pass a
radical tariff law at the coming session
of congress, for the silver senators hold
the balance of power, but honest efforts
should be made in that direction. The
government needs more revenue, and 1t
is possible that the democratic sup
porters of President Cleveland will con-
sent to few tariff changes that will
not only increase the revenues, but be
protective in their nature as well. To
obtain the full benefits of the election
of Mr.. Mckinley, revision of the tariff
is needed, and if the incoming congress
contains republican majority in both
houses such revision will be made.

The gold democrats the late cleo.
ton showed that the prosperity and
honor of their country was more to them
than the success of the aggregation that
captured their name and organization
at Chicago. There is no reason to be-
lieve that they are less patriotic and less
interested in the welfare of the country
than they were before election. There
ought to be no difficulty in the forces
that elected Mckinley agreeing upon a
financial system that will carry to its
fruition the work so nobly begun.

Democrats Formerly n Gold Party.
1t is certain that from 1901, when Mr..
Jefferson became President, to the close of
Buchanan's administration in 1861, the
democratic party was a gold party, op-
posed to silver and all forms of paper
money. AS I have already stated, Mr.
jefferson in 1906 suspended the coinage of
silver dollars and it remained suspended
for more than thirty years. The act of
Congress of 1884 established gold as prac-
tically the only coin in circulation. Gold
coins were Benton's mint drop" All
democrats were then gold bugs" Sena-

Result OF the Coinage OF Silver.
Let US contemplate for while the inevi-
table result of the free coinage of silver
even if 1 repeat what 1 say. 1t would
violate every contract for the payment of
money made since January 1, 1870. The
resumption act, which went into operation
on that day, provided for the payment in
coin on demand of all United States notes
presented for redemption. All forms of
| money whether Of silver or gold or paper
were then maintained at par with each
other and have been so maintained ever
since. During all this period, gold and sill
yer coins at par with each other have been
| the standards Of value of all loans, con-
tracts or purchases and the faith of the
United States was pledged for their main
| tenance at parity with each other.
Although silver bullion declined In mar
ket value, the coins made from It have
been kept at par with gold coins at the
| legal ratio of 16 to l. But If the free COIN
! age of silver is authorized, then the mar
ket value of silver bullion becomes the
| standard for payments on all contracts
made in the past, the present or the f,1-
ture; 412f grains of standard silver bull
| lion, worth now 53 cents, can, with free
| coinage, be coined into dollar upon the
| demand of any holder of such bullion,
| This dollar Is delivered to the owner of the

| undertake to maintain its relative value
| with gold.
The government stamps it "This is a

| but 1t debt-paying power is one dollar.
