IN BEHALF OF BIMETALLIsM.

Elsewhere in this issue will be found
an appeal to the friends of birnetallis1n
in Utah and other sections of the coun-
try by the executive committee of the
American B.metallic union. 1t should
meet with ready response from every
person in the state who has the inter
est Of the people and the common
wealth at heart. AS this appeal points
out, the battle is now on and success
is in sight if the people but half do
their duty. The spread of the silver
sentiment throughout the country has
been truly astonishing, in fact much
greater than the most sanguine could
have hoped for This is very largely
owing to the work CT the Bimetallic
union. In the west we do not fully
appreciate TIE work that has been
done; one has to read the eastern pa
pers to know how silver literature has
been spread broadcast over the land.
Even these papers have not realized
this until recently. And it has borne
great fruit
The appeal truly says that I'VE must
have speakers in the field, we must cir
culate our literature. we must furnish
ii gratuitously to those WHO are too
poor to pay for it. We therefore ap-
peal to friends of the cause every
where to contribute such sums as they
may feel able to give for this great
work, assuring them that it shall be
carefully expended, and with all the
intelligence that can be brought to
bear" This cannot be done without
funds. There must be provided the
sinews of war TO carry on the great
work in behalf CT free silver, which
means prosperity. Let it not be for
gotten that many mites make a
mickle.
The address appended to the appeal
cannot fail to make it plain to every
citizen of Utah that this appeal is a
matter thai concerns them most VI
tally. With free coinage there would
be inaugurated in Utah such an era of
prosperity as we have never known
Let all do what they can to further the
common cause of al, the cause of free

Not to BE outdone.

I've always wanted to see some of your
California mountains" said an old English
sea captain yesterday, and I'm going 10
90 it TINS time sure. That desire was first
aroused in me by story I heard in Glas-
low
"A Californian was visiting some rela-
tiyes near that city, and naturally fell 10
discussing the scenery.
10 you call those mountains?' he
asked, pointing to some neighboring hills.
Nav replied the host, they De but
hills. That beyant is a mountain
" oh. that's a mountain, is it? Well,
in California you would have to pile up
all the hills and mountains in sight here
on top of the other before they would call
it a hill
The old Scotchman scratched his head,
looked incredulous, but said nothing. That
night he slipped the biggest saltwater
crab he could get into the visitors bed, and
soon after retiring he heard a howl in the
guests chamber.
. Hoots. mon, what ais YEP he shout
ed, as he burst into the room.
What in the dickens have you got
that crab in bed for? demanded the guest,
as he rubbed e. red spot on his anatomy.
That's ma a crab, mon, that's a High
land flea declared the old Scotchman,
and they heard no more of California
wonders during that visit.-San Francisco

HOW RocNEFIsLLER STARTED.

Not long ago, something like ten days
since, Mr.. John D. Rockefeller pre-
sented to the city of Cleveland a park
of nearly three hundred acres, and of
the value of 100000 a committee of
| Cleveland men called upon him to
thank him for his magnificent gift. In
his response Mr.. Rockefeller told, in
part, the story Of his start in life. Con-
sidering how marvellous has been his
success, it is well worthy of reproduc-
| ing as an example to boys and young
men CT what pluck can do. He said:
AS a boy just out of school, 1 found
myseif looking for situation early
in life. I walked ali over town in an
attempt to find something to do. I Wis
tied every railroad Office, every store,
and, in fact, every place in the city
where l thought l could find employ
ment. Everywhere L met with discour-
agement until l found one man, God
bless him, who took me into his Office
and gave me work, and that man was
H. B. futile
That was the beginning, and few
years later started little business of
my own with a partner. In a short
time came a crisis in our affairs, and
it was necessary for our young firm,
which was beginning to branch out, TO
raise more money. | remembered my
friends and acquaintance, and called
on them, one after another. Many ex-
pressed the most profound interest in
our firm, but that's ALL l supposed
that all had to do was to write
my name and obtain the necessary
loan, but l was mistaken. You, as
business men, know what that means;
they were all very willing, you know,
but on account CT certain arrange
rnents just entered into they could not
do It.
Just at this critical moment I be-
thought me to try the bankers, and
finally visited the office of a dear
friend of mine-he is friend OF US all
4 mean Mr.. T. P. Handy. 1 expected
him here this afternoon, and I hope he
may yet come. We all reverence Mr..
Handy, and 1 have particular reason
to be grateful to him. He asked me
how 1 proposed to conduct my business
and how mach money 1 wanted. Gen
tlemecl, it was an enormous sum. and
l scarcely dared to name it to him; II
was 81, 600. "A1l right, Mr.. Rockefeller.
you can have the money" said Mr..
Handy, and as l went out of that bank
| full of hope 1 stood up straight and
erect, as 1 then considered myself one
GU the business men of Cleveland, you
know.
Mr.. Rockefeller's success has been
great, great beyond the lrears of most
men, but who will say that it has not
been deserved? Rarely does fortune
smile upon anyone as it has upon him.
But he is building up for himself in the
Chicago university and other but sim
liar ways a name that will be honored
through coming ages. If his fortune
is princely- SO are his benefactions.
The story of his start in early life
should encourage all young men.

A cHLoRAL HABIT VICTIM.

When the Thirteenth infantry was
stationed at Fort Douglas in the early
seventies there was in the regiment a
dashing young lieutenant who set the
hearts of all the young ladies on fire.
This was Lieutenant NJ. j. lamar, now
a captain in the Fourteenth infantry.
Evil fortune seems to have fallen upon
him. He has been court martialed and
recommended for dismissal. His case
is now under consideration by the
president.
The captain is charged with conduct
unbecoming an officer and a gentle
man. the charge consisting of general
financial Incompetence and hardness in
paying debts Captain Janiar's defense
IS that he is a victim of the choral
habit, having been addicted to the use
of hydrate of choral for several years.
1t is on this ground that he asks lem
iency, declaring that certain misstate-
ments which he is known to have ut
tered were caused by the effect of chic
raj on his moral nature. His analysis
OF the case is said TO be very ingenius
and to approach in interest the Con
LESSONS Of an Opium Eater"
1t is hardly likely that the president
will consider the defense adequate,
though it is our hope that he Will, for
lamar was a jolly good fellow when
here, and we should regret very much
to have misfortune and disgrace over
take him after quarter OF a century S
service in the army.

necessity OF begging TO Be excused from
answering. It does not exist EIr
Thurston does not make the charge
tlas Mr.. Bryan has been in the pay
OF any silver combine he is far too
shrewd for that, and as a lawyer
knows he could not prove it We're it
made What does he do? He resorts
to the arts of the demagogue. Il do
say, my countTynen," shouted he,
and I know whereof l speak, that for
three years and half, without regard
to Bryan, that there has been a Sc
leceed corps Of orators and writers,
paid employees of the silver producers,
spreading their literature over this
country from one end to the other, tell
ing the farmer that he will have more
for wheat, telling the lasooring man
that he Will have more for his work"
He feels secure that his insinuation
that Mr. Bryan was among this Sc
lecGed corps Of orators and writers
will be accepted as a truth. And he
also knows that when people come to
! q conclusion through their own in
ference. no matter how false i. may be,
that their belief in it is very much
stronger than their belief in any sim
pie statement If John NJ Thurston de-
sires to intimate that Mr.. Bryan has
ever been in the employ or pay of the
Bimetallic union, he intimates that
which is false. If he had been it was
his right, as much as it was Mr.. Thurs
tons to be in the employ of the Union
Pacific railway. Mr.. Thurston makes
his attacks upon Mr.. Bryan with a
much greater zest than he otherwise
would because Mr. Thurston was for a
number of years the general solicitor
Of the Union Pacific railway, and that
corporation has always been MI. Bry-
ans arch enemy He was too near
to the heart of the people for this
corporation to be anything but his
enemy. The very center of the opposi-
tion to Mr.. Bryan in Nebraska is the
general offices of the Union Pacific
in Omaha. And now MI Thurston is
on the stump as the mouth of that
opposition. 1t is well that all this
should be remembered when the So
lcitor-senator attacks Mr.. Bryan.

THURsT0N ATTACKS BRYAN.

Senator John NJ. Thurston opened
the campaign in Wisconsin at Madi-
son Friday night. Whether he is an
orator or not we cannot say; that ne
is demagogue is proven by his
speech. He began by saying than four
years ago he heard Mr.. Bryan make
a speech and that the whole burden of
it was tariff. Most likely it was, for
four years ago the issue was tariff.
Then Mr.. Thurston talked on the
silver question. He adroitly quoted
from the Chicago Chronicle TIE charge
that Mr.. Bryan had been in the SER
vice and pay Of the silver combine"
What the "silver combine is he did
not say but left il to his hearers mag
ination to find out. Had he been asked
to tell what it was, of whom com
posed, he would have been under the

a PRACTICAL LESSON IN FINANCE,

The communications to the eastern
press on the fnancial question are far
more interesting reading than the lat
est summer novel A correspondent
writes to the Philadelphia Times and
catches that paper in a trap from
which there is no escape. He says:
To the Editor of the Times:
In answering e. Berry today you
make the same old threadbare asser-
ton that a silver dollar is now worth
SO cents.
You have persisted in this thing right
along, knowing. as l do, and as all in
telligent persons ought to know, that
such statement is moi only rot, but
that it is absolutely false, and in order
to prove the want of good faith and
honesty upon your part permit me to
make the following suggestion:
On Saturday morning al 10 o'clock l
will call a the Times Office and pay
you $3.50 in gold for 100 silver dollars
OF course this will be an advance of
80 per cent on your valuation. but | will
have no reason to complain If you will
but toe the mark.
Come. now, be a man or a mouse or
a long-tail rat. Very respectfully,
J. A. SLOAN.
Beverly, n. j.

an answer it is. 1t says it undertakes

SC Init
that is not all 1t continues: The sill
yer dollar of today is worth just 90
cents or a fraction less than that, but
it has the fat stamp of the government
as indorser giving it the fictitious val
ue at the cost Of the indorser of 100
cents, and the government is obligated
to redeem it at that price regardless
of its deprecated value.
IF Mr. Sloan will call at the Times
office he will be directed to a banker
or broker, where he can be accommo-
dated in his exchange of gold for sill
ject lesson, which even his obtuseness
might be able to comprehend Any
broker would supply him with 100 sill
yer dollars coined by Mexico or Japan,
and worth more intrinsically than the
American silver dollar, for less than
$3.50 in gold. Indeed, he can get the
100 silver dollars worth more than the
American silver dollars, without he
government guarantee, for just about
SIS or sos.
I'VE recommend, however, to Mr..
Sloan by way of hammering a little
common sense into his head, that he
purchase 100 of these better silver dol
lars than ours outside of the govern
ment guarantee, for $3.50, and then
undertake to purchase the necessaries
of life with them. He would then dis
cover his 100 silver dollars, with more
silver in them than the American dol
lar. would buy him just about $50 worth
of the necessaries of life
The question is not as to the dollars
of Mexico or Japan or Farther India
or any other place, but in the United
States. It will be observed that the
Times does not accept Mr. Sloan's
really generous offer, according to its
theory of the value of a silver dollar,
which shows that it possesses the pow
