Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
have been in this state about week; I've
been hunting around for what the silver men
told me that the West was full of, the crazy
silver men. Oaughter) l have been
through Indiana on the search, through Illi-
nois through Iowa, and have met ten au-
diences like this in Minnesota. / can't see
any difference between the audentE5s here
and in New York. all through the line they
look like round-headed, square shouldered,
thinking and women, and 1 don't be-
lieve a word that the silver men have said.
Gaughter) They tell in the East that the
West is wild with silver, and that every
state in this great Mississippi valley and
Missouri valley are solid for the silver ticket.
When they go down there and lie about that,
they come back here and say that New York
and all New England is changing its mind
and that they are for free silver, and a per-
feet furore is going to sweep the country for
Bryan on the Sd of November. Qaughter.)

NO HALF MEASURES FOR HIM.

Among the many letters received
to-day by Mr.. Mckinley, was one
from A. P. Hull, OF Atlanta, Ga. Mr..
Hull declares that he is 16 to 1
man, but does not want any half
way measures. II am in favor"
says Mr.. Hull, "of the free and un-
limited coinage OF pig iron at a ratio
OF 16 to by the United States.
The stamp of the government would
make it bullion value the same as it's
mint value. Wages would be COM
PEELED to rise, because no man would
be fool enough to work for a dollar Il
day, who could make 81 900 a day
picking up rusty nails and old horse
shoes, and taking them to the mint
for coinage"
Major Mckinley was much amused
by this letter, and thinks it one ofthe
happiest hits evolved by represent
situation.-Ex.

A schoolboy wrote the following
essay on 1.-THE Mosquitoes of Ameri-
ca"
The mosquitoes of America are so
large, that many OF them weigh
pound. They are very ferocious;
they climb the trees and bark. Some
times mosquito crawls down to the
foot OF a tree and roots. They Ikea
trunk and will get into it if they can.
They divide into several branches.
When you try to catch a mosquito
he scars away among trees and
leaves. A mosquito sucks human
blood and flies; he sucks the blood OF
cattle and hides. They drink with
their bills and eat with avidity.
Their bills are larger than the Nc
Kinley bill, and tear-if not prohib-
tied, they export blood and import
poison. They bleed you with a col
lection OF large bills, which are al
ways present( ed) in summer. They
fly with their eyes open and light
on their feet. They prefer tx nights;
in the daytime they ego TO grass"
They are treacherous in duel and
will draw blood before you are aware
OF it. They are not discouraged by
an exhibition OF your cheek, but
rather take advantage OF it. They
are easily provoked and fly to arms.
They are also given to back-blting.
With his sting, mosquito produces
wounds and scars. Upon the whole
they do much harm, because they
are IN sects and have no scruples OF
conscience.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
~ Grain and Chaff.

E. E. LoMMEN, populist candidate
for Congress, said in his speech here
last week that after a while he would
be in favor of demonetizing both gold
and silver and use only legal tender
paper money. Such talk shows lam
entable ignorance of monetary science
and with him the worlds sad expert
ence with fiat money in the past
counts for naught.

WHY is it that wages in all silver
standard countries are lower than in
those having gold standard?
There is more poverty, misery in
justice and inequality there than
anywhere else in the world. A silver
standard don't seem to have brought
any special blessings to those coun-
tries. If not to them why should it
to the people Of the United States?

CARLISLE'S OPINION.
Free Coinage Means Silver Basis.
Government Not Obliged Then to Maintain
Silver Parity.

Little Rock, Ark, July 3O.-A
statement was widely published by
the press few days ago that Presi-
dent G.. L. Greene of the Connecticut
Life Insurance company Of Hartford
had issued circular letter to policy
holders, notifying them that, in the
event that the government adopted
the free coinage of silver, the compa-
ny would be compelled to pay all
claims in deprecated silver coin. Mr..
F. W. Alsop of this city sent clip
ping of this statement to Secretary Of
the Treasury Carlisle, with request
for an expression on the subject. He
has received reply from Mr.. Carlisle,
which is, in part, as follows:
''In case free coinage of silver
should be established in this country
[ presume insurance companies and
all other institutions would continue
to make their payments by checks
and drafts on banks as heretofore; in
my opinion the whole volume of our
currency would sink at once to the
silver basis and these checks and
drafts would be paid in silver dollars
or their equivalent instead of gold or
it's equivalent as is now the case.
presume no one supposes for mo-
ment that it would be the duty of the
government to attempt to keep the
standard silver dollar coined free for
private individuals and corporations
equal in value to a gold dollar; or in
other words that it would be the duty
of the government to attempt under a
system of free coinage to maintain the
parity of the two metals. The dollars
would be coined on private account
and delivered to private individuals
and corporations as their own proper
ty, the government having no interest
in them and being therefore under no
obligation to sustain them by guar
anteeing their value.
s.Under our existing system all sill
yer dollars are coined on account Of

the government and are issued by the
government in the payment Of its ex-
penditures and other obligations and
it would be an act of bad faith there
fore to permit them to depreciate.
Yours truly, J. G.. CARLISLE"

Postponement Of Hearing Over Pro-

PROSPECT FOR RAPID TRANSIT

The question of the equipment Of the
Line railroads with compressed air motors.
SO far, at least, as the courts Are con-
cerned, was postponed today until Tues
day next
Early this month, as reported in The
Star at the time, Receiver w. kesley
Schoepf of the two roads asked authority
from the Equity Court to issue receivers
certificates for the purpose of equipping
the roads with the motors, the certificates
to be first liens on the property of the
roads. Mr.. Schoepf wanted to issue GER
tiiicdtes to the amount of about $4,000
with which to begin the Belt Line and
about $4,000 for the lexington road
The petition was presented to Judge Cox,
who directed that the parties interested
should today show cause, if any they had,
why the authority desired should not be
granted.
Mr.. Jere M. Wilson, said to represent the
fore Judge Cox this morning, but the re-
ceiver was not represented and at the sug-
gestion of Mr.. Wilson, Judge Cox post
poned the hearing in the matter until next
Tuesday. And ii is understood that Mr.
John Ridout, attorney for Receiver Schoepf,
subsequently agreed to the postponement.
1t was said at the city hall today that Mr.
Schoepf desired to get an order from the
court for authority to issue certificates to
the amount of 100 for the current eX-
penses of the roads. 1t is understood, how
ever, that such thing would have been
vigorously resisted by the other parties,
and Mr.. Ridout was reported later in the
day to have declared that nothing what
ever will be done by either side before
Tuesday.

Sent to the HospifaI.

Moy Sing, Chinaman, who has been un-
able to do any work for two years, was
turned over to the authorities today be-
cause of his poverty and sickness. Yu
Lung, who is a Chinese merchant, has
cared for the sick man for two years. but
the patients condition has not improved,
and, thinking hospital treatment might do
him good, he made application to Sanitary
Officer Frank to have his sick friend cared
for. He had been treated by a physician
for rheumatism.
The sanitary officer issued a permit, and
had the sick Chinaman sent to the WASH
ington Asylum Hospital. Although Moy
Sing is not the first Chinaman sent to a
hospital, very few of the celestials apply
for assistance in this way. AS rule their
fellow countrymen care for them to the
last, and do not like to have their friends
sent to the hospital. In this case, how
ever, the sick man was cared for until the
last hope was almost gone, and his re-
moval was the last resort.
