SIMPSON AND SILVER.

Mr.. EDITOR: COldwater the county
seat of Comanche county was where
Mr.. Simpson spoke Monday, August
3lst. Like the rest Of these counties,
fully One-third more people came out
to hear him than went to hear Long
two days before. There is quite
struggle in this county over represent
alive, with the chances in favor Of our
man, for the reason the people believe
that the republican nominee, who al
ready, prior TO his election has been
able to procure passes from the Santa
Fe, for political purposes, and of course
they know if he is elected he would
not be expected to vOte for maximum
freight rate bill or any other measure
for the people, as against the corpora
tlons. Mr.. Bell, the fusion nominee,
is rauchman and a shipper. and his
vote will be cast for an equitable and
just freight rate and silver man for
United States senator.
Greensburg, the county seat of KiOwa
county, was the next pont. To have
gone there by rail would have taken
two days but by the kindness Of DR..
Bennett, who lives near GreeDsburg,
we drove across the country about
thirty-6ve miles. DIR. Bennett owns
a fine ranch of over three thousand
acres and is one of the leading popu-
lists of his county. The meeting here
was held in the opera house which was
full as it could hold, and MIR. Simpson
spoke two hours. A gentleman in the
audience asked few questions trying
to lead Mr.. Simpson off on to discus
sion of the tariff question. l don't
think he will ever ask any more qnes-
tions for he did not know where he
twas att when Jerry got through with
him. They are very much in need of
pOpulist paper at Greensburg. We
have about half of the county officers
and all of the commissioners.
Pratt: 1t was the largest and most
enthusiastic meeting we have had.
VIM. Barrett, a democrat, was presl-
dent of the day; besides there were
forty vice presidents who sat Oh the
platform, composed about equally of
free silver republicans, democrats and
populists. Jerry spoke for two and
one. half hours. Here his wife and
son Joined him for visit. At night
there was a Bryan and Silver club or
ganized with 3O4 members.
Turon, thriving little town in the
western part Of Reno county, was the
next meeting. place. There were about
| 500 people at that meeting, composed
principally of farmers and their fam
lilies. AT the close of Jerry's speech
Frank Fields, candidate for senator in
the observation-disclosures district
made good speech OF the Kansas
freight rate question and matters Of
local interest.
st. John, Stafford county, came next
1 cannot say more of this meeting than
that it was a grand success. Hun
dreds of people were turned from the
rink for want of space. While Stafford

The Arkansas election which was
held Monday is to the free silver cause
what the Vermont election was to the
gold standard. However the shYer
gains in Arkansas were greater
than the gold standard gains
in Vermont. Arkansas Went some
thing like 10000 for free silver and
about trebble the majority of two years
ago. 1t is now probably Mark Hanna's
turn to say the Dutch have captured
Holland.

ANARCHY, reputation, and diShOn-
esty are eminently proper words for
the plutocrats to shy at the humble ag-
ricultural advocate OF silver. 1t is all
right, for them however, to bond and
stock their railroads, factories, water
works, car lines, ETC., to four or FIVE
times their actual value, then apply for
receiver and pay their indebtedness
at forty or fifty cents on the dollar
That isn't Reputation. That's bus

The News IN attempting TO get out of
the embarrassing position into which
their brethren have been thrown by
quoting from the records Senator Sher-
mans remasks that he would take the
last shirt from the backs Of the people,
ETC., says, he did not gay it was to
maintain the gold reserve, but that he
would do that rather than violate the
faith Of the government, and that it
was said in reference to law for more
revinue. All we have to say is that
all such people from the News down
to John Sherman, when speaking Of
maintaining the gold standard by is.
suing bonds, ETC., don't call it by that
name but under the better sounding
phrase of maintaining the credit of the
government. And as for these extra
revenues they are made necessary by
the issuing Of bonds and increase of
the national debt to maintain the gold
reserve and increase the interest

Mr.. r. W. TURNER, of Mankato,
Kansas, one Of the leading free silver
republicans, of Kansas, who was consul
to Spain under Harrison, makes some
remarks on the Mexican silver dollar
agitation in this wise: 1.-The references
made to Mexico by the single gold
standard people are absolutely ridicu-
lOus to every man of intelligence. In
the first place Mexico is now more pros.
porous than ever before, but if such
we're not the case it would argue moth
ing against free coinage. If the argu-
ments made about Mexico by the sim
gle standard people are entitled to
consideration, why is it not an answer
complete to say, "You single gold stan
dard people are trying to reduce the
laboring man of the United States to
the condition. of the Egyptian fellah
who in that gold standard country
works for five cents u day, or to the
condition of the Turk who in his gold
standard country works for a few cop
pers a day, or to the condition of the
Spaniard who in that gold standard
country receives on an average for IL
hours work 20 cents, or to the condi-
ton Of the Portuguese, who in that
gold standard country receives for a
days work of IL hours, II cents per
day. Portugal adopted the gold stand.
ard in 1853, and since that time her
national debt has increased 100 per cent;
her per cent gold bonds are now sell
ing in London at 26t, while Mexico's
silver bonds are selling at 964. Ar
mour offered so cents worth of meat
and a Mexican dollar for an American
silver dollar. A short grass butcher
goes him one better and offers so cents
worth of meat and $3.50 in Portuguese
gold per cent bonds and will stand
bv his offer even if Mckinley is elected,
will Armour stand by his If Bryan is
elected?n

THERE is considerable inquiry among
certain classes of good business citizens
Of Hutchinson, why the News gave no
report of Saturday nights meeting in
the court house. That speech was
worth reporting and the crowd that
listened was worthy of any body's

The following is the apportionment:

GENERAL GRANTS son. Jessie Grant
has become a populist. He says he
can not endure the financial plank of
the St. Louis platform. If his father
were resurrected he surely would not
recognize the party of his old utilization.
Hutchinson gazette. [volume] (Hutchinson, Kan.) 1895-1902, 1896-09-10

PROBABLY TIE best campaign invest
ment made by Mckinley henchmen was
that paid for the importation of gold
during the last few weeks. Without it
another bond issue would have been a
necessity to maintain the gold standard
and that would be rather bad object
lesson just now before election.

VERMONT went republican. Well
yes, and Mark Hanna and his chirpers
are talking about the loyalty of the
Vermonters. They are almost as loyal
to republicanism as the democrats of
Alabama we're to democracy and as an

the other.

S4RAH BERNH4RDr COMING.
Will Appear in the Hyperion With Her
Company March 10.


The people of New Haven are to ex-
perience a rich treat. The greatest
actress in the world has been engaged
by Manager Bunnell to appear in the
Hyperion in one of her famous pieces,
probably "Gismonda."
Several weeks ago Nine. Bernhardt's
manager received a liberal offer from
AR. G.. B. Bunnell. who very much de-
sired to secure Nine. Bernhardt for
one evenings entertainment. The man
ager stated that he would not visit any
city unless given a guarantee of $4,000
for each performance, and it is not his
custom to stop in cities as small as New
Haven. Mr.. Bunnell was so persistent,
however. that the manager finally con-
scented to come. and although the guar
antee is a small fortune IN itself it is
not probable that Mr. Bunnell will eX-
perience any loss.
There is no actress that New Haven
people so much desire TO see as Nine.
Bernhardt, and they will fill the Hype-
rion to its utmost capacity.

Liquor Dealers Meeting.

The quarterly meeting of the New
Haven Retail Liquor Dealers associa-
ton was held in Elks' hall yesterday
afternoon.
A committee of fifteen was appointed,
representing the wards of the town and
the borough of West Haven and the
town of Branford. This committee will
be known as the Investigating Com
mittee," and it's duties will be to see
all persons interested, including soda
water men, cigar dealers and bottlers,
and urge upon them the necessity of
organization.
President Kelleher is authority for
the statement that nothing was said
at the meeting concerning clubs. He
said that a special meeting would oe
called to consider the matter.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

1.-THE Private Secretary" that ideal
comedy of William Gillette's, and his
masterpiece, is this afternoon and even
ing the attraction. The production is
similar in every detail to that seen
lately at the American theater New
York, and has the same conscientious
artists to portray it's various charac-
ter parts Mr.. Dan Packard, who heads
the cast, essayed the role made famous
by it's author-actor, and his conception
does not differ much from the original
vet it shows beauties and creates laugh
ter where it did not seem possible for
it's creator to provoke the same. Mr..
Packard's chief assistant is Mr.. James
w. Bankson, than whom few young
men present more dramatic fire. Mr..
Bankson essays the part of the spend
thrift young Douglass Cattermole. In
so doing he naturally plays the sup
posed new secretary who teaches the
daughters of the house more than is
supposed they should learn, notably
love, and it is claimed they learned it,
too. Others in the organization are
Forbes Curtis, John Hines, Ethel Tot
ten, Helen Dunbar and Nita Sykes.
The play, goes on the stage in Manager
Bunnell's usually excellent manner. AS
this is the first time it is ever seen
at popular prices it is drawing large
houses.
The Grand presents on the first three
nights of next week Glen McDonough's
masterpiece, sThe Prodigal Father,
one Of the most successful farce COM
edies now being played before the pub
lie. 1.-THE PHodigal Father is brimful
of lively situations and bright dialogue.
The jokes, witticisns and pleasantries
set one into a continual roar of laugh
ter. Many new and novel specialties,
medleys, songs and dances are intro
duced by some of the best vaudeville
artists on the American stage Matt
nees Tuesday and Wednesday.

In Honor of Caleb Ludington of Fair

A birthday party was given in honor
of Mr.. Caleb L. Ludington, one of the
well known and influential citizens of
Fair Haven, at his residence, 1872 Quin-

BOVini1le

DR.. w. E. S. Preston, House
Physician of the "House of Rest
for Consumptives, of fremont,
N. Y, says, 81 have never known
case where the stomach has
rejected Bovinine. In cases of
collapse, so common among con-
sumptives, we always use it."
Bovinine being easy to take, and
quick of assimilation and a won
derful food product, at once
starts on its mission of creating
strength, flesh and blood. 1t
tones up the vital organs and by
thus invigorating them, enables
them to throw off disease and
gives to the sufferer a new lease
of life where such a thing is
possible.
