why silver Nus Dropped.

We have been ~ & gold basis. and you
remember it. many Of you. gentlemen,
whose recollection goes back TO those
years, from 1891 TO 1873. Why. do you sup
pose, was ii that at that time silver was
dropped out of coinage England had in
1916 adopted the gold standard. Germany
in 1871 had gone back TO all intents and
purposes to the gold standard. That was
not all. The whole world the commercial
nations OF the world. had been considering
that question whether gold or silver would
be the standard Of value. At the monetary
convention in Paris, held in 1867, long
years, you will see. before 1878. twenty
great powers we've represented. There was
Austria Baden, Bavaria. Belgium, Den
mark the United States, France. Great
Britain, Greece, Italy, the Neither
lands, Portugal. Russia, Prussia. Swe-
den, Norway, Switzerland. Turkey
and Wurtenburg, and every one OF
them but the Netherlands. as
but one, voted in 1857 to do away with the
silver standard and adopt the gold stand
ard [Great applauseI and this Mr.. Bryan
is telling the people from one end of the
country to the other that the adoption OF
the gold standard was a conspiracy against
the human race and put every country
which adopted it into slavery to London.
Edmund Burke said that you could not
frame an indictment against whole peo-
pie. Burke could not. but Bryan evident
" can. What do you think of charging
the Representatives of over twenty great
commercial nations which adopted or de-
cided to adopt the gold standard, after full
debate and interchange of views. with en-
tering into a conspiracy against the human
race and shutting the doors Of mercy on
mankind?

Now. what else? They declare in the
PLATFORM ladies and gentlemen, that the
president Of the United States should not
in time Of peace exercise the power given
HIM by the statute of the United States, in
certain emergency, TO issue interest
bearing bonds of the government That IS
intended as condemnation of Mr.. Cleye-
land for issuing within the last two years
two hundred and odd millions of dollars OF
bonds with which TO purchase gold and
maintain the redemption fund in the treas
ury. There are some things connected
with the financial policy Of Mr. Cleveland
in that respect and in others, which from
our standpoint are to be criticised.
think he never ought TO have per
mitted that free trade tariff bill, all tainted
with perfidy and dishOnor, TO become a
statute at all I think he ought to have
held that congress until they had enacted
law which if not protecting American
industries. if not safeguarding the inter-
esrs OF American labor, should al least
have provided revenue enough to meet the
expenses Of the government. Applause
He didn't do it: and when the Supreme
court of the United States declared the
income tax feature Of the law unconstitu-
+ionaI II left the government without ade-
olIate revenue Then, gentlemen, what was
the president Of the United States 10 do?
Tbay saw he should have issued no bonds.
What does that mean? That means
that the gold should all have gone out Of
the treasury: that means that the Tedemp.
-ion fund. which was intended 10 be main
tanned and kept sacred, should have been
scattered 10 the four winds of heaven.
Thai means what else2 1t means the dis
honor of the government Of the United

have refused 10 pay the obligations Of the
government in gold. but should have paid

Treason of the Chicago Conven-

'Tn almost every great transaction Of

There were such in this convention at Chi

Spangled Banner and that there came, as
If borne upon the winds from the shadowy
regions which We may fancy somewhere

A Remarkable Cure for Chronic

In 1862, when I served my country as
private in Company A, 167th Penn

deal of trouble ever since. 1 have tried
a dozen different medicines and several
prominent doctors without any perma-
nent relief. Not long ago friend sent
me sample bottle of Chamberlain's
Cholic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
and after that I bought and took So

am entirely cured. I cannot be thank

THE PUZZLE.
Several Answers Received but No
Correct Solution.

Several Answers Received but No
Correct Solution.
A dozen people were stricken with a
desire to solve the Advertisers carpet
cutting puzzle yesterday morning, but
none of the twelve who sent in their
answers were correct.
One party sent a solution with one
clean cut and set of angles formed
by three distinct cuts, but made without
taking the knife from the paper. While
this makes a square piece when finish
ed, it is hardly in accordance with the
instructions. Another mistake made by
this person, and it is common with the
other eleven, is that the papers sent in
are different in size from the one ap-
pearing in the Advertiser. The idea is
to take the puzzle as printed in the
Advertiser and with two cuts make the
three pieces of paper form an exact
square.

Mosquito Pest.

Chestertown, Nd, has found kero-
sene effective in getting rid of mos
quitoes. After series of tests the peo-
pie were given official nouce that
everybody should pour little coal oil
in rain-barrels, stagnant pools and
wherever water had collected. No
great quantity of oil is required. A
teaspoonful is sufficient for a barrel of
water. The diminution in the number
of mosquitoes was easily noticeable.
and now the pest has been almost
gotten rid of.
