MEASUREMENTS CORRE CTED.

OMAHA, Aug. 25-The "World-Her-
ald,'' in an editorial to morrow morning
addressed "To the Newspapers of
America" will say:
Two falsehoods concerning the
World Herald and Mr.. Bryan are be-
ing so widely circulated and innocently
published that / ask as a matter of
fairness this correction. One falsehood
is the pretense that Mr.. Bryan was con-
nected with the World Herald in 1898,
at the time that this newspaper op-
posed free silver coinage at the present
ratio. Mr.. Bryan did not become editor
Of the World Herald until September,
1894, and at that time the 'WOrld-Her-
ald' openly reversed it's former policy
and came out for free coinage at the
present ratio. The second falsehood is
in attributing the following language to
the World Herald whereas in point of
fact it originated with the New York
sun and was quoted from the New
York Sun by the World Herald ,:
Every one who has money at his dis
posal can protect himself against loss
through free silver by converting his
money into land, houses and merchan-
disc of various kinds. IF, besides, he
borrows more money and uses it for
the purpose he will make a profit on
the transaction at the expense of the
man from whom he borrows.'
&c NJ. HITCHCOCK, Publisher

Grant and many other great leaders,
North and South, has happily come,
and the feeling of distrust and hostility
between the sections is everywhere van
ishing, let us hope never to return.
Nothing is better calculated to give
strength to the Nation at home, in
crease our power and influence abroad,
and add to the permanency and secur-
ity of our free institutions than the res
toration of cordial relations between the
people of all sections and parts of our
beloved country.
IF called by the suffrage of the people
pie to assume the duties of the high
office of President of the United States,
I shall count it a privilege to aid even
in the slightest degree in the promotion
of the spirit of fraternal regard which
should animate and govern the citizens
of every section, State or part of the re-
public. After the lapse of century
since it's utterance, let us at length and
forever after heed the admonitiOn of
WaShington: There should be no
North. no South no East, no West, but
a common country 1t shall be my con-
slant aim to improve every opportunity
to advance the cause of Government by
promoting that spirit of forbearance
and justice which is so essential to our
prosperity and happiness by joining
heartily in all proper efforts to restore
the relations of brotherly respect and
affection which in our early history
characterized all the people of the state.
will be glad to contribute towards
binding in indivisible union the differ
ent divisions of the country, which, in
deed now have every inducement of
sympathy and interest, to weld them
together more strongly than ever /
would rejoice to see demonstrated to
the world that the North and the South
and the East and the West are not sep
arated, or in danger of becoming sep
arated because of sectional or party
differences. The war is long since over:
we are not enemies, but friends and as
friends we will socially and cordially CO.
operate under the approving smile OF
Him who has thus far sustained and
guided us to preserve inViolate our
country's name and honor, its peace and
good order, and it's continued ascend
ency among the greatest Governments

laboring men west on their "harvest'

went out in the early rush of couple

demCralized state of affairs in the wheat

near enough jobs for the exodus
Of workmen and that those 60
ing now will .be glad to get a
chance to get back. Employment agen-

are misrepresenting the situation, in
that the prospective laborers are in

all hands, and that the wages paid are

compensation is less, and the wheat

AN ENGLISH OPINION.

Westminster Gazette Reviews the speech
Of MIR. Bryan.
LONDON, Aug. 14.-The Westminster
Gazette in its financial article refers to
the speech made in Madison Square
Garden, New York, by Mr.. William j.
Bryan, and says:
'Mr. Bryan's speech will certainly
not increase confidence in the minds of
investors.
"It is replete with financial heresies
and will cause investors everywhere to
desire to withdraw their money from
the United States while they are able to
obtain gold in payment for debts.
Should the free silver party be elected
gold will undoubtedly be driven out OF
circulation and substantial premium
would at once be demanded by those
possessing 1t.
i We do not believe that individual
Americans will take advantage Of the
political dishonesty proposed by the
Democrat &c convention whereby even
existing contracts calling for payment
in gold will not be valid when free coin
age is carried.
It is, however, certain that railroad
owing large amounts OF gold debit
would, with the premium on gold. b
