On Saturday last, for the first time in
the history of this region, memorial ser.
vices were held, and the day observed as

The National hotel, j. A. Wilson pro-
prietor, is being renovated and remodeled
in elegant style. The rooms are being

This improvement is having a happy

During the Crmpaign OF 1895.

Everywhere there is a demand for news.
The public is continually crying for in
formation, and the only question is
"Where can we get the best at the low
est cost?:" THE HERALD is now pre-
pairing to increase its news service in a
very material way, and hopes soon to
give its readers a much better paper they
have been receiving.
In order however that the public may be
benefited, that each subscriber may re-
ceive more reading matter, especially rel
alive to the doings Of the outside world,
we have arranged with various publishers
to give our readers a metropolitan daily
or weekly, of their own choosing, togeth-
er with the NEIHART HERALD, at little
more than the cost of one paper. The
rates published below are per annum, in
all cases including Jul own paper with
the one indicated. To new or old
subscribers the same rates will hold. but
in every case, cash must accompany the
order. 1t will be observed that all these
papers advocate the Free coinage of
silver. Also that each political party is
represented by n or more publications,
and that the list is filled with the best
metropolitan papers, representative of
the western idea.
Old OF new subscribers to the NE1-
HART HEARALD many receive either of
following publications in addition
by paying for both papers at the
following prices:

years. The continued dry weather

clock is standard time and is twenty

seems like the old man Confidence has

way to raise up new man by that
name is to give us what we had prior
to 1S73-a free coinage OF gold and
silver.

The Time For Building

Up the system is at this season.
The cold weather has made unusual
drains upon the vital forces. The
blood has become impoverished and
impure, and all the functions of the
body suffer in consequence. Hoods
Sarsaparilla is the great builder,
because it is the One True Blood
Purifier and nerve tonic.

DR.. Bender comes to us highly
recommended as painless dentist and

what it would take to pay it:

1894.
$ S89,3l8,3SO l,i742Si,229 81
Thus we see under a single gold
standard it takes nearly 125,000,000
more bushels of wheat to pay the ma
tional debt than in 1873, while the
debt has decreased nearly two-thirds.
How does this strike the farmer?
Had gold been subjected to the
same legislation since 1873 that silver
has, the people who are clamoring
against 50-cent silver dollars would
be harping on 50-cent gold dollars.
Deposed by law as primary or re-
demption money in this country, and
then followed up by the Latin Union
and other European countries, the
only wonder is that it has stood the
test as we'll as it has. Stricken down
by stroke of the pen, let us restore it
in the same manner, and then we will
not hear any more of 50-cent dollars

ducts. All this talk is just on par
with the wild tariff talk that our fac
tories cannot survive without pro-
lection larger than the entire cost of
all the labor employed. For pretec-
ton, no tariff can be justified which
to any extent exceeds the difference
in wages. So it is with this gold cry.
1t is false and vicious and is only for
the benefit of
MONEY AND MONEY MEN.
Equally false and vicious is the
cry that the silver dollar, under free
coinage, will only be sixty-cent
dollar. How can it be sixty-ceut
dollar if it pays as much debt and
buys as much as gold dollar, and
when stamped a dollar and made
legal tender it will always be worth
dollar and buy as much as gold.

of all people who labor or raise crops
for sale and for all manufacturers of
all kinds of goods. Let the people

RHYTHM OF NlAeARA's ROAR.

Musical Notes Heard In the Great Water
falls Oratorio.
Eugene Thayer, the well known organ
ist has published an analysis of the music
of Niagara falls. In an article in Trinity
Record he says
1T had ever been my belief that Mag
ara had not been heard as it should be,
and in this belief turned my steps hither-
ward What did, hear The roar of Nj
agara? l heard nothing but a perfectly
constructed musical tone clear, definite
and unapproaohable in its ma jestic perfec-
ton, "A complete series of tones all uniting
in one grand and noble unison, as in the
organ,
Mr. Thayer then describes at some
length the compound nature of given
tone and illustrates the overtones or par
tials of the lowest G of the 30 foot pipe of
the organ Then he continues:
Il had long had suspicion that l
should hear all this at Niagara when her
wonderful voice should first greet my ears
1t was just rs | had supposed. How should
prove all this? My first step was to visit
the beautiful Iris island. otherwise known
as Goat island. My next step was to stand
on Luna island, above the central fall and
on the west side of the American fall
proper. l went on the extreme eastern
side of the island in order to get the full
force of the larger fall and sat Smong the
rapids. Next | went to the Three Sisters
island.
with more or less variation of pitch at
these and many other points, l heard
everywhere the notes of the chord of q,
only four octaves lower.
Il arrived at my conclusion both theo-
retically and practically. Let me first call
attention to the third and fourth notes, ID
and G..
The ground note &, was so deep, so
grand, so mighty that | never could realize
it or take it into my thought or hearing,
but these two tones, only four octaves
lower, We're everywhere, with power
which made itself felt as well as heard
but. it will he replied these two notes
were too slow to be detected by the sense
of hearing. How did | determine their
pitch?
Il first caught the harmonic notes above
them that We're definite in pitch, and then,
counting the number of vibrations of these
lower two notes, easily determined their
distance below.
And here comes curious feature
which proves that Niagara gives tone
and not Il roar. The seventh note, the
interval of the tenth, was of power and
clearness entirely out of proportion to the
harmonics as usually heard I'm the organ.
Were the tone of Niagara Is mere noise
this seventh note would he either weak OF
confused ar absent altogether
What is Niagara's rhythm? Its beat is
just once per second. Here is our unit Of
time-the chrunometer of God. "
