WINNIPEG, Man, Oct 4.-The oper-
ators' strike on the Canadian Pacific
railroad is not declared off, The COM
pany claims that the men are grad
ually returning to work, but the strik-
ers deny this, and say more were out
today than on any day since the strike
began Today at noon the strikers
went back to work voluntarily from
Brandon to Swift Current, and on the
Canadian end Of the $500 line 1t is
said the trainmen will quit work on
Wednesday unless an amicable ar
rangement is reached by that time.
Delegates from the trainmens brother
hoods will reach Montreal tomorrow

MONTREAL, Oct. 4.-The Canadian
Pacific telegraphers' strike cannot last
much longer, according to the officials
OF the road. They claim that on three
divisions, the Quebec and Ontario. and
from the 500 to Sudbury, everything is
working in first-class shape, and on
other divisions matters are approach
Ing normal condition. Freight is
now being moved in good shape.
Squads of special constables have gone

COMING MILLIONS EVERY MONTH.
What More Can the White Metal
Advocates Ask.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct An re-
ply to letter from the Courier Jour
nal to Secretary Carlisle asking for
information concerning the coinage of
silver, Secretary Carlisle replies in
part as follows:
''F'rom Jan. 1, 1895, to Sept. 80, 1896.
standard silver dollars have been
coined at the minis Of the United
States to the amount of 1882, 512
Since Nov. l, 1893, the date of the re-
peal Of the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act, standard dollars have
been coined to the amount of $17,S69, :
GAL, or more than twice as much as
was coined during the whole period
of our history prior to 1878. The COIN
age of standard silver dollars is going
on every day at our minis and during
the last month it amounted to s., 100
000 About the same amount will be
coined during the present month. The
seigniorage, or gain, which has been
added to the circulation on account
Of the coinage since Nov. 1, 1898, is
about s5,700,000, and the seigniorage
or gain in the coinage Of last month
was about $500, 600.
The coinage is being done under au-
thority conferred upon the secretary
by the third section Of the act of July
IA, 1890. which provides: That the
secretary of the treasury shall each
month coin 100000 ounces of the sill
yer bullion purchased under the pro-
visions of this act into standard sill
yer dollars until the 1st day Of july.
1891, and after that time he shall coin
Of the silver bullion purchased under
the provisions of this act as much as
may be necessary to provide for the
redemption of the treasury notes here
in provided for. and any gain or
SeigniOrage arising from such COMA pe
shall be accounted for and paid into
the treasury"
This law Is still in force. no part Of
the act having been repealed, except
the clause which directed the secretary
of the treasury to continue the pur-
chase Of silver bullion and issue treas
ury notes in payment for it and the
coinage is being made from the bullion
belonging to the government purchased
before the repeal of that clause"

The Issue in Pure silver,

Stop bothering your head about the
figures sixteen to one, leave the gold
standard out Of the question, for there
is no direct issue upon it, and consider
the real issue, silver. A lump OF sill
YER of a certain size, 371A grains in
weight, is to-day worth SO cents. The
Bryan proposition is that the govern
ment shall stamp 1t dollar. That
would le fiat money making of the same
sort as the governments setting its
printing presses to work and turning
out without limit dollars Of paper. 1t
is fiat dishonesty. 1t is pregnant with
trouble for every man, laborer or capi-
talist, who lives by industry, and it
would leave to the United States the
hurt of lasting mistrust in the mind of
every industrial investor and leader,
American or foreign. Beat it as the
American voter beat the populists four
years ago-by ten to one.

IA

The government pays about $780,
100000 year to pensioners. The pay
ments last year were Sal 1898, 800.
Every one of these dollars was worth
100 cents and equal to dollar in gold.
IF the policy of the Chicago platform
end party should be made effective by
legislation, every dollar thereafter re-
ceiyed by a pensioner would be worth
only SO cents. 1t would be called a dol
lar, but in the purchase of a pension
er's supplies it would go only so far as
SO cents 60 now. The buying power OF
the pensioners monthly allowance, like
that of the depositor's money, still to be
paid out of the savings bank, and the
value Of policies to be paid by life in
surance companies, would be reduced
by nearly one-half.-N. Y. Times.

FREQ Silver Doctors Disagree.

Presidential Candidate w. ]. Bryan
declared in his speech in New York
city: e'T am firmly convinced that by
opening our mints to free and unlimited
coinage at the present ratio (16 to y we
can create demand for silver which
will keep the price of silver bullion at
$1.29 per ounce, measured in gold"
Judge w. S. Mccain, of Little Rock,
free silver leader in Arkansas, differs
from Mr. Bryan in his Interpretation of
the popocratic platform. 81 am some
times asked" he says, "if believe the
reconciliation Of silver would increase
its value SO as to make the bullion in
silver dollar equal to the present gold
dollar. answer no. If thought SO, I
would not waste time advocating the
restoration OF the unlimited coinage of
silver. The sole object of remonetizing
silver, as l understand it. is to secure a
cheaper dollar with which to measure
and regulate prices"
Here are two eminent financial doc
tors who agree in prescribing big doses
of sixteen to one pills, but widely disa-
gree as to the results of the medicine.
When the leaders of the free coinage agi-
tation differ as to the effects of their
scheme, how can they expect the people
to believe that they know what they are
talking about?

A Bad Old E7rmhna.

The Denver Republican calls for more
money as the cure-all for the peoples
woes. "They must" it says, "go back
to the good old American policy of BIZ
metallism, under which the country en-
joyed such extraordinary prosperity
from l792 until the complete demoneti-
zation Of silver" Oh, those good old
days." when less than 100000 silver
dollars were coined in the 81 years
from 1892 to 1873-less than in the first
six months Of the present year-and
when no man ever saw silver dollar
except as curiosity! Never once in all
this time did the country have as much
money per capita as 1t now has. Never
once, except during the war, were
wages SO high and prices so satisfactory
as in the IL years following the resump-
tion of specie (gold) payments in 1878.
The talk Of "good old times" is simply
bad old humbug.
The Green Forest tribune., 1896-10-22
Some Facts for Farmers.

In 1877 the average value of the hay
crop in the United States was $3.50 per
ton. The following year it dropped to
S7'2o, and in 1879, the year next ensuing,
it jumped up to So.32 per ton.
Again: In 1891, when this country
was firmly on gold basis, the average
value of the hay crop was $8. 40 per ton
In 1899 it fell to $6.73 per ton, and in
1893 1t rose to $S.69 per ton. Last year
the average value was 1856 per ton.
Assuming that the fall in prices is
due to the "crime of 1873" how are
these fluctuations to be accounted for e?
VIII some Bryanite explain also why it
is that the average value of the hay crop
per ton was greater in 1895, when we
were on a gold basis, than it was in
1878, when gold was at premium?
Hay has undoubtedly declined in price
since 1878, but why should it not have
done so? Apart from cheaper methods
of production and cheaper rates of
transportation, the annual hay crop in
creased from 25,085,1o0 tons in 1879 to
65,766,15S tons In 1893 Last year it
amounted to about ~ ,ooo,oC0
AT the same time the number Of
horses in the United States increased
only from 9,222,470 in 1873 to Is. .s93,3ls
in 1905. 1t is estimated that there ara
nearly 100000 fewer horses in this
country to-day than there were three
years ago.
These plain facts and figures should
not be hard to comprehend. Let the
farmer study them before he allows
himself to be hoodwinked by free silver
Gemagogism.
The Green Forest tribune., 1896-10-22
Conditions Prior to 1879.

Some of the free coinage men still
say that all they want is to restore
the conditions that existed prior to
1878" In 1878 the total worlds pro-
duction of silver was 61,000,0oO ounces
and the silver in dollar was worth
$1.o4 in gold. Last year the worlds
product of silver was 165 100000 ounces
and the silver in dollar was worth
only so 7-1o cents. VIII the silver
miners restore the production of 1873
as the first step toward restoring the
conditions?"

"The Stamp OF the Government"

at is true" confesses ,he silver men,
that the bullion value of the metal in
silver dollar is only SO cents. But put
the government stamp On 1t by free
coinage and you will raise the value OF
it to 100 cents"
Senator John P. Jones, of Nevada,
one of the most conspicuous and most
uble of all the silver advocates. speak
ing on April 1, 1874. said; ''The value
of gold is not affected by the stamp Of
the government
Everyone who has considered the
subject knows that this latter state
ment is true. The metal in gold dol
lar is worth exactly 100 cents, whether
it be stamped by the governmento or not
Melt the dollar and run it into any other
form and it's value remains unchanged.
If the stamp Of the government does
not change the value Of one metal, is IL
reasonable to suppose it would change
that of another? Can it do any mose
for silver than it does for gold? No
The stamp of all the governments in
the world cannot make SO cents worth

Fads in Medicine.

There arc fads in medi-
cines as we'll as everything
else and a new thing frequently
sells for short time simply be-
cause it is new. But in medicine
as in nothing else the people de-
mand and will bo satisfied only
with positive, absolute merit.
The fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla
has stood it's ground against all
competition, and it's sales have
never wavercd but have remained
steadily at the top, demonstrates,
beyond any doubt, the intrinsic
virtues Of this medicine. The new
things have come and gone but
Hoods sarsapasilla rests upon the
solid foundation OF the absolute
merit and its powers to cure, and
it sales continue to be the larg est
in the world.

Have They cornered the Copper Cent

a majority OF the letters from the
working men nyour columns claim that
gold has appreciated in value since 1873
and that this appreciation has been
caused oy the wicked bankers who have
cornered al the gold. Has anyone sug-
gested that these wicked bankers have
cornered all the cents? In 1873 it re-
quired 129 cents to purchase only one
ounce of silver. To-day it requires only
6S cents to purchase this same one
ounce of silver. In 1879 it required ! 25
cents TO purchase one bushel of wheat.
To-day 63 cents will purchase one bush
ell Of wheat. And yet 100 cents will pur-
chase the same amount of gold to-da.? as
it could in 1873. Clearly. then, it is
this bad little copper cent that has
caused all our hard times and not the
gold. Let us compel all of our creditors
to accept five mills instead of ten for
one cent.-Common Sense, in N. J.

III the confederate army, recalls that in
January, 1865, he tried to buy a hand
kerchief in Meridian, Miss, but found
he could not afford it, the price lin con-
federate money! having been $500, and
as compromise he bought paper coll

collars and handlSerchiefs are super
