A CHECKERED
CAREER

Is as full of variety as our stock of
colored shirts is of money-saying
chances. It's dead certainty that not
to buy your colored shirts here is to
expose yourself to the necessity OF
paying more for the same thing else
where. In fact, YOU cannot find any
hing in the city to compare with our
new stock of colored shirts received
this week. The white ones with col
ored bosoms. at 81 and SIPS, are such
as other dealers ask s175 and 81 for,
and they would be worth it, as they are
beauties. If you want the very latest,
remember you must buy it here. The
price is so small that it will make the
thinest pocket-book feel as comfortable
as United States senator after wine
dinner.

and they cannot take it out of it,
Referring 10 the enthusiasm shown
by the people of Des Moines, Mr..
Bryan expressed his appreciation of
the fact that the enthusiasm was not
for him personally. but for the cause
which he represented. Continuing he
said:
We'll, you may feel interested. be-
cause, my friends, we have reached a
great turning point in the history of
events. Upon the history OF this ma
ton may depend the action of the civ
ilized world upon the money question
Upon the action of this state may de-
pend the action of this nation, and ON
the action Of a single individual here
may depend the action of this state
Grave are the responsibilities of citi-
zenship, and never more grave than
now: burt can simply appeal to you
to do your duty as YOU see it and then
stand UP and take the consequences be-
fore your fellow men,
Amidst cheers that followed his re-
marks Mr.. Bryan FASTENED from the
tabernacle and was driven to the cor
ner of Sixth street and Grand evenqe.
where arrangements had been made for
an overflow meeting. Governor Boies
accompanied Mr.. Bryan. When thew
reached the place the crowd was 50
IITEF anu 50 USiSSly packed around the
platform that had been erected that
they were unable to reach 1T, and Mr..
Bryan spoke from his carriage His
address was brief, but lit left the crowd
in very good humcr. cheer after cheer
being given the speaker.
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were then driven
to their hotel and it was midnight when
they were permitted to enjoy seclusion
and retire. Mr.. Bryan could not com
cead his pleasure at his recept'o in
this city. His movements about the
city from the time he left the train
until he reached the hotel, after the
ovations were over, was through con-
tnuouS lines of cheering enthusiasts.

MRS. LEASE IS CONFIDENTIAL.

If lit is sometimes a good thing for
people to see themselves as others see
them, lit is also a good thing for the
world occasionally to see people as they
see themselves. There is no more IA
nous, OF notorious, woman in America
than Mrs. Mary Ellen Lease, unless it
be Lydia. E. Pinkham. Every reader
of newspapers is familiar with her
form and features through pen sketch
es. OF course these pictures are as
various as the writers who drew them.
What the public has long wanted is
Mrs. Leases idea of Mary Ellen. At
last this long felt want has been sup
piled. The lady was recently in New
York and was interviewed by a repor-
ter. After denouncing certain cartoon
caricatures which had lately appeared,
she said; My dressmaker tells me 1

SPAIN AND THE UNITED STATES.

Mr.. Harris Taylor, our minister to
Spain, and the Duke of Tetuan, Span
ism minister of foreign affairs, have had
an interview at San Sebastian. 1t is
said to have been very friendly indeed.
There is no reason why it should have
been otherwise, unless Spain was in
clined to take umbrage where none
was intended.
The administration has done all that
Spain could reasonably have asked, so
far as performing its duty to that coun-
try is concerned Some filibusterars
have left our shores and reached Cuba
in safety. That was almost inevitable.
That more have not left them is the
surprising thing. The sympathy of
the American people is with the Gu
bans, and not with the Spanish. Our
close proximity with Cuba affords a
most convenient base of operatio for
flibusterers, and that fact, and the
fact of the sympathy of the people
for the revolutionists, has made it
very difficult for the government to
prevent the departure of unlawful ex-
petitions. The policy of the govern
ment having been not to accord the
Cubans belligerent rights, it became
its duty to enforce the laws against
f1libusterers.
1t may be doubted whether Spain
has addressed any memorandum to
the powers on the Cuban question.
Even if she has she would hardly
make complaint in it against the
United States, as such complaint would
be a confession of weakness, while it
is most unlikely that any European
power would interfere in her behalf if
she did, 1t would be matter between
her and this country solely. Spanish
statesmen are usually accomplished
diplomats and would scarcely make
the false step of making complaint to
the powers when such complaint would
be sure to go UNDECIDED.

THE "THREA1'' OF FREE SILVER

The Boston Herald says that the
United States are getting a very costly
object lesson on the blighting influence
of the free coinage of silver. It SAYS it
is true free coinage has not vet ar
rived, but it threatens to descend upon
the country next year. and the mere
threat of its appearance has inflicted
sT1evous injury upon American bust
ness. If they do these things in a.
green tree, it asks, what shall be done
In the dry? eff free coinage has
proved so disastrous while it is still
only menace" says the Herald, I'VE
shrink from measuring the depth of
ruin into which it would plunge this
country if it became an actually"
This is clearly a case where the fear
OF i'll is very much greater than the
III feared. So far as we know there
never was presidential campaign in
which every attempt was not made to
alarm and brighten the people so that
they would vote to keep things as they
are, no matter how much they needed
changing. 1t is to a certain extent the
philosophy of Hamlet that it is "better
to suffer the ills we have than to fy
to others we know not Of" All over
the land things are about as bad as
they can be; it is possible to make
them worse, but this possibility de-
ponds upon the continuance of the
present gold standard and a refusal to
restore silver to its proper place in our
monetary system. Free silver is not an
experiment in his country; we had it
from the foundation of the government
until 1873. And who can point to a
time in all those years when it was an
injury to the country?
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-08-14

ready the paramount issue this speech
would make it so. 1t cannot fail to
have a very decided influence upon the
campaign right in the heat of the gold
sentiment. MetaphoricaNy speaking,
Mi. Bryan has struck the shield of the
enemy as it hung upon a tree: but
where is the champion to issue forth,
accept the challenge and defend the
shield?
This speech opens the campaign, and
opens it most ausDiciously for the
cause of free silver and prosperity for
the people. 1t means an aggressive
campaign ON the part of the Democrat
ic party, and such a campaign always
rallies the people to the standard of the
party making it.

SILLY TALK BY GOULD and SAGE.


The New York Journal says that
Gould and Sage announce they will
not extend the lines of the elevated
railway if Bryan is elected That, of
course, is their affair It is simply
an attempt en- their part to frighten
and bulldoze the voters of New York
into voting against Mr.. Bryan It will
not succeed. There is much depreca-
ton of the drraying of the masses
against the classes; and such arraying
must always be deprecated. It turns
legitimate politics into hatred in which
the true merits of any question are lost
sight Of. But does not the very kind
Of talk which Gould and Sage have
been INDUCING in engender this class
hatred? They threaten to use the
great power of their immense wealth
to coerce people in their politics. They
would deny that this is the case, al
leging that their threatened action
would be made necessary in order to
protect themselves from the conse-
quences that would result from Mr.
Bryan's election. 1t is an old, old story
and is not told for the first time this
year by any means. Why do these two
mean threaten? To make the means of
communication in Greater New York
as inadequate to accommodate the peo-
pie as possible. They may not know it,
but they invite municipal ownership
of the elevated railroads. They may
be able to buy up corrupt city officials,
but they cannot buy up whole people.
If Gould and Sage and others of their
class did but know it their bulldozing
talk begets nothing but hatred this
year. 1t is arousing the people to an
ger which will not be easily allayed.

TALES OF THE DAY.
Cbicn-n Justice.

Justice Bradwell, fat and comical, pre-
sided over one court at the Armory this
morning, and moved down the evil-doers
rignt and left.
Justice Bradwell, is quick and snappy.
He gets through with a case much
sooner than the average police justice,
and his decisions have flavor of deep
originality. Among the first prisoners
brought before him this morning was a
eatcn OF mixed colors, captured in an
opium den. There were nine in the bunch
and eight of them solemnly swore that
they We're not smoking opium and never
roied pill in all their lives. The court
rolled his eyes in utter amazement and
urgent incredulity
Tell me- he said. wasn't there any
body smoking in that placer"
And the ninth prisoner. little black
neSress, piped up:
Il was, yo' honah! I went down dar
to smoke an I smoked sah.''
The court looked az her solemnly.
Misguided wretch" he exclaimed. 80

THE PRIDE OF THE COUNTRY SIDE.

Oh! Phyllis is surprising fair.
| know no maid that's fairer;
Her beauty is beyond compare
No beauty could be rarer;
She scorneth tickle fashions guide,
And russell is her gown
Yet she's the pride of the country side,
And the envy of the town!
She is a queen we all declare
Though no crown she possesses,
Beyond wealth of rich brown hair,
That hangs in dainty tresses
Her matchless eyes have long outvied
The gems in monarchs crown
And she's the pride of the country side
And the envy of the town.
Her form is full of fairy grace,
Her voice is music mellow,
And, OH the bloom upon her face
Is the red roses fellow
All! he who wins her for his bride
Wins more than wealth, renown--
For she's the pride of the country side
And the envy of the town!
