SOUND MONEY.
Your fellow citizen,
r. w. MONROE.

What is sound money IL is
good money. Silver and gold have
been good money from the founda
ton of this government. They
have therefore been sound money.
The Democratic party has always
been a hard money party. Silver
and gold are hard money. They
are good money. They are sound
money. The Democratic party is
not now and never has been A
mono-metallIc party. The people
of New York, controlled by the i'm
mense capital of tho State, are per
haps gold mono-metallist. We are
told that the Democratic party can.
not win the election without New
York. If gold mono. metallic
plank is pu5 into the Democratic
platform We may carry New York,
but we may lose the election. The
mono metallists could not now
carry state west Of tho Allegheny
mountains. Tho Republican lead.
ers realize this, hence the McKin.
ley straddle. The st. Louis con.
vention will fake the question; the
Republican platform will be de-
luslOn, cheat and "a fraud. What
will the Democratic party do? 1t
must do one of two things, either
declare for gold mono-metallsm or
declare for hard money, silver and
gold bi -metallism and be true 20
It's first principles. There must be
no taking, no humbugging and no
living. 1t is not question Of what
we must do to carry the next cleo.
ton, it is a question Of what we
must do to be honest. The next
coming election will not be the only
coming election IN the Providence
Of God. The liars may win Tho
next election, they are claiming the
election now but they will event.
uallY have their part in the lake
which burneth.-. Wetzel Democrat.

grand concert which is to take place at

the seats have been sold-though there are
some excellent seats stlll on sale-and
everything points to a most brilliant and
successful Inauguration Of the Metropoli-
tan series.
The programme. which was published in

artistic standard than has ever been at
tanned heretofore.
Nine. Lillian N0rdica. who comes TO us

equally great In cratorio as in opera or
concert. and Signor De Macchi being the
celebrated italian pianist. who is making
his first tour of this country.
To-nights programme, being somewhat
lengthy, the concert will begin promptly
at SIS. and IL is earnestly desired that

Nine Nordica viii wear the celebrated
diamond tiara. which was presented 10
her IA New York last April. during a per-
Torrance Of ''Lohengrin." Her jewels
viii be pearls. turquoises. ana diamonds.

Of ill-health will but too often idly, and
without an effort, await the approach OF
death. There is but one way 10 meet and
overcome the deadly disease, consumption.
1t is 10 grasp the best weapon at hand and
valiantly beat down the barriers of disease.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the best and only sure weapon to use III bat
ting with consumption. 1t cures oo per
cent of all cases. II purihes and builds up
the blood, and drives out the disease germs.
The lungs cannot long remain diseased thai
are constantly renewed byrich, red, arterial
blood of the best quality. When the lungs
are supplied with pure blood, the germs OF
consumption are soon rendered harmless.
The Discovery also contains elemerte
that steady and strengthen the nerves, and
il is the best medicine for those suffering
from loss of sleep, brain fag and overwork.
Thousands have testified TO the great Dene-
fits received from this wonderful medicine.
Miss Mary Whitman, of East Dickinson,
Franklin Co. n. Y, writes. For nearly ten
months have had bad cough, and instead OF
getting better, ii grew worse, until ] was ad-
vised BY friend to try DR.. Pierce's Golden Med,

to me nothing would give relief only death. MY
parents were anxious about me, and was sad
TO have consumption. 1 tried your medicines
and before had taken many doses there was
great change. When the secoud bottle was
empty am thankful 10 say had no cough and
was great deal stronger. Many thanks TO the

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1896-09-23

The author Of campaigning in South
Africa and Egypt" gives pertinent
illustration Of the virtue there is in
necessity. He had been asked by o
friendly Boer in Africa to go out shoot.
ing. Accordingly, he writes, took a
rifle and q bag Of cartridges and set out
for the appointed spot. When met my
friend. ne said:
"what have you got in that bag
your dinner?'
NO" l answered, Cartridges. /"
Whereupon he roared with laughter.
"YOu Englishmen must be very rich, ="
said he. They cost sixpenoe apiece
here
"Where are yours:" asked.
Elm this" he answered, tapping his
double barreled rife
"YOu don't intend to shoot much?"
1.-Two spring buck are all l can carry. -
"SuppOse you miss!''
"NobOdy misses when u cartridge
costs sixpence.
There was something instructive in
the remark. 1t perhaps proved why the
Beers had, in 1881, beaten the Eng.
lish, for the Roer, unwilling to waste
his ammunition, will aim and take
down his rifle u dozen times, until he j.
satisfied that he is going to get some
thing for his cartridge.
On the occasion III question my friend
got his two bucks, while / fired five
cartridges and got one.

Tho Advantaxe Of an Accident.

"The small size of the screw" says
u noted shipbuilder, ''is not due to the
perception of any inventor Of its greater
effect as compared with larger one,
but purely to accident. When first en-
gagged i'll the machinery business, screws
for steamers were made rs large as
possible, it being the theory that the
greater the diameter the higher the
speed.
"a vessel was sent to sea with screw
SO large that it was deemed best to cast
each blade in two parts and then weld
them together. During u storm all three
blades Of the propeller broke at the
welding, reducing the diameter by more
than two thirds To the surprise of the
captain the vessel shot forward at a
speed such as had never been attained
