MEXICAN SILVER.

you bet I'm for silver, but l won't
vote to let this cheap Mexican silver
come to our Mint is the remark n
often hears in Carson when a gold
bug is trying to excuse his course
The men who excuse their treachery
to this State on these grounds. should
know if they do not that if all the
available silver in the world was
dumped into the United States, it
would only result in $50 Per capita
and even with this amount there
would still be insufficient money to
handle business. II only American
silver were coined it would not help
anyone except silver producers and
people 10 their immediate vicinity.
Men who affect to fear the influx Of
Mexican silver are those who have
been unable 10 realize the terribl"
scarcity of money in tue United
States.
Mn who do so realize II, openly say
that the coming Of all the silver in the
world, in the United States viii only
partially relieve the stringency, and
it will take a further issue Of green
backs to give the people all the money
they need.

The Journey Of Bryan eastward is
a triumphal march. The bankers
and corporation managers, the stock
gamblers and railway managers do
not turn out to welcome him, but the
men who toll at the forge, the tillers
Of the soil, and the masses who sweat
IN order that they may live, are flock

The great horror that is now taking
possession Of the capitalists Is
that the "Silver Craze" will lower the
wages of labor so that they will have

The cause of discomfort, of strike and
low wages has been almost untouched in
national politics. Ths great parties are too
cowardlv to make it a national issue. That
cause is the continued influx of foreign
labor. Americans are driven from their
employment and wages go steadily down
because of this steady stream across the sea.
This we consider is Americas great, st dan
ger today. 1t is the menace to the Ameri-
can laborer, native or now naturalized, and
it is the reliance of the Carnegies and mon
eyed interests in every attempt TO lower
wages. Shut down on it!-Inyo (Cal.) Re

The duchesse dressing table is a treas
ure whose value many women who have
known its comfort would find it hard TO
compute. 1t is SO low that its owner
may sit before its mirror and "do" her
hair with comfort, and it is easily made
at home by simply saving off the legs
of pine stand and covering it with
pink or blue silesia, with al outer COW

cheesecloth embroidered in wild roses
or forgetmenots to match the underlying
hue. The mirror may be one of the old
fashioned mahogany or brass framed
glasses, or common wooden frame may
be covered and artistically draped with
the materials used ON the table. A lace

and ivory or silver backed brushes as the
owner can muster, complete q charming

Duchess of Albany's Work.

The Duchess of Albanys knowledge
of London and its environments will
soon be much superior to that possessed
by most residents in the metropolis. Her
royal highness goes everywhere-hop
picking i'll Kent, distributing prizes in
Hoxton, presiding at health classes in
the west end. One day she inspects the
machinery of the Tower bridge and the
next witnesses the antics of the Somalis
at the Crystal palace. Yesterday the
duchess and her children went to the
Royal Albert docks. The royal party
embarked on board the Bismarck, be-
longing to the Victoria Steamboat asso-
citation, at Westminster bridge and was
received at the docks by Mr.. H r. Will
liams, manager. Visits were in turn
paid TO the Peninsular and Oriental's
Caledonia, in the dry dock, and to the
tobacco warehouse. Luncheon was served
on board the British India steamer Col
conda, under the presidency of Sir Ed
wyn Sandys Dawes. The Lascars of the
vessel were drawn up on parade. Her
royal highness expressed herself highly
pleased with the visit. -London News.

College Women and Public Life.

If il be asked why college women
marry less than others. it may very
safely be answered. to begin with, that
it is not because they crave more ex-
citing and public life, for the majority
of them are schoolteachers. In the reg
lister of the association, address after adj
dress is at some school. Nearly SO per
cent of the California branch are teach
ers The association includes but "a
physicians and half dozen lawyers,
preachers and journalists. A few mem
bers are librarians or employees of some
scientific staff. A very few are in indie
pendent business.
The women that write striking books,
that lead in public movements, that ad-
dress great audiences, that explore and
venture, are rarely among them. The
conspicuous exceptions, notably Lucy
Stone and Frances Willard, We're among
the earliest graduates The present type
of college woman is conservative, retir-
ing and more apt TO disappoint expecta-
ton by differing too little than too much
from other respectable, conventional
folk, exactly as college men do. 1t is
probable that in the very general EN-
ployment of college women as teachers
in girls schools lies one effective cause
of celibacy. There is no station in life,
save that of a nun, so inimical to mar
riage as that of resident teacher in a
girls school. THE Marriage Rate of

Reed on Wages.

The truth is that this very question
Of rising wages is what makes a good
many men free traders. People with
fixed incomes think that anything
which rises wages is inimical to them.
Manufacturers who have foreign mar
kets are naturally anxious to have wages
on the foreign standard, and when a
great cocoa manufacturer in Boston and
a great agricultural toolmaker in Phil
adelphia proclaim themselves on the
side of free trade. we find in both cases
large foreign trade and along with it a
desire for foreign wages for their work
