A Joke on the herman nArs.r.

A big fly was buzzing drowsiy up near
the ceiling of q qriet little barber shop
just off Third avenue, when the prosper
Gus looking grocer of the corner store
came in and sat down to be shaved. AS
the jolly little German barber tucked the
towel around his customers neck he
said: "Dot vas goot joke on Julius,
amt it?''
II don't know; what was it?" asked
the grocer.
Yah, 1t vas a briefly goot joke, but
may be you don't understand It. You
see, Julius don't spoke der English Lam
gnage like me. He don't say no like me.
He say nix Yesterday me and NINE

wanted to keteh the 2 o'clock tbrain?"
"Yesl" and there was sound of the
man hastily springing from his bed
"Well," drawled Pat, "yez can 20 back

A forcible remark or two proceeded
from the travelling mans room, and were
audible to bis awakened ueighbors, as
was the departure OF Pat; but soon all
was quiet again, and the few occupants
of the hotel were left for some time to
undisturbed repose. just as the first
faint streaks of dawn were tinging the

CALrsrKLL, Aug. 20, 1896.

CAiisrELL, Aug. 20, 1896.
To the Editor OF the SpokSsmaa Rscieg.
VIII ,ou please answer the ioiIo~inl
questions for one who is unable to see
the reason why?
l confess myself altogether too ignorant
to see the reason why the govern ment
should wait tor other nations to consent
TO our establishing the free coinage Of
silver at parity of 10 to /.
During the % years FROM 1873 to 1895
We exported s2,ls6, 200, 600 worth Of mer-
chandise more than we imported, which
means that other nations have paid us
an average of about one hundred million
dollars year more We have paid them.
Why should we ask their consent when
they are compelled to bring the money to
us instead Of our taking II TO them?
1 fail to see why We should fear foreign
ers bringing silver to be coined at our
minis.
twill not pay them to ship The silver
back again, and ii they bring it here they
will certainly pay it out for our products,
and thus increase the market tor all
forms OF natural products and manu-
features.
Why will this be an injury to Ameri.
cans?
| fail to see Why the government should
be afraid to put its stamp on the silver
products OF our mines when it does not
make itself liable in any manner by do
ing so. II the miner can double the value
of his bullion by taking it to the mint,
he will double his working force, and
thus give employment to hundreds OF
thousands OF idle men who viii spend
their money freely, as miners always do,
and thus give employment directly and
indirectly to a million more.
Why should this ipjure the govern.
ment, and what harm can it do to others ?
! fail to see any sense IN the statement
that We will have 50-cent dollar if we
adopt free coinage of silver.
A silver dollar contains Just 100 cents
all OF the time. Ii the goldbugs choose
to hoard their gold and demand more
than hundred cents for a gold dollar
does that make a silver dollar worth less
than 100 cents?
Are We compelled TO have gold when
there is sufficient silver and paper money
to transact our business at home, and the
clearing houses can settle with foreigners
without paying out cent in either gold
or silver?
Why cannot We turn over all Of ou,
gold to the monometallist, If they Will
surrender government bonds sufficient to
pay for it, and get along with silver and
paper!
II you will answer these questions sat
isfactory | will be much Obliged to you
and so will the entire farming communi-
ty and some others.

WAS HE An ANARcHISTf

In speech made before the Ohio
league Of republican clubs in 1892, Major
Mckinley used the following language
regarding Cleveland's first administra-
ton:
During all OF bis years at the head OF
the government he was dishonorIng one
OF our precious metals, one OF our own
great products, discrediting silver and en-
HANGING the price Of gold. He endeavor-
ed even before his Inauguration to Office
to stop the silver dollars, and aiterward
and to the end OF his administration per.
sistentiy used his power TO that end. He
was determined to contract the circulate
ing medium and demonetize one Of the
coins of commerce, limit the volume Of
money among the people, make money
scarce and therefore dear. He would
have increased the value OF money, and
diinin o / the vaus OF everything eIse--
money the master. everything else its SER
want. He was not thinking OF the poor
then. He had left their side He was
not standing forth In their defence
Cheap oats, cheap labor and dear money /;
the sponsor and promoter Of these pro-
Tossing to stand guard over the poor and
losly. Was there ever more glaring in
consistency or reckless assumption ?"
Such language by Bryan or any other
silver advocates in this. campaign would
be denounced by the McKinleyites as an
attempt to array the poor against the
rich" TO engender ''class hatred" to
"precipitate revolution" and to "breed
anarchy,p

Alter the nomination Of Mckinley they
said that Tom G. Plat was dead. Now
he arises from the cstafalque which they
had erected for him and positively de-
clinss the republican nomination for
governor Of New York. He has any
amount Of political life left in him and
realizing the trend Of the public will he
has too much discernment, coupled with
judgment. to permit himself to be used
as sacrificial offering. Mr.. Plat has a
knife fully as long and as we'll whetted as
are those that are carried by Mark Han
ma and Wood Pulp Miller.

sherman ON demonstration.

On July IL, 1876, in a speech in the
senate, John Sherman said:
THE enormous effect OF the law in
Germany, and as consequence the par.
tial decentralization OF silver coins, sup
pose Is felt by every man, woman and
child who buys or sells anything. A
struggle for the possession OF gold at once
arose between the great nations, because
anybody could see that ii e., go, GOO 600
Of silver coins were demonetized, and So
500, 000,0 900 OF gold coin made the gold
standard. 1t would enormously add
to the value of gold. and the Bank OF
France, the Bank of England, and the
Imperial Bank Of Germany at once COM
menced grasping for gold in whatever
form. Therefore what we have recently
observed is not so much fall OF silver as
IT is rise OF gold. the inevitable effect Of
fear OF the decentralization of silver"

greeted him WAS not assuring.

Mr.. Jones was not sure whether sh,

not tie slightest idea whether he hat
brought home any fish, but on the chance
that he might have done SO, he answered

"Fairl Why, Mr.. Jones, did you coun,

No.. said Mr.. Jones meekly, II didn't

II did. There were just 1876 OF them"
Mr.. Jones' eyes stuck out. Could it be
possible?. Yet IL would not do for him
to show surprise. Still. there was some
citation in bis voice when he said:

Mrs. Jones, ''but why did you 90 to bed

powdered bath brick.
When the patent leather on shoes be-
gins to look shabby rub on some sweet
oil with piece Of flannel, polish till all
the surplus oil is removed, and the shoes
win look as good as new.
Don't throw away ribbons because they
are soiled. Wash them 10 suds made oil
tiue toilet soap and cold water, squeezing
them quickly through. Place them be-
tween two cloths and press With a mod
crate hot iron.
Tumblers that hsve been used for milk
should never be put in hot water until
they bave fret been rinsed in cold water.
The heat drives the milk in aud gives a
cloudy appearance TO the glass which
cannot be removed.
