The granting OF the site for the erection Of -
armory IS opposed the grounds that II woQt9
damage and retard business In the street, that y
would be a blight upon all further improvements
OF property in the neighborhood, and that It would
be illegal, in view OF the fact that the law provid.
ing for the removal Of the college, Chapter l6S OF
the Laws OF 1895. provides that the present build
ings and grounds OF the college shall be sold by the
Commissioners OF the Sinking Fund and the pro-
ceeds applied to the payment OF bonds issued for
necessary buildings"
The members OF the association say that this law
relating to the disposition OF the site cannot be
overridden. and that the land must be sold II the
city wants 1t, they say. for an armory. II must
compete the sale 1t is estimated that the college
ste Is worth $1o.000 and that six adjoining lota
which 1t is proposed that the city purchase for the
armory. would cost 100000 1t is asserted that .
fine armory building could be erected a suitable
site In another part OF the city for about the vauar
flon OF the college site.
The ASSOCIATION will express its views On the mat

My friends. If you believe IN free
silver, If YOU believe in the money OF
the constitution. If you believe in an
Independent policy for the American
people. you have got to have not only
q. president. but a senate and house of
representa- iVes. No bill can become

and no bill can be signed by the presi-
dent until it has passed both houses.
Then, If you are in earnest, 1 want you
to be just as earnest to send con

to elect a. president. You have a splen-
did opportunity in this district.

good Republicans that 7 have found

have one man like Towne, who is a

right. But instead of giving sixteen
Democrats for one Republican they
have reversed the ratio"

Condemns Intimidations by
Corporations.

Colorado Springs, Colo, Oct. 1.-THE
second days session of the Internation-
al Typographical union was largely
given over to the transaction of rout-
inc business The subject of the coer-
cion of the labor vote in various parts
of the country was brought up and the
following resolution unanimously
adopted.
Resolved. That the International
Typographical union denounce the eft
forts being made by certain corpora
lions to coerce or influence their en-
ployes in their votes, as a defiance Of
the most sacred rights of the CITIZENS as
guaranteed to them by the constitution
of the United States and believing that
the permanency of Republican insti-
tutions depends upon an honest ballot,
we demand that the laws relating to
the intimidation Of voters, no matter
to which class, rich or poor, the often
der belongs, be rigidly enforced"

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About she New Discovery
for Curing DYspepsla.

The Rev F. I. Bell, a highly esteemed
minister residing in WeedspOrt, Cayuga
Co., New York in a. recent letter writes
as follows. There has never been any
thing that I have taken that has reliev-
ed the Dyspepsia from which I have
suffered for ten years except the new
remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's Since taking them I have had no
distress at all after eating and again
after long years can sleep well. Rev.
+. l. Bell, Weedsport, n. 2, formerly
Idalia, Colo.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a re-
markable remedy, not only because it
is a certain cure for all forms of indi-
gestion, but because it seems to act as
thoroughly in old CHI mic cases of Dys-
pepsla as well as in mild attacks of in
digestion or biiOusness. A person has
dyspepsia simply because the stomach

This is the secret of the success of
this peculiar remedy. No matter how
weak or how much dfsordered the di-

Tablets will digest the food whether
the stomach works or not. New life
and energy is given not only to the

GOLD MEN WITHOUT GOLD.
Bryan Addresses an Audience Wear
ing Many Yellow Badges.

Staples. MINI Oct 14.-Yellow badges
with the name of the Republican candi-
date for the presidency were much in
evidence when Mr.. Bryan emerged
from his special car at Little Falls yes
terday and began to speak from plat
form q hundred yards from the railroad
track. There was no shouting Tor NC
kinley but a large proportion OIL me
audience listened to Mr.. Bryan's casti-
cation of gold bugs with yellow badges
bearing that insignia pinned proml-
nently on their coats.
Mr. Bryan said in part:
Ladies and Gentlemen. Sometime
I find persons Who are in the condition
of a gentleman described out in Ne
braska- lady down there said she
had a brother who was a gold man
without any gold. You talk to a Repub-
ican about bimetallism, and he will tell
you he is just as good bimetallist as
anybody but when you come to see
what kind Of paper they print their
badges on you viii find it is yellow My
friends the Lord has made it impossible
for a man to conceal his real identity.
When you find a man who talks about
liking both metals and who is a gold
standard man, you will find his yellow

Of them are in the condition OF the man
in Nebraska, being gold men without
any gold
our friends tell US that gold is the
only good money and yet they can't
get the gold when they want it. Our
opponents say the real reason why gold
is SO scarce now is. because there is ag-
itation about silver They are telling
us that the silver craze is dying out,
and yet it SO much alive that it has
scared the gold out. My friends is it
not frail financial system that crum-
bles in the presence of discussion2 Is
not the gold standard a failure if it
cannot live in campaign where free
coinage is discussed If you will give
US silver we will give them a founda-
ton that won't slip out the moment you
talk about the gold standard. No par
ty in this nation ever said the gold
standard was a good thing. No plat
form ever said it was a good thing, but
the money changers and the money
owners said so. The trouble is the gold
standard advocates dare not proclaim
the results of the policy they advocate
Let them instead of wearing yellow
badges, print on a card: We are Amer
lean citizens but we think this nation
is not big enough to attend to its own
business and go out and face the con-
demnation of their fellow men" (Wild
