WHAT a menagerle of wild beasts
humanity is after all. Mankind pride
themselves on being peaceful, loving,
intellectual, moral, and spiritual Great
ures, yet they spend most of their time
quarreling with and trying to destroy
each other. They delight in the mis-
cry. discomfort and downfall Of each
other. Where one helping hand is ex-
tended, a dozen kicks are administered.
Where one gracious word is uttered a
volley Of .imprecations are fred. Nov
ed by a common desire for eternal bliss,
they start on the road to salvation and
consume their lives in dismal alterca-
tIons over inscriptions on the guide
posts. They arrange a scheme for the
promotion of human happiness and
straightway torment themselves to
death over details of execution.

FACTS ABOUT SILVER.

According to the figures given in the
report of the director of the United
States mint there has been an increase
in the annual silver product of the
world from S40,8O000O in 1850 to $751;
$4,000 in 1870; S06,7O0,OOO in 1880,
$172, 234, 500 in 1890, and S216892, 200 in
1894. To get fair conception Of what
that s216,S72, 200, would be worth un-
der free coinage we should multiply it
by two, making total annual produc-
ton Of $43S, 644,4 400. Add to this the
fact that if an unlimited market were
established for silver such as is con-
templated by the Democratic platform
new silver mines would be opened
all over the western United States, and
throughout Mexico and other silver
producing countries. Upon fair esti-
mate-and candid and reasonable men
must admit 1.-THE production of sill
yer would be doubled and possibly
trebled. Pretty near Populist fiat isn't
it? Now in the face of these facts
and under the light of these figures, it
would be no more than fair that adYo,

The Review of Reviews for August,
while largely given over to the issues
of the Presidential campaign, finds
space for the treatment of other i'm
portant topics. Besides the character
sketch of Mr.. Bryan, the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency, the Re-
view has illustrated articles on Harriet
Beecher Stowe and DIR. Bernardo, the
father of ''NObody's Children" There
is the usual elaborate resume of the cur
rent magazines; and the departments
of "The Progress of the World"
Record of Current Events" and
Current History in Caricature" answer
the typical American demand for what
is up to date and alive.

emit asks why the Mexican silver dollar
is not worth as much in trade as the
United States dollar, and If the Next
can dollar ever was worth as much as
the United States dollar. The Next
can dollar contains seven grains more
silver than the American dollar, but
Mexico is not strong enough to hold
silver up to a parity with gold, hence
the dollar takes simply its bullion val
ne. THIS country is on a gold basis,
and the reason our dollar, handicapped
as it is, is worth as much as the gold
dollar, is solely because the government
makes good every dollar that it issues.
That is, all forms of money lean upon
gold. although in this country silver
is no longer primary money, it goes
at par. The Mexican dollar was for
merly worth a little more than the
american dollar because its CONNER
cial value followed its money value.

Davis. more Familiarity known as
"Diamondaeld Jack" the notorious
outlaw, has been located. 1t is thought
he is now under arrest at Santa Rosa,
Cal, and an officer, armed with re-
uuisition for his extradition, left Tor
that place Wednesday to indemnity the
man supposed to be Davis, and, If ne
proves to be the right party, to bring
him back to the scene of his awful
crimes in this state.
The charge upon which Davis is held
in California is assault with intent TO
kill William c. Tolman in CassIa
county on Nov. 16, 1895. TOlman wac
sheep man, and it is said had become
offensive to cattle owners. Davis, it is
alleged, was delegated to put him out
of the way, He made a murderous
assault upon Tolman, shooting him with
a Winchester; but the wOuld-be assassin
fed before he had finished his intended
victim. He left him, however, for dead,
but Tolman was not mortally wounded,
and, although he suffered for months,
finally recovered.
While this charge still hangs over
Davis, there is still another and a more
serious one for him to answer upon his
return to Idaho; for 1t is stated there is
evidence that it was he who so coward
ly murdered the two sheepmen, Wilson
and Cummings, in Cassia county last
spring. There is reward of $4,000 for
the murderer of the two sheepmen and
a reward of $500 for Davis for his MUIR
derous assault upon TOlman-Boise

WATSON AS ATHoRN oRowNER


AIr. Sewall has stated In general
way that the action at st. Louis will
make no difference whatever with his
campaign plans. This leaves him a
loophole for saying, IL he wants to,
that he had previously decided not to
accept the nomination. The situation
in his own state is very embarrassing,
independent of st. Louis. lie went
home from Chicago fully expecting, at
least predicting confidently. that the
Main state central Democratic commit
tee would meet and REVISE the state
platform so as to agree with the nat
ional platform. He counted his chick
ems before they were Matched. So far
from doing anything of that kind, he
finds himself in the condition of the
prophet who was dishonored in his
own country.
When the time comes for that grand
blowout at Madison Square Garden
New York, the occasion being the for
NAL notification of Bryan and himself
of their Chicago nomination, he will
have to be explicit. He can send in
his declination if he wants to at that
time, or before, but not afterward. at
least it would be inexcusable for him
to daily along beyond that occasion.
In the meanwhile Mr.. Watson is not
losing any time in letting it be publicly
known that he accepts the Vice Presi-
Dental nomination of the Populists. 1t
is true that the committee was clothed
with the power of the convention it.
self by the convention to fill all vacan-
cies, but even if the convention were
in session and wanted to reconsider his
nomination it could not do it after his
acceptance. That acceptance has the
effect OF q parliamentary motion to re-
consider and to lay that motion on the
table. The Watson candidacy must
now be set down as fixed fact 81 will
run the race to the end" is one of dec.
larations of Thomas q. Watson over
his own signature. To make his posi-
ton more plain, if possible, and his at
titude toward the Democracy more de-
faint, he calls attention to his book, in
which he savagely arraigned and at.
tackled the Democratic Fifty-Second
Congress, declaring that his views have
undergone no change, and adding this
slap in the face:
81 am not a political trader, and will
not resign in Sewell's favor, even if Of
Tered cabinet position"
The st. Louis POpulists could not
have found in all their ranks more
vehement, venomous, and rancorous
enemy of the Democratic party than
this same Tom Watson. Jumping on
that party with brogans full of hob
nails has been at once his occupation
and his recreation for the last four or
five years. He is popular orator, and,
like Bryan and Norton, he also has
newspaper through which to proclaim
his defiant luminosity to the party to
which, as an ally, he is to appeal for
support. That seems to be the Popu-
listic idea of "the logic of the situa-
tion." There is likely to be a good deal
of trouble ahead for the allies. This
Watson acceptance is a striking exam
pie of crown of thorns. The Georgia
fire-eater begins by pressing it down
upon the brow of poor Sewall, but IL
the kid candidate undertakes to snatch
it off the first thing he knows his own
brow will be bleeding from its thorns.

BUSINESS BREVITIES.

NEAT NEW BREAKER.-TheD Della
ware and Hudson Canal company mas
lust completed another new breaker
near Plymouth, which for economy IN
the preparation of coal for the market
and convenience for the men to be EN-
ployed about II is the peer OF anything
of it's kind in the companys possession.
1t Is an imposing structure, having an
altitude of about $50 feet and Is suita-
bly, located on a gentle slope a snort
distance to the north of No. colliery
of the same company. The breaker Is
equipped throughout with the latest
improved machinery, such as patent
slate pickers, patent dumps, screens,
etc There are also a few features
which are entirely new. The most i'm
portant of these is the method of doing
away with the culm and slate. \ line
of cOnveyors, operated by the breaker
engine, which run through the waste
pockets, gather up the culm and slate
and convey 1t to large pocket snort
distance from the breaker where, after
being mixed with water, il is sent
through bore hole INTO the worked
out portions of the old No. mine. The
slate before descending into the mines
Is sent through crusher situated di-
rectly over the bore hole and ground
fine enough to be easily conveyed by
the water to any portion of the inside
workings. The waste from No col
liery, of which there is already per-
haps half million tons on the surface,
will be similarly disposed of through
the same bore holes. This has been
found to be the most satisfactory way
of getting rid of the culm piles. 1t also
has a double benefit to the company. A
great deal of surface is not only saved,
but the old workings are filed up,
thereby protecting the mines against
caves and saving thousands of tons of
coal.-Wilkes-B Barre Record.
