 Travel over the A. & $. E. was unu- ally light today in both directions and the fact was especially noticeable after the large number Of passengers who went over the road yesterday.
 George Spindle and his bride left on the train yesterday morning for thei. honeymoon trip to his ol1 home in the east. They Were escorted as far as Benson by number Of Mrs Spindl-'s family ani several of their friends, all of whom returned again last evening.
 Another fatality was rec c)rded as happening about the compsny's works yesterday. A Mexican, named Deon Romera, while engaged in grading out an old dump dug in On the under s;te oi II undermining the pile which was about fifteen feet high at that point and quite loose. He had been warn, d several times to be careful aud not go in too far but he could not have reai- lZed his danger AS he was almost blried when the pile caved in on him.
 Thi5 is one oi those sad accidents which happen every now and then and are seemingly unavoidable. |: IS also one in which the company could ia ID way be heli responsible a- the danger vas well known ard tl mon cautioned against 1t.

The advent of the season in Bisbee was well celebrated last night by two weddings among some of her best known residents.
 The marriage Of MT. Vim. P. Scott and Miss Maud Liggett took place at the home of the bri ie, which was ap- propriately decorated for the occasion. The ceremony was attended by none bat the relatives and few of the more particular friends, but all of their many friends and acquaintances con- gra;ula,e the young folks on their good fortune and wish them a full measure of happiness and prosperity.
 The second welding, that of Mir. George Spindlss and Miss Lucy Hum. phrey, was also quiet home affair and took place st the home of the bride during the afternoon. A few friends of the parties were invited 10 attend and the wedding was a most ples sant one. Their many friends also join in wishing them a lie oi prosperity and happiness.

WOULD HURT INSTEAD OF ngLp.
How Free Coinage would Iniurs the
Farmers.


How Free Coinage would Iniurs the
Farmers.
The chief strength OF the sixteen to
one agitation lies in the belief that it
would benefit the agricultural classes.
This is serious error. The facts Of
all human experience show conclusive
ly that free silver would cause wide
spread and prolonged injury to the
farmers of this country.
The mere threat of free coinage would
greatly injure the farmers by causing
an immediate calling in Of all loans
through the natural desire of lenders TO
get back money worth as much as they
lent. Hundreds of thousands of farmers
would be unable to pay their mort
cages, and their farms would be sold at
q sacrifice. No new loans would be
forthcoming, as the owners of capital
would not invest so long as there was
any danger that by change in the
money standard the value of loans
would be cut in two. AS the chief COM
plant of the farmers now is that inter-
est is too high and capital too scarce,
the effect of policy which would make
capital scarcer and dearer can be
figured out by each farmer for himself.
A second way in which free coinage
would hurt agriculture would be by the
financial panic which would inevitably
follow the overthrow of our present
sound financial system and the adoption
of the unstable cheap silver standard.
With the millions of bank depositors
demanding their savings, the machinery
of credits, by which so large a part OF
the country's business is done, would be
suddenly stopped. Merchants would be
unable to buy goods for lack of credit;
manufacturing industries would be
closed down, as in 1893, and millions
of workers would be idle. Men out Of
employment do not buy as much farm
products as when they are at work, and
the farmers who now complain of the
lack Of markets for their produce would
find themselves with large part Of
their crops unsold. Would not this be O
serious injury to agriculture
Another evil which free coinage would
| bring to American farmers would be
the unsettlement of their trade reln.
tions with the great gold standard com.
mercial nations, which purchase each
year $600,0o0,000 worth of our surplus
farm products. The adoption of the sill.
ger standard, with its constantly fuctu
ating scale of prices, would prove the
same barrier to commerce between this
and other countries that it has to trade
between gold standard Europe and In
dia, China and japan. Do the farmers
want to curtail and unsettle our foreign
trade?
These are some of the ways in which
free coinage at sixteen to one would
hurt the farmers. No advocate of So
cent dollars has ever been able to show
single way in which it would helI
them. tN.

THINK 1T OVER.
Some Points for Fsrmcrs to CAREFUL.
EAuetdar

Some Points for Farmers to Carefully
Consider.
Farmers who think that free silver
will help them to get rid Of their mort
cages should consider carefully what
effect sixteen-to-one law will have on
the lenders of capital. The silverites are
telling you beautiful stories about the
great volume of money which will be
ready for loaning at low rates of inter-
est as soon Is we adopt the silver stand
ard. But suppose the scheme should not
work in the way they expect? Suppose
that as soon as it becomes likely that .
free-coinage law will be enacted there
is general demand that all mortgages
should at once be paid in full? The
promise Of cheap money when free sill
yer comes won't help you now. Where
are you going to get the money to pay
off your mortgage? Do you suppose
any man is going to make loans while
there is possibility of his being re-
paid in 50-cent dollars? And If you can't
raise the money when it is called for,
and II your farm is sold at a sacrifice,
where will you be then?
Think these things over. Don't be
fooled by the free-silv@ idea that cheap
money means low rates of interest. The
facts are just the other way. Interests is
far higher in all silver-using countries
than In gold countries. If we go on the
silver standard the men who have capt.
tai to lend will charge more interest
than they do now in order to cover the
risk of being repaid in deprecated sill
yer dollars. So, if you succeed in Dor
rowing under free coinage you win pay
higher interest on the loan. Ask any
body who knows the facts whether in
terest is not much higher in Mexico, In
dia or the silver South American eoun-
tries than in the United States, Eng
land or Germany, with their currency
based ON gold. Then make up your mind
that you will vote for the financial sys-
TEN which if left und:sturbed will ben
Gift you far more than free silver will.

While the advocates of free coinage
are loudly asserting the power of the
government to raise the bullion value
of silver from thirty to one to sixteen to
one of gold they at the same time pub
aiah facts which prove the very reverse
of their claim. Thus they boast that for
sthe 20 years previous to 1873, the year
sof the alleged crime, the value of silver
bullion ranged from three to seven
cents per ounce above its coinage value
I'm other words, the silver in dollar"
icoin was worth three or four cents more
than dollar. Now the preachers of
prosperity through legislation say that
II is the law that fixes the valne of the
money metals, and that If the United
States alone opened its mists for the
free coinage OF silver at sixteen 10 one
sthe commercial value of gold would be
exactly 16 times that of silver. That
their assertion is not true, and that the
bullion value of either metal cannot be
fixed by law, is clearly shown by the
facts given above in regard to the COM
plete failure of previJds free-eoinage
Jaws to keep the real value of silver at a
ratio of sixteen to one of gold.
