There are luxurious 1easts in
these days, brilliant with or
chids, each spray Of which costs
more than could be earned in a
twelve-month by the white

wages, made the garments of
one of the guests; and the SER
vice of silver and gold that

John Norton at the repub1i-
can convention yesterday said
the people didn't want a 30
cent dollar cheap money.
Cheap money, sound money,
dear money and honest money.
Have we any dishonest money?
Is not one kind of dollar just
as good as another kind of
dollar to any citizenin A merica?
Can you not buy any article
just as cheaply and just as
easily with a paper dollar as
you can with a gold or silver
dollar? Do you know of any
merchant who refuses to cancel
a debt upon tender of paper
money? Among the millions
who so sadly need money, do
you know of a single one who
refuses to accept what is called
cheap money? The orators ~
of the g. O. p. do not tell the
people the truth about this
money question. They discuss
dead issues and ignore the
live, real issues. Wind don't
go in this campaign, John.

The Labor Journal is a new
champion of the working
classes lately launched at Far
20, North Dakota. It is a bright
sheet and it's editorials have
the right ring. Messrs. Hall
and Hendershott, the pro-
prietors, are deserving of the
support and patronage of all
true workingmen. Mr.. Hender-
shott is we'll known to us and
we predict a bright future for
Fred and the Labor Journal.
The labor world., 1896-08-01

Labor has no interests antag-
onistic to legitimate business.
We have our disagreements with
our employers; so, also, we have
among ourselves. Business men
also have them-between cust0-
mer and merchant, between
debtor and creditor, between
partners and between competi-
tors. But these things with both
workingmen and business men
are merely a clash of private in
terests in an effort to determine
obscure equities, and, excepting
those effected, neither class is in
terested in them further than the
important necessity Of justice be-
ing done always as near as pos
sible. In all important matters
our interests are identical. Is
labor robbed, then it's purchas-
ing poweris diminished, and does
not the mechant suffer? Is en-
terpise plundered by exorbitant
interest and rents, does not labor
have to make it all good by
higher prices on it's purchases?
Labor, through organization, is
learning something about these
things, and we thank God that
the business men, at last, are
showing gsomes signs ofawakening
to their interest in the common
prosperity.

gold there is for gold bullion
already an unlimited demand.
Free coinage of silver will create
a like unlimited demand for sill
yer bullion, and means, there
fore, for the latter an in
creased demand. And the argu-
ment of the honorable candidate
on the gold bug platform for Mr..
Towns's situation amounts to
this: Greater demand produces
lower price. Wonder if the
learned Judge ever heard of a
"reductio ad absurdum?"
To maintain the parity of the
two metals there is the addi-
tiona1 influence of a decreasing
demand for gold. Under the lex
listing gold standard" the work
of exchanging values falls largely
on gold alone. Now, anybody
but a goldite candidate for con-
gress knows that, supply being
practically uniform, decreased
demand results in lower price.
All the money work now falls on
gold. Given free coinage and
made money of ultimate redemp-
ton, silver will divide the money
work with gold, and the demand
for gold will be lessened. Is it
not plain, therefore, that free
coinage of silver for the white
metal means increased demand
and, therefore, higher price, and
for gold decreased demand and,
therefore, lower price? Instead
of parting company the two
metals will approach each other
until the spread between their
bullion values disappears.
The labor world., 1896-08-01
Gold Bug Logic.

organized WOrk1ngmen are
modest; they don't pretend to
know everything. Nevertheless,
they resent as direct insults the
implications of stupidity con-
tanned in the so-called arguments
directed at them by the gold
standard people.
At the Morris ratification
meeting speakers laid greatstress
on the allegation that free COIN
age OF silver would drive gold to
a premium. This is tavorite
argument of the worshippers of
the "yellow god." That it is
supported neither by facts nor
logic don't seem, in their estima-
alton, to ''cut any ice.'
What are the facts?
Gold is now the standard. Be-
cause entitled to free coinage it's
bullion and coin values coincide.
More than this: the discontinue
ance Of silver coinage and the
effort to make gold the only
money of ultimate redemption,
has put double work on gold
created an increased, an unnat-
ural demand for it-and, as
measured in other values, already
forced it to q premium.
Silver, on the other hand, de-
MED conversion into money, is
only bullion-a mere commod-
ity-and like other commodities
being also measured in appreci-
ated gold already has fallen in
price.
Has there been any spread be-
tween the value Of the gold dol
lar and the silver dollar? Why
not? Because the coined silver,
within the jurisdiction of our
government being made legal
tender, is able to pay as much
debt per dollar as the coined
gold and, therefore, is worth as
much as gold.
AS there is, then, no SpreaQ
now between the two coined
dollars. when can one occur?
The present ratio between the
bullion values of the two metals
is about 80 to 1. Manifestly,
then, the spread cannot occur at
80 to 1 or a less ratio. If it 0c-
ours at all it must be when the
ratio is greater than 80 to 1,
that is when the bullion in the
silver dollar is worth less than
So cents.
The argument that free COIN
ape of silver will force gold to a

the same line with Mr.. Morris,
but the whole affair was very
flat, the people refused to en-
thuse and a great deal of super
fuous e1oquence that had been
pent up, for 10, these many days,

A MORNING GOWN.

gowns designed by Felix is OF cream
batiste over coral taffeta. The bodice is
draped, and has yoke composed of entire
deux OF pierced batiste. A fold of coral
velvet follows the line of the yoke and

full EOdet skirt the pierced hatiste is
introduced In inch wide strips, and the
bottom OF the skirt is finished with ruche
of the plain batiste.
Many Americans visit the "Ceves" early
in the season, and IL is noticed how
rapidly they recover after receiving Il box
OF fresh elegant gowns.
There is no need OF talking of elegant
simplicity, for it does not exist. Every
thing is yoked, rufiied. pierced, ribbon
trimmed, appiiqucd, and decorated with
buttons, and the cost of gowns is aim ,St
trebIed over last season. Modistes charge
a great dea! more to make dresses, and the
materials are more expensive. For al
that, they are so beautiful that YOU do
not beErudge the cost.
