The silver men have a great deal to
say about the dollar of 1873 being
the poor mans dollar. And they are
urging the voters to cast their ballots
and get rid of the rich mans dollar
of 1896 and return to the poor man s
dollar of 1873. The New York Ad-
vertiser shows how very poor the
poor mans dollar was in that year
in comparison with the dollar of to-
day 81
In 1878, the year silver was "struck
down." dollar would purchase a
trife more than a pound of tea; to-
day it will buy four times as much.
In 1873 dollar would purchase a
little over eight pounds of refined
sugar; to-day it will buy about IS
pounds
In 1873 a dollar would purchase
about IA yards of print cloth; to-day
it will buy over thirty yards.
In 1873 a dollar would purchase
only a gallon and a half of molasses;
to-day it will buy over three gallons.
10 1873 a dollar would purchase
about three quarters of a yard of
two-ply ingrain carpeting; to-day it
will buy two yards.
In 1873 a dollar would purchase
only about 20 pounds of cut nails;
to-day it will buy so pounds. Com
PARSONS to the same effect might be
made without number.
There are not many housekeepers
who would care to go back to the
high prices of that year. Certainly
the workingmen would be much
worse off under the old regime.

HYDE PARK.



Despite the extreme heat. Saturday
evening found the town hall snugly
full of Republican voters, their wives
and lady tIi'nds, Will among the
audience there was a fair sprinkling
of DemOcrats-out to hear The truth.
While the crowd was assembling the
band occupied its stand and rendered
some inspiring music. r. W. Hull
burd opened the meeting with a few
remarks and gracefully introduced
the speaker of the evening, Hon
Chas S. Gleed of Topeka, Kas., who
prefaced his arguments by referring
to bis early recollections of Hyde
Park; this was the first place he ever
visited outside his native town; that
thirty-fve years ago he came here
with his father, and that to him
Hyde Park seemed a sort of sacred
place, associated in his memory as it
was with the last work bis father
ever did.
The speaker then described the
present campaign as one in which we
have to deal with specific quantities
and established facts. He defined
money, touched briefly on it's history
down to the present and gave the
reasons which have led to gold be-
coming the standard by which all
great civilized nations measure val
ues. Gold is the mos stable known
quantity, fuctuates less in value
than any other metal, etc. He point
ed out clearly what would follow the
free coinage of silver at the proposed
ratio advocated by silver enthu-
siasts; a cheap dollar would result
which would drive the real dollar out
of circulation; the cheaper dollar
certainly would be the only one in
use, The experience of Mexico in re
gard to free silver coinage was cited
as showing how useless it is for any
government to attempt to force
upon the people as dollar that
which in itself is not worth dollar,
unless it is issued as money of ulti-
mate redemption. The poor pros
perity and poorly paid labor of that
country were ais spoken of.
There are two kinds of free coinage.
one which would stamp every SO
cents worth of silver brought to the
mints a dollar, and let the govern
ment stand good for the balance
the other kind would simply stamp
the SO cents worth of silver a dollar,
call it a dollar and let it go at that.
The one would be in effect the same
as issuing silver certificates, bank
notes or any other redeemable
money; the other would result in re-
during this country to the single
standard of cheap silver, with all its
consequent drawbacks and incon.
veniences. Mr. Gl1ed also touched
upon the causes of the great decline
in prices of farm produce, showing
that the increase in production has
been far greater and more rapid thar
the increase in population and hence
ia the markets; also due to the
cheaper methods of production anC
to natural competition.
Mr.. Gleed's remarks from beginning
to end were based on facts, moi
theories, and he wasted no time il
sky-rocket oratory or eloquence
Forcible, logical, practical, and bear
ing the stamp of sincerity, his re
marks were closely followed by all
A rising vote of thanks was tendereC
the speaker at the close of his talk.

chased $53, 900 worth of silver bull
lion at the market price. Hepurposes

bullion to the mint and haveitcoined

in that event net him 500, 900. This

AN APPROPRIATE EMBLEM.-The
silverites in choosing the field daisy
as their emblem made singularlv
appropriate selection. The flower is
supposed to typify the 16 to / idea,
and the badges that have been made
show sixteen silver petals to one gold
centre. Every one at all familiar
with daisies knows that the number
of petals varies widely. There may
be sixteen, and there may be more
even as many as thirty-while- the
gold centre always remains the same.
The emblem thus clearly indicates
the fuctuating ratio between gold
and silver. A law which will limit
the number of petals of the daisy to
sixteen is just as feasible as one that
will make the intrinsic value of six.
teen ounces of silver equal to one
ounce of gold,
