The fact that T. B. Catron is 30 en-
tangled with the Brice-C oler syndicate as
to be in duty bound to do it's bidding for
all time in congress undoubtedly has
much to do with the popular disfavor
with which his candidacy for re. reelection is
received by the masses throughout The
territory. Besides he is not on the right
side of the financial proposition--the
overshadowing issue in this campaign.

Sixteen to one simply means
the basis of valuation fixed by
law between gold and silver. six
teen ounces or grains of silver
equaling in value one ounce or
grain of gold.
Previous to 1878 silver was re-
ceived by the United States mints
and coined on the 16 to basis
and the nation was prosperous.
During that year silver was de-
monetized by a bill which simply
dropped the words "Silver Dol
lar from the coinage law. 1t
was some time after the bill was
signed before it was known that
it had killed the coinage of sill
YER. President Grant claimed
that he signed the measure with
out noticing the omission of the
"Silver Dollar Afterward Con-
gresham Bland introduced
bill to remonetize silver but it
was vetoed by President Hayes.
Finally in 1890 the Sherman act
directing the government to pur-
chase 4,5O,0W ounces per month
was passed. This act was re-
pealed in 1893 and silver again
demonetized. Previous to this
silver was also killed in India.
Now the friends of the white
metal simply ask that silver be
restored to its old place.

of Langdon, Batcheller & Co., whose fac

headquarters in New York city. By this
it will be seen this firm is the oldest
firm of hand made corset manufacturers
in the I. S., and has grown to be one of
the most important of Bridgeport's in
dustrial enterprises. During the Civil
war the products of the firm were manu-

distributed from the New York office.
The firm originally started with from go

operatives who receive in the form of

yards of cloth is used in the production
of their daily output of corsets Of all
styles and grades which require from

The lord may live right royalty,
The soldier rude in pomp and pride,
The sailor roam Ger the ocean wide;
But this or that, whate'er befall,
The farmer he must feed them all.
The writer thinks, the poet sings,
The craftsmen fashion wondrous things,
The doctor heals, the lawyer pleads,
The miner follows the precious leads;

The merchant he may buy and sell,

But men may toll through busy days,
Or men may stroll through pleasant ways
From king to beggar, whate'er befall,
The farmer he must feed them all.
The farmers trade is one of worth;
He's partner with the sky and earth;
He's partner with the sun and rain;
And no man loses for his gain
And men may rise, and men may fall,
The farmer he must feed them all.
