New York, June 15.---The striking

to be making the statement that the

This statement is branded as false by the

VENEZUELAN DISPUTE.
The Question Comes Up in the House
of Commons.

LONDON, July 27.-The Venezuelan
question was again brought up in the
House of Commons to-day by an inter
rogatory by John Morley, formerly
Chief Secretary for Ireland, who asked
for information regarding the papers on
the subject recently upon the table Of
the House.
In replying to the question, the Right
Secretary of the Foreign Office, said
that the statement in defense of Vene-
zuela's claim recently submitted to the
American High Commission had not
yet reached the Foreign Office. When
it was received it would be laid upon
the table.
Mr.. Morley then asked further ques-
tions germane to the subject, in reply
to which the Right Hon. Joseph Cham
berlain, Secretary of State for the Colo
nies, said that he was unable to give
the information asked for. He added
that the population within the territory
in dispute could only be determined first
by negotiation and afterward by local
inquiry.

President Hyde of Bowdoin College,

in which labor is to be paid, cannot be

WHY SHE SNEERED.
SCOTS at Men After Hearing Them
Canvass a Dog Fight.

"And yet they say that men are prac-
tical," said Mrs. Youngwife the other
night.
1t was at dinner and her husband had
brought friend home with him. On
the way over from the car the two men
had stopped to watch dog fight, and.
quite naturally, they were full of the
subject when they came in.
.'You remember Bob, that bull terrier
of mine, don't your" the husband asked
his friend, as they sat down to wait
for dinner to be served.
The friend remembered
well, sir, I kicked a patent leather
shoe all to pieces on that dog once
trying to make him let go of a little
poodle that he had by the neck"
Don't say so! Well, they've the very
devil of a grip when they once take
hold''
Yes, sir. Finally I took him up and
tried to knock the little thing out of
Bob's jaws by hitting them against a
tree"
Did you finally get them apart?"
Yes, the little fellows eyes were get
ting pretty dull and glazed when l
managed to get my stick between Bob's
teeth and pried them open. 1t was a
close call for the POODLE
"You act as if you enjoyed it, said
Mrs. Youngwife, with a Disguised ex-
preston.
"Oh, 1 assure you, my DEAR" very
hurriedly, II was quite-quite Mortified.
Didn't 1 tell you / kicked my shoe to
bits trying to get them apart?"
"Humph. Why didn't you carry snuff
if you would own such a beast of a
dog?"
Snuff, my dear?"
Yes. I don't think you would have
had to sacrifice a shoe if you had given
the brute a good pinch of snuff
'Er-yes, 1 suppose that might do
"A pail of water would be just as
effective" said the friend, loftily, to
show that he knew a thing or two about
dogs.
Mrs. Youngwife looked at him.
Yes" she said. And then it would
be SO convenient a thing to carry around
with you-a pail of water You could
carry one on each arm when you went
out to walk with the dog"
The friend looked embarrassed.
mo, that wouldn't do" said Mrs.
Youngwife's husband, thoughtfully,
but it would settle things quickly to
build fire under them
Mrs. Youngwife looked tired.
IT'S balky horse you're thinking of,
DEAR" she said. II haven't had lib
eral education in dog fights, but that
doesn't seem to be just the remedy"
Dinner is served, ma am from the

vention. but it is discovered that the
Identical language of the most interest
ing portion of it was used by Mr.. Bryan
in an effort before the House of Repre-
sentatives on December p, 1894. This
shows that the gentleman who gained
the nomination by his evolutionary ef-
fort at Chicago has very limited stock
of phrases at his command, and sug-
gests the probability that he lacks the
training and breadth of knowledge of
Governmental affairs to justify entrust-
ing him with the chief magistracy.
THE RESULT THE SAME.
Marysville Democrat: The nomina-
tion of Bryan by the Populists and So
called Silver party delegates does not,
in fact, change the situation, and the re-
suit will be the same when the ballots
are counted. The electors who go to the
polls November Sd will know more of
what is meant by free and unlimited
coinage of silver at ratio of 16 to /
than they do now. Bryan is radical
advocate of the white metal and has for
more than a year been a paid advocate
to boom the cause of silver. He was elec-
ted a Representative in Congress by
combination Of Democrats and Popu
ond term. All of the electors who believe
in the policy of forcing upon the people
cheap money, debased circulating med
ium, will vote for Bryan, and they would
have done that if the Populists had not
nominated him.
A TRUE TEST OF HONESTY.
Humboldt Standard: A friend called
yesterday to ask what is meant by hon.
est money. The test when coin is re-
ferred to is this: Take a given amount
of gold coin, say $100, and melt it; take
500 in silver coin and melt it also; then
find what each lump of metal is worth
in the worlds markets. If one money is
as good as the other the metal of which
1t is made will be worth the same
amount If you will try the experiment
you will find that the metal in the SlOO
of gold coin will be worth a hundred dol
lars, and the silver worth about fifty
three dollars; 1t would not bring more
than that in any kind of lawful money.
Which then is the honest money? Coin
is supposed to be made of full value. The
metal in 1t should be worth what is
stamped on it's face. Paper money is

Oroville Register: Tie present cam
paign must be one Of education. 1t

mere assertions and declarations. If
We could form clubs and discuss the
great issues of the day it would bring
better results than in mere stump
speeches. The whole body of people are
talking this question Of free silver. Let
Us hold meetings and invite public dis
cussion. 1t would have good effect in
mere ways than one.
DEMONSTRATED CAPACITY.
Fresno Republican,: The Republican
party has demonstrated it's capability
in administering the affairs of Govern
ment. 1t has kept its promises, and
prosperity has been the prevailing con-
dition under it's Administration. 1t is
the aggressive champion of protection
and reciprocity, which policy will more
quickly bring an industrial revival, not
only at home, but in our trade relations
with those foreign countries which now
sell us their products but buy from
Europeans, than all the financial re-
forms that can possibly be effected by
the diSorganized and diScredited Democ-
racy.
Tulare Register: It is time that
some of these rampant revolutionists
We're triced up by the thumbs and
sratted on their bare backwardness
with a board full of augur holes. 1t
would teach them moderation. J. H.
Turner, Secretary of the National Pop
ulist party, is out with manifesto in
dorsing Bryan and the Chicago plat
form, which is all right, but he con-
cludes his proclamation with the asser-
ton that if Mckinley is elected there
will be a bloody revolution. Such talk
is reasonable. Are we to have cam
paign of terrorism on the part of the
T,lalcontents? In 1860 the Secessionists
declared that the election of Abraham
Lincoln meant war; bur Abraham Lin
cCln was elected, and those who talked
war got their bellies full of war before
they had done with it. The American
people would not be bulldozed then and
they viii not be bulldozed now. And
some of these people who prate of revo-
luton in order to excite the discontents
or curry favor with them may wake III

The coincidence in these designations

The requests for the designations are
