BALTIMORE, Nd, Sept %, 1896 :
Messrs. Editors The following Is an
editorial from the London Financial
News" which would like to see appear In
the columns Of the BEACON for the many
free silver voters OF st. Mary's.
Very respectfully,
FREDERIC CHUNN,
There is q plain moral In the remark
that if the United States would mature to
cut herself adrift from Europe and take
outright to silver, she would have ali
America and Asia at her bsck and the
command of the markets of both CONT
nentts The barrier OF gold would be more IA.
tai than any barrier of custom house. The
bond Of silver would be stronger than any
bond of free trade. There can be no doubt
about ii that IL the United States were TO
adopt silver basis tomorrow, British trade
would be ruined before the year was out.
Every American would be protected, rot
only at home, but in every market. OF
course, the United States would suffer 10
certain extent through having TO pay her
obligations abroad in gold, but the loss of
exchange undar this head would be mere
drop in the bucket as compared to the pro-
ut to be reaped from the markets of South
America and Asia, to say nothing of Eu-
rope. The marvel is that the United States
has not long ago seized the opportunity.
II has been piece Of luck that 1t has nev.
er occurred to Americans to scoop as out
OF the worlds markets by going on q silver
basis, and 1t might serve us right IL, irrita.
ted by the contemplate spatby of our
government toward the silver problem, the
Americans retaliated by freezing OCT gold.
1t could be easily done"

say the symptoms are rapid breathing,
cold extremities and short duration of the

lungs are black. These authorities recon-
mend bloodietting as the first remedial
measure, the pulse being the guide as to
the quantity taken. Theyfurther say, good
effects follow the administration CT small
doses Of calomel and opium-swo scruples
