Mr. Carlisle stated to congress re
emily that the supply of gold in the
United States, from the best sources of
Information obiainable, amounted to

nly about Sl27, 100000 of this amount
= held by the banks and available for
exemption purposes. Mr.. Carlisle, in
lis Chicago speech, said there was de
posted IN the banks Of the country

loies outstanding amount to 5000 ,0O0,-

half billion dollars What sort of a

me hundred and twenty seven million
icllars in gold which they now hold?
We would like to hear from our gold

There are probably more than 100
different brands of salve made in
Adams. There is salvc for rheuma-
tism, salve for eczema, salve for tan
and sunburn, salvc for scratches and
bruises, salve for consumption, and so
through a long catalogue of ailments.
a separate and distinct salvc for each
complaint or q CUP of diseases.
II. O. Brown was the first to make a
success of the business, and his neigh

A Point Well Taken.

The Cleveland World draws a good
comparison when 1t says that IL pond
filled up when 1t rained and ran dry
during the drouth. the man who said
that the difference was due to the kind
of wood Of which the pole that measured
it was made would be laughed at for a
fool. But that is about what Bryan and
Company say of agricultural products
and gold and silver money.
In 1894, as the World points out, there
was q scarcity of potatoes in a large
part of the country and they sold for so
cents a bushel. Next year everybody
wanted to raise potatoes. A man over
in the state Of Nebraska put in a whole
section to potatoes. Six hundred and
forty acres Of potatoes will feed whole
country. There was big crop that
year and potatoes went down to 10 or ~
cents per bushel. 1t hardly paid to dig
them. The fellow who put in $40 acres
did not try to dig his. He told his
neighbors that IL anybody wanted pota-
toes. to come to his farm and dig for
themselves, and there would be no
charge.
Flax seed was worth sl.0O per bushel
q few years ago. All went in for rails
ing it. 1t didn't take long to knock the
price down to 70 cents bushel. That
was not because silver had declined. but
because they were raising too much fax.
For so years before 1870 the worlds
total production in silver amounted to
3l.els. 2O9. 900: from 1870 to 1894 the total
production was $s.o2l. .l2s. 100. The same

We even dsbase cur standard OF value,
men say that still you would have the

But so did the Indians have the same

So were the mountains piled fun of min

The same atmosphere eHwrapt this conti-

forest; and the rivers bore no single liv-
ing thing except the Indian and his canoe,

was no 'indusirial co-operation,' because

BRYAN and the ANGEL.

Abou Bill Bryan, may his tribe decrease!
Awoke one night from a deep dream Of
peace,
And saw within the moonlight In his room.
Making 1t rich and silverlike in bloom,
An angel writing in book of gold.
Exceeding gall made Bill Bryan bold,
And to the presence In the room he said:
What writest thou?" The vision raised
its head
And. with look of what he might ex-
pect,
Answered: Their names who'll get it in
the neck
"And am I One?" asked Abou. II don't
know"
Replied the angel Abou spake more low,
But cheeriy still, and said: II pray thee,
sir,
Write me as one not liable to err"
The angel wrote and vanished. The next
night
1t came again with a great November
light,
And showed the names Of those knocked
galley-west;
And 10, Bill Bryan's name led all the rest!

Comment of the Facts.

For the benefit Of followers Of q po-
litical faith that is based entirely on
the supposition that the country wants
more full legal tender silver dollars the
Pittsburg Dispatch gives few figures:
1.-The mints have coined since 1873,
431 1884, silver dollars OF this
amount $40, ,S52, 900 were lying idle In the
Treasury at the last statement. Dur
ing all these years the largest actual
circulation Of these silver dollars was
67,547, 900 in December, 1890. The peo-
pie have never wanted more than TO-
100000 of them, although there have
been hundreds of millions waiting for
the chance to circulate.
Beyond that the fact proves the ex-
act emptiness of the claim that the
public need Is for full legal tender
money. The silver dollars are full
legal tender and they do not circulate.
The silver certificates are not legal
tenders, and they circulate to the ex-
tent of 1881 ,OOO, 900. With ruthless dis
regard of the silverite dogmas the peo-
pie refuse to take the legal tender coin,
but take into circulation the non-legal
tender paper.
Yet the sllverites are preaching from
every stump In the land the imaginary
idea that the people are suffering for
the lack OF what is lying in the Treas
ury waiting for them, and which they
decline to use!'

thing has happened to silver that hap
pened to wheat-the world Is producing
too much Of it. Why. the World asks,
should the government take silver bull
lion and coin 1t into dollars at the eX-
pense of the people and give the bullion
owners one good legal tender dollar for
every 53 cents worth of silver?
Wouldn't it be Just as fair for the gov
eminent to take wheat and give dollar
a bushei for it. when it is only worth so
cents on the market?
Or. put in another way, why should
the government try to legislate so that
a bushel of wheat which now buys an
ounce of silver would hereafter, accord
ing to Bryan, buy only half an ounce?
