BRYAN ANSWERED.
The Dishonesty of the Popocrats Exposed
by Nal. Mckinley.

Mr.. BRYAN asks: Cannot the United
States establish financial system of its
own? Is it too weak and dependent to
do that?'
Mai. Mckinley replies: "The United
States now has financial policy which
in the main it has been pursuing since
the beginning of the government, and
which it does not mean to change until
il can fiud better one"
Mr.. Bryan assumes in his question
that the United States has borrowed a
financial system, while it ought to orig
mate one for itself. Maj. Mckinley re-
plies that the United States already has
y financial system which is its own.
That cannot be disputed. The Eng
lish financial system embraces no full
legal tender silver. The continental
financial systems differ in many re-
spects from that of the United States.
Gold cuts no figure in the financial sys-
tens of the silver standard countries.
Here it plays most important part.
But Bryan does not want the United
States to devise n financial system of its
own. He wishes it to adopt that of Mex
leo. To do that would not display much
originality. The Mexicans would be
pleased, of course, to see their ideas
copied by the Americans, but why
should this country pay them such
compliment?
The popocrat candidate not only
wants the United States TO abandon the
system it has devised, but he
wishes it TO take up with 4 secondhand
system, and that one in whose favor
nothing can be said. That proposition
is neither patriotic nor intelligent.
Maj. Mckinley contends that the
United States should not give up it's
own financial system for the worse sys-
tenn of Mexico or of India. but should
hold on TO its own until it can devise

WHERE is THAT MONEY!
The Men Who Passed the wiison-Gor-
man Bill Can Tell Us

Farmers, be on your guard, false
friends are trying to mislead you. AS
an illustration of this, take the case OF
aai eastern farm paper which is striving
to array class against class, stir up
sectional strife, embitter producers
against consumers, array the farmer
against the workingman and both
against the man controlling capital, all
with n view of making votes for free
silver. Such appeals to prejudice are
an insult to the intelligence of its
readers. Instead of dealing in truth
there are appeals to passion, and bit
terness of spirit may be engendered
that will leave scars long after this
campaign is settled.
The paper in question, after declar-
ing that on account of lower prices and
hard times. farmers got for their crops
last year, $4,000 900 less than in 1882,
asks in bold type who has that money?
Prices are lower. so the first ques-
ton TO be answered is; why are
prices love-" That is the meat of the
1t is not difficult to answer this.
Silver has nothing to do with it. Under
free coinage prices of farm products
have ruled as low or lower than now.
In 1859 spring wheat sold in Chicago
for so cents; in 1861 oats sold for 1917
cents in this market, and the same
year corn sold for 20 cents. Each of
these grains sold lower when silver
was coined free than they are selling
&c alDt ia,, hot no
value of silver and value of other COM
modities. Supply and demand fixes the
price of each.
But why are farm products low? The
answer is easy. Last year the corn
crop was the largest ever grown: like
wise oats; likewise potatoes. For two
years the cotton crop has been larger

and would be in such agony that it
was necessary to call in physician.

she concluded to try it. She found
that it always gave prompt relief. 1t
was seldom necessary to give the sec

DAM BROKEN.
Second Temporary Wall Weakened
Away by the Dredger's Stream

Thursday afternoon the dredger
turned a strong stream of mud and
water into the old channel of Nuuanu
river below Smiths bridge. \ dana
had been built across at the bridge,
leaving a basin between it and the
rock wall below. 1t was this place the
dredger started to fill up.
But when the water had risen sew
eral feet in the basin the dam at the
bridge gave way and an avalanche
started up the stream. All the yards
on the Kaumakapili point and several
on the college point were flooded. For
a few minutes there was great excite
ment in the flooded district. but the
water gradually subsidized into the new
channel. This is the second time a
dam at Smiths bridge has given way
under the severe water strain.

The Company known through

CAL IFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, it has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value of the remedy as medi-
cinal agent, and of the CUmpany's
efforts, is attested by the sale of
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose of
manufacturing and selling laxative
remedy. which would be more
pleasant to the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process OF manufact-
uring, figs are used, as they are
in their tendencies, but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination oil
plants known to be incidentally lax
alive, and to act most beneticially.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies are not
needed. If afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but if
in need of laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most general
satisfaction.

Suppose some party should arise at- tributing the hard times among the farmers to the use of seeders and self binders and thrashing machines and at tempt to convince them that to be plos- porous they must ademonetize all these implements and again scatter seed with their hands from bag slung over their shoulders, go back to the cradle or, bet ter, to the sickle in harvesting and the fail in thrashing Would not the farmer of today say that the world moves for ward, not backward; that it is con- stantly striving 10 tighten, not to in- crease manual labor? Suppose some other party should come into existence that would bemoan the hard times, de- clare that the use of railways is the sole cause and demand their "demonetiza- tion' and return to the freight wagon.

Any southern state which has begun to attract outside capital on q large scale or hopes to do so in the near fu- ture will make a deplorable blunder if it goes on record as fayoring the free coinage of silver" says the Baltimore News (Dem. ).
