saying the effect of free silver would be
to lower wages and to cut down the
value of savings. Here is a cOntradic-
ton in one line. The only way the
value Of savings could be cut down
would be by general raise in prices
which would make property more value.

Valuable. How any such process
could reduce wages is beyond the COM
prehension of the average man. When
property begins to become more valu-
able production is always stimulated.
When production is stimulated there
is an Increased demand for laborers.
When there is an increased demand for
labOrers there is raise in wages.
When gold men talk about paying debts

talking such foollshness as shows the

GENERAL GRosvENOR of Ohio, the
congressional manager of the McKin-
ley boom has madethis statement which
seems to come nearer to telling some
thing than anything heretofore heard
this spring from Mckinley or any of
his henchmen. He declares:
The Ohio platform and Governor Nc
Kinley's speeches in the Campbell de-
bate and at the Marquette Club are as
sound ON the money question as Mr..
Reeds London interview or the Maine
platform.
Governor Mckinley will accept the
nomination at st Louis on sound
money platform and will carry out as
president the sound money promises OF
the party.
The Ohio platform Of 1896 is identi-
Cal in effect with the New York and
Massachusetts platforms and the at
tempts being made to discredit the can
didate ia advance will not effect any
thing"
It's now time silver republicans were
either beginning to say they didn't mean
it, or else prepare for leap from their
party.

which is classed, not as necessity but
a luxury, can better be endured than
any other. While this is true, it is
also true that the bicycle is about as
much of necessity as it is luxury.
To thousands of working people in the
cities it IS their regular means of
transit to and from work, and is to
them as much of a necessity as horse
is to farmer. OF course there is no
more hope of destroying this trust than
thousands of others that feed on the
fat of the land.

UNsAvoRY smells and odors again
come from the Topeka insane asylum
Another inmate has died with suDdry
and divers bruises aud abrasiOns on his
face and back. A coroners jury i'm
panneled at the asylum declared he
died from heart failure due to sudden
exertiOn being in a debilited condition.
But at the home of his brother in
Jewel county another inquest was held
ut which 1t was shown that the body
was in fairly nourished condition
and that the twelve or fifteen bruises
and abrasionS had the appearance of
having been caused three or for days
before death contrary to the statement
OF the asylum authorities. OF course
in handling insane persons force must
undoubtedly at times be used, and they
may even bruise and injure themselves
IN resisting an attendant or trying to
escape. But at any rate there is IN
this case as much room for charges of
Encouragement and ill treatment as
in many of those of which the republi-
cans made so much noise two wears
ago.

THE Washington Star prints the fol.
lowing graphic description of the treat
ment Of the silver question in a Texas
republican convention stocked largely
with e5IUted delegates. Most Of them
HAD HI idea that free coinage at six
tsSA to one meant sixteen dollars for
eTEy man more than now, and were
In favor of the proposition. A white
leader seeing that such resolutions
would be out of harmony with the dec.
larationsOf the republican conventions
wanted to oppose it:
"Gemnen OBJ de cOnvenshun" said
one of the cOlored delegates, ''I'm
somewhat disposed ter favor de free
coinage question. If it will glib us
more money, den I'm fur it, tooth,
hand, toe nail, horse and hide. It's
jest whut we need. De cOlud race hab
neber had der portion OBJ de spondu-
lix OATS manufactured in Washington.
But befO' we pass desc resolutions let
us here from our friend ober dar."
That was the opportunity the white
leader wanted.
I'll tell you, fellow republicans"
he said, what all this means. This
free coinage matter is scheme of the
democrats to take everything away
from the negro and give it all to the
white man. Sixteen to one, my
friends, means nothing more nor less
than sixteen dollars for the white man
and one for the negro; sixteen dollars
for the democrat and one dollar for the
republican"
There was commotion following
this speech, and the convention unan-
imously voted down the free coinage
resolutions and adjourned, vOwing
vengeance on the democrats.

THE screed promulgated by Exon
gresham VIM. r. Morrison of Illinois
brings to the mind in very forceable
way the power of the little busy buz-
zing presidential bee as a worker of the
eleventh hour confessions. 1t is only
a few months since Morrison was do
ing his leVelest to get some of Grover
and Johns currency bills through Con
gress. He has no: become convinced
yet Of course that free silver except by
International agreement woulid do, not
withstanding he makes this most SOL
emn confession. Speaking of Carlyle's
speech he says:
"He also calls attention 20 the low
wages paid in Mexico and the silver
countries of the East Us evidence of
how silver reduces wages. But wages
in Mexico were below ours when their
silver dollar was worth as much any
where in the world as our gold dollar.
This makes the common man believe
that the lower rate of wages in Mexico
ard elsewhere comes of other causes
than the low value Of their silver dol
lax. 1t would, l think, be Assured to
credit their progress to free silver, yet
the tact remains that two countries
which have achieved progress in the
last twenty years have been Japan and
Mexico, where silver is still the pr'n-
cipal coin. japan has jast won her
place among great nations and the
progress o. Mexico is hardly less re-
markable."

THEquestion as to the validity of the

A BICYCLE trust is among the next
scheduled arrivals in this busy world
of many wants and few pleasures. 1t
is generally believed and apparently
rightly, that bicycle can be manu-.
featured at no greater cost than a sew
ing machine. Many of the patents
will soon expire so as to lop of the US
ual royalties, and competition if full
and free would soon bring the price of
a bicycle to comparatively nominal
sum. Hence cupidity, always awake,
begins to look toward forestalling any
such possibility. Some may say to
Themselves that a trust on an article
