In considering the question Of free sill
yer coinage and the effect it will have
upon the national integrity have often
shown what will be the inevitable result
in the case OF the capitalist and those
whose money is engaged in employing
labor. There is another phase, how
ever, and one which more deeply con-
Germs the working people. The working
men in this country now have nearly
$4,000, 100000 deposited in saving
banks throughout the country. IL is
estimated that this sum il held among
nearly 100000 depositors, hence the
individual accounts average u little less
than 500 each. This represents the
savings OF people who have perhaps
pinched along and denied themselves
comforts that they might lay by some
thing FOR rainy day. When those
workingmen gave those dollars into the
keeping OF the savings banks each dollar
was worth 100 cents, and each dollar il
worth that today. But were free coin

OF the country would find nearly 81 ,0O0,-

The aggregate for the whole country

In view Of this fact, says the Ameri

Idaho to day has about as un-
promising looking collection of news
papers as can be found any place.
They indicate poverty-stricken COM
munities. 1t is not a matter of sur
prise that home-seekers and invest
ors avoid the places sending out
newspapers that in themselves are
evidences of lack of energy and pro-
gress. This is no fault of the news
paper. We have never yet known
one editor or publisher who did not
make his paper even better than his
patronage justified. He is always
willing to work eighteen hours out
of the twenty -four and eat only two
meals day in order that he may
get out the best possible paper. As
soon as the people of Idaho appre-
ciate this fact and patronize their
local papers, just so soon will the
tide of immigration be turned in her
direction. A prosperous newspaper
ALWAYS indicates prosperous COM
munity.-Pocatello Tribune.

DR.. Talmage tells why newspaper
men learn 10 think of humbug and

are compelled to see more Of the sham
OF the world than any other profession.
Through every newspaper office all day
go all the weaknesses OF the world-all
the vanities that want to be pulled, all
the reyenges that want to be reaped,
all the mistakes that want TO be cor
rected, all the dull speakers that want
TO be thought eloquent, all the mean
ness that wants to get its wares no
ticed gratis in order TO save the tax of
the advertising column. Through the
editorial and reportorial rooms all the
follies and shams OF the world are seen
day after day, and the temptation is
neither to believe In God, man or
woman. II is no surprise to me that

teal men. only wonder that news

Gold is an aristocrat, says Senator
Jones. It holds it's court in the palace
of kings and dwells in the mansions
Of the millionaire; but silver is the
faithful servant and humble friend OF
him who tolls to make his country
greater and the world better. Gold is
the spirit of evil that breeds folly and
vice and sin and crime, but silver is
an angel of mercy that cheers the
heart Of the hungry and brings conso-
lation to the needy. 1t cheers the
breast of the poor plowboy as he whis-
ties merrily to the jingle of few
dimes ia his breeches pocket, and it
brings comfort to the over-worked
seamstress whose comforts in life are
measured by the swiftness of her
needle. Pure and white like Diana,
whose sacred emblem it is, silver is the
symbol OF purity and benevelence, a
minister Of love, the currency OF
honesty.
