While Boston was in the field yesterday
managers Murray and Seeley put their
heads together and eliminated little
deal that will be received as welcome
news by the local iaity. Dolan, the Bos-

This gave the Grays an additional
pitcher, In consequence OF which Knorr
was sent to Pawtucket. Some thought
that "Colt" rriel would have to go, but
his stick work and fielding favored him,

The button business has been profit

The favorite one of these seems to be

THE = SITUATION.

Labor is one of the best measures of
value. From 1860 to the panic demo
cratic free trade panic) Of 1893 wages in
this country have advanced So per cent
and their purchasing power about ~
per cent as measured by a gold basis.
If gold has advanced as claimed by
the Bryanites, one hundred per cent,
then wages have advanced one hun
dred and fifty-eight per cent. Gold has
not advanced. It has been more stable
than any other commodity. It is the
best money metal the world has ever
produced. All the leading nations of
the world have so declared.
The people have been solving the
money question for over 600 years and
they have settled it in favor Of gold al
the basis, because two metals cannot
be used at the same time. and gold is
preferable to silver because the people
prefer it, and they prefer 1t because
its value ductuates less than silver, be-
cause it is over thirty-two times lighter
than silver and therefore thirty-two
times more convenient than silver as
q basic metal. To change this you
must change the minds Of the people Of
the leading nations of the earth, and
that 10 bigger job than the Bryanites
can possibly perform. With gold as
the standard We can use q large
