IL gold and silver bullion were money,
Why the laws of this and other coun-
tries defining the degree of fneness OF
the metul, the amount OF alloy In the
coins. their weight and the value Of
each coin. and making them legal
tender?
The fnlsehood resorted TO by the gold
standard advocates has for its object
TO deceive the American people into
voting for a policy by which one-half
OF the standard money of this country
was stricken down. thus reducing the
volume OF the mone- which fixed The
values OF all the other property, from
S''SOo'ooo,0OO TO $3,25O, o00. 900: und

property valuesi paralyzing industry,
arresting enterprise, rendering aeri-
culture. the controlling industry of this
country. unprofitable; producing on
amount of financial distress never
before known in this country.
and causing tens OF thousands
OF men TO be denied employment.
and their families To suffer for the " ant
OF the ncccssarics OF life. and causing
those who still have work TO work on
short time. and filling the country with
trnmps. All this wrong and suffering
In order TO increase the value of bonds
ana other credits and money in the
hands of the rich while sinking the
great mass of the people, the working
people, the common people, the real
creators OF wealth. deeper and deeper
into poverty and wretchedness.
viii the people allow themselves IN
be deceived by such device into help
ing to perpetuate the gold standard
policy, and TO put themselves into a
condition. OF financial slavery 10 the
money changers and aristocrats of
America and Europe?
The man who talks about 50-cent dol.
arsshows his ignorance on the subject,
or, II he Is not ignorant, that he is at
tempting by falsehood and fraud TO de
ceive others to their great injury.
You may inquire what influence I
think the free and unlimited coinnge
OF silver Mt the ratio of 10 TO l will have
on the purchasing power of gold and
silver money. If such coinage shall in
crease the volume of circulating money
the effect will be, TO the extent of that
increase, 10 raise the prices Of commod-
tiles, and in the same proportion 10 re-
duce the purchasing power OF money.
Stated in another way, IL will make
property dearer and money cheaper in
proportion 20 the amount OF the In
crease OF the volume of money. And
this Is the reason why the plutocrats
so earnestly oppose free coinage. II II
their policy and TO their interest to
have dear money and cheap property
and labor. While IL Is TO the interest
and should be the policy Of the indus
trial classes who make the wealth OF
the country. who haze q sufficient sup
ply OF money TO stimulate enterprise
and industry, and make the country
prosperous and the people contented
and happy. And by restoring silve. as
part Of the standard money the de-
mand forgold will be somewhat reduced.
and II will, TO thnt extent, be less valua-
bic as compared with the property Of the
country. But the free coinage Of silver
will cause no serious disturbance TO the
business OF the country.

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. I.incoin Nelson. of Mafstfieid, Mo-,
writes: "f'or six years I have been .
sufferer from scfofuious affection Of
the glands of my neck, aud all efforts
OF physicians IN Washington, n. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and 81. Louis failed TO
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here. my
physician urged me TO submit Co a re.
moval OF the gland. AT this critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S..
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began TO disappear.
aud now IL is entirely gone. though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.SS. long ago.
I would have escaped years Of misery
and saved over Stso." =
This experience is like that OF ali who
suffer with decp-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts TO the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. Is the only
real blood remedy; II gets at the root OF
the disease and forces II out perma-

GETS A PICH ESTATE.
A Woman Proves Herself the Widow
of Wealthy COlOradan.

LEADVILLE (Col). Oct 31.-About a
month ago A. T. Roache, wealthy real
estate dealer, died in this city. He was
supposed to have been unmarried, and
left all his property to his mother and a
cousin.
Not long ago a handsome young
woman reached here from San Fran
cisco, claiming to be Mrs. Megiveny.
wife Of Roache. She put her case in the
hands of a prominent attorney, and has
established the fact that she is the
widow of Roache, and that the latter's
real name was Megivney, but this fact
was known to but few friends.
The couple We're married in 1894, but
did not live happily, and the wife went
to the Pacific Coast with the under
standing that she should sue for di-
vorce. Fortunately she did not apply
for a divorce, and a decree of the court
gave her half of the estate, which is
reputed to be worth $4,000.

A Stammering Statesman.

The Right Hon. David Robert Plum
.ket (now Lord Rathmore). who sat in
the House of Commons for many years
as a member for the University of
Dublin, was a stammerer and yet one
of the most eloquent men in the
House. The impeachment in his speech
was not a. slight one, and at times
made him drop a word that stuck, and
substitute another. While he was at
the office Of works, and had to answer
questions in the House for that de-
Ilartment the stammering habit seemed
to grow upon him. In the glowing
rhythm of set speech, however, he was
able to throw over his weakness, and
in his eloquence there was more poetic
fervor than the House is nowadays ac-
customed to, and he invariably sue
c6eded in impressing his hearers
