So it appears that silver and wheat
have not kept company One has been
falling continually, while the other has
been rising and falling.
The farmer did not get less for his
wheat during 1SS8.92 because of the
"crime of 1873" but because of the in
creased production; but he got more for
his other crops, and at the same time
was paying less for the goods he bought
He paid in 1890 $150 for the self-bind-
ers which in 1880 cost $500. and sos for
the moving machine which in 1880 had
cost $50, and SIS for the steel plow
which in 1880 had cost $28; and so on
through the list of clothing and Of
nearly everything which the farmer
had to buy. In nearly all of those things
prices had been greatly reduced by new
inventions and cheaper processes of
manufacture.
The prices of farm products in 1891
are lower than those Of 1892. but that is
due to a panic which has demoralized
industry--a panic which was largely
due to the fear of drop to the silver
standard and which the adoption of
that standard would not allay, but in
tensify. Chicago Tribune.
The Farm Hands Share.
Is the farm hand to share with
the farm owner in the benefits
of free coinage? are wages to
be doubled along with the price
of wheat and corn and cotton and
everything else? If not, how is the
farm hand benefited if he has to WORK
as long and as hard to make his en-
ployer's crop, get no more for his labor
and have to pay twice as much out Of
his slender wages for everything he
buys? Will he not be. in fact, lose,
just in proportion as his employ
er is gamer? The high prices that
are expected to put money in the far.
mer's pocket, will they not operate tc
impoverish still further, if not to starve,

Mr.. Ridge moved an amendme to the
original motion requiring all employees
of the city to hereafter be passed upon
favoraby by Council before being EN-.
ployed. Bachman took the motion for
amendment seriously enough to oppose
it, noting the fact that there is no SINH

Commissioner and Engineer, there be-

appoint his own assistants and en-

Ridges amendment not being seconded
he limited that it be accepted by Wood,
the mover Of the original motion, but
that gentleman couldn't see it with Mr..
Ridges eyes and the amendment died.
The roll being called on the original
motion it was lost, Wood, Henry and
Bachman voting aye. Mr.. Moore
moved that Anon Huff and VIM. Meagle
be appointed additional sewer inspec-

ton appointing Huff and Meagle was
carried, Ridge only voting no. Mr..
Mason was asked whether three inspec-
tors would be needed, but he was not
very talkatite and referred the question
to DR.. Mcclure, who stated that such
matters were not exactly in his line,
but when it came to giving away the
right of the Council to individuals he
would always be found ready to speak.

repairs on the Putnam street bridge

A Call to Duty.


Major Mckinley realizes fully the ne
cessity Of education and organization in
the present campaign. In letter to a
connecticut Republican Mr.. Mckinley
said:
II have no doubt whatever as to sue
cess. but in order to make the victory
thorough and emphatic there is need Of
earnest, persistent and intelligent work.
Probably never in the history of the Re-
publican party has there been a greater
necessity for campaign of education
and organization.
That brief statement ought to be ac-
cepted by every Republican as call to
duty. Every Republican, every man
who regards the welfare of the country
and its people should get to work, ear
nestly, intelligently, for Republican sue.
cess, From present indications nothing
can prevent the triumph of Mckinley
and sound money, but success can be
assured only by vigorous campaign on
the part Of the Republicans. Cleveland
