Sound money Democrats. recognizing
the peril that contronts the country and
desiring TO do their part 70 avert n ma
tional calamity. are eager to do what
yer may contribute TO that end Som.
Z IL them think that much Is to be gained
Z by putting a ticket in the tielu. Others
prefer to take the shorter cut and vote
the Republican ticket.
Those who favor sound money Dem
Y ocrat!c ticket do so because they think II
4 will attract some Democratic votes that
might go for Bryan and because they
think II the best way to secure 4 hearing
b for sound money Democratic speakers.
We are Inclined to agree with this view
and TO regard with favor the proposition
to name a sound money Democratic
ticket.
Such a ticket will certainly draw votes
that might go to Bryan ard OF course 1t
will give sound money Democratic
speakers the opening they desire. And
= the more they talk sound money and
\ Show the results that would follow the
adoption OF free silver policy. the more
clearly they will make 1t appear that
! the sure5t way to defeat the Chicago
ticket Is TO vote for Mckinley.
We do not believe that the sound mon
ey Democratic ticket will attract the

Z to hit the free silver fallacy blow from

1 who appreciate the full cnormlty OF the
4 free silver proportion will not waste

and the free silver champions insist that
1t is II very prosperous country. while
our own country Is sliding down grade.
They lay special emphasis on the fact
that the poor are growing poorer In this
country.
Well. Mexico is not very far away. 1t

Strange that It has not occurred to our

enjoy some OF It's great silver standard

The free silver champions should ex-

It seems to be much easier to talk
about pressing Grown OF thOrns on the

SUBURBAN SCHOOLS,
A Plea IN Their iichnif-Their Value I'm
drrcstimntrd by Patrons.


To tho Editor OF the intcIlgenccr.
SlR:- Regarding your valuable paper
as friend TO education and as n means
for the advancement OF the youth of our
county and state. | beg your indul-
Ecnce for Il tile space TO present the
public school system OF our county,
outside Of tho city.
A prevailing sentiment and feeling
which pervades the minds OF a great
number OF our suburban fathers aud
mothers much to the dctriment OF our
graded schools along the pike, Is that
the graded schools IN Philadelphia dis
triCt are not equipped sufficiently we'll
to teach their boys and EIrls.
This, TO my mind, IL Brlevous mis-
take, and / trust some Of us VIII, upon
closer examination OF our system. thu
environments and the efficiency OF our
teachers patrUnlze and give tone TO
our home schools.
| believe this lack OF appreciation OF
our schools IL due to tho. lack OF tinfor-'
nation concerning them. Very few, In
deed, OF our parents know that we
have n graded course Of study, culni-
mating In graduation upon completion
OF tho course, and the reception OF n
diploma issued by the state supcrin-
tcndent of schools: but we have, and In
deed, rs the course Is augmented In
the graded schools by rhetoric. litera-
turc, algebra, physics. physiology, geo
Eranhy and geometry. II course
not second TO the one In the city OF
Wheeling.
Then the conditions are more favor
able In the suburban schools; there are
not 90 many outside influences brought
to bear upon the mind OF the child.
which eliminates the desire TO study and
fills the mind with useless and vile
thoughts.
a Just comparison OF the work done
In the city and suburban schools ought
to convince the most radical city school
enthusiast. have In my mind boys
OF eleven and twelve who are really
advanced TO where boys OF thirteen
and fourteen are advanced In the city
schools. and this Is said in all kindness
10 the city educators, but the environ
mcnts and facilities arc better.
Our school board In Triadelphil dis
trict Is not composed of men with an
tIquated ideas: they are "up-to-date"
men and each year finds new and better
equipment In the schools.
Now what We want to do IS TO patron
lie the suburban school; encourage the
teachers In charge by our support and
help make the equipment better by some
timely and cordial monetary aid, ap-
paratuS. library, etc, cxactcd from
what We will save from motor fare and
tuition.
am yours for the good OF the
SUBURBAN SCHOOLS.

The silver advocate should begin to
explain some things. and they should
got at their explanation quickly. For
Instance, they should explain how It Is
that an American silver dollar can be
exchanged In Mexico for two Mexican
silver dollars, although Mexican silver
dollar contains ~ grains more OF stand.
nr1 silver thnn there Is Ia au American
dollar.
In other words, they should explain
how It comes that tho silver dollar OF
sllvcr.stand0rd Mexico buys but half rs
much In Its own country M our silver
dollar buys there. 1t Is II fact that this
Is the ratlnG uf the two dollars In Mex
leo. and this IL one OF the hard facts
which the silver champions should cx-
plain.
The true explanation Is that the Amer
lean silver dollar IL as good us n gold
dollar, and 1t Is rs good rs Il gold dollar
because the government OF tho United
States keeps It 80. II we had the free
and unlimited coinage OF silver indie
pendent OF the action OF the great trad
Ing nations OF the world the government
of the United states would be under no
obligation tn hold up the silver dollar to
an equality with the gold dollar, and 1t
would not have the power to do It.
This IL the difference between the Sill
yer dollar coined by the government for
the government and in limited quaint
ties, and the silver dollar coined by the
government FOR private persons in un-
limited quantities. 1t Is difference
which the advocates OF free coinage do
not take the trouble to explain, but the
explanation is vital.

A OTHER EXPOSITION.
Efforts are Being Made to Have One Held
at Omaha in 1898.


An association has been incorporated
under the name of the Trans-Mlss-
issippi and international Exposition,
the object of which is to hold an inter-
national exposition at Omaha begin
August ], and closing October 81, 1892
The purpose is to make it distir ctive
western exposition, though all the
states and territories will be invited to
participate, and the national govern.
ment will be requested to erect a suit
able building in which to make a
national exhibit.
The association is inviting different
commercial bodies throughout the
country to use their influence to secure
such legislation in the different states
as will result in each state being
credibly represented, and also to- urge
upon their repre- in congress
to lend their aid to the passage of a
bill that has been introduced in the
interest of the exposition.
In the event of this exposition being
held, Oregon can not afford to be be-
hind in the manner of exhibit. The
products of the state won worldwide
reputation at the worlds fair in
Chicago. and thereby attracted
many desirable immigrants, but the
exhibits made at Chicago was nothing
to compare with what the state can do
If the Omaha exposition is to be held,
Oregon should have one of the
largest exhibits and most attractive
buildings there, and to this end every
commercial body in the state should
labor,

Rumors stin Rampant.

There really appears to be some
basis for,the rumor that the o. r. &-N
car shops will be removed to Walla
Walla. Railroad men generally think
the matter is at least being considered
by the high officials of the road. Most
of the breaks in cars and engines occur
between Pendleton and Spokane and
much time would be saved by having
the repairs made. at this end of the
line.
1t is said that engines running be-
tween Umatilla and Portland do not
need to go into shops more than once
in two or three years. and that there is
no advantage in having the shops at
Albina. Another disadvantage to re-
pairs being made at Albina is the diff
iculty of getting dry lumber in that
damp climate. Lumber could be
brought to Walla Walla at no expense
to the company, as trains of empty cars
are continually being sent this way
from. Portland, and it would cost no
more to load few of them with lum-
