WHICH SIDE ARE YOU oNq

Some Test Questions for Undecided yoe
ers to Consider.
Are you opposed to a sudden oontrac
ton in the volume of money now in
use? A free-coinage law would immedi.
,ately drive ou. of circulation over $780,.
0oO,000 in gold.
DO you believe in stable measure OF
values which shall be fair to both debtor
and creditor? The sixteen to one
scheme would put this country on a
tiuctuating silver basis.
Have you money in the bank or loaned
iout to anyone? Free silver would cut
the value of your savings in two.
Are you prepared to abandon the
monetary standard which is used by all
the great commercial nations of the
world and adopt that of China, India
and other cheap labor countries? If not
you should protest against free silver.
Do you believe that common honesty
demands that debts contracted in 100
cent dollars should be paid In money
worth as much as that which was bor-
rowed? Free coinage means the re-
pudiation of one-half of all obligations.
Do you know of any way in which
estly, except by hard work? If not, you
should condemn the quacks who are
promising the people to make them all
rich by legislation which will debase
the currency.
Would you like to see capital abun-
dant and interest low? Money is far
more plentiful and interest rates are
lower in gold standard nations than in
the silver-using countries.
Do you consider it important to the
interests of trade and industry that
there should be no uncertainty in re-
gard to the basis of the country's finan-
ces? Then you must oppose the sense
less agitation which is checking the in
.yestment of capital and depressing busi-
ness. esstassB ~; ;s.,;sas, szs-~s.. l,-ps-...
Would you like to see the PURCHASING
power of the worlsingman's wages cut
down one-half by q currency law which
should declare that so cents worth of
silver was ''1ollar?" Under free coin
age this country would have silver
iionometallism. With double prices for
everything the workers buy. '''
Are you willing to bring on q finan-
cial papic, caused by the calling in of
loans through fears of free-silver repu-
diation, merely for the sake of trying
cheap money experiments which have
always resulted in disaster2 If not, and
if you want an honest dollar and pros
perity, you should work and vote
against all attempts to dsbase the cur

Pittsburg, June 29.-Captain Charles
Bachelor, the well-known river man,
and one of Pittsburg's most prominent
men, died tonight from congestion OF
the brain. He was 73 years old and
was son of John 8. Bachelor, who in
the early days of Pittsburg came here
from Philadelphia. He was President
of half dozen corporations and Di
rector in twice as many more. OF late
years he has confined himself to the af
fairs of the Keystone Bank, of which
he was the head. For over 30 years
he has been prominently identified
with everything of public nature in
Pitts burg.

1t Produces Almost the Effect of Terror
on the Mind.

on the Mind.
The building is so far beyond any
familiar proportions that at first sigh,
all details are lost upon it's broad front.
The mind and judgement are dazed
and staggered The earth should no,
be able to bear such weight upon its
crust without cracking and bending
like an overloaded table. On each side
the colonnades run curving out like
giant arms, always open to receive the
nations that go up there to worship
The dome broods over all, like giants
head motionless in meditation.
The vastness of the structure takes
hold of man as he issues from the
street by which he has come from SAINT
Angelo. In the open space in the
square and in the ellipse between the
colonnades and on the steps, two hun
dred thousand men could be drawn ur
in rank and file, horse and foot and
guns. Excepting it be on some special
occasion, there are rarely more than
two or three hundred persons in sight.
The paved emptiness makes one draw
a breath of surprise, and human eyes
seem too small to take in all the fat
ness below, all the breadth before, and
all the height above
Taken together, the picture is too
big for convenient sight. The impress
sion itself moves unwieldly in the
cramped brain. A building almost
FIVE hundred feet high produces mon
strous effect upon the mind. Set down
in words, description of it conveys no
clear conception; seen for the first time,
the impression produced by i. cannot
be put into language. 1t is something
like shock to the intelligence, per-
haps, and not altogether pleasan
one. Carried beyond the limits of a
mistake, exaggeration becomes carica-
ture, but when it is magnifed beyond
common measures, it may
acquire an element approaching to
terror. The awe-striking giants of
mythology were but magnified men.
The first sight of St. Peters affects
one as though, in the everyday streets,
walking among ones fellows, one
should meet with a man forty feet
high. Marion Craw ford, in the Cen
tury for July.
