THOUGHTS OF THE THINKERS.
ruE FRAUD or rREE s11yrn.
dor Mr.. Bryan's campaign Of lon


(For Mr.. Bryan's campaign of 1907
1t is true and justly true, that any
thing which claims to be free in this
ssland of the free,'' commends itself by
that claim. IL it can sustain it's claim
to freedom. or IL just right to freedom,
it may ask and expect large favor of
American freemen.
Can so-called Stree silver" do this!
What is the true meaning of Stree sill
vcr"? Primarily, it e that the
government would coin it free of charge
for the bullion owners. This is the
definite and simple meaning OF ''free
silver and we sec. at the very outset of
the examination. that it has no claim of
the nature Indicated.
Is it free in competition with gold
and other precious metals for Il lit
For thousands of years it has enjoyed
this freedom as itdoes still; bnt that is
exactly what its supposed friends but
real enemies do not ask for it.. Let us
not get confused by supposing that no
one is IL friend of silver except he adj
vocates the proposed measures of the
| silver miners. These latter. instead of
asking free competition, ask that this
nation shall defend and protect silver
against free competition, i'll which it
has fallen so far us to be practically
out of the race, as a money standard;
in short, that the supposed power of a
great nation shall endeavor to make 81
cents of value in silver as good as 100
cents in gold throughout the world,
thus giving our alleged silver dollar a
fiat reinforcement of 40 cents or a gov
ernmental protection of nearly 100 per
cent. In no whatever can this be
called free. 1t is,in fact ndmanifestly,
the very reverse of free.
This alleged silver goddess of liberty
may be fairly Judged by the company
she keeps. She represents the freedom
of Mexico, China and Japan; and we
see at once that she isn't standard bred.
A. standard bred goddess or filly would
scorn such slow company as that. To
transfer the goddess to the turf she
proves by her company and her bulk
and weight that she is much too heavy
for anything but a silver grey Norman
dray horse and has no marked resem'
blance to golden sorrel thoroughbred
or IL golden bay standard bred. But
to call back the alleged goddess, there
is another sense in which she may bt
thought free; she promises dishonest
debtors the legal freedom to violate
their contracts and pay their debts i,
81 cent dollars. And this freedom aut
the freedom from governmental coin
age charges are the only true meaning.
Of 'sfree s%ilver;;'' briefly, the freedom o
our gift to silver bullion owners, ant
the freedom of fraud. Is This tl.,
kind of freedom that comnends itsel
TO American freemeu? We are poo
indeed il it does. Let us continue tt
prove that it does not.

THE JEWS THANKSGIVING.

There is serious protest OH the part
of the Jews, against the Presidents
Thanksgiving proclamation, in that it
asks us to seek Goods blessiugand for
giveness through the mediation of Him
who taught us how to pray"
The Jews still insist that they knew
how to pray before the advent of Christ
and that this language is calculated to
leave them out of the Thanksgiving OBJ
servance, as it does all people not dis
tinctively Christian. And every true
and candid Christian must admit that
this is true and that the Jews are right
and the President wrong.
Every Christian may thank Christ
as we'll as God, on this, as on all
other proper occasions, but every
human being may, and, directly
or indirectly, does, thank God for
blessings manifold; and this is the
true and only true meaning of our
Thanksgiving. Any other meanine
that may be given it is false in that ii
transcends or seeks to. transcend the
true meaning.
1t remains, however, not because OF
human prociamations nor despite this
unbelief or the belief of any jew o,
Gentle. that the Christ is still The
Christ.

closely akin to malleable iron. 1t was

THE GATE CITY RAILROAD.
1t is Building Slowly Towards Shreve-
port

PSAN
Mr.. w. B. Spearman of Atlanta,
Tex, who is large property owner
up in the Third ward, of Caddo
parish, was in Shreveport Thursday
and a Times reporter interviewed
him concerning the progress of the
Gate City road, which is quietly but
surely making its way to Shreve-
port.
He says contract for six miles of
grading was recently let to Mr..
Grigsby, aud that the work is being
prosecuted right along. Also that
the grading and all the work on the
road is being done in first class
style, as if it was intended to some
day use this road for other pur-
poses than a mill road, to which
purpose it is now devoted.
The bridge across Sulphur river
which was completed some time
ago, is a splendid steel structure,
suitable tor the best railroad in the
country. This is accepted as evil
dence by all the people of that
section and the railroad people
generally, that it is the intention
of the company to make a regular
freight and passenger route of it
some day.
When the six mile contract has
been finished the road will have
reached the state line between
Louisiana and Texas, which point is
eleven miles south of the Sulphur
bridge. Eight miles more will bring
it to Jim Hoss' place on Caddo
prairie. The road has been sur
veyed to Cross bayou where the
line crosses into the city,
1t seems to be an open secret
that the road was quietly pur-
chased some time ago by the Iron
Mountain Company, with the in
tention of using this route to bring
the Iron Mountain direct from Tex
arkana to Shreveport, instead of
all the way around the Texas and
Pacific, and Marshall, Tex. Shreve-
port has been asked to help this
line with a subsidy, but the matter
has gone no further,-Shreveport

the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply TO a cOnstipated cOndi-

family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families. and is

who value good health. Its beneficial

one remedy which promotes internal

which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold By all rep

If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one

A GOOD ITEM SPOILED.
A Hotel Clerk Jumped at Conclusions
and Had the Reporter After a
Red Hot Item.

This morning the reporter whlle
looking over the Huckins House
register found the following capital
lsts registered; c. S. Tuckerman
and W. A. Cove of Boston Mass
achusetts, Levi Sprague and Char
les ]. Gidden, Lowell, Mass, H. A.
Whitley, Wilton, N. H. and g. W.
Foster Dallas, Texas.
Mr.. Harmon was on watch and he
said 81 think these gentlemen are
cotton goods manufacturers and
are looking for location to estao-
lish a factory. They were pointed
out to the reporter and he jumped
on to the smallest one in the bunch
which proved to be Mr. &. W.
Foster of Dallas, and when we told
him we we're after the news as to
their visit here, he said:' We ar
rived here last night and are simply
going through Texas on an in
spection tour. The gentlemen with
me are officers aud stock holders OF
the Southwestern Telegraph and
Telephone Company and are out to
inspect their property. Mr.. Foster
is General Superintendent of the
North Texas division and will show
the gentleman over the state, that
is. his part of the territory. They
left this morning over the Trans
Continental railroad,
The item which we claimed was
spoiled is the fact that we expected
them to remain here and give our
city such a cotton factory as they
have in Lowell, Massachusetts,, and
we believe when we told Clerk
Harmon what they were up to, we
detected a tear in his eye for he,
like the reporter, had made up hls
mind that they would certainly
locate here if they once become
acquainted with our natural adj
vantages.

A Dig in the Ribs
Times.

Lightly and jocosely gwen is no
formidable matter, but when a con
stant uneasiness beneath your ribs
on the right side intimates that
your liver is out of order, you are
not to be envied. This sensation is
also accompanied by yellowness OF
skin ahd eyeballs, mouse colored
fur upon the tongue, sick headache,
nausea and other uncomfortable
indications, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is the remedy of all others,
and should be resorted to without
delay. Constipation and dyspepsia,
concomitant of liver trouble, are
also remedied by this unequalIed
regulating medicine, which the re-
cords OF nearly half a century, the
commendation of eminent members
of the medical profession, and the
daily experience of the invalid
world stamps as the first of its
class. In rheumatism, kidney and
bladder trouble is Incompatible. 1t
remedies nervousness and debility,
restores appetite and sleep, hastens
convalescence after exhausting NAL
aides, and greatly mitigates in
tirmities incident to old age.
