Bryan's Questions.

16. 1t is evident that the other Euro
pean nations will not join in bimetallism
so long as England uses her great in
fluence against the double standard, |
and it is also evident that England will
not abandon the gold standard without
the consent of her fnanciers.
Is il safe to allow the fnanciers of
London to control the financial policy
Of the United States?
II. When the London bankers met
on the 22d day of September and pro-
tested against bimetallism, they pledged
themselves to secrecy.
Is it patriotic to allow the London
bankers to meet in secret and determine
the conditions that shall surround our
children?
Is. A gold standard increases the de-
mand tor gold, and thus increases the
purchasing power of an ounce of gold
throughout the world. English fnan-
ciers are, to large extent, the owners
of the bonds and mortgages which the
American people must pay.
Is it wise to allow these financiers to
fasten the gold standard upon the Uni
ted States, and thus increase the burden
of our bonds and mortgages by increas-
ing the purchasing power of our dol
lars?
10. Bimetallists contend that the pur-
chasing power of an ounce of gold has
been increased by legislation which
gives to gold a monopoly of mint
privileges.
Will republicans deny it?
20. Bimetallists contend that every
nation which goes to a gold standard
increases the strain upon gold, and that
the level of prices must continue to fall

metallism.
Will republicans deny this?

price of silver has been lowered by

A Notable Year.

During the year 1896 the advance in
electrical inventions was such as to
make the year remarkable in this re-
spect, if in no other. The completion
of some of the largest electric-4ight
plants in the world, and the adaptation
of the newest inventions and appliances
in this line, made it possible to furnish
power at q wonderfully reduced rate,
and: has laid the foundation for the
prosperity of a great many small estab-
lishments. One of the interesting
phases of electric power is that there is
no dirt, no rubbish, no cleaning up to
do, no engineer required, and no firing
up necessary. You press the button, SO
to speak, and the power is ready on de-
ms'nd. One Of the longest lines Of trans
mission is that from the Fresno plant,in
California, which is carried a distance
of IS miles. The Niagara Falls plant is
one Of the wonders of the world, the
company underselling steam power
and promising such further reduction
in price that the eyes of manufacturers
are already turned in this direction.

OREGON WOMEN.
How They Wore co.xed Into the Terrific

How They We're Coaxed Into the Territory
In Early Days.
There are plenty Of women in Ore
gon now" observed prominent Ore
gon politician who is here to see that
that state is not forgotten in the matter
of patronage during the next admins
tration, shut it is within the memory
of many of us when women were very
scarce there. We gave 1t out that we
wanted them for school teachers and
the like and encouraged them to come
out there, but the truth was the men
wanted them for wives. / remember
once we sent young man to Massa-
chusetts, where he was well acquaint-
ed. with orders to collect 100 young
women and to escort them back to
Oregon. We. guaranteed every one of
them one years employment. The
active man in the matter was fine
looking young man, who afterwards
served two terms in congress from our
state. He spent two months in select
ing the party. and started west with
them. On the trip out he courted one
of the school teachers on his own hook
and actually got her consent to q mar
riage on the arrival of the train at
Portland. The boys howled considers
bly, about it, claiming that he had
treated them unfairly in having first
choice, but there was lot of fine mar
riageable material left. Some of these
women are today the leading ladies of
the society of the state. More than
three-fourths of the hundred were mar
ried inside of three years, and many
in less than one year. A few of the
lot, however. are teaching school there
today, not that they did not have Of
fers, but because they would not &C.
cept any of the, fellows who offered
themselves. Now that Senator Mitchell
has about given up his contest to re-
turn as senator, he will likely be sue
cceded by gentleman who married
one of the party of school teachers to
which refer. He will bring his wife
here with him, and your Washington
folks can see for themselves the kind
of ladies we had out there for school
teachers. They can't be surpassed,
even if equaled, anywhere. 1 may be
an interested person, though. for it
happens that my wife was one of the
same party."-Washington Star.

jEAL GUS LIZARDS.

They Showed Their Anger When
Their Owner Fondled Others.
NJ. j. Delboeuf, q French scientist,
declares that lizards are actuated BY
feelings of love and may even become
victims of jealousy. In an article
which he wrote for French scientific
review, he tells about two lizards
which he kept in his house for several
years, both of which evinced unmistak-
able evidences of being troubled by the
same green-eyed monster which occa-
sionally plays havoc with the affairs of
human beings. ---- ..-,-
my first two lizards had been cap
tured-one in the Spanish Pyrenees and
the other at Tarn in France, wherefore
I called them the Spanish and the
French lizards, but afterwards gave
them the names Pedro and Pierre" says
NJ. Delboeuf.
''The two lizards lived on the best of
terms for several months. Pedro was
fond of following Pierre around, and
when Pierre one day was missing the
other was sad and disconsolate.
It was three weekes before the lost
lizard was found, and then he was dis
covered upder the stair carpet, where
he had probably been all the time. In
the meantime another lizard, was Sc
cured. The first two were males, while
the last conner was a female. Her ad-
vent brought on war between the two
former friends, which became so fierce
that they had to. be placed in separate
cages and released one at a time.
"Pedro was jealous of my preference
and caresses.' continued the scientist
''When he was on my sleeve I could
keep him for hours motionless by pass
ing my hand lightly along his body;
but if took Pierre or another lizard up
his rage broke out at once, and he
would jump upon him with his mouth
menacingly wide open. -
IF, however, I chose the large lizard,
he gradually drew back, as if regretful-
ly, without leaving me. Now, what
good do caresses do a lizard? Dogs and
cats, they tell us, are delighted with
them. But these animals, when they
were young, were caressed by their
mothers. who licked, bit and amused
them, and it is not strange that they
should find in our cajolery kind of rec
election of motherly tenderness. They
play together, embrace one another
and press against one another. The
man who plays with them is like COM
panion of little more respectable
species, and that is all.
''In menageries, monkeys, bears,
lions, tigers and hyenas indulge in ca
resses to the point that some animals
seek them and provoke them. But liz
ards, with their scaly skin, unaccus-
toned toembracing, feeling and licking,
hatched in the sun! My Pedro, there
fore, presented deviation of the feel
ing of jealousy"
