President Mckinley Submits His Currency
Ideas to His ahiEct


President Mckinley Submits Ills Currency
Ideas to Ills Cabinet.
Currency reform will be strOnglcy
urged by President Mckinley in his
forthcoming message &c congress-
That portion of his message relating
to the subject was read to the mem
bcrs Of the cabinet "Wednesday, and
tEc views Of tile president were
highly satisfactory to Secretary Gage,
whose own scheme was read to the
cabinct just three weeks ago, Hut
the president has not gone as far as
the secretary Of the treasury went.
The great advantage That thc
friends Of currency reform see in the
attitude Of the president is that he
ID not deferred from bringing it to
! the attention Of congress anG urging
action. Notwithstanding the general
| impression Which las obtained thai
nothing could be accomplished At

never was any good reason TO" be-

adverse sentiment in congress could
influence hiln to Withhold his views
and Recommendation on this subject.
Even before lc spoke on the Tariff

Mr.. Mckinley said to tile assembled

From the Tribune, Greeley Colorado

As q Tribune representative was s,rolllng
about town the other day, looking up items
Of news. he dropped into Fezer's drug store.
This, that and other medicines were talked
of and their curative qualities analysed:
90 far as lay in their power. The cura.
tive powers of DR.. Williams Pink Pills were
talked Of, when Mr.. Falkner. q clerk in the
store, mentioned that Mrs. Joseph Moore was
. firm believer in their efficacy. Pursuing
his quest, the Tribune man paid Mrs Moore
Q visit the next day.
Greeley, Colorado. Squire Moore and his
amiab!e wife are the best known and the
most respected. The Squire is carrying his
seventy.six years as sturdily as many men
who have not yet rounded then slxtleth mile
post. and his wife, Ann, IS q fitting compan-
Ion, one of those pleasant faced. agreeable
ladies, who make you feel perfectly at home
when in their company This happy couple
were born in the same nelgh.orhood. OF the
West Riding. OF York, England, in 1920: the
husband o few weeks his wlte's senior and
for over fifty years they have travelled the
pathway of life together. In 1SlS they emf.
grated to this country aad settled in Derby.
Conn.,, where they resided for q number OF
years. While there Mr.. Moore, who was
highly respected by his n~eighbors, was elect
ed q member Of the State Legislature in 1867.
During his residence in the United States
he has been q constant reader of The New
York Tribune, and was On ardent admirer
Of its founder and great editor, Horace
Greeley, and . firm believer in that notable
writer's opinions. Through those mediums
he was influenced to come to Greeley in the
early spring of 1871, and here he has resided
ever since. During his residence in this
beautiful section of northern Colorado, he
has held many responsible public positions,
notably that of Justice of the Peace, an office
which he occupied uninterruptedly for eight
years; and four years ago was reelected to
another term, his name being placed in
nomination at the convention without his
knowledge.
The ~newsgathercr was received cordially
and in response to his inquiries, Mrs. Moore
stated that her health commenced failing
several years ago but like q great many wOm-
en-, she scarcely knew the meaning Of the
name sickness in relation 10 herself. She
| refused medical attendance. or treatment of
any kind, barring that which she drew upon
from the family pharmacopGia or dispensary.
Using Mrs. Moore's language: "For four
years I was miserable, hardly a week passed
during that time but what l suffered from
| extreme lassitude. The least e~xertion fa-
| tigued me. At times when I would be sew
ing or reading, l woul! be troubled with

Gund Brewing company's plant. The

bushels of barley, which was totally
destroyed. The Office building, which
stands across the street, was not
burned and part of the engine room

tanned about $4,000 barrels Of beer
