not the ones that have cut the price OF
wheat. The cuts in the price of wheat
have rather cut them. Thus, in 1881,
we find Australasia exporting 3.3i4,s4o

Kingdom: in 1898, 3,5ss,l62 last year. 4

1,072.55O hundred weight Of wheat to
the United Kingdom i. 1881. and only
$500 in 1895.
As to Russia. she is doing her best to
cut her own throat by dropping silver
and tying herself down to the gold
standard. The only saving clause is
that in getting down to the gold stand
ard she declares a tender of two COLO
roubles to be full satisfaction for a

In consequence Of the great nuubcr

variety and within easy reach;
but localities possessing . warm
climate as winter resorts are
few in number. and those that
do exist involve long journey to reach

ties for travel aud extended knowledge,
the requirements of civilization for win
ter resorts will be met BY the discovery
of localities adapted for the purpose.
Thus within the last few years We have
seen the popularity Of Florida as
winter resort steadily growing, large
hotels erected. and many places within
her borders created into winter sani-
tsriums.
In all these places. as well as IN the
towns and cities of the southern states
bordering on the gulf. the winter eli
mate is generally too cold and variable
to meet all the requirements of those

nnthusiastic Crowds Can still Listen
to silver Speeches.
Let me tell you the way "the oliver
craze" is dying" in this part Of the
country.
At Cloverdale, recently, there was an
immense crowd, nearly 10000 people,
assembled to hear money talk. Hon.
W. V. Rocker, silver republican, ex-
Gov. Matthews, and Hon. II. C. Bell, ex.
deputy commissioner Of pensions, were
advertised TO speak. Mr.. Bell led Of.
in a speech Of an hour and half. Mr..
Rocker followed, speaking another hour
and half. Gov. Matthews could not
come. But, us the vast assemblage was
hungry for more free silver talk, Mr..
Bell was called on to make a second
speech to the same audience. He made
It, and It was lively one. For on hour
he poured hot shot into the ranks Of the
goldbugs, and heated the blood Of the
silver men to the boiling point. They
were very enthusiastic over his Arst
speech. but "went wild" over the sec.
ond. 1t was something new---two free
silver speeches the same day, from the
snme fellnw. to the same crowd. And
