Hon. Jas. Hay addressed a small au-
dience at the Court House last Monday.
As this is the week proceeding the
County Fair, very few people besides
those who had business to transact were
in town.
Mr.. Hay, in his speech, among other
things said; For the last ii years the
Democratic party has been in control OF
the State. 1t comes before the people
and challenges criticism as to the course
which 1t has pursued.
The Republican party moves me with
some sympathy. They are split wide
open. The cause is that some have got
the offices and some have not. Those
who have the offices say that they don't
want State ticket. Those who didn't
get the offices want a state ticket
The Republican party in this state
have but one landing place, but it does
not become us to sleep on our arms.
Mr.. Hay proceeded to give an account
OF his stewardship during the short time
he was in Congress. He said that he
wanted to vote for the free coinage OF
silver but that he did not have the OPP
pOrtunily. He wanted to vote for low
tariff but the Republicans were in the
majority and passed bin even worse
than the Mckinley bill which was re-
pudiated by the people. He discussed
freely the enormlties Of the Dingley
tariff bill, which he denounced as
purely protective measure and not one
for revenue.
He said he believed that we could have
no prosperity until we have the free
coinage of silver. We want a prosperity
like that OF Europe when the n.ines OF
Mexico and Peru poured their gold into
Europe and prosperity lasted an hun
,lrsd years. We want that kind of pros
perity and we will never have it until
we have the free coinage OF silver.

It's amusing to hear the Free
Silverites apologize for the ad-
vance in the price Of wheat and
OTHER commodities They taught US
that wheat could not advance in
nrIce until we should have the free
and unlimited coinage Of silver at
l6 to |. But facts, with their usual
stubbornness, disprove their theory.
They now tell us that this is an ex
ceptional year aud the price OF
wheat is dependent upon the sup
p'y and the demand. In other
words they should say that their
tn cory was wrong last year and we
were right. We are willing to
admit that this is an exceptional
year. but we contend tnat every
year the price of wheat i9 dependent
upon the supply and the demand.
In fact it is dependent upon the
foreign demand. We always raise
more than enough to supply home
consumption. 1t may be true that
we raise too much wheat. We may
have devoted too much attention to
one ce eral that brings good prices
ONLY occasionally. We neglected
other branches of agricultural in
dustry that pay better, year after
year. The farmer who fed his
grain into stock makes more money
than the farmer who depended
upon the sale of his grain crops.
A considerable revenue is derived
from the cultivation of apples and
other fruits Some men have made
more money on lanI valued at
$500 per acre than Others make on
land valued at from $50, to 500
per acre. They have planted fruit
trees upon their cheap land and
have realized large profits from
their investment. The men who
undertake to make iron, or the pro
duets of iron, as their fathers did,
will lose money. The farmer, who
without regard tochanged conditions
and changed surroundings. under
takes to farm as his father did will
lose money, The times have chan
ged and we must change with them.
We are never going to become Tlch
by fretting over the immense for
tunes that others have made. Nature
has given us the opportunity and
we must use energy and intelli
gence ia making use OF these OPP
portunitics. If people expect to get
rich by changing the currency and
making dollars by stamping forty
cents worth OF raw metal one dol
lar, they will be deceived. POliti
clans seeking lucrative offices may
get well paid for advancing such
theories but the mass Of the people
will never be enriched by them.
Our people will make money by
raising and manufacturing such
things as will command remunera-
tive prices, whether it be cattle,
or wheat, or bOot-Jacks.
The idea Of regulating the prices
Of these articles by changing the
value of our coins is an invention OF
spectators and politicians. 1t will
never help the mass Of the ,
people, and the probability is that
none of US will live to see these
delusive theories carried into prac
tice. They will melt into thln air
and the Ieople will continue to
struggle on, some making a living @
and others accommodating riches. Q
The old way of making money byl
converting labor into capital still
prevails and will continue to prevail /
IN spite of the utopian dreams Of c
those who expect to grow pros
porous by increasing tie coinage Of !.
a depreciating currency. q

The practice of allowing boys to
hang around pool rooms and bet on the
races is a matter that has been COM
mented on frequently for a long time
by people opposed To seeing boys per-
mitted to frequent saloons, az all the
pool rooms happen To be ioealed in sa-
looms, but no previous step had been
taken to put stop TO 1t. In numer-
Gus instances boys have become invet-
crate gamblers. and do nothing but
hang about the pools rooms and bet
every dollar they can manage to get
hold of on the races. One or two cases
are known in which women who are
unable to visit the pools rooms because
of appearances. have the juvenile
touts place their money for them. 1t
is said that henceforth boys will not
be permitted to visit the pool rooms,
and that the proprietors or managers
of any pool room that permits boys to
play will be arrested and prosecuted.

S0lutinG . Cat,

There is at least one place in the
world where the cat was until recently
held in high honor and received the at
tention due to one Of so high station
in life. That place is India, where in q
fortress the sentries Invariably used to
present arms to every cat that appeared
ON the scene.
The custom is accounted for by this
singular anecdote, which comes from
what appears to be good authority:
Some 90 years ago it happened that q
very high English official died in an
Indian fortress, at place that is one of
the centers of Brahmanic religion, and
at the moment when the news of his
death met the sepoy guard at the main
gate black cat rushed out of it.
The superstitious guard presented
arms to the cat as salute to the dying
spirit.of the powerful Englishman, and
the coincidence took firm hold upon
the locality. that up to few years ago
neither exhortation nor orders could
prevent Hindoo sentry at that gate
from presenting arms to any cat that
passed out at Eight.-Harper's Round
Table.
