Will Mr.. Bryan. Be Honest ?
Mr.. Bryan said,in his speech in
the house of representatives on
February 9, 1898, against the re>
peal Of the Sherman silver pur.
chase, ''it meanssa reduction in
the j Ice Of our wheat and our
coy e. and in one .of his cam
~ 1 speeches list fall he says
you ask us how the gold
standard affects the farmer, We
will tell you that the gold stand
ard lowers tile price Of the farm
ers' product, and to-day the price
Of cotton, wheat and all the
products is much higher than they
were when those speeches were
made. If Mr.. Bryan be an hon
est man, he will admit to the peo>
pie when he comes into the state
on his campaign that he WAS miss
taken or did not know what he
was talking about when he said
one American dollar was worth
about two Mexican dollars. Will
he tell the people that he did not
tell the truth when he said silver
and wheat was yoked together.
See if he will tell what brought
about the change through the en-
tire campaign. Last fall Mr..
Bryan declared that the great
scarcity of money was what was
hurting this government, but now
the people fully realize the truth
fulness of the statement made by
the republicans when they said
there was plenty OF money to run
this government, and what was
needed most was that the people
should have confidence in the
ability of the men that run the
government and the money would
be turned loose.

BICYCLE CURVES,
no Feet Of the Rider Never Moves
Backward.

no Feet OF the Rider Never Moves
Backward.
Almost every bicycler believes that
. he rides his wheel his foot swings
ackward with the pedal. He thinks
is fee: describe series Of circles, fol-
ewing the pedals around and that they
owe backward and forward Just as
auch as they move up and down, says
ne New York Journal. This. 1t has
now been found by careful measure
:nent, is quite mistake. From the
time you mount your wheel until you
lismount your feet never move back
ward. They are constantly moving
forward, not in circles, but in series
ot curves. The reason for this 10 that
rs your foot swings under the crank
shaft the bicycle moves forward much
more rapidly than the pedal swings
back. The result is a constant for
ward movement. While your foot
moves backward in relation to your
body. yet it moves more rapidly for
ward in relation to the ground. 1t
has been found by testing bicycle
with ordinary gear that the wheels
make two and one-quarter revolutions
% one revolution of the pedals. Start
ing your machine when the pedals lie
IN horizontal line 1t will be found
that the wheels have made q complete
evolution before the pedals again come

Miners Strike.

For weeks, almost months, the
industrial pulse of this nation has
been beating while a great miner
and other labor strikes has played
its career in the drama. 1t was not
strike like the one few years ago
which was for work at any price the
Kelly and Coxy's common wealers
were asking for-work for bread
and butter. The present strike is
for an increase in wages, for higher
prices. While we do not tolerate,
rather condemn, strikes as being un-
American, yet in few instances
there might be some practical re-
suits. BIT as for the colored min
.ers and laborers joining those
strikes, we would say "No" Il thous-
and times ono" First, because it
was under those strikes that most of
the colored miners were employed,
especially in Iowa. Second, be-
cause the labor organizations at first
would not allow us to join their Or
ganization, but now since colored
miners haye become a factor they
would like to have them Join.
Third, we are simply on trial in the
various mines, and if we remain |
rue, greater res ults in the indus
rial world will be accomplished in
he future. Fourth, if we should |
strike now we would lose the foot
lold we now have.
Those two influential colored |
abor leaders in Virginia have the
light idea when interviewed recently. |
They advise their colored laborers
10 remain neutral. .n4.: 81 -...
We are glad that the colored
miners did not strike. They are
true American citizens, and can rea-
son and harmonic things for them.
