Must OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Prosper
ity viii Return.

Washington, Oct. 20. For the first
time since the beginning Of the present
campaign in Ohio Secretary Sherman has
published his views, in the shape Of the
following letter, addressed to the editor
of the Cincinnati Volksblatt:
Il look upon the pending canvass in
Ohio US a retrial of the issues Of the cleo
ton Of 1896. State issues, II any, do not
seem to be the subject of debate. Natur.
ally, the first issue now il whether the
administration Of William Mckinley thus
far is approved by the people Of Ohio.
Upon this question there ought not to be
any difference Of opinion. His prompt
calling together of the congress Of the
United States to provide the requisite rev.
enue for the support Of the government
and his recommendation Of the prompt re-
peal of the feeble and indefensible tariff
law known ~ the Wilson German law,
has met with general approval. The re.
vival of all industries and the commence
ment of prosperity in all portions Of the
United States was the natural and neccs-
sary result Of the action of the president
and republican congress.
ut is said that free coinage would
bring up the price of silver bullion TO the
ratio of 10 to !. There is not the slight.
est ground for this opinion. Silver has
gone down in price precisely as iron, tin
copper, or indeed, the price Of all metals
except gold. The development in the
process of mincralogy has kept pace with
the cheapcning Of nearly all the produc
tons of skill known Ms manufactures
Even gold may decline ms the result o
recent development Of mines in sevelA
parts Of the earth, but from its superior
value in the smallest space and being les
affected by corrosion than any Othe
money metal, il in now and will continu
to be the standard Of value in the chic
nations of the world. Silver will b
largely used in all countries for mino
coins. and II limited in amount and re
deemed at it's coinage value or mnde
legal tender for limited sums, IL will b
largely absorbed for minor transaction,
but its free coinage for all who deman
it would ut once make it the sole coin i
circulation. prevent the coinage Of gOl
and place our great and powerful com
try in financial operations among III
minor and poorer nations Of the worl.
This is the issue that will largely contr'

WHY SUNDAY Is CHOSEN.

Most Royal demonstrations Have DC
Cured on the Sabbath.
Sunday seems to lpe a favOrite day for
political assassinations Of Europe. The
death of CanOvas on this day recalls
the long list Of rulers who have either
met death or but narrowly escaped 1t
on the sabbath at the hands OF an
archists, communists or n;hillsts. The
fact that in the cd world Sunday Is the
great festival day. when the rulers go
around and give their subjects an OPP
portunity to look upon and get near
them, Is perhaps sufficient exp.ana-
ton.

Took Him for Worse.

A wedding at which the bride may
inadvertently have told the truth took
place here recently. The bride and
groom were both natives of sunny
Italy, or sunny somewhere else. The
minister to officiate had but short
notice, and consequently no re
hearsals' of the important and i'm
pressive performance could be in
dulged in. He did find time to inform
the contracting parties, however, that
when he asked them questions they
must answer, and on this information
the funny incident hinged, for where
the .blushing and dusky bride was in
terrogated, ''Do you take this man for
better or for worse?" she blandly an
swered "Worse.
The mistake was too much for the
groom, who gufawed in loud tone,
the merriment spreading through the
family of the bride and among the few
auditors present until every one joined
| in. The bride, blushing but mo
ment before, did not see anything

to burst into tears. These were FINAL.

"a tramp stopped at my residence

to investigate. Going to the shed,
