Sound Money Paymasters' Way.

With aD Ohio man in the Presiden-
tial chair and an Ohio man directing
the campaign which put him there, on
a platform which cried out for sound
money-with the accent on the sound
surely more than every otherwhere
on earth Ohio should be the abiding
place and the distributing point oi
''sound" money. If the result of the
last election was a verdict in favor oil
''sound" money, surely that verdict
should be carried out first of all in the
State which presented Mckinley to the
nation and furnished Hanna to groom
him and train him for his race to great
ness.
But Ohio has fallen most woefully
down in putting the ''5ound" money
preaching of the illustrious political
twins, Mark Hanna and Saint Bill Nc
Kinley. into practice. There may be
abundance of the yellow coin for the
bankers, the trusts and the corpora
tions of the Buckeye State, but for a
large contingency of the poor wage
earners-to secure for whom an honest
dollar Hanna, Mckinley & Co. nearly
worked themselves into early graves
last year-there was not either gold or
silver, or even paper dollar, paid out
for several months. The pay given
these excepted toilers for their severe
labor was in scrip. issued by their Re.
publican employers, the legal tender
quality of which is no more than that
of hospital rags, and the purchasing
power of which is restricted to the
company stores of the men who issued
the debased and swindling paper.
Correspondent Chambers OF the New
York Journal. who recently visited
some of the mining regions of Mark
Hanna's State, gives graphic picture
of how the miners are being paid By
these Republican bawlers of ssound''
money for sound work with unsound
scrip. Writing from Gloucester. o.,
he says:
.sSeven mines are in the Immediate

q Little Inconsistent.

There are people who still wonder
where the silver cause gets the money

of literature and the support of speak
ers; yet those who realize that the sill
yer mines of the country would be in,
creased hundreds of millions of dollars
in value if they could get favorable &C.

are not surprised at the willingness oi
the silver trust to still disburse a few
millions in the hope of capturing the
cy in the next national campaign. y
Factory editorial, slug %.
The above is one of the editorials
sent out from Washington to the cuckoo
organs to appear this week. Such an
idea (P), coming from local talent,
would not surprise US, but coming from
''experts" on the pay roll of the gold
trust. we have reason to expect some
thing not quite so fabby.
The foundation of the gold theory is
that you cannot legislate value into
nor out of a thing. and yet this hire
ling OF the gold trust tells us that "the
mines of the country would be increas-
ed hundreds of millions of dollars in
Ualue if they could get favorable action
on silver by the American people"
Is this not remarkable admission? ?
Does it not knock hols in every ar
gument (P) that the gold trust has ever
attempted? Is it not an admission
that favorable action on silver by the
American public" will restore silver to
the old place it occupied in the days
of our father?
Say, cuckoos, send this little item
over to the factory" and tell them to
fix up reply.-ScoH County Ne,osboy.

as long as we wished my friend bade
US good-b bye for the afternoon, saying
he wanted to find friend down town.

as much of the other sights as posi-

windows to the floor on all sides. AS
we stood and looked a man came with
a basket of food for the dogs. l look
ed 10 see what he had to feed them
on. saw it was the refuse of the ta-
bles at the restaurants, parts of chick
en-, meat of all sorts. all kinds of
bread, and it was funny to see the dogs,
eat. There were dogs of all the
known species of small dogs. There
were DO large dogs. l Isaw some OF the
smallest little poodles, such as some
women q won't say ladies, for any
woman who, will go Juggling a dog

of the littlest bits of things not much
bigger than some rats have seen and
it was funny to see the keeper catch
the little things by the nape of the
neck and make them balance them
selves.
Next we went through the the pig.
con or dove house. We saw hundreds
and hundreds of doves of every posi-

of all colors, smooth and ruffled, fan
tails, pouters, carrier pigeons; hooded
pigeons = with feathers that covered
their heads so as to hide their eyes.
Pigeons with a shell excrescence from
