court few days ago In the
Hoguc case, reference to which
has several times been made In
| these dispatches, continues to at
| tract considerable attention.
In the COURTS opinion the half
of the public domain not dedi-
| Gated to the school fund having
| been exhausted, what remains
belongs cHuitnbiy TO that fund,
| ana the state hns no Innd left for
| the purpose of acquiring a home |
| stead donation.
The constitution provides that one-half OF
the public domain in existence at the time
1t went into effect shall be set aside for the
school fund. II appears. however that the
school fund has not received within 10000 900
acres of its half of the $1,000 600 acres of I'M
appropriated public domain on hand at the
time of the adoption OF the constitution OF
1876. and the question arises as to how said
fund shall be compensated in consequence.
Tho Hogue decision answers the question to
certain extent. because II, In effect, decides
that the 100000 acres Of pubic domain I'M
appropriated at the present time; tho 2,oO0.-

Chatter mortgages Increase.

The bureau Of industrial statistics Of
Nebraska has Just completed the com
pilation Of the mortgage record Of the

mortgages is as follows: Farm-fled,

GAGE AND BIMETALLIsM.
PIaces-InfernatiOna BimetnI-
ism No BimetaIIism at all.

The term bimetallism has clOaked
more political rascality and lies than
any term that was ever invented. The
bimetalIist is one who believes in the
free coinage Of silver by this govern
ment, whatever other nations may dc
or not do. The international bimet-
aIlist is no bimetalIist at all. He knows
that international bimetallism viii
never come until this country forces
it, and the only way that it can force ii
is to adopt it itself. Any party that IA
vors international bimetallism in its
platform simply attempts to catch votes
by pretense OF loyalty to a popular idea
which it desPises. Gage sets the fnan-
eial pace Of the administration, and
gold is his god. He came out Of a gold
plated bank vault, and whoever expects
him TO clean the hole out Of which he
was dug is absurdly foolish. There can
be no bimetallism while Gage is where
he is, not even if it were proposed TO
make the ratio one hundred to one. It
is not the ratio OF the metal which men
like Gage oppose. Their contention and
sole contention. whatever they may say
or do. is against an increase of our cir
culating medium, and IL is a mOnstrOus
crime against the masses. We believe
that the presidents symPathies are
with the bimetallists, but he viii do
nothing under the Influences that sur

FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
Progress in Civilization Has Always
Been Accompanied b an Increas-
EnE Supply OF Money

The more history Is examined the
more conspicuous it win appear that
progress in civilization, which includes
the Development Of the physical and in
teIlectual faculties Of man and the
control Of the elements Of nature, has
always been accompanied by an in
.creasing supply Of legal tender money.
Gold and silver having been used for
that purpose from time immemOrial,
the product Of the mines marks the rise
and decay Of nations. When the mines
are productive the energies OF man are
brought into activity, and progress and
prosperity are the inevitable results
When the mines are exhausted, contrac-
ton, falling prices and decay always
appear.
The controlling conditions Of pros
perity and human progress are in
vOlved in the stability Of general prices.
Long continued contraction and falling
prices are as fatal to liberty and pros
perity as slow and deadly poison is fatal
to animal life. Modern civilization was
made possible by the gold and silver
from Mexico and South America. The
civilization which we now enjoy is
threatened by the control which the
money type Of man has acquired over
the legislation Of the civilized world
It is now seen that the nOn-use Of one
CT the precious metals is as fatal in its
effects as the failure Of production of
the mines The chains OF feudal slav-
cry are already riveted upon the mill
lions Of India and Egypt by the desPOtic
power Of the plutOcrats Of England.
who inaugurated the gold standard.
The gold aristOcrats Of Europe have
divided and enslaved Africa. England
alone has enslaved more than SOC. OOO,-
600 in Asia and has a dominant infiu-
ence in China and Japan. Germany,
France and Russia are also wOrshiPers
Of gold, and so far from resisting the
progress Of slavery in Asia are clamOr-
ing for their distributive share of the
vast empire Of China. Wherever the
British lion has conquered other races,
a slavery more CALLING than existed in
ancient times has been established. The
heartIess cruelty of England seems to
have inspired Russia and Germany, and
republican France to reap the advan-
tage Of Asiatic slavery.
The proud position Of our great re-
| public has disappeared. A cringing de-
pendence upon foreign money lenders,
and a timidity in even pretending TO as
/ sert the power Of 20, 600, 600 of people to
make our own laws and maintain an in
/ dependent financial position on earth,
have made the name Of American citi-
zen a rePrOach throughout The nations
Of the earth and induced the thousands

ment and laws Of the United States.

Twenty years ago, after years Of investi-
CATION and study, DR.. i. Harold Hayes an
nounced that he had discovered and per
fected a treatment which would cure
Asthma so that the patient should stay
cured. Up to this time the best that could
be done by the most eminent physicians was
to give mere temporary relief, and they
frankly acknowledged their inability to do
more DR.. Hayes' treatment has been ad-
vancing steadily ever since and now more
than forty thousand sufferers have been
under care, giving to him and his associates
a vast experience and the highest attainable
skill IN dealing with this most distressing
disease DR.. Hayes system is such that
patients are treated at their own homes,
and through a perfected plan of giving ad-
vice and directions by mail and sending med
