TRIUMPH OF SILVER.

TRIUMPH OF SILVER.
Silver has triumphed in the SEN
ate of the United States, and no.
tice has been served on the gold
clique that contracts made by this
government in good faith will be
honestly carried out
All attempts to rob the people
of more than $500, 900, 900 by max
Jig the bonds payable in gold in
stead OF coin will be frustrated,
for the senate has voled that
"coin" means exactly what the
word means and not something
else. BY vote of ~ to 81 the
senate has passed the Teller Ma
thews resolution, has rebuked the
gold clique, bent on reputation,
and has interposed its stem op-
position to the proposed looting Of
the treasury.
AS a matter of record the vote
is significant and stands as fol-
lows:
For bimetalliam-
Democrats 20
Silver Republicans ~
Populists 6
Total. ...... At
Against bimetalism
Republicans. II
Gold democrat -. ~
Total. $500. ..............3 80
All amendments intended to
cover up the issue were promptly
voted down, and the Teller Ma
thews resolution was passed with
out single alteration.
In order that the meaning of this
vote may be clearly understood,
the text of the resolution is given
here. 1t reads as follows:
That all the bonds of the United
States issued or authorized to be
issued under the SAID acts Of con
gress herelnbefore recited are pay
able, principal and interest, at the
option OF government Of the United
States, in silver dollars OF the
coinage OF the United States con
tanning 412H grains each Of stan
dard silver; and that to restore to
its coinage such silver coins as a
legal tender in payment of said
bonds, principal and interest,is not
in violation Of the public faith nor
in derogation OF the rights OF the
public creditor.
Thus the senate Of the United
States has reafhrmed the sacred
ness Of the contract made by the
government, and has refused to
repudiate its obligations at the
commands Of the gold clique. 1t
is significant that party lines were
broken and that democrats, re-

port the move made at St. Louis
last month and antagonize the
present national committee of the
populist party in the nation? Such
a course did not appear to US to
be right and we did not take it.
Again, our contributor critlcises
The UNION for terming the dele
gates who attended that convention
"bolters. What constitutes |, a
"bolter" if not a man who with
draws from the regular party or
ganization? If that is not the
meaning of the term, then The
UNION editor confesses his ignor-
ance, and he has played in that
role once himself. Those dele
gates who made up the St. Louis
convention volenetarily withdrew
from the regular peoples party,
held that convention and chose a
REORGANIZATION committee to
act, if it act at all, independently
and in antagonism to the properly
constituted national committee of
the party. This is fact, whether
we like it or not, and we cannot
get away from it.
The remainder of the commune
cation does not deal with THE
UNION except in an indirect man
ner and will be passed without
comm ent. We realize that there
is room for vast improvement in
this paper, but we have made it all
that ''prosperity" administration
would permit, but no more, and
we have the assurance that its
course, editorially, has met with
the appreciation of four out of
every five populist readers on its
list. 1t is a populist newspaper in
every sense of the word and will
remain of that political hue so
long as it is under its present man
agement and it.expects to remain
loyal to the. regularly constituted
head of it's partly If that body
shall decide that fusion is inimical
to the best interests of the party
and the people, THE UNION will be
found at the head of the column,
and not gathering and fainting by
the wayside.' If that body shall
arrange for cooperation unde,
whatever name it sees fit, THE
UNION will support it to the end.
The present national committee is
composed of honest and patriotic
men-bobuAsks--and they will be
supported by the rank and file oil
the party.
The UNION might avoid crit
cism by paying no attention, edit
ORALLY, to those political moves
which are not in accord with it:
ideas, bat that is not our policy
That belongs solely to the republi
can press and we will not infringe
on it.
These comments are offered II
the klndiiest spirit, but with the
hope that our position is made
perfectly clear to every reader.

AS TO THE UNION.

Under Its open court l HE
UNION presents a lenghthy COM
munication touching on the sub
iject of fusion. This department
is for the free use of the
readers of this paper, and the
present management of The
UNION is in no wise responsible
for the views expressed therein.
Neither will THE UNION pose as a
critic in handling these contribu-
lions under ordinary circumstan-
ces, but inasmuch as the commu-
nication presented this week refers
directly to and criticises the course
of THE UNION, few words of re-
ply seems to US to be proper, Just
and right.
THE UNION does not for one
m oment question the sincerity and
e )od intentions of its contributor.
ION the contrary, it comedies them.
In the course of the Communica-
ton in question our contributor
expresses his sorrow in finding
THE UNION gathering and faint
ing by the wayside," and then ac-
cuses the paper of advising popu-
lists to abandon their party organi-
cation. This accusation he makes
when referring to our editorial on
the "middle of the road" CONVEX
ton held in St. Louis last month.
The Union denies that it has ever
at any time, directly or indirectly,
offered such advice. In referring
to the editorial which brought out
this accusation we find the follow
ing words:
The UNION desires TO say that
from national standpoint it is
pretty early to select fixed course
Of action for 1900. During the in
tervening period many things may
occur in the political world which
would render fusion highly desir-
able, or decidedly distastetul.
And the editorial in question
closed with these words:
Let all bobullsts stand true TO The
party folo,s until orders are receiv.
ed from those clothed with power
to command. Then let us exc.
cute those orders and set the foot
popular condemnation on the neck
OF The plutocratic opposition.
4 ust where The UNIONS advice
for populis;s to abandon their par.
ty comes in, "iuferentially OF
otherwise, the reader is left to de
termine. Instead of offering any
such advice, THE UNION urged all
, populists to stand true to their Par
~ eolorS. Furthermore, TIL
UNION urged all populists to wal
for orders from the properly con
: stituted party authorities. 1t mat
tiers not if EVERY STATE in the
Union was represented at last

Sane Advice to Young Artists.

"Don't give in" was about the gist
Of what Sir Wyke Bayliss said to the
English art students in lecture at the
South Kensington museum. He told
them what ought to be their watchword :;
"Do not believe, he said. in the in
sidious lie that the devil is always
whispering to the soul Of the artist
that the golden age Of art is past and
that what was done yesterday cannot he
done today, for art is in its decadcnce.
Such an assertion was the danger of the
time, and he would have them track it
to its source and kill it there. 1t had
two forms-despondency and tempta-
tion-but he urged them not to be in
fuenced by either. Let their study be
based upon knowledge. the knowledge
that had accumulated during the ages
and was formulated in what was known
ns academic training, and let their
knowledge in turn bo based upon their
own study"
Certainly that is the best Of advice,
for what has been done before can be
done again.

Edison's Marriage.

The idea of the great electrician Edi-
son marrying was first suggested by an
intimate friend, who told him that his
large house and numerous servants
ought to have mistress. Although a
very shy man, lie seemed pleased with
the proposition and timidiy inquired
whom he should marry. The friend
somewhat testify replied, ANY one. !"
But Edison was not without sentiment
when tho time came. One day, as he
stood behind the chair Of Miss Still
well. n telegraph operator in his EN-
ploy, he was not little surprised when
she suddenly turned round and snid,
"Mr. Edison, can always tell when
yuu are behind me or near me- 1t was
now Miss Stillwell's turn to be sur
prised, for Edison fronted the young
lady, and, locking her full, said, 1--we
been thinking considerably about you
Of late, and if you are willing to marry
me l would like to marry you" The
young lady said she would consider the
matter and talk it over with her mother.
The result was that they were married
a month later, and the union proved a
very harpy one.-San Francisco Argo

Smolenski had placed battery Of
mountain guns on plateau overlooking
the village of Velestino, and along the
base of this plateau was n battalion Of
Evzones, sheltered by the position of
the ground and by inuenchments. The
battery on the plateau played on the
Turkish advance with great effect, and
the order was given by the Turkish
commander to charge it. The Turkish
infantry swung clear, and the cavalry,
led by a young officer, came on in col.
umn, first at the trot and then at a
swinging gallop. 1t seemed a mad un-
dertaking for cavalry to charge bat
tery of well served artillery planted on
the crest of long, steep slope.
The brave horsemen We're met with
salvos of shells which plowed through
their ranks. Then suddenly uprose the
Evzones from their partially hidden
cover and poured upon them volley after
volley. No troops could Withstand such
fire, and, completely broken, the Turk

MODERN CHICKEN COOPS.
The Once Familiar Iaths Have Given Way
to Wire Netting.

to Wire Netting.
Men whose memories go back, say,
~ years will remember that in those
days when man wanted to build a
chicken coop he bought bundle or two
of laths and built it. There nre mighty
few lath chicken coops built nowadays.
Even the smallest chicken raiser, who
keeps few in his back yard, makes his
coop or runway of poultry netting The
chicken house, or shelter, is made of
boards, often of two thiclsncsses and
with tarred paper between, for better
protection from the weather, and with
openings at the bottom and under the
projecting roof for ventilation.
Laths We're cheap; poultry netting is
still cheaper. It is made of steel wire,
galvanized, In various widths and in
various sizes of mesh. The netting most
commonly used is six feet wide, with a
two inch mesh. The chicken raiser sets
up frame and tacks the netting to it.
Marrow nettings of smaller mesh are
used in various ways to keep in little
chicks--sometimes foot wide small
mesh netting to run around at the base
of the inclosure, the regular netting
being set above IL, thus increasing the
total height Of the netting. Sometimes
the small mesh netting is run around
inside Of the regular netting, thus max
ing the lower part of the netting double.
Sometimes 1t is used to make separate
small Enclosures within the large run
way and perhaps to make number Of
small Enclosures to keep separate brocds
Of chicks apart. The narrow, small
mesh netting is made up to three and a
half feet in width.
There is nowadays use for wire net
ting in chicken houses. A netting with
a square mesh is laid on the floor of
chicken houses to keep out rats and
mice.
There are now many large establish
ments in this country for the raising of
chickens for commercial purposes, for
market and for breeding, and there are
as many men as ever who raise chickens
at home, from the many who keep n
few in the back yard, with simple
chicken house and coop, to men who
raise many chickens and maintain an
elaborate plant for their breeding and
keeping. But under whatever conditions
they are raised, chickens are rarely seen
nowadays in coops made of laths, such
as were familiar 40 years ago. New
