to stand solidIy together for liberty and
humanity and strike down forever this
conspiracy of gold and monopoly"
The Populist address says: 1.-THE con-
spiracy OF gold and monopoly is nearing
its elimination. Neither the bene-
ficiaries nor the tools of this conspiracy
have any particular politics. In name
the last administration was Democratic.
The present administration is called
Republican,, but IL has ingloriously prac-
ticed and defended the perfidious poll
cies OF its predecessor. This country
has, during the past "a years. suffered
enough OF the blighting effect OF the
gold standard so far as fraudulent legis-
lation and executive usurpation have
been able TO establish IL. Ii Is now
boldly proposed TO legalize what has
been done In defiance OF law, and to use
the power secured by false pretenses
from long suffering and too trustful
people to put upon this infamous design
the stamp of alleged popular authorize
ton"
The address asserts that the gold syn
dicate and it's allied monopolies have
used their tremendous power TO discrim-
mate against sections apd individuals,
TO dry competition. to breed business
stagnation and to create hard times"
In the midst of plenty Thus the organ
ization and maintenance OF great In
dustrial trusts have been promoted
which operate to aggravate the evil con-
ditions which gave them birth. Thus
they are making millions of paupers TO
f.sx.,
able result must be to convert our gov
ernment into an oligarchy OF sordid
wealth.
The address OF the silver Republicans
says THE cunning plans of the bene-
flciaries of the gold standard and the
advocates of monopoly are fast nearing
completion. They need but to win one
more victory to become supreme. and
to be able to defy the sovereignty OF the
people for generations. The policy of
the Republican administration is plain
confession that the secret authors OF the
st. Louis platform of 1896 are in absolute
control OF that party. Power thus Sc
cured by false pretenses is to be ruth
lessly used to carry out the ulterioT de-
signs OF the conspirators.
Before this awful and imminent peril
to the institutions OF our country every
personal ambition must melt away and
every merely partisan contention must
be stilled. While this issue remains un-
settled Democrat, Populist and silver
Republican must stand shoulder TO
shoulder n q common cause. Until this
final assault Of the enemy upon the last
ramparts of our Industrial and social in
dependence is repelled, untfl the control
of the money system OF the country is
rescued from the hands OF special in
terests and assured TO the whole people.
the members of the great armies of po-
litical reform in every part of the United
States should act in mutual Justice and
harmonious cooperation for the gen.
eral welfare"

You can't Judge the value
OF a newspaper as an adj
vertising medium solely
by the number Of pages
it prints. The newspa-
per with the m Q st
pages is, more often
than not, the newspaper
with the smallest cir
culation.
Nowadays. people
like to have the News of
the Day served briskly
and crisply. They want
to find all the re,ws in
their newspaper, b ut
they don't want to wade
through a lot of bluff to
get at the real meat.
Nowadays the adysr-
tiser doesn't accept the
average circulation state
ment without doing a
little probing on his own
account. The returns
he gets from his adver-
tisements tell him all he
wants to know about cir
culation.

A Wrong Impression

An incorrect idea has been Great
ed by the reports of the recent
inquiry into the fire at the telephone
office as far as the insurance com
panies are concerned. The inquest
was not instituted by the agents Of

to pay the damages as soon as the
amount of the actual injury was
ascertained
Mr.. j. NJ. Dowsett who represents
the London and Lancashire Insur-
ance Co. and Mr.. II. Lose, the agent
Of the Insurance Company Of North
America made an agreement with
the directors of the Telephone Com
pany to have the damages appraised
and the experts selected, Messrs
Pratt and Hoffman assessed the
damages at S2250 an amount accept
able to the Telephone Company and
to the insurance men.
The inquest was simply held in
the interest of the public generally

dead in her apartments on Cnampa
street to-day. She lay on the floor, face
downward. twisted towel was tied
tightly around her neck, and there is
no doubt that she had been strangled

There is no clew to the murderer,
but the police believe that the deed

ter those murders Mrs. Voght informed
the police officials that spirits had
given her, While she was in trance,

know something, or he was also a be-
lever in Spirits, and decided to put
her out of the way and possibly save
himself from exposure.
