to the workers.:

Wages have again begun to increase
in gold since last year. and million of
idle wage-workers have got employ
ment. and the future looks bright for
labor if not spoiled by the free silver
dcmagogucs running for congress, and
the Bryanitc, "Coin" Harvey leaders
working their mouths to throw the
country into another panic.
Thus the official statistics show that
from the time of resumption in 1S7S-'79
on the gold standard there was no de-
cline in wages. but, on the other hand,
q steady rise of about three per cent a
year in all trades and occupations,
which makes an increase in wages of
1925 from 1878 to the panic of 1898 on
wage or salary commanding $500 n
year for men and women per capita on
broad average, and in the same pro-
portion or ratio for the other higher or
lower rates of compensation.
And during all these 20 consecutive
years the gold wages of more than H.
100000 of wage-workers have pur-
chased per dollar more of the neccssa-
ries and comforts Of life for working
men and their families by reason of
new labor-saving inventions, making
labor more efficient and productive,
and consequently commodities have
been growing cheaper in the market,
while the gold wages of the workers
have increased.
The simple fact is the working
classes of this country have been buy
ing the necessaries and comforts of life
cheaper for themselves and their fam
lilies all these years and getting at the
same time higher pay in gold.
The gold standard has been no 'cross
of gold pressing a crown of thorns
down on the heads of the toilers," but it
has been their salvation.-Chicago

PLATFORMS OF 1903.
shcw the Democrats sim IIopeIcssIy
Welded 10 Cheap
Money.

\ review of the democratic state plat
forms this year shows that party hope
lessy and indssolubly welded to free
silver.
Eleven states only have failed to de-
clare either for free coinage or the Chi
cago platform. They are New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Maryland, Rhode Island,
West Virginia, Louisiana, South Da-
iiota and Wyoming
This leaves the sound money democ-
Iacy in II hopeless minority, and indi-
Gates that it Will have little or no inilu-
ence in the next national convention
But Notwithstanding the preponder
aGcc of silver sentiment In that party It
is in nowise discouraging to the cause of
honest money, for the reason that the
democracy of the II states named, see
ing the futility of I'm attempt to nomi-
late or elect % sound money democrat
20 the presidency, will cooperate in all
probability with the party that makes
the gold standard the principal plank in
its platform. This will insure the de-
feat Of the Bryan democracy and will
more securely establish the gold stand
ard Policy.
The Bryanites can get along very well
without these II states in the conven-
ton, but they cannot elect their nom
inee without the electoral votes of the
democratic and doubtful states in the
list.
The fact that majority of demo-
cratic state platforms declare for silver
does not indicate that the free silver
cause has grown in strength, but sim
ply that IA majority of the democrats in
n majority of states still adhere to it.
AS a matter of fact there has been an
appreciable decline in silver sentiment
among democrats. but not sufficient to
put the silverites of the party in the
minority.
The democratic state platforms this
year, therefore, do not indicate that
public sentiment is less strong for hon
est money than il was in 1896, but sim
ply that Organism is in the party sad
s',e. and like the fool on horseback will
ride to the devil in 1o00.-Chicago

SILVER is THE ISSUE.
Democratic State Conventions Have
Merely Evaded, Not Re-
pudinted IL.

A simple and conclusive test enables
facts in the face to determine for him
self what the real and predominant
issue of the campaign just closed is. We
refer to the democratic state platforms
Cf this year. How many of them are
faithful to the national platform of
'0G, and how many have rejected that
platform or ignored it?
1t is certainly significant that not a
single instance of actual, direct repudi-
ution of free silver and Organism can be
found. Not one convention has eX-
pressly recanted the heresies and folies
of the national platform. Ten conven-
tions have passed the silver question
over in silence, and for the sake of ac-
curacy and record we may enumerate
them. The state conventions silent on
silver were: Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland, Louisiana, Nebraska, North
Dakota and South Dakota.
Sixteen democratic state conventions
have expressly and unequivocally in
,lorsed the Chicago platform, and Is
conventions have reatlrmed belief in
free coinage at sixteen to one without
referring to the Chicago platform. The
question is whether the ten convcn-
tions which, out of mere temporary
cXpediency, ignored silver this year
shall be allowed to outweigh the posi-
tive and unmistakable declarations OF
the Overwhelming majority. We do
not see how il can be answered in the
affirmative.
Evasion is not Reputation, especially
when it is well understood that the
evasion is not due to change Of con-
viction, but merely to q recognition of
the fact that local success might be
endangered by fidelity to the party's
general doctrines. The great consider
alton 10 emphasize is that democratic
victory in the congressional elections
would so encourage the free silver dem
ocrats as to insure the triumphant re-
vival of their cause and the complete
suppression of the timid and doubtful
clements in their ranks. The politi-
cians whose opportunist sagacity is re-
sponsible for the discretion of the ten
silent conventions would find them
selves swamped and utterly without
power and influence. The radicals and
fanatics would be on top again, and
the hysterical politics of'the Bryan con.
vcntion would be once more in the as.
cendant.
The only way to prevent free silver
from again being a presidential cam-
paign issue is to prove that the tidal
wave of 1896 has not yet spent itself.
that the people are as vigilant and de-
termined as ever to withhold conf
dence from the party of reaction and
demoraliZation.-- Chicago Post.

A SURGEONS DISCOVERY.
He Found That Irisbmen Had CAL
Ioused spots on Their
Shoulders.

A young physician, some years ago
appointed as inferno at one OF the hos
pitfalls in this city, at one time made
discovery that nearly made him IA
nous. While in attendance at this hos
pital scaffolding erected for conven-
fence of workmen at building in
course of erection in this city broke
down, injuring seven lrishmen.
The young disciple of Esculapius was
in the receiving room when the patrol
wagons brought in the men. In ex-
aiming one of the men for injuries he
discovered Il calloused spot on the right
shoulder. He thought nothing of this,
until looking over the second man, on
whom he discovered the same spot. He
then went over the entire batch of in
iured men, and found the same mark on
each shoulder. Concealing his discov-
cry from his superiors, the young man
went about all day with visions of fame
floating through his brain. In every
conceivable way he managed to obtain
a glance during the day at each mans
shoulder, to be sure the calloused marks
were sui tHtIt. III ioNhNu
himself securely in his bed chamber
and prepared paper in which, at great
length, he dilated upon the discovery he
had made. He wrote pages upon the pc
culiar structural formation of the Irish
mems bodies, and stated that, although
in descending generations possibly the
spot would be nearly oblterated, so as
TO become almost unnoticeable, yet he
had no doubt that if each and every
freshman in the world was examined,
traces of the calloused spot could
be found on the shoulder. In the
morning, bursting with his newly ac-
quired information, he took one of the
physicians of the institution into his
confidence. The physician listened to
the young man with an air of interest
and then asked: ION what shoulder
does this calloused spot occur?"
1.-The right one! The right" ex.
claimed the young man, "and am sure
it can be found on all Irishman's shout
dersl"

DcathbIo,y to PopuIism.

Inasmuch as free coinage at sixteen
to one stands for that phase Of pop
ulism which advocates fiat money, ii is
fair to say that every defeat of a sill
verite was also n population of pop
ulism. Chasing free silver as II branch
of populsu, it may be said that pop
ulism lost six congressman in Kansas,
one in Nebraska, two in South Da-
kota, three in California, two i'm Mich
ignn, and four United States senators
White, of California; Allen, of Ne.
braska; Mitchell, of Wisconsin, and
Turpie, of Indiana. A significant fea-
ture of the demise of populism is tho
vote of the agricultural districts in
Nebraska and Kansas. Counties which
gave Bryan 500 to 100 majority two
years ago broke even and in several
instances landed in the republican col
umn. Populism cannot stand good
crops. Under a sound money policy,
with good crops and advanced prices
FOR products the farmers of the west
are satisfied. Prosperity has given
populism black eye. The democratic
platform makers will doubtless study
the returns in Nebraska and Kansas
to their own profit. The democracy
of 1900 must throw off the incubus of
populism. Chicago Times Herald.

A Dead Issue.
Tribune.

Judge l. N. Maxwell, who was one of
the Bryan electors for the state of
Washington, has returned to the re-
publican party and expects his state to
do the same thing. In explaining his
action he says: "The silver issue is
dead-dead as mackerel-and the
political speakers can't draw bakers
dozen to their meetings in the wheat
country. Two years ago advocated
free silver 1t was a time of great finan-
cial depression, everyone was out of
work, and felt that there must be
some reason for it. Like many others,
/ hit on the silver idea as a remedy. l
see now that the monetary system had
nothing to do with those conditions.
1t was overproduction. Since then
short foreign crops have given us a
market and the Dingley tariff has in
creased activity in all manufacturing
centers. The country is prosperous
and the people are contented. Iagreed
with the populists two years ago solely
ON the one issue of silver. Now that Ii
is n dead issue and swept out of the
way ! have no more use for the party
