One by one the theories of the free

beautiful tables with which they
proved to the farmers in 1894 and
1896 that wheat and silver kept apace.
Twenty months ago, when Mr.. Bryan
was nominated and the wheat and
silver theory was given new lease
of life, an ounce of silver was worth
considerably more than a bushel of
wheat, being in the New York mar
kets practically 90 cents per ounce,
while wheat was 65 cents per bushel.
But what a change! Today two
ounces of silver will scarcely buy one
bushel of wheat, the white metal hav-

1t seems that it is the "crime of

That eminent statisticiau and student
of finance, the Commissioner of Labor
of New York State, has just present
ed report in which he says that the
farmers of that State, while complain
ing bitterly at the reduction in the
prices of their lands, state that the
reduction has occurred within the
last five or six years, and amounts to
from so to IS per cent. The FIVE or
six years period reached back, it will
be observed, to precisely the date at
which the free-trade President and
Congress were elected and began
their work of the destruction of the
protective tariff system of the United
States, while if the reduction in the
prices of lands were to be charged to
the decentralization of silver, it would
be necessary to go much farther back
than the date at which these reduc.

1t is whispered in Washington that
Congressman Bailey, of Texas, thinks
he would make an extremely capable
presiding officer of the United States
Senate. He has taken occasion to
make a keynote" speech for the
Congressional campaign, going to the
city of Richmond for that purpose,
and in it endorses free silver and the
Democratic platform in 1893, and
Bryan for the Presidency in 1000. 1t
is intimated that the Texas statesman
feels that the ticket of Bryan and
Bailey would sweep the Mississippi
Valley and the entire South and West
in 1900; hence his willingness to for
get those scruples which he men
toned in his celebrated speech made
in Texas in the beginning of the cam
paign of 1896, in which he antag-
onized Bryan and the Democratic
platform.

The price of shoe leather does not
seem to have advanced by reason OF
the duty which the Dingley law
placed upon hides. 1t will be remem.
bered that the opponents of that
measure dolefully predicted great
advance in the price of shoes as a re-
suit of the tariff on hides, but they
seem to have been wrong, as they
usually are, when they attempt to
discuss the tariff. A table published
in Dun's Review, of February 20,
giving prices of boots and shoes at
various dates from 1895 down to pres
ent time shows prices in 1898 on
many lines of shoes and boots to be
from five to ten per cent below those
of one year earlier under the Wilson
law, which admitted hides free of
duty, and also shows that the Febru-
airy sales and shipments were the
heaviest ever known in that month.

Democrat leaders are evidently be-

disposition, in preparing for State

severely alone and branch of on gov.
eminent by injunction and other fads
OF this sort. So strong is this new
development that Editor Wharton
Barker, of the Philadelphia Ameri
can, announces his belief that the
Democratic party will espouse the
gold standard in 1900, and in this
opinion he is joined by Chairman
Marion Butler, of North Carolina,
proprietor of the Raleigh Caucasian,
which says: lin 1900 the gold bug
machine will have full control of the
Democratic party" 1t is presumed
that Mr. Bryan will, under those cir

disguise and appear in his real color

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY
TESTED.
Results of the Test in Varions Forms
of Dyspepsia.

Results of the Test in Varions Forms
of Dyspepsia.
Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia
while very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a serious thing, and that
no time should be lost in treating 1t
properly at the start, because recent
researches have shown that the most
serious, fatal and iucurahle diseases
have their origin ia simple dyspepsia
or indigestion.
Diabetes is simply one form OF
indigestion, the sugar and starchy
food not being asSimilated by the di-
gestive organs. In Brikht's disease
the albumen is not properly assimi-
lated.
While consumption and dyspepsia
are twin diseases, and it IS beyond
question that dyspepsia makes fer
tile soil for the seeds of consumption
But the trouble has been To fnd a
remedy that could be depended upon
to cure dyspepsia, as it is nOtOriously
obstinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which
has puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike, until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance OF
new dyspepsia cure in the medical
world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which it was claimed was as
a certain, reliable cure for every form
Of s0omach trouble.
Physicians however, would not ac-
cept such statements without first
giving the new remedy many tests
and carefully observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be a specific, a
radical lasting cure for indigestion 10
the various forms of acid dyspepsia
or sour stomach, gas or wind on stom
ach, too much bile, undue fullness or
pressure after eating and similar
symptoms resulting from disordered
digestion. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab

age.
No extravagant claims are made for
the remedy. 1t will not cure rheu-

nor anything but just what 1t is
claimed to cure and that is every form
of stomach trouble.

LONDON, April IA dispatch from

"The ambassadors Of Great Britain,

the Spanish-American dispute, on
condition that Spain grants an armis-

the part of the United States, that
they will have nothing TO do with the
insurgents during the duration of the
armistice, and will withdraw their
feet from Tortugas, together with
the squadron stationed 10 the neigh
borhood of the PHILIPPINE islands.
Upon the retirement of the ambas-
saders Senior Gullon at once commu-

proposition. In the end the ministers
decided to accept the terms and forth.

A Decree by the Queen
Regent of Spain,
ACCORDING TO MADRID ADvlCES
American Vessels Must Be With
drawn From Cuban Waters,

WASHINGTON, April II President
Mckinley received a cablegram from
Minister Woodford, at Madrid, an
nouncing that the Spanish govern.
ment had granted an armistice for
Cuba. In making this announcement,
Mr.. Woodford conveyed it as a piece
Of news in which this country was
vitality interested, but not as an o.
fetal communication from the Span
ish government u this government.
None the less it conveyed the essen
tial fact that Spain had conceded
what the powers and the pope had
been urging upon her for many days,
and that the concession dispelled for
the moment the darkness of the war
clouds and brought in their stead
what was regarded as at least hope of
a peaceful solution of the pending
difficulty.
The receipt of this news has not,
however, resulted in any change of
the administration's program.
Special dispatches from Madrid say
that Senior Gullion, the foreign min
lister, having received important tele-
grams from Washington, Immediately
went TO the residence of SenorSagasta
the premier, where protracted inter-
view was had. Senors Gallon and
Sagasta then went to the palace,
where a cabinet council was held, and
the prime minister impaired the
contents of the kilograms. He said
that the ambassadors of the powers
had asked Spain to grant en- armis-
tice with a view of allowing negotia-
tions for settlement of the whole
question. The council had a long
Il
and anxious discussion, during which
Senior Sagasta went out and con-
suited the queen regent, and it was
finally decided to grant an armistice,
which should last FIVE days, upon the
following conditions:
That the United States should i'm
mediately cease to lend moral and
material support to the Cuban insur-
gents; that the American squadron in
the vicinity of Cuba should be with
drawn, and that the American war
vessels near the Philippine islands
also should be withdrawn.
If the United States declines these
conditions, it is declared that the
powers will openly lead their support
to Spain.
The correspondent in Madrid of a
news agency here says that If the In
surgents shall not have laid down
arms by the end of FIVE days, the war
will be resumed AID Spain will re
