prosperity is at an end, for no gold
standard country can compete with
silver, because they could not sell their
goods on a gold basis, because the DIFF
erence in cost Of production, would be
just the same as the difference be-
tween the price of silver and the price
Of gold. Does not every intelligent
writer know that gold has always to
place itself right by the side Of silver,
seeking investment and that the coin
age Of more silver has never driven
gold from any country9 Where is
the gold to-day9 Do you see any in
cireulation7 Can it be made any
scarcer among the people who produce
the wealth Of the country than it now
is9 No, sir. Gold always hides when
silver is scarce. Was not silver at a
premium of 8 per cent. over gold when
it was slaughtered in 1872
The report that old Cleveland was
favor of restoring silver during his
campaign had the effect of raising the
price Of farm products as soon as cleo
ton was assured. May as well talk
about the moon turning to a diamond
as to talk about more money put in
circulation making times harder.

OUR PUBLIC

The State takes active part in no
work of more Importance to the vel.
fare Of the State than educating the
children Of to day who will be the
men and women of to morrow. Thor
oughness in teaching is one Of the most
desirable ends to be sought, but how
can this be done unless those in charge
of the great work are themselves thor
OughlY prepared for the work3 Poll
tics in the management of the public
schools often places incompetent men
over the schools as superintendent,
through him certificates are given,
and persons are sent out as teachers
who are not only lacking in education,
but are unfit for teachers. Too often
men are chosen as district committee
men. not on account of their fitness for
the place, but to reward them with an
honor for some political pull, and they
in return employ a teacher without
regard to qualification but to reward
some friend, and the children for
whose benefit the money is taxed go
to a fountain that is dry, to a teacher
that does not teach, to a diecipIinarian
who has not been disciplined. Failing
to have the above requisites in the
public schools, the devil makes use of
the idleness of the pupils mind to his
own advantage and to the detrim ent
of the pupils. When the scholastic
year is passed the superintendent and
teachers have gobbled up the money,
and the children are no better for hav

are exceptions, and the rule does not

A GOOD SUGGESTION.

Let our school districts (old) be made
the corporate unit, if need be, instead
Of the township.
These school districts, white and
coIored, are not co terminous; that is
they are not necessarily identical in
territory. The white and cOlored
schools are already distinct by law.
Give US a law providing that school
districts may vote tax or mo tax"
each for itself.
If white district No. 1 votes ''tax"
(no negroes voting), let such tax go
only to white schools, Have the same
provision for both white and colored.
This appears to me to be no class
legislation, and I believe the white
people will then vote to tax them
selves, and our schools may become re
spectacle and popular.

Mormon marriages take place in

course, no records are made, of poly,

A recent Columbus, O., dispatch

A recent Columbus, O., dispatch
says:
The anti trust law passed last winter
is to be tested in a peculiar way. The
law is supposed to make labor unions
unlawful, and this phase of the q1es-
ton is to be tested. This afternoon
Attorney Greene, representing what is
known as the Independent Carpenters
Union, filed an affidavit with the
police court clerk for the arrest of Mr..
Frank Westerman, charging him with
membership of the union. The aft
davit charges him with belonging to a
trust whose purpose it ia to obstruct
the free competition of labor. This
affects the entire unionism OF the State,
ana if the law is upheld all unions will
be unlawful and membership in them
a crime.

The sale of railroad tickets by un
authorized brokers at less than the
regular rates is known as ''scalping."
The railroad companies have been try
ing for years to get a law enacted to
forbid this practice, and a bill for that
purpose has passed the II Juse Of Repre-
sentetives. 1t imposes penalties on
''scalpers," and on the other hand it
requires railroad and steamboat com
panies to redeem unused tickets. A
state law similar to this has recently
been declared unconstitutional by the
New York Court of Appeals on the
ground that the selling Of unused or
partly used tickets is as legitimate as
the selling of any other commodity.
The court therefore ordered the re
lease of a broker who had been sent to
prison for violating the law.-Ex.
