Religion Losing Ground.

The country is becoming egitated
over religion. Periodically some
one rises and declares that it is de-
caying. This results in countless
discussions until the agitation runs
its course, and still religion flour
ishes. 1t always will, for it is some
thing the world needs, One of the
finest recommendations of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, the great
American stomach strengtheuer,
lies in the fact that 1t has lived for
fifty years in spite of hundreds of
limitations, and is renowned for its
cure of constipation, dyspepsia, bill
iousness, fever and ague, malaria,
and sees to it that the life-giying
elements of the food are assimila-
ted with the blood, There is moth

climate so dry and health-giving
that it has become known the world over

Asheville, the centre of this beautiful
mountain-hemmed plateau, is the highest
city east of Denver, and is busy, thriving
place of II 900 inhabitants, with all the
modernisms of city life. The city lies Just
at the point where the beautiful French
Broad and SwammOca rivers join their

Within the city or in its suburbs many
people of wealth have built beautiful and
expensive homes, most notable among
them being the chateau of flr. George W.
Vanderbilt, which with its great estate has
cost upwards OF four million dollars.
Asheville is an all-the=year resort, for

WHAT 1T MEANS.

An editorial in London Commerce,
A recognized trade authority, cham
pion of monometaIism for England
and claiming the largest circulation
in the word, has caused consider
able talk among business men.
From it the following extract is
taken:
Leaving the question of tariffs
for a moment, let US consider what
A bimetalist America will mean for
us. The radical silverites are
again marshaling their forces in the
United StPtes and are confidently
expecting to elect their president
next year The manner in which
the gold standard press of the Uni
ted States is discussing the subject
would indicate that there is great
hope for free silver coinage. In the
first place it will mean an immediate
premium upon United States ex-
ports. The effect of mining silver at
the proposed ratio would in all
probability bring about a great
Doom in manufactures of all kinds.
Wages might rise considerably but
the experience of other countries
goes to show that they would not
rise in proportion to the advantage
which exporters would derive who
send their goods to a gold using
country, to-wit, the United King
dom. The manufacturers of the
states would not be quite in the
same position of vantage as tht
agriculturists of the Argentine, mol
the exporters in India, but they
would have a sufficient leverage
over the manufacturers here tt
turn the scale in every trade where
now there is a doubt which way tn,
market trends. In tin plates, man,
kinds of machinery, including some
of the very heaviest, in leather, anC
in many sundry manufacturer
where the British producer can witt
difficulty hold his own, the effect o
the change would be decisive: Thel
this policy is also decisive Their
this policy is also meat-liye cattit
beiug prohibited-wheat and al
farm produce suitable for e&pOrta
tion would come over in greatly
augmented quantities, for the diff
ference in the exchange woulC
mean such an addition of profit thai
an immense stimulus would bt
given all along the line, AS to sill
yer mining, all that can be said il
that there would be a rush The
dimensions Of the movement woul(
depend upon many things impos
sible to foresee. These anticipa
tions of what has become possible
are not, be it remembered, baset
on mere theory. We know already
too we'll what to expect from for
eign traders IN a country where
silver IS the standard currency
India, Japan and Argentina are al
bearing witness to the insidious eff
feet on British trade of conditions
similar to those now in perspective
in the United States. Meantime we
cannot too soon face the possibiIi
ties and realize the true significance
of the position as it is.
