THE MONEY QUESTION.

departure they are taxing 1rOm'l I
The traditions and usages of the (
United States on the money
question. IF the republican h
party declares for gold as the
one standard measure of value
and redemption money. which it
is already committed to do, it
wi II be the first time in the his
tory of the country that a pc,
litical party declared against |
silver coinage. Every declara-
ton of political parties up to !
and including the platforms of
1896 on the money question was
positive for bimetalliSh The
republican party was not SIM
Cere in 1896 when it made the
usual pledge to hold ont silver
as money metal under some
sort of an international agree
ment But the declaration of
the party on that question was
adroitly enough presented to
convince d great many sincere
bimeta lists that the election of
Mr.. Mckinley would surely be
followed by Il wise and consist
ent monetary system which
would at least oblige the gov
eminent to coin enough silver
on its own account to keep the
volume of legal tender money
up to the requirements of the
Country's business.
But when the republican party
declares for the gold standard
without qualification, which il
certainly will be forced by the
money powers to do, the issue
will be greatly simplitied. L
will be bImetallism agaius
monometa llism without any in
tervening IFS or andS." Thi!
will give the money question
very much greater importanc,
in the campaign than it woulC
have were the republican part,
to reabopt its money plank o
1896, because that declaration
does not on it's face contem
plate the elimination of silve
as legal tender money, and IL
doubt it would deceive yer
many in 1900. as it did in 1896
But the leaders of the republ
can party have gone too far !
committing their party to til
gold standard and the elimin5
ton of silver as redemptio
money to retreat. Their col
veution will have to declare Ill
qualitiedly for the gold stal
dard and a national bank pape
currency.
1t was thought Il while az
that the,repuhlican cOuventio

Rudyard Kipling. when he was a
student in the United Service college.
In North Devon, says one who knew
him. was known as Gigs" because OF
the glasses he wore. About the mid
die of his school life he entered into
a strong tie of friendship with two
other boys. The trio are said to have
led kind OF bohemian existence, as
related in the "Stalky" stories. Kip
ling was the Beetle"
During these four or i've years It
could hardly be said that Kipling was
a prodigy. He was always extremely
near-sighted. which was perhaps the
reason for his not taking any very
keen interest in either field sports or
athletics. On the other hand. he was
not always to be seen poring over his
books. He was seldom at the top of
his class, although when he left the
college in 1882 he carried with him
the well-earned first prize in English
literature. He was chiefly noticeable
in his schoolfellows' eyes for q keen
wit and a flow of language that could
only be suppressed by depriving him
Of his spectacles.
For two years Kipling was editor Of
the College Chronicle. during which
period many bright verses and clever
articles from his pen appeared In that
little journal. The position led to his
nrst newspaper engagement under
novel and amusing circumstances. The
head master Of the college was chair
man Of the local board, and he was
being attacked by the local paper. The
local editor. probably seeing some Of
Kipling's work, entered into an ar
rangement with him to Soad the head
master into the indiscretion Of . reply.
The next issue contained . series Of
articles written in such poignant, sar-
castle terms that everybody began to
talk about the matter. The head mas
ter was compelled to take up his pen
in self defense. and eventually he re-
signed his chair.

The appropriations are liberal and to
many seemed excessive but if the money
is put to the use Intended by the electors
and the town gets value received for
its money there will be no fault finding
especially if the board see to it that
the appropriations voted cover the
entire expense of the town including
judgements if there are any.
1t would be great saving to the
town if the board would make arrange
ments for borrowing money until the
tax is collected and pay for everything
in cash thus putting stop to the buH-
ing Of orders and putting them into
judgement and piling upa great lot
of costs for the town to pay as has been
done in the past.
The result throughout the county
is in the main satisfactory to the tax
payers. w. Fl. Bissell was elected
chairman of Arbor Vitae and James
McGonigal of Minocqua. With them
and A. Mckenzie on the county board
we believe that we will enjoy an
economical administration Of county
affairs and that there will be no jobery.
D. E. Riordan was elected Municipal
Judge by about two hundred majority.
Mr. Butler carried Minocqua and his
vote of sixty four here was surprise
as he had no one working for him.
