in favor of fastening the gold standard

in favor of fastening the gold standard
upon the country. No great political
party has ever declared in favor OF
Fastening the gold standard upon the
country On the contrary, all party
platforms have declared that the well
fare of the people would be conserved
by the restoration of bimetallism, and
each has given assurances that, If
trusted with control of the government,
its financial policy would have con-
stantly in view the restoration of BIZ
metallic coinage and legal tender laws.
ms Dill has for it's object the per-
pelual establishment of the gold stand
ara. It's authors boldly declare that
tiis is its object. 1t discards not only
the proposal to store the coinage and
legal tender laws in force prior TO 1873
oy the independent action OF this coun-
Try but also the proposal to reach the
same result by international agree
lnent' The passage of this bill would
destroy absolutely the utility of silver
as money of ultimate redemption, and
attempts to bar the door against re-
turning to its use as money of ulti-
mate redemption.
we protest against the passage OF
ms Dill. and will offer the following
as substitute:
Strike out all after the enacting
clause of the bill and insert:
ne unit OF account or value in the
onited states shall be Il dollar OF 412ia
grams standard silver or 25.S grains
STANDARD gold: that1he- holders of sill
yer bullion not too base for the oper-
ATOMS OF the mint shall have the right
10 deposit the same at any mint of
the United States for coinage into
standard silver dollars on the same
terms and conditions as gold bullion
is now coined for private holders; and
SILVER dollars heretofore coined and
hereafter to he coined under the pro-
visions hereof shall be legal tender for
All ueDts and dues. public and private.

which they are interested. | believe
that young Gray will also go out with
the Dunayens. Lots of people are
leaving for the states today. two
steamers being crowded full, and
many others would like to go but they
have no money to pay their way.
FirstclaSS passage from Dawson to
Seattle is $3.50: there is big differ
ence in the price charged going down
river or coming up.
Wages are low 10 cents per hour
and work is hard to get. Chas Zeniel

ployment since last fall. JOSEPH

Telephone Talk,
Merrill News.

MCfTlll News.
There has been more or less tele-
phone talk or talks about telephone
companies for some time past and a
little more will not be amiSS just at
this time. The telephone business is
good, that is with the local company
and not SO good with the old company.
This condition of affairs is largely due
to the fact that the old company
raised their rates, the new rates TAX
ing effect July l, and are s. a month
for business places, and Sl.25 a month
for residence, that is for single lines.
Those using a party line, that is line
upon which two or three phones are
located, are given reduction in the
above rate. The introduction of these
rates has been the cause of the old
company receiving numerous requests
for the removal of their phones and
many who are taking out the old
phones are ordering phones put in by
the local company. The home com
pany now has over go phones in
operation and if present indications
count for anything, it will not be long
before the number will come to be
very near the 800 mark and as we
heard business man say recently.
why should it be otherwise. it is a
local enterprise, they give the best of
service and deserve the success with
which they are meeting

material to the present inquiry is as

material to the present inquiry is as
follows:
Whenever a proposed constitutional
amendment, or other question. is to be
submitted to the electors of the state
for q popular rOte. the secretary OF
state, unless 0the1aCise directed by the
lar pr0riding for such submission, shall.
not less than IL days before the election
at which such question is to be sub
mitted, certify the same to each county
clerk, and such clerk shall include the
same in the publication prorided for IN
Section 36." Section 36, as we have
seen, provides for the publication of
certain information in tJrO or more
newspapers, but for one publication only
in d1ly one weekly newspaper, and that
publication should be within the aceek
Immediately preceding the election. Chap
ter 303 should have been published in
that manner and in no other. No
different or other publication of it
was authorized by any statute. The
secretary of state was in error in
treating it as a part Of the notice
required by Section 20 to be given by
him to county clerks. The county
clerk of Wood county in like manner

notice to be by him published pursu-
ant to Section y. Such action Of the
clerk in so far as it exceeded his law
full authority, is not binding upon the
county. The clerk had authority. by
virtue of said Sections 3G and IS, to
give Chapter 303 zone publication"
only, in the plaintiffs newspaper 1t
was in fact so published twelve times,
continuing through and including the
week in which it should have been
once published. For that one publi-
cation plaintiff is entitled to be paid
by the county at the rate therefor
fixed by law. The county board hav-
ing refused to allow anything for such
publication, its action in that behalf
will be reversed, and judgment will
go for the plaintiff for the amount
due him for the one publication afore-
said, and for his costs, to be taxed.
Judgment ordered accordingly.

on the Chapel claim. but was obliged
to give up On account of sickness. He
was again in good health at time of
writing his letter and had a job in
view getting out cordwood for one of
the steamboat lines. This will give
him steady employment all summer
and all next winter
~
Letters were also received Tuesday
morning by Mesdames Dunaven from
their husbands. The gentlemen an
nounced that they were headed home
ward, coming by way ST. Michaels
and San Francisco. In the party are
Dunaven brothers. Orrin Gray, Jr..
and Fred kyeS of Merrill. They eX-
pect to reach Grand Rapids on or
about August 10. All above letters
were carried from Dawson to Seattle
by Albert Gray and mailed by him at
the latter place. The Dunavens also
said that Tom Law and son would
save s75 each steamer fare by making
the rOwboat trip to st. Michaels, but
of course their home journey will
require considerably longer time.

Want DR., Robinson to Leave Chicago.
A:kaloidal Clinic, Chicago, July, '99.

Another city has shown its discern
ment by calling DR.. Byron Robinson
to the chair of GynecolOgy and Alb
dominal surgery in its medical college.
But DR.. Robinson is too wise to leave
the greatest city on earth. Meanwhile
his great work on 1.-The Peritoneum'
and his later works, THE Abdominal
Brain and Automatic Nisceral
Ganglia," and ''Colp0perineOrrhaphy
or The Vagina and Perineum and How
to Mend Them continue to receive
the appreciation of all thinking men
The above refers to DR.. RObinsOn's
offer $4,000 year if he would accept
chair. of diseases of women, in &
western university. In order to dc
this he would be required to leave
| Chicago.
This was opposed by his better half
DIR. Lucy Waite. After considering
the proposition for a short time hi
declined to accept the offer.

Rent a Postomce Box.

People receiving any considerable
mail should rent a box at the postoffice
Especially people who get newspapers.
Newspapers get worn in the delivery,
no matter how carefully handled, as
they are of necessity handled many
times a day. The receipts from OON
rent 90 to the government and not to
the postmaster, SO he is not interested
only as he desires the prompt and care
full delivery of all mail matter. Boxes
are rented at so cents for call boxes,
