HUGO "DENKENsPRUCT
Relates One of His Experiences as Jus.
tice of the Peace.
(By William E. Anderson.)

~ H.-..#
"Yes, you are right, Jonathan, Mr..
Bryan will do good to his own party
talking about political equality, liberty
and the rights of man, for it was always
hard for his friends to make such things
work in this country among the Ameri-
can-born colored citizens. But it is a
little late to do any good in those States
where Mr.. Bryan will get nearly all the
votes cast. No, you are wrong, iona
than. The very many kvotations he
makes from: Washington, Lincoln and
Others isn't quite a case Of the, Devil
kvoting scripture 1t goes a long way
ahead Of that and just fits the case I
am about to tell you.
peace in this town we had a great deal
get into the school houses to sleep and
at last they got so bold, a school house
wasn't good enough for them. They be-
gan to profane the churches. Big Jo-
names, neighbor Smiths son, was con-
stable and he at last arrested a gang in
the Methodist church down there. He
had not much experience, you see; and a
schmart lawyer from the village was up
before MT to defend them. That man
really was a fine pleader; and as he knew
the Bible kvotations well, he made a good
impression on the court. He said that
his friends, the defendants, went from
the school houses to the church to get
religion; and that the Lord was where
two or three were gathered together in
His name and SO on. Then he pulled
out the notes of a sermon which he got

pei to every people, Wasn't that a CO.
incidence to iremind me Of Bryan's pious
remarks on the same text?
The lawyer got along so well that /
about made up my mind to kvit the pris-
oners. But the schmart young lawyer
didn't know it so he began to go for big
Johannes and cross-kvestion him. Jo-
names was the only witness, you see,
and didn't have much experience. By
and by Johannes could not stand
so much fun at his expense, so
he got mad and yelled out: THAT
may all be, Mr.. Lawyer, what you
say. You seem to know that the
notes Of the sermon you got from that
big hobo were his own notes; but I know
what you don't know, and that is that
the gang you say he was preaching to
tore out of the pulpit Bible all the book
Of Genesis and Exodus, including the ten
commandments, to light their pipes with
while they listened to the Sermon Then

ARE SOLDIERS TO BE
PAID IN SILVER?
A Pertinent Inquiry from an Old
Soldier Still Unanswered.

-.. .#- .r..
In Mr.. Bryan's speech of acceptance,
No. l, he said that if he was elected to
the Office of President of the United
States next November that as soon as he
was inaugurated he would Immediately
call an extra session of Congress and
give freedom to the inhabitants Of the
Philippine Islands and recall the army of
the United States, which would include
the bringing home Of the "Stars and
Stripes"
If elected President Of the United
States Mr.. Bryan will become command
er-in-chief of the army. This being the
case,
Will Mr.. Bryan pay the soldiers Of the
United States Of America in silver?
1t is very important that the soldiers
of the American army understand this
matter clearly and distinctly as to what
Mr.. Bryan's intentions are in the mateer.

PEOPLES BANK DEPOSITS
SHOW IMMENSE increase. !
Prosperity Has Come to the !
People. ;

The one supreme test of prosperity is
the money in the bank. This is a self
evident truth. If a mans family is we'll
clothed md fed and in a comfortable
home, and besides this he can put money
in the bank, it must be admitted that he
is prosperous.
In the following unparalleled showing
of the increase in the number Of deposits
from the dark days of the Democratic
Wilson bill regime in 1894 to the glorious
days of Mckinley prosperity, the most
marvellous of all is the increase in the
number Of depositors and in the amount
of deposits in the savings banks of the
country. These banks are particularly
the ones where the wage earners Of the
country put their savings.
Mr.. Bryan says the people are not pros
porous. So say all his calamity follow
ers. We commend to them the following
official figures from the report Of the
Comptroller of the Currency of the Unit
ed States for 1890. They are unanswer-
able:

CENSUS QUESTIONS

The blank schedules to be used in
the next census are now being dis
tributed by the census Office to the
enumerators, who will start to work
on june The schedules contain
questions which some persons may
think prying, p~urposeless, or excessive
in number. But their number and
character have been determined by
congress, not by the census Office, and
all of them have been asked in pre-
vious censuses. The only important
change since 1890 is that some ques-
tions have been abandoned.
People are often offended at the
question, How old are your" and are
apt to wonder what use the govern
ment can make of their replies. Taken
as a whole the replies are as import
ant as any information the census
office collects. Age returns penetrate
and elucidate every other branch of
statistical knowledge. They show
where child labor is prevalent, and
where the proportion of persons able
to support themselves is large or
small. They reveal the great num-
Der of colored children and the short
life OF the negroes under present con-
ditiens. They make it possible to as
certain whether the average length OF
life is increasing or decreasing, how
many me the nation contains who
are capable of voting or of bearing
arms, and whether the relative NUM-
Der Of children is increasing or de-
creasing.
In Mohammedan Or semi-civilfzed
countries like India householders are
often unwilling to answer the question
regarding the sex of persons in the
