HUGO DENKENSPRUCT
Relates One Of His Experiences as Jus.
tice OF the Peace.
(By William Il. Anderson.)

"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 1t is n
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 case Of the Devil
kvoting scripture 1t goes long way
ahead OF that and just fits the case
am about to tell you.
During my term as justice of the
peace in this town we had a great deal
Of trouble with tramps. They used to
get into the school houses to sleep and
at last they got so bold school house
wasn't good enough for them. They be-
gan to profane the churches. Big 10,
names, neighbor Smiths son, was con-
stable and he at last arrested gang in
the Methodist church down there. He
had not much experience, you see; and n
schmart lawyer from the village was up
before me to defend them. That man
really was fine pleader; and as he knew
the Bible kvotations well, he made 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 sermon which he got

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

In Mr.. Bryan's speech Of acceptance,
No. /, he said that IL 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"
IL elected President of the United
States Mr.. Bryan will become command
cr-in-chief of the army. This being the
case, " #
VIII 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.

The one supreme test Of prosperity is
the money in the bank. This is self
evident truth. II mans family is well
clothed and 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:

OF the United States. and that small effort
will put US on perfectly safe basis.
