Kinley and his friends told us four
years ago Mr. Bryan would force up
on the country, if elected to the
presidency.
And William Mckinley, the latter
day champion of sound money"
who thought it better to open the
mills to honest labor than to open
the minis to dishonest dollars, made
no protest against the 16 to l ratio.
No speech nor message nor utterance
of his of any kind can be pointed to
show that he desired congress to
change the ratio, or that he warned
the country against the effects of
thus ''debasing the currency, Gun

Hanna sat in the senate, and around
him, the old guard of'ssound money,
Tom Platt, Aldrich Allison and the

day knows no law but the will of its
master in the White House, Gros
vehor was on guard. Did these
watch dogs of ''honest money raise
their voices against this ''prostitu-
ton of our national currency" Not
one word of protest did they place
on record. The bill providing for
the free coinage of Is to l silver dol

a Republican senate, and on June -
1898, and was signated by William
Mckinley.

Has any workingman been beaten
out of one half of his daily wage by
being paid in these "fifty-cent dol

found his pension cut in twain? Has
any Swedish American, or German

HOGS SOLD STEADY
Market Generally the Same
as Saturday.
TOP PRICE WAS S4.75
Mas Paid for Fancy Load of
HeavieS.

Hogs sold steady and strong yesterday,
while sales in some cases could be quoted
q shade higher than Saturdays prices.
The market opened steady and there was
but very little huctuation during the day.
The market all through compared steady
and strong to Saturday. The close was
firm
The receipts yesterday were average
for a Monday. The total receipts Of the
day were 1,702 hogs. The estimated re-
ceipts for tomorrow are placed at 200.
There was a large run Of wagon hogs in.
The roads were IN good condition, consid-
ering the weather the past few weeks,
and the farmers unloaded their hogs on
the high market The car receipts were
mostly IN at an early hour, although a
few late cars delayed the close of the
market somewhat later than usual
The top price Of the day was $40, the
top market Of the year thus far. The
price was paid for fine load of extra
fancy heavy hogs. They were the best
load Of hogs which has been marketed
here in some time and the price paid,
while considerably out Of line with the
general market, It a fair indication Of the
superior quality of the hogs.
The quality OF the receipts yesterday
was mixed. There were some good hogs
IN and also some very common ones.
The general run was only fair There
We're al unusually large number of light
and medium hogs in. The quality of
these was fair, but nothing choice was
offered
The market compared well with other
markets. Kansas City quoted the mar
ket as steady. while St. Louis and Chi
cago thought the market was strong and
possibly a shade higher. as was the case
here. It might be noticed that the Wich-
fla market has shown itself to be one Of
The best markets in the west in the light
