Mr.. Little 10 reported to have said
that he had not taken the trouble to
deny the statement, for the people

Answers from His Republican Friends.

And He Stands In an Expectant Attitude for
Answers from His Republican Friends.
Will some Of my good Republican
friends answer the following questions
and oblige one who may be in the fog?
LIST, What is the object of the bond
system, il not to furnish basis for the
national banking system and foster a
never-ceasing debt on future genera
tons for the benefit of holders OF
these bonds?
I'd, If the credit of the nation is
sufficient security for bonds drawing
interest. why is it not equally good for
non-interest bearing notes?
Sd, Is there one-fourth enough gold
in the United States to redeem the
outstanding bonds? If not, what
makes the bonds so good that they
command premium?
4th, If the government was "shaky"
wouldn't the bonds be "shaky"?
9th, If the free-coinagc of silver was
good for the people prior to '73, why
isn't it good now?
9th, If scarcity OF money makes
hard times, which all admit, do you
think the destruction of half our cir
culating medium is going to make
times better?
7th, If it hadn't been for the $780,
100000 in gold that has been taken
out of the ground in the last two or
three years, and the Philippine and
Transvaal wars, don't you think the
administration would have had to is.
sue 5000, 100000 more bonds? Don't
all speak at once.
9Th, Don't you think the Philippine
a:rocity very large elephant on our
hands?
9th, If it took 100000 English SOL
diers nearly year to whip 10000
Beers, how long will it take $1,000
United States soldiers to whip 10000
600 Filipinos? This is a simple ques-
ton in proportion. Solve it, and you
may be able to Approximate the
amount of bonds it will take to settle
the bill. At the present rate of prof.
legacy the bondholders will have a
mortgage on every man, woman and
child in the United States for genera
tions to come. Of course that is what
they want, but aren't we id fools to
stand it? Say. be honest. Don't you
think SO?
10th, If Liberty is a good thing for
the American people, why is it not a
good thing for the Filipino?
1lth, If some power stronger than
you would buy you at 50 per head
wouldn't you kick against the pur-

UNCLE PAUL KRUGER HoPEFUL.-
President Kruger, notwithstanding
the capture Of Pretoria, by the Brit
ish, on the Sd inst, sat in railway
car smoking his pipe and issuing his
orders with the same calm dcmeanor
that has characterized his admini.tra-
ton SO lar. While he looked worried,
there was determination expressed in
every action and mistaken firmness
was manifested i'll his steady tone OF
voice. a correspondent suggested that
as the capital, Pretoria. had been
taken, it was very generally thought
that the war was over and that the
British had scored lasting victory.
" The capital" exclaimed the old gen.
tleman with energy, "What is a capt.
tai? 1t does not consist of any partic-
ular collection of brick and mortar.
The capital of the republic is the seat
OF government, and it is for the pres
ent here, in this car. Our govern
ment is invaded. but it is not con-
quered, and it will not he as long as
500 armed men respond to call. l
feel deeply encouraged by the fine
work Steyn and DeWet are doing in
the Free State. 1t is only now that
the real struggle has begun. l fear
there will still be much bloodshed, but
the fault will be with the British gov
ernment."

SEVEN officers and seventy-scven
men of the U. S. Army have COM
mitted suicide in the Philippines,
since it has been stationed there. The
persistency with which that numeral
appears in this result recalls the seven
angels with the seven plaques, re-
corded in Revelation, and the horrors
which followed the pouring of the
seven walls of wrath of God upon the
Earth.

HALF q dozen strikers were shot
down Sunday, in St. Louis, by the
Sheriffs posse. As some mitigation
of the harshness of this lawful method
of dealing with labor, the dispatch
states that the shooting was done by
some of the most prominent citizens
OF st. Louis. This assurance will
doubtless go very far towards soothing
the anguish of the victims starving
families.

If the New York Democrats are
harmonious this fall, the State will
surely be carried by them, and with
Hill on his way to Kansas City in
structed for Bryan it seems that the
first steps have been taken to secure
that result. At least a marked
change is evident the attitude of that
gentleman and his following since
1896, when a very slight change in the
popular vote would have elected Mr..
Bryan.

SHE WEAKENED.-Emphasizing her
eloquence by stamp OF the foot that
made the whole house tremble, an
Olympia lady said the census-taker,
one day this week, "I defy you to ask
me how old am; no man shall know

officer assured her that she was simply
committing grave crime against the
general government, and then calmly
read from section of the law some.

all smiles instanter, treating the little
episode as a rich joke and gave him a
plausible, if not truthful, answer.

There is a pretty general feeling

standard-bearer.

and a few million Cinnamon within

On the property Of the State, The tax
roll should show = valuation Of enc
hundred naiIlioa dollars worth Of prop
erty; that a true assessment adjusted
nearer to the equal value Of property
would reduce the average county taxes
to perhaps one dollar on the hundred,
viii, the States proportion at about
twenty-five cents On the hundred; that
this differentiation Of property -esa!ts
in abnormally high tax rates and is
crippling our industries in addition -
being a menace to the investment of
outside capital. we therefore recon-
mend to all Silver Party county Con-
vcntions that they pledge their nom;
ncrs to the Legislature. to support
such measures as will bring about re-
form, in this direction.

ing Of the State Central Committee Of
the Silver Party held at Carson City
during the Senatorial contest in Jan
uary 1899, resolutions were passed by
said committee condemnatory of the
GOOD faith and party loyalty Of the
Hon Francis c. Newlands. and
Whereas: At such meeting. Hon.
w. f. Sharon was deposed from the
Craftsmanship o; The Stare Central
Committee. largely by means Of prox-
les obtained by and under the control
OF Senator William N. Stewart. with
out proper notice as to the purpose 1t
the meeting, and.
Whereas: 1t has since been demon
strated that the charges then made
against the Hon. Francis G. Newlands
were absolutely false. and that the real
traitor to the Silver cause was Senator
William NJ. Stewart, as has been DEM
! onstrated by his recent action: there
! fore we resolve that the resolution con-
+; derratory of Hon rancis G. New
lands be stricken and expunged from
the records OF the State Central Com
inittec OF the Silver Party. and that he
is entitled to the commentator OF this
