The slip Of flame became station
airy SO suddenly that the veteran be-

The music, the flags, the comrades
and all were out of sight and hear

beheld sea of sympathetic faces
gazing kindly, curiously into his own.
He removed the red cap with it's bob
bling tassel and made the speech of
his life.
Ladies and gentlemen" said he,
"this is my long-lost sister, and we're
SO s'prised at finding each other.
But, after all, it was the toggery

like wildfire that something had hap

only served to augment the story.
Rub-a-dub--the crowd gave way
and the Shields post formed hollow

An Unsettled Question.

While the democratic reorganiZerS
are proclaming that the money ques'
tion is settled and the gold standard
established, the Fowler bill is before
congress to create an "aSsetcurrepcy'
with branch banks, and to establish
the gold standard.
asset currency" is paper money
based upon the individual RESPONSE
bility of the bank isuing it. Such
currency will not be legal tender for
the payment of debts, judgments or
taxes, and its currency from distant
bank in another state or in the same
state will probably be uncurrent, and
subject to discount in exchange for
the asset currency" issued by the
home bank thus enabling the banks
to profit, by swapping dollars with the
common people. The editor of the
PLAIN DEALER well remembers the
day of ''asset currency" when living
in New York, near the border between
New York and Pennsylvania, the
money of solvent banks Of either state
was at a discount of from two to ten
cents on the dollar in the other state
from the state of issue. Our corn,
oats, butter, beef OF pork sold at War
rem, Pa. and paid for in the currency
OF its bank, brought to n. Y. was sub
ject to this discount in exchange for
articles bought or in payment OF debts.
=, The purpose of this legislation is
mot to give the people sound and SOL
vent money, urto confer upon banks
and corporations the sole and eXclus-
i've right of making and issuing the
money. The question involved is
whether the banks or the government,
that Is the people, shall issue and con-
troll the money of commerce and of
business. If issued by the government
In form of treasury notes, made full
lawful tender for all purposes, every
dollar will be worth the face value in
every part of the country. With an.
annual government expenditure of
half billion dollars, the only redemp-
tion to maintain them at par will be
to receive Them al their face value
for all government dues. In 1879 when
the government commenced receiving
the treasury notes Tor custom dues
they Immediately went at par with
coin. And the 500, 100000 OF full legal
tender treasury notes issued in 1862
were always az par for all purposes.
But the ques ton is not only unse Tiled
among democrats but equally so |
among republicans. At the recent
Understanding republican balh-
er of Kansas was one " the speakers
against the asset currency" bill de-
claring that I'VE do not WANT III, as
set currency which viii get us into
panic when we are ont OF Ole. I" He
said 'No one would be benefited by
branch banking but the greedy giut-
tons OF plutocratic combinations,
which wish through this to get their
covetouS clutches on the cash or the
entire country" He declared that
"depositors of the west Will feel far
safer with their money in the hands
of their local bankers than in branch
banks owned by money grabbers of The
east.n At this bankers eeGiDg with
1000 bankers in aUtendanc a resolution
was adopted against the Fowler bill
and its method of settling the money
question.

Poor-Mannered Mayor.

Mayor 8. M. Jones is opposed to
the custom Of lifting the hat to
women acqnainfances. The mayor
received last week from the wife of
one of his erst while enthusiastic po-
litical supporters most indignant
letter in which she claimed that the
mayor had grossly insnlted her. The
insult lay in the fact that she had
bowed to the mayor in a street car,
and he had merely nodded, without
raising his cap. and went on with his
conversation with laboring man sit
ting beside him.
The mayor said Now Of course
had no thought OF insulting that

it is right. This lady would think

MYSTERIOUS SKELETON.
Human Bones Found in Rear of a
Business House.

Considerable mystery surrounds the
finding Of human skeleton in the
rear room Of the building occupied in
front by Usher's bar ber shop. Last
Wednesday afternoon Col. A. r John
SOB found sitting just inside the rear
door OF the room boz OF bones which
upon examination proved to be most
OF the bones OF human body. The
vertebrae are strung on 3 wire, and
the top of the skull has been sawed off.
IL is evident that the skeleton was not
recently excavated.
There is absolutely no clue AZ TO
where tho bones came from or who
placed them where they were found.
The box containing the bones bears
marks showing that it was once con-
signed to merchant III Ft. Collins.
and that it originally contained can
ned goods.
The officers are investigating but 80
far they have very little to work on
II it is scheme ON the part of some
one to fool the public it is a grusome
one. The bones will probably be
taken in charge by the coroner and
after full investigation. they will be
buried.
