THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY REVIEW.

MFRE1 COINAGE OF SILVER. (Comrauml.atlon.) Free coinage of oilver would be taking the coinage out of the bauds ot congress aud allow everybody to make nilver coin that wishes to do bo. This would be a good thiag for the mining Cos. But this is not what the free coiners mean. They want a restricted ooiuage to restrict ttie government to coin all the silver into coin that thry can get from onr nines. Thi« would do, if they were re»tri«ted to pay no more, for silver than silver is worth ou the world's market. This would be another restriction. Then again, pay the mining Cos., iu silver dollars for tlibir silver bullion and stop thove silver certificate. The miulng companies can pay thoir hands in silver certificates, and change the remainder off for gold certificates aud 20 per cent. Our government has been converted into a great bauking association with its branches iu almost every state in the United States. They are issuing lmudred oents en the dollar,Jereated out of material worth from nothing to oae huudrsd cents. The silver dollar aad the greeuback is the poor man's dollxr ami gold is the rich mau's dollar 011 account of their different grades ot legal tender. The people have a peculiar idea that more money created by the goverment wonld make better times. ThiB is a grand huaitmg. If we had $50 per capita instead of &7 we would have no better times. It is the proportional price of farm produce to that of manufactured articles. If more aioiiey issaed would inako higher prices for the farmers bow would the exporter pay more for produce here thau be could get for it in foreign counties aad make a living at ii? SnppoBe we will issue sufficient money to raise ttie price of wheat to $1.50 and take it to Liverpool and can only get $1 00 for it. We can make maaafacturei coit us more by compelling the importer to pay a certaiu tariff pur ceat. hut we cannot make exports bring us more byiputting a tariff oa them. This money erase to increase the prices is a ham bug. It would lie only a harvest for ibe capitalist to gather op. Bnt the people say why did we have good times just after the war? Because we had so uiaayjgreebacks in circulation? Ho sir. Th's was earned by the aetion of the government. It would aot take its swn paper for revenues, and compelled the importer of foreign goods to buy gold to pay the revenues, The capitalist? formed a trust on gold and made the importer pay as high as $2.62 cents for one dollar in gold. This the importer marked on his goods, making them very high, Wheat was bought at $2.50 and told at the sea board for one dollar per Bushel. When the government commenced taking greenbacks for revenues, the gold trust went down and prices went down with it, Our times were yet pretty good except those.that were in debt it left them in a bad condition bat they got oat on the bankrupt law. Now commenced tho railroads selling and consolidating their roads, issuing mortgage bonds with 7 per ceut, interest aud about 80 years run. For this they raised their freights which came off of ttie price of produce aud made goods a little higher. Thea» roads are watered to about 12 times what it cost to build thom. This enormoas tax the people are still paying. While this was going on tho goverament »aid off the United States bonds and they took the money and formed trasts or made corners on the necessaries of life and made th» people pay from double to five timeB what they ought to sell for. This is the cause ot our increasing hard times. We canuot make the price of farm produce higher. We must make manufactures and material lower by lowering the tariff and patting a grand income tax ou large incomes taxing them out of existence. Those rich are robbing the people. They are exempt from taxation, especially those of tho money aL stock capitalists. A J. UI.OUSKK.

TWO AFTERNOONS.

A hot. day. The sun directly overhead, glowing with a fire that made the air iu the shadeless canyon quiver as if heated in «n oven. Not a tree in sight, not bush everything brown and barreu. Everywhere bowlders of lava immense in sii:o and sometimes split in twain, as if in rapid cooling from the intense heat which cave them birth. Here and there between the ijray preen of the giant cacti, raising their thorny forms fifty and sixty f«:t in the air, resuming with their strangely formed limbs the shapets of immense crosses or trunks of trees from which all leaves and smaller branches have beeu torn. Between the black and brown of the sunbtin't lava an occasional tuft of tall, almost ivories.grass. Over all a stillness th a to one un accustomed to the land would seem strange and oppressive. Not a bird to break it with its song. Even the lizjirds sought out what shade they could, making with their green, ml ami variegated coats almost the only dash of color to relieve the mouotony of the all prevailing brown and black lava that each moment grew more oppressive to look at under the glow of the fiercc heat.

Save these, not a living thing was in sight except where off to the west a bnzzard tloated high in the air, and two men, with a burro lazily following, passing down the canyon.

Prospectors and their outfit. Opened shirts, showing red, hairy breasts, while their loosely buckled belts, heavy with long, bright cartridges, whose tarnished surfaces, made doubly bright only kill, kill1 from the rays of the hot sun,' seemed

strangely out of place in such quietude. Neither spoke. Kach walked along as if alone, looking for the "float" that might indicate the presence of some mineral ledge higher up, more from habit thr.n from hope, as the "formation" gave but little Judication of treasure.

How hot the sun! The burro, patient eyed, forgot his old trick of nipping the tops of the long gaete grass, and contented himself with keeping closely in the trail of the two men, whose worldly possessions of bLankets, conking utensils and tools, capped with an enormous canteen of water, he so patiently bore. Not a breath of air stirring, only t.li.r quivering heat that made the eyes burn aud ache. The men shifted their rilles constantly from one hand to another, as if to avoid getting blisters from the places where they touched the highly heated metallic parts of their guns.

Crack! crack! crack! Not fifty yards ahead, from behind a dozen bowlders leap out as many jets of fire, while the snowy white pnfls of smoke float up a few feet and disappear in the quivering air.

One of the men stops for au almost imperceptible iustant, as if to brace himself. His hands rise to the level of hischest,a* if to bring bis fle to Ids shoulder, and thendown he fall leadlong to the ground in limp mass. Dead! Shot through the head. Not a quiver, not a motion without a sound, were it not for that made by his falling ride.

As he falls his companion staggers back a pace or two, etches himself, aud then, half crouching, half falling, drops behind one of the many bowlders. "Hit!" hr thinks to himself, "but, thank God! not fatally, only a scratch." I.ife seems a new thing to live, anew joy.

Only a scratch. "Where?" He hardly has time to think as he places his gun across the bowlder and fires at a figure, naked, dark, clothed only in a breech clout, and with ,'t i-d scarf wound around the head. lie notes almost unconsciously how pronounced it.s color is against the dark face and darker hair of it.s wearer. "A miss!" he mentally remarks as the figure disappears. "Hut better luck next time," he thinks as lie pushes down the lever of his gun and throws out the empty shell, replacing it with a cartridge. ""Short range he should have hit. It can't bo that he was losing his old cunning: that, his aim was bad. "No:" he fired in haste and was "ratt led." "Another shot and he will show t.' cm" arc the thoughts that flash through his mind as be peers cautiously ahead to discover his enemies-

None in sight. For the first lime he feels jain. Half numbness, half fire: how it tears as he raises his shirt and looks at a little blue hole hardly l.-rgcr than a pea near the right, •side in the short ribs. "Only a scratch, or it would bleed .vorse. Did it go through lie asks himself, .as he passes his haiul up his back lo find if there be an orifice of o.xit. "No." "That is bad, for there is no surgeon to be had to cut tho missile out. Pshaw, what matters it Other men have lived with bullets in them- why could i,,t lie? Night, would soon come, and then with darkness he would go. He was not losing blood srlieient to weaken him much, and bv morning he would be faraway. After all it would otily lie a close call, something to tell aliont. But poor Tom! he was gone." and as he looked at the lifeless form of his partner he could hardly keep back the tears.

Crack! crack! go couple of shots off to his left, and lie sees the dust, flying up from near his feet. He tries to draw his limbs up to get them in a safer position. Tries again, and the cold sweat breaks from him. He cannot move them!

They are dead—paralyzed! Something like a sob breaks from him. It is all over. In the first flush of possible escape he had not thought of the spine being injured. He knew it uow. The game wa.s played. A few hours longer at the best. To-morrow and the next day, arsl the days and the years come, would find him there. The end was only a question of a short time. i.'et he had only thought it a scratch. rao

With his arms he drags himself into a safer position. This done, he unbuckles his belt, and .vs he lays it. before him to have it handy he thinks of the time away back on the Platte when be had first put one on. How proud lie then felt, .-is a stripling boy, of he outfit! How bright the future had In.iked! -And now it was all to end. Alter all. life to him bail lieen a hard one. |t had brought to him few of the treasures lor .vhieii he had longed. For an instant lie thought "why not take the six shooter and end it. all?" I "Suicide?" "No." .he would die fighting. lb-would lake some of them with him. el, why kill at. all. They were bnt savages Apaches. Their deaths would mean nothing, would gain nothing. Better to kill himself and keep from them the satisfaction of doing it. No relief might oon.e. Some of the many scouting parties of cavairy alwaxs iu I lie field, or perhaps a party ol prospectors might hear the firing, and hen with a good doctoral! would yet he well, lie could find orie at anv of the military posts.

All heso thoughts and a thousand uiher* ('i)'.ril..i| through his brain while he was placi .^ himself in a better position for defense. Cautiously raising himself I he glanced over the bowlder in the dirccion whence lie last shots came. Crack I crack! crack! the bullets whiz surlily around bitn.

1

"«ng!. bang! bang! trues the rifle. I

A now fediug takes possession of him. His nerves tighten like steel, and he pumps empty shells oat of tnu rifle's chamber and cartridges in with a ficrcc speed. Kill! kill! Let him take one of those howling murderers with him, and be doesn't care bow soon after death comes. But. what is the matter with his aim? He has not yet killed one, not even wounded oue that he knows of. He refills the magazine of his rifle in nervous, feverish luiste, and then peeps through the crevices of the bowlders to see if there is an enemy in sight. None. They are there, though. Tliey are waiting and he is dying. How hot it is! He is burning up with thirst and he.it. How "it'' hurts. He has got so that he thinks of h:r wound only as "it," as if it were some terrible monster that he could not escape.

The blood—small as the quantity—that Hows from his wound bits formed a pool, clotted and coagulated. It adds to his discomfort by its stickiness. He thinks how strange that one's own blood should annoy one so, and then wonders where so many Hies con hi have come from, as he raises a swarm by the movement of his body. He looks across to where the burro has fallen with the canteen, and sees that the vessel has lx*u 11 jammed by coming in contact with the bowlder, and that the precious fluid bus nearly all run out. How much he would give to have what little water remains! lie feels almost tempted to try to reach ii, but no that would mean throwing bis life away without a chance for revenge. Revenge? Ho will havo it. Thirst is nothing death is nothing now if he can

If he could only kill them all, how happy he would die! He looks over the bowlder. Nothing in sight but bowlders, lava, cacti, sand and gaete grass. "They are there, though." He almost laughs in sarcasm as he. catches himself scanning the horizon to see if any relief wore iu sight. Relief? For days he and the man that lay dead there had traveled without finding a trail made by a shod horse—without finding a trail of any kind. How childish to expect any help! Better brace up and die like a man.

He looked at the body of the dead man. How hideous the face looked with ita swollen lips, open mouth, staring eyes! How black it had grown! What a vast quantity of blood had come from the wound in tLe head! His eye witches a movement in the tuft of grass his left. Bang! bang! goes his rifle. "Nothing there," he thinks, as he crouches closer to the ground to escape the shots that come in return.

So the hours go by, but he hardly marks their flight. The sun is getting lower in the west, and the white heat of day gives way to the yellowish purple haze that in Apache land is always the forerunner of night. How when he was first hit he had longed for night! How little he cared for it now! He could feel himself growing weaker. His Winchester was heavier than any he had ever before lifted. Even "it," that terrible tiling that chained him there, pained him less, but the thirst grew horrible. Anyhow night would give him a chance to reach the canteen. At times he felt almost drowsy, but fought off the feeling. He was merely waiting for the. end. He thought it strange that he could face it so complacent!}-. lie hardly cared now hoAr soon it came. Would lie shoot all his cartridges away before it reache him? He would not waste them though. If he could only rcach Tom's gun and revolver and destroy them it would mal those that killed him angrv. It. is for these things, worth perhaps $50, that he and Tom had been rminJered.

He was beginning to think of himself as already dead. At least how easy to ruin lom.s rifle. It was only two or t.hr paces aw.vi. He took bis revolver and fired at it, aiming to hitifcjnstin front and below the hammer, its mast, vulnerable part. Instead, the bullet hits the ground, and richochcting enters the breast of the dead man. He shudders as the body stirs from the. force of the shot., nlthough he knows that life has been gone for hours. Everything is plain to him now why his other shots had not taken effect. He was unnerved. How cotiid a man with a hole through his body hope to hit anything. Ho had heard of men shot through tho heart killing their assailants, and had often wondered if he could do it! Could Tom have done it? JIow far off and yet how short seemed the years that be and Tom had been together! How little there had been in them that seemed worth now rt calling! Crack! asinglo shot, off to the right, and he fires where he sees the smoke curling .upward. Fires again. Nothing. He counts his cartridges and is astonished that he has fired so many. He must have lost. some. No, there are the empty shells.

Another shot, off to the right. One to the front, He fires at both, lie feels that he is growing nervous, and brings all his remaining powers into play to securc better control of himself. He will put away the idea of death, of his wound, of everything but revenge. Only one, and be will be sat isfied, and for the first time in years he prays, prays without words, though, that, 'lie may kill but one.

The sun is sinking lower: it has almost reached the l'ar off western mountain tops, it would soon be night, and then what would "t.hey" do? Steal up under cover of the darkness and shoot him from behind some bowlder before he would be aware of it.. He would keep a close lookout, and perhaps he might after all "get." one of them.

Crack! crack! to th-i right, and left, and he glances in both directions, firing ateach and then right over him takes pla^ a terrible explosion, and he feels as if something heavy and blnnt bail struck him in the back. He half raises himself, just, enough to turn his face upward. Another explosion, another heavy, blunt blow, and through the smoke from a revolver he sees a dark young face, wit black, glittering eyes, white teeth, across which the lips are tightly drav.n—the face and the form of one almost a boy—and then he falls backwhile a dark hand and arm snatches his gun from his half clinging frasp. He hears wild shout in,/, and I rough his glazing eyes sees dark forms scrambling for his arms, .• 1 ours. They are even quarreling in '..41' eagerm ss to tear the pack from the -ad burro, and then instinctively he sees ne raise .something in theair, and when it fal.s there is no longer anything human in the face or the head of t,he man who lias spout- the afternoon iri fight. Nothing but. a bloody pulp of skull, ha brains, broken teeth, crushed into a' misshapen mass by he liowlder cast upon il bv an Apache.

Another afternoon, years after, a tall sergeant and his detail of cavalry escorting through the canyon a party locating a road" looks down on the whitened bones of two men and a burro scattered by covotes and bleached by the winds and rains, and as he. with the toe ol his boot, pushes to one side the ribs of one of the skeleton- his
