flud abusive words for all people who will not affiliate with the present silver craze. If Governor Matthews should succeed in keeping the name of the National democratic party elf the Indiana tickets the republicans will not lose any sleep. If the sound money democrats be buncoed out of their rights they will vote for McKinley. They don’t have to rote for Bryan. Senator Thurston is a match for W. J. Bryan in more ways than one. Mr. Bryan had more judgment than to attempt to “edify” people on the Mexican dollar business. In 18^4 Mr. Thurston pur chased two Mexican dollars in Lincoln, Neb., for one American silver dollar and in a speecli wanted Mr. Bryan to tell him “in ease that free coinage should prevail what there was to prevent the Mexican from clipping five and one-half grains from each Mexican dollar, taking them to the United States mint and having coined into two American dollars what had been purchased for hut one. This would he a loss of 100 cents of American toil. The Mexican is certainly f>0 cents richer on each dollar coined, who then is the loser.” Mr. Bryan has never an swered the question and knew he could not successfully champion the cause of Mexican silver. A Cloverdale statesman had more nerve than Mr. Bryan, however, and recently made a dismal failure on Mexican money “edification.” Now Mr. Thurston asks Mr. Bryan to deny a democratic newspaper charge that he (Bryan) has been iu the employ as attorney for the silver mine owners of the west, at a salary of $(5,000 per year, and Mr. Bryan refuses to notice and “edify” us on that point. Here is a chance for Williamson, Daggy, Vermillion, and Burris to acquire national fame and immortal distinction. Don't hide your lights under a tuti, gentlemen. On Sept. lt>, 1803, the Democrat

Dr. Hickman will Kcinatu Terrs Haute Rxpreas. At the fourth quarterly conference at the First Methodist church Monday evening of this week, the conference made a unanimous request to the board of elders and the presiding bishop, who convene September 9th in annual conference, for the return of Dr W. H. Hickman as pastor of the church for the fourth year. The Northwest Indiana general conference which is to convene in the First M. E. church, requires entertainment for about 250 people. One of the old men that will be present is Dr. John L. Smith, of Valparaiso, who was pastor of old Asbury in 1846. Others who were formeily pastors of old Asbury and who will he present are Dr. Green, of Crawfordsville; Dr. Brook, of Rochester; Dr. Beck, of South Bend; Dr. Pavey, of Delphi; Dr. Buckles, of Lafayette; Dr. Dale, of Monticello, aud Dr. Hollingsworth, of Greeucastle. The Fnirhnnkn Meeting. The C. W. Fairbanks meeting at Brick Chapel will occur on Thursday, Sept. 3. At the risk of getting people mixed as to the date of this great meeting some people are circulating several or more dates and misleading some who desire to hear the truth. This meeting will be an all day one, with James T. Johnston in the foicnoon and Mr Fairbanks in the afternoon. It will be held at Brick Chapel, Sept. 3. Keep the date in mind. Wants no Morn Had Money. C. A. Howell, of Jackson town ship, was a caller at this office this morning. Mr. Howell was a Henry Clay Whig when lie was young and was drafted in the confederate army at the ageof 18. Ho served in that army against his will for three years and three days and had all kinds of experiences for his denunciation of secession. He was at limes placed on bread and water for expressing his opinion that the confederate army was a goner. Mr. Howell has lived in

On Nov. 18, 1893, the Democrat said : “It is hone-t, business and good polities to live up to our pledges. Reform the tarifl'.” And the following should have been added: Prepare to issue bonds, the expenses of the government must be arranged for until we have time to have a Chicago convention. When we have a convention we will inaugurate a new policy, vig.; a policy of repudiation. We cannot live up to our pledge, which declares for an international argument. We are too independent for that—entirely too independent. We see no more criticism of Ger man citizens iu the democratic local papers. It is about enough to disgust a democratic chairman to hare one of his organ grinders call German citizens “asses.” Dem-

said: The democratic party lias always been honest. It will manage to worry aKJlig without “cheap money” votes. The Chicagofied demulist party this year will absorb the cheap money votes without doubt. The National democrat party which will spring in on Sept. 3,1896, will be the party this year that will manage to worry along without the “cheap money” votes, and there are a lot of hard money democrats; there is no denying that.

Hrymi'n Definition of 16 to 1. Bryan gave this as his definition of the 16 to 1 scheme, in a speech at Pittsburgh on Monday evening: “Sixteen to one means this, that if you owe a debt you can go out into the market and buy silver and have it coined, and use tiiat silver to pay your debts.” That is, if a man owes you ten dollars for wages, he “can go out into the market and buy silver" for about $5.30, have it coined into ten dollars, and force you to take these 53 cent dollars in payment of his debt to you. Ho Sure You ure Ht|(ht. And then go ahead. If your blood is impure, your appetite failing, your nerves weak, you may be sure that Hood’s Sarsaparilla is what you need. Then take no substitute.

It would ruin this country and bankrupt everybody. Thefountain of business Is stability, and with a silver standard you can never have It. In Calcutta I can buy this suit of clothes for $40 today, and perhaps $20 tomorrow, and the next day it will be $50. You can never tell from the number of dollars you own how much you are worth. The country is at the mercy of tho money changers and speculators. The idea of going to a silver standard from a gold one is too ridiculous for serious consideration.

Putnam county nearly twenty-four years and is as strong a republican as can he found. He is for sound money with a big S, and displayed a roll of confederate money which he was forced to earn at $11 per month. He also carries two Mexican silver dollars that lie had purchased at Rockville and which he uses as an object lesson in arguing against free silver with his demo cratic neighbors. Mr. Howell wants no more cheap money in his as he has had enough experience in that lino. He is full ol war remi niscenses and can hold his own in a political talk with any of the boys.

Sour

Stomach, sometimes called waterbrash, and burning pain, distress, nausea, dyspepsia, are cured by Hood’s Sarsaparilla. This it accomplishes because with its wonderful power as a blood purifier, Hood’s Sarsaparilla gently tones and strengthens the stomach and digestive organs, invigorates the liver, creates an appetite, gives refreshing sleep, and raises the health tone. In cases of dyspepsia and indigestion it seems to iiave “ a magic touch.” “ For over 12 years I suffered from sour Stomach

with severe pains across my shoulders, and great distress. 1 had violent nausea which would leave me very weak and faint, difficult to get my breath. These spells came oftener and more severe. I did not receive any lasting benefit from physicians, but found such happy effects from a trial of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, that I took several bottles and mean to always keep it in the house. I am now able to do all my own work, which for six years I have been unable to do. My husband and son have also been greatly benefited by Hood’s Sarsaparilla — for pains in the back, and after the grip. I gladly recommend this grand blood medicine.” Mrs. Pktkb BURET, Leominster, Mass.

MR. ROVSE REPLIES-

The Sentinel Taken to Tank. It. Fallacies Shown a|> Nteely. To the Editor of the Banner Times: The Sentinel takes issue with me ou some points of my speecli here on the Kkh. However it admits that what I said is good but not trua. This lias led me to wonder What the Sentinel'e idea of goodness is. Then the allusion to “Boy Orator Royse” is hardly tilting to apply to rne. I make no pretensions to bring a youthful prodigy or boy wonder or anything of that kind. In fact my 33 years weigh almost as heartily upon me as Mr. Bryan’s 3b upon him. If I am a boy then the democrats are running a boy for the presidency. The Sentinel attacks my comparison of wages with 1893 and denied my assertions. In my speech I expressly stated that my comparisons were based on conditions prior to 1873 and that on that basis wages were higher than in 1873. The Sentinel goes to the United States Senate reports and shows that wages advanced steadily, after the pan.c of ’73 and ’74, until 1891 when the increase over 1873 was 8.5 points. For tliis point we have the authority of the United States Senate and the Indianapolis Sentinel. Now if the Sentinel had been disposed to look a little further it would Iiave seen that these same senate reports show tiiat this increase was maintained up to the close of 1892. Yet here is 20 years of gold standard policy and it is admitted by the Sentinel that with the exception of panic years wages steadily rose during all of tiiat time. Yet silver was steudil; falling at the same time. Now what of the pet argument that wages rise and fall eoucurrently with the rise and fall of sliver. And if the Sentinel would go back for comparison to 18G0-6i tho last period before '73 when we were on a specie basis it will see tiiat the increase is still greater. Wages are now fully up to the level of 18G0 if not above it. Certainly the purchasing power of wages is much higher. I will admit the Sentinel to be right on another point, viz, “wages have fallen perhaps 15 per cent, since the democrats came in power.” This seems to be what the Sentinel is laboring so hard to prove. Well we admit it. Now make the most of it. But in the same connection here is a little problem in financiering for the Sentinel to grapple with: “If wages fell 15% in three years under democratic rule ("r make it 30 |>er cent if you wish) how many years of the same rule will it take to bring prosperity to the laboring classes? It might be well for workingmen also to consider this. The Sentinel further says: “Mr. Royse’s further ingenious putting of the case involves the supposition tiiat when prices are increased, wages will not also increase. There is no basis for

the supposition. When we issued the greenbacks in 1862 wages followed prices iu their upward course though they did not overtake and pass prices until 1866.” Here again is an error as to what I said. My whole contention as to labor is on these two points: 1st, that under the gold standard the laboring man is able to buy more of the comforts of life with ids wages than formerly. 'i bis the Sentinel admits when it acknowledges a rise in wages except in panic years and democratic rule and it will claim enough decrease in cost of living to make my proposition true. 2nd, I claim that free coinage of silver would reduce the purchasing power of wages and the Sentinel helps me out iu this also when it says: “When we issued greenbacks in 1862 wages followed prices.'* Wages then did not advance as soon or as rapidly as prices. Wages passed prices in 1866 but will the Sentinel please reflect that a good part of the closing of this reach between wages and prices was due to fall in prices after tin 1 greenback scare began to subside? Wages did not rise at rapidly as prices then and never reached

tiiat period. Furthermore immediat following the beginning of the “chi dollar” period the purchasing powei wages reached the lowest point kno in our history. These were hard til for the laborer notwithstanding scarcity of labor caused by the wi drawal of men for the army. A dej eiated standard means hard times the laborer whether in ’63 or ’96. N the Sentinel has helped to show t point also, by its confession that wa did not rise as rapidly as price- in Yet the free ,-ilver advocates eonde a system whieli gave increase to laboring men and advocate a syst tiiat means the cutting down of purchasing power of wages. Nov said in my speecli “The complaint t the dollar is worth too much sim means that the laboring man can I too much of the necessities and oomft of life for the wages he receives, this be the evil and the remedy quired in the reduction of the purch ing power of wages then free si lye the proper thing.” Now the Senti comes out and proves that 1 am rie However it refers to Mexican labor i sample jf what free silver will do. it is careful to refer only to labor ported from our own country, course conductors and engineers i not go down there to work for M- xi wages. But now observe that tho > tinel only claims tiiat they get |5 (K) day. and yet Mexican dollars are o worth 50 cents of our money ever Mexico, so the high wages of thes only $2.50 per day in our money w] in our country they rarely receive than $4. But will the Sentinel dan claim tiiat in Mexico or any other | silver country the average of wa anywhere approaches to the averag. this country even in silver, to say m mg of the difference in the value of money? I shall be glad to hear f,

the Sentinel again.

Maud Duzenberry, who last week was taken into custody by officers at Brazil for driving a' pair of ponies from Spencer, arrived in this city again last night from the south on the Monon.

Mr. Du sen berry was there aud a stormy scene took place between them hut Lookabill denied strenuously any knowledge of the missing girl. Mr. Dusenberry seemed badly put out about his daughter’s latest escapade hut he is determined to find her. She is about IS years of age and he went to all the city hotels in search of her. It is thought that she is now hiding here somewhere. Lookabill admits she was on the train but says he did not come with her. Lookabill was described by parties who saw the Gosport party as being with her. He has a peculiar squint to his eyes. The girl’s father passed the Monon depot at Gosport last night a few minutes before the train arrived but did not look there for his daughter. At one af the hotels here Mr. Duzenberry was told that a young Greencastle girl came there and inquired for his daughter early this morning.
