Flitting about in our exchanges is a timely parody which reads: Tell us not in mournful numbers, life is. but an idle dream; for we see that wealth controls us and we are not what we seem. Rights, that once our statutes gave us, now no longer can we claim; for the shylock buys conventions and the candidate seeks to name.

Spoils of Office. Columbus Dispatch.

Time was when Senator So-and-so or Congressman This-and-that could reward the faithful heelers who worked for their election, by giving them offices, the duties of which they could not fill. The people simply paid their salaries and the work was

neglected.

In the past few years this state of affairs has been changed. Thera are still some offices which are subject to the base purpose of selfish politicians, but the majority are open only to men competent to perform the duties assigned them. There are now over

o. p. in hand; you must vote for Bill j b0,000 offices under civil service rules McKinley and for gold, alone, mustl! ln 1 ^ * JU * ' '■'* places above the grade of stand. Ah, but listen to the murmur;qUTosi^' a * < } aRC J .... i ar ? positions which require techniof the thunder o’er the plains; as the cal or special knowledge. Thus the people rise in anger, to protest partition of spoils is not of the imagaiust such claims. “Down with P 0 . r ^ anc ® ^ wa8 an( l the result tyrant gold,” they’re shouting, “out!* 1 - m - mea8Urably ^factory to tax-

To one who was familiar with tho old regime, the vast difference be-

upon those blatant knaves; we are freemen and, by thunder, none can

sell us out as slaves. \\ e’re for silver If'\_® en thopast and present is aston1 1 . ishing. There was an uncertainty in

tenure of office that begot a peculiar condition of things. No man knew when his head might fall, and a horde of men and women were continually exerting every means in their power to gain an entrance into public position. True, removals are still in the province of the appointing power, but the reasons for thousands of removals are lacking. When favorites and those who have been promised offices for campaign labors cannot be put in the places of the deposed, the politicians are not so apt to ask for resignations. When, instead of “a good fellow” or “a faithful hustler” being appointed to succeed the officeholder discharged, one from the competitive list is required, the motive for changing and thus often interfering with the efficiency of the service is gone. The day is fast approaching when Uncle Sam will conduct his business as any successful business is

conducted.

This brought on the fight, which ended in Anderson being stabbed. Morgan was bound over to the next term of court in the sum of $200. Failing to give satisfactory bond he was remanded to jail to await his

trial.

and for freedom and our clans are brave and true; we can beat that Bill McKinley and his Wall street masters too.” Silver! Silver! shouts the chorus, from the hill-tops far away, while the millions in the valleys, sing its praises every day. Silver will increase our wages, it will give us work each day; for ’twill thwart the mighty Shylock and will take his power away. Rising prises for our products, business for our idle men; all will come to bless the nation, when silver’s money once again. Plenty will return to millions and prosperity will reign, in the home of every workman, when silver’s money once again. When the ides of next November, gives to us the chance to win, you can bet your bottom dollar, silver will be

money again.

What Free Coinage Means. A friend at Ozark, Mo., asks us to explain precisely what “free and unlimited coinage of silver” means. He says there are few voters who really understand it. The request is reasonable and pertinent, for the whole subject of coinage, though involving the rights, the welfare, and even the liberties oi the people, is invested with complexities which puzzle them and make it easy for faithless legislators to deceive and

defraud thtm.

Such an advantage was taken in 1873, when Congress, under the lead of a few sharpers and without knowing what it was doing, dropped the silver dollar from the coinage and thereby demonetized one ot the ancient money metals of the people. Before the act of 1873 was passed any citizen having silver or gold bullion could take it to the United States mint and have it melted and molded and stamped into coins receiving in exchange the full value of it in silver or gold coins or paper money as he

might choose.

This was free and unlimited coinage—free, because it was open to all who might have gold or silver to be coined; unlimited, because there was no limit on the amount that might be coined. Tl e idea which had prevailed for ages had been that a country could not have too much gold and silver money; in fact, the more the

better.

But, while the coinage of gold is still free and unlimited, silver dollars have ceased to bo coined, and the only coinage of silver now carried on is the limited amount needed for change half dollars, quarters and

To do good mental and physical work necessitates good health, and as the bicycle is the cheapest and most available method of obtaining exercise and pleasure, we feel that every dollar invested in one adds to the capital of vitality needed for work.

The Amo Ball Games. Two games of ball were played at Amo, on Saturday, between the home club and the Amo team. Tho first game was a stunner for our boys, Amo leading them a dance to the tune of 21 to 3. The second game was much better, being .almost an errorless game for both sides, and exhibited some fine playing. At the end of the ninth inning the score was a tie—4 to 4. A tenth inning was played, without any change in the score; at the close of this inning the shower of rain d;o\ e the teams to shelter.

Picnic at Brick Chapel. A most enjoyable time was had at the picnic at Brick Chapel, given by the Epworth League of that place, on the Fourth. Big crowd, good things to eat, merry-go-round, excellent speakers in fact everything necessary to insure a happy time - even to the traditional thunderstorm. Quite a number from Greencastle were in attendance; among them Major Birch, who gave them one of his rousing good speeches. The Leaguers realized a profit of $11 from their eatables, etc., although the storm interfered somewhat.

The free and unlimited coinage of

silver would restore to that metal the right taken away by the act of 1873 and would enable any citizen who might have silver to take it to the mints and receive the value of it in coin. It would permit all the product of our silver miues—$75,000,000 a year to bo coined into dollars for service as money, escopt what is re-

quired for the industrial arts. The object and effort of taking

away the free coinage of silver was to reduce the supply ot the money one-

half, limit us to one metal, and there

by increase its value by decreasing the value of all other kinds of pro-

perty and all other products of labor. Restoration of the free and unlimit-

ed coinage ot silver would undo this wrong. It would make money—good, sound money cheaper and easit r to get. It would stimulate enterprise, quicken industry, multiply employment and increase the prices of all

products of labor.

If McKinley is nominated we shall have to meet the charge that we fried the fat out of the manufacturers in the last campaign; that we fried the fat out again to secure his nomination; that he is continuing to fry the fat to buy his election, and as a result, he will pay his political debts with a high tariff bill framed solely in the interests of tho manufacturers. With such charges as these to meet on the stump, tho campaign on the part of the Republicans will be defensive Instead of offensive. -Senator Wm. E. Chandler, in a speech before the

Convention.

McKinley Money.

Evidence accumulates that the St. Louis platform is in every line a McKinley platform. Tho fight of Mark Hanna against the word “gold” was a piece of stage play intended to hold the delegates from the mountain States to the support of the candidate. In view of their holt and nomination of Teller, the mask is no longer worth wearing. It is accordingly thrown

off.

The Dispatch has already quoted John E. Milholland, a McKinley boomer from New York, to the effect that the word “gold” went into the platform with the consent of McKinley. But stronger testimony is at hand. It will be remembered that four days before the convention met H. H. Kohlsaat of Chicago, McKinley’s confidential friend, came to St. Louis and strongly urged that the platform should not only mean “gold,” but say “gold.” Ho was understood, by all who understood the situation, to speak for McKinley. And now Mr^Kohlsaat, in his Chicago paper, assures us that he did so speak. “Readers of this paper of Saturday, June 13,” he writes, “read the gold plank as accepted by McKinley representatives at St. Louis the day before, and, better still, as approved by William McKinley himself. It was given in that issue'as ‘the McKinley gold plank.’ ” “Senator Lodge,” he adds, “who did not get to St. Louis until Sunday, June 14, found the plank gold lined and clinched when he got there.” If further evidence were needed, it could be found in Mr. McKinley’s reply to the committee notifying him of his nomination. Said he: “The platform adopted by the Republican National Convention lias received my careful consideration and has my unqualified approval.” This is the echo of Kohlsaat and Milholland. Republicans who believe in the remonetization of sliver cannot vote for Mr. McKinley without stultifying themselves, CAN SEE THE X RAYS. Peculiar Ability of » Girl, the Lens of Whoso Eye Has Horn Removed. A girl who can see the Roentgen rays has been, found by Dr. Brundes, of Halle, who discovered her. Starting from the fact that the rays do not penetrate lenses, he hunted for some one the lens of whose eyes hod been removed, an ojierutiori performed not rarely for extreme shortsightedness or for cataract. The girl, who hod had the lens of her loft eye removed, was able to sec the light with it, though her right eye. which retained its lens, could see noUUng. Dr. Brandes asserts that the raj's affects the retina of the eye, and If anyone's hand is inclosed in an opaque vessel near the source of the rays the light can be seen even with closed eyes. A COMFORTABLE BICYCLE. Invention of a Swum That Will Make the Wheel More Popular. A new Swiss bicycle, which is made the subject of a report to the state department by United States Consul Ridgely at Geneva, is claimed to possess great advantages over the usual form, among them being greater safety, perfect comfort, healthy position, a greater ;xiwer over tho machine, greater speed, hill-climbing ]>owe.r and less fatigue. The rider occupies a sitting jwsition, the present saddle is replaced by a comfortable seat, and, as the rider is in a position much lower than usual, the machine is easy to mount. •TapH AH the Same Size.

Klgurm Neeer I.le, Hut Their llnsls May He l aulty. Figures may not lie, but on the basis of statistics may sometimes be very faulty, t ommenting on this limitation of the statistic ion’s science, Carroll Tl. Wright (Kiiuts out that, in the matter of wime, the number of sentences in a ghrn state may vary with the legislation. Laws are constantly 1 >einc passed, Mr. Wright says, to raise moral delinquencies to the grade of positive crimes, and then, after a lime, such laws may be repealed, with the result of vitiating conclusions obtained by comparing one year with another. Tlris is illustrated by the record of liquor legislation in connection with crimes. l*roLibitory legislation seems uniformly to increase drunkenness, for the reason. In large part, that it increases, if enforced, the nurob"r of convictions. A new class of statistics is failed into existence. It !s to l>e noted also that, os a rule, the authorities of large citi< s are opposed to prohi ntary laws, deeming license* more rational or expedient. They are accordingly often led to enforce prohibitory laws with extreme rigor in order to make them odiousand secure their rejteal. With a license law they are lenient in making arrests of drunken persons. Thus it comes about that statistics seem to prove prohibition extremely prolific in crime, while licenses promote virtue. In any ease, errors enter the record by reason of want of uniformity in methods in various parts of a given state. This want of uniformity at a particular date is exceeded by the variations between d.fferent dates. In recent years statistics are better kept than formerly, with the effect of appearing,to show an increase it crime. But appearances are deceptive in this case, Mr. Wright thinks. In 18S0 the number of convict* in jHtnitentinncs was 37,53s, or 709 to the million of population. In 1S90 the number of convict* was 45,233, or 722 to the million of population. WOOD MOST USED. Pine Is I r :«shtone<l Into the Cireiitest Variety of Prn'lnrto. Oak can l>e put to the greatest variety of lutes, but os a matter of fact pine wood is most used. A phenomenal demand for the latter in the wood-pulp industry has arisen within recent years. Over 1,000,000 tons of wood pulp were produced in the United States alone in 1894, and 240,000 tons in Norway and Sweden, the hulk of it from pine. Pine is also largely used in ship and house carpentry, and it is adaptable to so many purposes, and is so abundant, that it has come into almost universal requisition. Common turpentine is extracted from it, ns are also tar, pitch, resin and lampblack. Splinters of the resinous roots ore used by the Highlanders instead of candles. Fishermen make ropes of the inner bark, and the Knmtehatkans and Laplanders steep the latter in water to make a coarse kind of bread. The oil obtained from the shoots of the dwarf pine is used medicinally by the peasant* of Hungary, while the soft-grained silver fir is used for the sounding boards of musical instruments, and the Germans employ it almost exclusively in their vast toy factories. The wood used in the manufacture of lucifcr matches is mostly pine, ami the aggregate amount of pine wood used in these various industries exceeds that of all other kinds of wood put together.

COINED IN CHINA. Clew to Source of Counterfeit Half-Dol-lars Circulated on the Coast. At last the United States secret service authorities have struck ft lead to the source from which have come the thousands of almost jicrfeet imitation half dollars circulated throughout the P-nClAc coast. It is believed the counterfeits, which al eolutely defy detection, except when under a powerful magnifying glass in the hands of a clever expert, wer* made by Chinese in their native land and brought to this country last summer by the members of the troupe of Chinese actors who came to America to perform at the Atlanta exposition. Al most the entire troupe is now in San Francisco, having been filling engagements in Chinatown theater* since returning from the east. It is estimated that $20,000 of the unauthorized coins have been dispoeed of by the Chinese, and that “Little Pete,” the Chinaman of recent race-track-job notoriety, was back of the scheme. However, the $20,000 realized has not been clear profit, as the counterfeits contain almost the same amount of pure silver as do tho regularly minted half-dollars, but the extremely low price of silver bullion gave tne counterfeiters a good profit, BENEDICT ARNOLD MANSION. One of the Rlr.eet Specimen* irf Colonial Architecture to He Kcfltnr<Ml. The Benedict Arnold mansion in Fairmount park, Philadelphia, is to be restored to its original condition by the Fairmount Pork Art association. It was built in 1701 by John McPherson, and with the large estate surrounding it was sold to Benedict Arnold for $80,000. The property was forfeited in 1770 on account of Arnold’s treason, and sold to Col. Richard Hamilton in 1781. It became the property of the city of Philadelphia in 1808, and since 1878 has been used as a restaurant and dwelling. So few alterations have been made in It that It stands to-day practically as it was when built. It is regar.ied ns one of the finest specimens of colonial architecture in the country.

IMITATION COFFEE.

The Name Not Fancied by Postutn Cereal Company. Coffee drinkers may be interested to know the opinion of some competent physicians in regard to the use of Postum, the grain drink, in place of coffee. it be understood thst the manufacturers do not decry the use of coffee by healthy persons, but there is u great army of intelligent men and women of the present day who cannot stand the steady, ‘laity poison of coffee, tobacco and whiskey without feeling the effect in some serious bodily derangement. Dr. F. F. Cassady, editor of the "Medical Argus,’ Minneapolis, Minn., writes, enclosing the money for a tlurd esse, and is kind enough to add: "I fully coincide with your views in regard to the use of coffee and tobacco by neurasthenics nervous patients . I am using Postum every day and am greatly pleased with it.” A great many people who are not keenly sensitive in their coffee tastes state that Postum tastes so much like coffee that they do not notice the difference when it is served at bre tkfast. The makers do not claim, however, that it has exactly the same taste as the finest coffee. It has exactly the same color, and is just as piquant and pungent in its taste as the finest Mocha coffee, but the taste is distinct and belongs to Postum tslonc. It is made by the Postum Cereal Co., lira., of Battle Creek, Mich., and it is not an imitation ol any drink, but stands On its own footing as a wonderfully palatable and delicious table drink, thoroughly healthful and nourishing, and is made strictly ot the grains. It is impossible for anyone to judge of the perfection of the product without a careful personal test of it. There are thousands of people using Postnm, the health coffee, in place of coffee, and who have been benefited in their health to an extent that commands their esteem and warm friendship for Postum. Wily grocers sometimes work in cheap imitations of Postum Cereal coflee if the customer will stand it.

Religious hate is the most relentless of aU hate. The Fourth of July number of the Youth's Companion is at hand. Exciting adventures anil narrow escapes on land and sea—capturing a grirzly in the Rockies, an effort to eclipse all previous explosions in the combination ofa balloon with dynamite cartridges tile rival celebrations ot two military companies, etc., make this number of The Companion a veritable cannon-cracker among weekly papers. The demand for good short stories never ends. The difficulty i« to meet the demand with nothing but ’ stories of lir-t-cliiss quality. No paper in America does tins better than The Youth’s Companion. Week after week aud year after year it comes out, always with good stories, new in plot and skillful in treatment, until one wonders where it gets them all and how it preserves I'S infinite variety. The editors of no other publication have a larger number of manuscripts submitted for them to choose from. Over seven thousand were received in the last prixe competition. The result is that The Companion has in every issue several short stories of the kind that makes weariness an impossibility. The paper includes among its regular contributors such writers as Harold Frederic, C. A. Stephens, E. \V. Thomson, and J. L. Harbour. Its special holiday editions are paiticularly noteworthy. The Fourth of July number this year contains some remarkable stories of the adventurous Fourth of July order. They teach a good lesson in patriotism bv showing how the glorious day is celebrated even ;u the most remote parts of the country; and they are interesting because thev tell how each section celebrates in its own way.
