THE Springfield (Mass.) News remarks wmost pertinently that it is a funny if not a suspicious thing to see these ultra rich men fretting themselyes 8o terribly over the disastersthat will fall upon the poor people under tree silver. . ; t
THERE are a few over thirteen mil-lion-voters in the United States. Threefifths of them earn their living by tilling the soil and with few exceptions, especially in the South and West, are either populists or favor free silver. The: populistic vote in ‘this state last year was 36,900. :
I 18 pointed out that Mr. Bryan has had many harbingers of yictory since his nomination at Chicago. First, the New York Sun repudiated him, a fact which is most assuring for his election; and now-a New York minister attacks him from the pulpit. Mr. Bryan will probably win hands down.
THE eastern bankers have allat once become very fiatrioth and after a big blare of trumpets come to the aid of the nationz! treasury to hold the gold redemption fund up to .$100,000,000. These. selfsame fellows are the ones who are to blame for the disappearance of the money and it is very easy for them to put back what they persist in takmg out. ' !
THE attempt of a few eastern bankers to bolster up the gold reserve until after the clection will fool no one. These selfsame fellows will be the first on hand to buy the bonds that is made necessary by the situation after the
people lave been hoodwinked into
voting for a continuation of the very v conditions that make such action
~ necessary. It may be that the people !~ will allow themselves to be fooled again, but the chances are bright for an awakening to the situation.
‘THx fact that all the ¢‘soulless corporations,”” monopolists and oppressors of labor as all “‘organized wealth’’ are arrayed against the Chicago platform, is of itself enough to create more than a well founded suspicion that its doctrines carried into effect, would result in the greater prosperity and liberty of the masses and be a serious check to the greed of the classes, But no voter 'should make up his mind from such facts alone, though they are significant and ought to be considered.
- THE Scientific American, of New York, has signalized its fiftieth anniversary by the publication of a yery ‘handsome 72-page Bpecial number that consists of a review of the deyelopment of science and the industrial arts in the United States during the past fitty years. It was an ambitious undertaking, and the work has been well done: The many art.i_cfias are thoroughly technical, and they are written in a racy and popular style, which makes the whole volume— it is nothing less, being equal to a book of 442 ordinary pages, thoroughly readable. It is enclosed for preservation in a fine coyer.
Tae new silver certificates that will soon be issued in the denominations of one, three, five and ten dollars are a complete change from the commercial “styles heretofore so popular. Besides being’'a medium of exchange, each note is designed to serve an. educational and sentimental purpose. Al) are decorated, on the faces, entirely with allegoric groups referring to conspicuous eyents in history and to the values of our difterent arts, sciences and industries. They also contain the names of men of all classes who have served in this country a 8 epoch-makers. The educational ides is that every man or child who possesses even a dollar will be attract“ed by the new designs and will seek to loarn their meaning.
THEY call that man a ‘statesman whose ear ig turned to catch the slightest pulsations of a pocketbook, and denounce as a demagogue anyone who dares to listen to the heart-beat of humanity.—William J. Bryan, '
1 am certainly of the opinion that gold and silver, at the ratio fixed by congress, constituted the legal standard of yalues in this country, and that neither congress nor any state has authority to establish any other standard to displace this standard.—Daniel Webster. :
FrRANCE, with a bimetallic standard, keeps over $500.000,000 of silver, coined at the ratip of 15} to 1, at a parity with gold, by simply paying it out and receiving it in payment on an 'equality with gold. Yet France has only about half the population and,business and about one-tenth the extent of territory that we have. We ought as easily to float a billion dollars of silver, and we can dg it without redeeming it with gold, too. :
Axpagain Goyvernor Matthews comes in for criticism at the hands of the republican press, this time for taking.a stand in fayor of the maintainance 'of state rights and against federal interference. A decision ot the state gupreme court was overruled by Judge Woods of the United States courts in a case where according to all precedents the latter court bas no jurisdiction either by right or implication. It immvolved the collection of taxes in the city of Hammond and the .governor advises the mayor to. proceed to the collections notwithstanding the position to the contrary held by the federal court. j i
THERE are quite a number of capitalists in this state who are determined not to pay taxes on their money. Reports haye been receiyed at the office of the state commissioner of insurance from 100 of the building and loan associations of the state which shcw that the decision of the supreme court holding paid up stock taxable is resulting in wholesale withdrawals of that kind of stock from the associations, In one association paid up stock to the face value of 75,000 has either been withdrawn or convyerted. These fellows went into these associations to escape taxation and they now will try some other method.
In 1890 W. D. Bynum of Indianapolis was elected to congress as a Democrat upon the regular state platform which contained the following as the financial plank: “We denounce the gilver bill (the Sherwman act) so called recently enacted, as an ignominious surrender to the money power. It perpetuates the demonetization of silver and the single gold§ standard, whereas the interests of the people require the complete remonetization of silver and its restoration to the‘perfecf equality with gold in our cojnage. We demand the free and unrestricted coinage of silver upon the basis existing prior to 1873.”" - Mr. Bynum was then asking free silver Democrats to vote for him, He was then in full accord with: his party, at least he zave nosign thg.t%?*e was in any way displeased with the position taken on the financial quegtion.- But today, asthe paid attorney of the eastern money power he is crying down the very same tenets of his party that he so enthusiastically supported as its candidate. Bynum is not honest. :
THEY EAVE CHANGED OPINION. - In 1878 when R. B. Hayes of Ohio wag president by virtue of southern returning boards; when the republican party was in power; when they had some regard for the people and had not yet adopted the opinion of European = monometalists, .Stanley Matthews. of Ohio, introduced the following resolution in the United States senate: *‘Resolved, That all ot the bonds of the United States issned or authorized to be issued undér the said acts of congress hereinbefore recited are payable, principal and interest, at the option of the United States, in silver dollars of the coinage of the United States, containing 412} grans each of standard silver and that to restore to its coinage such silver coins as are legal tender payment of said bonds, principal and interest, is not in violation of public faith, nor in derogation of the rights of public creditors.’’ =
This was adopted by a vote of 43 to 22. in the senate and by 189 t0.79-in the house. Many of the leading Republicans yoted for this resolution. It was right then, why not now? In the face of this resolution, never repealed. it is now contended that these bonda should be paid in gold. The republican platform promises this to the gold bugs for the election of McKinley. 3 Dr.‘ and Mrs, Buchtel, ; Girl. : We are in receipt of a neat announcement of the arriyal of Miss Adele Lucile Buchtel into the family circle of Dr. I. O. and Mrs. Buchtel at Auburn. Speaking of the event the Daily Courier of the 24th inst, says: There are girls, and girls, but the little 9} pound lady at Dr. Buchtel's is ‘“the’’ girl just at present. She was born last evening, July 238, at about 9:15 o’clock, and is as fine a little one as has ever graced West Seventh, a street that has been noted for years for its fine babies, and lots of them. That reminds the Courier that Seventh street is on a boom, and ‘‘west‘ward the star of empire takes its way,”’ in the good old-fashioned way. We have only to add, that the doctor is “‘as well as could be expected,” and he will be able to take care of the other two. it . After Harvest Notice. .

A NFW YORK OPINION OF BRYAN, The manner in which the opponents of the ticket nominated at Chicago have begun their campaign must rouse the profoundest resentment of every American regardful of the interests and jealous of the honor of hisfycountry. The representatives of half the Ameri can people have been denounced in delirious language as anarchists, cuatthroats and swindlers. Their chosen candidate for the highest office in the republic has been pictured as a crazy} Jacobin or a designing demagogue. Commerce and industry have.'beenl threatened with the very panic these alarmists profess to fear. | This crusade has been one of reckless misrepresentation from the start. The libelers of the late conyention know that the Chicago platform is not anarchical. - In most respects itis inspired by enlightened progressiveness. The anarchical elements in the convention—Tillman and Altgeld—were distinctly frowned upon, Tillman was hissed whenever he rose to speak. The mild impelled criticism of the majority of the supreme court, or, rather of the one justice who changed his mind, was thoroughly well deserved and might haye been. made much stronger without impropriety. Since when.have we been endowed with infallible judges, whose acts are above eriticism? _lf the advocacy of the just and -scientific principle of taxation of large incomés was anarchistic, then every statesman in England is an anarchist and instead of searching *the cellars of ‘the houses of parliament fot?ebarrels of gunpowder, the authorities ought to search the pockets of every member for bombs The income tax is the backvone of the British financial system; it is about to be introduced, in a graduated form at that, into France, and 1t already exists in the most extreme degree in Germany. The condemnation ot the practice of substituting government by injunction for the o!d, orderly processes of courts and juries, so far from being revolutionary, is a yindication of the uncient rights of the English-speaking race against a novel and dangerous innovation which deserves the name of anarchy much better than anything done at Chicago. :
The platform reaflirms the principle indorsed by the vast majority of the people of the United States, 6f a tarift for revenue only and protests against: the disturbance to business that would be caused by a return to McKinleyism. There is nothing incendiary in that. In this point it is the Chicago platform that is conservative and the one adopted at St. Louis that is revolutionary. , “Wehold,” adds the democratic profession of faith, ‘'that the mosteflicient way of protecting American labor is to prevent the importation, of foreign pauper labor to compete with it .in the home market.” That 18 honest, straightforward protection—the only kind that does what it pretends to do. L - The Chicago platform demands simplicity and economy 1n government and protests aganst the profligate waste of money that has characterized republican legislation. ‘l'hat is mot the reckless spirit of a mob, It i 8 rather the sober utterance of prudent property owners and taxpayers’ of whom the Chicago convention was principally composed. ; ;
The protest against arbitrary federal interference in local affairs is one which Jefferson would haye commended as the very foundatfon stone of his political faith. In denouncing the attempt to swindle the government out of more than $200,000,000 by extending the Pacific railroal debts the convention was fighting anarchy, for there can be no more dangerous anarchists than those who are powerful enough to override the laws and amass wealth from the property of the people. ; ' Moreoyer the. silver plank in the Chicago platform does not deserve the frantic vituperation leveled against it. Lf its authors were mistaken in their methods, their aim was to introduce bimetallism and bimetallism is a scientific theory with too much expert authority on its side to brand its advoates as lunatics or incendiaries :
Nor ig it possible with any more sincerity to call Mr. Bryan a demagogue. He is the very reverse of a demagogue. He follows. the truth as he sees It, though 1t led him to political destruction, Last vear he could muster only ten thousand votes for his faction in Nebraska out of over 180,000 bat he had no thought of com- | promise. He fought on regardless of | victory or defeat, thinking only of what he believed to be right. If he had not been nominated nobody would have dreamed of calling him a demagogue, His spirit is rather that of a prophet. ' , On the other side’ we have William McKinley, bound hand, foot and ’tongue to the most corrupt combina‘tion that ever exhibited litself openly in an American presidential campaign. His election would .put the resources of the government at the disposal of ‘the Hanna syndicate. It would mean ‘a return to Chinese protection and the ‘exploitation of the people by a rapacious ring of mandarins. It would ‘mean in the end a popular revolt beifore which a frightened conseryatism ‘might pray for a leader with the moderate instincts of Bryan. j ~ In most respects the superiority of the democratic candidate is so palpable as l to make comparisons needlessly cruelto his opponent. What, then, is -the duty of American citizens who desire to secure the best possible government for the republic during the next four years? Plainly it is to vote for that presidential candidate who is manifestly best fitted to administer the ‘government and to settle the financial question through their representatives in congress. Gold men may vote for gold candidates, silver men for silver candidates und bimetallists for bimetallists. But nobody who realizes what is gt stake.ln this campaign can vote to abandon government of the people, by the people for the people in favor of government of Mckiniey, by . Hanna, for a syndicate.—New York Journal. .
The New Hook Spoon Free to All.
I read in the Christian Standard that Miss A. M. Fritz, Station A., St. Louis, Mo., would give an elegant plated hook spoon to anyone sending her ten 2-cent stamps. I sent for one and found it so useful that I showed it to my friends and made $13.00 in two bhours taking orders for the spoon. The hook spoon is a household necessity. It cannot slip into the dish or cooking yessel, being held in the place by a hook on the back. The spoon is something that housekeepers have needed ever since spoons were first invented. Anyone can get a sample spoon by sending ten 2-cent stamps to Miss Fritz. This is a splendid way to make moneyJ around home. Very truly, 2 i 1418 t JEANNETTE 8. |
. Face Washes. The following recipes are recommended by an old lady who doesn’t use them—because soap and water are cheaper: Putin a vial one drachm of benzoin gum in powder, one drachm of nutmeg oil, six drops of orange blossom tea or apple blossoms, put in half pint of rain water; boiled down to one teaspoonful, and strained, one pint of sherry wine. Bathe the face morning and night; will remove all flesh worms and freckles, and give a beautiful complexion. Or put an ounce of powdered gum of benzoin in a pint of whiskey; to use put in water in washbowl till it is fnilky. allowing it to dry with wiping.—New York World.
To Restore a Lake.
A few years ago Dewart lake, that fine body ?f,water lying six miles southeast of Milford was drained and its water level lowered seyeral feet. This step was taken by the neighboring land-owners in the hope of reclaiming a portion of the then submerged lands, the lands drained however haye proved to be practically worthless for agricultural purposes, being nothing but marlbeds, unfit for crop growing, or eyen pasturage. Seeing that in draining these they but damaged their beautiful lake, the farmers of the vicinity are now considering plans for damming the lake and thus restoring its former water level. The people hereabouts will all be glad to see this result accomplished.— Milford Mail, T / 5 letler From a ¥ocrmer Bentonite, NortoN, Kan. July 13. 1896. Hon, Milton Mercer, ! DeaAr Sir:—l have been greatly - ‘ terested m your free silver articles that I have read through the columns of the Goshen Democrat The nomination of Bryan and Sewall gives unusual ‘satisfaction to the free silver people out here. 1 have yoted the republican ticket for 25 years, but this year I shall support Bryan and Sewall. I know of at least 25 in this town, lifelong Republicans, who have bolted the St. Louis gold plank and come out for the Chicago ticket. How many more will do the same, it is too early to predict. This state will give Brvan and Sewall 25,000 majority at a very conservative estimate. ‘ Yours truly, : ; L. H. THOMPSON. Another Silver Convert, Alba Heywood, well and favorably ‘known here, will take -the stump for free silver this fall. .To a Battle Creek Moon reporter he said: ‘I have been a strong Republican all my life until this campaipn opened. When my party shut out free silver .I left the ranks. Yes, I expect to take the stump for free silver as soon as my engagements are closed. which will be soon. No, there is no money in it except my. expenses. I do it from principle because I think 1t is right. I have read and studied everything- I could get bearing on the subject on'either side, and while at first 1 was a strong advocate of a gingle standard, investigation has shown me that 1 was wrong and that free splver is the thing for the masses, and I shall do all I can between this and election time. ‘The laboring man must be respected and protected.’” ‘ ; Boodle Wins Again, Since Henry B. Taylor was nominated for congress at Kendallville in 1872.. there has probably neyer been so large attendance by the Republicans of this county, at a convention outside the county, as at the senatorial convention at Angola, last Thursday. That at Kendallyille was the last of its kind, and it is hoped that that at Angola will be also. Delegates for such conventions should be elected at home by the townships. This thing of picking up friends here and there in the county not a few of them having to be shipped to the convention at somebody’s expense, cannot be too soon frowned down. It is reported that there were 354 from this county in attendance, though the county was entitled to but thirty votes in the con\'Ention. These thirty could have been chosen at home, the people been given better representation, a big sum of money saved and. the appearance of much evil avoided.—LaGrange Standard. I
The Sea is a Little Rough,
There is a suspicion that Dr. Knepper ran into a hornet’s nest when he visited Goshen the other day. The doctor wants to represent this joint representative district in the state legislature, but before he can stand much show of election he must square himself on the charge of pledging a vote for a superior court at Elkhart. The gentleman has some other " things to explain also before he can reconcile some of his party members here to his candidacy. It is understood that he was sold out bag -and baggage to C. W Fairbanks. Pre-pledged legislative candidates may find themselves in an embarrassing position. There is a strong probability that the friends of Benjamin Harrison will urge his election and in that event, if all reports are trae, Dr. Knepper cannot vote for him but must deliver the goods his friends contracted at Kendallville: The Republicans of Elkhart county would favor the e¢lection of Mr. Harrison as against any other man.— Goshen Sunday Post, 0 }
That Benton Ghost. . Some enterprising newspaper correspondent has located a ghost in Benton township. It is none of your cheap affairs either, but the real gold standard article. This spook has all the appearance of a man: except that it does not fall when shot to pieces. According to the newspaper romancer the other night a company of picked men went out to the spot where| its ghostship appears and at an opportune time a volley of Feaden pellets were fired mto it from trusty rifies and reliable shot guns. 1t is admitted by the narrator that the thing disappeared after the fusillade but bobbed up again a little distance away. Then one ot the party bolder than his companions rushed forward with a corn cutter and chopped the apparation into the blocks of five. The thing even then gathered up its parts and continued to dance about. Some of the people are mean enough to accuse Commissioner Ed Kinnison with wsing a ghost to frighten the honest yoeman of Benton into voting for the ghastly gold bug. —Goshen Post. M Eli Hill, Lumber City, Pa., writes ““I have been suffering from piles for twenty-five years and thought my case incurable. DeWitt’s Wgtch Hazel Salve was recommended to me as a pile cure 8o I bought a box and it performed a permanent cure.”” This 1s o nly one of thousands of similar cases.

' NEARLY A SHUT-OUT, The Wanitas Win from Syracuse in a Fine | Game—Reed, the Home Pitcher, Covers Himself with Glory—Outside 'Help Hardly Needed, ' & _Sowe weeks ago the Ligonier 5/" team, badly crippled by the -~ .absence of several of their \\ = strongest men, went to Syracuse where they were done e up by the local club. In fact B our boys were not in the game at any time and the defeat was only measured by the endurance of the Syracuse base runners. Flushed with victory and with the reputation of being one of the best clubs in Northern Indiana, the Syracuseans came over on Tuesday to again try conclusions with the Wanitas. They had Goss and Carbenier, the crack battery, and were assisted by Will Inks of this city, who: played &t short. It looked as if they expected to win, and in fact they had license to do it as the boys are all good ball players who go into a game to win. They play well together and take about all the chgnces that come their ‘ way and put«nffim strongest game of ball shown on the Ligonier grounds for years. Outside of a couple costly errors in the first inning they put up a game that would have won nine out of ten of the contests they have been in this season. All who missed the game have good reason for regretting it as beyond any doubt it was the best exhibition of ball playing ever seen on the local grounds. Both clubs ,2 3 played ball and the home ' - team put more ginger into $, /S their playing than ever be-| G fore. But few errors were l made on, either side; in fact N N . it was a game worth seeing. TEN Reed of the Wanitas put up a beautiful game in the box and was well supported by Teal behind the plate. Thejy worked together perfectly, neither having an error. The only man among the visitors who could do anything against Reed’s delivery was Carbenier, their hard-hitting catcher. He never failed to hit the ball, and it was his long drive in the eighth that gave Syracuse their only run. and this after two men were out. Had Reed used a little diplomacy at this point it -weuld have been a shut-out. He ought to have given Carbenier a base on balls rather than to allow him to hit out one of his long driyes which he did after two strikes had been called. It was a three-bagger, bringing in Hoff who had got to first on a scratch -hit. - The first inning gave the Wanitas three runs. Stutzman the first man to bat hitting safe for a base; Kagey struck out; Knepper hit safe adyancing Stutzman when Behan hit for two
—, bases, scoring both Knepper and . Stutzman. A- sacrifice e by Scott and a wild throw S‘ gave Behan a chance to score ( when Reed flew.out to Kendig leaving Stage on second. 1t was one, two, three for Syracuse for two innings, but in the third they.got a man on first. It was the same in the fifth, Carbenier being left on third. There were several times that a good mt would have made things interesting for Ligo~ nier, but Reed was able to keep the ball away from them. The only ones who hit him safe were Carbenier and Irwin, but the latter was forced-out at second each time after getting safe. He was in hard luck all through the DRMO. i i
Will Inks for Syracuse hit the ball after the first time at the bat when Reed struck him out much to the amusement of the crowd, but loks’ hits were unlucky. Shobe was able to get under what seemed to be a safe hit, making a beautiful catch after a hard run. Knepper stopped another hot one off the- bat that looked like a two bagger. Stutzman at third was in splendid form. He did npot® miss a chance and he went after every thing that came his way. He caught two most difficult flies and made some pretty stops; at the bat he excelled, in fact he played an all around good game, Shobe made some splendid catches as did left fielder Behan whose long running catch of Miller’s hit in the second inning stopped what seemed to be atwo bagger, The home team put up a strong game, one that would have beaten a better club than has visited Ligonier this year and one that put lots of life into the cranks who had the pleasure of seeing it. . The visitors are a nice lot of ball players. They are all gentlemen who play ball tor amusement and always to win. They put up a good game and did not deserve the treat- % ment they received from O the bleachers(?) Outside ’\ of a couple of excusable . g,errors their playing will *~compare most fayorably -~ with that of any club tlfit ~ has visited .Ligonier tifis seagon. Our boys must not think for a moment that they will have a snap when they play the deciding game of the series. The Syracuse boys put up good ball and odr boys have to play ball to win. Abe Wertheimer did the umpiring and it was satisfactory to both sides, outside of a little kicking by the visitors on his calling of balls and strikes on Pitcher Goss. It looked as if the umpire was doing the right thing by both sides. The summary of the game is as follows: : :

What a Woman Can Do,
Last week I cleared, after paying all expenses, $355.85, the month previous $260 and have at the same time attended to other duties, 1 belieye any energetic person can do equally as well, as [ have had very little experience. The dish washer is just lovely and every family wants one, which makes selling very -easy. I do no canvagsing, People hear about the dishwasher and come or send for one. It is strange that a good, cheap dish washer has neyer before been put.on on the market.

The August St. Nichohas,
The August number of St. Nicholas opens with a Russian story by Fanny Locke Mackenzie, ‘‘The Little Duchess and the Lion Tamer.”” The story has striking illustrations by C. M. Relyea. Elizabeth Robins Pennell tells of an. odd annual race in a quaint old Italian city, “The Palio at Siena.” Eugene Field the children’s poet, is made the subject of two sympathetic articles, one by Mary J. Reid and Henrietta Dexter Field, the latter the wife of the poet’s brother, and. the other by Martha Nelson Yenowine. Harry M. Lay shows the surprising things that may be done with **A Sand Pile.”” For the amusement ot his children he had a pile of sand in the back: yard of his city home and with'this and with the ald of toys he made remarkable battle scenes. Photographs of them would seem at the first glance to be pictures of actual conflicts-on a large scaie. Ernest Ingersoll, in ““The Tricks of Torpedo Boats,” tells of night prac~ tice with these little scouts of the sea against the great white cruisers™: All of the serials have interesting instalments. There is a clever poem written and illustrated by Uliver Herford, “‘A Bunny Romance,’”’ and the usual number of pictures, verses and jingles.
