Indiana, on Saturday, September 2nd, l s ofi, at which time a board of seven directors will be elected and other important business transacted. L. L. Ponsler, Pres. D. W. Shields. Secy. Silver has been used as money for about 0.000 years. Gold is a money that is always wanted when it can not be had. “The voice of the people will be stronger than the voice of gold.” The money power never asked the Republican party for anything it did not get. Happy thought, wise conclusion, yea, a true, full and fair explanation: “Old Cleveland is the cause of it.” The Democratic party is divided on the single standard. It will not do the bidding of the gold bugs unless aided by Republican votes. Our monetary system is wron" somewhere and every intelligent man knows it. It is the part of good citizenship to study this ouestidn and to act upon it independent of party politics.

“Me Too, Pete."

“I agree with Mr. Cleveland' tnal simply repeal -without amendment or substitute, is the only thing to be considered now.”—Benj. Harrison. If the gold bugs lind a better friend in Cleveland than they found in Harrison it is because he is an abler man. If tlie Democratic party does more for the money power than the Republican party has done. and is still willing to do, it is because it will have bettor opportunities. The contest to-day, between these two parties is, which can do the more for wealth. Heaven knows our debts are hard enough to pay now, but should the Sherman law be repealed without proper substitute they would be doubly hard to pay. This action by congress would leave the country “stuck” ou a gold basis as securely as a ship grounded on a Florida reef. Silver would then be completely 7 demonetized and the debtor would then have to face his creditor shorn of half his ability to I>ay. No sane man who is not under the influence or pay of the goldi tes but will admit that the gold basis is insufficient to uphold the great fabric of our commerce. We need both gold and silver as such basis, and that congress which ordains otherwise will go down under the overwhelming and everlasting condemnation of the people. The old parties during the. last campaign were poking their jeers and jibes at the People’s party in various ways. A favorite epithet was that of “Calamity Howler," a term applied to them because iu their speeches and through their newspapers *hey pointed out the fact that without a change of linancial j*>!icy /ue ship of state was going surely upon the rocks of rain. How about it now, breth- • ren." In all candor x>aae for-

ward and confess the corn. Who were the true prophets? Witness the terrible financial srorm abroad in the land at this v r ery hour, and then answer. More than three hundred banks and thousands of once prosperous business enterprises have been swallowed up in the great vortex of commercial disaster, and the end is not yet. The | People's party is the only party that can point back to the recent campaign and truthfully say, “we told you so.” Fear of “Democratic free trade!” Why did not this fear come last November? No president ever received as large a; vote as tariff reform Cleveland j received last fall. No party was ever so overwhelmingly defeated as was the Republican protection party nine months ago, and now you say from fear of free trade legislation this panic is brought about. Are the American people so ignorant, so fickle minded, and so short sighted as to vote themselves into such a hole as this? No, our voters were not afraid of free tiade when they voted for Cleveland, they understood both parties upon the tariff question —really tariff was the only question that was allowed to be discussed, and the people voted for it to be reduced. Nobody in this country is afraid of free trade, nobody is expecting free trade; on the tariff question the people are now with Cleveland just as they were last November. Let us lay politics aside and vs common sufferers look into thg cause of the present trouble. Now is no time to be looking after the interests of a set of politicians, no time to be seeking party advantages. We are in the midst of a great financial panic. Fortunes are daily passing away, thousands are daily thrown out of employment, want and distress are appearing on every side, and the questions with all honest me are, what is the cause and what is the remedy? While sincere, patriotic men are honestly inquiring into these great troubles, honestly seeking remedies for relief, wicked, designing men are trying to deceive and mislead. Many politicians of the Republican stamp are trying to make political capital, trying to get party advantages out of the people’s distresses, knowingly and designedly they are trying to hide from us the real origin and cause of this great money famine* that is bringing so much trouble and want upon our land. We hear such expressions as “the free trade panic, want of confidence in the Democrats, free silver and wild cat money madness,” * etc. A man giving out such trash as this to a distressed people, to an honest people that are earnestly and sincerely seeking to learn the cause of, and the remedy for our present financial ills would give his child a stone when he asks for bread, would steal the cripple's cruel) or adulterate the sick man’s medicine. There is not a Republican editor or politician in the state but knows he maliciously lies when he says the fear of free trade legislation is causing the present financial disturbances. There is not a Republican editor or politician but knows .that the Cleveland administration is anti-silver; there is not a Republican editor or politician but knows that free silver, be it good or bad, will never come unless enough Republicans vote with the silver wing of the Democratic party to bring it.

The British Lion Plays “Bull and Bear.”

Those who have watched closely the course of recent events, can plainly see the paw of the British Lion in the financial affairs of the United States in the last few months. He has been “bearing” the general commerc ill interests of this country

by “bulling" the money market. ! Six months ago London began to call American gold and kept it up until we had lost many millions of dollars of the yellow metal to her. As it was then shown gold was actually imported into England at a loss to the importer. Why this was done American financiers could (not then understand, but now the object is very apparent, j England doubtless surmised that a continual drain of gold eastward would cause a stringency in the money market here, which would in turn create a panicky condition in the business world. This would destroy confidence, j bringon disaster and inauguerate: an era of falling prices as a! sharp stringency in the money ' market always does. How well j she laid her plans and guessed | the result the present condition of affairs demonstrate. Wheat is now selling in the market at a lower price than ever known. Gilt edged stocks and bonds are likewise ruinously low. Business is stagnated and prices running down out of sight. Banks are failing, . factories closing down and thousands of laboring men are out of employment. The pica'ic prepared for the : British Lion is now ready and he is even now tilling himself with American dainties. The very gold that was imported by England at a loss six months ago is now coming back to pay for wheat, stocks, bonds, etc., at bankrupt prices. Last week 20,000,000 bushels of wheat were taken for export at 58 cents —a price which would bankrupt every American wheat raiser. Yes it was a little game of “Bull” and “Bear,” but it'cost many a poor man his job. robbed many a farmer of his hard earned product of the farm, sent many a bank into liquidation, closed many a factory and caused disaster to stalk abroad over this fair land. Now it is very plain why England imported our gold at a loss. She was simply engineering a gigantic “corner” on the money market and has successfully carried it through, making millions out of it. Now. dear reader, can you see any reason in this operation why England loves a gold basis? Mr. Thomas Batte, editor of the Graphic, Texarkana, Arkansas, has found what he believes to be the best remedy in existence for the flux. His experience is well worth rentembering. He says: “Last summer I had a very severe attack of flux. I tried almost every known remedy, none giving relief. Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended to me. I purchased a bottle and received almost immediate relief. I continued to use the medicine and was entirely cured. I take pleasure in recommending this remedy to any person suffering "with such a disease, as in my opinion it is the best medicine in existence.” 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by F. B. Meyer, the druggist.

The difference we make in graveling or macadamizing Is based on our knowledge of where material can he bail and what it will cost to place the same upon the road. Our estimate is based on good material either of gravel or broken stone. If gravel is used the larger particles should be evenly laid in the bottom and the gravel should all bo free from dirt soil or quicksand. If macadam is used it should be so arranged that the larger broken stone shall bo In the bottom and tho smaller on the surface. If macadam ho covered with gravel the macadam should first bo placed on the surface and afterwards the gravel hauled thereon to the depth as indicated iu the specifications.
