With the anthracite coal strika ended and the mercury ranging at from CO to 70 in the shade there is no danger of freezing just now. The American people still believe J that honesty is the best policy for a I cation as well as for an individual. Hence they have no use for Bryanisra. People can go to church tomorrow feeling perfectly assured that the country is safe, that Bryanism has been weighed in the balance and found wanting.

sent of the governed, but opposed to

the majority governing. The fact that it was possible for an employe of me leaumg oaun. o New York to systematically rob that institution of nearly $700,000 with out detection would seem to indicate a serious lack of supervision on the nart of its managers. Yet it is quite probable that the management of that bank was fully as emcient as that of most other leading business oncer ns. The truth is, every busi ness institution is largely at the mercy of its employes, no matter how eflicieut the management may be. The only perfect safeguard against robbery is honesty on the Dart of its employes Hence the . 1 danger to the business interests of the country from the teaching of loose financial and commercial morals. Let it not le forgotten that when . -WW . iV fle orating the salon at tne uonman house, New York, where Bryan sat down to a dinner given by Croker, that IJryan'f? picture was draped with the American and Filipino Hags. The Filipino flag was afterwards re moved, but not until it had told its story, and the fact of its presence there was cabled to the in surgents fighting against the stars and stripes. While Bryan was there under the benediction of his own portrait eating a $12 a plate dinner, not counting the wine bill, Roosevelt in Columbus, O., was speaking from a platform adorned with a picture of the ga lant Lawton who lost his life at the hands of those who were floating the flag that had been draped about Bryan's picture. There is no purer, cleaner Chris tian gentleman in this country than William McKinley. He is an ideal ideal mtriot. an ideal statesman and an ideal President. Should the American people exchange him for a political mountebank who advocates financial dishonesty, social hate and discord, and pays the high est tribute of praise to that monster nt ixilitinal. commercial and social corruption, Tammany Hall, an organ ization that has been convicted of the most gigantic robbery that ever shocked the civilized world, whose late leader was sent in stripes to a felon's cell and whose present leader would be there if he had his just deserts? HOME SUBJECTS. Two men. one vountr and the Other considerably younger, sat at a point in plain sight or the street, ana talked. As they did so, a young woman-went by. After she h?d passed the younger man said: "Yonder goes a girl who can smoke more cigarettes than any boy in town." "Is that so!" said the other. "Isn't it remarkable that girls do . i mt - a a i not find out one tning: inai me very reason that will bring tVhe boys t.- n Ihmii Inrc n. 'time' such asi rvoiiug men of the world re the ones that will, when the time shall come. drive those same young fellows else where to seek a wife: It looks as if the girls would 'get on' after awhile and cultivate only their purely womanly qualities. But they don't seem to. ' "That's the truth, every word o! it," said the vounger man. "But they don't seem to get on at all. i Some of them act that way to keep the fellows about, and others simply because it suits them to act so." "Do you know," said a prominent local man who is not jartieularly active in politics and a very mild partisan, "that when the votes are counted next Tuesday week and Tuesday night it will be found that the land has slid in large chunks.'. Do you know that even here in Wayne county some loose earth will have slipped toward the ravine? Do you know that hundreds upon hundreds of Democrats who are keeping it under their hats are going to vote for Mekinlev and Iiosevelt because they are satisfied with preseut eonoitions ana do not want a cnanger Do you know that this number is growing day by da v? Do you know all these things? If you don't you're behind the times an will be fooled with the rest next Tuesday night week or Wednesday morning." Every thoughtful aud observant person is noting the difference in the methods of campaigning and the change of character of the political work done in the present campaign from that done hitherto. This has not been a shouting campaign, and the ac tions of the people under ordinary circumstances would be justly regarded as evidence of apathy. Hut it has not been apathy. While the people have had almost no street corner arguments, and while they have jawed each other very, very little, they have at no time missed anything that promised more information. There is a sort of euthusiasm that is not of the mouth, and that kind has r.n riot this year. The enthusiasm that will make whole families leave their homes and sit while two or three speakers discuss the issues; the kind that will induce a man to spend ins time and money and energy to get up the finest display ever seen for the finest industrial parade ever seen, is the real thing. Any one can yell, whether the noise emanate from enthusiasm or merely from the desire to vacate the lungs: a man must needs have little brain to mase lots of noise: but he who does things noiselessly, yet thoroughly and energetically, gives evidence of thought ol the variety

HOT A CENUINE ISSUE

Secretary Gage ExpOSeS the Pretenss cf Imperialism. IT IS ONLY A WOODEN HORSE Concealed In Which the Bryanites - Hope to Enter the City. Values will Not Respond to the BrjM Rea soning A Convincing Presentation, ot the Fallacy of tha to 1 Argument Sec retary of tne Treasury Gage Talks to Toung Men On tha Real issue Which Most Vitally Concerns the Smerican People. Following Is the text of an address delivered by the Hon. Lyman J. Gage, secretary of the treasury, to the Young Kepul.lie-an Hub of Brooklyn, whose Jo-minute talk m.on the question of oiieuiiiK the mints of the nation for the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 1 to 1 Is a remarkably concise statement of the meaning and possibilities of such a movement. This LYMAN address coming from Secretary Caw nr.-K.-iits the issue in au authoritative maimer, as convincing as it is intelll rilile to auy reader. Secretary Cage said: Geuteiemen of the Youuk Republican Club It is my iurjose to speak to you for 20 minutes. My subject may lie stated after this fashion: What Is the iuter est of the wage-earner and stipemliar ies of every class iu the iroiositiou to oien the mints for the free and un limited coinage of silver at the ratio of 10 to 1? It Is the declared puriose tlm Ih-iiiocratic- nartv. so called, to do that thiug. If done, it will have n i.ii.immiis effect for weal or woe upon the welfare of every man, worn an and child In the United States. No miKtlin Is of deeoer moment than this question, and you cannot act. mtel llgently on It unless you understaud it Do you reallly understand it thought until lately that by this time the merits or demerits ot that propusl tion must be understood by c-ver.v out but I know better now. A srcmlemau a business man of considerable mi 1 licence only a week since, called ou a member ot congress and asked him this question: "What does b to mean? I am ignorant aad I want to know." Now. let me ask that (mesdon right here and now. What Is 10 to 1 What does the term niMn? 1 have little granddaughter 11 jcars old. She Visited me a few wefks ago. and while iiiiiik it is this war; ti worth a I tout 32 times as much as silver, but the Democrats want to pass a law to make 1! ounces of sil.-er worth the a me as one ounce of geld. I don't know if that is right though. " "Well, my child." I said, "you have It right down fine, and I won t disturb your mind by further explanation." hut Is lu to 1? But we grown up folks can profitably enlarge the jxdnt a Tttle here. What is 1; to 1? It is the ratio which Congress fixed many yeirs ago letweeu gold and silver .vaen coined at the mint that is to say, 'i Is a relation. In weight of metal, rtwen silver dollars and gold dollars. I'uovt th l.tw, a given quantity of gold was stamfed a dollar, and lt times that weight in stiver was stamed a dollar. You perceive It Is a relation of wvight, not a relation of value. You will ask. then, why w s the weight ratio fixed at H" to 1? The answer Is obvious and plain. It was tecatise that relation ot weight recogniztnl in the coins n.iiitel the- then commercial value of the tw- inetals in the markets of the world. Ilecause the commercial value of gold w.is jt times, or thereabout, greater than sil ver, congress recog'ii..ed the fact and established the coins ia tne same tntio ' Weight. Make no misttke -n this lMint. The mint mtlj never cstablishtnl the value of eUh r gold or tdler, nor did it establish the relative Taliie of one to the othr. The commercial exchanges of the world fix the value of all things, hicludiii rohl and silver. The only way ou eurtn to determine the value of gold, either as coin or bullion, is to find out what it will bring in flour, or ciothiig, or la bor, or other things. The value of gold is measured by the quantity of things for wbfch it will exchange. Th t-a.Te is exactly true as to silvr. Xow, fjold and silver are no more nlawri to each other in any fixed rrio than are wheat and e-orn. Wheat aud ivrn are ft"Hl for food, and thi-re "s a sort ef I latton between the to !n vuliie. tut it Is a fluctuating, not a ds.d. relation. The same is true of goll and silver. They are both metal tis-d as money, but their re lation to each otn -r Iu exchangeable value ha, ns history proves, been a variub!?. not a tied, relation. The Mint an t h Ileal liatio. Xow, when our eo'uage liws were passed in and imendNl in 2SS4. 15, lo1 r It! ounces of s;lvT had about the' same :wffr to purchase things in the world as had one ounce of gold, anil for tlm reason, and that reason solclv, the mint ratio, a ratio of weight, wis e-stablk-he.l In a way that was -,su;.seel to coryspoud to their eommereial values -a their respective ptwcrs to bty thirgo. I canneit stop to ivc-ire "aistfry. ut3cient te say tliat never iu nr history did Itoth metals come to the mmt for coinage In any aipreeiabl voluni; at the same pe-riod of ttuie.

DIAMOND Drco chemical Co.. 82-84-86 West Broadway. N. Y. l04ls one ounce of gold would ext!4,ng for alxut 1 ounces of silver. For some years past one ounce of gold has exchanged for 3- or 34 ounces of si! ver. It will now exchange in the sauit ratio, and there is no reason to doubt that it will so continue to exchange for au indefinite time. These are facta. I snail not sfoti to discuss how this came atoui. iie'tiier n was me ui-l.".-d "crime of ot. or whethe r it was because silver has liecome relatively more plentiful than gold, or In-cause the desires of men have changed whatever theory you may adopt, the tact remains unchanged, viz, one ounce of gold is equal in exchangeable power to 3- ounces of silver. Yet it is iu full view of thse facts that a iMtlitHroartv. er. rather, a combination of at least three olitical parties, propone. if it gets control of the government. to reopen the mints to the free coinage' of silver at the old ratio of 1 to 1 Whv? Whv? If it was desirable to ojk'ii the mints for the free' coinage of silver, whv not do as our fathers did. to wit, make the ratio as near as is sible to the commercial-value ratio? Thev say it was a crime to close the mints to free coinage of silver in 173. I denv it: but if it were true, would it cure that crime to commit an egregi ous folly in liHtO? I )5in i N'ra t ie Sfph ist ioa t ions. The Democratic champion still avers that on this question the party stands where it did in lS'.K'i. He does not talk alHiut it so much, but when he eloe-s talk altout if. lie uses the sam misleading phrases as of old. For instance, he has rein-atedly said: "The Republican administration uuder Mc Kinley is coining silver every day n the month and every month iu the year at the ratio of If. to 1. If that is not the correct ratio, why do they do itr Mr. Itryan knows why. but he con ceals the reason and allows his hearers to draw erroneous conclusions. The statement, so far as it gws. is true. In 1S7M a measure passed congress di reefing the secretary of the treasury to buy a.otwi.ooo ounce's permonth and coin into "standard dollars. Bqt mark this: The coinage was to lie for le for nt nK int feif n. Iii the government ahrtjon governme count, and not ou private account the benetit of holders of bullion 18!N the Sherman law was pass, two minion ounces a inoutii. I hat a also declared it to1 Ih the policy of tl.l government to maintain these dollar! on a parity with gold. In 1893 the pur chasiug clause of'-the Sherman lav was repealed. Since that time th mints have in truth lieen engaged in coining up the purchased bullion. But mark this: Through the law and by the ofteration of the treasury, the dol lars have Ix-en kept equal to gold. They are paid out only by the government, and against the receipt by the government of an equal amount In gold, or in service' rendered, or goods bought. W ith the government's guar antee of parity, and the quantity 11m ited. it is manifestly an indifferent circumstance whether the ratio were 10 to 1, 20 to 1, or 5 to 1. And yet Mr, iiryan deftly insinuates that this prac ttce justifies free coinage for every body at that ratio without any guaran tee of equality with gold from any Douy. iH't ma tell you a story. It Illustrates this matter and makes it more clear. Four or five years ago I lis tened to a conversation between a certain judge and a banker. The judge saia: 1 constantly hear that our sil ver dollar is worth only GO cents, and yet you baukers and all dealers are glad to take them for a dollar each How is that? Are they really worth a dollar, or do you all give 40 cents more for each of them than they are worth My question is an honest one: I want to Know. i he banker replied: "Well, I win answer you by the kindergarten method." He held up a nickel and asked the judge. "What is that? An swer: A nickel 5 cents." "What i the metal in the coin worth?" Judge tion t know. liauker: "I will tell yon. It is worth nlnnit six-tenths of 1 cent. .Now. with so small value in ltse'f. how does it come to be worth a cents?" Judge: "Why, the govern menr having issued It for 5 cents, and having received i cents for it. will re deem it for ." cents in "gold, won't it? liankert "Yes. you have it exactlv Y'ou have deserilwd what Is perfectly analogous to the truth regarding the surer rtoi.ar. The government buv the silver at the market price, now about e-,.ns. stamps a certain quantity of it a dollar, gets a dollar for it when it pays one out and redeems it when presented for redemption. Judge: "Does the government redeem It with a oId dollar?" Ranker: Xo: but it des su'ostantially the same thing. It receives it as the equivalent of a gold dollar In tne payment of customs dm-s, Keing as emcient as gold for that puriose. It is now the equal of gold for all purposes. At the sai- tiniu it doe's this, it jwys gold to every one that wants it -and has a claim or demand on the treasury. Thus the parity is maintained." I have been bligeel to sny so much by way of explanation or prvfae-e to my main question. The Ileal Interest of Wage-Banters. now would the interest of wageearners and salary paid people be af-fecte-el if the IHmK-ratic liryan propo sition should be realisced? In the year IS I had a conversation with one of the brightest and most capable business men of the west.

WelKW. Box 160. Mechanic Falls, Maine. NERVOUS PROSTRATION. For two years I suffered from nervous prostration, the result of female weakness. I had leucorrhoca very badly, and at time of menstruation wouid be obliged to go to beti. Also suffered with headaches, pain across back, and in lower part of abdomen. I was so discouraged. I had read of Lydia E. Mnkham'a Corarsund, and concluded to give it a trial, wrote to Mrs. Pinkham, and received a very nice letter in return. I began at once the use of her Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier, and am now feeling splendid. 1 have no more pain at monthly periods, can do my own work, and have gained ten pounds. I would not be without your Vegetable Compound. It is a splendid medicine. I am very thankful for what ithas done for me. Mas. J. W. J., 76 Carolina Ave., Jamaica Plain, Mass. t t ,i; v.
