For this spoiler ot the home ? Will you yield it your opinion ? Will you follow as one bouarht? And become the smiling minion Of a purely selfish thought? Will you turn from those who love you 1 Give your heart to those who hate ? Those who only downward shove you ? When you've met with adverse fate 1 Will you lend your help unheeding What the good and wise have said ? Be a party to the bleeding. Of a nations thorn crowned head ? Ah, I fain would sound a warning. Fain would lead you back to light: So I plead with you this morning- Join the people in their fight. Free them from the rich man's power, Free them from the golden yoke, And thus leave a princely dower To the poor and toiling folk. Back to home and friends then speed you, Join Free Silver mighty throng, Into glorious days we'll lead you. Where no man shall suffer wrongr —A Democrat. The Money Controversy. As early as 1846, Dr. Loetbeer, a per sistent and enthusiastic Hollander, commenced the discussion, and per suaded the numerous states of Europe, with as many kinds of money, denom inations, and diversities of values, to unite in a universal money, to meet the demands of trade and travel be tween the States, and especially to accommodate the wealthy foreign tourists in their expenditure of vast sums of money annually. Various conferences were held; the suggestions approved and enthusiasm excited. The difficulty of agreeing on a common standard, subdivisions and designa tions, delayed and embarrassed them. Gold was agreed on as the most con venient to the traveler. But what existing system shall be adopted, and all others conform to it; or, to relieve from the jealousies, shall an entirely new money nomenclature be adopted and all the moneys of the Kingdoms and Princedoms be recoined to con form. Here was presented what has proved an insuperable barrier. The difficulties increased as the practical working was more fully examined, in relation to the ancient policies and settlements of the ages. Enthusiasm cooled, and in the conference of 1878 leading powers deprecated the per secution and attempted abandonment of silver, as a great mistake. The the ory then advanced by Herr Herzoge and others was, to divide the nations in two classes, the advanced to adopt the gold basis, and the less cultivated, the silver standard; recognizing the necessity of both moneys to serve the purposes of trade. At Brussels, the problem was not solved. The dissen sions in Europe, and the ineffectual effort of the greater powers, excited a degree of uncertainty, stagnation and suspense, which has been~ early felt by the toiling populations,and aroused a feeling of discontent which bodes no peace and stability to crowns and monarchies. Superadded, there are stored very many millions of wealth, the collections of ages, in silver, which it were folly and madness to destroy for a theory, in which is little more than a sentiment. The unification of the money of the German Empire, tends to consolidation. A like process among the other States will tend to further combinations,endangering the present balence of powers. * Misled by the representations, at the conference of 1867 at Paris, by 001. Ruggles, that the people of the United States were heartily favorable to the gold basis, gave rise to the foreign thought that the act of 1873 would establish that basis in America, and help to pull it through Europe. The attempt to foist the gold theory of Europe with its contraction and many disturbing fea tures on the United States, is the Pandoras Box of our financial ills, and political party convulsions. Europe is halting between two opinions, whether to retrace her steps or advance. The U. S. with a like money in all the States, has not the same reasons for desiring a change from the two metals as the family of nations of Europe. Our policy is Washingtonian; entang ling alliances with none, why quit our own to stand on foreign ground. A. K. * r» » Toe Origin of the Weeping Willow in the United States. A German paper in the West is our authority for the statement that all the weeping willows in this country came from a tree planted in Abingdon, Va., by John Parker Eustis, a stepson of Washington. Young Eustis was attached to Gen. Washington's staff during the years 1775 and 1776. By order of the commander, Eustis went several times to the headquarters of the English general, and on one of these occasions became acquainted with a young English officer, who gave the American officer a branch of a weeping willow, gathered from a tree upon Pope's Villa near Twickenham, England, and John Parker Eustis planted the branch before his house in Abingdon, Va. a> ra a It has been held that consumption is hereditary, and tbe fact that one per son of a family had died with consunip tion was considered a sure sign that others of that family could not escape it. This is partly true and partly un true. A man with weak lungs is like ly to transmit that weakness to his children. But there is no reason in the world why the weakness should be al lowpd to develop. Keep the lungs full of rich, red, wholesome blood, and the weakness will disappear. Decaying tissues will be shown afl\ and new ma ti rial will be added until the lungs are well and perfectly strong again. This is the thing that Dr Pierces Golden Medical Discovery does. This is what makes it cure 98 per cent, of all cases of consumption where it is taken ac cording to directions. It searches out disease germs wherever they may be in the body and forces shem out of the system. It supplies the blood with rich, life giving properties. It makes the appetite good, digestion perfect. Send 21 cents in one cent stamps to World's Dispensary Medical Associa tion, Buffalo, SF.

Efiuess, Now. lat a statesman, great or laid on tbe silvei question : ED BOTH GOLD AND t * » not be difficult to show nations where both have eorganized, the most wide ly diffused, the steadiest anti most con tinuous prosperity has been enjoyed— that true form of prosperity which reaches all classes, but which begins with the day laborer, whose toil lays the foundation of the whole super structure of wealth. "THE EXCLUSIVELY GOLD NA TION LIKE ENGLAND MAY SHOW THE MOST MASSIVE FORTUNES IN THE RULING CLASSES, BUT IT SHOWS ALSO THE MOST HELP LESS AND IHOPELESS POVERTY IN THE HUMBLER WALKS OF LIFE. "The gold and silver nation, like France, can exhibit no such individual fortunes as abound in England, but it has a peasantry that, with their silver savings, can pay a war indemnity that would have beggared the gold bankers of London and to which the peasantry of England could not have contributed a pound sterling in gold or a single shilling in silver. "The two metals have existed side by side in harmonious, honorable com panionship as money ever since intel ligent trade was known among men. It is well nigh forty centuries since 'Abraham weighed to Ephron the sil ver which he had named in the audi ence of the sons of Heth—4oo shekels of silver —currency money with the merchant.' Since that time nations have risen and fallen, races disappear ed; dialects and languages have been forgotten, arts have been lost, treas ures have perished, continents have been discovered, islands have been sunk in the sea, and through all these ages and through all these changes sil ver and gold have reigned supreme as the representatives of value, as the media of exchange. The dethronement of each has been attempted in turn, and sometimes the dethronement of both, but always in vain." And now we will allow you to ask a few questions: Who said that ? No. Morgan 1 No. • Well, then, who did? Why, James G. Blame, when he was a member of the United States Senate; and every Republican in the land agreed with him then; and, at that time, and until a much late date, all the Republican statesmen talked in that same way; but now they are all, with a few honorable exceptions, talk ing in favor of the gold standard, that accursed doctrine which, in consum mation, would be more disastrous, as John G. Carlisle hag declared, than war, pestilence and famine ! Pneumatic Tires for Vehicles. In the last number of Engineering News the use of pneumatic tires on car riage wheels in Paris is discussed, and it is shown that the force required to draw a carriage so equipped is much less than when an iron tire is used. Pneumatic rubber tires were applied to wheels by R. V,'. Thomson, an Eng lish civil engineer, in 1846, with good results, but the device lapsed. Now, in Paris, such tires are in common use on cab wheels. The economy of their use is about 38 per cent on good roads and 68 per cent ou newly broken stone. The result is much the same, whether the road be made muddy or covered with snow. The solid rubber tire is better than tbe iron tire, but the in flated tire is the best. Besides diminish ing the power required for traction the pneumatic tire is without noise and frees the rider from jar and minor jolts. Both the bicycle wheels with wire spokes and the wheel with wooden spokes is used in Paris. The re sult is best when ihe air pressure in the tire is about 6.5 pounds. A Lucky Chance for the Sick. Every ailing and -suffering person who is wise will instantly accept this generous offer. Coming from the very highest authority, as it does, gives it the greatest weight, and people know when they see a good thing like this. Everybody knows of Dr. Greene, the most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, of 35 West 14th St, New York City. His successful system of treating patients through letter correspondence is at tracting great attention. All you have got to do is this Write him a letter about your complaint, tell him how you feel, and he will answer it, giving a thorough explanation of your case and telling the surest way to get well. He gives most careful and explicit attention to every letter, and explains your case as comprehensively, that you understand immediately exactly what ails you, and just what to do for your self. And for all this he makes no charge. He is the discoverer of that remarkable medicine, Dr. Greene's Ner vura blood and ne/ve remedy. This Bplendid offer is being taken advantage of by thousands, and they are getting well by his wonderfully successful treatment. The very best thing you can do, reader, is to write the Doctor immediately; it wiil cost you nothing, and it will surely be the means of mak ing you well and strong. Hon't delay I until it is too late, but write now. The Populist State Central Commit ! tee hns issued an address announcing that the populists and democrats have agreed upon fusion on the electoral ticket, in which the populists are to have three and the democrats five votes. Miss Georgia Richards, who occupies the position of County Clerk in Arapa hoe county, Colorado, receives a salary of f 5.000 a year, the largest paid to any woman official in the West. _. ♦ ♦—• Daniel Campbell and wife, of Walton county, Fla., are said to be respective ly 117 and 112 years old. ELast Hope, Deception. Kinley's hope now consists in again deceiving the wage-earner by specious promises of advantages from increased factory and public work. They are promised increased wages and payment in "the best money"— gold. No imposture is supposed too great for popular credulity. The pro tracted and terrible conflict through which laborers, with their families, on public works have passed, have been graven on their minds, and their hor rors reproduced by mention of the names which provoked them. Flatter ing promises and hopes had lured them heretofore. They realized excessive charges at the company stores at which they were required to deal. Lower wages than promised, fixed by company combinations; goad ed to strikes to secure justice and re | dress, but were met by the cold steel of the military, invoked by the com pany to compel to submission; deadly conflicts greeted them and their fami lies, instead of "two dollars a day and i roast beef." The promise now is in creased wages and payment in "the best money." The laboring man knows quite well that with half the money denied coinage, that it will be impos sible to redeem the promises. That j they are only made to deceive the toil er to get his vote and place tbe com bines and trusts in positions to compel submission. Labor should not indulge in hostility against capital, but it should be careful to put in power those who will defend the rights of the indi vidual citizen, and resist the arbitrary and unjust incroachments of combined capital. All the humble laborer asks is equality of rights, and this he must have under our constitution and laws. At the polls he can assert his rights and make his influence felt by sup porting the ticket headed by Bryan, the friend of the plain people; stand ing for equal rights and justice to all. The indebtedness of the country will necessitate a high enough tariff to protect all kinds of labor to any ree Ible extent. Watch. Chairman Jones' Estimate, nator Jones of the Democratic onal Committee, characterizes the uate of the probable electoral vote ;iven out by Senator Quay as a antic bluff." The chairman point ut that of all the States classed by itor Quay as doubtful, only Ten ee and Virginia,have not effected pie fusion of democrats, populists silver republicans. The Senator stated that of the States classed ■IcKinley there was complete fu sion of the siver forces in the follow ing: Illinois, Indiana, lowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota,' West Virginia and Wisconsin. In thirty-two States altogether com plete fusion had been effected of all the forces opposed to the gold stand ard. Chairman Jones gave ont the following as his estimate showing the votes of the respective candidates in the electoral college: McKinley—Connecticut 6, Maine 6, Kachusettß 15, New Hampshire 4, Jersey 10, Pennsylvaia 32, Rhode d 4, Vermont 4.

Senator Jones adds that thousands of democrats in Connecticut and New Jersey had informed him that their States would cast their votes for Bry an, while the democrats of lowa look upon that State as safe for Bryan for a large majority. To Attempt to Cure catarrh by the use of so-called blood remedies means the expenditure of many dollars and derangement of the stomach. That catarrh is not caused by blood troubles is self-evident when yon reflect that attacks are always due to sudden climatic changes or exposure to cold, and occur most frequently dur ing the winter and spring, though the blood is as pure then as in summer or fall. A remedy which quickly relieves and by thorough treatment cures the catarrhal attacks has been found in Ely's Cream Balm. + m • - ' ■"" ■■■-»■■ Mr. Charles Jones, who lived in the lower part of Spottsylvania county, was attacked by a vicious bull Wed nesday and so badly injured that he died the next day. says an eminent English doctor, "will carry enough poison to infect a house hold." In summer-time, more espec ially, disease germs fill the air, multi tudes are infected, fall ill, die ; multi tudes escape. These messengers of mischief do not exist for millions. Why not ? Because they are healthy and strong —protected as a crocodile is against gun shot. It is the weak, the wasted, the thin-blooded who fall; those who have no resistive power so that a sudden cough or cold develops into graver disease. We hear of catching disease! Why not catch health ? We can do it by always maintaining our healthy weight. of Cod-liver Oil, is condensed nourish ment; food for the building up of the system to resist the attacks of disease. It should be taken in reasonable doses all summer long by all those whose weight is below the standard of health. If you are losing ground, try a bottle sumption is hereditary, and the fact that one per. son of a family had <& died with consump "*«*S tion was considered a sure sign that JK*!"! others of that family if A'> could not escape it This is partly true — and partly untrue. A man with weak lungs is likely to transmit that weakness to his children. But there is no reason in the world why the weakness should be allowed to develop. There is no reason why the lungs should remain weak. Weak lungs predispose a. child to consumption. They provide a place for germs to settle. That is all that is necessary. Once let the germs of disease gain a foot-hold, and they in crease with a deadly rapidity. Pretty soon the blood is full of them, and so loses in healthfulness and its strength-"giving quali ties. If the weakness is in some other organ, the disease will show itself in that organ. The germs will get into the blood, just the same, and the body will begin to lose strength. We speak particularly of consumption because it is most common— because it causes more than one-sixth of all deaths in the world. If there is a weak and crumbly spot in the foundation of a house, the owner clears out the decaying material, supplants it with new, strong stuff. That's all there is to do. That'" 11 that's necessary. That is exactly the thing to do with the lungs. Keep them full of rich, red, whole some blood, and the weakness will disap pear. Decaying tissues will be thrown off, |nd new material will be added until the lungs are well and perfectly strong again. This is the thing that Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery does. This is what makes it cure 98 per centj*>f all cases of consumption where it is taken according to directions. It searches out disease germs wherever they may be in the body. It ex terminates them completely and forces them out of the system. It supplies the blood with rich, life-giving properties. It makes the appetite good, digestion perfect It supplies the needed nutriment to all the tissues and makes sound, healthy flesh.
