TnE free silver seceders insist that
they are not influenced by local con
siderations, but the fact remains that
they all happen to live in states where
silver mining is a leading industry.
When Cleveland speaks of "occupy

A PROTECTIVE tariff and sound
money is the true republican motto for
189G, and with the experience of the
last four years before the people, it
goes without saying that it will win a
decisive victory.
Thk eastern democrats refuse to
give up the fight for a sound currency
platform at Chicago, and are buckling
on their armor for a vigorous fight.
The odds at the present, hewever, seem
to favor the silverites.
The term 16 to 1 properly translated
means 16 pies to 1 hungry politician
and when the silver boys get ready to
share the spoils at Chicago and the
pie-counter is seen to be too small for
the host, then look out for the
scramble which is to follow.

WHY doesn't 1'lattsmouth have a

Several political savants in mak
ing up sure McKinley states are in the
habit of classing Nebraska with the
soft money democrats. This is rank
nonsense. The time has long since
passed when Nebraska could be car

ver bait will not entice but few votes
from the life-lime allegiance of men
with the old party, which in thirty
years has done more for the prosperity
of the country than all other parties
have done in a full century.
Montana has no use for the silver

that tho tariff question surpasses all

A little currency catechism.
By a Sound Money Democrat.
Q. What is the whole body of cur
rency of the United States today ?
A." Paper, $475,000,000;silver, $610,
000,000; gold, $612,000,000.
Q. What is the existing mooey
standard of the country ?
A. Gold, by means of which all
the silver and all the paper are worth
100 cents on the dollar.
Q. What would be the effect if wo
would abandon tho existing gold
standard ?
A. All the gold would leave the
country in accordance with the never
questioned law that a superior money
will not remain in a country where an
inferior money is the standard.
Silverites r.dmit that gold is 16
times more valuable than silver. That
is what the "ratio of 16 to 1" means,
in truth, today gold is 32 times more
valuable than silver.
Q. What amount of money would
be thus withdrawn from the country
if the silver standard should be sub
stituted for the cold standard i
. $612,000,01)0, contracting the
currency to that amount, anu crip
pling the country accordingly.
Q. If the silver standard wore sub
stituted for the existing gold standard
what would bo tho effect on the $610,-
fliiO.OOO of silver now worth 100 cents
to the dollar ?
A. The entire quantity of silver
dollars would bo worth their weight
in silver per ounce, which varies
from wnfik to week liko the price of
wheat, and the immediate effect
would bo to reduce tho $610,000,000 to
$305,000,000, tho present value of silver
per ounce thus contracting the cur
rency of tho country to this additional
amount, making a total contraction of
$5)17,000,000.
Q. What would be the effect on tho
paper in our currency if we should
substitute the silver standard for the
existing gold standard '
A. The $475,000,000 of paper today
worth 100 cents to tho dollar on the
existing gold standard would at onco
decline to 50 cents in a dollar on the
silver standard, based on the price of
silver today, the immediate effect be
ing to reduce the value of paper now
in the currency to $237,000,000.
Q. By abandoning the existing gold
standard for tho silver standard, what
then would bo the first net result "t
A. The loss to the country of
$1,154,500,000. everv dollar worth 100
cents by reason of the existing gold
standard.
Q. What do you deduce from this?
A. That we need all tho money we
have and that we want every dollar to
bo worth 100 cents.
Q. IIow can we keep all the money
we have and keep every dollar worth
A. By preserving the existing gold
standard.
WHEN BOIES FELL DOWN.
The Illinois free coiners under the
lead of Altgeld are now maKing a
deadly attack on the record of your
uncle, Horace Boies of Iowa, says the
Lincoln Journal. It seems that at tho
lime Altgeld was fostering and en
couraging the Debs railroad strike
Grover ordered out the troops to put
down his insurrection. Unele Horace
slopped over in a speech somebody got
him to make at an opportune time. He
affirmed the good sense of tho pre si
dent in putting down the Chicago
rioters with a strong hand.
A man in training- for the presidency
torough a democratic nomination
must be very careful how he talks.
in fact it would be better fur him to
affect a stroke of dumb palsy when
ever an emergency is on hand und say
nothing at all.
Mr. Boies, however, says that if he
can only get tho convention to read
the whole of that speoch and see that
he fastened on Bill McKinley and the
republican party all the responsibility
of the strike and all tho misfortunes
that have overtaken the country under
democratic rule, they will be pleased
with it, notwithstanding the implied
insult to Debs and Altgeld and they
will vote for him all the same.
But it is a feaiful undertaking to
get that convention to read Uncle
Horace's old speech in full. Best
thing he can do is to make a new
one on the faoor of the coo vent-on,
acknowledge his error and to promise
if he is ever elected president that no
riots 6hall be interfered with by the
federal troops. Such a pledge ought
to satisfy tho most ferocious anarchist
in the convention.
BRYAN'S DINNER PAIL.
ine tariti tax on the poor man's
dinner pail isn't going to be a burning
issue in this campaign, as it was in
the last. Four years ago the profes
sional romancers of the democratic
party incited such an insurrection
concerning the oppressive tariff on
dinner pails that no self-respecting
laborer approached his pail at noon
wuuuui ueiug seizeu witn a lit ana a
a frenzy and an impulse to kick it and
send it galley-west and hellbentfor
election ana nil the air with roast
beef, fried chicken, pudding, pie and
cake. Dinner pails were demonetized
four years ago and have all gone out
of circulation. The crime of 1802
has made the dinner pail only a remi
ui sconce, rne.iax on it aocsn't cut
any figure now for laboring men have
little work to which to carry dinner
pails. When they do get a job a little
stale bread and ' some fried liver
wrapped up in an old untaxed news
paper constitute the depreciated din
ners which have driven pie and cake
out of circulation. The free coinage
of pudding for the laboring man will
be resumed this year.
Tub educational institution for
colored pupils founded at Tuskegee,

gifts nearly $60,000. Here is an in
stance of what can be accomplished by
capable and resolute leader in a
good cause. Ex.
The western friends of Major Mc
Kinley framed the money plank in the

INFORMATION and opinion.
The cooking lectures at tho Chau
tauqua were a great scheme, and were
attended by many ladies, who found
them interesting and instructive.
Much as science has done for many
thincs. however, we feel inclined to
doubt whether it has benefited cook-
ory. Mrs. MacMurphy is one of the
best cooks in the country, according
to the scientific views; she-prepares
everything after the rules laid down
by Hoyle and other authorities, and
has herself invented various apjetiz-
ing dishes. Yet we are forced to re
late a sad truth in this connection
When we first knew her husband
he was hale and hearty, and
able to throw a cow over
his shoulder. That was when Mrs.
Mac cooked as our mothers and grand
mothers used to. When she began to
cook scientifically, her husband 8
health became undermined, and it has
steadily become worse until today he
cannot lift a cat off the floor, and an
illustrated catalogue of his diseases
contains 140 paces. Orlanda Swain
informs us that Mr. McMurphy com
plains bitterly because of that science
which has made him a corpse before
his time. Walt Mason.
And soon the big steam whistles

When Her Comment In Europe Found Itt
Echo In America.
' 'I have known for some time thai
the world is small," complained a wom
an recently, "but I did suppose one
could make a comment in Europe that
would not echo in America. On tht
piazza of a littlo inn in the Swiss
mountains last sunfmer I chatted with
two ladies of a party we had encounter
ed at two or three places en route till
we felt as if we had a little acquaint
ance with them. When they discovered
wo were from Minneapolis, one of them
asked if we knew Mr. B. As he is a
very intimate friend of ours, we cor
dially assented and fell to discussing
his family. Incidentally I spoko of hi

that tho present and second Mrs. B. re

oddly before she said: 'Thoro was some

SUFFOCATFD BY THE SNAKE'S ODOR.
A Maine Man's Hazardous Encoonter With
a Virginia Mocrwin.
"When I was a youivg fellow," says
a now aged Maine mt.ii, "I went into
southern Virginia for a time. I had
lived in Maine and Massachusetts and
consequently had no fear of snakes. I
had formed a habit of picking up by the
tail such snakes as came across my path
and of giving them a quick snap to
break their necks. Soon after I went to
the south, in the road one day I saw a
small snake, a eouplo of feet long, per
haps, and of a yellowish color, wrig
gling across the path. Without think
ing of harm, I jumped for him, put my
foot on his neck, and, catching him by
the tail, swung him to give him a snap.
Some people were near by, and they
yelled to me like wild men to drop that
snake.
"I stopped a moment, while the smfce
wriggled, and then I snapped him in
due and ancient form. Mark the result.
In less than ten minues I became drow
sy and insensiblo and remained so for
several hours in spite of the efforts of
those who had warned me to rouse my
dormant senses. I did not know that
the snake bit me in any way and do
not now believe he did. The air had a
suffocating, sickening smell an odor
thrown off by the snake, I think, and
breathing that poisoned me.
The snake, I was told, was a moc
casin, one of the most venomous of tho
whole tribe of crawlers. Since that day
snapping snaxes nas anoraea me no
fan." Lewiston Journal.
Curine a Snake's Blindness.
' One of tho most poisonous snakes at
the London zoo, a king cobra, recently
became nearly blind. When it shed its
skin, it threw off every part except the
transparent plate which covers tho eye.
After each change of skin this plate re
mained uncast, and the successive lay
ers became opaque and projected over
tne eye in a horny boss. The keeper
used the snake habit of creeping through
any aperture which it can find in the
wall of its cage to rid itself of the
growth over the eye. He drew back the
iron shutter which separates ono com
partment from the other, leaving a nar
row spaco open. The cobra soon discov
ered tnis, and pushed its nose into the
crack. This was slightly widened, and
the snake squeezed through, rubbing off
one or the scales as it did so. It was
then induced to go back by the way it
had come, and after this had been re
peated once or twice it cleared the scale
from the other eye. Since then it has
cast its fikin completely and its eyes are
apparently none the worse for ita tem
porary blindnesa Snakes naturally drag
themselves through rourrh irrass and
holes to get rid of the old skin which
clmgs to them. London Public Opin

He will be apprehended later on, how

and a large family of children, some
of whom are grown and the erimo of
which he is charged is consequently
all the worse. His running away
from an investigation is pretty good
proof that ho has no defense to tho ser
