LAW WILL. BE STKONti 1 OK GOLD
The interview with Mr. II. II
llanna, chairman of tho Indianapoli.-
monetary convention, expressing ap
proval of the plans for currency legis
lation already agreed upon by the
rfaucus committee of the house and the
linance committee of the senate, fur
nishes gratifying assurance that the
currency bill that will be presented to
the fifty-sixth congress will unquali
fiedly recognize gold as the fixed
monetary standard of the country.says
the Chicago Times-Herald. Having
been in consultation with the members
of the seoate linanco committee
their recent meeting at Narrapansett
Pier, Mr. Ilanoa is in a position to
speak authoritati vely regarding the
prospects for financial legislation
That he was invited to th3 councils of
the committee will doubtless surprise
the party trimmers, who have always
opposed the scheme of currency re
form proposed by the Indianapo'.is
monetary convention. But the po
litical trimmers on the currency ques
tion have had fheir dav. The time
for evasion and equivocation is pTst
The gold standard party must take
counsel of such men as Mr. Hanna,
who stands for honest currency reform
and who represents the intelligent
business interests of this country.
The party in power has been pre
vented by a silver majority in the sen
ate from redeeming its promises made
at St. Louis, to give the gold standard
"the validity and vitality of law."
With a sound money majority in both
houses of tho fifty-fcixth congre3 there
is every reason to expect the enact
ment of a law "consist irt in abroad
and courageous way with the pledge
offered the people in tho money plank
of the St. Louis platform."
I'lHLII'l'INKS AND TIIK KKI'l' 1JLICANS
Senator Burrows of Michigan, who
is an anti-expansionist,says that if tho
end of tho Philippine war is not in
sight next year "tho situation will bo
to tho disadvantage of the republican
party." There l n very strong prob
ability that tho war will b; ended bo
foro tho national conventions, oarly
nozt summer, moot
Tbo increaso
under way, however, when tho next
national convention moot this condi
tion would not necessarily injure the
republicans. It would eimply provoko
an inquiry as to who was responsible
for the war in the first place, and that
would exonerate tho republican party.
Tho men who wanted tho treaty de
feated, and who voted against it when
it cimo up in tho senate aro among
the person who are responsible for
the war. All of those except an in
significant fraction are democrats. A
large ehare of the responsibility for
the war also belongs to the men who
opposed the bill for the creation of an
army of 100,000 men. These, too, were
almost all democrats.
Here are some facts which willcome
out in a very impressive way next sum
mer if tho war in the Philippines
should bo still in progress at that time.
These facts will be destructive to the
democratic party. Many men were
declaiming from tho beginning of the
war against all purpose to obtain any
territory from Spain. These men
would have given up even Porto Kico.
They would give it up now, notwith
standing its cession by the treaty, if
they could bring this about. All
these persons aro democrats. The
Bryans, Gormans, Vests, Cockrelle,
Stones and the rest of the men who
which is being made in the army
points in that direction. The trouble
heretofore has been that Otis did not
have enough men to garrison the
towns which were captured. This
drawback will not exist when tho cam
paign next fall opens, says the Globe
Democrat. Even if the war should chance to bo
havo been howling against expansion
and all of those who wero in congress
voted against all measures calculated
to strengthen the hands of the govern
ment in the war are the persons who
responsible for the conflict, and they,
with a few trifling exceptions, are
democrats. It is reasonably certain
that American sovereignty will be ac
knowledged throughout the whole of

There can be ne ffood reason offered why Pla Us
ui out h should not hold a Street Fair this fall. Other
towns, not so lare as Plattsmotith, have conducted such
enterprises with great success. It is an entirely new
idea for this part of the state and this fact would insure
larjc crowds. The agricultural exhibits, with the mam
moth crops that are now growing", could be the finest in
the histor3r of Cass county.
A number ot merchants of the city have expressed
their willingness to contribute from S50 to $100 toward
the enterprise and if all of them would take hold of the
project, it would be an easy matter to' raise Si, 000 or
SI, 200, which would be an ample sum to provide suitable
amusements, musi,c, etc. It would be a lasting" adver
tisement for the citT and even if the merchants did not
g-et their money back at the time it would only be a
short time until they would.
Hastings and Lincoln are the only cities in the state
which at present have such plans on foot. The former
city raised SI, 400 in a half day. Is there any reason
why Plattsmouth cannot do as well ?
By securing" reduced railroad rates, larg"e crowds
could be attracted from every town in the county and
also from neighboring- towns in Mills county, la.
Now is the time to act.

INFORMATION ANU OPINION.
The Mutual Life Insurance company
of New York has instituted proceed
ings against Thomas Chase and wife
of Milligan, Tenn., in which it alleges
that Chase, who is supposed to have
died In February, is not dead, and that
$20,000 collected by the supposed
widow was fraudulently paid. The
bill enjoins four banks, in which the
money is deposited, from paying it to
Mrs. Chase's order. An order has
also been secured al owing the grave
in which Chuso is supposed to have
been buried to be searched.
Throe hundred years ago, in Eng
land, it was customary to add beer to
mortar to produce the required con
sistency. It was asserted that the beer
rendered the mortar more durable
than if it were made with water. It
is certain that the workmen oftej
tasted the beer, perhaps to convince
themselves that it was of the proper
strength and flavor.
The men-of-war of the Romans had
a crew of about 225 men, of which 174

There are certain languages which.
although they are still spoken and
written, are to all intents and pur
poses dead. For instance, Icelandic is
practically identical with the - dead
Norso language, out of which the
Scandinavian tongues have grown.
Provencal, the ancient language
of I 'rnirl n r1 A. nnrl Ihn niinni'h in whieh
tho Troubadours sang, has now sunk I
to tho level of a patois.although a cor-
u
1 tain French literary nchool is making
efforts to revive it as a literary lan
guage. Hebrew, tigain, though e till
spoken, is to all intents and purposes
dead in tho sense that Greek and Latin
aie. Cornish, Manx and the old mys
terious Romany tongue aro also exam
ples which bhould bo mentioned in
this connection.
An offer of ship brokers to buy the
cruiser Reina Mercedes and other
Spanish vessels captured in the late
war has aroused a suspicion that Spain
is trying to buy the vessels back. The
navy department will Bell none of the
vessels. The Mercedes is not worth
repairing and will bo kept moroly as a
relic.
A well-known curio expert states
that there are factories in Europo for
the manufacture of all kinds of works
of art that are likely to attract the
collector. Mode;n articles of china
are stamped, witn the old marks so
cleverly that even experts have been
deceived, says tho Pottery Gazette.
Arms and armor are troatod with

The eagle, as an emblem of author
ity, is so old that it would be impos
sible to clearly trace its origin. It is
found upon tho most ancient sculptures
that have yet been discovered, and
was no doubt one of the very oldest of
the totems, or tribe signs. The early
Persian empire appears to be the first
which adopted it aa an imperial em
blem. Among the Greeks the eaglo
was the emblem of Jove. The Romans
also adopted the eagle as their stand
ard, and so it became the token of
Roman dominion. When Constantino
became emperor he adopted tho
double headed eagle as the insignia of
his authority over east and west.

That a swan will fight fiercely was
shown by an exciting struggle be
tween a swan and a p. irk constable on
the upper lake at Waterlow Park, Eng
land. Some India rubber balls had
rolled into tho water, and to get them
the constable paddled out in a punt
This drew the notice of the male swan,
which deserted bis consort and the
brood of cygnet, and went for the con
stable with great fury. Once or twice
he almost upset the punt by causing
the constable to overbalance it in ear
ing his legs from the bird's beak. It
was only with difficulty and risk that
the balls wero recovered. The swan
then followed the punt to the bank,
making vicious darts at the constable.

about to proceod to the United States

General Jiminez admits that he has

considers that there is no need
promoting expeditions to land in San
Domingo, as there already aro 1,000
men waiting for him, a force which
he deems quito sufficient for his pur
poses.
Re.ferring to the future relations of
San Domingo with the United States
he exprossed a desire to be on friendly
terms with Washington and said he
could count on American sympathy,
Gomez, he referred to as "esteemed
by all classes of Dominicans, but not
sought for as president."
Tho people of San Domingo, he de
clarod, are impetuous and are urging
him to come to them at once; but for a
time he prefers delay, "as each day is
worth a battle won."
GOATS ARE SOLD AS MUTTON
TliouHHnclx of Aukoi-uh Are Placed L'pou
Markets of Chicago.
Chicago, Aug. 4. The Daily News
6ays: Thousands of goats are brought
slaughtered an J placed upon the mar
kets of Chicago and sold as mutton by
some packers at the stockyards. This
traffic is carried on most extensively
during the winter and early spring up
to and including the month of April
The goats and kids are of the Angora
kind and come from the northwest
while a few are shipped in from the
south. The latter are of the common
goat species and do not find as ready a
sale as the Angoras.
Besides being very palatable as a
food, the Angora goat and kid are
U6ed for other purposes. The skins of
the goats are used for making floor
mats and robes for babies, while the
skin of the kid is used in trimming
furs.
Dr. W. S. Devoo of tho Bureau of
Animal Industry, when asked today in
regard to goats being sold for mutton
said: "They certainly aro quite free
from disease, are fat and make ex
cellent eating. Of course the very
common 'billy' goat would have a ten
dency to be strong and have a bad
odor. There is no law to prevent them
being sold and when we find them in
tho packing houses they are inspected
the same as any other carcass."
The records of the yards show that
some weeks as high as 8,000 goats have
been received.
WASHINGTON', Aug. 4. Referring
to the reports that goat meat is being
sold in soma of the western cities as
mutton. Dr. Salmon, chief of the
Bureau of Animal Industry, said today
that the law provided only for the in
spection of cattle, sheep and hogs and
that nothing short of congressional ac
tion would remedy the defect. Dr.
Salmon said, however, that he did not
anticipate much danger from the use
of goat meat, as goats were generally
healthy animals.

A business woman, whose experience

Doctors Caq't
Cure It I
Contagious blood poison is absolutely
beyond the skill of tho doctors. They
may dose a patient for years on their
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never bo rid of the disease ; on tho
other hand, his condition will grow
steadily worse. S. H. K. is the only euro
for this terriblo affliction, because it is
the only remedy which goes direct to
the cause of tho disease and forces it
rrom the system.

It is like self-destruction to continue
to take potash and mercury; besides
totally destroying tho digestion, they
dry up the marrow in tho bones, pro
ducing a stiffness and swelling of the
joints, causing the hair to fall out, and
completely wrecking the system.
For Olnvrl
is guaranteed Purely Vegetable, and is
the only blood remedy free from these
dangerous minerals.
