Fairbanks and •there of the Notification Committee <Ot (he Republican National Conven tion. Gentlemen: I have already, in accepting the nomination for the ottlcs at the Vice ('residency tendered me by the national Republican convention, expressed my approval of the platform adopted by that body as th* party has** of doctrine. In accordance with accented usage 1 beg now to supple* meat that brief statement of my views S' some additional reflections upon e questions which are in debate be* lore the American people ' The platform declarationa in refer* once to tne money question express dearly and unmistakably the attitude ad the Republican party as to this au* pecaiely Important subject We stand ooqaslifiedly for honesty In finance •ad the permanent adjustment of our Monetary system, in the multifarious activities of trade and commerce, to the existing gold standard of value We hold that every dollar of currency fanned by the United Htates, whether at gold, silver or paper, must be worth • dollar in gold, whether in the pocket of Che man who toils for his dally hewed, in the vault of the savings bank which bolds his deposits, or in Che exchanges of the world. "The money standard of a great ns* Msi should be as fixed and permanent ee the nation itself. To secure uud retain the best should be the desire of every right-minded citizen. "The free coinage of silver at the raise of Id '.o 1 is a policy which no ••tana has ever before proposed, and it ie not to-day permitted In any mint la the world—not even In Mexlea It ie proposed to make the coinage un limited, at an absolutely fictitious UCia, fixed with no refrrancs to In trinsic value or pledge of ultimate xvdemption. With silver st its pres ent price of lets than seventy cents jpxr ounce in the market, such a policy aussi an Immediate profit to the Mller of silver for which there Is no return now or hereafter to the people • or the government. It meats that fe* each dollar's worth of silver bull vsemdelivered at the mint, practically Caro dollars of stamped coin will be tgimem In exchange. For $100 worth at bullion nearly 200 ailver dollars will be delivered. « *iX<et it also be remembered that the -consequences of such an act would probably be cumulative in their ef facta. The crop of silver, unlike that of bay, or wheat, or corn—which, being of yearly production, can be regulated by the law of demand and supply—Is fixed once for all. The miner which has not yet been gath ered la all in the ground. Death or ocher accident of the elements cannot augment or dimloish it. Is it not more than probable that with the esormout premium offered for Its mining the cupidity of man would make an over supply continuous, with Che necessary result of a steady depre ciation as long as the silver dollar . •sssli be kept In circulation at all? finder the laws of finance, which are an fixtr& as those of any other science, -the inevitable result would be a cur xuocy ti and absolutely fist There •a no difference in principle between • dollar half flat and one all fiat. The latter, as the cheapest, under the logko at “cheap money,’ would aurely drive Ur other out. “The proposition for free and un limited ailver coinage, carried to lta uiyicu cuuciumuu, ana out one m pos sible, means, as before intimated, .tWrUlatire warrant for the repudia tion of all existing Indebtedness, ipshdic or private, to the extent of nearly fifty per cent of the face of all nock indebtedness. It demands an malimtted volume of flat currency, irredeemable, and therefore without any standard value in the markets of the world. Every consideration of pablle interest and pubtlo honor de nuts that this proposition should be rejected by the American people. THE MOXKY HTAMMKU.

Any nation which is worthy of credit or confi dence can ufford to say explicitly, on a question so vital to every interest, what It mesne, when such meaning Is i challenged or doubted. It la desira ble that we should make it known at once and uuthorltatlvely, that an "honest dollar" mean* any dollar equivalent to a gold dollar of the present standard of weight sad fine ness The world should likewise be assured thst the standard dollar of America is as inflexible s quantity as ths French Napoleon, the British sovereign, or the German twenty mark piece.

The fathers would have spurned and ridiculed a proposition to make a silver dollar worth only »3 cents, stand of equal value with a gold one worth loo centa The expet icnce of all nations proves that any deprecla | tipn, however alight, of another standard, from tha parity with geld, has driven tha more valuable one out of circulation, and such experience in » mattei of this kind Is worth much more than mere Interested speculative opinion. The fact that few gold coins ara seen in ordluary circulation for domestic uses is no proof at all that the metal is not performing a moat important function In business affairs. The foundation of the bouse is not always In sight, but the house would not stand an hour If there were no foundation. The great energy that moves the ocean steamship Is not al ways in view of the passenger, but It Is, all the same, the propelling force of the vessel, without which it would soon become a worthless derelict “It may ba Instructive to consider t moment how the free and unlimited coinage of silver would affeot a few great interests, and 1 mention only I enough to demonstrate what a caiam i ity may lie before us if tbe platform formulated at Chicago is permitted to be carried out.

Na political expediency or party exlgeney, however pressing, could justify M monstrous an act Th* Tariff. “While the financial issue which has bean thus considered, end which has come, a* the result of the agita tion of recent y*are, to occupy a peculiar conspicuousness, is admitted ly of primary importance, there is another question which must com mand careful and serious attention. Our financial and business condition Is at this moment one of almost unprec edented depression Oar great indus trial system is seriously paralyzed, i’roduotion in many of the important branches of manufacture has alto gether ceased. Capital is without remunerative employment. Labor is idle. The revenues of the govern ment are insufficient to meet its ord inary and necessary expensea These conditions are not the result of acci dent. They are the outcome of a mistaken economic policy deliberately enacted and applieii It would not be difficult, and would not involve any violent disturbance of our existing commercial system, to enact necessary tariff modifications along the lines of experience. “Our party holds that by a wlae ad justment of the tariff, conceived In moderation, and with a view to sta bility, we may secure all needed rev enue, and it declarea that la the event of its restoration to power it will seek to accomplish that result It bolds, too, that it is the duty of the government to protect and en courage in all practical ways the de velopment of domestic industries, th* elevation of home labor and tb* en largement of the prosperity of the people. It does not favor any form of legislation which would lodge in th* government the power to do what the people ought to do for themselves, but it believe* that it ia both wise and patriotic to discriminate in favor of our own material resources, and the utilization, under the best attain able conditions, of our own capital and onr own available skill and In dustry. The Republican party, <n ita first successful contest under Abra ham Lincoln, declared in favor of ‘that policy of national exchange which secure* to the workingman living wages, to agriculture remunerative prices, to mechanics and manufactur ers an adequate reward for tbair skill, labor and enterprise, and to th* nation commercial prosperity and independence.' The principle thus enunciated has never been *' -udoned. In the crisis now upon us H must be tenaciously adhered to. While we mutt insist tnat our monetary stand ard shall be maintained in harmony wiiu mai ui me rivmzeu world, mil our currency must be sound and honest; we must also remember that unless we make it possible for capital to find employment and for labor to earn ample and remunerative wages. It w%lll be impossible to attain that degree of prosperity which, with a sound mouetary policy buttressed by a sound tariff policy, will be assured "In 1892, when by universal con sent we touched the high water mark of our national prosperity, we were under the same financial system that we have to day. Hold was then the same standard, and silver and paper were freely used as the ccmmou cur rency. We had a tariff framed by Kepubiican bands under the direction of the great statesman who now logic ally leads the contest fur a restoration of the policy whose reversal brought paralysis to so many of our industriea and distress upou so large a body ol our people. We were under the polley of reciprocity, formulated hy another illustrious statesman of the genuine American type. We may, if we cbouee to do so. return to the prospvroua con ditions which agisted before tbe pres ent administration came Into power.

What N true, however, I of the dreamy, reflective mood that belongs to andlrone and fender, crack > ling hickory and dancing blue and gold • fire light. Is not quite so applicable to the luncheon or dinner board. Cer | tnlnly the conversation around the ma . hog&ny, where women are assembled. | does not succumb to almost any pren • sure of anecdote. At a luncheon last i week, for example, where a scant doz ! en of pretty bonnets and their fair . wearers graced the occasion, stories flew, and so did talk, before and after, ! between and around them. One of tho ' stories, which Its teller vouched for as absolutely new, was of a little girl whose mother overheard her expound ing the origin of her sex to her family of dolls. “You see," she said, "Adam > was u man all alone and he was very lonesome, and I)od put him to sleep, and then he took hie brains out and made a nice ludv for him.’’ ‘‘And this little girl,” finished the relator, “waa not a Boston but a Chicago Infant.” Another story told was of tho clever ness of a woman, a friend of the speak er, in a transaction with an Insurance Adjuster. The parlor curtains took fire and before the bluze was extinguished the carpet was badly scorched. After looking over the damage the repre sentative of the company said that she wae entitled to the value of a new carpet—$100. "We will allow you that sum,” continued the man, "and we will take your old carpet." “Why, what can you do with it?” the lady asked. "Oh, we'll sell It second-hand and get back $10 or $12 at least," was his care lews reply, Intended to make the com pany's attitude as generous as possible. "In tihat case, promptly put In the car pet’s owner "sell It to me; I’ll give you $12 for It." The adjustor could only comply, with the result that this quick witted chatelaine got a new parlor car pet and a handsome Moquette floor cov ering as well for an upper room that needed It for $12. Could Not Hanco Him. The train waa nearing Detroit when at a way station a young man, dressed In the height of fashion and carrying a summer overcoat stepped on board and went tbrougb the cars as If look ing for some one. He stopped once or twice at a seat occupied by a farmer looking maxi who attracted his atten tion. Finally he asked politely; "Is this Mr. Sam Garland of Bean ville, Ohio?" "Yes, ’spose you read my name on my valise, hey?” "No, uncle; I’m your nephew, Hal Garland of Detroit." “I guess not. 1 reckon I ain’t lived fifty-five years not to hev my eye teeth cut. An’ I ain’t got a novy that looks sech a dude as you air, not by a long shot." The young man colored, but laughed good-naturedly. “I can find some one on the train who knows me," he said. And going Into another car, soon returned with a youth who was of his own age and style. "This 1b my friend, Mr. Sampson, uncle. Perhaps you remember his father, who came from Beanvllle?” “Howdy, Mr. Confederate! I re member Jim Sampson fust rate, but he warn’t no relation of yours. I’m right sorry, boys, but I can’t cash that check of youra. I reckon the goods will have to stay In the freight house. You see, your old uncle has traveled afore.” The two young men went off laugh ing and the nephew who hod been taken so persistently for a confidence man had the satisfaction of seeing hla uncle take the wrong car. and of say ing to a friend: “The next time mother sends me te meet some of her country relatives I’ll take her along. I know the old n an wiu uriug uji ni luo yumw buv tlon.” _ Eating Slowly. Tho opinion that hurry In eating Is a prolific cause of tlyspopslu Is founded on common observation. The 111 ro sults of bolting food have been attrib uted to the lack of thorough mastica tion and to the Incomplete action of the saliva upon the food. Two-thirds of the total which we eat Is starch, and starch cannot be utilised in the system as food until It has beeu converted Into sugar, and this rhange Is principally effected by the saliva Hut there la a third reason why rapidity of eating In terferes with digestion.
