llrfalb ol. & HEMINGFORD, BOX BUTTE COUNTY. NEBRASKA, FRIDAY. SEPT, 25, 1896. NO- 31 V ib" Ambtotle said: "Money oxista by law, not by nature." Tho Custor County Chtof has Como out flat '.footed for Bryan ,aud silv.er Bismarck said iu 1891: "I havo always boon in favor of an intern a tional agreement for the restora tion of silver as a money njetal, uud if it cannot bo had without England's help, then wo ought to restore silver without her." Mn. Heed, of Maine, said, refer ring to tho closing of the Indian mints, "wo havo learned from that object lesson that the yellow man using white money holds at his mercy tho industry of the white man using yellow money" McKinley talks to about as many strangers at his home every day as Bryan does by chasing after them from city to city with a special train charted at the ex pensoof the silver' kings. Alli ance Guide. Now Bro. Paradis you know as vffiW as anybody that Mr. Bryan has not and nover did have a special train at his disposal. 'Tis true he has a special car which is attached to regular trains and it is necessary that he should have. You also know that those "many strangers" are rounded up and carried to "visit" McKinley on a special train and everything is as free as water. Yes, why don't McKinley chaso ,the people ground a while? Is it because those "many strangers" and special trains keep him at home or is it because he is afraid to meet 3x1 honest, liberal-minded man like W. J. Bryan in joint de bate.' McKinley is afaid to como out of his hole und the, people lmow it Is This a Free Country? Colxlen, III., Sept. 18. James Davis, William Wiker, Thomas Smith and Charles Fuller, resi dence of this place, employed as truck-layers by the contractors lay ing tho steel of the new double truck of the Illinos Central between Makunda and Dongolu, were noti fied this morning by their foreman, McCoy, to report to him und re ceive checks for their time. Twelve non-resident laborers re ceived tho same notice. McCoy informed them that the only rea son that he could give for their dis missal was that fbey wore advocat ing the cause of Bryan and free silver too freely. Their places wore promptly filled by Italians. Ab soon as the news reached this place the Bryan followers became very angry and excitement is at fever heat to-night. "If any man dare say that 371 grains of pure silvei are not a dol lar's worth, let him be challenged with the question whether that amount of uncoined silver will not purchase as much as the average of twenty-five of the great staples of the Americai market, including real estate and labor, as the samo silver would havo purchased twenty five years ago? Let him answer that truly, ,or 'forever afterward hold his peace. As n, matter of fact the uncoined silver in the American dollar will buy more of the average of our great staples than tho same would havo bought in 1875. The claim that gold coin is the 'sound monoy,' the 'honest money,' of the world, and that sil verreal, primary silver money, of our old statutory ratio is dis honest and unsound money, is the most false, us it is tho most adroit, proposition over put forth by in terested parties to defraud tho peo ple of tho great nation.''

Mr. Roberts asks "will Bryan carry Nebraska and Kansas" and adds ' here ho has gained some silver republicans and lost some gold democrats, but I think ho has gained two for every one ho has lost in $s county." This news is from tho old home of General Grant. "We informed Mr. Roberts that Bryan would carry Box Butte county by 150 and Ne braska by at least 50,000. After tho Palmer speaking at Alliance a prominent McKinley republican of this city was hoard to remark, "By George, I've at tended a great many republican rallies but that was the 'rattiest' one I over saw; if they can't send out a man who can produce more argument and make a bettor im pression than Palmer dicj; they better not send any." And just then an old soldier chipped in "Yes' Johny Bull ought to send out good orators anyhow because it takes a 'dandy' to cram his argument down tho throats of Americans." Box Butte Items.
