BISMARCK, N.D., Aug. 25 — For ten years experiments have been going on in farming in the vast sub-arid belt of the Dakotas. Today the problem seems to have been solved. Inspection during the past week of a half score of experimental farms have made leading farmers of this State enthusiastic advocates of what is known as the Campbell system of soil culture. They have unanimously recommended it to the farmers of their counties, and have resolved in public to use it themselves. This system was first tried in South Dakota last year and the season before by a farmer named Campbell. It consists of seeping the subsols by means of dipped harrows that moisture shall not escape downward, and in so cultivating the surface that it shall not escape upward. There is formed a hard subsol with a dust blanket on the surface, the latter about two inches deep, and the result is to give the growing crop all the moisture that falls. Last autumn arrangements were made by the Northern Pacific road to test the system on half a dozen farms along its line, and by the Soo road to try it on five. The Milwaukee road also has had one farm in operation, and the State of North Dakota another. All have been wonderfully successful, so much so, indeed, that a company has been formed to improve on this system a million or more acres in the Campaign of Education First. 1. Silver has always been measured by gold. 2. That by which something else is measured is the standard of value. The number of ounces of silver an ounce of gold would buy has always been the ratio. 3. Like all other values, the ratio of silver to gold has been controlled by supply and demand. 4. When this government was founded, the commercial or true ratio was b-lived to be 15 to 1. 5. At that ratio silver was admitted free and unlimited to the mint. Gold dollar, 2¼ grains of fine gold; 2¼ x 15 equals 371¼ grains fine silver, the "silver dollar of the daddies." 6. The intent and belief of the "daddies" was that 371¼ grains of pure silver would buy as much of anything as 2¼ grains of gold would buy. 7. Or that 15 ounces of fine silver would pay as much debt as 1 ounce of gold. Second. 1. The ratio of 15 to 1, fixed by law, remained actually correct but a very short time. 2. Owing to admission of foreign coins which were inferior, no American gold or silver coins circulated. Coineage of silver dollars was suspended in 1804 and was not resumed until 1820. Then 1,000 were coined. 3. In 1834 the "dollar of the daddies" ceased to exist. The weight of the silver dollar was changed to 412½ grains. This altered the ratio to 16 to 1. 4. Silver then became more profitable to export than to coin. 5. Thus we went to the single gold standard, on which we have been down to the present time. 6. Dropping the silver dollar legally from coinage in 1873 was only making a more record of what had been actually true from 1834. Silver declined to be coined during that entire period except in small quantities. 7. The whole amount of silver coined from the foundation of the government in 1873 was about $8,000,000, although its coinage was free and unlimited. Third. 1. From 1878 to July 1, 1896, under limited silver coinage, we coined, in full this: Coming upon a silver basis would stantly stimulate again the production of silver. The ores are now easily accrued in inoxhaustible quantity, from which can be put upon the market at a profit to 50 cents an ounce, at which price over dollar" would be worth 30 to 38 or less than a greenback was during darkest days of 1864. Under that lusus and under such conditions there is no possible doubt that the price owed steadily decline on the average wards the point at which it can be proclaimed which in some mines is said to be less than 25 cents an ounce, and invades improvements have not ceased. GREAT PARIS SHOW THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT PERFECTING DETAILS — AMERICA YET REPRESENTED. WASHINGTON, Aug. 23 — The government is rapidly perfecting details of the International Exposition to be held Paris in 1900, commemorating the bicentury, and in this connection having the State Department for the name commissioner-general who will represent United States and for such other information available as to the participation of his try. To this Acting Secretary Rookhill replied that the commissioner-general not been named, as the American Coiner took no step at its recent session to pay for American representation at the expoHe expressed the belief, however, that approaching session of Congress will about an acceptance of the invitation French republic. President Cleveland called the attentions Congress to the invitation in his annual sage last December, and expressed that earnest hope that steps would be taken an adequate representation by the States. But Congress acts slowly on affairs, and no measure was considered idea being that there was plenty of time for 1900. It appears, however, that Britain, Germany and other leading countries have been quick to accept, and that the government is allotting space to these tries. American exhibitors are beginning make inquiry as to where their goods will be but no answer can be given them prospect is that the best space will be before the United States accepts the ivory and makes application for space.

It consists of an packing the subsols by means of dipped harrows that moisture shall not escape downward, and in so cultivating the surface that it shall not escape upward. There is formed a hard subsoil with a dust blanket on the surface, the latter about two inches deep, and the result is to give the growing crop all the moisture that falls. Last autumn arrangements were made by the Northern Pacific road to test the system on half a dozen farms along its line, and by the Soo road to try it on five. The Milwaukee road also has had one farm in operation, and the State of North Dakota another. All have been wonderfully successful, so much so, indeed, that a company has been formed to improve on this system a million or more acres in the sub-arid belt. The Dakotas are divided north and south in three diverse areas, merging insensibly into one another—on the east the humid belt of the Red river and the territory south of it, in the center the valley of the James, subarid and to the west the slopes of the Missouri and the distinctly arid regions, where artesian wells are the only means by which crops can be made to grow. In the central belt, whose soil is as fertile as any on the globe, the annual rainfall scarcely exceeds fifteen inches, and is greatest in June. During the months when wheat is most liable to rain from hot winds and drought, there are almost no rains and the crops wither and die. When rains come they are often accompanied by winds that lay flat the grain and so make impossible economical outting. There are many millions of acres of these lands, and through them run mady railroads, which depend for traffic on the crops that can be raised. On these lands natural conditions must be combated—either by drawing on the stores of subterranean waters by artesian wells or by methods of tillage that will retain the moisture in the soils. Experimental farms on the Campbell system have been in operation this season in many places, and the results indicate the final triumph of man over nature in this difficult belt. By the new system frequent cultivation is needed, and this is so in regard to not only coral and root crops, but also wheat and all grains, which are usually so sown that cultivation is impossible. Farmers have doubted the practicability of cultivating small grams, owing to the enormous amount of extra work entailed, but it has been shown at the farms run this year that the cost of cultivation, running over the farms six times, does not exceed 50 cents an acre, and the increased yield far outweighs that. The cost of packing the subsols and making ready for the first crop is about the same. It was the general opinion that little of the results of the system of culture could be seen this season owing to the unusual rainfall of the early spring; but on the contrary the good effects of the new method have been brought out by comparison with ordinary cultivation as well as a dry year could have shown them. So wet was the spring that the roots of grain did not go deep, and when the later dry weather came it withered the wheat and ruined thousands of acres cultivated in the usual way. On the Campbell farms close by the new plan led to greater roots, and while there was room between the rows of wheat, there was no withering, and the yield has been twice as great as in adjoining fields. By the new plan the grain does not grow so high, thereby avoiding the danger from heavy winds, but it stools far better, and the stalks are more thrifty than any seen in this region before. At the State Soldiers' Home, where the Commonwealth is trying the new system, the wheat yields are fairly twenty-seven bushels to the acre, the barley about sixty, and oats, potatoes, corn and vegetables are all not far from a double crop. On these farms all sorts of crops suitable to a northern climate have been tested and found successful. Among the unusual articles raised this season have been watermelons, peanuts, coffee, tea, ground cherries and a number of articles supposed to be found only in a more southerly country. All grew well. 1. From 1878 to July 1, 1896, under limited silver coinage, we coined, in full legal tender silver dollars, $429,289,916 at the ratio of 16 to 1. 2. In 85 years prior to 1878 the whole amount of silver coined by the United States under free silver coinage was $222,$585,$921. 3. In the 18 years from 1878 to 1896 the whole amount of silver coined under limited coinage was $471,$927,$729. 4. More than $240,000,000 more of silver was coined in 18 years of limited coinage than during the 85 years of free silver coinage. 5. All the silver dollars in our currency are full legal tender at 100 coins each (except for redemption of gold certificates), which are not legal tender. 6. Subsidiary silver (half dollars, quarter dollars and dimes) are legal tender to the amount of $10 in any one transaction. 7. The total limited legal tender silver coined is $179,$566,$288$60. 8. Total silver coined by the United States down to July 1, 1896, $696,$464,$343$10. Fourth. 1. The reason a new demand for free coinage of silver by the United States has arisen is that, owing to increased production caused chiefly by improved methods of mining and better facilities for transportation, the output of silver became so large as to diminish its value in relation to gold. 2. Down to 1873 silver was more profitable to export than to colo., and that year only $293,$600 was offered for coinage in the United States. 3. In 1856 the world's production of silver was 31,400,000 ounces; real ratio to gold, 15.38 to 1. 4. In 1876 world's production of silver was 67,753,000 ounces; or more than double; ratio to gold, 17.88. 5. In 1886 world's production of silver was 93,276,000 ounces; trebling that of 1856; real ratio to gold, 20.78. 6. In 1895 world's production of silver was 165,000,000 ounces; or more than five times what it was in 1856; real ratio to gold; 31.56. 7. That is to say an ounce of gold is worth to-day nearly 32 ounces of silver. 8. Yet owners of uncoined silver want us to accept it for free and unlimited coinage at the proportion of 16 ounces of silver to 1 ounce of gold. Fifth. 1. The effect would be to flood the country with silver dollars worth 52 cents to 53 cents. 2. When the government was founded, the "daddles" believed and intended that 15 ounces of silver would purchase as much as one ounce of gold, or that 15 ounces of silver would discharge a debt which I ounce of gold would discharge. 3. To-day 1 ounce of gold will purchase as much as 32 ounces of silver. If we coin silver at 16 to 1, therefore we would be forging on ourselves a dollar of a purchasing power or debt paying power only one-half—the present dollar of our currency, all its dollars being kept up to a value of 100 cents each by the existing gold standard. 4. Free coinage of silver would put us on the silver standard with China, Japan and other countries in which labor is in practical use.

In her hair a sparkling jewel Shone like a star in the evening mist; A rosebud her needle had wrought in crewel As I watched the play of her gleaming wrist; And the pout of her lip, as a flower uncles Its petals when moist with morning dew, Was sweet as the blush of a blooming rose is, If sweeter rose in her garden grow. The poise of her head, as her snow-white fingers Bent over the head with a loving care, In memory now in a day dreaming, Oh, the light of her eyes in the gaillight's glare! Garden bleen, the eyes to my heart had spoken, I hung in her web like a blundering fly, But her lips were mute, and no light love's token Escaped in a word, or a look or sigh. The hour grew late; must not love grow bolder? "Tis leap year," I whispered; her love-lit eyes Met my own, and her head nestled nearer my shoulder. She looked at me now, in coy surprise. "Tis leap year," I said, "and the maiden proposes." I waited my one without fear or dread. Oh, her cheeks were as dimpled and red as her roses; "I love you! I love you!" was all she said.

For your Protection.—Catarrh "Ourex" or Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken internally, usually contain either Mercury or Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injurious if too long taken. Catarrh is a local, not a blood disease, caused by sudden change to cold or damp weather. It starts in the nasal passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat. Cold in the head causes excessive flow of mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the results of catarrh will follow; severe pain in the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad breath, and oftentimes an offensive discharge. The remedy should be quick to alleviate inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for these troubles and contains no mercury nor any injurious drug. Price, 50 cents. 2. When the government was founded, the "daddies" believed and intended that 15 ounces of silver would purchase as much as one ounce of gold; or that 15 ounces of silver would discharge a debt which 1 ounce of gold would discharge. 3. To-day 1 ounce of gold will purchase as much as 32 ounces of silver. If we coin silver at 16 to 1, therefore we would be foraging on ourselves a dollar of a purchasing power or debt paying power only one-half the present dollar of our currency, all its dollars being kept up to a value of 100 cents each by the existing gold standard. 4. Free coinage of silver would put us on the silver standard with China, Japan and other countries in which labor is in practical serfdom and civilization is so scarce begun. 5. There is not in the world today a first class nation that opens its mines to free and unlimited coinage of silver. FALL IN PRICE OF SILVER SINCE 1878. When the government in 1878 began buying and stowing away silver under the Bland-Allison Act, silver bullion was worth $1 15 cents an ounce; at which price a silver dollar was also worth about eighty-eight cents. (To make a silver dollar worth a gold dollar, at 16 to 1, silver bullion must bring $1 29 an ounce). The new demand sent the price up for a little while to $1 22 an ounce which made a silver dollar worth 94 cents. But the government purchases so stimulated the production of our new and abundant mines that the price soon began to fall. Moreover, new mines were hunted for and found in hitherto unsuspected number, and chemical and engineering skill were taxed to find new and cheaper and more rapid methods of reducing the ores, while railroad extensions so greatly cheapened the transportation. So, though the government was buying at least $2,000,000 worth a month the production outran the demand and the price kept dropping until in 1890 it was only 93 cents an ounce and a "silver dollar" was worth 72 cents. The then government of the people asked to raise the price by increasing its purchases and stowing away more. So the Sherman Act of that year ordered the purchase of 4,500,000 ounces a month, and the price for a short time went up to $1.09 an ounce. But the mine owners were equal to their new opportunity and poured out the silver so fast that by 1893 its price had gone down to 84 cents an ounce and a "silver dollar" was worth only 65 cents. Then the Sherman act was repealed as a hopeless failure to raise the price, and silver gradually sank to a general level of 66 to 68 cents an ounce, or 51 to 52 cents' worth in a "silver dollar." The present point of this bit of history is Gif me de lines, Ben,' ha-ha-ha, ha—say, why don't you left? Any one who refuses to laugh story when it is told in Sohneotad once ostracised.

There is not the alighest doubt great majority of the people of the States are in favor of a larger use of money in the money transactions of the country. The question is how can this be about with the least shock to business to what extent can it be safely used by bimetallism in advocate of the free and unlimited sale of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 claim he is in favor of a bimetallic standard that they favor the present system that they are true bimetallists, and no coinage of silver at 16 to 1 means mallism. The arguments in favor of these positions would fill with We are fully in accord with the denomination larger use of silver. We believe there is a safe middle ground upon which having the best interest of the cow heart can unite and secure the destitution—an enlarged use of silver—with countering the dangers feared from absolutely unlimited coinage at a ratio of 16 to 1. To accomplish let us make all kinds of silver coins tender for sums of $50 and less; bills or coin of gold, or based on less than $20; coin the bullion not treasury amounting to $60,000,000 would practically make silver a legal for nearly all domestic bills can be silver. This course would put in tension four or five hundred millions of because transactions will necessitate silver since there will be nothing gold form of less than $20.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23—The French armament is rapidly perfecting details for international Exposition to be held in in 1900, commemorating the birth of century, and in this connection has asked State Department for the name of the missioner-general who will represent the United States and for such other information able as to the participation of his counTo this Acting Secretary Rookhill has and that the commissioner-general habeen named, as the American Congress no step at its recent session to provide American representation at the exposition. expressed the belief, however, that the teaching session of Congress will bring an acceptance of the invitation of the both republic. President Cleveland called the attention of press to the invitation in his annual meslast December, and expressed the most hope that steps would be taken for equitable representation by the United States. But Congress acts slowly on these cases, and no measure was considered, the being that there was plenty of time benished that there was plenty of time benished to accept, and the French armament is allotting space to these counAmerican exhibitors are beginning to inquiry as to where their goods will go, no answer can be given them. The secrt is that the best space will be taken by the United States accepts the invitation makes application for space. This was case at the last exposition, when Ameri- SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS. A fire in the residence of John Felbach at Watertown, S. D., burned to death Felbach and his three daughters. The largest and most complete stock of gent's, youths' and boys' clothing in Orange county is kept at the Red Front in Santa Ana, well known throughout the State as the great undersellers of gent's wearing apparel. Boots and shoes, furnishing goods, hats and caps, and trunks and valises of all styles and shapes. See their new ad in this issue. During the past week there has been placed in the orange groves of Ontario five colonies of the rhizobius, the scale-bug eater. One colony has also been placed at Cucomonga. Unless climatic conditions cause the complete extermination of the scale-colonies of the rhizobius will be placed in the orange groves throughout San Bernardino county. The stockholders of the First National Bank of San Bernardino have been called upon by the Controller of the Currency for an assessment of $45 per share, or $45,000 to meet the deficit duo depositors. It is estimated that the assessment will not produce more than $15,000 in cash owing to the bankruptty of several of the prominent stockholders since the failure of the bank. Only 40 per cent of the amount of deposits has been paid. A band of 125 cattle was being driven across the county bridge over the Mered河, about twelve miles south of Turlock, when the bridge gave way and the greater number of the animals dropped into the stream, a distance of about 100 feet. A large number of them were killed and a score had their legs broke and had to be dispatched. A section of the bridge was left standing in the middle, and a dozen or so of the animals were left there. It was impossible to rescue them from their lofty perch. Farmers in Brookfield township, Ill., are greatly exercised over a new disease which has broken out there and which has spread in three herds of over 100 cattle. Many of the animals are hopelessly blind and many others are rapidly losing their sight. A veterinary who was called to see them can find nothing in the authorities defining the disease, which in each case affects the pupil of the eye. It may be necessary to have the cattle affected killed to prevent the spread of the peculiar malady. Mrs. S. V. Root, who is a prominent St. Paul society woman, has been appointed by the Mayor as a special police officer posse- look told the physician in charge that he had administered to the inmates the medicines required, when in fact he had intrusted the duty to George Malabar, a patient. As a result of his deception and an error on the part of the man whom he deputized to administer the medicines, the body of David Netcher was taken to the morgue and the fate of Thomas Murphy hangs in the balance. Malabar mistook the battle and administered two ounces of cocosus indiens, which aots after the manner of active narcotic poisons. The little town of Oakdale, in Stanislaws county, is excited over the disappearance of R. W. Rhodes, a youth of 19 years, and Modesto has a missing girl in Miss Clara Wayne of the same age. The two have desired to marry for a long time, but their wishes were opposed by their parents. It is supposed they went to San Francisco to get married and the parents of both have joined forces and gone in search of the lovers. The cruiser Brooklyn was given a preliminary trial under forced draught over the official course between Cape Ann and Cape Porpoise off the Boston harbor on Mouday. The average speed for the round trip of 83 knots was 20.97 knots per hour, a very satisfactory performance, all things considered. The speed call for a speed of 20 knots an hour, in a run of four consecutive hours. For each quarter-knot above this speed a premium of $80,000 is allowed by the builders. It is believed that on the official trial a speed of 214 knots will be recorded, in which event the ship will earn for the Cramps the handsome bonus of $300,000. Some time ago Mrs. Leo M. Stein of Chillocothe, Ohio, left her husband and went to live with the family of Dr. Edward Meggenhofen, a prominent druggist. Last week Mrs. Stein and Mrs. Meggenhofen went to Cincinnati to visit friends. During their absence the doctor disposed of all his property and shipped his household goods to Cleveland, he following with his children. When he reached Columbus he telegraphed Mrs. Stein that her sister in Cleveland was dying, and she left for that city on the first train. Mrs. Meggenhofen went home and found her house empty, and a note left by her truant husband bidding her farewell and saying he could not live without Mrs. Stein. Prescott B. Gladden, a young San Francisco lawyer, has been arrested under an indictment by the federal grand jury for sending improper matter through the mails. Miss Jessie Ryan, a stenographer, will be the principal witness against him. The two were employed in the same office, and Gladden fell in love with Ryan. His affection President Cleveland called the attention of press to the invitation in his annual message December, and expressed the most hope that steps would be taken for adequate representation by the United States. But Congress acts slowly on these issues, and no measure was considered, the being that there was plenty of time before 1900. It appears, however, that Great Britain, Germany and other leading powers been quick to accept, and the French government is allotting space to these countries. American exhibitors are beginning to inquiry as to where their goods will go, no answer can be given them. The prospect is that the best space will be taken by the United States accepts the invitation makes application for space. This was case at the last exposition, when American exhibitors were at much disadvantage in location. It is expected in official circles that when press meets it will provide for a commission-general and an assistant. This is the case with the last French expedition when Gen. Franklin was commissioner-at a salary of $10,000, and the assistant commissioner received $5,000. The son prevails that as the appointment serve after the present administration President Cleveland will not make the investment even though Congress passes not before March 4th next. Aside from direct emoluments attached to the office, a fund is provided for office and living causes. In the case of Gen. Franklin, the Bush Government conferred on him the optional honor of the cross of the Legion honor, while the assistant commissioner lived a lesser distinction. ALL THE WAY FROM SCHENECTADY. UP-COUNTRY JOKE WITH A RAINES LIQUOR TAX LAW. In Sohenectady they are still telling funny stories of which the Raines which is no longer a bill, but has become a law, is made in some way to serve the nucleus. Here is a specimen, which been told all through "Dorp" from the ville bridge to Mt. Pleasant, and to then College. You know Peter Burg? Of course, not long ago a salesman for a liquor or went into Pete's place and said: "Say, I've got a funny story for you. The day I wanted to use a carriage, so I honored to a friend of mine whose first is Bill, to let me take his. Pretty Bill came driving along and I stepped him and said: "Give me the reins." See? reins, Raines, reins Bill, reins Bill." Oh, mein, but dot is fooney," replied "I tell dot shorthy py de feerst man rooms in mein place." Well, pretty soon one of Pete's friends in and Pete could hardly suppress hisement. Quickly he burst out: "Oh, Mr. Greegaman, I got a foony shorthy want to dell you. It will make you like ennying.

Root, who is a prominent St. Paul society woman, has been appointed by the Mayor as a special police officer, possessing full power to make arrests. Mrs. Root will not patrol a beat, nor will she look after the property of any person, yet she will wear a star. She desired the appointment to aid her work in connection with the rescue home, an institution for the refrmission of fallen women, with which she has long been connected. She thinks that as soon as it is generally known that she has police authority she will be treated with more consideration by people with whom she comes in contact. The resignation of Hoke Smith as Secretary of the Interior has been accepted by the President to take effect September 1st. It is understood that his successor has been agreed upon, but the announcement of his appointment will probably not be made until Secretary Smith has formally given up the reins of the Interior Department. Political reasons only have caused the break in the President's cabinet, and it can be stated on high authority that the personal relations between the President and Secretary are as close and cordial as ever. It can be further stated that in accepting the resignation the President did so with extreme reluctance and regret. Announcement was made by President Cleveland at Gray Gables Monday night of the appointment of David R. Francis, ex-Governor of Missouri, as Secretary of the Interior, vice Hoke Smith, who recently resigned the secretaryship because of his financial views. Francis will probably assume office on September 1, as that is the date named in Secretary Smith's resignation. Family troubles caused William Ragan to separate from his wife in Denver two months ago. Mrs. Ragan went to Kansas City with her two children and went to live with her mother. Last Friday night Ragan arrived in Kansas City. He brought $1000 with him and Mrs. Ragan seemed pleased to see him, and the family was soon installed in lodgings. When Ragan and his wife retired that night it was with the purpose of beginning married life anew. When Ragan awoke, at 4 o'clock Saturday morning, his wife was gone with $400 of his money. He reported the case to the police, but their investigations proved that, the woman had been taken across the river to the Kansas side in a hook, and that from there she had boarded a Santa Fe train for Denver. Abraham Netherwood, 67 years old, was whirled about a shaft in the Norfolk and New Brunswick hosiery company's mill at New Brunswick, N.J., and had his arms torn off. He was a spinner by trade and for fifteen years had been superintendent of the spinning department of the mill. He was on the fourth floor, about twenty minutes after work began, when he was called on to repair a belt which ran from a shaft on the floor to one on the coiling. To make the repair he stood on a stepladder. The belt had been slipped from the blocks and hung on the rapidly revolving shaft. The shaft was revolving at the rate of 150 times a minute. Netherwood was caught and before he could free himself one hand was dragged between the belt and the shaft. He uttered a scream, and all looked up to see his left arm being drawn by the belting. Then the man's body was lifted up and whirled over the shaft. Twice the body went around, each time striking the ceiling with great force. As the body dropped on left standing in the middle, and a dozen or so of the animals were left there. It was impossible to rescue them from their lofty perch.

There is not the slightest doubt that a majority of the people of the United States are in favor of a larger use of silver in money transactions of the country. The question is how can this be brought into with the least shock to business and what extent can it be safely carried? Every one you meet claims to be a metallist, but there is a wide difference ideas as to what bimetallism is. Theocate of the free and unlimited coinage silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 claims that in favor of a bimetallic standard, while who favor the present system declare they are true bimetallists, and that freeage of silver at 16 to 1 means monometal. The arguments in favor of each these positions would fill volumes. Are fully in accord with the demand for larger use of silver. We believe that there is safe middle ground upon which those making the best interest of the country at all can unite and secure the desired re-entering the dangers feared from the free absolutely unlimited coinage of silver ratio of 16 to 1. To accomplish this we make all kinds of silver coinage legal tender for sums of $50 and less; issue no or coin of gold, or based on gold for more than $20; coin the bullion now in the treasury amounting to $60,000,000. This would practically make silver a legal tender, nearly all domestic bills can be paid in silver. This course would put in circulation four or five hundred millions of silver, cause transactions will necessarily be in order since there will be nothing in the form of less than $20. There is not the Republican platform to prevent that any from adopting this solution of the situation. 100 cords of wood, $6 per cord. C. Otro arr. jy30tf Young Stock for Sale.

Miss Mattie Overman who has been a resident of Los Angeles for some weeks past has made a complete confession of her guilty relations with Dr. Brown. Miss Overman makes out Brown to be the blackest of villains and herself his willing tool, ready to perjure herself for the sake of having him held up to the world as a much abused man. She declares that her testimony given at the church trial was untrue from beginning to end, and that every statement made by her before the council had been carefully rehearsed in the presence of Brown that she might not say anything that would betray his guilty practices to the people, who had looked upon him as a model of propriety and virtue. Miss Overman says that she feels herself impelled to disobseize the true story of her relations with the former pastor of the First Congregational Church of San Francisco, because she felt that some of the members of the council had been reproaching themselves for the findings in the church trial. Others say the reason for her confession is that Brown has withdrawn his financial assistance to her. Miss Overman is now engaged in "rescue" work. It is quite likely that Brown will be expelled at the next meeting of the conference. At present he is merely suspended. Miss Overman may testify before the conference. Brown is now in the East, but hearing of the Overman confession declares that he will return to California and "live down his shame." The negligence of a nurse at the City and County Hospital at San Francisco and the mistake of an inmate caused the death of one patient and placed the life of a second in jeopardy. In order that he might secure a pass to leave the institution, Richard Sher- In Kansas City, Kan., last Friday morning an unknown thief entered a branch of the American National Bank during the momentary absence of the cashier, and prying open the desk, secured $1000 or more in currency and escaped. The statement of E.R.Boswell, cashier and teller, who is suspicioned, is that he opened the bank shortly after 9 o'clock. After counting several thousand dollars taken from the safe, he remembered he had a message to deliver to a neighboring business house. He hurriedly returned the bulk of the money to the safe, and the rest of it to a drawer in the cashier's table. Across the hall from the bank cashier's office sat J.R. Stoller, president of the Kansas Live Stock Exchange. He was only a dozen feet distant, and Boswell says he felt safe in going out. Although he returned within five minutes the robbery had been committed without any one knowing it. In the minds of the local police there is a strong suspicion against Boswell, and for several hours he was in custody at police headquarters, where he was subjected to a severe "sweating." He would admit nothing, and at a late hour he was allowed to return to his lodgings, though he is still under surveillance. It's Your Duty To give yourself and family an outing.
