When fluked if h thought tbe timci are iiuprovinu, be replied: "Since tbn flection in November I have been lu all parti of tbe country, from Sou Frauoisoo to Boston, from Muutrcal (o Alluutu, and it is tbe con current tfwiiiiiouy (but times huve nev er been limner or money scarcer than dow. Lvtiy braucb of industry luu gulnlieK. Bouts, income, interest and profits huve dwindled. Prices of land, funu proijutu cud Runcrul commodities have sunk lowrrr nnd lower till iu many localities the most valuable improved farms in rich regions aro absolutely nn lulable.

They will give the Republican party a fair chance, as they gave the Democrats four years ago. Should we fuil to secure public revenue and restore prosperity they are likely to try some other experiment. Sometimes a sick man wbo bas found no relief from the regular pbysiciuus buys a bottle of pat ent medicine or consults a faith doctor and gets well. " "Is international bimetallism com ing?" " 'International bimetallism' is a so-, norous phrase, but when it is mention ed to the average citizen be stops talk ing and winks or smiles and asks about the prizefight, or Cuba, or the Greek war, or whether colored shirts and tan shoes are likely to be worn much this summer.
