CLOUD LINING.
The free-silver people have been re
joicing over the demands of Japan on
China for the sum of $400,000,000, which
which it was asserted would be paid in
silver, and that this would cause a sharp
rise in silver. It was even asserted that
the raising of this sum by China would
deplete the civilized Jworld's supply to
uch an extent that the white metal
would go to par and perhaps even to a
premium. Their dreams have been
rudely shattered, for instead of the sum
named, Japan will be satisfied with one
fourth of it, or $100,000,000.
' Of course the drawing of that sum
from Europe in a lump would affect the
market slightly but not permanently. If
silver is to be again made a full and free
legal tender, it most be because there is
some more substantial reason for it, than
the urgent necessities of a single nation
caused by the settling of a war debt. It
must be because the civilized nations of
the world have need of it, instead of the
uncivilized. It must be because not one
country, but the money centers of the
world want it as a redemption money
and desire it placed upon an equality
with gold.
: We confess to being "on the fence" on
the silver question, and we are in that
inenviable and uncomfortable position
because we are unable to determine
which side of the controversy is correct.
We have read arguments that to as
seemed unanswerable at the time, only
to find later like arguments on the other
side of the question. Besides this we
' have read some of the veriest rot on both
sides that was almost enough to condemn
either. The fight is on. however, and it
is going to be brought to a finish. It is
going to be the issue in the next presi
dential campaign, and as far as the
question can be settled in this country,
it will be settled next year. We are'
firmly convinced that the experiment of
free-silver will be tried, that the flame
baa been kindled and must burn itself
out. We hope the experiment may
prove satisfactory, for if it proves other
wise the hard times of the past two years
will be continued indefinitely.
TO WOOLMEN.
There is being agitated on the coast
the question of preparation of wool for
market. Fruit men know well that the
manner in which the product is bandied
and the character of the package has
much to do with the selling. Ordinary
fruit put up in first class shape will out
sell the best fruit' put up in a slipshod
manner. It is being argued that this is
true of wool, and trade journals East and
West are advocating the exercise of more
care in putting up the clips to submit to
' the sharp inspection of Eastern buyers.
The argument becomes more potent to
the American wool grower when it is
suggested that he must meet competi
tion from a great variety of foreign wool
being handled in this market. It has
been and is coming in from all Quarters
in unexpected formB, and the manu
facturer has several kinds to select from.
Under this condition of things it is more
necessary than ever before that ' the do
mestic wool growers should pay greater
attention to the way in which they pre
pare their wools for market. Says the
Wool Reporter: "This matter of the
preparing of. wools for market is again
. attracting the attention of trade and al
though several have adopted the sugges
tions given by us in previous seasons as
to the method of putting up wool, there
is room for great improvement in this
respect. If the domestic grower is to
hold his own in competing with foreign
wools, it is absolutely essential that he
should keep out the tags and staffing,
and that the fleeces shoulaN be rolled
loosely, and tied, not with big, rough,
coaree-fibred twine, which leaves splint
ers in thefleece. but should not be tied
more than twice each way round the
fleece."
One can hardly pick up a newspaper
these days without running bump up
against an account of some lazy lubber,
who is going around the world on foot,
or a bicycle, or a wager or some -other
measly contrivance he has gotten up to
attract attention and live without labor.
We consider the whole "bilin of em"
worthless, cultus fakes from Nellie Bly
and George Francis Train to the tramp
journalists, tramp club men and tramp
&kes generally. We can see no differ
ence between a broken down ninth-rate
drunken reporter, who "is tramping
around the world, and his prototype, the
every day hobo, who" is juSt tramping
around the country. We can see no
more respectability in asking tor hand
outs by the individual who has gambled
that he could become a successful hobo,
and the doing of the same act by Weary
Watkins, who tackles the job from sheer
laziness. The man who starts around
the world without any clothes on ought
to be compelled to finish his trip without
additions to bis wardrobe. The woman
who is silly enough to emulate the men
fools of this kind is, if anything, worse
than the idiotic male. We are tired of
reading the same old chestnutty stories
about fakes of this kind, and would
much rather give aid and assistance to
the highwayman, who holds up a train
at the risk of his life, than to the degen
erate specimens of humanity who per
ambulate the osuntry, trying to hold up
the people with a wretched fake. .There
are genuine tramps enough now, and
the encouraging of the species by ama
teurs is not needed.

never had any after-pain or any other pain.
It was all due to God and Dr. Pierce's Fa
