MUCH TO LEARN.
The American people have much
to learn between now and next No
vember. They roust learn that it is
time to slop trifling with economic
loans; that the resources of this
ountry, rich and varied as thej' are,
cannot supply the drain which is
made upon them by the vacillating
course of politicians and pseudo
statesmen. Four years ago the nation was en
joying unexampled prosperity; labor
was emplpyed at remunerative wages;
, capital was making a sure return ;
. our relations with foreign nations
were honorable and peaceful, while
peace and plenty brooded over the
land.
This was all changed by the elec
tion of 1892, when the people over
threw existing conditions and started
on a course wnicn nas sioppea dui
a short distance from ruin. Since
March 4, 1892, there has been sad
dled upon the country a debt of
$262,000,000, upon which there is an
annual interest charge of over $11,
000,000. Tlie surplus which re
mained after years of Republican
rule has disappeared, and in its stead
has been left a mass of debts. The
American people liave paid the price
of their follj'j and years must pass
before the effects will cease being
felt.
This one mistake the nation made.
It now has an opportunity of making
another. The agitation which is
being carried on for the free and un
limited coinage of silver is one of
the distressing signs of the times.
Should such a policy be decreed the
consequences to the country would
be dismal. The credit of the na
tion, the welfare of the people, the
hopes for the future, are all involved
in the settlement of this question.
Free coinage of silver cannot be
defended from any logical standpoint.
A large amount of silver is carried
in circulation because the govern
ment carries a greater amount of
gold in which the silver, should it be
desired could be redeemed. The
amount of bullion in a silver dollar,
at the commercial ratio, approxi
mates fifty cents, and should silver
be coined in unlimited quantities,
the purchasing power would sink to
the commercial vahae and it would
take Iwo dollars to buy what now
can be obtained for one. The cred
itor to whom a debt of fifty dollars
is due. would receive but twenty
five, and the countiy would soon
sink to an ultra silver basis. 1
The debtor class might, reap a
temporary advantage, but the fruits
would bo bitter as further invest
ment of capital would cease and a
. business stagnation result, to which
the present stringency would be in
significant in comparison. The
American people maintain a standard
of living higher than any other na
tion. . Under silver monometalism it
would be brought to the . level of
Mexico.
The present campaign must be
one of education. It is the duty of

73 Second Street.
nation into a chaos from which it
will take years to extricate it.
Those Democrats who object to
the arraignment of Cleveland's ad
ministration contained in the Repub
lican platform, should stop and con
sider whether or not all that was
said is not true. There can be . no
doubt but that the country has
passed through a period of distress
unsurpassed in our previous history,
and it is just as true that this result
is due to Democratic legislation.
Ask the sheep grower whose wool
lies unsold in the warehouses whether
the Republican platform is too severe
upon this free trade administration.
Ask the manufacturer whose mills
are closed and whose market is taken
away by cheap foreign importation.
Ask the laboring man vainly seeking
work. Ask these and many more
who have seen their belongings
swept away if every word in the Re
publican platform upon this point is
not true. We are not afraid cf their
answer.
Democratic promises and Demo
cratic fulfillment are two different
things. In 1892 many farmers were
deluded into .. the belief that free
trade would increase the price of
wheat and make the exports t)f the
country greater. - Here are the
figure which tell a different tale:
In 1892 we exported wheat to the
value of $161,399,132; in 1895 our
rheat exports amounted to $40,
898,547. Difference $120,500,585.
This is the way the Democratic party
saves the country.
OMEN'S FACES
like flowers, fade
and wither with time ;
the bloom of the rose
is only known to the
healthy woman's
cheeks. The nerv
ous strain caused by
the ailments and
pains peculiar to the
sex, and the labor
and worry of rearing'
a familv. can often
be traced -by the lines in the woman's face.
Dull eyes, the sallow or wrinkled face and
those " feelings of weakness " have their
rise in the derangements and irregularities
peculiar to women. The functional de
rangements, painful disorders, and chronic
weaknesses of women, can be cured with
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. For the
young: girl just entering womanhood, for
the mother and those about to become
mothers, and later in "the change of life,"
the " Prescription " is just what they need ;
it aids nature in preparing the system for
the change. . It's a medicine prescribed for
thirty years, in the diseases of women, by
Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician
to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti
tute, at Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription will cure the chronic inflamma
tion of the lining membranes which cause
such exhausting drains upon the system.
It cures nervous prostration, sleeplessness,
faintness, nervous debility and all disorders
arising from derangement of the female
organs and functions.
- Mrs. Jennie Williams, of Mofiaivk Lane Co.,
vregon writes : 1
was sick for over three
years with blind dizzy
spells, palpitation of
the heart, pain in the
back and head, and
at times would have
such a weak tired feel

up in the morning-,
and at times nervous
chills.

well nights, and that bad. nervous feeling and the
pain in my back soon left me. I can walk sever
al miles without getting tired. I took in all three
bottles of Prescription ' and two of ' Discovery.' "
A Household Tranre
D. W. Fuller, of Canajobarie, N. Y,.
says that he always keeps Dr.' King's
New Discovery in the house and his
family has always found the very best
results follow its use ; that he would not
be without it, if procurable. G. A.
Dykeman Druggist, Catskill, N. Y., says
that Dr. Kings New Discovery is un
doubtedly the best cough remedy ; that
he has used it fa his family for eight
years, and it has never tailed to do all
that is claimed for it. Why not trv a
remedy bo long tried and tested. : Trial
