THE GOLD STANDARD.
The fact cannot be too often re
peated that the declaration of the
Republican party in favor of the
gold standard simply means the
maintenance of a fling that already
exists. It is the free silver people,
say 8 the Globe Democrat, who pro
pose to make a change and establish
a new standard. They arc against
the present currency system, and
anxious to substitute for ii one un
der -which a different kind of money
would be used for the payment of
debts and wages ' and the transaction
of the country's business. The Re
publicans believe in keeping things
as they are in that respect. That
is to say, they hold that we now
have sound and satisfactory money,
and that it would be foolish and dis
astrous to throw away this advan
tage. It is not proposed to eliminate
silver from the currency and prevent
its use for commercial purposes, but
only to so limit the amount of it that
it can circulate freely at par with
gold. Any intelligent voter can
readily comprehend the distinction
and the reason for making it. AVe
have absorbed as much silver as we
can carry with safety, and the Re
publicans are opposed to an increase
of it that would inevitably unsettle
alues, depreciate the currency, and
force us at an inferior standard.
It is not true, as the free silver
orators practically assert, that the
Republican party is seeking to make
gold the only form of money in the
country. On the contrary, it mere
ly insists that other forms of money
shall be kept as good as gold. There
should be no objection to that from
any man who has the prosperity and
welfare of the country at heart.
There cannot be two standards of
value at the same time, and the Re
publicans contend that the one
which now exists, and which is
known to be safe, should not be ex
changed for ore that would be un
safe and in every way mischievous.
The silver element now in the cur
rency is freely accepted because it is
on a parity with gold, and the Re
publicans wish to continue it in ser
Tice on that basis; but they are
against the free and unlimited coin
age of it because that would dcstioy
the parity and flood the country with
a depreciated circulation. It is not
a question of dispensing with the use
of silver, but of adapting the volume
of it to the conditions which govern
its value. The limit of safety in the
coinage of such money .has been
reached, and the Republican party
says that we should have no more of
it when the result would certainly be
a stupendous - misfortune. That is
what is meant, and all that is meant,
by the maintenance of a gold stand

Belva Hogue's Bedy Found.
About midday Saturday Louis Neil,
who bad made a trip to bis ranch, which
ia situated some six and one-half miles
down the river, found the body of young
. Belva Hogue, who was drowned on
Tuesday, Jane 16, near the water's edge,
in a very decomposed state. He lifted
the body from the river and immediately
procured a vehicle and had it conveyed
to the morgue. The boy cannot be
recognized and the mother, though some
what relieved at his body having been

recovered, refuses to be fully reconciled.
The boy's father has not yet been com
municated with and is, consequently,
still in ignorance of the family's loss.
The funeral took place from the morgue
at 9 o'clock Sunday morning. Pendle

Delicate Surgical Operation.
Last week Dr. Pilkington performed
the most delicate operation known in
surgery. The operation consisted of cut
ting open Lee Perrin's eye ball and ex
tracting the lens and also clearing oat a
comparatively large pus abcesa in inter
ior of eye. The trouble was caused by a
piece of exploding gun cap some 5 weeks
ago, and was aggravated by another ac
cident which occured daring his sleep.
Dr. Pilkington did not expect the opera
tion to restore sight, but did it with the
hope of saving the other eye which wb
threatened with sympathetic trouble,
also to relieve the agonizing -pain. The
good eye is new out of danger, the pain
has all gone, and there is some prospect
for a very dim sight in the affected eye.
Dr. Pilkington was helped by Dr. A
Witham, of Grass Valley, who adminis
tered the anaesthetic. Antelope Herald.
THREW HIS CRUTCHES AWAY.
Eoglnetr W. Hayes, of the So a therm Pa
cific Cared.
Mr. Editor, Dear Sir: I hold it to
be a duty, as well as a pleasure, to make
known through the press that which of
all other things is essential to most, viz :
The way to cure pain and sickness.
From December 1st to the 29th I was
confined to my house with sciatic rheu
matism, kidney trouble and inflamma
tion of the neck and bladder and general
indisposition. Could not sleep more
titan an hour at a time. AH means I
tried proved una vailing. I was prompted
to visit Dr. Darrin through the advice of
my friends who bad been cured by him,
though I must say I had little faith that
electricity would cure me. I came to
the doctor on crutches. Two weeks'
treatment has cured me, so I've thrown
away my crutches and my other com
plaints have all disappeared, so I can
now take command of my engine again.
W. Hayes,
914 fifth street, East Portland, Or.
Dr. Darrin is now located at the Uma
tilla bouse, The Dalles, and will remain
until July 3d. . jun29-d3t-wlt

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti
tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Care is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the foun
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so mnch
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of
