Perhaps the most crushing part of the
avai'.anche of fact that poor "Coin" has
brought upon himself is the proof, from
actual market reports, that the farmer
his not been hurt hy the. fall in prices
since UT3, whatever has caused that fall
Professor Laugblln has shown that the
farmers of the Northwest really get more
goods now In exchange for their wheat
and corn than they did in 1873. What he
showed for. that region has now been
shows for Virginia in a most practical
and telling little pamphlet, "Free Coin'
age and the Fanner," by E. C. Klipstein,
The writer has had access to the books
of a prominent country merchant of Vir
ginia, cove.-lng the years 1867 to 1895, and
showing the real exchangeable value of
produce in goods then and now. In 1867
the farmer coutd get tor 60 bushels of
wheat, 100 bushels of corn, 600 pounds of
pork, and lQp cross-ties, a money price
of 1288.60; in 1896 he could get but 1138.
There Is the "free coinage argument in a
nutshell: the farmer robbed of half his
crops by the gold monopoly. But look
further, and see what the farmer could
do with his money in 1867 and what he
can do now. Mr. Ktlpsteln gives a long
list of prices of groceries, dry goods,
hardware, tooCs, etc., of dally necessity
to the farmer, and shows that an aver
age consumption of these articles would
have cost, under 1867 prices, 1341.08. In
1896 -the seme things could be bought for
tni.06. . Thus the Virginia farmer's loss
by failing prices is really a considerable
gain. . On the transaction referred to he
would be 177 to the good-thai is, to sup
ply JilS needs In 1867 he would have had
to add 161.68 to his produce, while now
be could purchase the same things with
hls produce and have $26.95 to his credit.
..When the steamship Elbe went down
In the darkness, and with her so many
men, . women and children, the officers,
outside of the captain, as also the crew,
were the first to seek for safety, paying
no beed to tha passengers. The same
thing was noticeable In the stories of
the survivors of the Pacific Moll steunv
ship Collma, selfishness and coward.ee
evidently being the traits of many of
those who were In charge of .that vessel.
Another illustration of this has been late
ly furnished by the fatal collision be
tween! w Italian steamers. Of the sev
enteen men composing the crew of the
.wrecked vessel fourteen of them, Includ
ing the captain, managed to save their
' own lives. With tha advent of the mod
era steamer, a good deal of the old-time
romance associated with the sea has
pussed sway, and with it .there seems to
have gone the heroism and self-sacrifice
that were once so characteristic of the
sailor. It is true that on many of the
ocean liners the system of discipline Is
as perfect as It is on a mati-of-wur, and
that In the event tof danger every man
would be found at his post. But it is
unfortunately too true that in many
cases ships are manned by persons who
cannot-b called sailors, and who, when
an emergency which needs to be met by
Inteligence and character, confront
them, are swayed solely by the animal
instinct of serf-preservation.
, An unexpected obstacle In the way of
the claimants of sugir bounties has turn
ed up In the person of Comptroller of the
Treasury Bowler. That official has de
clared, says Bradstreet's, that he is In
doubt about the constitutionality of the
law. and that he .would like to hear
argument upon the question before
proceeding to act upon the claims. He
has set down Wednesday next as the
ciute for hearing argument on the claim
of one company. This action of the
comptroller has caused much surprise aud
criticism, It Is only fair to say, however,
that the extent of the power of the comp
troller does not seem to have been defi
nitely determined as yet, but that his
powers In regard to passing on claims
such as -those now before him are very
extenalvs Is recognised by those familiar
with administrative practice. Whether
any test of his power in the premises
will be made now, will probably depend
upon the result of his decision in the
sugar bounty cases; If he should decide
la favor of the constitutionality of the
law his action will probably be permitted
to pass without review.
Another illustration of Democratic in
consistency is furnished In the frantic
demand from certain Influential papers
to that party for Cleveland's re nomina
tion. If he Is nominated for a third term
as it no.w seems probable he will, the
Democratic newspapers of 1874 will fur
nish some delightful reading. It was in
lirs, as we tvtuvamat it, that one U'.yiic
Simpson Grant was running far a third
term, and every Democratic newspaper in
the Und f-lrty shrieked mason and mon
rchy In the face of every Grant man.
Let Mr. Cleveland run a third time and
the Republicans will have lots of fun in
pulling the old record of a certain sort of
Democrats on them.
The Toledo Blado says the biggest fish
story of this seusoa is found in the fact
that the catch of Columbia river salmon
ic worth two millions of dollars. The
Blade has been regarded for many years
as one of the most reliable papers In the
country, but it 1s sadly at fault in this
interesting item. We beg to correct our
veneraible friends by saying the salmon
catch of the Columbia river this season
Is already sold for considerably over
three millions of dollars and that, too.
In spite of the fact that one-third of the
canneries have been idle on account of
the low stage of water in the upper r.ver.
"SCIENTIFIC BANKING CURRENCY."
Let us cheer -up. Mr. Sovereign has de
pressed us somewhat by. his general order
boycotting the national banks, In which
the Knights of Labor are commanded to
assert the rights of labor by refusing tJ
accept national bank notes In poyment
for labor; and the possibility that the
reckkss and Ignorant Republican major
ity in the next congress may undertake
to legislate on :he currency question has
made many of us feel worse. For the
country has had tomi experience of Re-
DUblican financial .eiula lon. That qreau-
ful party cams Into power in 1861, when
the country was in the full enjoyment
of the ripe results of the Democratic ad-
nV.nlstratlon of the finances. It found the
country enjoying from 12 to 15 per cent
discount on Its own notes in the markets
of the world, with a bank note currency
varying In value from nothing up to the
face of it, and all of it so wedded to
the particular bank which Issued It that
It. iot homes.cn at tne distance or
hundred miies. and at a hundred and llfty
flew back with a snap that tilled with
astonishment the bold financiers that is
sued It. Every state had its own banks
of issue, and all that the citizens or
state had to do when they went away
from home was to take his own familiar
bank notes and buy real money w.th
them at a discount of from 5 to 60 per
cent, and then go away and have fun or
do business with It. Those were great
times, financially speaking. Every state
had plenty of money, and sometimes some
of It was worth as much as 40 or 60 ce.ts
on tha dollar. Then the Ignorant Ke
putflcans took hold of the finances. Pres
ently you could not buy a government
bond except at a prem.um and by the
substitution of greenbacks and national
bank notes for the state currency it was
made Impossible to get a current prom
ise to pay a dollar for less than lw cents.
The return of the Democrats to power
naiturally restored confidence that after
a little the old conditions would return.
In the buoyancy of feeling which resulted
the bonds of the government began to
seek the old Democratic level; the na
tional treasury showed s.gns or returning
Ho the cheerful condition of 1861; there
was a. wholesome reaction la the snap?
of a financial and commercial panic, end
laboring men all over the country who
had been obliged to take national bank
notes In large quantities in payment for
services were suddenly rVKeved of that
necessity. Then came a sudden blight.
The eletion of a Republican congress
aroused the suspicion that party which
had handled ithe finances for thirty years
with such untoward consequences wou.d
do something or attempt something, that
might interfere with the onward progress
upon which the whole country naa suiri
ed simultaneously with the return of the
Democracy to full power In the govern
ment. Nobody could tell what wouia nap-
pen with a Republican congress ana
Tom Reed m tne cnair.
But the wind has hlfted. Hope remains.
It now appears by a Washington dispatch
to the New York Times, in whicn tne
whole subject is treated with mucn
learnln and at srreut length, that
Mr. Reed will be embarrassed In the
selection of a chairman of the commit
ter on banklnir and currency; that this
embarrassment is likely to result In thi
failure of any attempt of these Ignor
ant and unscientific Reptfbllcons to tinker
the currency and that the end of it all
will be "the adoption of a scioruinc uaiiK-
Ir currencv" by the "next Democratic
congress. It seems a pity ithat the last
Democratic congress did not adopt this
scientific banking currency, for then, with
tL Democratic senate and a Democratic
executive all In accord, we should have
.had It fairs launched by this time.
Putting It off. oo, till the "next Demo-
eraHc congress" makes Its adoption
little remote; but the great comfort to be
derived from our neighbor's report on tne
sublect Is in the fact that the unscien
tific and Ignorant Iteptfbllcons will be
prevented by Mr. Reed's embarrassment
In aeCectlng his chairman for the banking
,n.l currency committee from interrupt
Ins1 the general course of the national
finances Initiated with the present ad
ministration. Let us all congTatutate our
selves on that. And the record or tne
Democratic Darty On all questions of
finance is so glorious, let us or, perhaps,
it m thtnk twice about it before we
pray for the coming of the "next Demo
cratic congress" to give us" a scientific
banking currency."
SENATOR JONES' UP 'AND DOWN
Millionaire One Day, Broke the Next,
but Always Happy.
The Clfe of Senator Jones of Nevada has
been a continued romance. One year he
Is a millionaire und .the next year he la
flat broke.
Today he has J100.000 to his credit; to
morrow he Is $50,000 poorer than when he
was born.
.Ha Is a really brilliant man. He has
a remarkable fund of useful Informa
tion, und he can make a good speech on
nv sublect with very little preparation,
He Is an Inveterate stock gambler and
always a bull.
At one .time about fifteen years sgo h
was worth $5,000,000. A severe streak of
bad luck followed and in two years he
was broke.
Durlntf his flush period he presented his
wife with $60,000 worth of diamonds.
When he reached the financial sero he
asked his wife to lend him the diamonds.
She did so. We sotd them and Invested
the troceed In mlnlnsr stocks. The ven
ture was lucky, and In less than a year
the $CO,fl0 increased to $500,000. He then
returned ithe diamonds to his wife, in
creased by 25 per cent. Jones Is inter
ested in mines in Nevada, California,
Arizona and Colorado.
Hit wealth Is now up In the millions
again. Rich or poor, Jones is always
happy. He is a firm believer in his own
luck. He Is a spirited, but not wise,
poker player.
He lost $,000 at one sitting at Tomb
stone, Arls.. and raked in IX.000 of Tom
Bowen's money the first week the latter
served m' the senate.
THE END OF PONIATOWSKI.
The Polish Bayard won his baton on
the Held of Legale. Oct. 16. ISIS. Thr-e
day later, while In command of the
rear guard during the French retreat, he
was, being already badly wounded,
drowned, or drowned hlmseif. In- the
Elster. His body was not recovered till
the 14th. M was then embalmed and In
terred in the tomb of Kosciusko. All
of which Is matter of history. Hut what
becime of the marshal's body during the
five days preceding its recovery is an
other matter.
'A .military police report, which has
lain pige.m-boled all these years It, sterns,
in the French wir tfn, snd which a
Parts paper of May XI prints for the
first time, establishes the fact that the
corpse was fished out of the river by a
local fishermarn, and that he. having a
shrewd Ides, that by reason of the rich
ness of the uniform It must be the corpse
of a person of consequence, arranged It
as an exhibition. The exhibition lasted
for the best part of those Ave days and
was so well attended that the exhibitor
took a sum of 60 florins by it. On the
fifth day, however, Potockl heard of this
show, recognized the body, and ransomed
It. He bad besides to pay 100 gohlen
frederick8 for the six rings the marshal
had upon him, the fisherman retaining
gold snuff-box. Notes and Queries.

RECOMPENSE.
So many sorrows had beset my way
I thanked God for the dying of the day.
The shadow gloomed above my hopeless
path.
And even lift's roses veiled thorns of
wrath.
So that I railed at fortune or at fate
When little feet came pattering to the
gate.
And lips that leaned to kiss me- sweetly
smiled.
And life seemed lovelier for a little child
O, truest love, that comforts In our need
Is It not writ, "A little child shall lead?'

The objections urged against Indio
in the past by the large numbers who
Otherwise wnnld hnvp hnan clnfl tn tnlr

been a lack of suitable accommoda

(From the San Francisco Argonaut.)
"In the heart of the great desert ol
the Colorado which the Southern Pa
cific road traverses there is an oasis
called Indio.which, in our opinion, li
the sanitarium of the earth. We be
lieve, from personal Investigation, that
for certain invalids, the-e Is no spot oi
ims planet so favorable.
G. T. Stewart, M. D., writes: "Tht
purity of the air, and the eternal sun
shine, fill one with wonder and delight
' ' Nature has accomplished sc
much that there remains but little for
man to do. As to its possibilities as a
heaJth resort, here Is the most pel
feet sunshine, with a temperature al
ways pleasant, a perfectly dry soil
for rain is an unknown factor; pure
oxygen, den?3 atmosphere and pure
water. What more can be desired?
It is the place, above all others, for
lung troubles, and a paradise for rheu
matlcs. Considering 'he number of
sufferers who have been cured, I have
no hesitancy in recommending this
genial oasis as the haven of the afflict
ed."

A GOOD WORD.
Mr. .1. J. Kell. Shaxpsburg, Pa,
Dear Sir" I am glad to say a good
word for Krause's Headache Capsules.
After suffering for over three years
with acute neuralgia and Its consequent
Insomnia ('vhlch seemed to baffle the
efforts of some of our best physicians)
you suggested this remedy which gave
me almost instant relief.' Words fail
to express the praise I should like to
bestow on Krause's Headache Capsules.
Gratefully lours,
MRS. E. U. HOLMES.
