THE REASONS.
CD. Lane, one of the wealthiest
gold miners in California, and a
republican, in a response to a re
quest from the Cincinnati PoBt,
save tbe following ten reasons
why he favors the free coinage of
both gold and silver:
1. While my gold has double
purchasing power, outside of min
ing I cannot invest it anywhere
upon a falling market.
2. Under present conditions
production Elves no reward to
the producers.
3. With no profit to production
producers can give no wages to
labor, and tthe country is filling
no dangerously fast with idle
men.
4. Because with every man
driven to idleness protection to cap
ital grows leas.
5. Enforced idleness breeds
hatred of the suffering masses
against the few who have means.
6. Because the workingmen of
' America are brought into unjust
competition with the laborers of
the silver countries.
7. Because the whole continent
south of us needs vitalizing with
American brains, muscle and such
vast amounts of money that no
mineB can supply it fast euough.
8. Because through the grow
ing poverty of the humbler pro
ducers, like the farmers, their
morals are becoming tainted, and
crimes are increasing alarmingly
9. Because I believe the Al
mighty made no mistake when he
placed silver in the hills.
10. Because I love my country
and believe I would do better my
self if my fellow men could be
made prosperous, which they are
not now.
In 1888 the republican national
platform declared: "The republi
can party is in favor of the use of
both gold and silver as money, and
condemns the policy of tbe demo
cratic administration in its efforts
to demonetize silver." In 1892 the
republican national platform de
clared: "The American people,
from tradition and interest, favor
bimetallism, and the republican
party demands the. use of both gold
and silver as standard money.
That is to say, the republican who
this year supports the silver candi
date does not violate tbe teachings
of his own party in the past. He
is notleavinghis party. His party
left him when at St. Louis, it de
clared: "We are therefore opposed
to the free coinage of silver, except j
by international agreement
and until such agreement can be
obtained, the existing gold stand
ard must be preserved." C mi
lls Times.
Political parties in their enthu
siasm for their cause, olten do
things that ought to be left un
done. This is frequently seen in
parades. But the most uncalled
for and cruel thing yet done, to
our knowledge, was a drawing
carried in the republican proces
sion at Albany some time ago, in
which the old soldiers who in
tended to 'otc for Bryan wore
represented as skulking behind
stumps in time of war. Had this
been in a democratic parade, a
very just howl would have been
beard all over the land. The
honored veterans of many hard
fought battles march in the pro
cession behind such a cruel insult
to their comrades. We hope no
democrat, whatever the provoca
tion, will ever so grossly insult the
gray haired soldiers of the nation,
The Bheriff of Yamhill county
who pledged himself to take the
office and run it without deputy
hire, and was elected on those con
ditions, finds it was a losing
game. He put in his deputy bills
to the county court, which the
court refused to allow. The sheriff
appealed to the circuit judge.
claiming the statute fixed the
amount of deputy hire as well aB
the salary to which his office is
entitled, and denying the juris
diction of the county court The
judge construed the Btatute, the
jurisdiction of the county court
was upheld and Mr. Sheriff will
have to foot bis own bills. Never
buck another man's game, is a
good maxim to follow.
Ex-Senator Dolph has been
roundly abused by popocratic
papers fur alleged blasphemy, in
telling a story in a recent speech,
not suiting his political enemies.
It was to the effect that during the
Charlston earthquake, a negro was
heard to offer up the following
prayer: "Good Lawd, come and
belpu-i. Oh, come now! And come
yo'self, Lawd; 'taint no time fo
"boys." The incident did really
happen and Senator Dolph got it
from E. Benjamin Andrews in his
"History of the Last Quarter
Century," published in Soribner's
in January, 1896.
Our republican friends at the
democratic parade on last Satur
day c'aim to be much disappoint
ed at what they saw and beard.
Very likely, for the crowd was
i tremendous, the enthusiasm was
retnarkible and tbe speaker show
ed no signs of anarchy much to
the surprise and disappointment
of many who hoped to be able to
find in this demonstration much
with which to taunt the supporters
of Brvan.
The Cincinnati Enquirer reports
that eighty Union veterans acted
as Bryan's body guard at St. Paul,
and the record don't show that
they ever hid behind stumps to
escape hostile bnllets.
DOQS IN CLOTHES.
to Paris U Itaat Dots tull, Carrjf
Datmlba.
No matter what the dress may be, the
indispensable companion of the woman
who walla la her little dog. Bhort
baired terrier or long-haired toy, it is
of no moment, provided that It be very
tiny.
At the moment It U, perhaps, the ter
rier which is the most popular, u he
furnishes a farther excuse for the ex
hibition of fur in that his smooth coat
does not appear to his kind hearted mis
tress a sumcient proteetion from the
cold of this season of the year.
So the HtUo dog has his tailor as well
as his owner, and Ledouble, of the
Palais Boval, may be called the Worth
of the kennel. With garments of vel
vet, trimmed with fur, or of cloth strap-
sutcbed and embroidered, the olothing
of the little creature harmonizes with
that of his possessor.
Some ladies provide mackintoshes for
their pets for rainy days, and have them
made with a full bood, which covers the
ears. Others there are who choose tar
tan, having points turned back at the
shoulders and fastened with a strap
around the body. Fur thorn.1 believed to
be particularly chilly, the coats are
provided with collars of quite Medici
style, and are lined throughout with
Astrakhan, nutria, or even beaver, ss
these short furs are not too cumbrous
for the petted animals. -
There are some which actually have
umbrellas of dark blue silk, which they,
have been taught to carry quite straight
and steadily between their teeth in the
event of a sudden shower.
They are also provided with handker
chiefs in cases of accidents, a tiny pock
et in which to carry these being placed
on one side of the coat.
These handkerchiefs, adds the Paris
correspondent of the London Daily
Qraphic, are found useful when madamc
stops a f ew minutes at the confection
er's, and can wipe her pet's nose and
paws after his share in the delicacies
she buys.
BANANA8 IN A BLIZZARD.
Cambtaatlna Wbtah Eiclu Ihi RUlbul
tlM of Sum 8UM Hallway Men.
Two Italians were trudging down the
street-car tracks under the South side
elevated road in Chicago during the
blizzard the other day. (ireat clouds of
snow were swept by them by the wind,
so that half the time they were invisible
or only dimly outlined two blocks '
away. The tracks were covered faster
than the sweepers could clear them
and the cars had a time of it in getting
along. Each Italian had a huge basket
of bananas on his head, protected from
the unfriendly elements by a piece of
oilcloth, and trudged along in the teeth
of the blast as serenely as if he were un
der the skies of Italy, and the howling
northwester was a summer zephyr from
summer seas.
An employe of the street car compa
ny, a strapping big fellow witn seven
league boots on, faced about for a mo
ment to let his back stand the brunt of
the storm for awhile, and in doing so
caught sight of the two banana mer
chants. Immediately his half-frozen
features relaxed into abroad grin,. and,
turning to the other men who were
at work with him, he shouted:
"Say, boys' look st them Eyctalians
with their banana. I guess we aint
got no kick comin'. "
All the men joined in the laugh, and
after a few moments returned to their
work much relieved by this little diversion.
