FACTS TOR LABORING MEN, Will You Vote for This was a bimetallic country until Secretary Foster, under the Harrison administration, ruled that all government obligations where payable in gold on demand. That rulelng alone, not a law by congress, has put us on a gold basis. This policy war continued by the Cleveland administration and can not be disputed by the Republicans who have now made that their platform. If it is true, as they say, that a free silver coinage law would reduce us to the level of Mexican laborers surely, they cannot consistently deny that the present gold standard will leduce us to the condition of gold standard Europe. The lowest wages in Europe are paid In gold standard Italy and Spain where they pay from $1.50 to $6.60 per week and tho highest wages are paid In England running from $4.70 to $11 per week. While on a bimetallic basis in 1891 the average weekly wages paid in this country run from $8.88 to $21.18. Since going on a gold basis they have been steadily falling until now common laborers can be hired for 50 dents per day and carpcnters.who formerly received $3,are working in Salem today forJ31.50 or even less. Under a gold standard we can not hope to secure as good wages as are paid In England because more than half the gold of the world is owned in that country and loaned out to other countries, causing a steady stream of Interest to pour Into Great Britain and waking money plenty there. There Is more danger of our being Europeanlzed than Mexlconlzed and although raised a Republican we are willing to cast our lot with the American party, headed by Win. J. Bryan. MRS. B. LEVY, OF PORTLAND. Died in This City Very Suddenly Satur day Evening. About 10.45 p. in. Saturday Mrs. B. Levy, of Portland, died very suddenly at the home of F Levy, on Front street, with whom she was visiting at the time. Shortly after 10 o'clock Saturday evening, the family retired for the night. About a half hour later members of the family on hear ing a groan, rushed down stairs and out onto the front porch where Mrs. Levy was found apparently very 111. Dr. W. B. Morse was Immediately summoned but before he could arrive, the sufferer had expired, apoplexy be ing announced as the cause of her sudden demise. Her remains were taken to Port land on the Salem local Sunday morn ing where funeral arrangements will be completed. They were accompan ied by Mrs. Schmidt, also of Portland and a sister of tho deceased who was visiting in this city, Mr. and Mis. Sol. M. Stock and Mrs. F. Levy. The deceased leaves four children, her husband having preceded her to the grave about 18 months ago. The children are Messrs. Julius and J. B. Leyy, Mrs. J. D. Meyer and Mrs. L. Cohlentz all of Portland. Buy an Meetings. A people's mass meeting at Sclo was addressed by Comrade Stephens, (Peo.,) Hon. J. S. Smith, (Peo.,) W. R. Bilyeu, (Dem.,) and E. Hofer, (Am. silver,) on Satur day afternoon. Great enthusiasm prevailed and I, in n rfhinty silver men will give a good report of about 1,500 majority for the Bryan electors. On a show of hands not a voter out of 500 was willing to put up his hand and declare that he belloved we could ever get any bimetallism via Mark Hanna. W. S. Rlgdon speaks at Marlon Fri day evening. E. Hofer at Sublimity Saturday evening. Everywhere meet ings are being held and clubs organ ized. Fkom Coos. J. E. Adcox sends eight subscribers and says: "Things are moving nicely here. Only yester day an old soldier, and a Grand Army man, tore off his McKlnley badge and stamped it beneath his feet. 'He says that he Is not willing that his pos terity should be enslaved that ho might receive his pension of $12.00 per month In gold." "The Leader" Has Just received direct from a full lino of the celebrated Pans "Tre-21-3t fousse" kid gloves. Quickly Extinguished. About 4:30 Saturday afternoon tho fire de partment was summoned to Hanson & Landon's planing mill on south High street to put out a small blaze that had originated lna pile of slab wood. Tho blazo was immediately extin guished without nny serious damage to tho plant. His Fiftieth Annineusaiiy. It was Just fifty years ago Saturday, non. Frabrltus R.

Two Startted Horses Leap Over a Twenty Foot Precipice. A. M. Humphrey, proprietor of the Water Street Warehouse, has for some time been the proud possessor of a team of lively buckskin driving horses. Before taking another drive, Mr. Humphrey will be obliged to pur chase another animal since he lost one of his team Sunday. The team was taken from the barn to Water street and attached to a picket fence Just north of the ware house and Mr. Humphrey began to wash them with a hose. Becoming startled they backed upon the fence breaking the pickets off. This startled the animals more and retreating quite rapidly across the street went over the river bank before Mr. Humphrey could prevent them from so doing. At this point along the river the bank is about 20 feet high with vertical sides and as a result of the fall, one of the animals suffered a fracture of the leg and had to bo killed. The other horse, although badly bruised, will probably render as acceptable service In the future as in the past. As tho horses dashed over the em bankment they barely missed striking two of Mr. Humphrey's children who ! were standing on the river bank, ob serving the work being done by their father. New Indian Stories. The Star Publishing Co., Chicago, have nearly ready for publication a book or unique interest, entitled "Totem Tales," by W. S.Phillips. Mr. Phillips has spent many years among the Indian tribes of thePaciflc northwest, studying Into and gather ing up their legends and superstitions and hits accumulated a vast fund of material from which the forthcoming book is the first fruits. This mate rial in a few years it will be impos sible to collect, for with the advance 01 civilization ana education among the Indians, the trained story teller, who alone knows these legends and myths, and whose business it is to hand them down from father to son, Is fast becoming only a remembrance, and character or the past. Mr. Phillips is an artist as well as story teller, and has illustrated his book with nearly two hundred and fifty original drawings which are characteristic of the tales, showing up their wlerd superstitions, their pathos and their tragedy. The draw ings are above all thoroughly Indian. xne auuior uescnoes ti is dook as "Indian stories Indian told" and lie has preserved the quaint and simple Idioms of the original Indian story teller. The book will have an Interest for all lovers or stories and folk lore, whether young or old. Bridge Examined. Polk county's commissioner exam ined the west approach of the large steel bridge that spans the Willam ette at Salem. It is reported the commissioners made no provision whatever for the planking thereof (a portion on tho Polk county side, at least,) and the matter will prqbably be abandoned. Unless some Improve ments are made in tho near future, an accident entailing quite an expense to the two counties, will be chron icled. It seems strange that such an Important matter should not receive tho more careful consideration of our county officers. As In many other cases the familiar quotation "a stitch In time saves nine" is quite applica ble to the repairing needed on the big bridge. Tho now time schedule for the O. C. T. Co. steamer takes effect tomor row, leaving Salem Tuesday Thurs day and Saturday. The Altona has been taken off repainted and refitted for the winter run. The Leader Opening.

The subscriptions are coming In slowly, but as they are purely volun tary they show that there are still men In this hotbed of Rapubllcanism and bread-and-butter officialism who dare contribute to the cause of the people.

While the McKlnley campaign committee can hold up every banker and $5 to $500 out of every employe of the state, county and city government, this cause when won will owe the oftlce seekers and tax-eaters nothing.

We have still supplements with Bryan's speech of acceptance at New York and Mitchell on the Impossibility of In ternational Bimetallism. Elactric Bitters. Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more cenerallv needed when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal billious fevers. No medicine will act more surely in counteract ing and freeing the system from the malarial poison. Headache.
