there are 2,800,000 Socialists in Ger
many. A Socialist there is about
the same as a Populist here. The
world isn't going backward.
Having driven the 'heroic'Greeks
out of the province of Thessaly,
(which the great powers took from
Turkey and gave to Greece in 1878),
the sultan has agreed to an armis
tice pending negotiations for peace.
When the people discover that the
Dingley tariff bill is a measure that
has for its object the tying up of the
greenbacks and contraction of the
currency there will be more angry-
people in the United States than
when they discovered silver was de-
monetized in 1873.
Two leading Populist papers, the
Peoples Party Paper, of Atlanta, Ga.,
and the Missouri World, are taking
a coupon vote or referendum of
their readers regarding the Nash-
ville Conference. Up to May 12,
the P. P. P. vote was 151 for con-
ference, to o against; the World
vote was "16 to 1," for conference.
Now we're hearing from the people.
tariff legislation was directed to that
end. The Republican party has
gone Democratic on the tariff ques-
tion and the only difference between
Wilson and Dingley bills is in the
amount of revenue they will raise.
It is thought by authors of Dingley
bill that it will raise about one hun-
dred million dollars more revenue
than the Wilson bill. In other
words it is an indirect meth-
od of taxing the American consum-
ers one hundred millions more each
year than they were taxed under
Wilson bill. If you believe that all
that is necessary to be done to re-
store prosperity is to increase tax-
ation you have every reason to be-
lieve that the present administration
will restore it.
Cure Consumption.
T. A.SLOCUM. M.C., THEdREAT CHEMIST
and scientist. offers to send
ft ee to thv afflicted.three
hottles of his newly dis-
covered remedies to
cure consumption
and all luno
troubles.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan-
thropic, or carry more joy in iu wake
than the offer of T. A.SIocum. M. C.,of
OH Pine street. New York City.
Confident that he has discovered an
adsolute cure for consumption and all
pulmonary complaints, and to make its
great merits known, he will send, free,;
three bottles (the Slocum new system '
of raedieine) to any reader who is suf-
fering from chest, throat and lung
troubles or consumption.
He invites those desirlous of obtain-
ing the remedies to simply send hire
their ex press and postoffice address.and
receive in return the three free bottles.
Already this "new scientific course of
medicine" has permanently cured thou-
sands of apparently hopeless eases.
He considers it his religious dutv—a
duty which he owes to huminily—lo
donate his Infallible cure.
Offered freely, apart from its inherent
strength isenough to oommend it, and
more so is the perfect confidence of the
great chemist making the offer.
He has proven consumption to he a
curable disease beyond any doubt.
There will be no mistake in sending—
the mistake will be in overlooking the
Doctor's generous invitation. He has
on file in his American and European
Laboratories thousands of testimonials
of experience from ibone cured, in all
parts of the world.

a debtor nation can maintain the
gold standard is to make prices of
its products so cheap that creditor
nations will take its products to
satisfy obligations due them instead
of demanding gold payments. Oth-
er nations will take our products
when they can buy them cheaper
from us than elsewhere. Unless
the present administration devises
some method of contracting our
currency, thereby reducing prices of
all commodities not held up by-
trusts or combinations, our gold in
stead of our products will hasten
across the ocean to pay our interest
and our financiers will be in the
market to exchange more bonds for
gold to meet interest on foreign ob
ligations. Famine in foreign coun
tries would be about the only thing
that would prevent this contingency
happening. The amount of curren
cy in circulation now will keep the
prices of our products too high to
prevent our gold going abroad. In
order to maintain the present gold
standard our doctors must contract
our currency and they are now try
ing to do it under guise of a tariff
measure, just as they demonetized
silver in 1873 under guise of a pre
tended mint bill.

is preparing to fall back from its

more injurious to industry in this
country than monometalism as we
now endure it. Bimetalism with

Chicago platform means the imme-

greenback currency and also $200,-
