Prof. Hamilton, Like Many Other Gold-
ites, Talks Fancy, Not Facts.
EpiTor WATCHMAN :(—The recent speech
in Philipsburg by Prof. Hamilton, of State
College, caused much boasting among gold-
ites, but the spurts of criticism in our local
papers seem to strike the yellow bugs so se-
verely that we conclude to reveal our opin-
ion of his errors through a medium nearer to
him.
The Professor started with the gigantic as-
sumption thatsilver was not demonetized in
1873. The Standard dictionary defines the
word demonetize thus: ‘To deprive of its
character as standard money,” and it dis-
tinctly states that ‘‘our own country demone-
tized silver.”” If our standard money now
is both gold and silver, what does the Re-
publican platform mean when it declares
that ‘‘the existing gold standard must be
preserved ?’ Can we have an ‘existing gold
standard,” while silver also is standard mon-
ey, or was the St. Louis Republican conven-
tion drunk or crazy when they adopted their
. gold standard plank ? Does a man holding
the high title of professor not know the mean-
ing of plain English words, or does he pre-
sume that five national parties and even in-
ternational conferences are composed of ver-
itable fools when they base their platforms
and declarations upon that which he pro-
claims a myth?
He said ‘““No one ever lost a cent by reason
of the act of 1873.” We are exporting over
37 million dollars worth of silver bullion per
year. Is 47 cents on every dollar's worth not
aloss? Then ask yourself or your neighbor
how much he lost on trade dollars? We dare
not take space to mention indirect losses.
After the Prof. thought he had obliterated
the crime of 1873 he assumed from the false
premises thus erected that we now have a
higher per capita of currency than at any for-
mer time, while the fact is that only gold
counts in international business. Even
among our own citizens, our officials, unlike
those of any other country, discriminate
against the silver dollar which he declared
over and over was not demonetized, and
they redeem our own treasury notes and
greenbacks in gold.
Why is this if silver is not demonetized ?
Will the Professor tell us ? :
Do our highest officials believe that our
silver dollars are standard money when they
thus discriminate against them ?
The Professor said : ‘‘The silver dollar is
good, because Congress says so.” This is
true in theory, but when Secretaries FOSTER
and CARLISLE surrender the option to the
creditor to demand gold, it is not true in
practice. One of his proofs that silver had
not been demonetized was that 50 times as
much had been coined since as prior to 1873.”
In this he forgot that it is free access to the
mints for all gold bullion that constitutes
free coinage of gold, and that the same is
true of silver. Silver bullion has not enjoy-
ed such free access to the mints since 1873.
He compared the price of wheat, etc., in
1891 with the prices in 1895 and argued that
the fall of prices in the interval was due to
the SHERMAN silver law of 1890, and the fall
of price «began in 1892, after Secretary Fos-
TER had begun redeeming our own coin
notes in gold, and that in 1893-4 prices, in-
cluding silver bullion, kept falling, although
the McKINLEY tariff was still in force, but
the SHERMAN law was repealed and India
closed her mints.
President HARRISON, in his message, ad-
mitted that it was the money legislation of
1890 and 1893 that affected the prices at that
time. If it was tariff why should prices be
up only in 1891 and down before that date
and immediately after? It is well known
that prices, generally, including silver, fell
rapidly during the last three years under the
McKINLEY tariff. This is shown by govern-
ment statistics. It is also shown in the
“statistical abstract of the United States for
1895,” page 83, that Prof. HAMILTON mis-
represented the facts when he quoted from a
document, the author of which he failed to
give, to the effect that the WiLsox tariff had
turned the balance of trade against us. Ac-
cording to * The Abstract’’—the highest au-
thority extant—the years 1894 and 1895, the
only years reported under the WILsox bill
show an excess of exports over imports averag-
ing over 156 million dollars for each of the
two years, while from 1860 to 1894, under
Republican tariff 17 out of the 34 years show
a balance in mercantile trade against us. It
is true that the interest coupons from bonds
held abroad, added to the imports of goods
that yearly come against us, overbalance our
exports of goods at present, but this is due to
low prices of goods under the gold standard
and not to the slight reduction of tariff rates.
This can be demonstrated with mathematical
precision, thus: Supposing our exports now
to be $800,000,000 per year and our imports
$650,000,000, which in round numbers ap-
proaches the correct amount of our com-
mercial trade under the WiLsoN bill. But
the yearly interest against us is estimated at
$200,000,000, and when we add this to the
$650,000,000 of imports we have against usa
total of $850,000,000. Deduct from this the
$800,000,000 of exports and it throws against
us a balance of fifty million dollars.
Now, under the well known law of supply
and demand which according to political
economists regulates the value of both money
and property, in proportion to their quantity
or supply as compared with the demand for
them, it is evident that an increase in the
quantity of standard money as compared
with the amount of business will raise the
prices of articles éxchangeable for money.
Therefore if by doubling our standard money
under free coinage of gold and silver we
double the value of our exports and imports,
the former will amount to $1,600,000,000 and
the latter to $1,300,000,000. Now add to the
doubled imports, the interest coupons which
by previous contract have become . fixed
charges and hence are still $200,000,000, and
we have against us $1,500,000,000 which sub-
tracted from the $1,600,000,000 of exports
leaves $100,000,000 in our favor instead of
$50,000,000 against us as is now the case on
account of low priced goods and high priced
dollars resulting from the present gold
standard.
There is therefore no foundation in truth
for the declaration of Prof. HAMILTON that
the WILSON tariff has thrown the balance of
trade against us. Another point against
HAMILTON'S assertion that the silver dollar
as good as ever, is the fact that the act of
187%
in gold, which is an actual forfeit of the con-
stitutional right of congress to ‘‘coin money
and regulate the value thercof.”” In view of
this the Professor's-thrust at Bryan's ignor-
ance of the constitution was ill timed, for
how can congress régulate the value of mon-
ey when it forfeits its right to say which kind
of its coin shall be legal tender ?

Small Gains Made by Gold Bugs in Connecticut.
HARTFORD, Conn., Oct. 5.—Town elec-
tions were held in all the 168 tovens in the
State with the exception of Hartford, New
Haven, Bridgeport, Ansonia, Derby and
Nautatuck. Returns show that the Re-
publicans have made small gains over a
year ago.
In Hartford county, in 1895, the towns
stood : Republicans, 17; Democrats, 4 ;
divided, 7. Returns show that the Repub-
licans have gained three towns and the
Democrats have lost one, five being divided.
Middlesex county shows 12 Republican
towns against 8lost year. In two towns
national Democratic tickets were voted for.
It is probable that the complete returns will
show that the Republicans have gained at
least 15 towns.
——J. T. Rothrock, state forestry gom-
missioner, in referring to the observan¢e of
Arbor day, on Friday, October 23d, gives a
list of the trees that ought to be planted in
Pennsylvania. Among them are the white
pine, red cedar, yellow pine, bald cypress,
white cedar, spruce, hemlock, white oak,
chestnut, hickory, locust, rock oak, sugar
maple, beech, birch, cherry and black oak.
Prof. Rothrock says that the supply of
some of these trees is pitifully scarce in
the State, and where formerly there were
many of them there are now practically
none. Somebody says that the man who
makes two blades of grass grow where one
grew before is a public benefactor, and the
same may be said of the man who plants
trees.
All Through Brush Valley.
Mr. Hillibish, of Snyder county, is visiting
Miss Sallie Harter.
Jared Kreamer and wife were in Rebers-
burg, Sunday and Monday.
Candidate Cronister was well satisfied with
his visit to our valley last week.
Col. J. L. Spangler will speak at Rebers-
burg next week. Look for the posters.
Samuel Wait sold his store and home to our
merchant Miller. He will go to farming.
The Methodists at Kreamerville are hav-
ing revival services under the charge of Rev.
Faus.
You should have seen our ‘‘yellar” bugs
changed into a silver white color last Satur-
day evening under Mitchell’s rays!
This ip substance is what one of our silver
standard bearers, Jas. K. Moyer, wrote in're-
ply to the circular sent him by Singerly :
“That he committed the unpardonable sin of
his life when he voted for him for governor
in 1894; and he was too sorry he was out the
year’s subscription to the Record as he no lon-
ger cared to read it.”
WEDDING BELLs.—Last Thursday, while
our Democrats were busily engaged in look-
ing to see if there were any Republicans in
town to hear Reeder, Harter and Coburn, a
ceremony was consummated that created no
little surprise. An intimation had been giv-
en of it by the marriage license in the Centre
Democrat but the contracting parties, Edwin
S. Bierly and Miss Sallie Ehrhart, both of
Rebersburg, escaped the investigators and
were well on their way to Spring Mills and
Rev. Faus, the Methodist minister. The
bride’s maid, Miss Sallie Harter, who had
been taken along, did not become aware of
the nature of her trip and honor until the wed-
ding ceremony was began and then she shed
many tears. ‘The only brother of the groom
was not appraised of the wedding until fifteen
minutes before the start, then the permit was
placed before him with the question, ‘‘Was
denkst fun sellem.” The Spring Mills boys
were telephoned the news, but they only tied
two knots in the whip, and the Rebersburg
boys were left entirely in their serenading
efforts. May the wedding journey be long,
sweet and happy.
THE DEMOCRATIC MEETING.—Addressed
by Ira Mitchell, Esq., at Rebersburg, last
Saturday evening, certainly was a success,
it having been the greatest and most power-
ful held in our valley for years. Many could
not even find standing room. Republicans
were present and nearly all the gold Demo-
crats, who were severely criticized and
exposed. To say that Mr. Mitchell disposed
of all the Republican arguments (?) to the
complete satisfaction of all unbigoted minds,
would be giving an account of but little of
his address. The speaker gave such un-
excelled arguments which he substantiated by
citations from ancient, medieval and modern
history that he could not be contradicted.
Mr. Mitchell is a scholar and a student of the
World’s history, and the man who ventures
to argue against the Bellefonte Gladstone un-
dertakes what no man in central Pennsyl-
vania can do. He spoke two hours, yet many
said that they could have listened the whole
evening. In short Brushvalley cannot suffi-
ciently express its praise of this address
which will be long remembered by our peo-
ple as the master speech of 1896. There were
many ladies present and the music was ren-
dered by our violin, mandolin, and guitar
club whose selections were highly enjoyed
and greatly applauded,
The Republicans ‘‘grand rally,” last Thurs-
day evening, at Rebersburg, was a political
bluff. Three-fourths of the audience were
Democrats and only about half the number
of Republicans in the township were present.
Mr. Reeder, the first speaker, who was ex-
pected to say something, could not even give
the usual ‘points’ except in a very highly,
putrefacted state. He either knows but
little himself or of the Rebersburg commu-
nity. . In fact, the Republicans themselves
were ashamed by his narration of stories in
regard to what Democrats believe about free
silver. Joel Doebler says Reeder told many
lies. Mr. Tom Harter, the second speaker,
of Snyder county characteristics and Boon-
aschtiel fame, who has written such a true(?)
account in his paper of the Furst and White-
head debate, gave the audience his usual series
of highly unpolished jokes which consumed
most of the time. His speech, which he said,
was not for instruction but for correction, pro-
duced only physiological effects for many reas-
ons. And because he made a personal request
not to be “‘roasted too hard’’ in our report we
shall stop at once by stating. what he said :
“The Republican party is your huckleberry.
Mr. Coburn, the third and last speaker, after
giving an exhortation as he always does, took
up the Mexican dollars which is continually
haunting him. [n his address he called all
silver Democrats ‘‘populists, anarchists,
rogues’ etc. That is all hesaid. It would
have been much better if our Republican
brethren would not have had a meeting, for
what this trio said and by Mitchell following,
made a great contest and made these poor
speakers almost ridiculous. The violin,
mandolin and guitar club rendered very fine
music which was vigorously applauded.
Pine Grove Mention.
Mrs. D. H. Fry is visiting her sister, Mrs.
Mason, at McKeesport.
Last Tuesday night burglers entered Ed.
Bubb’s residence by a back window and
carried away a silver yatch.
Last week D. L. Dennis sold his farm,
located one and a-half miles north of this
place, to Mr. A. Waite, of Rebersburg.
Aunty Musser is snugly located at the
home of Wm. Roush, on Main street, where
hex wants will be looked after in the best
possible manner.
Dr. L.C. Thomas, of Latrobe, enjoyed
a short leave of absence from his lucrative
practice by visiting his native heath here.
He was the guest of his sister, Mrs. Maggie
Gates, of Water street.
Our farmers are gathering the largest crop
of apples ever kifbwn in this section. Potatoes
are not so plenty@as last year and corn is but
an average yidld. Threshers report the
lighiest crop of Wheat in many years, but a
wonderfully big crop of oats.
After a two weeks visit with friends here,
Mrs. Amanda Guthrie and her two children
returned to their home in Osceola on Wed-
nesday. She was Miss McMahon and her
husband was killed on the cars leaving her
with little means except her home.
DEATH OF PETER WEBER.— On the 8th
the venerable Peter Weber, one of Boals-
burg’s best known and most useful citizens,
{ died at his home in that place after several
years of suffering with kidney trouble. Never
did man see the approach of death more
philosophically. He accepted without a
murmer the ills and inconveniences of old
age and looked forward longingly to the life
promised to the faithful. He was a man who
was respected by his neighbors, loved by his
children and revered by his associates.
‘He was born near Frankfort on the Rhine
more than 85 years ago. Coming to this
country when a boy he learned the trade of
cabinet making in Philadelphia and Pitts-
burg. Returning to the town of Dauphin he
made that his home until he was 46
years of age. Then he removed to Boalsburg
where he conducted a cabinet making and
undertaking establishment until a few years
ago when he was succeeded by his son F. W,
All his life he did what he could to help his
fellow man and, as the end drew near, real-
izing that his Heavenly Father's promises
were about to be fulfilled, he called his chil-
dren to his bedside and lovingly admonished
them to do right. A life long member of the
Reformed church as long as his health would
permit he was always in his place in the
sanctuary. In politics he was just as faithful
to the principles of Jackson and Jefferson and
seldom missed an election. Few men of any
community have so many good traits and so
few faults and Boalsburg will miss him
greatly.
To his invalid and aged wife we offer our
sincere sympathy. What is our loss is his
gain and the separation will only be for
a short time. His ¢hildren are John H.,
Jacob, Fred, Samuel, Anna, Mrs. Henry
Meyers, all of Boalsbarg and Peter, of Hunt-
ingdon. He was buried in the Boalsburg
cemetery on the 10th at four o'clock. Rev.
A. A. Black officiated and the large attend-
ance at the funeral showed the high esteem
in which the old patriarch was held by his
neighbors ‘and friends. ~ E

Our farmers are still busy making cider
and picking winter apples. Of the latter
there is an abundant of crop.
We still have some petty thieving going on
in this section. Mr. Thomas Weston had
about two bushels of onions taken out of his
barn a few nights ago and rumor has it that
the scent of them was so strong that you
could almost tell who had taken them.
Miss Keziah Denning, who has been con-
fined to her bed for some time, with cancer,
is not improving any as a result of recent
treatment at the hospital. We are sorry that
such is her condition, but she is perfectly re-
signed to the will of Him who doeth all
things for the best.
Rev. E. T. Ott, who has resided at this
place for the last two years, having been
transferred by the late conference of the U.
B. church, to the Coalport charge, packed
his goods this week and moved his family to
his new field of labor. We are sorry to lose
the reverend gentleman, as he was a fine
neighbor.
The public schools in this township have
all been in session for a week, with the ex-
ception of two. Miss Maggie Williams, one of
the teachers has been quite ill with
typhoid fever, at her sister's home, at
Ramey, Clearfield county. She had gone
there on a visit when she was taken ill and
her sister, Ida, has been unable to start her
school owing to her attendance being re-
quired by her sick sister. It is tobe hoped
that Miss Maggie will soon be able to resume
her duties .
Happily Wedded.
A very pretty wedding took placc at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Kline, two
miles west of Fillmore, on Wednesday,
October 7th. It was the marriage of their
eldest daughter, Miss Margaret, to George
Bailey, of Altoona.
At nine o’clock the guests began to arrive
‘and by the time of the arrival of the hour for
the service there were twenty-eight present.
At 11 o’clock the blinds were drawn and the
lamps lighted so that the interior was trans-
formed into a veritable fairy land. The
bridal party entered at once. First were
Miss Annie Kline, sister of the bride, and
Calvin Bailey, brother of the groom. They
took positions at the end of the parlor and at
either side of a dainty floral arch. Then
came the bride and groom to be. They were
met by Rev. A. A. Black, of Boalsburg, and
under the arch and surrounded by potted
plants they were made man and wife.
The bride wore a blue gown, trimmed in
cream, and carried white chrysanthemums.
Her maid was gowned in grey trimmed with
green and carried chrysanthemums, also.
Both-gentlemen wore conventional black.
After congratulations had been tendered a
delicious wedding breakfast was served.
The table was artistically decorated and
all enjoyed the feast. Later the bride
and groom left for a few day’s tour and re-
turned to reside in Altoona, where the groom
had a house already furnished for his bride.
