JAMES SCHOFIELD, 3-37 BELLEFONTE, PA. t | Demarai Bellefonte, Pa., Sept. I, 1899. Dingley Tariff and Gold Standard. 1 notice in nearly all the Republican pa- pers articles that are intended to impress upon the mind of the people, the foolish and unfounded idea, that the Dingley Tar- iff and single Gold Standard are the cause of more work and better wages as well as the increase in the price of production. A little reflection on the part of any unpreju- diced mind should reveal the fact that this whole scheme is a pretentious fake. The tariff, high or low, never gave prosperity or caused a depression in the business of the country. The simple fact that we are importing and exporting more merchandise now, under the high tariff as they call it, than we did under a lower tariff, should be sufficient proof that it is not the tariff, for if it was foreign countries would have to reduce their laborers wages in order to find a market for their surplus merchan- dise. But such is not the case. We do not have to depend on newspapers to get out causing the least increase in their If Congress wishes to protect labor let them enact a law prohibiting the in- flux of foreign paupers and criminals, as well as foreign transient labor which comes, and in many instances is imported into this country, in order to keep down the wages of our free-born and naturalized citizens. High tariff only protects the capitalists combines and trust companies. ican laborer whether naturalized or free- in every instance. Capitalists form: combines and trust com- panies for the express purpose of raising the price of consumption and lowering the In order to accom- plish this end so as to satisfy their greed for boodle and wealth they spend millons of dollars for campaign purposes that they may be represented, in the legislative halls, by men who will legislate in the interest of their particular business. born are the price of production. sell to the easier it is to keep up the there in the country the less they will have to pay for production, and the less they have to pay for production the more profit i much higher tariff. In branches of industries in this country shall derive a benefit by this high protective tariff there must necessarily be good profits There must be high prices for raw material, a high profit for the gathering-in merchant of raw material, the facts concerning foreign labor. Letters direct from friends and acquaintances who went back to England on account of work | being so dull in this country, tell us that they make. Now with these truths before our eyes is it reasonable to suppose that these capitalists, combines, and trust com- panies, would be so disinterested in their own welfare that they will spend millions dagen have greatly increased and work | ot dollars to secure a law that will compel is more plentiful in that country since the | themselves to pay higher wages for labor ?

These politicians also make a great many believe that high tariff stops one-half more of foreign goods being imported into If this is true how are they going to double the amount of revenue from less than half the amount of imports, especially when the Republican high tariff is not twice as high as the Democrat low tariff?

Let us give another illustration and see if these politicians, who so vigorously vin- dicate high tariff, are not deceived or else ave trying to deceive the American laborer.

For when all these high profits would cost of our manu- factured articles it would force the price up as high if not higher in proportion than they were before, and thus counterbalance this high tariff, so that our American im- porters of foreign merchandise could well afford to pay this high duty and import just as much merchandise as they did.

I hope these limited remarks on this subject will be sufficient to convince anyone of the absurdity of the tariff as it is manipulated by the politician. We will now turn our attention to an- other fake and one of the silliest humbugs that was ever forced upon the people of this country. Yet there are a great many people of learning, experience, and in- fluence, who believe or at least pretend to believe that it is the harbinger of prosperi- I have seen some of them (who even belong to the orthodox Christian church) stand up before an audience and seemingly without the least compunction of conscience try to impress upon the minds of their hearers this direful absurdity. I allude to the single gold standard. I feel] at liberty to make the assertion that there is not one dollar in circulation that is based on a sin- gle gold standard. Just read the face of the notes in circulation and be convinced that the assertion I have made is true. There are only three kind of notes in circulation at present, neither has there been more during this present administration. The first to be considered is the Greenback (United States notes) which are based on or | the credit of the country, (land and pro- duct). They are legal tenders for all debts public and private except duties on imports or interest on public debt. The next is the Treasury notes based on coin which is bimetallism (Gold and Silver) and you cannot compel the banker to give you gold for them. The third and greatest in circu- lation are based on a Single Silver Stand- ard, one, two or five silver dollars are de- posited to redeem these notes. If you get these notes redeemed in silver dollars you cannot use them to any better advantage than you can the paper notes. You cannot pay import duties or interest on public debt with them. Ex-President Benjamin Harrison in one of his great campaign speeches in 1896 said that “‘the government has issued these silver dollars on its own account not for the mine owner and it has pledged its sacred honor that it would make every one of them as good as a gold dollar.’ He also said in the same speech that he would tell them what this govern- ment could do alone. He said, ‘‘It can fix its money unit. It can declare by law what shall be the relative value of an ounce of gold and an ounce of silver but it cannot make that last declaration good.”” That is it can declare by law that if it stamps its fiat, or government signature, upon a gold dollar it will maintain its value at 100 cts. a | ‘But if it doesdeclare by law and stamps of | its fiat or government signature upon a sil- ver dollar it cannot maintain its value at 100 cents. of He also said ‘‘he would notgive a gold dollar for 201bs of sugar he would take the gold dollar to a broker and get two silver dollars for it and get the 201bs of sugar and would have one silver dollar left. If he was a banker he would do no such a thing. He would deposit the gold dollar as a basis and get six paper dollars and get the 201be of sugar and have five dollars left.”” John Sherman in his great speech at Columbus, Ohio, August 15th, 1896 said that ‘‘al- though silver bullion declined in market value the coins made from it have been kept at par with gold coins at the legal ra- tio of 16 to 1. But ‘‘if free silver coinage of | is authorized then the market value of il. ver bullion becomes the standard for pay- ments on all contracts of the past the pre- sent or the future.” Does he not think that {the silver mine owners would be of | “green” to sell silver bullion at 50 or 60 cents per ounce when the government would coin it and give them $1.29 for it. But the ‘‘gold bugs’’ say that the govern- ment will not get any of this $1.29 that it will go to the silver mine owner. Now how much does the government get out of the $20.64 that the gold mine owners get per ounce for their bullion. The govern- ment does not own the gold bullion any a | more than they do the silver bullion. In- dividuals and corporations own all the bul- a lion. And if the government wants any it bas to buy it. Mr. Sherman also said that “‘this silver is delivered to the owner of the bnllion, and is not supported by the fiat of the government.” He said the govern- ment does not undertake to maintain its relative value with gold that the govern- ment just stamp it ‘this is a dollar.” Now I would like to know whether the capital- ists and government officers are the gov- ernment or are the people the government. If the people are the government then the people by their representatives will stamp the silver dollar. And the people (the gov- ernment) will redeem it at its full face value whenever presented. Jas. S. COLBURN. ( Concluded next week.) More Bachelors Than Maids. Unmarried Men Are More Numerous Than Are Sin- qle Women. It appears the people generally are great- ly mistaken in their notion that there is an enormous surplus of unmarried wonien in this country. The truth is that no such excess of spinsters exists; in fact, it is quite the other way, the bachelors outnum- bering the maidens. At the present mo- ment there are in the United States 2,200,- 000 more unattached males than females similarly situated, the exact figures being 5,427,767 bachelors against 3,224,494 spin- sters of ages from 20 years up. Thus it is obvious that if girls do not find husbands, it is not for lack of a plentiful supply of the article. What is required, seemingly, is a general migration of spinsters from the North and East to the great and growing West, in parts of which therc are ten avail- able men for every maid. From the last remark, however, it must not be inferred that there is actually an ex- cess of unmarried women in the Northern and Eastern States. Even in those parts of the country there are more bachelors than spinsters 20 years old and upward, notwithstanding the theory to the contrary so widely accepted. No State in the Union has as many maidens as bachelors—not even Massachusetts, where the figures are 219,255 spinsters, against 226,085 bachelors. Massachusetts is the banner State for spin- sters, the bachelors outnumbering them by only two-tenths of 1 per cent. Next comes Rhode Island, where the excess of bachelors is 2 per cent. The excess of bachelors in the District of Columbia is 8 per cent., in North Carolina 9 per cent., in New Hamp- shire 9 per cent., in Connecticut 20 per cent., in Maine 37 per cent., and in Ver- mont 54 per cent. In Maryland the bachelor surplus is 19 per cent., in New Jersey it is 22 per cent., in New York it is 26 per cent., and in Virginia it is 22 per cent. All of these are low percentages, so far as the superiority of bachelors in point of numbers is concerned. Augustine Daly’s Bible. The Most Expensive Volume Put Together. Augustine Daly’s Bible will be one of the rare books which the world will talk about a century hence. Henry Blackwell, who mounted all the pages, arranged the plates and bound the forty-two volumes in- to which the original one expanded, tells the story of how Mr. Daly collected the material for the work. He spent many years in collecting etchings, prints, engrav- ings and drawings illustrative of the bibli- cal text. In the end he secured over 8,000 of such illustrations and then gave them unassorted to Mr. Blackwell to arrange in harmony with the text to which they refer- red. Mr. Blackwell estimates that he spent 1,800 hours in merely assorting the material. A part of this work compelled him to read the Bible four times. The text which he followed was the Douia ver- sion, and the edition taken was the one printed in Dublin something over a century ago. Two copies were used, because every page had to be mounted hy itself on special paper so that one side of each leaf was lost. Some of the pages were soiled. In order to clean them Mr. Blackwell took the book apart, boiled each page as clothes are boil- ed, ther hung them on the line to dry. They came out of his process spotless, and then came the work of mounting and bind- ing. They were bound in forty-two vol- umes, with half white levant with vollum sides. The Gospel of Matthew takes three or four volumes, and the Lord’s prayer one entire volume. The latter contains the Lord’s prayer in 15) languages. The work cost Mr. Daly all of $125,000. ——Up to the 11th of August the nam- ber of pension claims filed for ailments and disabilities contracted during the Spanish- American war and subsequent military operations was 16,986. Claims are being received daily and the aggregate will be greatly augmented by the continuance of the campaign in the Philippines. The an- nual report of the commissioner for this year shows a decrease in the peusion list, the first time in over 30 years, as 34,345 of those who fought in the civil war have died in the past twelve months. This decrease, however, will soon be overcome by the al- lowance of claims arising from the war with Spain, as the number applying in the past year equalled half of the veterans who died. The conflict in the Philippines is destined to swell the pension list beyond former records. Army officers who have served in those islands estimate that fully 80 per cent of the soldiers sent there must return with pensionable disabilities.— Venango Spectator. Risked Life to Save Mill. Lightning Struck Oil Tank and Employee Cut Off Sup- ply, Preventing Explosion. During the thunder storm at Harrisburg on Saturday night ‘‘Jack’’ Downs, a'far- nace superintendent at the Pennsylvania Steel Works at Steelton, performed a re- markable feat. The oil tank that feeds the furnaces is in turn fed from a pipe that extends to the line pipe a mile across the river, and the oil in the tank is kept as low as possible. During the storm lightning struck the tank and set the oil on fire. Downs, who saw it clambered up the tank, heedless of dan- ger, and despite the cries of the workmen, and shut off the flow of oil from the feed pipe and the fire died out before enough gas could generate to cause an explosion. It was a most daring deed, and if it had failed there would have been a serious ex- plosion and great wrecking of property. ——*““Gur-ruls are niver satisfied,’’ mus- ed the janitor philosopher. ‘‘Whin they are in short skirts they are crying for long wans, an’ whin they git long wans they have to hold thim up.’ ————— To Cure a Cold in One Day.
