;the great panacea
"'For Each and All of the Financial
rC . Ills of the United States.
.SILVER DEBATE IN THE SENATE.
jfcfCharfes of an Arkansas Democrat Terj
Vehemently Denied.
5 "THE BILL IS KOT A CACCDS MEASURE
"Washington, May 13. "When the
silver question was called ud in the Senate
r K to-day, Mr. Jones resumed his speech in
advocacy of his bill. He opposed tbe iaea
of redeeming Treasury notes in bullion on
tbe ground that when they were so redeemed
the monetary circulation would be con
tracted: and the putting of bullion on the
market would cot make up to the country
for the loss ot money irom its circulation.
He expressed entire confidence in the honesty
of purpose and conscientiousness of motive
-of the present Secretary of the Treasury,
but said as none of the Secretaries, for 12
years past, had coined a dollar of silver
' more than compelled by law to do, future
Secretaries might conscientiously deem it
their duty to ketp in circulation the least
possible amount of the proposed treasury
notes, and thus the United States Treasury
inisrht in effect become a mere purchasing
sgent for the East India Company, or for
syndicates of English merchants wanting
bullion chap in order to make their pay
ments to India.
Gold, by reason of its greater value, not
withstanding all the legislation in its favor,
could never become the common money
medium of the world. A gold coin that
would represent an average day's labor
would be too small for convenient handling.
Silver was the money metal best suited to
the mass of the people, and to the variety
and character of transactions constituting
the interchanges of daily life.
BKTTEE DEMONETIZE GOLD.
"Were there any conceivable necessity for
the demonetization of either metal,why, he
asked, demonetize that which promised the
greater and more steady yield? If for any
reason society should decide that one of
them should be discarded, should it not
"rather be that one which promised the
smaller future yield than that which prom
ised the larger? It was absolutely vital to
the welfare of societv that both silver and
M. gold should be in full and unlimited use
Jf as money, and equally invested with the
L power of legal tender. In conclusion he
V id:
Br I nredict that the restoration of silver to its
liirthricht will mark an epoch in the history of
this Republic It will place in circnlation an
amount of money commensurate with our in
creasing population. It will give assurance to
oar languishing industries that the volume of
our circulating medium is not to continuo
zhrlnlin;; and that the tendency of prices shall
no longer be downward. It will increase the
waces of labor and the prices of the products
of .labor: it will reduce the price of bonds and
other forms of money futures; it will lighten,
but not iuequitably. the burden of mortgages;
it will increase largely, though not unjustly,
(the debt-paying and taipaj ing power of tbe
(people. It will loosen the grasp of the creditor
irom we necK oi me aentor.
ONE Or THE ADVANTAGES.
Bytheremonetizaticm of silver money will
cease to be the object of commerce, and will
again become its beneficent instrument.
Activity will replace stagnation; movement
will supplant inertia: courage will banish fear:
confidence will dispel doubt; hope will super
sede despair. The lifting up of silver to Its
rightful plane by the side of gold will set in
motion all tbe latent energies of tbe people. It
will banish involuntary idleness by putting
every willing man to work. It will revive busi
ness and reanimate the heart and hope of the
masses.
Capital, no longer fearing a fall in prices, will
turn into productive avenues. The hoards of
money lying idle in the bank vaults will come
out to enrich and bless alike their owners and
the community at large: while the millions of
dollars now invested at low interest in gilt
edged securities will seek more profitable in
vestment in the busy field of lndnstry, where
they will be utilized in the payment of wages
aud tbe consequent dissemination of comfort
and hapniness among the people.
And this It will accomplish, not for tbe
United States alone, but for civilization. For
it is not too much to say, Air. President, that
upon the decision of this questiou depend con
sequences more momentous than upon that of
any other question of public policy within the
memory of this generation.
A QUESTION OF CIVILIZATION.
In a broader sense than any other question
attracting the general attention of mankind, it
is a question of civilization. It embodies tbe
hopes and aspirations of our race. The act of
Congress which shall happily solve it will con
stitute a decree of emancipation as veritable
as any that ever freed serf irom thraldom, but
moie universal in its application. It will pro
claim tbe freedom ot tbe white race tbe world
over; it will lilt the bowed head of labor; it
will hush tbe threnody of toil; it will inaugu
rate tbe true renaissance a renaissance of
pro-perlty. without which. Industry, learning,
science, literature, art are but apples of Sodom.
lu answer to questions Mr. Jones said
that if there was a free coinage ot silver he
believed tiiat in three days the silver not
used for coinage would be worth $1 29 an
ounce, and that there it would remain. Mr.
Jones to-day had the same close attention
from Senators of both parties that he had
yesterday and nt the close of his speech was
warmly applauded
Mr. Jones, ot Arkansas, next addressed
the Senate in criticism of the pending bill.
He said that the bill as it stood should
never become a law, but should be amended
by making it provide at least for tbe un
limited coinage of silver whenever tbe
price reached the point at which the Gov
ernwent ceased to be a purchaser. This was
an absolute necessity unless the purpose was
to destroy silver as money. Those who
vftmld vote for the bill as it stood certainly
intentted llie demonetization of silver, and
might as well avow it,
ONE OF THB CHABCES.
"While striking a fatal blow at the inter
est of the great body ot the people they in
tended only to benefit tbe sellers of silver
bullion by increasing its price. The delib
erate purpose to discredit the silver treasury
notes, by refusing to make them a legal
tender, suggested further the real purpose
had in view by the Kepuulican party. He
was in favor of tbe issue of cer
tificates for coin . and bullion,
aud of conferring upon them the
qualities of legal tender as broadly and
completely as it was conferred upon the
coins which they represented. There was
no reason why those certificates should be in
any seute Inferior to any other form of paper
money. They were the very best form of
paper money because thev were rendered
doubly secure by the pledged faith of tbe
Government and by the deposit of coin de
voted to their redemption.
Mr. Teller said that the Senator from Ar
kansas seemed to he laboring under the im
pression that the pending bill was the result
d a Republican caucus. Tbe Senator was
very much mistaken. There was no caucus
bill of any kind before the Senate. Mr.
Jones replied that he had no doubt that the
statement of the Senator from Colorado was
literally true. At the same time, if news
paper reports and the common understand
ing around the Capitol were entitled to any
consideration (and he was satisfied that
they were), every Republican Senator, ex
cept the Senator from Colorado, had agreed
(either in conference or cauens) to vote
Jor it.
A CHOBUS OF DEXIAL3.
Senators Ingalls, Allison and others
That is not true.
Mr. Jones Then I hop. that we will find
a large number of Senators on that side
voting against it.
Mr. Allison The bill that is now on the
calendar of the Senate, so far from being
the result of a Republican caucus, is the
lesult of the deliberations ot tbe Finance
Committee, all members of that committee
of both political parties participating in its
preparation. To suggestion of a caucus
was made on either side of the Chamber so
far as I know, until some time after this
bill was reported, and I thoroughly concur
in what has been said by the' Senator from
Colorado that there is no agreement or un
derstanding on this side of tbe Chamber to
Tote for the bill.
Mr. Jones, of Arkansas Members of the
Bepublioa party have said to mein private
conversation that this bill has been ap
proved by every Senator on that side ex
cept the Senator from Colorado.
Mr. Harris, a member of the Finance
Committee, said that the bill had been re
ported by a majority vote of that commit
tee. He had no knowledge or suspicion of
a caucus having had anything to do with it.
A minority of that committee had (when
the bill was tinder consideration) favored,
and still favored tbe absolute free coinage
of silver. But the question with that mi
nority (of which he was one) haa narrowed
itself down to the point of accepting the
pending measure in lieu of existing law,
under which only 2,000,000 of silver dollars
were coined monthly. He himself had de
cided to do so. He did not care to say any
thing more now, but would do so another
day. The bill then went over till to-morrow.
NECESSITY OP BETTER ROADS.
A Flan Suggested by N. W. Slinler, Esq..
Who Thinks Supervisors Could be In
dictednow n Good Road Could be
Made and Kept Up.
The condition of the roads near Pitts
burg is becoming so bad that there is talk
or an organized movement to have super
visors indicted for criminal negligence, and
N. "W. Shafer, Esq., says an indictment
would hold water Notwithstanding the
notoriety that has been given tbe matter for
two years past, no real effort has been
made to better tbe situation, and the amount
of money expended yearly, it is claimed, would
make tbem much better if used properly.
1 1 Two propositions are irrefragible. The first
Is that noj-oad can be kept good if the water is
allowed to lie upon it. and the second is that
money enough is spent to keep the water off.
Mr. Shafer suggests a comparatively inexpen
sive plan to effect the latter object cut ditches
on each side, several feet deep, not less than
two, dig the stone ont of the roads, break them
small and fill them into the ditcbeB which
should first be boxed. The water would per
colate through these stone drains. The road
would be higher than the boxing, and the heav
iest hauling would never allow the road to be
come very mudly, if ordinary care were used,
though there were no stone whatever on it. Of
coarse the roadbed should be packed solidly.
Three or fourheavy rollers to atownship would
be sufficient. As tbe boxing would be excluded
from tbe air it wonld be practicably indestruct
ible, and subsequent repairs would cost but
little.
Even with the highways made by the State,
macadamizing In general will for many years
be impracticable, but tbe means suggested will
make a dirt road almost as (rood as a stone one.
Tbe surface shonld be sufficiently above the
drain boxes to illow the water to drain off rap
idly before the track is cut by wheeling.
'Squire Herman Handel has been on a road
exploring expedition on his own account. He
says that in South Fayette township some of
tbe roads have been fenced np and marked
"Dangerbus." He also reports that on the
Brownsville road a agon load of hay has dis
appeared from might, and that a horse's leg was
broken in an attempt to extricate. Supervisors
are fleeing from tbe wrath to come, and the
'Squire suggests that a shaf; be sunk to ascer
tain the geological strata on the line of road.
think it Would fit them.
Severn! Coraopolltnns Who Would Like to
be Justices of the Peace.
The township of Coraopolis is legally sup
posed to have two Justices Jl the Peace, but
de facto it has only rejoiced in the possession
of one for some months past. As there are no
saloons in tbe village, 'Squire Ferree has so
far been able to do tbe work of both, but now
that the place has blossomed into an oil center
some people think he needs an assistant, and a,
number have called tbe attention of Prothono
tary Bradley to the matter, and intimated a
willingness to share the burden.
Tbe late deputy Coroner was a J. F. ! Cora
opolis, but tbe burgers say they haven't seen
him for months, and some of them think bis
brocanswnnld fit them like paper on the wall.
While sympathizing with all justice of the
peaceably inclined people. Mr. Bradley cannot
find any warrant for certification of a vacancy
to the Governor, as the late J. P. has neither
resigned tbe office nor has anything yet arisen
to make a declaration of vacancy necessary.
It looks now as though 'Squire Ferree would
have a monopoly of the justice business for
some considerable time to come.

If 1 had known or the CtrrictmA Remediks

on my head in a spot not farcer than a cent. It
spread rapidly all over bt body and got nndermy
nails. The scales would drop off or me all the
time, and my suffering was endless and without
relief. One thousand dollars would not tempt me
to hare this disease over again. I am a poor man,
but feel rich to be relieved of what some or tbe
doctors said was leprosy, some ringworm, psori
asis, etc I took and Sarsaparlllas
over one year and a half, but no enre. I went to
two or three doctors, and no cure. I cannot praise
the cuticura Remedies too much. They have
mademysktn as clear and free from scales as a

CCTICUKA. and three bottles or CCticur A. Resol

Mr. Fred Balm,
Another well-known resident of Sharpsburg
has been a victim of catarrh and dyspepsia.
His stomach gave bim an endless amount of
trouble. Re bad belching of gas from bis
stomach after eating, sour taste, and often felt
like vomiting his food. His appetite was poor,
and as his liver was much enlarged It gave him
great pain. In fact, be would often be taken
with such sharp cramps and pain across bis
stomach and bowels it seemed as If he could
not live. Ho bad palpitation of the heart,
dizziness, weakness and pain across tbe small
of bis back, and a numb, lifeless feeling in his
limbs. He could get but little sleep, and as
every change ot weather gave bim a cold, he
took on a lingering cough. His breath became
short and be felt pain and soreness in bis lungs
and nnder his shoulder blades. Night sweats
weakened him very fast, and be gradually grew
worse until he lost 30 pounds of flesh. Having

and disheartened, and often became so melan
choly that he would feel tempted to jump
into the river and thus end bis suffer
ing. One day he noticed in tbe
paper an account of a patient who bad been
cured .by the catarrh specialists at 323 Penn
avenue of conditions that seemed similar to
his own. He resolved to call on these special
ists. He did so, and was told he could yet be
cured. Although he bad but little faith, he re
solved to try once more, and after taking a
course of treatment became cured. He says:
"The above history of my disease and cure is
true in every respect. I bad received treat
ment from 20 physicians, yet gradually grew
worse, and for one year before beginning treat
ment with these physicians I was scarcely
able to do any work. I have now worked bard
for the past two months, feel well and strong,
and words do not express the joy I feel that
my life has been spared and health restored. I
hereby sign my name, FRED HAHN."
