In discu sing the hard time?, tho low prices an i tae b-anog thereon of ap preciated m 'Oy, wrirora who favor the single sranda'd of gold uuaily at hrst ignore the plain business propoi tiou that the value of any nece ary thing tnut iucrease if thj supply of it be limited and iusufli dent to meet re q liremeiits, and ep.-rcialiy if some or her thing that divided tho dniiad be withdrawn from competition, and they deny that moaey bael on gold has appreciated since silver was tatcen from the sz uidard litid go;d left to bear ic alone, jxh an illustration of the ap preciation of one rnetai over another we have only to cite that during the past week gold went to a premium and the government itself wa$ forced to pay the express charges bom ways to secure enough goid with xvhich to meet a pressing obligation. But before they get through they abandon this position by arguing that it mke3 ro difference to the producer, the farmer for instance, if money has increased in value or purchasing power ' and will buv twice asmuch as it would i dczen years ago, because, though he gets half as much money for what he j pells he gives but half as much money i for what he buys. Such writers are either profoundly ignorant or they de- , , m, liberately attempt to deceive. The ex - . . . . , . , . isting coneitious furnish a sufficient rt , , , answer to such stuff. We have money , . . , , , r of high purchasing power, worth in , ,. . staple commodities tvice what it used to be, wo hav-3 tholow prices, and we pi'onip'ly whether it wiit b tcU'T to h J continue o:i ward in the ciirrcdoii '-ve ii'ive bvn goia unaer the leader sinp of our rinanei il m-itznuio or to Iburu .iri.il t w lis. i turn .iron;;-! arid try to trt b whore I to bo. iX'iivi r -e nd 1 farm.

CO-OPE A I "ION. The possibilities of co operation have never been realized by our farmers. We recently alluded to ca operation in mail d. livery and shipping, says the F run rs' Voice. O ae team and or.e person could fre quently do the busii-tss of half a dtz n famines in town, and toat xvouid be a consuierablo item m the busy tea' on and xvouid bo KO-'nec-riing of a Paving at any at ason. if a s s.em of that, kind could be jvrk-oi.e i in a district, ;t might make a leas umn'o.-r of horses nectary. Mates -f aii el tvta of stock could be pureha. d by ti xaral larm ers, and ulthouwu lock is cheap, it is wisdom aud necessary to save every cent p jd.doio under pr s .lit conditions. 8oaio ot the machioe-y u -ed on the farm could be pureha- d iu this xvay. A reaper or mo log maem-ae will read ily do the work ol several ram s where they are small, and eaon has but a few acres io take care of. Farmers have found rnutuai insurance to be a good thing, aud they would find co-operation in many directions to be good. iDisim pocsibio for us to sy how far or in what particulars co operation would bo practical in any given community. It is for the people of every community to look over the field and see what they can do in the matter. A great deal of money has been saved by clubbing to gether acd buying at wholesale prices. If every community had a farm organ ization such matters could be readily acted upon and means for saving money to the farmer adopted. A WALL STREET BLACK LIST.

Friday morning the News ana Observer had a cartoon of tho Marshal and a pretty rank letter from its Durham corre spondent. This led to a personal ditli culty about i 30 a. m. on South Fayette ville strte . Mr. Daniela' nerve was overcane by the superior strength of Marshal Carroll, who is almost a giant, and the - Marshal tried to make tho editor promise that he would not pub iish anything else about him in his paper.

The Koseheim Dry Goods Company, Nashvide, Teon., the Ibrgcst store in that city, has assigned. They employ ed 150 clerks. We presume they got tired waiting for the good limes to come under a single standard. The Marseilles Manufacturing Co., the largest factory for making agricul tural implements in Illinois, has aa signed. The ompany owes 200,000 eound dollar- and no doubt believes that if Grover had crderd the money mills stopped during his first adminis- tratics, they would now be enjoying great prosperity. Albert E. Silverthone, a lumber dealer, has disappeared from Chicago. He owes about 150,000 sound dollars. B D. Mills, President of the State Bank, Lincoln, Neb , has been arrested for stealing $40,000 (ound.)
