we suppose, is intended to convey the tin

McKinley's Double.
At the’ republican county convention a
large number of people, especially the
colored delegates, mistook McKinley’s
portrait tor Tom Casey’s. The resem-
blance is certainly very striking, and is
liable to cause Mr. Casey a great deal of
notoriety whim he traveU. A close look
at Mr. Casey’s lace shows that he has
slightly a little more pug in his nose than
the republican candidate. The balance
of the resemblance is perfect.

Exports of Silver.
During the twelve months ending
June 30, 1896, the exports of silver
exceeded tne imports by $46,726,-
345. This silver was expoited as
merchandise, and its value was, ap-
proximately 53c an ounce. It was
exported because this country was a
large producer of silver, and other
countries were able to buy it here to
advantage, just as they buy wheat
and cotton and sewing machines and

the passage of a free coinage act,
the United States government pro-
claims to the world that it is ready
to pay 100c an ounce for an unlimit-
ed amount of silver, the millions of
ounces that have gone abroad will
come hurrying back, together with
millions of ounces from other sourc-
es, and gold will go out in exchauge
for them. In a little while this
country will be loaded up with sil-
ver, and its gold will have gone
abroad. Then it will he a silver na-

The Denison baseball team, better
known as the Indians, disbanded the early
part of the week. When it was intimated
a few days ago that a reduction of salaries
was necessary then the trouble began
While the team seemed to be satisfied
on the face of things, and said that they
would hold together the balance of the
season, it was apparent that the esprit de
corps was gone, and had they continued
in the field, a series of ro’tten defeats
would have been the result. Monday,
when the time come to go to Fort Worth,
the majority of the team were in open re-
volt and refused to go. Tuesday the di-
rectors of the team held a meeting and
unanimously voted to pay O’Conner,
Land, Clark and Kohnle in full to date
and let the team go by the board.
The following resolutions were adopt-
ed :
“Wheaeas, certain members of the
club, namely, Oswald, Lynch, Bailev,
Weber, Sage and Quigg failed to report
to go to Fort Worth to play the game
scheduled there to-day, it is resolved that
it is the sense of this meeting .that the
Denison baseball club disband for the
season, it being now so late that it is not
possible to replace them with such compe-
tent players as will represent the city in
a satisfactory and successful race forthe
second penant.
“Whereas, the above players failed to
report upon instructions for duty, it is
resolved that each and every one of them
be individually fined $50 and same be
charged to their account.”
The committee who have been canvass-
ing the city had succeeded in raising
monthly subscriptions aggregating $480,
and felt confident of getting at least $100
more, so the propect was good for the
team going through the season had it
not been for the action of these players.
There is no disguising the fact that a
considerable number of our people was
getting nauseated on baseball, and the
public interest was flagging The weather
was an important factor in the growing
indifference, however, the team goes*
down with the fact that Denison is the
best baseball city in the state.
