no i've rent piece. with which 10 make
up tho deficiency. The tendency
will DO TO drive two bit pieces
entirely out Of circulation. Hall dollars
flour bit pieces) will still DO In vogue,
but the most Of men would not pay o
half dollar piece for two or four drinks,
when two twenty cent pieces or four ten
cent pieces would do just rs well. Thus
sellers will DO compelled to take eight
ten cent pieces $50 cents) for what is
now sold for eight bits ($l). thus cut
ting of exactly 20 per cent on all their
sales. This IA . serious loss, and in
most kinds Of business exceeds all the
profits. The effoct upon the retail gro
c~eries. and in fact upon all kinds OF re-
tail trade will be scarcely less serious.
A general change in tho schedule Of
prices will have to DO made and the
final result may DO the introduction Of
fiye-cent nickels. When tho law goes
into cffec. nc moro two-bit pieces will
be coined ON the Pacific coast, and those
in circulation will DO gradually drawn
In. The era OF bits will no over. and
money will DO denominated ton cents,
twenty csnts or half a dollar. as tho case
may be.
