e.. AN INTERESTING DOCUMENT.
A copy Of the following interesting docu-
ment was to-day furnished from the files OF
the Department of State on the application
OF the Director Of the Mint, and from which
appears, for the first time in the present
discussion of the silver question, the true
reason why the dollar Of the fathers was not
coined for many years after 1905 ~
"DEPAKTMENT OF STATE, May /, 1906.
90 Robert Patterson, Esq, Director of the
Mint: ..... ..
"Sir,--In consequence Of representa-
ton from the director OF the Bank OF the
United States that considerable purchases
have been made OF dollars coined at the
mint for the purpose OF exporting them,
and as it is probable further purchases and
expectations Will be made, the President
directs that all the silver. to be coined at the
mint shall be- Of small denominations, SO
that the value OF the largest pieces shall not
exceed half dollar. ...-.r' .@'

Blaine Interviewed

ON HIS WAY TO THE HOT SPRJNGS-WIIAT He
THINKS OF THE SOUTHERN PEOPLE-A WARM
RECEPTION AWAITING HTS INTERVIEW BY
THE SOUTHERN PRESS. .
ST. LOUIS, December Ex-senator Blaine,
ey-Secretary OF the Navy Robson, Con-
gresham Eugene Hale, Of Maine, and Sem
ator Chaffee, OF Colorado, arrived in ST..
Louis last night, and after remaining over
night at Lindell Hotel left for the Hot
Springs. ..4,o. =. .-.....-. s
The Globe Democrat publishes an inter-
view with Senator Blaine. Speaking Of
Mr.. Hayes and the Republican party, he
SAID: MIR. Hayes has undoubtedly placed
himself in a position where he cannot re-
ceive the cordial support OF the party that
elected him. The line is in fact already so
clearly drawn between him and the
party that there can be no doubt
as to how each stands. Mr.. Hayes, in
a party view, is neither on the Republican
side nor on this line. He is on the other
side of the line, so far as all the practical re-
suits of his administration are concerned.
It is absurd to suppose that there can be
any harmony between him and the Repub-
lican party as long as he pursues his present
course The people know whether be has
carried ont his pledges as the President
elected by the Republican party.
Being asked about the southern policy,
Senator Blaine said that on this subject
there was, OF course, difference Of opin-
ion, but the difference was very slight; it
was safe to assume that there was no great
division Of sentiment in the party on the
matter. ",Many honest Republicans" said
the Senator, "believe that the southern
people are as loyal TO the Union as we are
in the North; but OF this there is serious
doubt. The southern people, it is true,
are, according to all appearances, peace
fully inclined, and show DISPOSE
ton to maintain the supremacy of
the National Government; but men who
were in the rebel army cannot so readily
give up their faith, and their professions,
in my opinion, are only skin-deep. The
southerners are laying low until they get on
top. They lead the Democracy. and should
their party get into power in 1880 they will
show hand that Will surprise that class OF
Republicans who believe that reconciliation
has been completed. The southern people
are not, in fact, reconciled. They are play
Ing policy, and their purpose is to get pos
session OF the Government and rule it as
they did before the war. and then all the
established results Of the war and recon-
stryction would be set aside,

elford has determined to devote himself to
the ministry OF the gospel. and for this pur-
pose he has gone TO enter rs Il student ut
the Episcopal Theological Seminary in Fair
fax county. Mr.. Shackelford had graduated
in law mt the University OF Virginia, and a
brilliant career had been predicted for him
in the practice Of that profession.
An ont building on the border OF a lot
belonging to Mr.. J. II. Johnson was burned
down last night. The house was so remote

The people in the northern part OF this

policy and feasibility OF. constructing q
narrow-gauge railway from Sycamore sta
fn nt,f
near Bcrger's store. There will be meet
ng OF the citizens at Berger'S store on the
Cd OF January. and Colonel W. Z. Sims,
Captain Walter Coles, and perhaps others,
propose to address them in advocacy OF the
enterprise. Major Mason, the distinguished
contractor, is reported As promising that the
cars will be running on the track within
three months after the work has been be-
gun, the distance being about sixteen
miles and il is announced that the people
along the line of the proposed road are re-
Qucsted to give only the right OF way and
the timber for the cross-tieS. The scheme has
been originated by company OF miners
said to be from Pennsylvania, who have
found certain lands near Berger'S store very
rich in iron ore, and have leased for long
period the lands on which and those near
which the ore has been found. l am told
that this company Of miners propose to
work under the provisions OF charter for
a narrow-gauge railway from some point on
the Midland road to Rocky Mount; but |
do not know Of any such charter.
