E. d. Davis, Of Rutland, fireman, was

condition that they cannot get to the

WADE HAMrToN.-Yester Wade
Hampton was elected to the United States
Senate by the South Carolina (tissue.ba
lot) legislature. He also had MS leo am
putated and a story told about him by ST.
mon Cameron, how that he himself shot
James Cameron, the ex.senator's brother,
when he was a prisoner in the hands of
the rebels. Cameron's story cannot be
true for no such man as the murderer of a
prisoner in cold blood. could ever retain
the respect of American soldiers, northern
or southern. 1t is very possible however
that Cameron has been misquoted. Gen.
Hampton will find however that to owe
his election as senator to the tissue ballot
legislature will be far worse for him than
to have been kicked ny q mule-even if
he should lose his life from the latter per-
formance.

Answer to a Layman's - Inquiry.


A correspondent in last weeks FREE
MAN propounds the following inquiry;
What | want to ask Mr.. Willard is
whether there is word of truth in the al
legation that our government commits
petty larceny ut the rate of eighteen cents
for every silver dollar it puts in circula-
tion." 1t is time that our new silver dol
lars (weighing just as much as the old
ones, and more, proportionally, than the
halves and smaller silver). are now worth
only eighty-two cents as bullion. But our
paper money isn't worth anything as bull
| lion, so that if the government commits a
petty larceny of eighteen cents on every
silver dollar it issues, it seems to me that
it commits Il less petty one of one hundred
cents on every paper dollar it puts out.
The government receives these silver dol
lars again at their face for all debts due
the government, and if there is any larce-
ny in the matter l hope Mr.. Willard will
explain it SO that it can be understood by n
Layman.
As the government compels nobody to
take these silver dollars, it can hardly be
justly accused of petty larceny. Congress
in its zeal TO authorize the issue Of coin
dollars less valuable than gold dollars,
fortunately made no provision for putting
them in circulation, and Secretary Sher
man does not pay them out except to per-
sons who want them in exchange for gold
or greenback dollars The result has heen
that not enough of them have yet got into
circulation to bring them down to their
bullion value.
The greenbacks have value based on
their legal tender quality, their use in pay
ing taxes to the government, their service
as currency and their redeemabe quality.
They are promise to pay money, while a
coin dollar is not such promise. So far
as the value of the silver dollar depends
upon the fact that government gives it the
legal tender quality, and promises to re-
ceive it in payment of government dues,
it is worth just what the greenback is
worth by reason of its being n legal ten
der and receivable for government dues.
The greenback has, in addition, its prom
Use to paw and the silver dollar its value
as bullion; but these values cannot be
compal ed in the way in which " Layman y
suggests, though it may happen that they
will be equal if the greenbaek is redeem
able in silver. If there were several hun
bred millions of silver dollars in circula-
ton. and the greenbacks were redeemable
only in silver, we should all find out, very
soon, that our dollar was worth only the
value of the silver dollar as bullion.
