The SILVER QUESTION is one that in
terests every taxpayer. 1t is especially |
interesting to the poor who labor for their |
living. From labor after all, all taxes
are paid. Consequently the whole pub
lie debt of the government, now in
bonds, is to be paid in gold and
silver. If, as the gold standard people |
argue, silver is worth only IS cents to the
dollar, then if the government bonds are
paid in gold only, instead of silver, OF
course the laboring taxpayer will have
tOpay more thanif the debt is paid, interest
and principal, in silver and gold. II .
bonds, when originally given, were to be
paid in lawful money of the United
States, hence they were payable in legal
tenders as well as in silver and gold.
They sold with that understanding, and
brought only forty to sixty cents. Now,
the whole effort to keep silver from being
coined isto secure payment in one metal,
gold-made dearer by the demonstration
Of silver. The U. S. mint now buys
enough silver bullion for IS cents to
make dollar when coined. 1t, there
fore, makes something more than the
actual cost of the coinage, which We
think is about II cents in this countr,
and in England, hence the government
makes per cent. on the operation. TIL,
question before Congress for the last tw,
days has been whether silver should b.
coined as cheaply as gold, which is coin
ed for the amount it costs; that is it cost
the man who has gold bullion only abou
ten or eleven dollars to get 800 wort
of 1t made into dollars, whereas it cost
the man who has silver bullion fiftee
dollars to get 500 worth of it made I'M
dollars.
1t Is argued that the mints were esta
lished to furnish coined money, and
fix the value thereof. That to attem
to make money out OF the coinage
bullion is taking from the miners pa
of their labor, and it is calculated to {
stroy this industry, instead of encour;
ing it; that gold and silver are produ

Tom YOUNG For GoYERNoR


A special dispatch from Bellaire to
the Cincinnati Gazstte Of Monday says
that in view OF the i'm portant question
at the present time SO ably and logically
discussed among the political factions
in this and other States, as to whom is
due the honor, and by right ought to
to insure victory to the Republican
party-receive the nomination for
ObiO's Governor next year, few not
sbIes from the counties OF Jefferson.
Harrison, Monroe, and Noble, met
here few days since, and the sub
stance of their meeting was to strong
ly an uneguivOcally urge ex'Gov.
Thomas l.. Young for the looming
man." In conversation with a.promi'
nent political gentleman OF Columbi'
ana County, we were also told that ex'
Gov. Young, at the present day, is the
strongest man in, the State Of Ohio, not
even excepting Garfield, especially in
rhe>ranks offthe mechanical and labor
ing elements. The strongest impress
sion, however, seems TO prevail that
whether invited, to participate in the
next race for Gubernatorlal honors OF
not. Gen. Young will be a formidable
candidate tor the Senatorship, We
give this precisely as told by several
whose influence. and voice in polical
matters is of no ilconsiderate play.

THE Nichols administration in Lou
isiana does not appear to be success.
When Kellogg went into office there
was 6 bonded debt of over $23, 3,0O0, 900,
and floating debt of over S2,OOO,o0O
A compromise was effected with the
creditors of the State, and the debt was
scaled down and funded in z per cent
clnsoIs. As result of the measures
of Gov. Kellogg's administration the
debt was reduced to less than $4,000.
00J, and taxation was reduced from zig
mills to l4t mills, and limited to that
by a constitutional amendment. When
he went out OF Office the interest on the
public debt had been paid, and $780,
900 remained in the hands of the Fis
cal Agent. 1t has been a year and
three mouths since Nichols got control
and the treasury is empty; there Is nc
money to meet the January Interest
on the debt; the Fiscal Agent has
claim for over 5000, 600 of arrears of in
terest advanced by him, and the State
bonded debt has been increased 81,
