The deaf mute clerk looked be-
wildered. "Why?' his fingers asked.
''Some people have told the secre-
tary that YOU have been around the ho-
tel corridors talking in a loud and
boisterous manner against the admins
tration.'
An expression of relief came across
the mute clerk face when he heard
the reason, and his fingers replied: Il

RICHARD PARKS BLAND, OF MISSOURI, CHAIRMAN
OF THE COMMITTEE ON COINAGE, WEIGHTS
AND MEASURES, AND FATHER OF THE BLAND
SILVER BILL.
The appointment of Mr.. Bland as Chair
man of the Committee on Coinage, Weights
and Measures, encouraging the hopes of those
who resist the agitation for the suspension of
silver coinage President Cleveland and an
important section of his party, think that
too much silver is being coined; on the other
hand it is held by leading Democrats, and by
possibly the majority of the party, that the
continued abundant coinage of silver under
the bland " act is advisable. Among Re-
publicans similar division of opinion is
observable, The present session of Congress
will be remarkable for the thorough discus
sion of the silver question.
Mr.. Bland is the father of the act of Con-
greSs under the provisions of which silver
coins to the nominal value of at least So
OOOUOO are made every month. This gives
the special interest to his appointment in
the Congressional committees, which has
been noted.
Richard Parks Bland, of Lebanon, Mo-, is
a Kentuckian, having been born at Hart
ford, KY, August 10, 1885. He received an
academic education. At the age of twenty
ne removed 10 the state OF MISSOURI. From
thence he extended his travels to California
and to a portion of what then was Utah
Territory, which is now known as Nevada.
He settled down in Virginia City, where he
opened an Office and began the practice of
law. In common with a majority of his
wide-awake neighbors commanding the
necessary means he became interested in
mining matters.
Mr.. Bland was County Treasurer of Carson
County, Utah Territory, from 1860 until the
organization of the State Government of
Nevada. In 1865 he returned to Missouri,
locating at Rolla, where he entered into
law partnership with his brother. He re-
moved to Lebanon, his residence at the pres
ent time, four years after, and continued his
practice there. Mr.. Bland was elected to the
Forty-third Congress, and has been elected to
every subsequent one.
