THE SILVER DOLLAR AGAIN.

THE SILVER DOLLAR AGAIN.
We are hearing great deal about
the 70 cent silver dollar. These peo-
pie seem to be ignorant of the fact
that the Congress of the United States
is empowered by the Constitution to
"coin money and regulate the value
thereof" The silver dollar in quest
ion is coined under this provision and
its value fixed at 100 cents. 1t will
buy as much of any thing in the
American market as any other dollar,
and it will continue to do this until
otherwise decreed by Congress. AS
reason why this dollar should be in
some way dishonored, it is urged that
it only contains seventy-nine cents
worth of silver according to the price
at which bullion is quoted in the
European market. This argument
implies concession to foreign dicta-
ton which can only be granted at the
expense of American humiliation.
IF we are to enlarge our silver dol
lar until it shall contain a dollars
worth of bullion at the Europeon
quotation, what reason would remain
why the price of bullion should not
decline further to SO cents, that per-
.petuating the present arbitrary dis
parity in value (21 cts.) between it
and the dollar? Especially as the
present disparity has been forced by
a conspiracy between the monometal-
lists ofEurope and America, for the
advantage over labor and the people
that the single standard villainy
would give them. It was for the pro-
lection of labor and the masses against
the intrigues and conspiracies of capt.
tai that the framen of the Constitution
empowered Congress to regulate the
value" Gifts own and foreign coinages;
and it is through the efficacy Of this
wise provision, as construed by the
l.
Democrats in Congress in favor of the
people, which saves the people now
from outrage and the calamity which
the greedy single gold standard men
would infiict upon them.
! Since our people are not permitted
to reduce the standard wheat bushel
in the ratio Of the difference between
the cost Of production here and in
India, let US not enlarge or other
wise dishonor our silver dollar in or,
| er to accommodate it to the Europ
can quotation of silver bullion. Lei
US stand by our silver dollar inst as il
is to-day, continue to make it good fol

THE YOUNG LADY's DENIAL.A-wHIsk'

lliE AOUNG LADY DENlAL.--N H4Nkf
INSTEAD OF DYNAMITE.
Last Monday night Public Square
was q scene Of wild confusion. An
angry mob had gathered there and
were rendering the air thick with
oaths an vile threats, which was a
good deal safer than rocks and clubs
would have been, C.lW. Carr and
John Jobe were the leaders, it seems,
and were accusing Harry Lyle Of hay
ing told Jim Crumley to snatch an
umbrella from a young lady at the
picnic last Saturday. The young
man denied the statement and proved
by Mr.. Crumley that he did not make
the remark, but still the gentlemen
were not satisfied and were seemingly
anxious to fight anybody who might
interfere. The smoke editor of The
COMET made his appearance at this
time and seeing the town was about
to engage in free fight remarked to
friend that this was equal to the
Chicago liots and would have to be
written up whereupon, Mr.. Curt Sim
mons spoke up and said if we publish
ed an account of "this riot" we would
get into trouble, and got rather
warmed up when we told him it
was our business to publish what we
saw fit, and that we should certainly
say what we pleased in regard to this
matter. 1csiE f.U3 E HA ANkNEf
Right here we will say THE COMET
never assails an institution, .organi-
cation or an individuel without hay
ing sufficient grounds for doing so
We never lug personal matters into
print because we have the press al
our hands. A newspaper is an organ
through which political parties speak
and advocate their principles, and
men connected with a newspaper who
are afraid to speak their principles
and advocate that which is just anC
right, OBSERVER the contempt of all hon
est citizens.
The gentleman that were engaged
in this rumpus are well known
and respected in this community anC
it is to be regretted that they SHOULD
loose self-respect in this man
ner.
Bascom Crumley's portly presene,
put "quietus" on the mob leader
and caused a smile to play over thei
angry features like the red glare o
hades on the adamantine walls OF Sa
tins citadel.
Aletter was received from the youni
lady in question, this morning. il
which she emphatically denied havin
said what was reported, and hayin
asked either of the gentlemen mer
toned to take her part.
Thus endeth one of the most dir
graceful riots Of the day. a.

they viii be? Will you concede the
fact that their social, mental and spir-
itual growth win have much to do
in fixing the estimate to be placed up
on our town at home and abroad2
You answer, yes. Listen then to a
short story. Open your hearts, give
us a prayer and extend us helping
hand. About six months ago the first
steps were taken to organize a Y. M.
G. A. at Johnson. We were few in
numbers and without help. We plan
ned, worked, prayed, trusted in God.
Our meetings grew in interest and our
membership increased until we now
number about As. We know you
would be proud to see their bright
faces in our business and devotional
meetings. But the golden harvest is
before us yet, A hundred others re-
main to be brought in from the places
of sin. But listen again. We have
no Association Room. We have been
meeting at point too distant from
the place whore the centre Of our in
fuence should continually burn. We
have, however, succeeded in renting a
room near the centre of town, but are
compelled to repair it, fit it up and
make it attractive. We want you To
help us. II you endorse our objects
and aims, don't PASS us be coldly and
indifferently. Messrs. w. W. Faw and
JsF. Crumley are our agents to sole
it and receive contributions. Call OF
them and we will remember you kind
