THE FRIENDS AND ENEMIES OF
SILVER.

The "Inter Mountain" tries to make
it appear that Cleveland Is opposed to
silver, and quotes something he is
charged with having said some years ago.
All this is amusing in the face of these
facts.
/. That silver wal demOnetized by the
Republican party in 1873.
2. That Hayes Republican de facto
President) vetoed the Democratic Bland
Allison coinage act Of 1878, and that the
Democrats, with a few Western Republic
cans, passed the law over his veto.
3. That Blaine advocated an amend
ment to the coinage law of 1873 /; first
that the law should not be a legal tender,
and next, that it should be of 1926 grains
Of silver, 9-10 fine.
4. And also, it may not, at this time,
be amiss, or without pith and interest,
to hear what two distinguished gentle
men, now conspicuously before the
country as public men, had to say at
critical stages in the history of the ques-
ton of silver coinage regarding the use
Of silver al money confraternally with
gold /; that is, as far back as April, 1879,
or less than fourteen months after the
reconciliation of silver through the
Bland-Allison act Of February %, 1873.
The special occasion was the discussion
Of a substitute for a bill introduced in
the House of Representatives, the object
Of which, in the first instance, was to
enable persons holding limited tender or
subsidiary money under certain circum-
stances, to exchange it for full tender
money. That substitute was introduced
by the Honorable Roger @. Mills, then. as
now, a member of that branch of Con-
gress, and thus, by the abolition of
subsidiary or limited tender silver
money be obviated all necessity for the
proposed authority to exchange and the
substitution of unlimited free coinage.
as may be seen from the extracts which
we give below in ju~xtaposition with what
was said at the time in reply by SO stren-
uOus and distinguished an opponent of
the substitute proposed in the Mills bill
OF that day, as the Honorable Levi Par
sons Morton, to-wit:

MILLS.

II see no reason why
the subsidiary coins
should be restricted in
their d~ebt-paying pow
er. The people have
demanded that their sill
yer coin shall be raised
from its degraded posi-
ton and to have it
placed on an equality
with gold. I propose
to bring back the coin
of the subsidiary silver
coinage of the country
to what it was in 1887;
to a all your coins
full weight, the dollar
of 371A grains of pure
silver-of 412h grains
standard silver and the
half dollar of half that
amount, and the quar-
ter of quarter that
amount, and to make
the whole as our fathers
made it, legal tender in
payment of all debt to
any amount, public or
private. Then your sill
yer will come up and
gold will fall
down. y y y y

nature.

full to behold. A well known Republican

the price OF a meal ticket, was around
offering to bet $1,000, or more. on Tom
Carriers election, yesterday. Just as he
was in the act OF producing his money, he
espied a Chinaman with a clothes basket
on his shoulders and a suggestive smile on
his face, entering the saloon, and the way
that heller and his pocket-book disap-
peared through the back door, would have
astonished aver a blase dude.
