The Silver Dollar.

Had it not been for successful
combination OF Bondholders and Ma
tional Bankers the silver dollar would
to-day be the standard of values, a
position which it occupied from the
foundation OF the Government up to
1873, when it was surreptitiously drop
ped FROM the list of legal coins and
practically demonetized. Previous to
this time the price of gold, measured
by the standard, fiuctuated according
to supply and demand.

If we thought for a moment that
Harrison had anything to do with the
rise in the price of silver we should
shout, "Hurrah for Harrison" We
have never thought that the price OF
silver was influenced by the Presi-

been directed at those who confidently
predicted that silver would be worth
100 cents in sixty days after Harrison
became President.
The Salt Lake Tribune, which is
making a game fight for silver pro-
poses that if the House will not elect
a silver Speaker, to have the silver
men refuse to go into caucus and join
hands with the Democrats, provided
the latter will stand in for Speaker
pledged to silver coinage. The APP
peal says this is radical plan, but a
thoroughly sound one, which is an
acknowledgment that the Democrat
ic party, as party, is the staunch
friend Of silver.

A Singular Community.

The valley of Gressoney is one of
the most beautiful localities in the
Italian Alps. It also has a curious
history. In the Eleventh century it
was colonized by German soldiers,
to whom it had been given by King
Otto in recognition OF their valient
services to him. The descendants
of these soldiers, though in strange
land, have stuck fast to their Ger
man traditions. They still speak
German and keep up the closest con-
nections with Germany, which they
consider their fatherland. Their
daughters are educated in the best
German schools and seminaries.
When the young women come home
from the big cities of the north,
however, they are compelled by their
parents to lay aside their fine Berlin
and Frankfort garments to don the
curious customs of their foretathers,
and to learn to bake, and scrub, and
wash as their mothers and grand
mothers did before them. The clean
illness of the "Gressonari" has made
them famous throughout Italy. 1t is
proverb that their barns are clean
er than other peoples houses. Ger
man is spoken in the family, French
in the Churches, and Italian in the
schools. Consequently all the Ores
sonsri know at least three languages.
