Southern standard. (McMinnville, Tenn.) 1879-current, 1891-07-18

Does the Standard, in its enlighten-
ed wisdom, presume to say that the
Government will coin IS cents worth
of silver into a dollar for the mine
owner New Era.
That is precisely what we under
stand free coinage to mean. If the
converting of silver bullion into coin
would not to some extent increase its
value, why do you suppose the own
ers of the bullion would be so clam
orous for its free coinage? Under
our present system of coinage, our
silver money is good as gold. We
believe that free coinage of silver
will change this, will depereciate sill
yer and give us currency with two
different standards of value. We
believe this condition of things will
be detrimental to the best interests
of the laboring classes, farmers, me-
chanics, or whatever their occupa-
ton may be. We see no fault to find
with our present silver money. BY
our present system of coinage the cur
rency is being increased about five
million dollars per month, about one
million of which is profit to the
Government, relieving the people OF
just that much taxation. Under free
coinage the increase in currency
would probably be greater, but the
people as a whole would get no bene-
fit from it, and we believe that the
silver money would depreciate in the
hands of the people to such an extent
as to make the change very disas.

We endorse the suggestion of our
contemporary that the democratic
county executive committees "select
some competent man to act as Gov
ernor pro tenn during the special ses-
sion who will read over the laws it
may pass and see that they contain
no plumbers to make them inopera-
tive.-New Era.
We are really glad we have been
able to make one suggestion that our
neighbor can endorse. We are sorry
however, that we cannot second the
Era's further suggestion as to the gen.
tleman to fill the place-he would be
fully as incapable as the present in
bent. We are sorry, too, that we
cannot return the compliment by
recommending any OF the numerous
editors of the Era, past or present, for
the same reason.

Unmindful of harvest and aftermath.
With empty easements. drear and gray
The house stands, facing down the bay-

The porch's fluted columns trace,
And busy swallows dart and call

The faithful sentinel lilacs wait.
