AGAINST FREE COINAGE.
Montana Mining Man Discusses the
Currency Problem.


Mr.. G. II. Robinson, a well-kuown mining
man of Helena, has come to this state to ex-
anime some of its mineral resources, and he Is
now stopping at the Rainier hotel He is q
member OF the firm of Bayliss Il Robinson. min
ing engineers; he is also one of the mining en-
gineers of the Northern Pacific, consulting en-
gineer OF the Montana company, and superin-
tendent of the Drum Luman mine. The i'm
mense output of this piece of property is about
seventy per cent gold and thirty per cent silver
Mr.. Robinson, who has mined in Colorado and
Montana for the last fifteen years. said yester-
day: "To my mind it would be folly for the
United States TO begin the free coinage OF silver,
as has been proposed by the silver advocates /
believe that our finances would break down
in the attempt TO maintain against the world
with free coinage the proposed ratio between
silver and gold; and what is more. / do not be-
lieve that the better-informed silver mine own
ers themselves ask for free coinage Congress
has gone as far as it can go for the present with
any degree of safety.
s'Were all the nations of the world to combine
TO hold the ratio between silver and gold the
end might be accomplished, but America can
not do il single-handsd. FOR instance, there is
a difference of one-thirty-second between our
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1891-10-16

ratio and that which prevails in the markets OF
the world. We have about S4o0,ooo,o0o of
silver here in coin, while the rest of the
world holds $4,000, 100000. Were we to
start free coinage that enormous sum
could be shipped to us and the
difference in ratio would give an enormous
profit to present holders. Some people talk
about our coming only American silver. but
how are you going to tell American from Eng
lish silverf If you put duty on the imported
product you make q commodity of silver, and
make 1t difficult for foreigners who buy of US to
pay US so to speak, sin our own coin'
"Were free coinage to be undertaken, you
would find in a short time that all the gold
would be driven out OF the country, and the
inferior coin would be in circulation-a simple
case of imitation OF the currency by supply of
cheap money"

Don't be a spider
and era,ol in these days! Why
not keep up with the nineteenth
century? You would not buy a
steam engine made like those of
a century ago. Then why should
you buy the old-fashioned, big,
drastic pills that grippe and debili-
tate your system
AS great improvements have been
made in pills as in steam engines.
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are
tiny, sugar-coated granules, or pills,
are easiest to take, and never grippe
or shock the system.
They are purely vegetable and
perfectly harmless.
One little Pellets laxative, three
to four are cathartic. They regu-
late and cleanse the liver, stomach
and bowels - quickly, but thor
oughly. They're the cheapest pill,
sold by druggists, because you only
pay for the good you get. They're
guaranteed to give satisfaction
every time, or your money is re.
turned. That's the peculiar plan
all DIR. Pierce's medicines are sold
on.

DIR. Hall's church, and he is also a lawyer
of notable ability and attachments. That
his advice will be of the tn,os Importance
to the prosecution goes without saying. Ills

DIR. Briggs will not have the advantage of

vision: mo professional counsel shall be

PROCESS before any of our ecclesiasticRl jul
dicatories. But II any accused person feel
unable to represent and plead his own cause
or elder belonging to the iudicatory before
which he appears to prepare and exhibit
his cause ~ he may judge proper"
This means that DIR. Briggs could select
any lawyer who was elder entitled to sit in
presbytery, on the occasion of this action,
and thus obtain the assistance Of a skilled
plender. He or his friends might exert i'll
iiuencs to have q lawyer, friendly to his
cause, sent by one OF the churches whose
session they could control. Lawyer Wood
bury, of the Madison Square church, and
one or two others have been mentioned Ne
possible defenders Of the accused professor.
But DR.. Briggs will appear for himself. He
