ADDRESS TO THE PUBLIC.
Issued by the National Executive Silver
Committee-Danger OF the
Gold Basis.

New YORK, June 2O-The National ex-
ecutive silver committee, which met at the
Hoffman house last night, was in session
again most of the day. There were
present Gen. A J. Warner of Ohio,
chairman: Francis G.. Newland of Ne
vada, vice-chairman; L. NJ Rumsey Of
Missouri and Leo Crandall of Washington,
secretary. Hon. Edward Pierrepont was
unable to be present. Senators Jones and
Stewart of Nevada were at the hotel and
gave the committee the benefit Of their ad-
vice. As the result of their elaboration
the committee gave out this evening the
following address to the public.
The national executive silver committee
desires to call the attention Of the country
to the object lesson which is being exhib-
tied in the desperate struggle of the great
financial institutions on both sides Of the
Atlantic to increase their gold reserves to
avoid bankruptcy and ruin. The increase
by one necessarily diminishes the reserves
of the other.
Why should this condition Of things exist
at time Of profound peace and abundant
harvestsl
Why should all the great banking institu-
tons attribute stagnation and hard times to
scarcity Of money, while they are exerting
all their power to make money scarce by adj
herring to the gold standard, when they ad-
init that there is not enough gold to main

having in circulation the 1854, $3.50, 666 Of
gold that was paid for the bonds, and
the sl6S, 200. 900 of national bank issue
based on them-in all 1852, 666, 666-we
have but $1s4, $3.50, 666, OF sl6s, 900, coo
less than we had before the bonds were
paid.
Isn't that plain enough? 1t is not
intended to ''befuddle and deceive"
Rambler or anybody else.
We believe the usual way OF retiring
bank note circulation is to burn the
notes. Can s16S, 00O, 900 of bank notes
be cast into the fire and burned, with
out decreasing the volume OF money in
the country?
The thing that has caused Rambler
to make this blunder is looking at the
government as an entity standing to
itself. II he will look at the govern
ment as the people he will see things
with clearer vision. The money that
the government pays for bonds is the
money that the people pay for bonds.
When the people pay certain sum Of
money into common treasury-the
peoples treasury. mind-and then pay
that money out for bonds, there is no
more money in circulation than there
was before they heaped it up in the
treasury. But when, as result of that
bond purchase, they destroy by burn
ing nearly two hundred million dollars
of money that was in active circulation,
that much is gone out of business and
out of the peoples hands 1t is con-
traction of the currency.

LET TILE TRETH STAND.

| The charge made some time ago that
! the Galveston News was under contract
with the Texas railroads to advocate
their cause is receiving some ventila-
| ton before the International investi-
| eating committee.
In THE GAzETTE'S report OF the in
vestigation yesterday Col. Lowe of the
News is reported as testifying that the
News never had any advertising con-
tracts with Mr.. Waldo, or with the
Texas pool, and that he knew of no
annual tax of $4,000 on the roads to
be paid to the News. Col. Lowe also
testified that the News had contracted
for advertising with the roads separ-
ately, Independent Of the traffic associ-
alton.
Receiver Bonner testified on cross
examination that:
''He wrote to Belo & Co in good faith,
and was acting in good faith when he asked
Duncan 10 file exceptions to the masters
report. After the return of Eddy, and when
he told Eddy about the matter and the lat
ter opposed an investigation, the exceptions
were Withdrawn. There was an agreement
between the traffic association and the Gal
weston News by which the railways of the
statewere TO pay the paper under the head
OF advertisement $4,000 per annum, but the
main purpose of the contract was to secure
the influence of the News in shaping legis-
ton favorable to the railways"
The demand OF the News aud of the
press and of the railroads and people
should be for thorough investigation
of this charge. At its close no sus-
picion OF ''whitewash" should remain
to bear out the too frequent charge of
corruption against the press. The
News has an opportunity to do its guild
an inestimable service by challenging
the fullest investigation. Mr.. Bonner
is reported as testifying to a sale of
influence" Col. Lowe testifies to a
contract for legitimate advertising
made-not with any man or associ-
alton but-with the roads independ-
emily. Let all the roads be summoned.
Let Mr.. Waldo be called. If printed
assessments on the roads were issued,
let copies be produced. Let Col. loves
testimony stand as the honor of the
press: or let Col. Bonner's testimony
stand as the humiliation of the press.
Let the truth be made clear for the
sake of the press.

STIRRING UP THE PEOPLE.

The fight over the sub-treasury Is
raging in Mississippi more heatedly
than in Texas. President Polk OF the
National Alliance and Congressman
Livingston, the Alliance representative
from Georgia, are conducting ''cam-
paign OF education" in that state, and
great crowds flock together to listen to
their speeches. Col. Hooker, Demo-
cratic congressman and one of the
most effective speakers in the country,
is canvassing the state against the SUBJ
treasury, and his audiences are as large
as those that go to hear the two AL
lance campaigners. The people of the
state are wrought up as in an ordinary
political campaign, and the interest is
extending.
That is good for the cause of truth.
Once get the people a-thinking, and
while their logical ratiocination may
not be exact, and may for while in
vOlve them in error, it will bring them
at last to the right conclusions. The
main thing is to arouse them to take an
interest in political work. A big crowd
may think wrong and do wrong as well
as small crowd may, but if they think
at all they are not SO likely to do wrong
as if they did not think. More good
than evil will come of this stirring up
Of things in Mississippi.

TOM LASSlTER KILLED.
Two Prominent Cowmen Meet at Oakville,
Live Oak County. and q Business
Quarrel Results In Death.


Special to the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, June 19.-At Oak
vile, seat of Live Oak county, to-day Neel
Rix shot and instantly killed Tom Lassiter.
The weapon used was a revolver and a
business dispute was the cause. Rix is a
cowman. Lassiter was prominent in cattle
circles and unmarried His brother Edward
Lassiter, owns ranch in Live Oak county,
and is one of the most promident cattle
spectators in Texas, shipping thousands of
head each season to Chicago, ST. Louis and
New Orleans. Oakville is twenty-five
miles from the nearest telegraph station,
and the details of the tragedy cannot be OBJ
tanned. Edward Lassiter, who was at
Pearsan when the killing occurred; char!
tered special train to Beeville, aud viii 90
from there on horseback to ting scene Of
the death.
THE PARTICULARS.
A special from Beeville gives the follow.
ing account of the tragedy: News reached
here to-day of deplorable killing which
took place at Oakville this nlern5ng, Mr.
Tom Lassiter of the firm of Aycfck, 1.assi-
ter & Co. of New Orleans was shot dead by
Neel RiX, foreman of the Lassiter Bros.
ranch near Oalville. Rix rode up to where
Lassiter stood on the street, when both
pulled their pistols and began shooting.
Rix received a painful though not serious
wound in the groin. One statement is that
the shooting was brought about by Las
STEERS interference with Rix's management
OF the ranch. Mr.. Iassiter, having dis
posed of his interest yesterday evening, in
dulged in u fisticuff with Rix. and the cul-
mination OF the trouble came to-day Las
sitter was hit three times. Rix is in Jail
un,ier medical treatment.

IF the cattlemen are going back in
the Cherokee Strip, as is reported, they
will find that Jordan is hard road to
travel when the government gets hold
OF them, and it can not be said that
they won't deserve what they get.
President Harrison ordered them to
vacate the Strip by the LIST of Novem-
Der of last year, but at their earnest
entreaties he gave them thirty days
more, upon the agreed condition that
they would get their herds out by De-
cember l and stay out. If they, or any
considerable number OF them, have now
violated that agreement and defied the
president by returning to the forbidden
lands, they are going to feel the weight
of the presidential displeasure come
down upon them like pile-driver.

ACRITIC CRITICISED.

1t is pleasant to be criticised by a
friend who does it SO amiably as
Rambler does in dealing with re-
cent article in THE GAZETTE. Quoting
the offending utterance, he asks, SIS it
not about time that newspapers quit
publishing such erroneous statements
as the above? Are they intended to be-
fiddle and deceive the people, or don't
the writer's really know better?"
Then Rambler" invites the public
to look at the facts and figures, and he
marks down the figures. He proves
that the retirement and cancellation of
the national bank notes will not con-
tract the currency, but will expand it.
If, he asks, the bank circulation is
only 80 per cent of the par value of the
bonds. then the calling in of the bonds
and their payment by the government
will put in circulation more money
than the national bank notes that are
destroyed. For every 80 cents called in
100 cents will be paid out. For the
Sl6S, 900, 900 of national bank circula-
ton based on s1S4. $3.50, 666 of bonds, the
government will turn loose S1S4, CSC, 666
and will be SIS, $3.50, 666 better off.
There is one thing, however, that
Rambler" has not thought worth
while to take into his calculation.
Where is the s1s4, 1866, $3.50 to come
from?
If he will think moment. he will
see that it must be paid by the people.
The government gets it from them and
turns it over to the owners of the
bonds. When they, the people, have
paid sls4, sec, 666 into the treasury, that
much is taken from active circulation,
and the currency is contracted to that |
extent. When the government buys
these bonds it pays that money out,
and the currency is expanded, or
rather the former contraction is over
come. There is then as much money \
in circulation as there was before it \
was taken from the people by tax
ation-no more, no less.
But when those bonds on which the
sl6s, 600 900 bank circulation is based |
are called In, for which SIS4, $3.50, 666 is
paid, the s16s, 600. 600 is forever retired
rom circulation. Then. instead of

which iron ore is found, and is pub
lished for general information.

llShed Tor general information.
Part one gives an interesting histori-
cal sketch of the various efforts made
from time to time to develop the min
eral wealth of the section, statement
of its topography and geology, and Of
the kinds and manner of occurrence
OF the various ores.
Part two is devoted to consideration
of the fuel supply, very essential
factor in developing iron industries.
1t contains two articles-one by Mr..
John Birkinbine, secretary of the
American association of charcoal iron
workers, on the production of charcoal
and giving the comparative results and
cost of the various methods. The other
| article gives an exhaustive review OF
the various uses to which Ignite is put
in Europe, including its manufacture
into coke and compressed fuel. The
Texas hgnites and their analyses are
compared with those of Europe, proving
conclusively the great superiority OF
the Texas lignites in every respect.
The article concludes with a complete
list OF the German authorities from
whom the information has been OBJ
tanned.
The third part is composed OF de-
tailed reports from the several geolog-
lists who have examined them, describ-
ing the counties embraced in the dis
trict They are Cass, Morris, Marion,
Upshur, Wood, Harrison, Gregg,
Pamela, Smith, Van Zandt, Rusk,
Cherokee, Henderson, Anderson, Hous-
ton, Nacogdoches, Shelby, Sabine and
San Augustine. In each OF these ores
are found, and the area which has been
mapped aggregates 1000 square miles.
The topography of each county is de-
soribed, and every workable deposit of
ore found is located by the names of the
surveys on which they occur, together
with statement of their character and
extent, and analyses of the ores. The
whole is illustrated by map at the end
of the volume, on which the approx
mate locationo f every deposit is shown.
In addition to the iron ores a number
of other materials of value are de-
scribed and located. This includes the
lignites, brick clays, potter clays, fire
clays and the greensand marls, the last |
being of especial interest to the farmers
of that section The timber growth |
and different soils are also discussed,
and the whole Is illustrated by num-
Der OF cuts, showing the position of the |
various beds and strata described.
The information thus collected and |
disseminated is just the kind needed in |
all sections of Texas to develop our I'M
doubtedly rich resources. It is valua-
BILE to the prospector, the manufac-
turer, the landowner and the home
seeker: it is especially valuable to the
farmer and the industrial classes gen.
orally. We hope soon to see every Sec
ton of the state receive equally as
careful attention at the hands of the ]
geological bureau.

THE Democrats Of Texas are prac-

legal tender to supplement the volume of

how are you 10 get this additional cir

shall it be by banking system of some
