COINAGE AS A PRIVATE SNAP.

A silver dollar containing dollars
worth of silver Is a legitimate and honest
coin. A pseudo silver dollar containing
rs cents worth OF silver is % per cent
fraud. The free coinage of the first robs
no one and is private snap for no one.
But free coinage of debased 7S-cent
coin for which the owner receives 81,
robs the public that takes it and is %
per cent bounty to The silver dealer.
The government now coins debased
silver dollars. But the % per cent profit
under the present law, goes to the gov
eminent itself and is no private snap for
silver sharks. The issue between silver
coinage by the present method and by
the free coinage plan, is simply, whether
the public treasury, or private pockets,
are to get the % per cent profit. BY
the present method the government pays
the market price for silver bullion, coins
the silver into lightweight dollars and
lays aside the proceeds in the public
vault. Under free coinage, the govern
ment would coin the bullion into 78-cent
dollars and pay the silver miner or silver
speculator 81, or a bounty of % cents
for each coin. It is simply question
of whether the people of this country
through their treasury department, viii
pay silver miners and dealers 70 cents
Or $l, for rs cents worth OF silver bull
ion.

A Statement.

The Star will state in behalf of it's
editor that the report going the rounds
of the Black Hills papers that man in
Spearfsh was suspected of having some
thing to do with the Hay Greek mystery,
originated in the diseased brain of the
editor of the Whitewood Plaindealer.-
Star.
Say, Mr.. Star editor, you know you
lied when writing the above. The Plain
dealer never originated anything OF the
kind. The first information we had on
the subject was derived from reading the
Star, and in conversation with the editor

PLENTY HORSES.

A Woonsocket correspondent Of the
Sioux Falls Press recently gave that
paper bit OF news which iftrue, is quite
interesting. It is as follows:
ga strange story is brought out by
the acquittal of Plenty Horses for the
murder of Lieut.. Casey. It viii be re-
membered that early last year when the
first uneasiness was manifested among
the redskins that two young men were
murdered by them at the agency. Miss
Ida Cox of Woensocket, who for two
years past has been teaching at Rosebud,
tells your correspondent the following
story in a letter:
i have been watching with interest
the proceedings in the trial Of Plenty
Horses and while I do not rejoice at the
failure to acquit Plenty Horses, / cannot
help but feel that it was judgment sent
upon Lieut. Casey. knew the ieuten-

and urging them not to talk, not to give
any evidence, to tell conflicting stories
etc., etc. On trial, all the Indians were
were acquitted; and soon Casey wal
murdered in cold blood and now hi,

is what some people would call retribu
tive justice, though I don't like to call i
Justice when q cold-blooded murdere
like Plenty Horses goes free.'"

The Times wishes to suggest that in
the mind OF Governor Mellette the Black
Hills care not in it, when official APP
pointments are to be made. The entire
railroad commission of the state is taken
from the eastern section, and yet the
Ellis are not without extensive and inn
portant railroad lines. The Hills have
been recognized, however, by the gov.

tent Of the appointment Of about two
