The New Silver Coins.

The new half dollar is a fact, and
the new quarter and dime soon will
be. Authority for new designs was
conferred by the act of Sept 26, 1896,
and the director of the mint has pre-
pared them. with some assistance in
the way of suggestions for the practi-
cal work by Charles e. Barber, en-
graver of the mint. On ono side of
the new half dollar is the ideal female
head representing Liberty, looking to
the right, with an olive wreath around
the head and small Phrygian cap.
There is a break in the line Of stars
below for the figures showing the
year, and one above for the words,
TN God We Trust"
On the reverse or back of the coin
appears the seal of the United States
as adopted in 1882, namely, the IA
nous spread eagle" holding in the
right claw an olive branch, in the left
a sheaf of thirteen arrows and in the
beak the scroll with "E Pluribus IN
UNI" The meaning of all this is sup
posed to be; Here we are. Many
united in one. We prefer peace and
the olive branch, but are ready for
war" The quarter will bear the same
designs. One side of the dime will
be as on the present one; on the other
will appear the same head as on the
half and quarter, but the words "In
God We Trust" will be omitted. As
the amount of silver IN each remains
the same, there is no occasion for spec
Ial hurry and the coinage will. as
heretofore, merely supply the waste
and work over the worn and NATL
ated coins.

Please allow me a small space In

dence to show that the g. o. D. Will
adopt some of the Alliance demands,
thereby hoping to humbug the people

A Kansas republican exchange is in
great distress about Senator Plumb.
1t fears that, now he is without a re-
publican colleague from Kansas. he
viii not be able to perform the ardu-
Gus duties required of him as Senator
The same paper stated few months
ago. in scolding Senator ingalls,, that
he had never done any real work in
Washington for his constituents, and
that Senator Plumb had practically
been the only working Senator from
Kansas for many years. If Senator
Plumb has done the work single-
handed in the past he can do it again.
But it is not probable that Senator
PETER will be a mere fgurehead at
Washington. Possibly his influence
will be limited on the floor of the Sen
ate, but he will be a hard worker in
the departments and will render his
neutrality-suspicious., democrats
and Alliance men-good service. The
disposition among republicans OF
Kansas to belittle Senator PETER is
mean. He is not a brilliant man, per-
haps, but he is honorable, faithful
and industrious, and he will be re-
spected at Washington as such.-Star,
