The free and unlimited silver coin
age bill that passed the Senate on
the 18th inst. was introduced by
Senator Vest as a substitute to the
financial bill, which embodied Sena-
tor Stewards free and unlimited coin
age clause. Several amendments were
offered to tho financial bill, which
contained many features outside of
the free coinage section. Vest, in
order to insure speedy action and to
free the silver clause from other
measures introduced his bill as sub
stitute, which was Immediately voted
on, the vote standing 80 for and ~
against, as follows:

1t is refreshing to see such emf
neDt gold bugs as John Sherman APP
pealing to the free coinage men to
spare them and their Wall street in
terests a few years longer. If the
friends Of silver had only patience,
said Sherman on Monday, and would
wait until the element of time had
acted on the silver law Of the last
session, the policy OF the United
States government and of the French
government together with the use of
silver in the South American states,
would lift up silver again to the gold
standard, and that would give them
gold value for their silver.
Patience has long ceased to be a
virtue, and the time has come for
forcing the fighting. The people are
demanding the free coinage Of silver.
The masses are really awakening into
new life. They have become de-
termned to learn for themselves what
for ages has been confined to the
fow. The bankers no longer have a
monopoly Of financial learning. The
farmers are arousing themselves into
united action, aud doing more think
ing on the subject of the peoples
money than they ever did before
journals that formerly confined their
columns to the farmyard and husl1-
ing bees, are now beginning to talk
about the nations linancies; farmers
are reading up all they can get upon
the subject, and the very calmness of
tho Oscala conference had within il
the signs of silent determination to
learn what is to DO learned, then &c
ahead in an organized manner. And
the moro tho farmer and the masses
generally read and study and think
upon the subject of finance, tho more
firmly are they convinced that the
free coinage of silver is the only per
manent solution of the problem be-
fore tho country, and that the longer
FREQ coinage is deferred the moro So
rious and complicated does the prob
lom grow.

AN DOLLAR.

The Omaha World Herald is q %cleverly
edited and interesting newspaper. but the
attitude which it has lately assumed on
the subject OF silver is by no means fat
tering TO its intelligence. In explaining
its attitude on this question it goes on to
say:
The free coinage OF silver may or it may
not aid in achieving an increase in our
circulating medium. If the free coinage
bill provides that bullionaires can have rs
cents worth of silver stamped "one dol
lar" at the expense OF the people, the
World Herald may be classed as opposed
to free coinage of silver. II, however,
free coinage be allowed IN dollars CON.
yer, then the World Herald is in favor Of
free coinage.
In other words, the Omaha paper
makes no account OF the appreciation in
the value Of gold during the past seven.
teen years, or its legal ratio of value com-
pared with silver. 1t would, no doubt,
coin silver in the ratio Of about | TO %, Or
perhaps even 25-A ratio never before
heard of in the statistical history OF the
universe. In the 375 years intervening
between 1897 and 1872 the maximum
separation Of the two metals was as | to
lot. Our Omaha contemporary is an
advocate OF the honest" dollar, that is a
gold dollar which. measured by its pur-
chasing power. has appreciated in value 80
per cent since the demonstration Of silver
seventeen years ago by Germany and the
United States. 1t should not forget
that the silver dollar as at present consti-
tuted, containing 3Ilt grains of pure
silver and sit grains of pure copper as
alloy, is precisely similar to what it was in
1873 when it commanded a premium over
gold, coined as 1t was her in the ratio
Of ! part of gold to 10 parts of silver.
The AMOUNT OF silver contained in a silver
dollar. which is quoted in Wall street as
being worth rs or 80 cents, passes current
everyw here as being worth an honest dol
lars worth Of anything which gold will
purchase. Even the combined assaults
Of the gold bugs and the speculative ma
pipulatioa Of silver reduced to a commod.
ity by adverse legislation have not been
sufficient to destroy that palpable fact.
Let US by all means have an honest"
dollar, but let US not forget that this can
only be effected by bringing gold down to
its normsl level and ~gauginG the value Of
Silver from that stand point. The silver
men, too, want an honest dollar-one
that will place the debtor and creditor
classes on the equitable footing which
they occupied before silver was degraded.
This would be an honest dollar in the
fullest, freest and most equitable sense OF
the term.

The piano has long been the means of In.
nicting the most exquisite torture on those
who were uuwillingly compelled to listen
to its strains ~. evoked by the miscellane-
Gus performer. There has lately, however.
appeared a tendency on the part OF invent,
ors TO attempt To mitigate this form Of hu-
man mis-, ry, and the latest variation Of
a recent idea Of covering the instrument
with plush is to bring out a library"
piano covered with leather, a material
which would At the same time lend itself
TO ornamental effects and considerably re-
ducc the volume OF sound.
Another device which will doubtless be
hailed with gratitude by fathers Of fam
HES. schoolmasters, schoolmistrcsses and
their neighbors hns just been patented.
This invention Is called 1.-THE pianophone."
and Is designed to meet the wants of stu.
dents of keyboard Instruments, by allow.
ing them to practice scales aud exercises
without interfering with the convenience
OF involuntary listeners, while still able
themselves to hear the results Of their per.
formanCe. It consists Of q 57-t2 octave
keyboard with keys OF the same size and
description rs the ordinary pianoforte, a
simple but effective striking notion, and
the substitution OF rletallic plates for the
ordinary strirgA.
These being accurately tuned to the or.
dinury scale, yield suGi" lent sound to make
the playing on the instrument distinctly
audible to the player. and even (as in the
cnse OF the Silent v~ioliu') a source Of
pleasure to him, while IL Is inaudihle at

WARREN ALLEGED POSI-
TON


The Denver Republican prints a spe-
cial dispatch from Washington IN which
Senator Warren is represented IS being
ogcr=helmed with indignation because
his alleged attitude on the silver question
was mistaken BY Senator Stewart. In
the dispatch letters from Warren to
Stewart and Stewart to Warren are given.
Warren asks Stewart if he didn't assure
the senator from Nevada that he War
rem would vote for an amendment pro-
vidIng for the free coinage Of American
silver and a mint charge. based on
the difference between the American
mint price aud the London market
price, to be made on foreign silver. Ac-
oording to the letter produced by the cor
respondent Stewart Acknowledges that
when the matter is brought to bis atten-
ton be 6uds he has inadvertently done an
injustice to the senator from Wyoming.
II recollect distinctly" says Stewart
that you came to my desk, got a oopY Of
the amendment and told me that you
would yete -fori it and that you would try
to induce others to do so. / take pleasure
in saying that it was not particularly sour
fault, or your fault at all, that free coinage
for the American product was not passed.
As this feature of so-called free coinage
never came to an issue it Is very safe for
Warren to assert what he might have
done. Senator Stewards first statement
OF the case was very generally believed
for the reason that it Tailed 80 closely
with Warren's usual methods of pro-
cedure. People here have gotten 50 in
the habit Of finding Warren going with
all his might in one direction while he is
trying to give out the impression that be
is going in the other that they we're not
surprised to learn OF him playing good
Lord and good devil on the silver question.
But now that things have gotten down
to this issue, it might be well to inquire
what Warren has against silver anyhow
Isn't it here and not 10 Europe that the
reserve stock OF silver is held, and would
not the spectators against whom he al
fects extreme prejudice) reap as rich a
harvest under American coinage as they
would under absolute free coinage? As
matter of fact wouldn't spectators of all
sorts gain more, and wouldn't the peo-
pie suffer more-in fact wouldn't the
question he lett in much the same unsat-
isfActorY condition that it is now even
though the amendment which Warren al
leges he would have voted for had actually
passed? By what occult process could
silver produced in the United States be
distinguished from foreign silver.

A Boston lawyer who resides in the
suburbs is the owner of a dog that GER
tainly possesses the instincts of an attor-
ney. The other day he saw another dog
carrying off a tempting looking bone.
A second dog followed at a short dis
lance. The lawyers dog quickly con
ceived a plan of action worthy of an en-
inent legal mind. He Immediately
brought action against the dog with the
bone. The third dog at once quickened
his pace, and lost no time in instituting
supplementary proceedings in his own
behalf. This assistance proved equiva-
lent to a decree for the plaintiff, for the
lawyers dog left the third dog to bear
the brunt of the litigation, and seizing
the bone fled to his w kennel, where
possession was truly nine points of the
law.-Boston Traveller.
