The small alterations which may
occur in the relative value OF the two
metals are Of no importance in compari-
son with the overwhelming ruin which
would attend such q fall in prices as
would be caused by discarding one OF
the metals. The trihing disturbance in
commercial transactions which may re-
suit from an occasional petty brokerage
in the exchange Of the metals justities
no such violent measure as the demoneti-
zstion of either Of them. Such remedy
would be absurdly dlsproportionste TO
the evil, and would be much worse than
the disease. The great interest which
the world has In the general SteadinesS
Of the value Of money, as compared with
property and services, should not be
sacrificed in order to escape theoretical
and fanciful inconvenience.
But even il, through the monetary
Legislation of important countries, or
from any other cause, the value OF one
of the metals should fall, not only rela-
lively to the other, but in Its relation to
other things, such fall could only mani
fest itself in rise Of general prices. 1t
will be reassuring to remember that no
fall In the value Of metallic money nor a
resulting rise In prices has ever proved
other than blessing to the world.
The frat instance Of the establishment
Of q single gold standard was thatin Eng
land, in 1915, under the administration
Of the second Lord Liverpool. This
policy, as may be assumed, was adopted
in furtherance OF the views put forth in
the celebrated letter on the coinage Q8O5)
of the first Lord Liverpool to the king.
In that letter no better nor more plausible
argument was presented in favor OF the
adoption Of an exclusive gold standard
than this one, that alternate changes from
silver to gold and from gold to silver, In
the actual circulation, resulting from
fluctuation, in the relative value Of those
metals, were q "greGt detriment to the
public" Lord Liverpool did not point out
the nature Of the "detriment" caused by
such changes, nor has 1t ever been pointed
out by any Of the advocates Of a single
standard. Even II it be admitted that
such fluctuations in the relative value OF
the metals may occasionally occur in the
future, as they have in the past, and that
first one and then the other will, at In
tervals, preponderate In the channels OF
circulation, as 1t has not been shown
that they have caused any substantial
injury or even inconvenience In the past,
it is not probable that they will cause any
In the future. The general public would
be subjected to neither inconvenience nor
loss In such changes. The smaller coins
used In retail transactions will always
necessarily be silver coins. In the larger
transactions, representative paper, based
on 10th Of the metals, would on occount
Of its greater convenience, be universally
used in specie paying countries. The
inconvenience arising from gradual
displacement, In the reserves Of banks
and Of public treasures, Of one metal by
the other, would scarcely be noticed by
the managers Of those repositories, and
would not be felt at all elsewhere.
THE EMPLOYMENT OF BOTH GOLD AMI
The advocate., 1892-07-06


discardlng either apply equally to both.
But others apply only to silver; and still
others apply to that particular metal
with peculiar force.
tt might be expedlent, or even neces-
sary, to abandon the double standard
if, fret, the combined production of both
had increased and was increasing to such
a degree, in comparison with augment
ing needs for money, as to threaten their
serious depreciation, and such an in
crease of the prices Of commodities as
would derange commerce and subvert
the Justice Of contracts; or II, second, 1t
could be demonstrated that fluctuations
in the relative supply Of gold and silver
produced immediate effects upon their
relative value, and that silver was being
produced In such abnormal excess, and
gold in such abnormal deficiency, con-
sldering the demands for both metals re-
spectively, as to threaten such con-
tinuing and indefinite widening Of the
relation of value between them as would
render necessary frequent changes in
their legal relation; or if, third, there
were such changes in the habits Of man
kind, or in the amounts Of money used,
as to render silver, by reason Of It's
weight and bulk, less fit to be employed
as money than formerly.
INCREASED YIELD OF GOLD AND SILVER
SINCE 1848.
The first supposed case, of deprecls-
ton in the value of gold and silver by
reason OF their excessive production, in
wolves wide range Of discussion. 1t is
prososed specially to consider the In
crease Of the production and stock Of
the precious metals since the California
discoveries, the effect of that increase on
prices and productive industry, and the
necessity Of continuing increase to
meet the demands Of the increasing
population and commerce of the world.
The gold yield of Australia and Cali
fornia was at Its maximum in the five
years ending with 1865. The aggregate
production of both metals was also at It's
maximum during the same period. Since
then the combined annual production OF
the two metals, instead OF sugmenting,
has diminished. The annual production
of silver has increased, but that increase
has been more than counterbalanced by
the annual decrease in the yield of gold,
Since 184S the great bulk of new gold
has been yielded by our Pacific states
and by Australia, and nearly all Of II
from slluvlal washings, which are yielding
less year by year. 1t Is not controverted
that all the probabilities are that the
auriferous production Of both regions vii
continue to fall off, although perhaps
slowly. 1t Is true that new sources Of
supply may be discovered, but it is i'm.
probable that new sources equally pro
life will ever be discovered, and it Il
only barely possible that they will bC
discovered and made available within
any near period. 1t has been said that
"unlike agriculture, there lO but one croI
in mine;" and it may also be said thai
the greater the number of mines anC
gold fields worked out, the less chances
there are of finding new ones Discover
les are hoped for In Africa on the Anna
zon, and In the Guianas; but in all those
regions the development of new mines

was so much pleased with your article
on trees that with difficulty can keep
silent. therefore beg leave to give utter
ance to few thoughts upon that subject.
not that you failed to fully ventilate the
whole subject, but feel that il is subject
full of meaning and that too much crnnot
be said upon it. Cut Gown the female
trees! How absured; as no regard in set
ting out the trees Was had to male and
female. Go to work to cutting out the
female and in many places you will cut
all the trees in front, in other places half
on one side and one-fourth on the other.
There would be no uniformity in the trees
that were left. On one side perhaps all
male affording shade, on the other side
none. Uniformity in distance of trees
gives uniformity in growth and that
growth gives beauty and perfect shade
reaching out to the extreme limits of the
city. II any are to go, let all go male and
female, other trees cannot be successfully
grown among the large trees that might
be left. But what an advance, when we
would go TO work to destroy the trees that
during the extreme heat OF the season
cheer US by their foliage and delightful
shade. Spare that tree; the man who set

stand as q monument to his memory. Ii
the attempt were made to TINS destroy
how many would feel as Pollock
felt when the storm had wrenched a limb
from his favorite tree. As it fell he sat
down and wept AS though friend had
fallen. Spare the trees. if the axe ii used
let it be to trim them up that the tops may
spread out above the residences, reach out
and form an arch over every street in the
city. The body of the tree seeks protec-
ton from the extreme heat and reaches
out for light and TO that end the limbs out
farther and farther. Mr.. Editor, your
theory is correct Trim up. 1t gives
full view of residences, free passage for
air and a beautiful and inviting shade.
Cut down the trees and fifty will be pros
trated with heat where one is troubled
with the down of the floating cotton seed.
There is much that l would like TO say but
will leave il for some FIXTURE time.

POOR LO WILL VOTE.

A gentleman from Ell Reno who was in
the city yesterday is authority for the
statement that there is hardly any ones
ton but what the Cheyenne and Arapaho
Indians of the territory of Oklahoma will
vote at the coming elections. He states
that number Of the leading lawyers of
Oklahoma have been looking up the law
on the subject and have found nothing
that can dIsqualify poor 10 from casting
a freeman's ballot, provided, of course,
that he is old enough. OF course this
applies to Indians only vino have taken
their land in severalty. Ii these lawyers
are right about the matter and the Indians
are allowed to vote the whole political
calculations may be upset for John Lo
is AN unknown quantity in politics
and there is no means of telling to which
party he will jump. The Alliance was the
first party to claim him on account of his
kicking qualities and his natural fondness
for IA scheme by which he could become
wealthy without any unnecessary work.
The Democrats claim him because be is
feminist the government and fond of fire
water, and the Republicans claim him be-
cause they have been the only politicians
under whose protecting guardianship they
have progressed so rapidly in civilization,
etc. There are about 500 of them who are
competent voters if the general opinion of
the lawyers who have Investigated the
statutes, is correct. Dennis Flynn will
get his share of them if kissing every
papoose in the territory will do it.

Joe Coats is the name of the alleged
thief that the readers of the EAGLE will
remember as having caused considerable
excitement a little over week ago by
giving Policeman Snyder chance to shoot
at him in his attempt to escape arrest for
a supposed theft of harness which he
had in his possession. He was subse-
quently caught about five miles north
west of here, by Officers Har
mon and Aspey. No charge could
be substantiated here for any harness
theft, but the authorities knew they had
caught a man who had done something
wrong and consequently held him to await

Anthony arrived in town with the neces-

THIRD DISTRICT POLITICS,

j. Kansas Morgan, editor of the Neods-
sha Register, passed through the city yes
terday on his return home from Newton
where he had been attending the organiza-
ton of a new lodge of the Brotherhood of
Station Men. In reply toa query as to the
political situation in the Third district
Mr.. Morgan said that while Clover beat
Perkins by Il large majority yet the pros
poets were very good for Humphreys
election, although his opponent was a
much more able man and smoother politi-
clan than Clover Continuing he said
that many of the farmers who had voted
with the Alliance in $50 were now quietly
awaiting on opportunity to vote against
it, because of the injury that organization
had done the state. Nj. Morgan said also
that Governor Humphrey was quitSpopu-
lar with the wage earners because of the
evidences of good will for that class which
he had exhibited. in several instances,
such as the appointment of W. NJ. Mitch
ell, railway conductor, for railroad COM
missioner, the issuance Of proclamation
making Labor Day legal holiday and in
every way showing his appreciation of
organized labor. With these encouraging
features the gentleman thought Mr..
Humphrey had an excellent prospect of
being successful this fail.

HORSE THIEVES Ar BENTON:

A farmer named Alex Thomas from
near Benton, Butler county, was in the
city yesterday on trail of pair of thieves
who broke into his barn Monday night
and stole therefrom two young mares val
ed at $50. Mr.. Thomas was at Ell Dorado
and when he returned home at - o'clock
Monday night he missed his mares when
he went to put up another team and he
Immediately took their trail. The thieves
had evidently about two hours the start
of him as Mrs. Thomas heard the family
dog barking about 10 O'Clock, but was
afraid to go out and see what the matter
was, although she suspected something
wrong. Suspicion is attached to a young
man who WAS discharged by Mr.. Thomas
two or three days ago for making an at
tempt TO steal some wheat from his gran
airy. Mr. Thomas tracked the horses for
nearly seven miles west of his farm but
had to give up the trail An account OF the
extinguishment OF his lantern light

NEVER SAW SUCH CROPs.

Mr. James Frisby of Ohio was sin the
city yesterday for few hours, for the first
time, and TO say he was surprised would
be tame language. He thinks Wichita the
wonder of the decade. He took ride on
every line of electric cars, and the more he
rode the more he grew surprised. He was
as much astonished at the country as the
city, and says that several days inspection
has convinced him that Kansas takes the
flag in her wheat crop, and that from pres
ent appearances her corn crop will he i'm
mense. In several counties in which he
has visited, he says, the country is in as
high state OF cultivation, and will yield
as abundantly, as the bottom lanis in
Ohio along the Naumee, the ScIoto and
other streams.
He further said that be was under the
i'm preston that Kansas farmers were
poorly fixed in the way of buildings, gen
eral improvements, etc. but be finds them
as we'll fixad as the best in the older states,
and, hereafter, be will know what credence
to give to newspaper items of crop failure,
poverty and dreuth in Kansas
