there be to anybody to suffer such
a loss? Obviously none. There
would be no obligation on any,

There would be no demand for
such a flood of foreign silver, and
no reason why it should be
brought here for coinage. And it
would not be. That is the simple

Free Coinage-What it Means

Aeo dOfOCdtSS WlUf
the argument that if free coinage
OF silver were allowed, all the sill
yer OF Europe and Asia would be
rushed into this country, turned
INTO the mint for coinage into sill,
yer dollars, for which in some
mysterious way not explained, the
Government would have to paw
out gold, and by this means the
European and Asiatic holders of
silver would carry off all our gold
and leave their silver in its place
to the destruction of our finances
and the general ruin of the coun-
try.
Nothing but total ignorance
OF the laws respecting coinage at
the mint can induce such wild
notions. 1t will be we'll, then, to
give a few words of information
on the subject.
Free coinage" means that any
person having precious metals
may deposit the same in the mint
and have them converted into
standard coin free of charge.
This rule extends only to gold.
Any person possessing gold whe-
Their IN bars, dust, plate or other
ordinary forms, may carry it to
the mint and have it converted in
to eagles and double eagles. Sill
yer on the contrary will not be
coined for the private holder on
any terms. Let us see now what
Is done when gold is deposited
for tonnage.
Deposits of gold on reaching the
mint are essayed and their value
in pure metal ascertained. Pure
gold Is gold 1000 parts fne-that
is It consists of 1000 parts of pure
gold with nc alloy or adulteration
of any sort. This standard of
perfect purity is recognized in all
civilized countries. The deposi-
tors gold being ascertained to be
so many ounces Of perfectly pure
metal he is entitled to exactly the
same weight of standard gold
coins. Now United States coin
contains ohe-tenth by weight of
alloy; which Is composed Of a mix
tufe of silver end copper, and
may for all practical purposes be
considered as worthless. There
fore one ounce of gold coin con-
tains nihe-tenths of an ounce of
pure gold and one-tenth of an
ounce OF worthless alloy. 1t is
plain then, that when the deposi-
tor hands in 1000 ounces Of pure
gold at the mint and receives
therefor 1000 Ounres of gold coin,
he actually only gets back 900
ounces OF pure gold and 100
ounces Of alloy. The mint thus
makes a gross profit of 10 per cent
by the transaction.
Of course the expenses of col
mage are to be paid, but it must
be plain that there is still left to
the mint a considerable profit
from the work of coming gold.
An ounce of pure gold is worth by
the mint standard; S2O,671S, or in
round figures S20,67, and in hand
ling 1000 ounces of gold, as above
stated. the mint would make a
gross profit of 100 ounces; or
S2670, 19,wliich the depositor would
have to pay for his free coinage.
If a like rule were adopted for
silver, it will be seen that the mint
would still make in the exchange |
of coin for bullion it's gross profit |
of 10 per cent.
But the law provides that the

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Feb. 2j.-The re-
mantle episode that has startled the com
munity lately was the marriage yester-
day evening of Miss Eunice Mcdowell,
of Steel Creek township, in this county,
TO Mr.. Sid Lowe, of Mt. Island. 1t was
a Gretner Green affair, and it seems was
as unexpected to the parties concerned
as to their friends.
Sunday night Mr.. Lowe drove to Miss
McDowell's home in the country and
spent the night with her brother. He
had never met Miss Mcdowell but once
before. The next day when he started
to leave, Miss Mcdowell went to the gate
to see himself and her brother start off.
She admired his horses very much, and
he suggested that the brother get out and
let him Lowe) take her for a drive. She
was attired in a calico gown and had a
sun-bonnet On.
They started on the drive and finding
themselves in the South Carolina road
he suggested that they go in South Caro-
lima and get married.
They both humored the joke, and
with somewhat a banter the affair was
fixed up. They did go to Fort Mill and
were married. She in calico and sun
bonnet.
The bride is a beautiful girl and one
of the greatest bellies of the county. She
numbers more admirers on her string
