The situation OF the Sherman silver

Sherman on Silver.

"What do you think of the appeal of thu
miners of Colorado as to free coinage, f"wa'
asked of Senator Sherman at his home il
Mansfield, O., few days ago.
"It is the strongest presentation that
has yet been made to the Democratic par
ty in favor of it, replied Senator Sherman
'TWhat they say is true. If we should re
fuse to purchase their silver, they wodlt
have limited market for it and the indus
try would for time be crippled or sus
pended"
1.-The truth of the matter is" Senator
Sherman went on, "silver has fallen in val
ne, like most other metals, with the i'm
proved methods of production. We used
to have to pay s100 ton for iron rails
now they can be produced for $40 ton
Aluminium used to be worth nearly al
much as gold; by the present methods we
can produce it for from 80 cents to 81 &
pound. Nickel has fallen in value, ani
silver can be mined cheaper and reduced
at less expense than it could in the past
The processes of smelling it with lead ore
are such that the lead sometimes pays the
cost of the reduction, and silver has faller
in value. 1t will, if the Sherman act bt
repealed, continue to fall and eventually
stand at its market value in the same way
that iron and other non-precious metals
stand"

Of White county, who was shot in the head
at the battle of Shiloh and was believed to
have been buried in the trenches by his
comrades. This man has convinced Mrs.
Newby and her four children of his identi-
ty. Old friends of Newby believe this to
be the man. He applied for pension on
