The reason why the ratio of lG to was adopted in coining gold and silver was the fact that the ratiois the aycr- age annual proportion in which the two metals have been produced through many years. The proportion in which nature gives them to man is the proper ratio for their use by man.

Many sincere friends of bi-me.alism assert it impossible to do anytAing for rehabilitation of silver as q money metal. without inducing Great Brit ain tounite in the effort made. As the great creditor nation, whom the rest of the nations Of earth owe more than one thousand millions of money. 1t is Great Britain's advantage to collect principal and interest of that enormous sum in money metal which will annually buy more Of the commodities other nations have to sell or its equivalent in those com modltics. Great Britain never yet abandoned q commercial or financial advantage over another nation except under stress of ccmpulsion: and those who adyocatc waiting for Great BFit- ain to uid ifi raising silver. are indi- rectly advocating gold mono-metalism.

The right way would be to investigate the list. cancel all fraudulently se- cured pensions, and criminally prose cute those guilty of fraud.
 Now the position taken by many of those supporting the present policy of the administration is on a ground diametrically opposed to the position laid down in the veto of the dependent pension bill, numerous instances are cited of men drawing pensions who are in receipt of handsome incomes from professional or other employ ment. and the assertion is made that such men should not be pensloned. Had NIT. Cleveland approved the de nendcnt pension bin they would not be. But under the badge of honor theory every soldier of the late war who is physically incapacitated from earning living by manual labor is en- titled toone and should have it.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE 2

Honorable W. j. Bryan, of Ne
braska, presents in "Coin," week
ly Journal published in Chicago,
under the title Shall the Coinage
of the Constitution be Restored"
an able paper, from which is TAX en-
the following
"The i'm portant question then is,
What should we do? The east de-
mands the unconditional re-
peal of the silver purchase
provision and appeals to the
democratic party TO redeem
the pledge made in it's platform but
the party answers that it will not
tolerate garbling, and that its plat
form must be taken as whole.
The same plank in which the Sher-
man bill is denounced as "cowardly
makeshift," demands bi metallism
and the coinage of both gold and
silver on equal terms. Certainly
the last part of the plank is as i'm
portant as the first part. Yes, ii is
infinitely more important and the
party will hardly violate the spirit
of the whole plank to fulfill the let
ter of part. 1t is interesting to
observe that those who clamor for
the immediate repeal of the Sher.
man bill always stop the discussion
at that point; they have planned
nothing beyond, "Just repeal the
law and wait" There is here
after. What provision will they
make for that? In the first place
they blame the Sherman law for the
export of gold and for the reduction
of the gold reserve. That is unfair.
If exporters wish gold they can OBJ.
tain it by the presentation of green
backs. The coin certificates may
be used for that purpose,
but they need not be so
used. If we destroy them all the
drain of gold will continue just as
long as the demand for gold is
greater abroad than here. So long
as we have paper money payable in
coin, and the government is willing
to pay out the gold on the same,
gold can be taken out of the treas.
ury for export, and if the govern
ment refuses to pay gold it will be
obtained from other sources so long
as those abroad are willing to pay
more for it than the people at home.
The much abused treasury note has
answered and is answering an i'm
portant purpose. How shall we
keep up with the increasing popula-
ton without the issue of silver GER
teficates or bullion notes? 1t is es.
timated that we have in the country
nearly *25 per capita. Our popula-
ton is increasing at the rate of more
than 100000 annually. (Popula.
ton is not the only factor, but it is
an important one. 1t would re-
quire, therefore, an increase of about
fifty millions annually to keep pace
with the population. Where will
this additional supply of money
come from if We stop coming
silver and the issue of silver
certificates? How shall We replace
the national bank notes as they are
retired, not to speak of coins lost
and the shlinkage by abrasion?

are so anxious to tear down our
