In gold or silver coin at his discretion.
The secretary of the treasury is requir.
ed each month to coin 100000 ounces
of the silver, bullion purchased under
the provisions of the act, into standard
silver dollars until July 1, 1892. After
that time he is to coin as much as may
be necessary to provide for the redemp-
tion Of these silver treasury notes, and
any gain or seigniorage arising from
such coinage is to be accounted for and
paid into the treasury.
The trouble with the Sherman law Is,
as our correspondent will see, that it
recognizes silver only as commodity,
to be bought, and not as money to be
coined, the same as gold.

ACCORDING to the Agricultural de-
partment, the prospects for the apple
crop are not reassuring. There is a big
lowering of percentages in the Eastern
apple belt; there is only fair crop in
New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland,
and In the Ohio Valley and Missouri
the condition is poor. On the Pacific
coast a good crop is expected. In
Michigan, a good apple state, the pros
pect is only fair crop. In this section
of Ohio the apple crop is an entire
failure.

a flap of the sails aud creaking of
the rigging that might have passed for

EX-GoV. OSBORNE of Kansas, is not
much of bimetallist. He faVors a
single standard of silver. He says that
Europe wants all our gold; and as they
are bound to get the most of it, why
not let them have it. Then with silver

We quote Gov. Osborne to show that
there is quite variety of able bodied
opinions on the coinage question. No

EVERY plate glass factory in the
United States has been shut down, and
10000 men thrown out of employment.
The cause given is oVerproduction, a
tight money market and the arbitrary
methods of the plate-glass trust. Every
plant is said to be now stocked with a
large surplus and no orders coming in.
If any class of workers were sick of
McKinleyism we should think it would
be the glass workers. This industry
was given a protection of 60 per cent.
1t has the best natural opportunities
and facilities of making the best kind
of glass and cheaper than anywhere
else. 1t has, however, trusted so much
to government pap" and "trusts," that
the trade has become extravagant and
completely demoralized and has neg
lected the best methods of production,

information In regard TO this silver quess
tion. Secretary Carlisle said In an open
letter that government had already lost
Sl1, 900, 900 by the purchases Of silver bull
lion.
Now l have understood that the law
provides that this bullion should be coined
into silver dollars to redeem the silver
certificates that were issued for said bull
lion, and Is II not fact that most Of the
silver was bought for less than 80 cents an
ounce and when coined into dollars IL
is worth about sl.30 an ounce. Would
not then the government make 30 cents
an ounce. and is II not fact that tbous'
ands of these certificates will never come
back for redemption, being burned or
lost in some way; and is clear profit to the
government when so lostP Is there q law
in existence under which the government
has right to dispose of any silver bullion
in the treasury in any other way than to
