last week when Che silver dollar

Last week when the silver dollar
was worth siaty-seveD cents the
free coinage people were bravely
predicting that free coinage in the
United States would at once SO
swell the demand for the metal
that the dollars intrinsic value
would very soon rise to the value
OF a dollar In gold. They did not
claim that It's value would ever
rise one cent above a dollar in gold.
In brief, they held that its value
would be raised from sixty-seven
to one hundred cents or that just
thirty-three cents would be added.
New that the silver dollar is
worth only f%ity-seven cents the
interesting question springs up,
would not this same free coinage
In these same States nov enlarge
the demand for the metal I'm the
same degree and adding just thirty
three Gems to the value of the coin
after all 3dst give us a dollar worth
ninety cents?
From which 1t Is clear that the
parity of gold and silver as money
can only be maintained by some
definite arrangement among the
leading commercial nations.

When the ADVERTISER spoke
last week Of fiat money 1t used the
term in the everyday and ordi-
nary sense as 1t is accepted by the
"plain people" and ourselves among
them. Webster's international
Dictionary, regarded a fair inter-
prefer of English If not political
economy, defines "fat money" as
"irredeemable paper currency, not
resting on a specie basis, but de-
irving its purchasing power from
the declaratory fiat of the govern
ment issuing it' and that is enough
for us so long as we do not care to
discuss the question from the stand
point of an economic specialist.

The editor of the ADVERTISER
was one of those who voted for Mr..
l.. Koppel, o whiskey dealer, for
delegate to a county convention
last spring, to which (and we re-
call 1t with peculiar ~pleasure) he
was elected.
This same editor also voted for
one B. n. Tiilman for Governor in
November and it now turns out
that we then voted for a whiskey
dealer in comparison with whom
our friend Koppel fades away into
comparative insigniicance.
We feel bound to remark just
here that while every man is en-
titled to his private opinion and
"you pays your money and you
takes your choice" we would
rather risk getting the "pure stuff"
from Koppel than Tillman.

Pisa's Leaning Tower.

The famous leaning tower of Pisa is q
campanile or bell tower. 1t was begun in
liza by the two famous architects, Bonano
of Pisa and William Innspruck. The tow
er, which is cylindrical in form, is 179 feet
high and 30 feet in diameter. made entirely
of white marble. 1t has eight stories, each
with an outside gallery projecting several
feet from the building and each deco
rated with columns and arcades. In the
center Of the tower flight of $50 steps
passes up to the summit 1t is called the
leaning tower from the fact that it inclines
some 80 feet from the perpendicular, and it
is not generally known that this inclina-
tion, which gives the tower such remark
able appearance, was not Intentional. At
the time that it was about half done the
error in measurement was perceived, and it
was guarded against by the use Of extra
braces in the further construction of the
building and an adaptation of the stone in
the highest portion. There are seven bells
on the top of the tower. the largest of which
weighs 1900 pounds, and these are SO
placed as to counteract as far as possible
the leaning of the tower itself.

A creole. strictly speaking, is any person
born in this country or the West Indies Of
European ancestors; also any person born
in or near the tropics, and this is the sense
in which the word is usually employed. The
use of the word, however, has been by some
restricted first to children of foreign parents
born in Louisiana, and, second, to children
of Spanish or French parents born in Lou
isiana, and then, in the north, the word
has been perverted so that it is believed TO
imply some strain of negro blood in per
son to whom it is applied. 1t does not inn
ply any.hing Of the sort.
