er's illness he went to Speaker CRISP
and req1.ted him tn send for Repre-
sentative Tucker, OF Virginia, the Sec
ond Democrat on the committee, and
to ask HIM to see that there was no
delay in getting the bill before the
house. This the Speaker did, and
from that time until now Mr.. Tucker
as acting chairman of the committee,
has had the advice of Speaker Crisp
upon his every act, and in addition
he has had kilograms from Mr.. Fitch
telling him to push things. That the
bill is not already before the house is
not the fault of the committee, but Of
the absent Democrats. If the house is
to do anything promptly a quorum Of
Democrats must be in their seats
every day, and, in view of the large
Democratic majority, it ought not to
be difficult to keep them there. The
Republicans have shown that they
propose taking advantage to the
utmost OF the too liberal rules OF the
house to block legislation whenever
there is not quorum of Democrats
on the floor The report that Presi-
dent Cleveland was encouraging
Democrats to stay away from the
house id order to prevent this bill be-
ing taken up is a villianous libel
brought out solely for the purpose Of
creating dlssension in Democratic
ranks.

WHAT is an Honest Dollar?

WHAT Is an Honest Dollar?
No one of average intelligence who
desires to know what an honest dollor
is can possibly be deceived in relation
to it. There are just two classes of
honest dollars. One is metal dollar
which is money, and all money must
have within itself the intrinsic value
OF its face. The other honest dollar is
paper dollar, but it is not money it
is the mere representative of money,
and it is honest because the holder
hereof can receive for it at amp time
its face value in gold.
We have hundreds Of millions Of sill
yer dollars coined by the Government
which are not in fact honest dollars.
The original silver dollar coined by
this Govern nent for eighty years con-
tanned enough silver to make it quite
the equal Of dollar in gold. There
fore all HE silver dollars coined by
this Government until the present
fee silver craze began were absolutely
honest money. Our present silver
d liars, which are worth from 56 to IS
cents, are sayed from utter discredit,
and the Government from open shame,
and the business OF the country from
general convulsion, only by the fact
that the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS its OBJ
legation to redeem them in geld. 1t
could just az well be issued in paper,
for the silver dollar Of to-day is not
money, but the representative of mon
ey, and the Government being respon-
sible for its redemption makes il an
honest dollar in the hands of the hol-
der for the reason that the Govern
ment will pay the holder over 40 per
cent more than it is worth.
Money may ce plenty or scarce, and
meney may be cheop or dear. 1t may
be plenty and good, or it may be plen-.
ty and cheap, and cheap money is al
ways destructive to all the legitimate
business interests Of the country.
There is no reason whatever why this
country should not have an abund-
ance Of money for all emergencies
without attempting to cheaper it.
Our greenbacks were cheap money
outing the war for the reason that
they bought ouly two thirds to one
half az much as a dollarin gold. That
was cheap honey, and everyone who
used it suffered by it. 1t was one of
the memorable necessities OF war, and
being successful in the war, and in re-
storing our national credit we were
enabled at an early period to resume
specie payments, and thereby make
our greenbacks of equal value with
gold. The Confederate money was
also cheap money, but as they failed
in the war their moneo became value
less. Cheap money can never benefit
any industrial or commercial class.
1t is in itself fraud, and strikes at
the integrity Of all business operations,
but eAen when money is cheap be-
cause deprecated every man must
earn dollar before he can get one.
Making money plenty will not diffuse
it amongst the people. When money
EXITS the thousand sinews of indus

it. OF all suicidal errors, especially Of
debtor classes, demand for cheap mon
ey is the worst. It benefit no class, it
