THE SHERMAN LAW.
Synopsis of the Principal Points of That
Now Famous Law

Synopsis of the Principal Points of That
Now Famous Law.
Under It's provisions the secretary of
the treasury must purchase every month
at the market price, silver bullion to the
amount of 100000 ounces, provided
that the purchase price paid shall not ex-
ceed 81 for 37lI grains of silver. Gan
ounce contains 48G grains, so that under
this law the price paid per ounce can
never exceed S1.29 and fraction. AS a
matter of fact the price has never reach
cd 81. Silver bullion simrly means the
silver after it has been extracted from
the ore and Is in the shape of bars)
The silver bullion thus purchased is paid
for with treasury notes issued for the
purpose, in denominations of not less
than 81 nor more than $1,000.
These treasury oies are the same as
greenbacks, in fact they are greenbacks,
and and are legal tender for all debts,
public and private, except when other
wise expressly stipulated in the contract
and they are reaeemable by the govern
ment, on demand of the holders and
when SO redeemed they may be re1ssued,
but no greater nor less amount OF such
notes shall be outstanding than the cast
Of the silver bullion and the standard
silver dollars coined therefrom thu held
in the treasury purchased by such notes.
The treasurer in redeeming such notes
on the demand of the holder may redeem
them either with gold or SILVER at his
discretion.
The law also provides that the treasury
shall up to July l, 1891, coin each month
100000 ounces of it's silver pullion into
standard silver dollars and after July l,
s91, shall coin as much as may be neces-
sary to provide for the redemption of the
treasury notes issued for the purchase OF
silver bullion and any gain arising from
such coinage shall be turned into the
treasury; that is to say If the silver in
the standard dollar has cost the goy-
ernment less than the same amount of
silver, purchased in bullion, the differ
ence goes into the treasury.
The remainder Of the law provides for
the repeal of the Bland law of 1878, OF
which it took the place, and also for the
redemption of national bank notes.
The Sherman law was approved by
the president July IA, 1890 and took ef-
feet thirty days therefrom.

This big fellow was either alarmed or
gorged with food, but ordinarily a good
live worm, a small minnOw or a
graSshopper will tempt a trout
when the fly has failed. The
Adriondacks, New York; Moosehead
lake, Maine, and the wilds OF Canada,
Oregon and California are all great re-
sorts for trout fishermen, but almost
any country brook not too near civiliza-
ton and in a cool or temperate climate
is fairly we'll stocked with this game
fish. Up stream fishing is the popular
method among expert anglers for the
reason that the trout usually lie with
their heads up stream and are conse-
|Quently less apt TO take the alarm when
approached from the rear.
A very interesting sight and one not
very often witnessed is the spectacle az
forded by a number Of trout leaping up
stream. They are as Timber and why
as so many shining steel springs, and
when they come 70 a shallow rifle or .
low dam or fall that bars their further
progress they take a run and jump, so
70 speak, dart out Of the water, and de-
scribing q graceful crescent through
the air land several feet further up the
stream. When a number of trout are
indulging in these ~acrobats, the unini-
tiated observer is apt TO imagine that
they ale playing leap frog.
The salmon trout is even a more won
derful jumper. 1t is said to swim over
20 miles a day when going up stream,
and a waterfall - feet high is a futile
barrier in its way. A fair sized Cana
dian salmon will weigh 20 pounds and
give any fisherman a battle royal when
struck.
The golden trout is to be found In but
n stream on earth, and that is the
creek which rises in the eternal SHOWS
crowning the summit of Mout Whitney,
the California peak that rises 1900
feet above the sea. 1t is said that a
solitary miner, who had prOspected in
vain for gold for days away back in
Is49, became fish hungry one Friday,
rugged up a crude tackle and dropped
his hook in Whitney creek. An instant
later q trout that seemed fashioned OF
the glistening gold he had so long
sought lay az his feet.
1t was very appropriate that golden
trout should fash in the streams Of the
Golden state, but for moment the miner
L...-La LFa ouae ~. nfFan strained in
their quest for yellow metal, had played
him a trick that savored Of mockery.
Later, however, he took the goods the
gods provided and had a dinner Of gold
en- trout that the gods themselves would
not nave despised. The Whitney creek
trout is a veritable fish Of paradise. His
back is golden, red, purple and brown,
and his belly from gills to tail is a vivid
carmine. The usual length Of a big
trout is eight inches, but some have been
caught that were sixteen inches long.
