Necessary For Redemption Purposes
As the secretary has now more than
6,Wa0Go silver dollars available for the
purpose, and as the dep tnent has very
properly adopted the policy of redeeming
the treasury notes in gold and does not use
silver for tie purpose, il cannot be said
that further coinage of silver is necessary
for REDEEM p,ion purposes. The silver bull
lion purchased under the provisions of the
act of 1880 should be held as trust fund,
as it was certainly intended to be, for the
security Of the notes issued for its pur-
Chase.
