st. Louis Republic.
Outside of a few badly schooled
theorist here and there who think
that Il Government stamp on any
substance, intrinsically valuable
or not, makes it good money, there
is no opinion in favor of legisla-
tion for fiat dollars. But the Re-
publican monometallists do not
prove q case by repeating day
after day that the silver dollar is
worth 60 cents or 55 cents or what
ever figure the silver bullion quo
tations in gold indicate.
AS between gold and silver,
money metals by the choice and
habits of mankind, the change of
commercial ratio observed since
1871 is chiefly, if not entirely, IA
consequence of m ney legislation
passed by the great nations. This
series of Government enactments
has enhanced the value of gold by
intensifying the demand, and de-
preciated the value of silver by

For Board Of u. w.

The DEMOCRAT suggests the
name of w. e. Spenney, of Col lum-
bus as ii candidate for member of
the Board Of Public Works.
Mr.. Spenney was a favorite for
the place last year, but withheld
his name from the convention be-
cause the candidate for Secretary
OF State was resident of his
county, and he concluded that it
would be for the good of the party
TO not have two candidates from
the same locality.
Mr.. S. is Democrat and a work
er and would add to the strength
of the ticket If he is placed on it.
