Among the numerous letters on the
silver question published by the Elk
aminer was one from correspondent
in Nevada asking whether it would be
constitutional for the States to issue
"trade commodities Of silver and use
them MS money. The Constitution
does not allow til. States either To coin
IN rnpy or to make anything but gold
or silver coin legal teader for the
payment Of debts, but there is much
simpler way OF reaching the same end.
Foreign silver coins used TO be legal
tender in this country, and 1t would
bs perfectly constitutional 10 make
them so again. The Nevada Legisla.
ture, il it choose, can give the legal
tender qualit, To Mexican dollars, and
as Mexico allows free coinage the Ne.
vada mine owners can send their silver
To Mexican minis, have it coined, bring
il back hame and use it ms money to
an unlimited extent. Colorado, Mon.
tana and any number of other States
can do the same thing.

KEEP TmE FACTS IN VIEW.

Senator Voorhees, fired centre shot
in reply to Senator Hale when intro
ducins resolution to rush the repeal
of the Sherman law ON Wednesday.
The Indiana statesman said
The idea Of dealing with this ques.
ton IN the mop, skip and jump STYLE
suggested by the Senator from Maine
il amazing. The Senator forgets that
every curse of the Sherman act comes
home 10 ruost an that side. Not one
vote on oar side was given for that
miserable act. The idea OF the Sen.
ator from Maine appealing to me To-
make haste 10 undo IN "infamy and
fraud" which he himself voted Ia fasten
on this country il about the most re-
freshing thing that ] have witnessed
in 30 years Of public life.
That forms sufficient answer TO
the demagogues who try to divert at
tention from the fact that the Repnh-
lican party is responsible for the evilr
that have come upon the country
through vicious anti silver legislation.
Good for the Hoosier. The man from
Maine must have experienced pain
in vital parts when that shot struck
home.
While the enemies OF Democracy
are using Ill the arts of the pot-house
politician to blind the common people
TO the consequences OF Republican
legislation, and to shift the blame on
the party in power, the patent fact
should be kept in view, that not only
Was the Republican party the author
and tinisher Of The Sherman monstros-
ity, but the inventor and manipulation
and passer Of that cOunterfeit-tht
decentralization clause of the act oi
1878.
Both Of these were Republican con
coctions from beginning To end, and
both ought la be swept away together
IL is fitting that the Democratic party
winch WAS not "partireps cfimins" Ia
either utfense, should be the means oil
the destruction Of both. And il should
not lose ANY opportunity, when Re
puhlicans try TO evade the conse-
quences Of the wrongs OF their own
party, to ,huw tliat all the evils which
are traceahle To either the Sherman
law III 1880 or the other hlunder al
1873. have been brought about through
Republican legislation, aud the ut
tempts now made To throw the burden
ON the Democratic party are vilcr than
the deception by which silver wis de-
monetized, and stupider than the Sher.
man purchase clause which both Dem.
ocrats and Republicans now despise.-
