DEFINING A DOLLAR.

When the country was young 1t was
the habit of our fathers, in all COM
munal complications, to call town
meeting and adopt u series Of set reso-
lutions, and the action was expected
to cure all municipal ills, from a grass
hopper raid to foreign war. That
same faith, ON slightly broader basis,
is attaching to the coming August
special session of congress, which is
hopefully looked to as the possible pro-
WIDER of perfect panacea for the
present financial furry, panic and
storm. There seems to be sort Of
general agreement that something will
be done or can be done to relieve the
terrible pressure and lure money from
its hiding into circulation once more.
But what? Repeal the Sherman act,"
says one; and "Give us free coinage
of silver" says another. The truth
OF the matter IS that neither the one
nor the other will do all that is ex-
pected, even as a temporary measure
Of relief. The needed thing is a dec
laration of confidence by the people
of the United States, whether voiced
through congress or not, that rem
dered dollars worth shall be returned
in the form OF an equivalent dollar.
AS far as coin Is concerned, the dol
lar Is purely extrinslc; 1t is a theory
generally coneurred in, or an idea gem
orally adopted II it were based on a
ten hour days labor of a man; or go
ing still higher in the scale Of econ
omics. on the productive capacity OF
a stipulated area OF tlllable soil, it
would have an intrinsic value, easily

II does not make any difference that

ty-five cash, is a days wages; or that in
the heart of New York city ground
Is worth ten thousand dollars a front
foot. and in the wilderness of Arizona
It goes begging at dollar and a quar-
ter an acre: the fact remains that what
Is desired Is valuable and that which
Is regarded with contempt is lnvalu-
able.
To apply that natural measure of
value to a standard of currency and
exchange, one has to take into consld-
GRAFTON the prejudlces Of mankind; and,
no matter how sound and solid an ar
gument may be advanced for the
adoption of a monometallic or hlmet-
