THE DISHONEST DOLLAR.

The Philadelphia Ledger's estimate OF
the situation 10 the statement that no
national crisis since the war has been 80
vital as the present will he approved by
every one who possesses an adequate
conception Of the conditions now existing.
Those which now confront US in the
financial and commercial world have
been foreseen by many, and, while the
precipice has perhaps been reached sooner
than was anticipated, no one who he'd
any clear knowledge OF the elementary
laws OF social economy could doubt what
the inevitable end would be. 1t is a
function of government 10 define the dol.
lar, prescribing the amount of metal that
il shall contain, and affixing its certif.
cate Of weight and fneness to each coin.
but the government can no more deter.
miae the purchasing value Of gold and
silver than it can ordain the market
prices Of wheat or dry goods.
1t is no more part OF the governments
business to buy silver that 1t does not
want. 1T figure fixed for it by the own
era Of the metal, than 1t is to buy horses
that it does not want, at the stockraiser's
figures. The endeavor TO make the gov
eminent do these needless and impossi-
bic things has brought as into our pres
ent troubles. The government is COM
mittee of reputable citizens deputed by
the people at large to perform certain
well'defned duties, and this committee
is entrusted with certain moneys, contri-
buted by the people through taxation,
wherewith to discharge its duties; but
speculation in silver is not governmental
duty, just as specializing in hay or cotton
is not, and for precisely the same reasons.
Ii we wish 10 be regarded as an hon
est people, and have the world deal with
Standard dollars Of diverse and corr
stanily varying values, any more. than
We can have two national yardsiicks or
two official bushel measures. We must
either retire from business or We must
have some regard for tho Ten Command
men,s and The multiplication table. The
word 'sdollar" must have sons definite
meaning, and the sa,ne meaning every
day and every time it is used throughout
the whole country and throughout the
whole world, or honest trade will soon
leave MS alone, just as 1t would iease any
other set of trirksters and confidence
. operators" The world is very small for
all the trade transactions, enormous rs
these transactions are, and quotations
and transfers 20 round the globe in the
tick OF the clock. Our ocean steamers
as the Ledger describes them, are simply
floating bridges, and We cross on them
from continent to continent in a few days,
but the purchases and sales OF trade d.
over the continents and under the oceans
on wings OF electricity and with almost
the speed of light. In such conditions OF
affairs there is no place for the nation
that does not tell the truth in its financial
quotations and its official coins 1--WE
cannot afford to be pilloried before
the world for our dnplicity In attempting
to cheat our customers, and each other,
by saying that the coin Is an honest
dollar when 1t is only dishonest City

THE BYAY CASE.
Judge RiSiGG Decides in Favor OF
the Recorder.

Yesterday the case of Sray VS.. the
County of Ormsby was decided by
Judge Rising in favor of the county.
Commissioner Bray did some work
on Gardeners road and presented his
bill for $50. The Board refused to
allow the bill, and County Recorder
Ellis, acting under instructions OF
District Attorney MCGOWAN, declin-
ed to issue the warrant, but returned
the Lii to the Board of Commission
srs, who again declined to allow it.
Bray brought suit to compel Record
er Ellis to issue the warrant,
His attorneys, Coffin and Summer
field, asked for writ of mandate
from Judge Cheney, who was then
on the bench in the absence of Judge
Rising.
Cheney declined to issue the writ,
on the grounds that it was not the
proper way to bring suit, but i'll pass
on the case practically decided the
question at issue.
The suit was then brought in the
Justice Court and Judge Hawthorne
decided for the plaintiff.
District Attorney McGowan then
appealed it to the District Court and
yesterday Judge Rising decided as
follows:
SIN the case of Bray against
Ormsby County to recover the sum
of $50 for hauling gravel, to repair
road, it is shown that the plaintiff
is County Commissioner of this
county, and objection is made that
the bill for services rendered should
not be paid for the reason that Law
Of 1889, of this State prohibits 8
county commissioner from contract
ing or participating in any contract
with the county. The law is quite
certain and definite and is absolutely
prohibitory in its nature, and com
| missioner cannot under the act par
ticipate in any business wherein The
| county is concerned. In a case O
extreme emergency or Inconvenience
commissioner may furnish supplies
| under the amount of $50 and while
believe that Mr. Bray rendered tn
services in good faith and as sconom
ically as anyone else could have done
still the law prohibited him from do
ing so and he cannot receive any pa,
for it. If it wero permitted for tn
! commissioners to render any servic,
for a county, for compensation, un
der this law, any commissioner coul'
render all the services for the count,
where the amount was less than 500

ALBERT JAQUA MISSING
His Wife i'm San Francisco Hunting
Him.


The Examiner of yesterday con-
tains the following:
Mrs. Albert Jaqua, young
woman from Virginia City, Nevada,
J is in San Francisco on a search for
her husband, who up to the time of
his disappearance was a railroad
mail clerk on the route extending
from this city through Nevada.
With her she has a month"; old
child All her money has been
used up hunting for the man who
deserted her, and now she is pennl-
less in the lodging house at 142
Seventh street.
Mrs. Jaqua says that in 1888 she
came to this city from New York
and here she met the man who be-
came her husband. He was then a
clerk at the Golden Rule Bazaar. In
November of that year they were
married, Three months later Jaqua
obtained his position as mail clerk
at a salary of 800 month and sub
sequently he and his wife removed
to Dayton, Nevada, where the man S
mother resides.
IL 1891, after short visit in
this city, the family went to live at
Virginia City, where they remained
until the husbands disappearance,
and where two of her children ID.
One morning about two mo1 =
ago Jaqua left home in Virginia
ostensibly to go to work. There was
nothing unusual in his action, and
the woman says there had been no
trouble of any kind, but the hus-
band did not return, A few w p
ago, hearing that Jaqua was in Il
city, she sold her furniture to raise
money enough to pay care fare and
come here. She proceeded to 142
Seventh street, where she had *
come acquainted during her former
residence, and there she obtained i
room without advance payment.
Only 81 80 of her money was left,
but for three days work at house
cleaning she received So, and she has
thus far managed to support herself.
No clew to the husband could be
obtained, and quickly the woman
gave up the inquiry for him and be
gan searching for work. She says
that she tried to have the infant boy
taken into day home to increase
her chances of getting employment,
but the managers refused to receive
it as it could not be fed by hand.
The people at the ledging>house
say that they knew the woman when
she lived here before, and that she
was then deeply interested in the
work of some Sunday school. They
believe her story and they assert that
she Will work if she can find situa-
ton.
The facts of the above case are
that Jacqua was in town few days
ago. He claims that he was divor-
ced from his wife about year ago
and paid her $3.50 alimony,
