WHAT FREE SILVER COINAGE
WOULD Do.

The advocates of free silver coinage at
expulsion of gold and the establishment of
an exclusively silver currency In the United
States, may learn a lesson from the recent
annual report of the Mexican National
the Mexican National was built largely
with foreign capital, and the interest on
its bonds and mortgages which are held
abroad is payable in gold. AS it's earnings
and receipts are in silver dollars worth
only 30 cents or less in gold 1t must earn
and pay to it's creditors about twice as
many silver dollars as 1t owes gold dollars.
In other words. far it's foreign credit
ors are concerned. ii takes In half dollars
and has to pay out dollars. and as the
value of silver compared with gold has
been steadily depreciating for many years
past, the company's interest account has
Increased In the same ratio. Thus in 1891
the conversion of silver into gold to pay
its foreign bendholders cost the company
s2SS,6OO premium: in 1892 the premium In
creased to $5SS.745. and in 1893 to $761, 929.
The same thing would happen In the
United States on a larger scale If we should
come to a silver basis. II is estimated that
the interest and dividends paid to Euro
pean creditors on American securities
amount to s12O.OOO.OOo a year. This sum- of
course, has to be paid in gold. AS long as
silver is maintained at par with gold there
is no loss. but If we should adopt the sill
yer standard the earnings of our rail-
roads and the receipts Of the government
would be In silver, while their foreign liza
biities would have to be paid in gold. The
effect would be practically to double our
foreign Indebtedness, making the annual
interest account something like $4,000, 900
instead of s12O,OOOOOO Like Mexico, we
would take In half dollars and have to pay
out dollars. This would soon bankrupt
every railroad in the United States and
probably the government itself OF course
the dangers here limited at would be avoided
under an international ratio. and that Is
the true solution of the silver question.

Milwaubeeans Not all Brewers.
Milwaukee Sentinel

Milwaukee Sentinel.
The tacit assumption by the outside world
that the Inhabitants Of Milwaukee are all
brewers is continually cropping up. The
New York Herald brings this subject to
mind again in its account of the reported
engagement of the actress, Miss Odette
Tyler, TO a son Of the late Jay Gould. 1t
says that she went TO Milwaukee last
spring, when 1t was said she intended to
marry man named Gould, wealthy
brewer in that city. The fact that there is
not and never was a brewer named Gould
in this city is entirely beside the question.
1t is the established custom in the outside
world of referring TO any and all men of
Milwaukee as brewers that calls for mild
rebuke. No doubt the writers who con-
slider this city to be city OF beer and all
its inhabitants brewers conjure up delight
full visions of the life here, and it may be
admitted that the possible attractions Of
such city have something distinctly allur-
ing to a vivid Imagination coupled with a
fondness for beer. No doubt many OF us
would not object to being brewers. more
especially wealthy brewers, but even in
Milwaukee the field is sadly limited For
the sake of variety and veracity at least
verisimilitude, we suggest to several eS-
teemed contemporaries that Milwaukee men
be occasionally classed something be-
sides brewers. Proud as we OF our
mighty brewers, We want the rest Of the
community to have a fair show.

If any reader of the Journal was surprised

The Governor of Iowa has sent a special
TO the fact that Gen. George w. Jones, of
Dubuque, will celebrate the ninetieth ami
versary of his birth on the 18th of April,
and suggesting that he be invited to visit
the capital on that day and that he be re-
ceived by the members OF the Legislature
in joint convention. The Legislature re-
sponded by adopting joint resolution in
accordance with the Governors suggestion.
The recipient of this graceful attention
has had interesting career He was
born in Vincennes, Ind, in 1904, twelve
years before the State was admitted to the
Union. At that time the Territory of In
diana included the present States of In
diana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Iowa, lying west of the Mississippi river,
was part Of the Territory of Louisiana,
which was acquired by the United States
in 1903. Shortly after he had attained his
majority young Jones anticipated Horace
Greeley's advice by moving West. When he
Sellieu III iowa IL ua1 DecOIue a part OF
the Territory of Michigan, and in 1886 it be-
came part of the Territory of Wisconsin.
Iowa became a separate territory in 1898
and State in 1916. General Jones was
identified with the political development of
the State during all these changes. In 1896
he was elected a Delegate to Congress from
the Territory of Michigan, which at that
time extended from Lake Huron to the
Missouri river. He introduced bill in
Congress which organized the State of Wis
consin, and he was largely instrumental in
organizing the State of Minnesota. He
gave its name to the State of Iowa, and on
its admission to the Union was elected Its
first United States Senator and served two
terms. He gave their names to more than
a dozen of its counties, and has lived to see
it grow from a frontier territory to a great
ard prosperous commonwealth. The action
of the Legislature is a graceful recognition
of the services Of one of the founders of the
State.
