HOW THE SILVER DOLLAR Is KEPT


In his statement before the Banking
and Currency Committee. a few days
back when questioned about how the
silver dollar, if worth only fifty cents,
will buy as much as a gold dollar Sec
rotary Carlisle said:
1--WE maintain the parity OF the two
metals by receiving them in satisfaction
OF any debt due the Government, and
paying a man whom the Government owes
money gold if he wants it, If any creditor
of the Government wants silver he gets
If: If he wants gold ne gets 1t. In that
way we keep the two metals on a parity
with each other. In that way We should
continue 10 do So
We have repea, eddy made this state
ment in our articles on the subject.
When, during the recent political cam
paign, Senator Daniel made his speech
at the Richmond Theatre, and asked the
audience If any one would take less than
a gold dollar for any silver dollar he
might have, We explained that it was
because the Government accepted the sill
Yer dollar in payment Of all dues TO il
that IT kept its place alongside of a gold
dollar. bus that if it should decline to re-
ceive the silver dollar as a full dollar in
payment Of dues 10 it that the silver
dollar would at once drop 60 its bullion
value. Nothing Instantaneous to the
gold dollar would happen to it, however.
II the Government should cease receiving
gold dollars in payment of dues TO it.
The gold dollar would continue to hold
exactly the same place il held before.
whether the Government accepted il or
whether Il did not
TIE president of one Of the New Eng
land banks said to the Committee on
Banking and Currency on THURSDAY:
If a free coinage law silver were
enacted he would so out of the banking
business and put his money into real
estate. Free silver would ruin business
and values. lie began to invest in real
estate before the late election. but when
ne saw the free silver advocates being
showed under he changed his mind"
In holding on TO free coinage the South
is boycotting itself and destroying all
values in her limits.

This is q great victory for the bond

lives in Richmond. The bondhOlders pro-
pose 10 buy in the road and then re-
organize. They have adopted plan Of
reorganization. but whether II VIII stand
at the final cannot now be stated.
This plan provides for the extension OF
the system from Lyons Junction 10 Sa-
Vannah distance II scventy-fOUr miles.
The completion Of the link gives the new
company d line seventy-tWo miles short

ST. PAUL, Nov. 22.-The state relief
committee, at it's meeting at H1nckley,
closed up it's work for this year as far
as possible The general warehouse

any cases which may arise, and to see
that none of the sufferers come to
want. The treasury is now empty, but
the commission will adopt some means
to furnish relief to any persons in need
until the legislature meets, when that
body will be asked to make such appro.
priations as may appear necessary.
The hearing of cases, however, is at an
end, and none will be reopened for the
present.
The work at Sandstone may not be
closed for at least two weeks. The
commission has built 40 houses at that
place and many of them are not yet
completed.

1900, OG0 feet of lumber and has built
in the neighborhood Of 275 houses.
Complete outfits of furniture and other
household goods have been supplied to
over $50 families. Where the commits
sion expected to take care of 1000 pep
