SOUND MONEY DEMOCRAT
Correspondence of the DEMOCRAT.
Mr.. Editor:--

Mr.. Editor
The democratic party can very well
and easily settle all its differences on
the silver question within the party.
There need be no hard words or hard
feelings or extreme action in the con-
sideration of the money question. Dem
ocrats can adjust the whole matter with
in party lines and thus preserve PARTY
organization and party efficiency.
While I am what is now called by
way of distinction 'sound money DEM
ocrat" shall fight all battles within
party lines and shall be governed by
the majority of the party and obey its
deliYersnces on this as on all other
questions. / Go not expect to be read
out of the party, nor do l wish to read
any other member out, on account of
my own or his individual views and
holdings on the money question.
Let me give few Of the reasons
which have influenced and helped me
to conclusion on the money issue, for
1t is an issue and very live one.
1t is fact which all must admit that
to have both metals current thoy must
be equal in value. Things Which are
equal to the same thing are equal to
each other. The dolla, of silver must
be equal to the dollar of geld in every
way even down to the trial of melting
it in the crucible. If it is not, then
whatever of difference there is between
the two must be made good by the cred
it OF the government.
The silver in dollar when melted
into bullion is worth at the present time
40 cents. And the reason why OIL
present silver dollar is worth 100 cents
is because the government is now able
to redeem it in 100 cents worth of gold
Take silver dollar to the treasury a,
Washington and you can convert it into
a one dollar silver certificate, present
that certificate to any of the subtreas.
arers of the government and you can
convert il in to gold dollar. The Fl.
nancial world knows this and hence
40 cents worth Of silver is foated at 100
cents, for two reasons first, the govern.
mcnt stamp proclaims it dollar, Sec
ond, it is able to make it dollar by its
ultimate redemption in gold.
The reason the government is now
able to make it a dollar is because of its
restricted coinage, none other. Take
away this ability. which il done hx

VISITOR AT OUR INSTITUTE

Ed. DEMocRAT:-
Last week at your Comfy Insti-
tute this "Visitr" enjoyed the kind
rccognitious of the Teachers whose
whose many courtesies were highly
appreciated.
+ | had not expected to see half as
many IN attendance.
The people of your town have
assured the teachers, by the hos
pitality extended duing the sess-
ion ofthe institute. The unusual
number Of the citizens in attend
ance also was very encouraging to
the teachers, but more than any
other one thing to encourage the
teacher was the strong feeling of
sympathy on the part OF all good
citizens for the teachers whose as
sembage on Wed night was so
grossly insulted.
The teachers are worthy of much
commentator for the calmness
with which they endured the out
ngecus speech. There is perhaps
some palliation in the thought and
of which the people of your town
ought to rejoice, viz. "That the
speech was not written inside of
your corporation and was not de-
livcred by Lawrence Co. citizen.
Most Respectfully.

Of mistaken philanthropist he said
he was $50 benevolent, so merciful a
man he would have held an umbrella
over duck in a shower of rain. z"
Again, "Ask q woman to tea party
in the Garden of Eden and she would
draw up her eyelids and scream, " Il

Commentators, said Jerrold, "are
worthy folks who too often write Oh
books as men write with diamonds on

himself in print, "Be advised by me,
young man, don't take down the shut
ters before there is something in the

The earliest bank note in tho posses.
sion of the Bank of England is one dat.
ed Dec. 10, 1899, for 1865. 1t is printed
from an engraved plate, but it has
blanks for the amount, date, number
and signature. Across it are written
memoranda showing that it was repaid
in three installments. In appearance it
is not altogether unlike the modern
note. 1t is noticeable particularly that
in the words, "For the Govr and Com
pa.," the word company" is thus alb
breviated and not into COMP" which
would be more i'll accordance with the
