Not few readers of the Times
Democrat. seeing so frequently in the
course OF blmetallic discussions the ex.
pression ''at the ratio of l6to l." or of
Il to l6, have inquired of us the ex-
act meaning of the expression "l6 to
- or 81 to 49,
The general idea with regard to the
expression "l6 to l. is that the value
of gold is sixteen times the value of
silver: and, although that idea is not
very far wide of the mark, yet it does
not tell everything that should be
known. Besides it is an explanation
of the expression that is not definite
enough to make it fully tangible or
easily Ineligible.
The amount of pure silver ina silver
dollar is within a very small fraction)
sixteen times the amount of pure gold
in a gold dollar: there being 37l.25
grains of pure silver in silver, and
1922 grains of gold in f. gold, dollar
Any one who is expert in that very
abstruse ''rulc' of arithmetic. known
as ''long division" will find, if he ma Ike
the actual experiment of dividing, that
the 37l.25 grains of silver in the silver
dollar are Is times, or, to be very ac-
curate. 150SS times, as many as the
3.22 grains of gold in the gold dollar.
Thus there is sixteen times the
weight of silver in the silver dollar
that there is of gold in the gold dollar:
and it is on that account that we say
that the value of gold is sixteen times
the value Of silver, but it will be OBJ
served that the ratio of Is to | had
originally and properly a reference
only to the weishtof the two metals in
two coins Of the Same worth.
It you'd scarcely be necessary to add,
even fov those who like to be saved the
trouble of thinking altogether, that
the ''i6 to and the IL to l6' are the
same expression, and is merely varied
according As the gold end or the silver
end d TIC ratio is considered first

Some Petty Offenders Treated by Justice
When the case against Felis Gallardo,
charged with having swam in the zanj
on Date street. was called, small boy
srose and faced the court. Gallardo is
by nature youngster of cleanly pre-
objections but his appearance did not in
dicate it, and his condition was such as
to cause Justice Owens to think he had
immersed himself Tor the sport of swim
ming, instead of the necessity of bathing.
After hearing Officer Wilkinson tell how
EN- mbarrased he had felt on beholding
young Galardo in a costume la Adam,
the stern Judge fined the boy 81, but sus-
pended Judgment during good behavior.
A. G. Crary was found guilty of having
committed battery upon the inebrated
person of I. J. Fennessy, last week.
C1ary said that all of the crowd were

against him, he had no rememrb bance of
any OF the circumstances beyond being
Officers Fay and Stephenson testified to
having found Crary on top of Fennessey
giving the latter a severe dfubblng. The
defendant was fined $40 or ten days.
