notice the lcontemptible demsgogy
OF thus act, or the stupidity which
it presumes in the people, we have
only sought to show that silver
dollars are to-day legal tender for
the payment Of all debts, public and
private, except where otherwise ex-
pressly stipulated in the contract. Il
is not otherwise expressly stipulated
in the contract in the national obli-
cations outstanding, and every dol
lar OF such obligations is payable to-
day in silver. The only reason why
they are not so paid is because, at
the dlCtation of the gold pirates,
every administration of both political
parties has Disseminated against
silver, and exercised the discretion
which the law permits but does not
demand for their payment invariably
in gold. The law has stopped the
coinage of silver, but it has not sus-
pended its legal-tender power. Gov.
ernment officials of both political
parties have conspired with Wall
street robbers to deny this legal-ten-
der power in practice in the payment
of public obligations. That is the
whole story, and this practice will
continue until the people know
enough to vote for somebody besides
republicans or democrats for presi-
dent of the United States and for
members Of congress.

The free coinage of silver would be the

fRlo Courier, April 26.
The gold-bug administration has
been running its mints to their full
est capacity now for over two years
in the free coinage of confluence and

have trial of free coinage of chaos

The Kansas City Journal has got 80 far
on the road toward Populism that it defends
and praises "Coin's Financial School," AS
chat is only a reprint Of ''Sevsn Financial
OOnspiracieS," the depths TO which the once
sensible paper has fallen is pitiRble. The
esteemed Journal ought to have guardian
appointed. Journal, April q.
The above shows conclusiVely that
the editor Of the Journal has never
read either of the books he refers to,
otherwise he would not make the
mistake of saying that the one "Is
only a reprint" of the other. There is
no similarity between them. This is
characteristic of republican Journal
ism, however, as the less a republican
editor knows of anything, the more
he assumes to know, and the bigger
ass he makes of himself in the dis
play of his ignorance.

Is SILVER A LEGAL TENDERr

IA vAAS NHAAay SAoS0 AAVl8 WAaAOH Az Bp-
pears that il is not at all understood.
AS the subject Of free coinage is now
attracting so large a share Of public
attention, il may be well to devote
sufficient space to it to arrive at q
correct conclusion.
No one in this controversy denies
that up to 1873 silver was a legal
tender in any amount for all debts
public and private. It is q very
simple matter, therefore, to deter
mine it's present status by an exam
instion of the act Of 1873 and subse-
quent acts in relation to the use of
SILVER as money.
The act Of February 12, 1873,
simply dropped from the coinage
hitherto provided for at American
mints, the standard silver dollar of
4121 grains, and substituted the trade
dollar Of 42O grains IN it's stead; and
section Is of the act prescribing the
character and weight of the coins
thereafter TO be issued provides that
"they shall be a legal tender at their
nominal value for any amount not ex-
ceeding SIS in any one payment"
BY the act of July %, 1876, (sec-
tion p, it was provided "that the
trade dollar shall no longer be a le-
gal tender" and its coinage was
thereafter further limited. Nearly
two years later, February %, 1873,
the bill known as the Bland bill be.
came a law. This act was entitled:
An aOt to authorlzs the coinage Of the
standard silver dollar, and TO restore it's
legal-tender character.
Section I Of this act provided:
That there shall be Uoined, at the several
TniRta Of the United Ssates, silver dollars Of
the weight Of four hundred and twelve and
3 half grains troy, of standard silver, az
provided in the aot Of January eighteenth,
eighteen hundred and thirty-seven, on
which shall be the devices and supersOrip-
tions provided by said sot; which coins TO-
getheE with all SILVER dollars heretofore
coined by the United States, Of like weight
and 6nsness, shall be a legal tender at their
nominal value, for all debts and dues pub
Ito and private, exOsrh where otherwise OK
psoasly stipulated in she contract.
The gold.bugs got in their work
even in this act when the silver men
had q clean majority in both houses
Of congress. The exception which
made the gold contract possible be-
longs IN the same category of legis-
lative infamies, with the exception
upon the greenbsck and the other
acts by which the gold pirates have
bsqn enabled to plunder the public
nader sanction Of law for more than
b quarter of century.
Mr. Coney, in his criticism of the
/ Capital, makes some grave mistakes
ID reference to this exception. We
ball notice these mistakes in
sheir order because they are quite
pmlnon. He says this provision
lfnlted its the silver dollarsO pay
p4 power in redeeming our ma
ial obligations" That Mr.. COney

ity above cited. ~ This resolution
passed the senate January 25, 1875
and the house on the 18th of the sam
month. (3) The Bland act "to author
lze the coinage of the standard silve
dollar, sad restore its legal tends
character" was approved Fsbruar!
rs, 1873. Inssmuoh, therefore, as tn
above resolution declares that all th,
bonds issued by the United States, O.
authorized to be issued, were pay
able at the option Of the government
in silver dollars, and that it would
not be a violation Of the public fsltI
nor in derogation of the rights of th,
public creditor to restore the colnagD
Of silver as a lsgal-tender in payment
of said bonds, when the Bland &C
became a law it did so restore tn,
IegaItender pOoUer of Sjlver dollars
for the payment of said bonds.
1t remains now to show the bear
ing of subsequent Legislation. Mr.
Coney's second mistake is in saying
that 'this act (the Bland act), was re
pesled by the act of July Ia, $780,
Section 5 of that law reads as fol
lows:
That as much of the act Of February %
1873, entitled "An act to authorize the coin
age of the standard silver dollar, and TO re
store lts legal tender character" as requires
the monthly purchase and coinage Of Oh,
same into standard silver dollars of not les
than 100000 nor more than $4,000 OOl
worth of silver bullion, is hereby re pealed
And that is the only part of the sC
Of February 28, 1878, that was re-
pealed. The legal tender power o.
silver dollars was IN no wise inter
rupted by the act of July IA, 1890
Furthermore the treasury noteI
issued in accordance with this Rcl
were likewise made "s legal tender in
payment Of all debts, public and pri-
Yate, except where otherwise expressly
stipulated in the contract" There
was no further legislation upon thu
subject until the repeal of the pur'
chasing clause Of the act Of July IA
1890, by the special session of con
gress in 1893, aud that it may be seen
that this repeal bill did not affect the
legal tender power of the silver dol
lar, we igive the bill entire. II is al
follows:
That 80 much Of the aot Of July IA, 1880
entitled IAN act directing the purchase oi
silver bullion and the issue Of treasury notel
thereon, and for other purposes" as directs
the secretary Of the treasury 70 purOhss
from time TO time silver bullion TO thC
aggregate amourt Of .5OO,0OO ounces, or 81
much thereof as may be offered in saoI
month as the market price thereof, not OK
cssding one dollar for S71.25 grains Of pur
silver, and 10 issue in payment Of such pur
ohases treasury notes Of the United States
be, and the same is hereby repealed; and
is hereby declared TO be the policy Of th
United States TO continue the use Of boil
gold and silver as standard money, and d
coin both gold and silver into money o

thorized to be sold for "coin" with
which to redeem the grsenbaCks. Now
turning to the act Of July IA, 1870, we
find:
That the secretary Of the treasury is hereby
authorized to issue in a sum or sums mot sx-
OeedinR in Che aggregate 200 million dol
lars, coupon OF registered bonds Of Che
United States, in suoh form as he may pre-
scribe, and Of denominations Of $50, or
some multiple of that sum, redeemSble in
coin of the present standard UGEUs, stc.
This is the ''act to authorize the
refunding of the national debt" and
section 2 of this act authorizes the
secretary Of the treasury to sell and
dispose Of the bonds authorized "for
the redemption of any of the bonds
of the United States outstanding,
and known as fve.twenty bonds at
their par value, or he may exchange
the same for such ive-tWenty bonds,
par for par" etc.
It will be seen, therefore, that all
of these bonds into which the five.
tWenties were funded, are payable IN
coin of the standard value Of the
coin of July IA, 1870 But there is
still more precise proof of this fact
in concurrent resolution of congress
upon the subject. This resolution
which passed the senate January 25,
1873, and che house January 28, is as
follows:
WHHRHAs, By an aOt entitled IAN s,t TO
strengthen the public credit" approved
March 18, 1869, IL WSs provided and de-
olared that the faith Of the Uaited States
was thereby sOlemnly pledged TO the pay
