Hon. r. G. HOrr has been making a
thorough investigation of the charge
that silver was demonetized by a trick
in 1873, and he finds that it has no
foundation. The bill was prepared, he
says, by men who honestly believed
that the silver dollar should be drop
ped and a single gold standard adopt
ed; and it was passed with a full
understanding of its purpose. In other
words, "the great crime of 1873" was
simply a piece of regular legislation,
believed to be for the good of the coun-
try, and nobody was deceived about 1t
In any respect. '

We learn that Scranton has in many ways
received advantages 10 both criminal and civil
matters before justices courts, by having a
licensed lawyer as justice Of the peace. While
our laws do not provide that justices shall be
learned in the law, yet common sense and ex-
perience teach US that II is far better that they
should. II seems 10 us that II we could get
our people To elect Mr.. T. N. Evans 10 justice

well. We also think that II we could elect

Fred Douglass one Of the most
noted Colored men in the world drop
ped dead in Anacosta on Wednesday.
He was born a slave in Maryland in
1917, was fugative in 1888, then pur-
chased his freedom, married white
woman, became an orator and writer
and finally Minister to Hayti. He
was one of the most talanted and re-
markable men of his time, and for
years a personal friend of Abraham
Lincoln, and conspicuous figure in
American politics. He died worth
about $500, 900 and during his lifetime
frequently did not know what it was
to eat a square meal for days.
Few men in history have lived so
picturesque a life as his.
