Powers OF Congress.

The great Webster held that the
congress had no power to demone-
tie either gold or silver. 1t was a
gross usurpation when done and
without warrant of authority
What the congress has power to do
under the constitution is to coin
money and not to destroy either
silver or gold as money. 1t has just
as much right or power to destroy
either silver or gold money. 1t has
just as much right or power to de-
stroy gold as to destroy silver. But
tits without constitutional right to
do either. The congress has no lie.
gal power to discriminate against
either metal. 1t has no power to
coin gold or silver, but it must coin
gold and siIver-both coins. That
is what the constitution requires
and authorizes, and nothing beyond
this.
