Evidently there is something back Of
the stamp which determines the accepta-
bility or exchangeable value of money
and that something, in the case of prop
erty money Of full legal tender power I'M
der free and unlimited coinage, is the
knowledge of the real intrinsic value of
coins on the part of men who make a
business of buying and selling money,
and whose estimate is always accepted by
every community as the determination
of the real value for which current money
will be received.
This is not saying that the use of any
metal like gold or silver as money does
not increase the value of those metals,
for it does But the fact which stands
out clear and undeniable, the fact viii CHI
President Walker, the ablest bi-metalist
in this country constantly asserts-con-
trary to the "fiat" view which Mr.. Tai
bot seems to maintain--is that under free
and unlimited coinage of silver or gold,
the exchangeable value of the coined dol
lar cannot be greater than the commercial
value of the metal of which either is
made. This fact disposes of Mr.. Talbot S
tfiat'' idea of coinage value under free
coinage distinct from and greater than
the commercial or intrinsic value of the
bullion.

Mr.. REED THE CHOICE OF NEW
ENGLAND

Commenting on the letter of Mr..
Charles Marseilles, which was recently
copied into the PRESS from the Indepen-
dent Statesman of Concord, N. H, Sena-
tor Chandler says:
We publish in another part of this
issue communication from Mr. Charles
Marseilles in advocacy of the candidacy OF
Hon. Thomas B. Reed for the presi-
dency. Mr.. Reed is New England IS
choice for this high office While some
Republicans are still thinking of Harri-
son, Mckinley, Allison and Lincoln, the
sentiment for Reed is gaining ground in
every State and community of the East
try are looking especially in this direction
for the man, for they know that he can
be trusted on the tariff, on finance, and
on all questions that affect the great in
terests that have made the eastern part of
this Union the greatest and richest coun-
try in the world. With Mr.. Reed at the
head of the government the safety of our
interests will be assured. Mr.. Reed S
long service in Congress has made him
familiar with all public questions and
with the different views prevailing in
various sections of the country. He has
fixed convictions and the courage and
firmness to assert and maintain them
When Mr.. Reed began to show his
mettle in the Speakers chair of the House
he electrified the patriotic sentiment of
the country, for what he did was the as
sertion of the fundamental principle of
all republican and popular Institutions,
that the majority shall rule The De-
mocracy reviled and insulted him, but
he never fiinched or showed disturbance
of temper, for he knew he was right and
that in due time his enemies would &C :
knowledge it. The adoption of his meth
cd Of counting quorum by the last Con-
gress was one of the greatest personal
triumphs won by any American states
man since the war. Now his ruling is
finding place in every parliamentary
body in which the necessity for its en-
forcement arises from the assertion of
the right of the majority
We agree with Mr.. Marseilles that the
time has come for the unfaltering Repub-
lianism of New England to assert itself
in the selecting of Presidential candi-
date. 1t would not do this now if it had
not the man, but it has him, and this
man measu res up to the full presidential
standard, and is surpassed by no other
man in the country. New England must
unite solidly on him, and not divide it's
forces as it did in 1880, when favorite
son of New England was to be presented.
With solid front she is likely to be in
vincible in the convention.

The s.Fiat. Theory of Money.
(Lewiston Journal. }

Hon. Geo. F. Talbot, in a communica-
tion in the PRESS, maintains the doc
trine of "fiat" in respect to the coinage
of silver, as he also maintained it several
years ago in respect to greenbacks. He
sums up his position as follows:
Why will prudent people to-day, why
will they tomorrow part with the owner
ship of valuable things that cost labor,
gladly take agreed quantities of gold or
silver COINED disks in exchange? Be
cause they think they can work up the
metals into finger rings, gold headed
canes watch cases, forks and spoons?
Does such a consideration ever enter the
hard head of one business man? He
takes the disks because they have sym
bolic and conventional value, and because
he can with them command another
house, another steam-engine, whenever he
may want them. He takes them as val
liable alone in their representative char
acter, for he will take with the same
alacrity bills. notes and check, which not
only do L.; not have but cannot have any
n lnsrlhs1o yan ne the colo The paramount
everything that subserves the use of
money, whether metallic or paper, is will

conceive that he had established the
theory that under free coinage the govern
ment stamp gives the value which money
possesses regardless of its intrinsic value
Commercial value of the metal of which
it is made) by simply citing the fact that
most men take money at it's stamped
value because other people will SO take it,
without thinking of it's intrinsic or re-
deemable value.
Mr.. Talbot has lived long enough to
know that there have been times even in
the history of this country when money
stamped 81 by the government has been
accepted only at great discount-once for
less than half its stamped value, and for
IL years less than it's stamped value. So
it appears that there is something back
OF the government stamp which deter
mines the exchange value of money, in
other words for how much sit will pass. !"
Or if Mr. Talbot prefers to confine his
inquiry to metallic or property money
under free coinage, and to leave out of
the account credit money which is sim
ply promise to pay money, then he can
not nave lost sight of the fact that simply
because the commercial value of the sill
yer IN silver dollar was per cent more
than thu gold dollar between 1910 and
1860, silver dollars refused to circulate to
any considerable extent, because the sill
yer dollar was worth cents more than a
gold dollar and gold was almost our only
full legal tender coinage-showing con-
cluslyely that the commercial value of the
silver bullion and not stamp on silver
dollar determined its value

The Republican leagues convention
which met at Cleveland yesterday will
not probably strike any "keynote," or
attempt to forestall or dictate the work
of that more authoritative body, the
Republican national convention, which,
meets next summer. The most the con-
vention should do, and the most it prob
ably will do, will be to wake up the Re-
publicans, especially the younger ones,
by exhortation, and incite them to earnest
work. 1t is no part of its business to
formulate the creed of the party, or to
boom" this man or that man for the
Presidential candidate. The moro it
does of either of these things the less
effective will be it's work in legitimate
channels. 1t should let these things there
fore severely alone. There are plenty of
points upon which all Republicans fully
agree to furnish material for exhortation.
and there is no occasion for the convention
to touch subjects in which there is differ
ence of opinion inasmuch as it is not with
in its province to settle them. The only
effectof throwing one of these subjects into
the assembly is to create discord, and de-
preciate if not destroy the influence of the
convention. The convention can make
no declaration on the money question
which can bind anybody. 1t therefore
should let it alone

very liberal towards Catholicism, and
when in Massachusetts he incurred the
bitter hostility of the A P. A. on that

these facts. Probably to good many
