The expression now being so ire
quen,iy used by newspapers. when
speaking Of the parity between gold
and silver, "sixteen TO one," or the
reverse, zone to sixteen," has aroused
the inquiry in the mind Of many a
reader as TO its true meaning. Many
entertain the idea that its meaning
implies the value OF gold to be six
teen times that OF silver. While this
is a part OF the meaning Of this
phrase, vet i, does not cover the en-
tire ground nor puts the question
into such Light as TO be easily un-
ders;ocd. 1, may be briefly
summed as follows: The amount OF
pure silver in dollar is within a
very small fraction sixteen times the
amount of pure gold in dollar, the
silver dollar containing 57s-25 grains
of pure silver. and the gold dollar
containing asa. grains OF pure gold
Any one, by multiplying the amount
OF gold in grains. by Is correctly.
will find the answer to be ;ritie les:
than s.I.cs. Hence the above ex
preston means .ha. the silver dolla
weighs about sixteen times as heav,
as the gold dollar, and has no refer
ence to the value of either metal
Claim of those advocating free coin
age Of both gold and silver is sha
the two metals can and will be main
famed at ratio if both are on equa
footing. l, stands to reason tina
one must depreeiate it premium
put on the other-as is now the cas-
