Not few newspaper readers, seeing
so frequently in the course of none
tary discussions, the expression "at
the ratio Of lG TO /, j." or of q" to l6'
have inquired the meaning Of the term.
The-general idea with regard to the
expression ''lG to II is Tint the value
of gold is sixteen times the value OF
silver; and although that is not very
t,,r wide OF the mark yet it does not
tell everything that should be known.
Besidesit is an explanation Of the eX-
preston that is not definite enough to
make it fully tangible or intelligiblc
The amount of pure silver in a silver
dollar is (within very small fraction)
sixteen times the amount of pgrc gold
in a gold dollar; there being 371 %
grains Of pure silver IA dollar, and
23.22 grains of gold in gold dollar.
Any one who is expert in that very
abstrnse "rlle' Of arithmetic known
as "long division;' will find, If he
make the actual experiment of divid-
ing, that the 37l.e5 grains of silver in
the silver dollar are lG times, or, To be
very accurate l5.99s times as many as
the % 22 grains Of gold in the gold dol
lar Thus there are sixteen times the
weight OF silver in the silver dollar
that there is Of gold in the gold dollar;
and 10 Is on that account that we say
that the value OF gold is sixteen times
the value Of silver, but it will be oh
served that the ratio of 10 TO J had
ori giualIy aud properly only refer
apcv 10 the weight OF the two metals
IA two C jns OF the same worth 1t
w.ull ht scarcely necessary to add,
ev. for those who like to be saved
the lroub'e of thinking altogether,
that the ratio of ''lG TO r. and the''l to
lG. are the same expression, and is
merely varied according as the gold
end or the silver end of the ratio is CON
sidered first

avn rnr COLLrar A SHOW


The action of the regents OF the Ok
lahoma Agricultural and Mechanical
college at saltwater in summarily de.
posing President Murdough is scarcely
less than an outrage. As pres
ident OF the college Prof Muir
dough had discharged his duties faith
fully, and was very popular with the
college faculty and pupils lie was
the victim Of a combination which, not
content with mmiliating him, brought
charges of drunkenness against him
in order that two political parasites
might mold their jobs.
1t is pleasure to know that the
charges were subsequently withdrawn
10y the board and that resolutions were
passed testiiying to the moral worth
of President Murdough. Just how the
combination engineered its villainous
job has been previously told in the
LEADER, and all fairminded people
trust that the regents, both Republi-
/ cans and Democrats, who were in
volved in the combine, may suffer for
their corrupt conduct and ingratitude.
Dark clouds have hung over the still
water college for several years past
owing to chicanery in the supervising
boards, and just so long as the regents
succunb to outside political Influences,
the college will never be success.
Discord in the board, prevents har d
mony in the faculty and this in turn
does not tend to maintain discipline
among the students. Parents are not
particularly anxious to send their
children to a college where constant
lnagging is the principal feature Of the
daily program.

PHltADELPniA. July Within the
past few days Philadelphia, has been
flooded with copies Of letter bearing
a foreign postmark and containing a
most outrageous attack upon Governor
Hastings. II is learned that many
copies OF this letter have also been re-

was written by Major William II.
Hastings, who left here last February
in a peculiar manner, leaving more
than suspicion in the minds OF his
friends of an impaired mind.
The letter, ostensibly addressed to
his brother, the governor, but which
he has hpparehtly mailed tol everyone
whose name he could procure. makes a
demand for S23. 900 claimed to be due
him. The demand is accompanied by
statements so vile and indecent that IL
wo1ld be impossible 10 put them i'm

TO show the diseased condition of the
mind OF the writer Among other
