icos, containing more silver, is worth only
50 cents. Neither is redeemable in gold,
and the question is, why this difference
in value? 1t is not the fiat of the govern
ment, because both possess the same
attributes of legal tender. 1T is because
we adhere to the standard of measure
ment recognized by the laws of trade,
while Mexico has set up domestic stand
ard far below that which dominates in
the exchange between nations. When our
coin returns home it possess a purchas-
ing power equal to gold, hence it is worth
as much as q gold dollar everywhere.
When the Mexican dollar returns home
it possesses purchasing power only halt
as much. | assume not only that no one
desires to see a separation in the values
of our coin, but that no one desires to see
a policy pursued that would debase our
circulation. The legal ratio between gold
and silver as fixed by our laws is 16 to /,
while the commercial ratio is about 81 to
/, The effects of opening our mints to the
free coinage of silver would be to bring
the legal and commercial ratios of the
two metals together, or to reduce
the monetary value of the sill
YER dollar to its commercial value. In the
event of the latter the silver dollar would
be worth only 80 cents in comparison with
the gold dollar, and would therefore drive
gold out of circulation. There can be no
question that with free coinage of silver
the value of the bullion in a dollar would
become the equal of its monetary value
The important question, therefore, to be
determined is. would the price of bullion
20 I'D from 66 cents to $1.29 an ounce all
the world over, or would the monetary
value of our silver dollar come down to
its bullion value, about 30 cents? 1t is
a fact that the commercial ratio of the
two metals has always controlled their
movements in spite of their coinage ratio.
In the act of 1893 the ratio established
was 10 to /. Gold was worth more, and
therefore went TO the countries where it
commanded more silver. In 1884 the
ratio was changed to 16 to /. Silver was
worth more. and the consequence was
that silver went out and gold came back.
The difference in value in the coinage and
commercial ratios was only about three
cents. but it was enough to make, first,
the expectation of gold, then of silver,
profitable. If difference of three cents
in value caused The expectation of gold
from 1893 to 1884. and then of silver from
1874 to 1853, what might we expect with
a difference of 80 cents On the dollar at
present? The advocates of free coinage
assume and all their arguments are based
upon this erroneous assumption, that with
free coinage of both metals at a ratio of
1G to 1 we would have bimetallism. This
assumption is the great desideratum in
the discussion Of this question, and until
they demonstrate that both metals would
remain in circulation, all their declama-
ton about a double standard, bimetallism
and an increased circulation is pure
fustan. Is there the least probability
chat with free coinage the price of silver
would rise until it reached a parity of 16
to 1? Could we by our individual action

demand for its use in the ants; more valu;

BILE because of its properties.
AS nations advance, their commerce
grows, their transactions increase, and q
more valuable standard becomes neces-
sary.
1t is because Of this necessity that so
many nations within the last quarter of a
century have adopted the gold standard.
The displacement of silver has not been
because of any unfriendliness, just be-

a more valuable standard. General Mans

Not only do nations as they increase in
wealth change from the cheaper to the
more valuable kind Of money, but they
reach to q point where money ceases to be
actively used, becoming simply the base
of superstructure of drafts, checks, and
exchanges. This increased demand fol

silver was relegated TO u subordinate posi-
ton. In 1873 the coinage value of the
worlds production of gold was SOC, 200,-
600, while in 1894 it was over $lS0,000,-
600. The value Of the gold product of the
world in 1884 was greater than the an
nual average product of both gold and sill
yer from 1861 to 1865. Not only has the
production of gold increased nearly 100
per cent, but the production Of silver has
increased in a greater ratio. The worlds
production Of silver in 1873 was $S6,S0O,.
900, while in 1893 it was $20S,311 600
Not only has there been large increase
in metal money, but by the device OF
checks and drafts and a system Of ex
changes the capacity of money has been
largely increased. 1t is impossible to cal

compared with 40 years ago, but certain
it is that time and distance have been
practically eliminated. You can place q

vaults of a bank in San Francisco before

In the matter of Franklin 2. Miller, APP
Iplicant for Communication.
Several matters which have been brought
to my attention since the foregoing report
by the board of pardon advisers was filed
should be noted:
The witness, George Miller, denies the
facts stated i'm the affidavit referred to
in the report, but the denial is made
under peculiar conditions.
Judge Edward Gray, who passed sem
tence upon Miller, writes me that: SIN
spite of my disposition to accept i'm all
things as correct the decisions of the
courts i am deeply impressed with the
idea that the circumstances of the killing
do not Justify capital punishment"
IL. w. Dunn, one of the jurors, who it
seems now resides at Weatherford, asks
that the sentence be committed, stating
that he believes now that the punishment
was too severe, because: Gone of the
officers making the arrest admitted that
Miller was working at his bench when
he entered with drawn revolver pointed
in the direction of Miller. About the
same time Miller raised his eyes he saw
the officer standing i'm the door with pistol
pointing towards him; he was quietly
working at his trade, and knowing the
feelings of the officers on that particular
beat towards him, Miller very naturally
thought, as any man would under the
circumstances, that his life was in danger
AND took means to protect same"
AS stated IN the report of the board
it was in proof that after the shooting
and while Riddle was receiving attention,
Miller used language showing malicious
feeling towards Riddle, which it is pre-
summed had some influence on the verdict.

and w. L. GanO. well known citizens of
Dallas, makes affidavit dated July 9. that
he did NOT testify on the trial because of
his disposition to avoid becoming involved
IN the case; that at the time of the killing
he had known Miller about two years; that
he had often heard w. II. Riddle, the de-
ceased. abuse Miller and use extremely
rough language about him, saying among
other things that he should not be al
lowed to live i'm the county. and that if
an opportunity offered he would make him
leave town; that the place of business of
atfiant was within half block of Miller's
shop, and on the morning of the homicide
affiant was standing in front of his place
of business about 60 or 20 yards west
Iof Miller's shoe shop, and after stating
that the officers approached the shop in
about the manner detailed by other wit
nesses, affiant says that Immediately after
Riddle fell. he went to where he was
and remained within 10 feet of Mixers
door until Riddle was removed and Miller
arrested, and that Miller did not make
use of the malicious language towards
Riddle after he was shot as detailed by
witnesses on the trial.
The conclusion of the board of pardon
advisers is approved and the sentence of
Franklin L. Miller is hereby committed

Spencer, Ind, July S.-The Hon. Viii,
liam Bynum of Indianapolis opened his
sound money campaign here tonight. He
spoke in the opera house to large audi
ence OF Owen county, composed of mem
bers of both political parties. He was
listened to by the worker, the business
man, farmers and laborers. He was given
the closest attention throughout. There
was liberal applause when the speaker
made his argument against free silver and
pointed out what he thought to be the
fallacies of those who advocate free silver.
Mr.. Bynum was introduced by William
Hickman and spoke for two hours. He
said:
Ladies and Gentlemen: / am not here
as the representative of any political par
ty and do not assume to speak for any
one but myself. The people of the coun-
try are confronted with the solution of
an important question. The broad eX-
parse OF our territory our varied and
unlimited resources, and the great growth
of our commerce require that we should
have the quickest communication, the
most rapid transportation, the most con-
venient forms of exchange, and as sound
a financial system as any nation ON the
face of the earth. The question of sound
money is one that affects directly the in
terests Of every citizen; it enters every
home and demands the thoughtful con-
sideratiOn of every intelligent mind.
believe that the people i'm every section of
the countr,,7 desire to see the government
maintain sound money. That the advo-
Gates of free coinage, as well as those OPP
posed to the same, favor maintaining the
largest circulation of both gold and silver
aC a panty, and are opposed to pay any
policy which would result in the Danish
ment of either from use. The controversy
is not as to the result to be obtained,
but how to achieve it. No one, presume,
desires to see a policy inaugurated that
would result in the separation of the value
of our gold and silver The cheaper will
always drive out the dearer, and the re-
sui would be the expulsion of our gold.
No person, even if he could afford to do
so, would pay in the more valuable when
he had right to discharge his obliga-
lions in the cheaper kind Our present
circulation consists of about 5000, 10000
of gold, $650000,000 of silver, $346,O00,-
