That there Is n prospect OF the work on the
new dryIock for the brooklyn Navy Yard being
carried forward to completion at an. early date
Is cause for rejoicing the part OF all who are
Interested in the development and efficiency OF
the Navy. The bunder in the law which COM
PEELED the awarding OF the contract for the dock
to the lowest bidder regardless of his RESPONSE
bllity has been followed by IA most exasperating
series OF bitches. squa bibles and delays. Secre-
tary Herbert has shown a leniency toward the
contractor which, while II might have been profit
able from a political point OF view, has been
ANYTHING but beneficial TO the interests OF the
Navy and the fact that he waited until Congress
had adjourned before calling the dilatory con-
tractor to account gives color to the assertion
that politics, more than dock building was at
the bottom OF the contract. Secretary Herbert.
who was chairman OF the Committee on Naval
Affairs when Secretary Tracy awarded the con-
tract must have known. from his familiarity
with the subject, that the contractor was unable
TO finish his task when In May OF last year. he
summoned Mr. Gilcs to Washington to EEK
plain delay which even then had attracted at
tention. Mr. Gillies may fight the case on tech
meal grounds. but that New-York Is without
drydock large enough to hold vessels Of the In
diana class Is due In no small degree to Secre-
tary Herbert's indulgent treatment or this con-
tractor.

SIXTEEN TO ONE PUT TO SLEEP.
Tho Cause OF Free Silver Hns Lost Ground
During the Last Ycnf.

Tho election of Nov afforded but
few opportunities to test Tho strength of
the Tree coinage people since "COin ut
School became their Bible md "lG to
J" their watchword. In every case
where free silver WINS matlo tho chief
issue the silverites havo either been de-
fcatcd or have lost ground since last
year So unmistnkable is the result that
both of the old parties will surely drop
the silver issue in 1896, not only from
their national platform, but from many
of their state platforms, which hereto
forc nave truclilcd to the free silver md
cheap money advocates.
Perhaps the hest test was mado in
Kentucky, which, for the first time in
its history, has elected Republican, for
governor. Bradley was elected not he
cause he was II Republican, but because
no was sound money man. Hardin
WAS defeated because no insisted upon
making FREQ silver the issue after his
party had nominated him on sound
money platform. i.cn;utky is strongly
Democratic and w0nld have elected
Hardin had no decided 10 cast his lot
with Carlisle ami h!DC;e"ry, instead of
with Blackburn. He now goes down
with Blackburn and tho other cheap
money denagoSucs. Whether Senator
Blackburn Il successor is Il Democrat OF
Il Republican he will not hr IL Silvcrite.
Tho next best test was made in The
Eighteenth congressional district of Illi-
nois, where the question of FREQ silver
was presented squarcly in the views of
tho opposing candidates. Hadley, the
Republican candidate, won by big
majority i'll IL strongly Democratic dis
trict because his opponent stood for free
coinage and was helped, or rather aioo-
doned, b. the speeches OF Bland and
other lcntling silveritcS. Tho lesson will
DO II wholesome one for the Illinois
Democrats who last sprinS went Off half

stutcs give no consolation tn Bland,

The free silver swiudle will never
again seriously disturb our finances or
cause another panic But unfortunately
much positive work remains to be done
before we get rid Of fiat money III all
its forms and secure asound and elastic
currency for our commercial interests.
Clinch Valley news. [volume] (Jeffersonville, Va.) 18??-2019, 1895-12-20

Behind the agitation for 30 cent silver
dollars or no cent. paper dollars there is
strong Populist sentiment which IA
vors the loaning of money by the govern
nicnt to the farmers mt . per cent inter
est. The FREQ coinage advocates find
their strongest support among those who
believe that interest is usury and should
he abolished or reduced to the mere cost
OF Issuing paper currency.
What these PopulistS do not SEQ is tho
fact that interest is not really paid for the
use of money, but for the use of capital.
The money loaned merely serves to con-
vey the capital fTtuiF:its owner to the
borrower. No anti. interest farmer would
rent his farm for per cent Il year. Yet

which no proposes any one who wished
to buy farm could borrow the money

ever pay moro rent than per cent i'll

PopIlist who thinks that the capital rep
resented by lis farm is worth more than

no Ono Nation Can Maintain tho RoIati,
Values of Two Metals.

No Ono Nation Can Maintain tho Relative
Values of Two Metals.
Question. Cam tho United States
alonu maintain bimetallism?
Answer. No.
Question. Why not?
Answer. Because no one nation IN
tho world can fix and maintain interim
tional values, and certainly mono can fix
and indefinitely maintain the relative
valnos Of amy two metals. If we put ar
bitrary relative values OH gold and sill
yer, tho one we valued below tho price
fixed by supply and demand in tho
worlds markets would seek other coun-
tries, where its values and purchasing
power would bU greater, while tho ono
We valued above the market price would
remain with rs and become the standard
of value by which wo conduct our bust
ness.
Question. Are you i'll favor of tho
independent free coinage of silver by
the United Statcsf
Answer mo; for the reason that
thut would infallibly mean silver mon
onictnllism.
Question. Why so?
Answer. gold il worth 80
times us much us silver in tho markets
of tho world today. In other words, an
ounce Of gold is worth as much as SO
ounces of silver, and the United States
cannot change that relative valuation
and permanently maintain such change
by simply passing Il law that an ounce
of gold shall he worth lG ounces of sill
vcr and no more, and us ono can obtnip

day more than 500 grains of standard
