PARITY AND BULLION VALUES.

| We grow excessively weary of the
/ deprecated Mexican silver dollar bow
wow, and eff the parity" value racket.
The coin value does not follow the bull
lion value either up or down, but the
reverse is true, the bullion value fol
lows the free coin value. Weak, I'M
developed, revolution threatened Mex
in any possible estimate. Yet that I'M
progressive and benighted land has
more financial and commercial pros
perity, is better Off per capita, than the
rest Of the continent. -, -, 80
And SO This f'parity" din and IRE
deemable in gold" value, is rot. The
American silver dollar, containing less
bullion than the Mexican dollar, is
worth its face in gold, in America, in
England, anywhere. Oh, but says one,
that's because it is redeemable in gold.
Where and when and how is it re-
deemable in gold? There is no such
law, for either silver or silver certifi-
Gates, except the law of Cleveland and
Carlisle. They are worth as much as
gold because they are full legal tender
for debts and because they will buy
as much wheat, cotton or other Ameri-
can goods as gold. If million United
London or Paris or Berlin they would
command approximately as much
goods as that much gold, though the
taker could not get single gold dollar
from the United States treasury for the
whole lot. Its the legal tender quality
Of a great and rich commercial nation
that makes the American silver dollar
worth SO much more than that of the
Mexican dollar. But, says one, under
free coinage our silver dollars would
be worth no more abroad than the
bullion that is in them. In turn we
ask what would the bullion in dollar
be worth under free coinage? 1t is
certain that four hundred and twelve
and a half grains of bullions, nine
tenths fine, would be worth a dollar in
America, because it could be converted
without cost into a dollar. Concediny
then that the coin would be worth no
more than the bullion. what would the
bullion be worth? The international
bimetallic crowd claim that their policy
would increase the silver price up to
the parity point, but Carlisle declares
that it would do no such thing. because
the value of the bullion would be the
same inside or outside of the coin.
Is the gold miner entitled to any more
consideration than the silver miner?
If not why not settle this question
solely on its merits and without any
reference TO the miners interests or
the interest of any other class. settle
it in the interest Of the people as

1T IS NOT OvERPRODUCTIoN.

1t was not the overproduction OF
silver that sent the price Of its bullion
down, and which in going down drag
Sed all things else down with it as
measured by gold. SO there has been
no overprOduction of wheat or of cot
ton. Their prices went down with that
of silver, went down in spite of reduced
transportation charges. And so is
all this contention of the gold-gobblers
that the monetary use Of silver has 10
effect on the value of silver bullion a
falsehood. They say that if every
silver country should demonetize silver
and go TO a gold standard that the value
of silver would remain the same Car
Isle holds to this view That. also. is
a gold-Gobbler falSehood. When the
India m;nts were closed the value of
silver fell 20 per cent in ten days.
Doesn't this show that the coinage of
the Indian minis was unfolding the
price of the bullion? Again, what
caused the prompt and continuous fall
in silver after the characterization cru
=
on the contrary. for eight years while
silver was going continuously down,
ttep r'iuction Of gold at the legal ratio
was considerably in excess of the pro-
duction of silver The alleged over
production for the whole time since
is a mere bagatelle as compared with
the oyerproduction of one metal or the
other at former periods, during which
there was a practical coincidence of
the market and legal ratios. 1t seems
to us that the gold standard men have
taken ground they cannot defend by
any national argument They tell us
i'll one breath that the silver of the
whole world would come speeding
across the seas and continents at great
cost and the peril of shipwreck to be
coined into American dollars. and in
the next breath they tell Us that it
would be worth no more after that than
before. They furiously proclaim
against the proposition To give the
silver miner 1l0 cents worth of silver
and in the next breath tell us the dollar
would only be worth 80 centh. They
ridicule the idea that law can effect
the value OF metal. and in the next
breath declare for al International
agreement 10 regulate and control the
values OF gold and siiver-by law.

character of the woman has been that
of a tender clinging vine. vine that
chung to the oak whether it was rugged
or not; whether the tempests of adj
versity broke and twisted it; whether
it rOtted away or became hollow.
Women have the fame Of sticking by
man through thick and thin, sharing
his troubles whether they come from
misfortune or his own wOrthleSsness
and vicious habits. Wives have been
known as clinging to husbands when
they were advised by the whole conf
munity to throw them over. Girls
have been known as dangerous to COM

onism of any one individual always

and. what was unknown one hundred
years ago, hold the guilty party-the
man-to blame. They declare point
blank against allowing the masculine
taste for skirted angels to influence
them and throw themselves into strad-
ding boomers. They no longer avoid
or detest the woman who courts public
ity. They may not demand publicity
for themselves but they insist that any
woman who desires it should have a
right to gain it. They have also sprang
upon the social restrictions of woman
and declared for new social constitu-
ton where women shall be subject TO
the same code as men.
Above it all the defense of their sex
shines brightly. If the Danbury girls
decide that it is a war of protection of
one sex against the vices and habits
Of another Sex, that is, If it is sex
against sex, they are very likely to all
die old maids, while the young men
will emigrate to another town where
beer is plentiful and such organizations
scarce. But the girls will have won.

HEROIC WORDS OF CORBETT.

Is all that is dramatic in this country
left to the big-fsted pugilist? A re-
porter for a newspaper called on Jim
Corbett and asked him if he had any
thing to say in regard to the separation
Of himself and his wife
The great gladiator showed his left
| foot forward, threw his eyes upward
at an angle of 60 degrees, dropped his
voice into the sub-sub base clef. and,
raising his hand, said tremuluosly 'If
l live a thousand years nothing shall
escape my lips in relation to that mat
ter"
If that wasn't dramatic wnar could
be: And from a pugilist too. Our
greatest statesmen cannot rise to such
heroic utterances in private life and
conversation. Gus statesmen are just
at this minute at home trying to talk
the plainest English. without any fur
bellows, and escape bling yanked cross
eyed at the next election on the charge
of being stuck up. Our greatest mill
ionaires, always reckOned among the
potential ones of the nation, cannot af-
ford to be dramatic They are affect
ing simplicity and trying to detract the
attention of the bomb-throwers as
much as possible. Our officials refrain

tell truth that could not be disputed
by any man. The other point is tina
the prohibitory law is openly and gross
ly violated in nine-tenths OF the cities
and towns of the state. The Journal
does not, as many do, hold Governor
Morrill, responsible for this state OF az
fairs. He was not elected as a police
officer. There are only six cities OF the
state in which he has any right 10 in
tertere IN the matter. But just here
the journal wants to say that il thinks.
II thinks, mind you, that were il gov
ernor OF the state OF Kansas il would
either disovle the police boards OF those
six cities or IL would enforce the prohi-
bitory law In them If it took the state
militia to do ii. The Metropolitan DO

ought 10 be repealed. but as long as II
stands and the boards are appointed
under it by the governor, then the gov
ernor ought to insts upon it that those
podTOS enforce the law 10 the letter.
The state has no right to demand
anything of the kind of the governor,
but since it does he should handle IL in
such a way that the saloons OF those
cities would not send a lobby to To-
peka TO urge the retention of the law
AS TO the smaller towns, with which
the governor has nothing TO do. il is
probable that they will continue TO sell
liquor, and occasionally a man VIII be
punished for IL. But the condition of
the minds of the people OF Kansas in
reference to the law at the present
time is such that in the majority OF
counties the law cannot be enforced.
This IS lamentable. but II is a fact.
There are great many people in Kan
sas who regard the law es tyrannical
and unjust. and no American loves 10
support and obey law that he looks
at in that light. In saying these things

ment which allows theviolations. nor IL
