Are Silver Dollars A Legal Tender

The act OF 1872 destroyed silver

amount of S5
The Blaud-Allison act Of 1878
restored the legal tender character
Of the silver dollar except when
otherwise provided in the contract, "
The Bland-Allison act of 1873,
while presumably rstoring the legal

did not do so, No money can be
effective as legal tender money when
the power Is given to the individual
citizen to nullify the act of congress,
an this the d.Allison act did,
It says silver dollars are legal

THE SOUTH REMEMBERS.

Southern men who are thinking OF
voting for Mckinley should remem-
Der that he stands tor the force bill
and all that infamous measure i'm
plies.
Should Mr.. Mckinley be elected
president he is pleged no less to the
enactment of the force bill, that to
the maintenance of gold standard
and high protection.
If Mr.. Mckinley is the author of
the Mckinley tariff, then he IS also
the author of the force bill, He was
the leader of the republican party,
in congress when the house passed
the force bill. If his party credits
him with the Mckinley tariff and
nominates him for the presidency,
because OF his advocacy of high pro-
lection he and his party must also
take the responsibility and the dis
credit for the force bill, which in
the language of Senator Miller is
the most infamous measure that
ever crossed the threshold of the
United States senate,
We are sure that to southern
democrat who remembers the infa-
mics and the horrors Of reconstruc-
tion, needs to be reminded that
Major Mckinley is no more pledged
to gold and high protection than he
is to force and violence in dealing
with the elective franchise and the
principle of home rule in the south.

sanctions these gold bonds and
notes. Hence, since then, nearly
all bonds and notes have been taken
payable in gold. A debtor has little
to say as to what kind of note he
will sign, when borrowing money.
The creditor dictates that, and the
debtor is usually in no position to
object. The government has farmed
out to the banks and money lenders
the right to dictate what shall be
the legal tender money.
The central point of attack on
mouometallism is that gold alone
is redeemable money.-POst-Dis-

The democrats who are support

with them on the financial question.
Prof. Andrews, of Brown Uniyersi-
ty, because he wrote for one of the
magazines an article in favor OF
free silver, has been roundly de-
nounced, and, number of news
papers have urged the faculty to
demand his resignation. President
St. John. of the Mercantile Nation

was compelled to resign because he
advocated the free coinage of silver
