YOUNG MEN FOR WAR; OLD MEN
FOR COUNSEL.

The objection made against The
candidacy of William J. Bryan on
account of his youth will not bear
the discriminating light of history.
Alexander the Great, when he first
took command of the Grecian pha-
ianxes, was but a youth having just
passed his twenties. By his con-
summate skill and daring bravery
he overran and conquered the then
civilized world. Julius Caesar was
very young when he was first called
to be commander-in-chief of the
armies of Rome, which eliminated
in the conquering Of the semi-bar-
barous peoples Of Spain, Germany
and Britain. Napoleon Bonaparte
was comparatively but beardless
youth when he was appointed first
consul Of France and by his intelli-
gence, tact, and bravery overran all
OF Europe save England. William
Pitt, when a boy but twenty-four
years old, held the British Parlia-
ment in speechless awe when he
addressed it on the rights of the
American colonies. George Wash
ington, when appointed as COM
mander-in-chiefof the colonies of
the United States, was young. Cen
eral Grant, the most brilliant pro
duct of the American War, was a
young man when appointed com
mander-in-chief Of the armies Of the
Union. In fact, taking the acts Of
the great both in statesmanship and
in war, you will find that the lead
ers have almost uniformly been
men not past the middle age ofIife.
We need young man for this cam
paign. We need his energy bis
firmness, his brilliancy, and Will
liam J. Bryan fills the bsh.

The English view.

England is opposed to the free
coinage of silver by the United
States Government, and the London
Commerce, recognized trade au-
thority, frankly states why. It
says: Leaving the question of
tariffs for a moment let US consider
what a bimetalIist America will
mean for us. In the first place it
will mean an immediate premium
on United States exports. The eff.
feet of coming silver at the pro-
posed ratio would, in all probabil-
ity, bring about great boom in
manufactures of all kinds. Wages
might rise considerably, but the ex-
perience of other countries goes to
show that they would not rise in
proportion to the advantage which
exporters would derive who sent
their goods to gold-using country,
to-wit. the United Kingdom. The
manufacturers of the States would
not be quite in the same position of
vantage as the agriculturists of the
Argentine, nor the exporters in In
dia, but they would have sufficient
leverage over the manufacturers
here to turn the scale in every trade
where now there is a doubt which
way the market trends. In tin
plates, many kinds Of machinery,
including some Of the very heaviest.
in leather and in many sundry
manufactures where the British pro-
ducer can with difficulty hold his
own, the effect of the change would
be decisive. Then this policy is al
so bribe to the farmers. Ameri-
can dead meat-live cattle being
prohibited-wheat and all farm pro-
duce suitable for expectation would
come over in greatly augmented
quantities, for the difference in the
exchange would mean such an ad-
dition of profit that an immense
stimulus would be given all along
the line. AS to silver mining, all
that can be said is that there will
be a rush. The dimensions of the
movement would depend upon many
things impossible to foresee. These
anticipations of what has become
possible are not be it remembered,
based on mere theory. We know
already too well what to expect from
foreign traders in q country where
silver is the standard currency. In
dia, Japan and Argentina are all
bearing witness to the insidious eff
feet on British trade Of conditions
similar to those now in perspective
in the United States. Meantime,
we cannot too soon face the posi-
bilities and realize the true signifi-
canoe of the position as it is.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1896-08-01

done.
We cannot find the value of an
article by measuring it by itself.
There was never a time when a
pound Of pork was not worth a
pound Of pork or a bushel of wheat
another bnshel. The value of any
article can only be ascertained by
what it will buy. 'The value of
money rs its purchasing power"
Economists agree upon this defini-
ton. In the Stewart Horr discus
sion Senator Stewart states it and
Mr.. Horr assents. Then if the gold
dollar buys twice as much now as
when silver was demonetized it's
value has doubled. 1t matters not
whether this increase is owing to
an increased supply of produce rel.
alive to its uses, or a diminiihed
supply of gold relative to its uses
gold has doubled in value from some
cause, and that fact units it for a
financial standard.
IF supply and demand controls
price and the supply and demand
of gold does not keep pace with the
supply and demand Of other pro-
ducts, then gold is unsuited for a
standard of value. If cost of pro-
duction determines price and the
cost of producing gold does not keep
pace with the cost of producing
other articles of value, then that
fact also units gold for a standard
of value.
If the supply and demand of sill
yer or the cost of producing it,
which ever determines it's price,
comes nearer to the factors that
govern the value of other articles
than does gold, then silver is bet
ter standard of value than gold, be-
cause it will maintain more uni.
form price.
The gold in the gold dollar is
worth twice rs much agricultural
produce as in 1878. The silver in
the silver dollar will buy not far
from the same amount of agricul-
tural produce that it purchased in
1873. The purchasing power of gold
has been increasing since silver was
demonetized, while the purchasing
power of silver has been practically
unchanged.
Silver is therefore better stand
ard than gold because of its greater
stability. In common with most
advocates of unlimited silver cuin-
age, believe the ultimate effect of
such legislation would be to put the
two metals upon a parity at the
coinage ratio, but if it fails to ac-
complish that end silver standard
is far ahead of a gold standard be-
cause of it's greater stability.

there are in our government

All tea that goes into Great
Britain is carefully examined

If free coinage is not good thing,
why does the Republican party
want to obtain free coinage through
an international conference? If free
coinage is a bad thing why does the
Republican party want it at all?
aud why does it admit that it is
good thing by claiming that the
party is attempting to bring it about
through an international agree
ment? If free coinage is a good
thing, why wait for the action of
other governments? Our fathers
did not wait for the permission of
England to open the mints of the
United States to the equal coinage
Of the two metals, and why should
seventy millions of people admit
their incapacity to govern them
selves by calling upon Great Britain
to legislate for the United States?
The whole free silver element of
the country, Democratic, Republi-
can, Populist, and Prohibition, will
be united for Bryan. In this State
there will be 10000 free silver Pop
ulists and Prohibitionists who will
join the Democrats for Bryan and
Sewall. In a contest upon full
vote in this state these 10000 votes
will give the state to the Democrats
by $1,000 majority, but the pros
poets are much better than that, be-
cause there will be more than two
Republicans come to the party for
every Democrat that leaves it in
this election. Bryan and Sewall
will have $4,000 majority in Mich

James Lynch Dead.

James Lynch passed quietly
away in Challis on Wednesday
morning, Jan. 8, 1896, after a
long sickness and considerable
suffering. although he received
the best of care by his friends.
AT the time of his death he was
reduced to merely a skeleton in
flesh, but to the last he bravely
met death, claiming he would
get well, although the doctor in
formed him a week or more ago
that life for him was short.
The deceased was another vic
tim of the Custer mill, where he
worked for years inhaling the
dust and chlorine gas. Many
boys who have worked there met
similar fate. DR.. Jacobson who
treated the deceased, Jas. Lynch,
for several mopths has come to
the conclusion without holding
a post-mortem examination over
the remains, that death was
caused by gangrene of the
stomach the result of chlorine
gas from treating the ores.
The deceased was a native o1
SanFrancisco, California, where
he now has two sisters residing,
and was in the neighborhood OF
35 years of age. He came to
Custer county about II years
ago, and located in Custer where
he has lived most of the time
since. He was a very honorable
young gentleman, and by his
kindness and charitable ways
won him many friends and the
high esteem of all who had form
ed his acquaintance.
The funeral services were held
at the Congregational church in
this city on Thursday afternoon,
Jan. 9, at 3 o'clock. The cere-
monies were short and impress
i've. The remains were laid al
rest in the village cemetery, fol
lowed by many friends.
Life's rugged range he's climbed at last,
He's on its summit now
The slippery trail of Time he's passed,
Which furrowed deep his brow.

was of a filthy character and

which he was committed to Jail.

Morgan is quiteswell known in
this portion of Idaho, as he lived
on Lost river for some time. He
was always considered worth

guilty of the crime charged, the

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.

From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, d. O., Jan. 10
That a majority of the Senate is
opposed to issuing bonds at all
in time of peace is probable, and
will be shown later, but that an
overwhelming majority of sena-
tors are opposed to issuing bonds
through a private deal with a
syndicate of bankers has already
been shown by the vote to take
up the resolution of Senator
Elkins, expressing the sense of
the Senate to be against any 9th
er disposition of bonds than by
public advertisement, and to the
highest bidder. Only six sena-
tors voted against consideration
of that resolution, which would
have been adopted but for the
rules of the Senate which enabl-
ed Senator Hill-by the way, one
of the most bitter opponents OF
these very rules-to throw it
over by an objection. True, its
adoption will not be legally bind
ing upon President Cleveland, but
all the same he would much pre-.
fer that it would not be adopted.
There is a rumor that this vote
has caused President Cleveland
to decide that the issue of bonds
he is now contemplating shall be
offered to the highest bidder by
public advertisement, but this
rumor does not tally with the
story generally believed about
