FREE COINAGE OF IRON.
ATLANTA, Georgia, Journal)

is a strong Is to | man. He does
not believe in half way measures.
The free coinage ofsilver idea is too
tame for him. He is willing to see
the silverites and to 60 them 100
points better. Here are his dec
laration, proposition and arguments;
"Having been deeply impressed
by the arguments of Judge Crisp,
Bryan, Stewart, Jones and other
silver leaders, and especially
grieyed, shocked and Mortified by
the awful crime of 1873 as 50 lur-
idly depicted daily in the columns
of the Atlanta Constitution and
other silver organs, have changed
my views on the money question,
and am ready to maintain the
propositions following in joint de-
bate or newspaper controversy.
Il accept the arguments of the
advocates Of silver and agree with
their remedy as far as it goes. How
ever, it does not go far enough. Let
us have plenty of remedy-in fact,
enough to make debt and poverty
things of the past, relics of the dark
ages. am in favor Of the free and
unlimited coinage of pig iron at the
ratio Of Is to 1 with gold by the
| United States alone, independently
of all nations, and can prove by the
best authority obtainable that such
a policy on the part of the United
States will raise prices, tput plen-
ty of money in circulation,' and
give the honest debtor a chance to
pay his debts, thereby making the
whole country prosperous.
"Now, in the first place, it may
be urged by some who do not un-
derstand the subject of standard Of
value that a free coinage act for
iron would not raise its price to a
ratio of 1G to / with gold. To them
| reply that the stamp of this gov
ernment and the legal-tender quail
tiles of the iron dollar would IN
stantly make the bullion value Of
pig iron the same as the mint val
ue.' 'For who would part with an
ounce Of this precious metal for any
thing else than the mint value?
(Stewart, Jones and Bryan.)
Again, it may be urged that our
mint would be overcrowded with
pig iron. | reply that the price of
pig iron having been raised from
$3.50 a ton to a ratio of Is to | with
gold the world over no one would
especially care to carry it to the
mints, since the mint price could
be obtained anywhere in the open
market (Atlanta Contribution J.
Next it may be urged atgold and
silver would 60 out of circulation.
| reply, first, This is a mere assum-
ption of the tools ofthe money pow
er Which they cannot verify, (At-
lanta Con5titution); second, Sup
pose gold and silver did 60 out of
circulation, is there not plenty Of
pig iron to take their place and
give the people plenty of money?
(Bryan) and, third, Such an as
sumption mixes the ideas of circu-
lating medium and standard Of
value; gold and silver would still
be potential money metals, though
not in circulation, and would lend
their help toward raising prices
and causing general prosperity.
(Crisp.)

Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1896-04-30

Honolulu's warm climate is
conducive of thirst to a greater
degree than that Of a colder zone.
The average business man loses
also, to a degree, the amount OF
energy and nervous force common
enough in the bracing air of
American cities. These two phases
of our climate make it more
necessary than elsewhere to slim
ulate the system with an invigor-
ant. No more healthful or purer
stimulus, or one more delightful
to the palate, can be found, than
Pabst Milwaukee beer. 1t is a
delicious drink and is constantly
on draught at the Cosmopolitan,
Pacific and the Royal.
BE on TO yourself and ask for
Seattle beer ON draft and in bottles
at the Criterion Saloon.

News and Notes.

f'Councilmen Stockwell, Blanchard and
Kineery have investigated the fires that
have prevailed in the mountains during
the past few days and they do not feel
at all alarmed.
Yesterday Councilman M. P. Snyder
went UP to Alpine Tavern to look the
ground over.
The fires have been raging there for
some time past with more or less vio-
lence and a great deal of damage has
been done.
Fear has been manifested in certain
quarters lest the city's water supply
might be affected by the conflagrations
but this apprehension has no foundation.
The property of the Mount Lowe COM
pany Is not in danger That corporation,
through the receivers, has thus far ex-
pended about $500 to put stop to the
fires.
The four water companies of Pasadena
have also expended $1,000 in fighting the
fires.
A fire patrol is maintained in order
that the flames may be held in check
as far as possible to prevent any real
serious and irreparable damage being
done.
All of the councilmen are undoubted-
ly Of the opinion that the water supply
of Los Angeles has not been affected and
they do not think that it will be.
This being the case they do not feel
called upon to expend the money of the
people in this city in fighting mountain
fires The board Of supervisors have the
power to act and to make such an ap-
preparation.
The councilmen held conference
With citizenc Of Pasadena and the town
trustees. After this consultation the
opinion above given as regards any ex-
penditure on the part Of this city was
arrived at.

Chief Glass corroborated Hurts
statement of fact. and said he never
heard of Hurt having been arrested, and
never had occasion to order Hurt out
of the city. SO far as he knew, poker
was Hurts speciality, and anybody who
played poker with Hurt took his own

Now, the facts stated with regard TO

to special consideration at the hands ot
the Times and the chief of police, but
that Is no good reason why Mr. Hurt
should, by any device he may be skillful
at, be permitted to take money from
the unwary. s
The Herald endeavored to put the pub

and for this reason made the publication

countryman named Chez Cow with as
sault with a deadly weapon. Chow
works at the Hollenbeck barroom and
was going to his daily toll yesterday
morning about s o'clock. He was pass
ing along Apablasa street when sudden
ly Chez Cow darted from a doorway
and smashed Cow over the head with
an iron bar about two feet long. Chow
was knocked down. but quickly arose
and grappled with his assailant, wrest-
ing the bar from him. Chez Cow at this
turned and fled down the alley before
Chow could get crack at him.
Chow claims that the reason Chez
assaulted him Is because Chow had
caused him to be discharged from the
bar where he had been employed, and
had had his cousin put in Chee's place.
Chow Is still in possession OF his job
and is looking for Chez.
