The story Of r. j. Fusion. the aged
father who Travelled Inmanacled and
alone from Abilene 10 Rusk to serve q
two years term in the penltentiary for
killing the betrayer OF his daughter, is
peculiarly interesting and pathetic.
The history OF the tragedy need not
be retoid. II the published accounts
are correct, 1t was repetition of an
old, old story, and the venerable father
did what nine hundred and nlnety-nine
Southern fathers out of one thousand
have always done and win always do.
Custom in some other sections re-
quires the injured party to sue for
damages or be silent. That Is not a
Southern custom. Here the seducer
knowingly takes his life in his hand,
and the consequence is that the South
wiles.
Fusion is victim not only of
great wrong done to his home but OF a
custom that would have held him to
be an Indifferent witness OF his daugh-
ter's disgrace had he acted otherwise
than he did. He is the father OF eleven
daughters. and his family is highly re-
speeted. His silence would by this Gus
tom have been construed into the OF.
Tense OF conformation, and not he alone,
but all his family would have suffered
for the cruel crime Of the seducer.
We do not plead the cause OF this
unfortunate old man. who. because OF
his obedience to what he conceived to
be higher law. is now an inmate Of a
felon's cell. We merely call attention
TO social facts that demand the sober
thought of Southern communities.
II 1t was right for Fusion to kill the
sedueer OF his daughter the law should
be changed. If 1t was wrong for him
10 become the avenger Of the wrong
done TO his home custom and public
sentiment should be changed.
Certainly there Is something wrong
when an honored, an honorable citizen,
through the crime OF another. is forced
by the inexorable law OF public senti-
ment to become n violator of the stat
ute law.

Decentralization IN oEnMANY.


According to the proceedings OF the
Vienna coin convention OF 1861. gold
was demonetized and silver was made
the sole standard OF value in Germany,
excepting Bremen. and so remained I'M
I'll the demonotigation OF silver in 1871.
But II was not depreciation In the
value OF gold that caused Germany to
adopt the silver standard in 1851 nor
fall In the value Of silver that led to
It's characterization in 1871. The change
from q double standard was first in
duced by the apprehension OF de-
cline in value OF the mass of money,
the amount represented by both pre-
cious metals. and was an effort to con-
tract the volume OF money in the inter-
est Of the credit classes
During the period from 1857 to 1870,
silver was the only full legal tender in
Germany. Gold coins OF various nations
found their way into circulation, but
they were commercial money and fuc-
tuated In value and quantity. The aver
age amount OF gold was about 20 per
caat. Of the amount OF silver.
Belgium adopted the silver standard
in 1880, but returned to the double
standard In 1851. In ISL. England was
the only country In Europe which had
an effective gold standard Of value,
but her tenaclty OF character made q
European union upon any other single
metal impossible So, when Germany
received $1,000 900 of war indemnity
from France. she resolved to sell her
silver and adopt the gold standard.
From the time she began 10 carry out
this change, silver began to fail In
value, and the depression of trade set
in,
Statistics show that the prosperity OF
commerce has always been largely ar-
fccted by the supply OF the precious
metals. The general advance or de :
preston has always followed a CORE
spending increase or decrease in the
supply Of Sold and silver with the OK
ceptlon OF few commercial crises
which lasted but few months, the
trade OF the world made uninterrupted
progress from the beginning OF the cen
fury until the general decentralization
of silver in the early seventies. Twenty
three years experience has been amply
sufficient 70 demonstrate the urgent
need for the restoration OF silver to it's
place as the equal OF gold in the imam
ciai system OF the United States.

The claim that the commercial
strength OF England is due to the ex-
istence Of the gold standard of value
is thus answered and the present strug-
gle forecast by no less eminent author
ity than Dlsraeli:
ut is the greatest deluslon in the
world to attribute the commercial pre-
ponderance OF England TO orr having a
gold standard. Our gold standard Is
not the cause of our commercial pros
perlty. but the consequence OF our
commercial prosperity.
1T is quite evident we must prepare
ourselves for great commissions In the

ulhtion or any old cause, which has
been alleged. but by new cause. with
which we nre not sufficiently ac-
quainted.i and the consequences OF
