BAD POLITICS..
Mantle and Hartman Agree As 10 Wat
sons Nomination.

Man;la and Hartman Agree as 10 Wat
sons Nomination.
Butte, Mont, July Ex-senator
Mantle and Congressman Hartman
have arrived here. Both say they
support Bryan because he is a
bimetalist, not because he is a dem
ocrat. When the question is settled
they vii. he republicans in all things
once lnor2.
"Whiie | d+liJre that the popu-
lists put Up another ticket said Mr..
Hartman, get l think that in thirty
days there will be but one bimetallic
ticket in tie field. l think Watson
will allow his name to be withdrawn.
The ticket from a point of good pol
itics must be Bryan and Sewall. On
the second thought, Watson and the
men who nominated him must con.
cede this.
air. Mantle spoke on the same
line, and said: Il regard the action
of placing an independent ticket il
the field by the populists very bad
politics, as the populist party has
been crying for the free coinage so
many years, louder than others. 1t
is one one of their cardinal principles
Of faith. I believe the vast ma ority
of the populist party is honest and
sincere in the advocacy of bimetal

A Cheaper" Dollar.

A reader who is earnestly IN search
Of light, which he failed to find in
the partisan press, writes Us:
Il see it stated in some papers
that if the United States opens its
mints to the unlimited coinage of
both gold silver. at the ratio of 16
to l, that laboring men will have to
accept pay in dollars only worth so
cents, and that the people'e money
now deposited IN savings banks will
be returned to them in the same
kind of cheap dollars. Other pa
pers say such would not be the case.
I confess 1 can't see any sense in
such talk. We look to the Journal
of Agriculture and other indepen.
dent and non partisan papers for the
unvarnished facts in these matters.
Please give US some light"
In general terms, it may be said,
any dollar that will pay debts, and
make all necessary exchanges, is
worth 100 cents. This is also true
of the SO called cheap silver dollars
as .'cheap," it will be noticed, never
refuse 20 accept them in business at
100 cents every chance they get, and
also pay them out for 100 cents
Those who claim silver dollars are
only worth fifty cents, perpetrate
what they believe to be fraud every
time they pass one for 100 cents.
1t may be said that the silver dol
lar now, though the bullion in it i!
worth only so cents, passes for 1O(
cents because the country is on
sull oasIs, bat thai 4 the miat:
should be opened 10 the unlimited
coinage of silver, and silver made t
stand on it own merits, the countr,
would be flooded with cheap money
. and working men, and others, woIlt
be paid in so cent dollars But sucl
would not, and could not, be tn
case, for If the silver dollar were no
legal tender, working men coul
refuse to accept it, and demand tha
their employers pay them in lega
tender money; and those who no
have money in the savings ban
: could demand that bankers retur
, their deposits il legal tender none.
and the law Of the country worl
= compel them to do SO.
On the other hand, if the silvs
dollar were legal tender, it woul
paw debts and make all exchange
same as gold Or any other kind I
money, and would. therefore, be ju
as good and honest as gold doila
As there is no proposition befol
q the country, by any of the parties,
r coin silver except into full lesg
s tender money, there is not any da
f ger ths. it will be done.
Everyone knows tha: for domest
= purposes, a1y money that is leg
L tender for all debts, public and pl
