To whatever causes this resignation may be

As far back as April last there were unmstak-

he has been watching for an opportunity to re-

is not altogether unlike that of his predecessor,

THE SILVER DOLLAR STORY.

Mr.. Reed does the Nation a great service in
setting forth, with epgrammatic terseness and
power. the history Of that fetch Of the cranks,
the silver dollar. For years there has been an
insatiate demand for the restoration of the dol
lar of our fathers and a wild uuation over
the "crme OF 1S13''-commtted by Senator
Stewart-by which that venerable coin is sup
posed 10 have been retired. With a few lucid
sentences Of sOberness and truth Mr. Reed
sweeps the whole os that rubbish into limbo
What was the dollar of our fathers? 1t was
coin Of gold, or Of silver. How was the ratio
between the TWO metals determined: BY their
market value What was that ratio? Not the
God ordained" ratio Of 10 to |. for which the
free-colnage men are more or less blasphemously
contendlng, but the then commercial ratio of H.
TO l. How long did that last? Until 1891 when
'our fathers" seeing that the commercial ratio
Of value between the two metals had changed
altered the coinage ratio accordingly. and made
ii 1G TO 1-or, more exactly, l5.9S 10 l. SO there
were really two different silver dollars Of or
fathers"-that Of 1892, AT II 10 !, and that Of
1894. AT IL TO J.
Now the significant and convincing point in
this matter is this, that in both cases the coinage
ratio was determined by the commercial ratio
between the two metals. The fathers In 1872
put fifteen times as much silver into "A dollar as
they did gold, because gold was worth as bull
ion in the metal market. Just about fifteen times
as much. weight for weight, rs silver. In other
words. fifteen ounces Of silver bullion were
worth the same as ounce of gold In 1884
the fathers changed the coinage ratio. because
the commercial ratio had changed. one ounce
OF gold then worth much as sixteen
ounces Of silver and 40 they made the ratio III
10 l. The fundamental principle of the dollar
Of our fathers was, then, that the intrinsic.

A NEEDLESS FEAR.

In the letter which Mr.. William X. Grace
thought it desirable to write to the State
Democracy before he sailed for Europe giving
his reasons why he favored another Demo
cratic ticket, he expressed the conviction that
.undcr the present condition of things, Major
"NIcIIinley should be elected President of the
United States" and personally he believes
that such will be tho result
But" added Mr.. Grace, for his own good 1t
would seem to me he should make formal
declaration to the public to the effect that the
importance OF the money question to this cour-
TRY is such that no interest of any description
shall be permitted to interfere in the slightest
degree with the maintenance of the gold
STANDARD during his Administration"
Major Mckinley IS making frequent speeches
which are printed in every newspaper in the
land. They are read by the people, and every
word he says is carefully weighed, as carefully
as any formal declaration would be. Recently
in an address to delegation from Knoxville,
Tenn. Major Mckinley said:
"Our currency to-day is good-all OF IT as
good as gold-and it is the unfaltcrng deter
animation Of the Republican party to SO keep
"and maintain it forever 1t is the duty Of the
people of this country to stand untedy
against every effort to degrade our currency
cor debase our credit"
If Major Mckinley did rot say another word
all the rest Of the campaign no sincere Sound
Money Democrat could fail to be satisfied from
this single declaration that nothing will be per
united to interfere in the slightest degree with
'thc maintenance of the gold standard during
McKinley's Administration.

For some time garbled extracts from speech
made 10y Mr. Blaine in the Senate In 1878 have
been circulated by silverlte organs and orators
with the idea of showing that Mr. Blaine was
in favor of free silver, and that II living today
lie would be supporter Of Bryan. reading
of the speech in full shows that II is susceptible
of no such Interpretation. but that it is, in fact,
a convincing argument against the free coinage
of silver by the United States at 16 to l. In
view OF these facts the Republican Executive
Committee has wisely decided TO print Mr..
Blaine's speech in full and give it wide circu-
laticn
