In Gen. Jackson's time man who had
l6 ounces of silver could sell them in
the market for one ounce of gold, and
so Gen. Jackson, who was square
dealing man, approved the coinage ratio.
putting 16 times as much silver into a
coined silver dollar as was required of
gold for q gold dollar. But the large
quantities of silver produced of late
years and the improved and cheapened
process of mining it and extracting the
pure metal from the ore have so reduced
its value that it now requires 80 ounces
of silver to buy an ounce of gold. If
Gen. jackson were alive, he would not
be caught in the company of the cheap
money advocates who wish to put so
cents worth of silver into dollar and
pay 100 cents of debt with it. He adj
justed his ratio to intrinsic value, so
that all the dollors in the hands of the
people should be real dollars, worth as
much after they were melted by fire as
they were before melting.-Philadel-
phia Record.

Have They Cornered the Copper Gent?
A majority of the lletters from the
working men your columns claim that
gold has appreciated in value since 1873
and that this appreciation has been
caused Oy the wicked bankers who have
cornered all the gold. Has anyone sug-
gested that these wicked bankers have
cornered all the cents? In 1873 it re-
quired 129 cents to purchase only one
ounce OF silver. To-day it requires only
IS cents to purchase this same one
ounce of silver. In 1879 it required 125
cents to purchase one bushel of wheat,
To-day GO cents will purchase one bush
ell of wheat. And yet 100 cents will pur-
chase the same amount of gold. to-day as
it could in 1873. Clearly, then, it is
this bad little copper cent that has
caused all our hard times and not the
gold. Let us compel all of our creditors
to accept five mills instead of ten for
one cent.-Common Sense, in N. Y.
World.

NOT BlMETALltSTS.
True Coinage Men Are Silver Monomet-
allists.

True Coinage Men Are Silver Monomet-
aIlists.
Senator Teller calls himself BIZ
metallist. He defines bimetallism as
'the equal Treatment of both gold and
silver at the minis"
Senator Teller is silver monometal-
list, and so are all advocates Of free
coinage at sixteen to one. They do not
ask equal" but unequal treatment of
gold and silver at the minis. All that
the mint does with gold Is to stamp
upon 1t the certificate of its value. 1t
stamps 25 $40 grains of gold of stand
ard fineness as a dollar. The metal Is
worth a dollar before it is stamped.
1t Is worth a dollar If melted in the
pot. 1t will bring dollars worth of
value in either shape anywhere in the
world.
What the free coinage men ask is
that the government shall stamp 412R
grains of silver of standard fneness as
dollar under the arbitrary and OBJ
solete ratio Of sixteen to one. But this
silver Is worth only SO cents. 1t will
Sell CChuo IL ~ WA
nos pass for a dollar In the markets OF
the world, except to be sent back here,
where it's legal tender quality and the
policy of the government to make 1t
.exchangeable for gold keep it current
at its face value.
In asking this unfair and dishonest
advantage for silver Mr.. Teller there
fore demands unequal treatment for the
metals. And as free coinage Of either
metal at a false ratio has everywhere
and always driven the more valuable
coin out of circulation, it would inevi-
tably precipitate this country to sill
yer basis, making silver the only money
of redemption and silver or silver notes
the only money in use.
The free coinage men are therefore
not bimetallists, but silver monomet
allists. They are coptractionists. They
would make money scarcer instead O.
more plentiful, poorer instead Of bet
ter,

The Grand Army of Creditors.


The gentlemen who think that they
have made an attractive bid for votes
by proposing 5o-cent dollar for debtors
to pay their debts with are reckoning
without their host. Every state OF the
union is full of creditors, and they will
never consent to detfaud and cheat
themselves.
Among these creditors are:
All persons who work for wages, sal
airy or by the piece.
All members Of building and loan
associations.
All depositors in savings, national
state or private banks. Dali. a.
All holders of life, fire and accident
insurance policies. .....
, All members of benevolent and fra
ternal insurance orders. r
All holders of industrial insurance.
All widows, orphans or wards de
pendent wholly or partially upon tht
income from investments.
All educational and charitable insti
buttons dependent wholly or in par
upon the income of their endowments
In fact, the 50-cent silver dolla,
would be of advantage to few person
in the long run save the spectators
who would gamble on the inevitabl
fluctuations in its purchasing powe
aud in the price of commodities.
