Ere. Coinage at sixteen to One.

Means that the government would
charge, all of the silver and gold brought
to it, and that it would make the silver
dollar, as now, 16 times as heavy as the
gold dollar. At present the uncoined
gold in gold dollar is worth 100 cents,
while the uncoined silver in a silver
dollar is worth only SO cents. One
ounce of gold is, therefore, worth COM
mercially as much as 81 ounces of sill
yer. By practically exchanging the one
for the other the government has thus
far and with difficulty enabled our sill
yer dollars to pass as equal to our gold
dollars With unlimited free coinage
the treasury department would simply
grains of gold or on every S71A grains
of silver brought to it and would hand
the dollar, or a gold or silver certificate,
back to the owner. The government
would not then, as at present, be under
obligations to maintain parity between
gold and silver dollars, and each silver
dollar would pass for what the metal in
it was worth.
If, as Bland and Bryan declare, the
price of silver bullion would rise so
that 16 ounces of silver would be worth
/ of gold, then, though it would add
hundreds of millions to the value Of sill
yer mines, free coinage would not work
injustice as between creditors and debt
ors. As, however, gold will certainly
GO to premium" of nearly 200, free
coinage will enable the debt of this
country, one-half of which is owed by
railroads and other great corporations,
to be paid in dollars worth about half Of
our present dollars. II would rob credit
ors, mostly savings bank depositors, and
members of building and loan associa-
tions and of other similar corporation
organizations, of half of their hard
earned savings; it would reduce by one
half the value of all insurance policies,
and of all pensions; it would greatly re-
duce wages and salaries, for prices
would nearly double at once, while
wages would rise but slowly, and often
only after long strikes and lockouts; it
would, in fact, take billions Of property
from the comparatively poor and give it
to the comparatively rich and would
revolutionize our finances and unsettle
our industry until, without prospect of
permanent gain, we should settle down
on q silver basis with Mexico, Chins
and other half civilized countries.

SOMETHING SPICY EXPECTED.

Columbia, S. c., Sept. 14.-If what
has been whispered about in the last
few days since the revelations made
by Gov. Evans as to what certain
people know about the affairs of the
state dispensary be true, then the
outside world may look for spicy read
ing next week bearing upon the state
scandal The board of control has
been called into extra session to fully
investigate the scandal and see what
is behind it.
Col Willie Jones, chairman of the
state board of control of the state dis
pensary, yesterday notified the other
four members of the board that there
would be an extra session on Tuesday
night next. He was seen and asked
why he had called an extra meeting.
He replied that in view of the recent
charges made by Governor Evans "a
gainst Liquor Commissioner MiXson,
he did not see how the state board
could do otherwise than investigate the
matter. There were charges and coun-
tercharges by Governor Evans and
Commissioner MiXson, and this natur-
ally reflected on the management of
the dispensary. In fact, charges like
those of Governor Evans had been
made by a number Of reputable citizens
and would rest upon the board to sift
the matter. This investigation was
due to the board itself and due the peo-
pie of the state and due also Commits
stoned Mixson. .'
In answer to the question what the
probable action Of the board would
be, he replied that he did not know.
AS chairman of the state board he felt
that it rested on him to convene the
board and let it take whatever action
it saw proper. In his letter of notifi-
cation to the board he made no men
ton of his reasons for calling the meet
ing, but simply stated that certain
business demanded their immediate at
tention. . "'H aigEANN

The Bryan Scheme.

Cheap money and high prices. Wages
paid in cheap money and products sold
at high prices in cheap money. That is
the Bryan scheme in nutshell. Japan,
for instance, is working on the silver
plan and makes it go in the only way
it can go, by paying small wages in sill
yer and thus competing successfully
with countries where wages are both
higher and paid in money whose value
is fixed according to the gold standard.
The whole Bryan scheme depends on
cheap money, high prices and low silver
wages. There is nothing else in il. -

What Congress Cannot Do.

The theory that congress can work
miracles in this way by statute has its
attractions for a certain class of minds,
but fortunately for US this. form Of in
sanity has had run in other ages and
countries where they have tried all sorts
Of ways to create values and prices by
statute. But the thing would never
work, even when the penalties of hang
ing and other forms Of capital punish
ment were added to the legal tender
clause for the benefit of the fellows who
undertook to evade the DEGREES Of kings
or parliaments in obedience to the
higher laws of trade. Paul Pioneer

= This money question presents itself
to me in this homely fashion: If free
coinage of silver means So cent dollar,
then it is not an honest dollar. If free
coinage means 100 cent dollar, equal
to gold dollar, as some of its advo-
Gates assert, we will not then have
cheap dollars, but dollars just like those
we now have and which will be as hard
to get. In each case free coinage will
not help the debtor or make it easier for
him to pay his debts. William Nc
