SILVER IN THE SOUTH.

Some rather important correspou-
dence between Hon. John e. Russell.
of Massachusetts, and ex-Secretary
Hoke Smith on the question OF silver
in the south, and why the sentiment
there is so strong for it has been made
public. Under date of June 9, Mr.. Rus
sell wrote as follows:
My Dear Mr.. Smith: I have noticed
with great interest your excellent work
in the recent Georgia campaign. It
was chiyalrous support Of the admins
tration, and what l expected Of YOU.
The failure of the sound money cause
was TO be easily fOreseen, because of
the disappointment of the people Of all
that region in the results of the cleo
ton of 81. 1t was Georgia and Ten
nesSee more than any other states in
the convention that influenced the
southern vote for the platform. on our
promises and agreement that the bank
ing power destroyed by the war tax
on state bank issues should be restored
to the states; or that some banking
system similar to those enjoyed by al
other civilized people should take the
place of the present broken-down
thing of shreds and patches" with
which we now founder along. The
failure to get a low tariff, the break
down of the income tax and our angry
divisions in congress were all against
you. No doubt we still agree that if
We could have repealed the 10 per cent
tax on state bank issues, or estab-
hshed a banking system under federal
supervision, available in all parts of
the country, the south would gladly
have dropped the free coinage of silver.
With very Kind r,acra Td n,
yours.
Two days later Mr.. Smith made re-
ply as follows:
Your note of June 9 reached me to-
day. 1 appreciate very much your
kind expression about the Georgia.
campaign, and your references to my
support of the administration. You
are certainly right in your estimate of
the injury which the cause of sound
money received from the failure of leg
islation upon the line of repeating the
tax upon state bank issues The peo-
pie, especially in the rural districts,
have just grievance. 1t is due, in
large part, to the narrowness of our
national banking system. With the
limitations now placed upon this sys-
tenn no facilities are afforded to the
agricultural classes for short loans
upon their real estate, so much needed
during the planting and harvesting
seasons each year. In our section they
would have willingly accepted even a
conditional repeal of the tax upon state
banks as a substitute for free coinage
of silver. If the banking and money
interests Of the east could have realized
the true condition of affairs and aided
in perfecting a wise and liberal system
of bank issues. I do not believe there
would have been any trouble in adj
.iusting the silver question without a
change of the present standard. 1t is
also true that much disappointment
has been felt because the tariff. as
passed, was not brought to q strictly
revenue basis, and the defeat of the
income tax by the supreme court has
contributed substantially toward ag
gravating conditions. We cannot ex-
pect the people who dwell away from

BASE MALIGNITY TOWARDS SILVER
MEN.

A few days ago the New York Times
had an article in which it stated that
under the free and unlimited coinage
! of silver the business Of making unau-
I thorized, or 'moonshine' dollars, would
doubtless receive a sudden BOOM etc.
A correspondent picks up the argu-
ment and shows the flaw in it. He
says to him it seems that the present
time. when a silver dollar has a bullion
value OF only about fifey-two cents
there is a greater inducement to make
coun6erfeits, of intrinsically the same
value as the government dollar, than
there would be under silver free COIN
would doubtless be higher
The Times answers that the consid-
erations adduced are pertinent, and
says that the correspondent seems to
overlook the fact that time would be,
in case Of Bryan's election, of the ut
most consequence to owners of silver
mines and silver bullion Why would
time be of such great consequence to
them? The reasons assigned by the
Times are these:
Every owner of silver bullion would
rush for a foremost place in the line
OF men waiting to have a half dollars
worth stamped as a, dollar. The faciii-
ties of the public minis would not begin
to supply this demand. Silver mine
owners are now, we must assume, de-
TERED from coming their own bullion
by the statute in that case made and
~ 4
would be engaged in a benefcent
work in cheapendng the dollar. Can
anybody imagine a Bryan district at
torney prosecuting the coiner and ut
terar' of a fifty-three-cent dollar, even
while the statutory prohibition was al
lowed to remain? Evidently not Pri-
Valte, or ''moonShine,' minis would
meet the demand and enable their own
ers to get the start of their competitors
or to remain on even terms with them
That is the lowest, most contemplate
insinuation, it is more than an insin-
uation, it is a direct charge against
Mr.. Bryan and the silver men that
we have seen. The Times assumes that
the only reason silver mine owners
(why did it not include all advocates
of free silver0 are deferred from en-
gaging in counterfeiting the coin of
the country is through fear of the pen
alties for such crime. No silver advo-
cate assumes that the reason why gold
advocates do not engage in the business
of counterfeiting is because of their
fear of the law, but they assume that
they have no desire to counterfeit
coin because they are honest men, as a
rule, though they are radically wrong
on the financial question. When any
person. paper or party assumes that
those who differ from him or it ON any
question, political or other, are born
rascals and criminals, that person, pa
per or party will indulge in rascality

THEATRICAL sorLED LINEN.


Theatrical people sometimes wonder
why society does not receive them with
open arms. There may be many reas-
ons, but one is that there are so many
scandals among theatrical people.
and the scandals are often used as a
means of advertising. 1t has come to
be a standing joke that the first requi-
site for the dramatic career is a scan

the proprieties. but they always pay a
certain Difference to them, and when
they are openly disregarded, disregard
ed to the extent of defiance, they will
not give social countenance TO those
guilty of this disregard. Theatrical
people are oftener charged with vioIat-
ing the proprieties than others.
The latest case of a washing of dirty
theatrical linen is that of the actor Nat
Goodwin. And a pretty mess the whole
thing is. He sues his wife for divorce,
alleging for cause intenperance. She
will defend the suit, but ask for an alb

sheep in it, not by the number of
white ones.

it is Alva in the Lowlands or Weyler in

tons are the past, the modern spirit of
