If the silver question were left to the
Sioux Indians to be decided, they would
speedily decide it in manner that would
prove perfectly satisfactory to the advo-
Gates of free silver coinage The Sioux
are naturally in favor of free silver COIN
age, principally because silver is more
easily counted by them than any other
kind of money. White Ghost, the vener-
able head of the Crow Creek Sioux, IN
discussing the money question while in
town recently, advanced some peculiar
ideas regarding money which, are I'M
doubleday shared by practically every
member of the Sioux nation. He says
that when the government pays the peo-
pie on his reservation the $19S, 600 due them,
he wants 1t paid in silver dollars. Cold
is detested by the Indians because the
coins are so small when the sums they
represent are taken into consideration.
White Ghost said he could not understand
why SO bill should not be just ten times
as large as a 81 bill. He thinks the gov
eminent should increase the size of bills
in proportion tb the sum they represent,
even If it was necessary that a 800 bill
should be as large as a horse blanket. II
the government persists in paying them
partly in bills they would like to see
the change made. But silver dollars are
what the Indians want, even should they
receive them in such quantities that they
would have to be transported to their
agencies in wagons.
