A. W.. Knightstown: l. One of the sup
posed advantages of free silver and the chief
one is that 1t would increase the volume of
the currency: but as all the gold would cease
to be money with free coinage that change
would take from the volume OF the currency
more than one-third OF the present total.
2. The ratio Of 16 to / has been explained
many times. 1t meant that when the ratio
was made by Congress sixteen ounces Of sill
yer was deemed to have the same market
value as one ounce of gold, and that the
money coined from them would have the
same market value and purchase power. AT
the present time one ounce of gold will pur-
chase over thirty ounces OF silver, So that
the dollar made OF silver. II not held mp by
gold under limited coinage, would be worth
as money only little over SO cents. To IL
lustrate: Mexico has free silver coinage, but
the Mexican dollar in Mexico will purchase
but half as much as the United States
standard silver dollar, because those can be
sent back to the United States and there
purchase as much merchandise as a gold
dollar. 3. The South is interested in free
silver probably because its people assume
that the obligations due the North can be
paid more easily under a free silver regime
than with the money now in use. That is,
If the United States were on a silver basis
cotton would have gold price for Europe
and silver one here, just as was the case
before the resumption of specie payments
At the present difference between the values
of the metal in our gold and silver coin
cotton bringing cents a pound in Europe
In gold would bring IA or 10 cents here In
silver. If cotton-grower had debts to pay
the silver price would be much to his advant.

silver will purchase no more than the |

1t is not often that an important meas
ure passes the House as easily as the
Labor Commission bill did on Monday.
The discussion of the bill occupied less
than an hour, and it was passed by a
viva voce vote instead of the usual yeas
and nays. 1t authorizes the President
to appoint a body to be called the in
dustrial commission to be composed Of
three representatives each Of agriculture.
business. labor and manufacturing. The
commission will be nonpartisan, ma
jority not to be of either political party.
1t will have power to investigate ques-
tions pertaining to immigration, labor,
agriculture. manufacturing and business.
and recommend legislation to Congress.
Each of the twelve commissioners will
serve two years at a salary Of $4,000 a
year. The usefulness of the commission
will depend entirely on the character Of
the persons appointed. The bill is ex-
pected to pass the Senate without
trouble.

being first discussion as to the
amount OF money required to build
the line from Deer River to the east
ern boundary of the Red River Valley,
and second the ways and means to
raise the amount needed.
Discussions followed by Messrs.
Hines, Grindeland, Adams and H.
Steenerson, and it was generally con-
ceded that it would be necessary to
raise $3OO,O00 to begin the work and
to construct theroadbed and bridges,
putting it in shape that more money
could be raised. Messrs. Halvor Stee
nerson, George B. Clifford, Hon. P.
NJ. Hendricks, Elias Steenerson and
j. D. Wallace followed in a discussion
as to the best ways and means to
raise the funds. 1t was suggested
that if the first 25 miles we're built
and put in operation, that it could
be bonded and enough funds raised
to carry on the work for another 25
miles, and SO on to the finish. A num-
Der OF suggestions were made, and it
is probable that another meeting will
be held soon to decide upon the adop-
tion Of definite plan.
A list was read showing the tax
