Another Bond Issue Coming.

Since April II, or in about rs days,
nearly $50, 100000 of the government
treasury gold has been shipped to
Europe. In a fortnight more at this
rate the government $1O0,OO0,OOO gold
reserve will again be broken into,
Cleveland and Carlisle, it is now re-
ported, and many Ct the congress
ional representative of the gold and
bond interests, will strongly oppose
an early adjournment and are in
favor of prolonged currency agita-
ton, before the end of which they
will make another attempt to secure
an act to issue gold bonds with which
to take up $500, 100000 of greenbacks
and treasury notes. Failing in this,
Cleveland and Carlisle will do as they
did last time-issue another batch of
bonds, without authority of law, to
subserve the interests of Wall street.
1t is expected that Cleveland will
send to congress another bond
message before the session ends, in
which he threatens to issue 100000
600 further of bonds if congress de-
clines to obey his instructions.
The.thre bond issues of the admin
istration thus far aggregate $500, OOO,-
600. On these, his favorite gold syn
dictate has realized from to 20 cents
on the dollar. He has issued govern
ment bonds at 4 per cent, when the
bonds of New York city were being
issued at d and 3 per cent. The
Republican lower house of congress,
by an overwhelming majority, at
Cleveland's command, passed a bill
to issue s500,0OO,0O0 of bonds with
which to retire $5OO,OOO,OOO of
treasury notes and greenbacks, but
the bill was defeated by the Southern
and Western senators in the upper
house. What the Republicans in the
lower house will do when his next
message is Forthcoming, is a matter
of conjecture. 1t is apparent that if
the Republicans of that house do not
belong to the same party as Grover
Cleveland they ought to belong to
misrepresentation

Why l8 to l.

Sixteen TO one means 16 ounces OF
silver shall equal, when coined into
money, one ounce of gold when coin
ed into money. The ratio can be
changed in four ways-by increasing
the amount of silver in the silver dol
lar, by reducing the amount of silver
in the silver dollar, by increasing the
amount of gold in a gold coin, and by
reducing the amount of gold in gold
coin. For instance, the ratio can be
made 80 to by doubling the amount
Of silver in the dollar, or by reducing
the amount OF gold in the dollar one
half. Why advocate 16 to /? Because
if the ratio should be made say 80 to
by increasing the amount OF silver in
the silver dollar, our 400 millions of
silver dollars would have to be re-
coined into half that number, thus
contracting the money volume 200
million dollars and making times
much harder than they are. To es-
tablish the ratio of 80 TO by reduc-
ing the size of gold coins one-half,
would necessitate the recoinage of
our gold money into twice the num-
Der of dollars in gold we now have.
This wouldn't be bad idea, the dol
lars would still be worth 100 cents,
but it would raise howl among the
contractionists. Making the ratio 8
by reducing the silver dollar one
half its present size would require
the coinage of our 400 million silver
dollars into 500 million dollars, and
though the dollars would still be
100 cents, the contractionists would
faint if such proposition were to be
made.
Sixteen to one is the present ratio
and has been the ratio ever since
June IS, 1884. From 1909 to 1884 the
ratio was Is to 1, but in the latter
year the ratio was changed by re-
ducing the amount of gold in dol
lar.
There are but two propositions be-
fore the people as far as ratio is con-
cerned. One is 16 to l, the other is to
contract the money volume by max
ing the ratio greater by increasing
the size of the silver dollar. 1t re-
solves itself down to a question of ex :
pansion or contraction, and that is
all there is in it.-Missouri World.

BY EIGHT POINTS
Win Over
Denver Team.
Take Defeat Gracefully - State
That it Was Due to Absence
of Members.

The reports from the Denver Rife
Club, while satisfactory to the Sharp
shooters team, are very meagre as TO
detail The letter given below shows
that the boys from the Centennial
State, while gracefully yielding the
palm to far off Hawaii, are not salts
fed that they cannot recover the hon
ors lost on a second trial
The absence of three good shots nat
urally made a difference in the score,
and if those men had been at the range
it is possible the result would have
been different; at the same time it
must not be forgotten that the local
team lost by not having McVeigh at the
butts. 1t should also be remembered
that the local team used ordinary
Springfield rifles with siX-pound trig-
gers and field sights, while their OPP
ponents used the regular match rifles,
with hair triggers and globe sights.
The advantages in this respect were in
favor of the Denver team, so much so
in fact, that they were willing to give
the SharpshOoters a handicap, but
which was declined. Another match
with both teams shooting under equal
conditions would be better test of the
supremacy of either. Following are
the totals of each man taking part:

Meeting of the Association and
Business Matters Settled.

M
Taking into consideration the stormy
weather of yesterday, there was quite a
good attendance at the regular monthly
meeting of the Y. NJ. c. A. in the AS
ISOLATION hall last night.
After the reading of the minutes of the
previous meeting and the consideration
of small matters of business, the names
of fifteen applicants for membership We're
read. These were Immediately voted into
the Association.
There was some complaint about the
neglect on the part of many of the mem
bers of the Y. NJ. G. a. to engage in act
i've work for the good of the Association.
1t was deemed hardly fair that the bur-
den of responsibility should be cast upon
the shoulders of a few workers when
there were so many members who by
doing just little would relieve this bur-
den and advance the interests of the As
ISOLATION.
1t was agreed that an attempt should
be made to reopen the gymnasium as
soon as possible. A gymnasium commit
tee was appointed to proceed with the
arrangements for such a line of action.
and to appoint the best members of the
gymnasium to organize classes to last
until such time as the proposed physi-
cal instructor from the States should
arrive.
H. F. Wichman was elected vice presi-
dent of the Association, as we'll as chair
man of the entertainment committee.
Rev H. w. Peck was elected chairman
of the temperance committee in place of
Theodore Richards, resigned.

ALMOST MURDER
Ben Ka1una Assaulted
With a Shovel.
Tom Mearns Welded Implement
First Struck by Kaluna.
Mearns in Jail.

What might have been a homicide oc-
CURED at the Nuuanu stream job shortly
before . o'clock yesterday afternoon. AS
it is, Ben Kaluna, an ex-policeman en-
ployed on the works, is at home nursing
a sore head, and Tom Mearns, another
employee, is in the station house.
1t seems that while the men were shov-
cling dirt some of II splashed on Mearns
and he demonstrated with Kaluna; words
followed and a fight ensued, in which
Mearns was thrown into the water and
held there by Kaluna. Foreman Fogarty,
who was standing some distance away,
heard the disturbance and ran over in
the direction from which the noise came.
When he saw how affairs were he
pushed Kaluna to one side and got
Mearns out of the water The affair was
being quietly settled, the foreman be-
iieved, when Mearns reached over with
his shovel and struck Kaluna a violent
blow on the right side of his head just
above the ear. He dropped like an OK
and it was thought for time that his
skull was fractured Mr.. Roweu drove
for DR.. Day and Mr.. Fogarty stopped
the flow of blood from the wound until
the arrival of the physician, when he
was removed TO a cottage in the neigh
borhood, where his wound was sewed up,
and then he was taken home. Mearns
was arrested and locked up.
While the affair was being discussed
among the men native named Ka1ua-
wal became incensed at something said
by Mcqueen, new luna, and made
strike at him. He was locked up with
Mearns and will have hearing today.

Frank S. Dodge, Esq:
Dear Sir-Your dispatch to Mr. J. N.
Lower was handed me today. I find your
team has defeated us by the close margin
of eight points, therefore did not think
it necessary to forward you the targets,
but will do so should you wish them.
Your representative, Mr.. F. II. Board
man, accompanied us to the range and
scored each shot as fired He informed
me that he would forward the scores to
you at once, hence the reason you do not
receive them through my hands as secre-
tary of the Denver Rife Club.
This is the first time, to my knowledge,
that the D. r. c. has been defeated, but
I don't suppose it will be the last. The
only excuse I can offer is that three of
our best shots were absent on the day of
the match, namely Colonel Denison, j.
a. Kicker and ]. n. Lower, the man who
has been corresponding with Mr.. w. H.
Bell. The absence of these men was
loss to us of at least twenty-five points.
However, we take our defeat with good
grace, hoping to have the opportunity of
trying our skill against you at some
future date.
