Through the courtesy of George
Fairchild of Tuscarora. we have the
pleasure Of laying before our readers
the following choice bit of informa-
ton regarding the capacity of our
people to take care Of the gold pro-
duced in the United States. The
item first saw the light in the issue of
November %, 1895 of the Standard
and Diggers News, published at 10.
hannesburg, South African Republic,
and received by Mr.. Fairchild's father
short time ago. It is as follows:
"The Director of the United States
Mint predicts a flood of American
gold in the next few years; and his
chief reason for this is that Cripple
Creek is alleged to be producing over
one-quarter Of the output of the South
African fields, while steps are beng
taken to revive interest in the mines
of Chicago and Philadelphia"
While the ignorance Of this editor
Of the resources and extent Of Uncle
Sans dominioDs may not be as dense
as milestone, it might add to his
stock, OF information regarding this
country to have the cathode ray of
common sense turned on the Opaque
substance in his head that does duty

IF THE democratic ticket Is elected and free and unlimited coinage of sill yer at ratio of l6 t0 becomes the financial policy of the United States, will the purchasing power of a Mex ican dollar in the stores of Nogales increase until it equals that of an American dollar, or will the purchas- ing power of the American dollar de- crease until it will buy no more than the Mexican dollar now does? e. g. Now a Nogales grocer will sell twelve pounds of granulated sugar for an American dollar, but he will give only seven pounds of the same kind of sugar for a Mexican dollar. With free and unlimited coinage of silver by the United States will the American dol lar continue to buy twelve pounds of granulated sugar at Nogales, or will it buy only seven pounds?

POLITICAL gratitude has been de- fined by Macauley as ia lively sense of expected fayor.' Having had from President Cleveland all they can hope to get, the Nogales bread and butter brigade, at the custom house, now show their gratitude by shouting for Bryan and in commenting the Chicago platform framed by a convention which deliberately and intentionally sighted Mir. Cleveland.
The oasis., 1896-07-18

WHILE in furtherance of their own interests the owners of silver mines have a perfect right to stand for free coinage of silver by the United States, all other people have an interest in the settlement of this money question and they have right to have their interest presented and discussed. Every man whose wages are paid in American money will be affected in some way by sudden adoption Of free coinage of silver. Everyone who has sold on time merchandise, real prop erty or stock, would be affected, and he has right to full discussion of the subject in order to determine exactly where his interests lie in the matter and how.

WHEN the Nogales custom house crowd so far forgot the hand which feeds them as to call meeting Of democrats to ratify the nominations and platform of a convention which deliberately rejected a resolution com. mending the administration of Presi- dent Cleveland, they exhibited a colossal ingratitu1e which was even surprising to all who know the i'm maculate gall of the outfit.

WHEN they count the votes from the Arizona ballot boxes next fall it will be found that there are thousands Of Arizonans just as patriotic, just as earnest in their desire for rehabillta- tion of silver as the loudest shouter for free independent coinage, who have accepted the sober second thought of the party, as expressed at St. Louis, and support the proposition to seek it's rehabilitation by interna- tional agreement.
