Short-weight Dollars.

Mr.. Jefferson. when he set about
the task Of finding out what would
be proper coinage ratio for the gold
and silver money of the United
States, came to this conclusion, OK
pressed in his own words
The proportion between the values OF
gold and silver is 1ercantile problem al
| together Just principles will lead us to dis
regard the legal proposition, 10 inquire into
the market price Of goldiu the several coun-
tries with which we shall probably be con-
neeted in commerce, and take an average
from them"
On this basis Of the average mar
ket price the ratio of ) ounces Of
silver to / Of gold was first estab.
iished and forty-two years afterward
changed to rstio ofI6 to 1 in order
to make a nearer approximation to
actual market values.
"A false balance SAYS Solomon.

Just weight is His delight" 1t is
now proposed, instead Of putting
dollars worth of silver into a dollar. |
to make and stamp a com as a dollar
which has only 50 cents worth Of sill

10 accept it as n dollar. This is a
fraud. 1t cannot be accomplished

Buying silver to Pay Debts.

Mr. Bryan says he wants THING,
fixed so that a man who is in debt
can 90 to the market. buy silver have
it coined without charge and paw his
debts with it. or course the man
will buy the silver at the market
price. At present the market price
of such a chunk of silver as Mr.
Bryan wants coined into one dollar
is about fifty-three cents. Therefore
it is logically argued, Mr.. BRYAN
wants a man to be able to pay a debt
Of one dollar with what cost him
and is worth in the market-onlv
ffty-three cents.
Against this some siIverites race

that no man, except, perhaps, the au-
thor of such an argument, would be
