That FIFTY Cent Dollar.

A subscriber living in Puerto de Luna,
at the end of business letter to this
paper, asks the following question: "Sup.
pose that Mr.. B., living in Las Vegas, has
$1,000 in gold, could he not If the free
coinage bill was passed, 60 to Mexico or
to London and buy silver amounting to
nearly $4,000 and then return to America
worth twice what he was when he left, and
would not the rich be benefited then in
stead of the poor"
In answer to subscriber, who, by the
way, is man whom we respect very
highly, we will say that all this talk of
50-cent dollar is the rankest kind of
"bosh;" that in case it becomes evident
that free coinage act will pass, the price
of silver will steadily advance, until be-
fore the act takes effect an ounce of silver
will be worth $1.29, or the silver in a sill
yer dollar will be of equal value with the
gold in gold dollar. If gold had been
demonetized in 1873 and silver had been
kept as the standard, gold to-day would
have been worth probably but so cents
on the dollar. The New York Sun, an
advocate of the single standard, is honest
enough to admit that there will be no
such thing as a 5O.cent dollar If silver is
remonetized.
The passage of free coinage act may
make some people better of In this
worlds goods, We hope so at least, a.
some compensation for the demonetiza-
tion, making the great masses a great
deal poorer.Las Vegas Optic. Repub-
lican.

The colored man and brother is gain
ing wisdom as time passes on. At the
Negro national Democratic league con-
vention in Chicago the other day, there
being present about 100 representative
colored men from all parts of the. country,
it was resolved that: 1--WE, being an i'm
portant factor, representing 100000
voters, feel it duty to cast our votes
against the monopolies, trusts, combines
and millionaires, favored in the platform
adopted by the national Republican con-
vention for gold" The resolutions also
denounced Mark Hanna and the national
committee "for endeavoring to force
upon the common people the issue of a
protective tariff which protects indus
tries that discriminate against the negro"
Santa Fe daily New Mexican., 1896-08-19
A CHANGE OF FRONT.

The Republican national campaign
managers have changed front since Bry-
ans New York speech went to the people,
and they are now fioundering about like
a rudderless ship at sea while trying to
undo their past blunders. Their at
tempt to belittle and discredit American
money by inducing the Armours and
other corporationists to work the Mexi-
can dollar fake proved a boomerang, the
patriot workingmen of the country 80
roundly denouncing the silly scheme that
it had to be ordered off. So also now has
their effort to squeeze labor into voting
for Mckinley served as roorbach and
entangled them in sea of tribulations.
1t will be remembered that just prior
to the Chicago convention and immedi-
ately following Bryan's nomination there
was a concerted movement among the
great manufacturing corporations OF
Pennsylvania and elsewhere, under the
direction of the Arkwright club-a gold
and greed trust working in the interest
of Mckinley under the direction of the
Hanna syndicate-to shut down their
works and discharge their men, sowing
to the silver craze" they said. The idea
was to read the workingmen center
shot object lesson. Taking bread from
the mouths of labor and its dependents
it was thought, would force them to get
out and swear by the gold standard and
Mckinley. But how did it work! The
workingmen of this day long since
passed the foolish age. They are abund'
antly able to study the problem for them
selves, and so it happened that the object
lesson sought to be taught by the cor
porationists only served to make the
laborinp masses adhere closer to the
idea that the goldbug policy must be put
down.
Now, after some six weeks trial of this
policy, we find the Republican campaigners
shifting their course. They found they
had made a mistake. Labor can not be
coerced into supporting policy dia.
metrically opposed to it's welfare, and the
scheme has been given up as a bad job
What is the result? A Pittsburg dis
patch in the st. Louis Globe-Demo ocrat
tells part of the story:
"Al of the Pittsburg mills which were
idle two weeks ago because of the bust
ness uncertainty have resumed, some on
double turn, full time. The Sligo mill is
the last to join the column. The man
agement notified the men that next Mon
day the entire plant will 60 on double
turn. The Clinton blast furnace, which
has been out of blast, will be blown in to-
morrow. The Clinton mill, which has
also been idle, will be started as soon as
there is an accumulation of working ma
terial. The Republic, Zug, Schoenberger
and Oliver mills have resumed work. In
the glass trade manufacturers are pre-
pairing to put their works into operation
as soon as the wage scales are settled"
Here is switch-back that amply illus
trates the weakness of Hanna's campaign
for gold and greed. Evidently the Mo
Kinley syndicate has discovered that the
workingmen of this fair land realize that
Mr.. Bryan meant something when he
said, "You shall not press upon the brow
of labor this crown of thorna."

SIXTEEN ITO ONE.

Sixteen to one simply means
the basis of valuation fixed by
law between gold and silver. six
teen ounces or grains of silver
equaling in value one ounce or
grain of gold.
Previous to 1878 silver was re-
ceived by the United States mints
and coined on the 16 to basis
and the nation was prosperous.
During that year silver was de-
monetized by bill which simply
dropped the words "Silver Dol
lar" from the coinage law. 1t
was some time after the bill was
signed before it was known that
it had killed the coinage of sill
yer. President Grant claimed
that he signed the measure with
out noticing the omission of the
"Silver Dollar" Afterward Con-
gressman Bland introduced a
bill to remonetize silver but it
was vetoed by President Hayes.
Finally in 1890 the Sherman act
directing the government to pur-
chase 4,5OO,0OO ounces per month
was passed. This act was re-
pealed in 1893 and silver again
demonetized. Previous to this
silver was also killed in India.
Now the friends of the white
metal simply ask that silver be
restored to its old place.
