A correspondent. who is evidently a
average Bryanite, writes me AZ follows
IF the claims OF the gold STANDARD
people are correct that a silver dolla
must actually have 100 cents worth O
metal in it to make it gold dollar. VIII.
10 paper dollar good money? Is til,
paper OF which it is made worth lO(
cents? As matter Of fact, is it no
simply because the government ha'
agreed to consider it 81? And woult
not a 16 to l dollar be as good as paper
or gold dollar provided the govern
ment would agree to so consider it,"
II did not know that this is the
logic Of thousands Of good Bryanites ]
should pass it over as altogether toe
childish to merit the space for q reply
The difference between coin money and
paper money. as recognized by the en-
tire world, is that coin needs no re-
demDtiop to make it good; whereas
without redemption, paper money is
utterly worthless. Payment in coin lie
actual payment, whereas paper money

ment. Whenever paper dollar is
passed from one person to another it is
done with the full knowledge that the
thing passed is purely vicarious and
without value in itself, but is accepted
in lieu Of actual value on the strength
OF somebody's promise to. scorer or
later, replace it with coin. The promise
is the only valuable thing about it. A
coin dollar, on the other hand, passes
from hand to hand, upon its own merits,
as thing Of actual value and without a
moments thought Of what will eventu-
ally becO.ie OF it. II. therefore, q coin
ls not what it is represented as being, it
Is fraud and counterfeit. 1t hasn't
even SO much as doubtful promise to
fall back upon, having been put afloat
AS an actually and not as a hypothesis.
Politics makes strange bed fellows. In
principle and origin no two propositions
could be more directly antagonistic than
free silver and free trade, and yet the
populists and Bryanites compound them
with most astonishing disregard of
iucompatibility. That no good com
mercial results can come from artificial
interference with the natural forces OF
trade Is the cardinal theory Of free
trade. and has been heretofore laid
down as an axiom by the democratic
party. Democratic philosophy has al
ways made much Of the point that leg
islation could create neither trade,
wealth. nor prosperity-that any
meddling with the natural laws of supply
and demand was obstructive and, in the
long run, ruinous. Once a gentleman

The jaw of the alligator differs from

his mouth, the lower jaw remains station

Some anatomists express the opinion

woman can talk longer than q man and
