The present discussion of the silver
question and everything relative TO silver
Will probably result in the clearing away
of good many errors IN relation 10 the
white metal, and its use for coin pur-
poses. Last evening party of gentle
men were discussing the political situa-
tion and prospects and very naturally
silver came in for good share of atten-
tion. IL was aWusing, however,ssto listen
TO these gentlemen when they took up
the matter of the quantity of silver in
the dollar. One OF the party who was near
er rIRht than the others said, that the
''dolliar of our dsddies," as those coined
under the act OF 1892 were callsd, con-
tanned more silver than the standard
dollar, ana moro silver than was ever pat
into any other dollar ever coined by the
government. Had he left off the last
cfause be would have stated what is the
actual fact.

The Gossiper is asked IL it is true that
on some occasions the Vice President. has
take the oath of o.lice before the Presi-
dent. Some months ego this matter was
treated upon at length In this column,
but for The benefit of the present inquirer
the question Will be briefly answered
again. John Adams, the first Viee-Presi-
deni. took the oath of office and became
Vice-P President OF the United States nearly
month before Washington was in
agurated as President Milard Fillmore
was sworn in on March 4. 1919. when that
date was Sunday, while Taylor, who
was rigid Sabbaiarian, would not per-
NIT his own induction to Office until tho
following day. In 1877 March again
fell on a Sunday, ana IT has always been
understood that Vice-President Wheeler
was sworn in on that day, while presi-
dent Hayes, because of his religious
views, postponed his induction into Office
until Monday. The .most peculiar OF
these cases, however is that OF 1889, when
the government having just come into
existence took on, through forco of CIR
cnmstances, the curious condition OF hsv-
ing Vice. President but no President.
The people of that day gave the matter
no particular attention. They knew that
Washington was delayed, ana the matter
of three or four weeks postponement OF
the Inauguration would not in their
view, seriously interfere with the success
OF the new government.
