The republican party has not been
unfriendly to the proper use OF silver.
It has always favored and favors 10
day the use Of silver as part OF our
circulating medium. But 1t fayors that
use under such provisions and safe
guards as shall not imperil our present
national standard. The policy OF the
republican party is to retain both gold
and silver as d part Of our circulating
medium, while the policy of free COIN
age Of silver leads to certain silver
monometallism. 1t is an immutable law
that two moneys of unequal value Will
not circulate together, and that the
poorer always drives out the better.
Those who profess to believe that
this government, independent of other
great commercial nations, can open its
minis to the free and independent coin

when the commercial ratio in all the
great markets is thirty to one, and at
the same time not drive every dollar

themselves.
Great and splendid and powerful as
our government is, it cannot accomplish
the impossible. 1t cannot create value.

That three-times-a-week negro
dance on Maple street, had in the
cabin adjoining the Catholic ceme-
tery, is not calculated to lull one to
sleep, There is no law against dan
cling, as we know Of, but we think
there should be one against rowdy-
ism, loud laughing and patting OF
feet, such as they have at these
dances. We think we could corral
several witnesses whose slumbers
these dances disturb, and if they
are continued we will be bound to
make complaint, and see If quiet
and decency cannot be maintained
at these dances. Those who have
seen negroes dance, and know how
they strike the floor and pat with
their feet, with fog horn for a

the people suffer from these dances.
