SILVER DEMONETIZED.
The Bill was Passed by Trick and
Fraudulent Means.
Congress Passed the Blll Not Knowing
That 1t DemOnrtiz d Silver.

The following is taken from the Den
yer News OF recent date.
The statements of Mr.. Horace White
and others as to the enth of time that
the bill "To revise and amend the laws
relative to the mints, assay office and
coinage of the United States" was before
congress are substantially correct. 1t is
not the bill itself that is called in con-
troversy by the advocates OF the silver,
coinage, but the assertion that congress
intended by that act to demonetize sill
yer by stricking from the list OF coins the
silver dollar. The friends OF silver as
sert that this was accomplished by a
trick that congress passed the bill with
ont really knowing what that bill con-
tanned, that President Grant signed it ig-
norant OF the fact that it demonetized
silver, and that for some two years it re-
mained profound secret so far as the
people OF the country were concerned that
silver had been demonelized. The two
men who engineered the bill through con-
gress were Mr.. Hooper OF Massachusetts,
in the house, and John Sherman OF Ohio
in the senate.
Prior to the introduction OF the bill
which finally demonetized silver, two at
tempts we're made to secure the passage
OF suck al act, but both failed.
The bill which the conspirators finally
succeed in passing was introduced in
the house on March 8, 1871 order print
ed and referred to the committee on coin.
age. On January Q, 1872, Mr.. Kelly
chairman of the coinage committee
reported the bill with the recommend
alton that it pass. Mr.. Kelly stated tC
the house that it was q bill to codiiy anC
simplify the mint laws, and to create the
office OF director OF the mint, with head
quarters in the treasury department
Mr.. Maynard supplemented Judg'
Kelly's statement by an explanation tina
the general purpose OF the bill was t.
make the mint bureau OF the treasur.
department. Some discussion was ha,
regarding salaries and the coinage q

recommitted to the coinage committee.
Not word was said in the debate
regarding the dropping OF the silver
dollar from the coinage.
On February 8, 1872, the bill was again
reported by Mr.. Hooper from the coinage
committee. with amendments, and came
up for consideration on April 8. In
long explanation OF the bill, the only
reference made by Mr., Hooper to the
silver dollar was in the following Ian
guage
Section l6 re-enacts the provision OF
existing laws defining the silver coins
and their weights, respectively, except
in relation to the silver dollar, which
is reduced in weight from 4l21a to 1884
grains, thus making it a subsidiary
coin in harmony with the subsidiary
coins of less denomination, to secure
its convenient circulation with them.
The silver dollar of 4l2h grains, by
reason of its bullion and instrinsic val
ne being greater than its nominal val
he, long since ceased to he coin
OF circulation, and, lis melted by manu-
iacturers of silverware. 1t does not cir
culate now in commercial transactions
with any country, and the convenience
oI those manufacturers in this respect
can be better met by supplying small
stamped bars of the same standard, +,
avoiding the useless expense OF coming
the dollar for that purpose.
There was sharp debate developed
over the provisions OF the bill, during
which MIR. Potter OF New York asserted
that the bill carried the country to a gold
standard. The bill developed good
deal Of opposition, and finally its friends
proiessedly abandoned it, but brought
in substitute. This substitute, MIR.
Hooper explained, left out all the obiec-
tionable features.of the original bill, and,
on his motion, the rules were suspended
and the bill passed without being read.
Mr.. Hooper simply lied to the house
The difference between the original bill
and the substitute were immaterial and
trihing, and involved only change oI
phraseology, having in it the features
which had been attacked in the house
In this shape the bill went to the senate

the numbers of sections l5, l6 and II
between the bill as it came from the
house and the bill as amended as the
senate considered it. The bill then
passed in the form in which il became
law, and apparently not representative
nor a senator-except those in the con-
spiracy-knew that it dropped the silver
dollar from the coinage.
This is where the falsehoods OF such
writer's as Horace White come into view.
They make a parade OF the fact that
congress spent much time considering
the bill. So 1T did. BUTT never debated
the section that demonetized silver and
knew not what the bill really contained.
OF this fact there is ample evidence,
as the following extracts from speeches
of men who were in congress at the time.
and who voted for the bill will show:
Senator Thurman on the 10Th, OF
February, 1878, in debate said:
81 cannot say what took place in the
house, but know when the bill was
pending in the senate we thought it was
simply a bill to reform the mint, regulate
coinage, and fix up one thing and another
and there is not single man in the sem
ate, think, unless member OF the COM
mittee from which the bill came, who
had the slightest idea that it'was even

The workman often eats his luuch
on the same bench where he does
his work. The office man turns his
desk into dining table Neither
gets the out of doors exercise he
needs, neither takes the proper time
for eating. 1t is small wonder that
the digestion of each gets out of
order. In such cases DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets come to their as
sistance by aiding nature in taking
care of the food
The cause of nine-tenths of the
sickness of the world is constipa-
ton. From this one cause come
indigestion; disorders of the stom-
ach, liver and kidneys; biliousness,
headaches, fatulence, heartburn,
impurity of the blood and the serl-
Gus complications that follow. To
begin with, constipation is a little
thing, and a little thing will cure it
The pleasant Pellets" are tiny,
sugar coated granules. They will
perfectly cure the worst case of
constipation and Indigestion. If
the druggist tries to sell you some
other pill that pays him greater
profit, just think of what will best
pay you.
