The habit potentates have of travel

where it is least expected. 1t is said
of the emperor of Austria that once,
travelling in this manner, he put up at
an inn. After eating a few slices of
han and biscuit he went to bed.
In the morning he paid his bill and
departed.

arrived, and, hearing the rank of his
guest, the landlord appeared much
troubled.

THE NORMAL'S SOCIAL SIDE.
Lecture and Reception at Temp
 Thursday Evening.

Rev. c. J. Chase at Tempe Thursday night gave the first of four lectures under the auspices of the senior class of the Territorial Normal school. Class President Carl Hayden pre- sided. The seating capacity of the Baptist church was taxed by the number come to greet the lecturer. The address, full of mirth-provoking sallies, was upon 'The Right Kind of Man or Woman to Love-" As the majority of the attendants were in the springtime of life it may be believed that no more interesting subject could have been selected. Following the lecture the pupils and friends dropped off to the residence of Dr. McNaughton, principal of the Normal. The recep- tion was esp specially in honor of Mr. Chase and wife. Misses Sharpe and Rice of the Normal faculty assisted Dr. and Mrs. McNaughton in the en- tertainment of the merry throng. Lately to the social side of the Normal many pleasant features have been add ed and the reception of Thursday even ing is a memory of special pleasure to those in attendance.

An Item of Expense.

In handling silver and using it as
currency lies the fact that $50 Of gold
can be stored in the same space as 81
Of silver. This has entailed an expense
of many hundreds of thousands of dol
lars on our government in the last 18
years for storing the silver dollars which
the people registered as too umbersome
for their pockets. Every time the treas
ury changes hands, and probably much
oftener in the banks of this country, the
stock Of coin is counted over. 1t is just
as easy to count $40, 600 in gold double
eagles as $1,000 in silver. If we open
our minis to silver, all gold will disap.
pear from circulation, at least so far as
domestic business is concerned, and o
large and increasing expense will be in.
ficted on the mercantile class, and to a
lesser degree on the whole community,
in handling and counting the more
cumbersome coin.

THE QUESTION PLAINLY STATED.
Free Coinage of Silver Would BE Mon
strous Injustice. o

Free Coinage of Silver Would BE . Mon
strous Injustice. o
The free coinage of silver as defined
by the friends Of that policy in the bill
pending in the United States senate
means that any person owning silver
bullion to the value of $50 may deliver
it to any United States mint and re-
ceive for it 100 legal tender dollars. It
means that the government shall coin,
free Of charge, in standard or legal ten
der silver dollars, all the silver bullion
that may be presented to it, and thus
pay premium of 48 per cent to every
holder Of silver bullion.
When it is remembered that the silver
producing interest embraces but an in
initesimal portion of the people Of the
country as compared with those who
produce iron, coal, cotton, cottons,
woolens, wheat and other products of
the farm, the monstrous injustice Of the
government paying to one petty class
OF producers nearly double the value Of
their products should make every honest
minded citizen recoil against it. In
short, free silver coinage means that
the government shall buy all the silver
bullion offered at nearly double its mar
ket value.
But he paternalism of the govern
ment toward the silver producers in
paying nearly double the market value
for all their product would be but a
small portion Of the appalling wrong
that must be done to the country by the
establishment Of such a financial sys-
tenn. The day that the free and unlim-
tied coinage of silver ON basis Of 16
to l shall be adopted by this govern
ment would witness the entire change
Of our financial system from gold to
silver basis, and this government would
take rank with the pagan and semicivi-
LIKED nations Of the world, and forfeit
the credit and confidence Of the great.
civilized nations that have so largely
aided our advancement, and without
which we could not maintain CONNER
cial and industrial prosperity for day.
When the government wanted to bor-
row money, it would be required to pay
81 for 81, as Mexico, China and Japan
now do, and labor would have little if
any increase in wages, while the dollar
earned would produce only 80 cents
worth of the necessaries of fe.-Phila-

Cheating the Creditor.

If these glorifiers of the old order o
things could restore the conditions tina
prevailed previous to 1878 and make
the market value of silver what it wa
then, they would not want free coinage
There would be nothing in it for them
What they really want is cheap money
a kind of money with which creditors
can be cheated. They are not trying Il
put silver back to its old place and re
establish the monetary system that ex
listed before the great crime" was com
mitted. Their scheme does not imply
the coinage of better dollars than those
we now'have. but infinitely poorer ones
which can be used in the payment o.
debts at the rate of 53 cents On the dol
