The Gresham Law Demonstrated.

Because in all ordinary business mat
tiers the best quality of goods sold at q
certain price invariably drives out an
inferior quality sold at the same price.
the silverites deny that If under l6 to
free coinage law silver forced gold out
Of use 1t would show that the silver
money was worth less than the gold.
"If," they ask, "a good quality Of -four
or tea drives out inferior goods, why
does not the same rule apply to money!"
That it docs not is due to the fact that
whereas goods Of all kinds are sold on
their own merits, cheap kind of money
Is forced on the public by laws which
make 1t legal tender. This is clearly
shown in the operation of the Sherman
silver purchase law, under which legal
tender notes representing silver bullion
were issued The effect Of that law on
the kind Of money used in paying Gus
toms duties at tho principal port of ell
try In the United States is stated as fol-
lows by ex-Secretary Of the Treasury
Charles Foster in q recently published
letter: 1.-THE Sherman law alarmed the
financial centers as to the disposition OF
the government to maintain gold pay
ments.
"Then, in the financial centers. the
quality Of our money was critically con-
sidered. While gold, silver and treasury
notes are legal tender, yet the fact is
silver Is the least valuable, and treasury
notes not 80 valuable as gold.
Under the alarming conditions re-
ferred to the Gresham law was put to
a test under the severest possible condi-
tions, and was found to be infallible
Customs dues were paid in silver, in the
main, and In treasury notes. Gold pay
ments for customs dues practically
ceased"
For the fiscal year 1901 the gold re.
oeipts at the New York custom house
were $l10,80O, 900; for 1891-2 they
were $81, 600, 900, and for 1923 only
$1,000. 900. The cheaper money was
used instead Of gold, the dearer. as it
always will be.

Refore Stewart's Mind Wandered.

Senator Stewart was once as rational
on the money question as are most other
men. On Feb. 30, 1874. he was, as he Is
yet, senator from Nevada, but his
mind had not begun to wander on silver
and the "crime Of 1878" He then said :
by this process we shall come to q
specie basis, and when the laboring
man receives a dollar 1t will have the
purchasing power Of dollar, and he
will not be called upon to do what is
impossible for him or the producing
classes to do-figure upon the exchanges,
figure upon the fluctuations, figure upon
the gambling in New York. But he
will know what his money is worth.
Gold is the universal standard of the
world. Everybody knows what a dollar
In gold is worth"

Question, 'shall the United States Attempt
Free Coinage Alone7"

Free Coinage Alone7"
It is inspiring to listen to the Till
mans. Blands and other go 1t aloners
when they declare our monetary inde-
pendence Of all other countries and our
ability to make anything money at any
ratio we may please with any other
thing. Not all, however, Of the friends
of silver" are ignorant Of financial his
tory or without ballast Of common
sense. DR.. E. Benjamin Andrews, pres
ident of Brown university, is and has
always been q warm friend Of silver.
He knows better, however, than to at
tempt what is clearly impossible. Not
only that, but he pictures the dangers
Of independent free coinage as vividly
as have any Of the so called "goldbugs "
Hero is his reply, published some time
ago in the Chicago Record, to the ques-
tion, "Shall the United States attempt
the FREQ coinage Of silver alone?"
If we take up the metal alone, and
that course results, as should anticipate,
in the expulsion Of gold. we shall have
in tho first place financial crisis worse
than any ever suffered in the country,
this because we cannot In long time,
even by working our mints day and
night, coin silver enough to take the
place which would be vacated by gold.
Prices would surely fall. Immense
numbers Of failures would occur. La
borers would be thrown out Of work.
Altogether dreadful paroxysm in our
business would be precipitated. Slowly
the gap left by gold would bo filled by
the mining and coinage of silver. Prices
would then gradually rise. At last they
would become higher than now. moro
and more approaching the Mexican and
Japanese level.
"But consequence far worse than
any Of these would be that our passage
to O silver basis would erect against for
eign exchange between Europe and the
United States just such barrier as now
exists aetween Europe and Mexico. 1t
would annihilate all fixed par between
New York and London, repeating tho
terrible inconvenience in our European
exchanges which we suffered in war
times when we were upon q paper basis. "

The Tillman' Programme.

The following is Ben Tillman's plan
of campaign as laid down in his speech
last night:
First. The silverites should do their
best to get control of the Democratic ma
tional convention
Second.--If they fail in this they
should bolt and nominate candidate
of their own.
Third. If their candidate is defeated,
they should proceed to cut throats and
break up the government.
This is in brief the line Of conduct
Tillman advocated last night. Atlanta

NOT SOUND so FlR.

We have heard much during the last
few weeks about the firm stand for
sound money which the Democratic
party was going to take. The first
democratic State convention has just
met in Oregon and the result was fav-
orable to that element which insists
upon a free-coinage deliverance at
Chicago next July. The friends Of
sound money asked nothing more than
a reafIlrmation of the currency plank
on which Cleveland ran in 1892, but
the silverites insisted upon an GUITAR d.
out declaration for '16 to l." and car
ried the day by vote of 1852 to 81. The
next Democratic State convention will
be held in Missouri this week, and the
free-coinage men have been carrying
everything before them, almost every
county convention having adopted
strong resolutions favoring free coin
age, while the sound money men secur-
ed only ten out of the 6S delegates from
the city of ST. Louis.
These are good examples for the Re-
publican party not to follow.

FASHION NOTES.

Rivalling the Bird of Paradise.
New combinations of colors appear
on every side in the array of fashiona-
bles, Pale lavender and pale yellow is
already established, but mulberry or a
distinct purple with orange, is new.
and the two are blended by clouding
the orange with gray chiffon or lace
and covering the purple with silver
embroidery. The OVERLAPPING Of one
color on another accomplishes the COM
bination of several shades without
glaring effect. For instance, cerise is
overlaid with gray, and pale blue Is
used in combination with the double
effect. White shines through yellow
and lavender overlaid with black goes
with it, the two double effects being
supplemented by a flash of clear green.
Many a new spring dress has q color
scheme that is worthy of a bird of par
adise, and the one the artist offers for
consideration here is of that type, be-
sides being Of novel construction. 1t is
of steel blue taffeta, with its wide skirt
edged with an ACCORDION pleated ruff

blouse is entirely draped with pleated
green chiffon and the over jacket is of
steel-blue velvet edged with galoon
with deep caps over the arms. The
latter are slashed and show the galoon
edging in addition to large bows of
blue and green striped satin ribbon.
Like ribbon ornaments the stock collar
and forms the pendant loops on the ga
loon belt. Full chiffon sleeves COM
plete the blouse.
Dainty muslin blouse affairs are
made with dropping sleeves and are
apparently drawn into shape by the
ribbonbelt. These waists are often
made of very sheer material and are
worn over close-fitting under waists of
silk. Almost garish tints are selected
for these goods, but they are voted cor
rect. Among the shades of few years
ago that are revived in the rush for
high colors is a lovely coral pink-not
the blazing cerise, but a softened pink
scarlet. 1t Is universally becoming, it
puts pink into the cheeks of the pale
girl, softens the red of q rudy girl,
and it is one of the few colors that suit
the white hair and dull tinting of eye.

THE MoNr1cEu1o prLenrMAGE.

Tomorrow at Monticello the Ma
tiona1 Association of Democratic clubs
will assemble to celebrate the birthday
of the founder of the Democratic party
and to gain inspiration and enthusi-
asm for the coming campaign.
The Democrats are much in need Of
inspiration and enthusiasm, and per-
haps they do well to try to get them
from the dead, for the living don't seem
able to supply them. 1t is indeed a
melancholy time for Democrats. BY
false pretenses they got chance to
try to govern the country. They have
once more shown themselves unable to
do what they have often glibly prom
ised to do and as often failed to do.
This time the failure is unusually COM
plete and conspicuous. The tariff for
revenue" has turned out to be tariff
for deficit. The prosperity that was so

ministration. Everybody is Disguised

"A prominent Democrat has express
ed the wish that tomorrow the shade
of Thomas Jefferson would rise from
the tomb and tell the party leaders
what to do. The Democratic party's
belief in spirits is strong, but we do
not suppose that anybody expects to
see and hear Jefferson tomorrow. If
he should happen to appear the as
sembled multitude would probably
hear some strong talk from him. He
