We leave our readers to accept the lat
ter case for what they consider it worth.
The Supreme Court OF the United States
have interpreted the laws to be, as will
be seen by the first two cases cited, that
a party can enforce the specific perform
ance OF a gold clause contract, and that
where gold is called for, gold or it's
equivalent, must be paid. That is the
supreme law OF the land and no state
a pass a law averse to it.
Mr.. Kelley accuses the Republicans OF
practicing deception. 1t will be seen at
once that the Republicans have taken
the proper view OF the case and that the
mortgages and banks calling for gold or
it's equivalent can be enforced, and they
will be surely enforced il free silver car
ries, for those clauses have been inserted
for fear that the country might depreciate
the standard OF values.
Mr.. Kelley takes that way to induce
debtors to support the free silver craze.
1t seems he was afraid that the Republic
cans had demonstrated the debtor
couldn't pay OF his debts with a depre
ciated dollar, thereby repudiating the
debt to the extent of at least forty cents
ON the dollar. Mr.. Kelley has attempted
to deceive that class by telling them that
il free coinage won't raise silver to $1.29
an ounce, SO much the better. 1t will
allow them to pay off their debts that
much easier, because they viii d them
in a cheaper dollar. Mr.. Kelley's decep-
ton OF that proposition demonstrates
that he believes there aremany American
citizens dishonest enough to take adyan-
tage OF the present circumstances. lisa
Islander upon the honesty OF the American
people, and Kelley has attempted to
allure a certain class to vote for some
thing against their interest, by deceiving
them. We hope Mr. Kelley viii be honest
enough to acknowledged his error on that
proposition and clear up the minds OF his
readers. Whatever we 10. Mr.. Kelley,
let us be fair with our readers in this
campaign. There are many who are
searching alter the truth before they are
prepared to vote. Ii the American people
can only get the facts they are perfectly
able 10 draw their own conclusions and
if the facts concerning these great qnes-
tons OF tariff and money are properly
placed before the voters we need not fear
Tor the result.-Sonth Dakota Sentinel.

What About the Gold
Clause i'm South Oak?

Gold bugs are trying to club farmers
with gold clause mortgages into voting
FOR VIM. Mckinley.
We copy below a law passed in 81,
which ought to satisfy voters OF the de-
ception being practiced upon them.-
Day County Herald.
Kelley then follows with the law which
we do not deny is on u statute books.
1t is, however, of no force and effect
and is absolutely "a dead letter, for the
following reason The highest author
ity in the United States is the Constitu-
ton OF the Nation, next comes the laws
OF the United States, and the next in
lastly the state laws. A law passed by
the Legislature OF South Dakota which is
in opposition to the federal laws is there
fore null and void and of no effect what
ever. Therefore, ii the act which Mr..
Kelley cites is at variance with the fede-
, raj constitution and laws, it is void.
The law 10 which Mr.. Kelley refers
states that it shall be unlawful for any
contract to specify any special kind OF
money to be paid. This was passed in
1891, but since that date nearly every
mortgage and bond is made payable in
gold or its equivalent. This at once
shows that business men aud municipall-
ties upon the advice OF their attorneys
believe the law prohibiting such a con-
tract OF no effect.
here is what the United States supreme
court says on that proposition
A bond aud mortgage for the payment
OF a certain sum in gold aud silver coin
cannot be discharged by e tender oi
United States notes equal iii nominal
amount tt sum due tllereon-Bronson
VS.. kempton, 8 Wall, IA, - 439.
Upon Il bond and mortgage payable in
in gold coin OF the United States the
plaintiff is entitled to recoyer in lawful
money, to be calculated according To tiie
market rate OF premium for gold.-Dut-
ton VS.. Palairet, 10 LOO.
Besides these two eases there are Others
oil a similar nature, among which was a
decision OF mucIl Importance decided ut
the time OF deprecated g~reenbacks. The
substance OF this case is that an eastern
firm sent some promissory notes 70 n
bank in Michigan Tor collection. The
! notes were ordered collected and the
money placed on deposit in the bank.
The bank received payment for the notes
in currency that was deprecated ten per
cent. aud afterwards the bank rendered
to the New York firm theamount collect
ed, or in other words the same number
OF dollars reckoned by gold at ten per
cent. discount, but at that time the same
kind OF currency had deprecated fifty per
cent. and the eastern firm refused TO be
paid dollarior dollar OF the deposit. The
matter was adjusted in the courts aud
decision OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States was that since the cur
rency had deprecated forty per cent.
since the bank had received the money,
I the obligation could not be discharged
unless the bank made up the difference in
value when received and when paid to
the eastern firm, The bank was there
fore compelled to paySi59 where it had
| received Sl10.

SHOCKING SUICIDE.
Miss Alma Anthony Blows the Top OF
Her Head Off With a
Shotgun.

A shocking suicide occurred at thu
beautiful country home of Mrs. William
Anthony, at Robertsville, about O'Clock
Monday morning.
Miss Alma Anthony arose at the usua
hour and seemed in fairly good spirits
Her mother and brother left the house
few moments after breakfast and hat
gone but short distance when tn ey
heard a gunshot at the house. The boy
went back to see what was the matter
when he found his sister lying across th'
bed with the still smoking shotgun
tightly grasped in her hands, and the en-
tire top of her head, from the eyes up
splattered all over the walls and floor.
The cause of the suicide IS probably du,
to the fact that about eight years ago Mis-
Anthony WAS engaged to be married, bu
on the wedding day the expected groom
disappeared and was never seen after
wards. She never got over it. This, will
the fact that her father was killed in |
frightful manner about year ago
worked on her mind and caused her to d.
the deed
