Senator EIkins On Silver. :

Senator Stephen B. Elkins has
for sixteen years been producer OF
silver and is at the present time.
Very naturally he is DESTROYS that
silver shall not depreciate in value,
but the distinguished West Virgin
ian appreciates the folly of free
coinage and, IN an interview re-
ported in the New York Tribune,
says:
europe now has about 81 ,000,-
600, 900 not in use, and has been
waiting for years to see whether
we would not adopt free coinage,
so that it could bring this silver to
the United States and have 1t made
into legal tender dollars and give
it twice the value it now has. You
readily see that this would enable
the owners of silver IN Europe not
only to get rid of the silver,
but do so at twice its value, Once
rid of this vast surplus of 81 ,000,-
600, 900, the silver question would
not trouble Europe any more
Their people would be rid Of it OF
good terms, and at the expense o
the United States. | personally
know miners of silver in Mexico
who are waiting for us to pass
free coinage law, so that the.
can unload their silver on us at S
announce, which is costing them onl
81 cents to produce.
"The Democratic party havln.
failed in its free trade theories, nov
turns to free silver, hoping to wi
the favor of the people by it; bu
free silver is a worse deluSion tina
free trade. One thing is true, an
has remained true through all his
tory-prices and values are mad

pointed to Sidney Randolph,a negro
who was found near Gaithersburg
unable to give satisfactory account
of himself. 1t was supposed he had
been instigated to the deed by cam
panion named Neale, just released
from the penitentiary, whittier ne
had been sent chiefly through testl-
mony given by Mr.. Buxton, whose
life he had threatened.
Neale, however, could not be con-
nected with the crime and was re-
leased while Randolph was COM

oncr's jury having found that Sadie
Buxton came to her death from
wounds inflicted by an axe in Ran

unknown was accessory to the deed

l.. Money as standard of value
Is an International, and not local
or merely national, factor.
2. Cheap money will always
drive good money out of circulation,
and thus contract the currency.
3. A fixed standard is required
to measure value.
4. Gold money is of automatic
issue. No one determines the limit
of issue.
5. Fiat money is simply forced
loan. 1t is government money, and
its value alone determined by the
proportion of its volume to the
credit of the issuing government.
6. The words "cheap" and
"dear'' mean nothing without
standard of comparison.
Z. Panics are caused by the over
NaiuaUlon OF property and cOmmO-
dities and by general extravaganza,
and not by the so called variations
in supply of money. In 1898 and
1894 money was more plentiful
than eyer before. In 1873 the net
deposits in our national banks were
1913, 100000 in 1894 they were
$2,919, 100000. The deposits IN
the savings institutions of the coun-
try in 1873 were 81, 1924, $50, 787;
in 1894 they were about 1000, O0O,-

Who Would Get The Benefit?

If a 16 to l free coinage measure
were to become law next year, who
would 1t benefit the most? Ger
it might increase the number of
dollars they received in return for
their labor or their products, these
dollars would be worth but half as
much as those now in use. Neither
would the manufacturers and bust.
ness men be benefited by a law
which would make goods of all
kinds far dearer and therefore
lessen the demand for them and
check productive industry and
trade.
The real benefciares of free sill
yer would be the owners of silver
mines, who would get a higher
price for their products and the
debtors who would be enablad to
pay off their obligations in so cent
dollars. Among those debtors
would be some farmers, but by far
the greater part of the debts of the
country is owed by large firms,
corporations, banks, insurance com
panies and similar organizations.
Thus the farmer, who has many
years been paying premiums on
81 900 lire insurance on his house
and barns would under free coinage
receive in case of loss by fire only
the equivalent of $500 in our present
currency. The workingman who
has been paying for $1,000 life in
surance, would find that the adop-
ton of the silver standard had cut
In two the provision he had been
making for his wife and family.
The millions of farmers and
workers who have little money
in the bank would be compelled If
the banks wished, to take dollars
worth half of those they had deposi-
ted. The great corporations which
have borrowed large amounts
from thousands of small investors.
or from banks representing thou
sands of depositors would. have half
of their debts wiped out.
These results would doubtless be
4 good thing for the big insurance
railway corporations,
banks, Wall street spectators. etc.
But is that any reason why the
masses should favor the so cent
Iollar policy?

Gov. Lowndes on Lynching.

Governor Lowndes yesterday
spoke of the lynching of Sydney
Randolph at Rockville, on Saturday
morning, as a great outrage. Ran
dolph was most brutally treated and
at the same time his guilt was far
from established. A number of
detectives who had been working
on the case believed that he was
innocent and that a white man was
guilty.
Governor Lowpdes said that the
State was trying to induce lmml-
grafton by spending large sums OF
money IN establishing an lmmigra-
ton bureau and by other means
encouraging the best class Of for
eigners to populate our State. But
people will not risk their lives by
settling in state where laws are
violated and oyerridden with i'm
punity.
The authorities in the two coun'
ties should take steps to have the
violators punished; if they don't
the Governor will see what he can
do in the matter. He is now con
sidering the ACCESSIBILITY of offering
a reward for the apprehension o.
