the remaining weapon to DR.. Carr, the
superintendent of the United States arsenal
at Baltimore. DR.. Carr acted as second to
Thomas F. Marshall, of Versailles. the
Kentucky orator and statesman, in his
duel with James Watson Webb, editor of
the New York Courier and Enquirer, in
which Webb was crippled for life. Dr.
Carr then gave the Burr pistol to Mr.. Mar
shall. who subsequently, presented it to
his brother. Captain Edward c. Marshall.
The latter carried it through the Mexican
war. 1t was stolen from him by his body
servant, but through a miracle was located
in the City Of Mexico and recovered by one
Of his soldiers. Captain Marshall before
his death gave the pistol to his son, Louis
Marshall.
Thomas F. Marshall, while it was In his
possession. had the dueling pistol altered
from flint to a percussion lock. It still
shoots, very accurately and carries two
ounce ball. Its barrel. which Is twelve
inches long. looks more like a section of a
shotgun than anything else. while the han
die is marked twice with the "X' sign.
which meant in the palmy days of dueling
that the weapon had done fatal work.

Tree Planting.

The leaves will soon fall. After they
have done SO, go through the forest and
along fence-rows and select good, healthy,
low-heading trees for transplanting.
AS to species. the best is white or bitter
elm-sometimes called water elm. Next
comes ped elm. then ash. linden. sugar
tree or hard maple, etc.
Avoid soft or white maple. 1t is not
only usually useless but is a positive nui-
sance.
Select your trees of diameters ranging
from three to eight inches-Iarger If you
choose.
First. top dress by cutting of branches
and pruning literally.
Second, dig under to proper depth be-
low the crown and cut a block or section
out Of the tap root and all large lateral
roots. By removing sections, the roots
will not unite again.
Third, replace all uplifted soils and
tamp thoroughly.
Fourth, leave the tree in its forest bed
for at least one year. This will allow
all scars to thoroughly heal.
Fifth transplant in the spot selected, but
be sure and set the same side of the tree
to the north that was towards that point
in the forest.

Government Not Behind II.

To the Editor of the Journal.
A fact not generally understood BY the
people, and ignored by the free silver agi-
tators, is that under free coinage law
the government does not guarantee In any
manner the money value OF the bullion
coined by It for owners The government
stamp on the coin signifies only that It
contains so many grains of metal. and It
is no less commodity after coinage than
1t was in the form of bullion. The free
coinage is merely putting 1t In convenient
shape for handling. or for transfer from
one to another. This is true alike or gold
and silver in the operation of free coinage
laws They may, as legal tenders, have
debt-paying power Of 100 cents to the dol
lar: but no legislation can give them q
purchasing power greater tnan the market
or commercial value of the bullion they
contain, they being the money or ultimate
redemption and their market value being
regulated solely by the oft-quoted law of
supply and demand.
The coinage and market ratios OF the Two
principal money metals OF to-day vary
widely, and no evidence has yet been OF
fered by any free coinage advocate, tnat
an equality of coinage and market ratios
will result from the operation OF the pro-
posed free coinage law: or, were these
ratios equal at the time such law be-
comes effective. that they would long re-
main so. On the contrary, history SHOWS
that there never was actual bimetallism In
any country of the world for length of
time sufficient to serve as an argument
that such condition could now be brought
about, even by the concurrence OF nations.
to say nothing of an attempt by this coun-
| try to do so, without the aid or consent OF
any other nation" By actual bimetaliism
| is meant a permanent condition Of none
| tary affairs in which there would be free
| and unlimited exchange Of one metal for
the other at fixed ratio. and In which
| the holder of obligations to pay money
| would have no preference for the one kind
of coin over the other, in payment Of the
same.
1t seems to clearly appear from the facts

To the Editor of the Journal.
Mr.. Champ Clark and the Popocrats
teach that Thomas Jefferson was the orig
inal is to l man, and that he believed that
government could fix arbitrarily the ratio
of the values of the precious metals.
The real words of Mr.. Jefferson dispute
this contention of Mr.. Clark and show that
Mr.. Jefferson even doubted the capacity Of
the people in general to settle all the nice
intricacies of the money question.
In his Notes on the Establishment of a
Monetary Unit Act" he says: 1.-The bulk
of mankind are school boys through life.
These little perplexities are always great
to them" page 14)
After making this sling at the hoboes and
Populistic statesmen of his day, he says:
I'VE should examine quantity of pure
metal in each (coin) and from them form
an average for our unit. This is a work
proper to be committed to mathematicians,
as we'll as merchants, and which should be
decided on actual and accurate expert
ment." page 1879
So firmly did he believe that the ratio
Of the values of the precious metals was
a mercantile question to be settled by
business men, that he reiterated the state
ment on page 140. and, on page 13S. he
writes at some length as follows: 'The
proportion between the value Of gold and
silver is a mercantile problem altogether.
1t would be inaccurate to fix 1t by the
popular exchanges. The legal
proportion in Spain is 16 to 1: in England.
1512 to 1: in France Is to 1. The Spaniards
and English are found in experience to re-
tain an overproduction of gold coins, and
to lose their silver. The French have a
greater proportion of silver. -. Just
principles will lead us to disregard legal
q. e., statutory ratios of other nations, to
inquire into the market price of gold In
the several countries, with which we shall
principally be connected in commerce, and
to take an average from them.
perhaps we might, with safety. lean to
a proportion somewhat above par for gold
considering our neighborhood and com.
merce. with the sources of the coins, and
the tendency which the high price of gold In
Spain has, to draw thither all that OF their
mines, leaving silver principally for ou1
markets. My statements as to the ratio
as Is to is conjectural only" page 1sS:)
He even dec'ores a preference for gold
81 would still incline to give little more
than the market price for gold, because
of it's superior convenience IN transporta'
ton" page 140.) RALPH INGALLS,.

Cartridges Are Costly.

From Harpers Round Table.
General W. F. Molyneux. fighter in the
Transvaal, tells about going to the house
of a Boer upon the latter's invitation to
become his guest on deer hunt. The
general arrived on HORSEBACK accompanied
by one servant. Dismounting. he carried
into the house a bag containing what
would measure a peck or SO of common
cartridges. The Boer loked at the bag in
establishment and exclaimed:
You Engiishmen must be very rich.
Cartridges cost sixpence each here"
Rather mystified. and declaring that there
are no poor Englishmen. General Molyneux
asked: where are your cartridges?"

By compelling a railway to operate its
trains. even at a loss, the workingmen are
enabled to ride to and fro from their homes
and places of business. BY compelling the
corporations to erect stations. the law ex-
presses its solicitude for the comfort of the
workmen. 1t will be observed from these
cases that the railways are never permit
ted to strike. be their grievances never so
great, or their fares-their wages-never so
inequtable. By the remedy of mandamus
the humblest workman might compel the
| great and powerful New York Central cor
| poration to abstain from striking-even
when crippled by a strike of its employees
and to operate its trains. regardless of ex-
pense or the amount of fares, for the ben-
| eft OF the workman. his family and his fell
| low workmen. So the extraordinary reme-
| dies which the law provides are mutually
and equally effective to either railways or
| to their employees. Either remedy can be
invoked, for due cause, with decisive ef-
| feet. And the remedy by mandamus-al-
| ways available to the employees against the
| railways-can be operated with much more
| disastrous effect by the employe against
the railway than the remedy by injunction
| can be operated by the railways against
| the employees. For the injunction merely
| compels men to continue in the railway
| service, and earn their wages, whereas a
| mandamus may compel a railway to oper-
| ate a train, or to erect depot, or perform
| other duties for the benefit OF the employees
| at a ruinous cost.
Now as to the counter operative effect OF
| nandamus and injunction. An injunction
| merely stays threatened action that may
| produce irreparable injury, but does moi
decide anything. merely leaving the matter
in statu quo. But in order to procure q
