and rum and tobacco from Costa RIGA.
The Guatemalan rebels have possession
of the seaports, hence the necessity of
smuggling these much needed articles
to the beleaguered governor. Jones re-
turned to Guatemala after the EXPOSE
ton and was accompanied by young
Georgia man named Jordan, who
wished to go into the coffee-planting
business in Costa RIGA. When Jones
and Jordan landed in Guatemala they
had quantity of rifles with them. some
packed in bale of hay. When the
hay was thrown upon the wharf the.
bands burst and the rifles tumbIed out.
Jones and Jordan were forthwith

Jones, however, proceeded to the head
quarters of his friend, the governor,
and has just been appointed colonel OF
regiment in the army. This is the
latest chapter of life that reads like
romance. News of it was received
the other day by the father Of Jones
Jones is also suing the government for
81, 500 for false Imprisonment, and
writes that he. has more than fair
chance to win his suit. The accom-
panying picture of Jones shows a much

barely out Of his teens. but has culti-

venturous character. His father, Mr..

relation to his adventurous boy is
much like that of a hen to the duck

mas duck, who insists on swimming
In stormy waters instead of scratching
peacefully for juicy prizes in the bust
ness world. The boy has always sought
the stormy element, and therein
thrived. AS a boy he ran away from
school at various times, and finally
went West, where he worked as a tele-
graph lineman. Growing tired Of this
work, he became a cowboy and led the
rough life of frontiersman. He was
then only seventeen years old. He
joined an Atlanta military company.
and also became student at Meals

army. During the campaign his COM

his prospects were rather gloomy. But
Providence seems to favor the daring
and just twelve hours before the date
of his execution Jones ESCAPED under
the most thrilling circumstances. An
old water carrier on donkey was ad-
mitted to the prison yard to sell water
to the prisoners, and Jones waylaid
him in a dark corner, knocked him
over, and, attiring himself in the car
rier's clothing, managed to ride out of
the yard undecided. A price was Of

and escaped to Costa RIGA. He will
hardly go back to Colombia again. as
there are various natives hanging
around looking. for him, with the ex-
pectation of living at ease on the re-
ward the government will pay for his
capture.
In Costa RIGA he obtained a posi-
ton as civil engineer under the gov

aged to make the acquaintance of the
governor of Guatemala just when re-
bellion was brewing in that country.
He came to Atlanta, Ca, during the
exposition, and was ostensibly interest

the same time he was executing a COM

mala. He engaged to smuggle rifles

almost its exclusive significance, from
the relation of debtor and creditor.
The project for destroying silver as
standard money was inaugurated by
the creditor class, that is the holders of
long time, interest bearing money OBJ
legations, national, municipal and cor
porate, and it is in their interest and
by their efforts that the plot has been
developed and is now being urged to
final contamination. 1t is only neces-
sary to consider the $40, 900, 900, 600 of
such Indebtedness which have shown
to have been contracted on q bimetallic
basis to understand the stupendous
magnitude of the scheme for doubling
the purchasing power of the money de-
nominations in which such obligations
are made payable. It's success must
result in general confiscation of the
property of debtors and impose upon
industry tribute fatal to its indie
pendence for an indefinite period in the
future. In justification of this scheme
of spoilation nothing has been, or with
| any pretense of justice can be urged
except that the debtors had contracted
to pay under single standard of gold
| and were therefore morally bound to
submit to the consequence, however
disastrous, of this agreement. My pur-
pose has been to expose the falsehood
OF this assumption. Some debtors have
agreed to pay in gold, but no debtor in
the United States has agreed to pay I'M
der gold standard. No principle of
honesty or honor binds any such debt
or to advocate or accept a gold stand
ard or to refrain from opposing with all
his energy and influence it's esta blish-
ment. The charge of reputation so
persistently reiterated by the organs of
plutocracy against debtors seeking the
| restoration of silver is baseless cal
| jimmy. Reputation can only consist
IN refusal to perform that which one
| has agreed to perform. 1 challenge
any enc of the slanderers making this
| accusation to specify any existing debt
from citizen of the United States
which by virtue of the terms, or the
time, or the surroundings of it's crea-
ton requires, either in law or by any
refinement of ethics, that it should be
discharged under single standard of
gold. There is no such indebtedness
This talk about the equity of securities
and the implied obligation of debtors
is hypocritical cant. Let every debtor
do just what he has agreed to do. If
he has agreed to pay in gold, then let
him pay in gold. If he has made any
private agreement in respect to money
standard, let him stand by the agree
ment, but in the absence of any such
contract let him understand that in
law and conscience and honor he is free
to resist, by every effort open to an
American citizen, the infamous scheme
ofrobbery which, by change of money
standard, is to double the burden of
his obligation.-C. j. Hillyer. in Silver

A Unit of Value.

In establishing standard for the
measurement of liquids the United
States adopted the gallon" which
contains a certain number of cubic
inches or pounds of distilled water at
given temperature and atmospheric
pressure. This always measures the
same. The standard 'sbushel" and
pound avordupoise" were established
In like manner and cannot vary. The
''meter," the unit of measurement of
distance in the metrical system, is
equivalent to one ten-millionth part of
the distance on the earth from the
equator to the North pole as ascertain
ed by the actual measurement of an
arc OF meridian and is not suscepti-
bic to change. But the standard unit
OF value which should be the most ac-
curate, if possible, of any, as it is the
most frequently and universally called
into requisition in the measure of val
ues in the exchange of commodities in
commerce, is the gold or silver dollar
of a certain number of grains weight
respectively, and a certain degree of
purity or fineness And these do not
vary in these respects. But let it be
observed that they are not intended to
be employed as standard of weight
but of value, which bears no certain
and permanent relation to their weight
but is subject to very significant, but
not easily designated, fluctuations,
making the unit in it's employment IN
facilitating the exchange of values
similar to what a bushel measure
would be if employed to measure the
farmers grain and should hold at one
time four pecks, at another five, at
another perhaps three, &c. Now if to
have an alleged unit of value that is
simply coin of a certain weight, and
which has no permanently definite
value, nor a fixed relation to any thing
possessing this quality, is for this
reason Objectionable, then a unit of
value which would always measure
about the same value, or have a rela-
ton to something that is permanent
and stable would be desirable, and its
employment would be attended with
less perplexity and greater fairness
than that IN present use.
But how could such a system be de-
vised and made practicable? Let us
look at some of the conditions and
facts to be met with view to attain
ing such an end. Nearly all material
wealth as it exists in our nation is
produced by days of labor of charac-
ter, the method of the performance of
which is readily suggested to any per-
son of ordinary intelligence. OF course
professional occupations and the pur-
suits of skilled workmen have their
places, but labor of the character boye
alluded to is the great source and re-
source of the country's wealth. And
further In pursuit of this line of
thought, writer in one of our leading
scientific journals made the assertion
few years since, and it cannot be de-
MED, that labor is the one thing that
is purchased and sold TO greater ex-
tent than any other" But individuals
lives are made up of about an average
number of years, or otherwise of days,
which is nearly the same from genera
ton to generation, so there is about an
average number of days when they are
able-bodisd and CAPABLE Of performinR
