siIverites Should Drop Jefferson

1t is vain to invoke the authority of
Jefferson for the coinage of 50-cent dol
lars or any other debasement of the
currency. Our "neo-democratic" friends,
if they wish to vindicate their claim to
the title of 'old line democrats" who
have jefferson for their father, will
have to abandon their idea of free coin
age at the ration of sixteen to one, or
any other arbitrary rate, but if they
will have double standard, make it
thirty-two TO one, in order to be honest
in the payment of debts and to conform
to the actual ratio in the value of the
two metals in the markets of the world,
it being, as Mr., Jefferson says, "a mer-
camille problem altogether."-Balti-
more Sun.

Our Monetary Disease.

To safely and permanently maintain
the gold standard requires the remod-
cling of our finances. The disease is the
character of the money in the treasury
and in the pockets of the people. 1t is
in barking system which congests cur
rency in commercial centers, while ere
ating a dearth in country districts,
which issues currency which cannot
expand when it ought to and can when
there is no necessity. 1t is in compel
ling the maintenance of S10O,00O,0 900
gold reserve to float a vast volume of
paper money by the government, which
cannot regulate its issues to meet the
needs of commerce.
The disease cannot be cured by any
maleshift.--Senator Donelson Caffery.

THE DRIFT TOWARD GOLD.
silver Nations Are Gradually Coming
to the Gold Standard.

silver Nations Are Gradually Coming
to the Gold standard.
While Mr.. Bryan and his associates,
refusing to accept the verdict of last
November, are looking forward hope
fully to renewing what they call tho
"battle for silver" at the next congress
sional elections; while bimetallic
commission has Just been appointed TO
visit the European governments in the
interest of international binetallism,
there may be perceived all over the
world an unmistakable drift toward the
single standard Of gold Since the APP
pointment of the United States COM
missioners the dispatches from Europe
indicate that their mission will be fruit-
less, and that there is no more probabili-
ty of those governments returning to
bimetallsm than there is of their re-
armies. The latest announcement is
from Russia, which is to the effect that
she Is irrcvocably committed to the gold
standard.
But 1t Is not in Europe alone that.
this tendency Is observable. Tho wis.,
dom and apparent case with which the
japanese government has planned the
adoption of the gold standard Is one OF
the marvels of modern statesmanship
and marks the people rs among the.
most sagacious nations of the earth.
Laggard China also seems to be awak-
ing from her silver dream OF isolation
and is anxious to have the customs du-
ties at the treaty ports placed on tho
gold basis, as they substantially were
when the treaties were made. The de-
probation of silver has greatly crippled
her revenues, and now that she is COM
ing into closer financial connection with
Russia IL may be assumed that her
finances will be conformed 10 the gold
standard.
If we turn from the far orient to our
own hemisphere, we win perceive o
stirring in the Central and South Amer
lean states to reform their monetary
system and escape the losses entailed
by an inferior and deprecated currency.
A dispatch few days since from Lima
informed us that Peru had not only sus-
pended silver coinage but had passed q
law against tho Importation of silver.
NOlumDla ndS uuopE0 tnc Bolu stdno-
ard, while Chilli, Uruguay and Brazil
make gold unlimited legal tender and
silver in but limited sums. In Hon
duras, San Salvador, Costa Rica and
Santo Domingo the gold standard has
been established by law, though de-
preciated paper currency prevents tho
circulation of gold at present. These
movements go to show that those ma
tions who are in touch with European
trade and commerce feel the necessity
of having the same monetary system
and that their people are at disadvan-
tage because of their fuctuating and
deprecated home currencies.
And yet while these nations, admit
tedly our interiors In wealth and In
physical and intellectual progress, are
struggling out of the bonds that hold
them back there are those among us
who would imperil our vast wealth and
commerce by plunging us down to the
silver standard. What must the nations
of the world think of such leadership
and statesmanshipP-Chicago Times

ONE OF GRANTS VICTORIES.
Was Won in a Time OF Peace--vetood
an Imitation Bill,

an Inhntion Bill.
One of Gen. Grants greatest victories
was not won in war, but in times of
profound peace. On April 2s, 1874, he
vetoed an imitation bill which hadpassed
both houses of congress by decided ma
iorities, and back of which were many
eminent republican politicians who
imagined that they saw sure defeat
ahead for their party unless they made
concessions to those clamoring for
"more money" The pressure for the
bill was not all political. Many timid
business men urged the president to
sign the bill in order to "stopagitation."
In this trying situation President Grant
showed patriotism wholly above parti-
sanship, and n clear conception of sound
financial principles, unobscured by
lshort-sighted notions of Immediate
business eXpedency.
He vetoed the bill because in theory
it would produce imitation. "The the
ory," he declared, Gin my belief is de-
,parture from the true principles of
finance, national interest, nAtional obli-
cations to creditors, congressional
promise, party pledges on the part of
both political parties and of personal
views and promises made by me in
every annual message sent to congress
and in each inaugural address"
So far from being n settlement"
the bill invited agitation. "Should it
fail to create the abundance of circula-
tion expected of it, the friends of the
measure, particularly those out of con-
gress, would clamor for such initiation
as would give the expected relief" And
he defined his general principle in these
pregnant words: 81 am not believer in
any artificial method of making pa
per money equal to coin when the coin
is not owned or held ready to redeem
the promise to pay, for paper money is
nothing more than promise to pay, and
is valuable exactly in proportion to the
amount of coin that it can be converted
into"
The monetary battles of this country
are not yet all fought. Grants words
and acts should inspire those engaged

SHOT AND KILLED.
An UnknoWn PeddkeF Meets
a Sudden Death Near
Grand Junction,

One evening last week peddler,
! name unknown, went to the resi-
dence of Capt. Sam Clark, who lives
two and one-half miles northeast of
Grand Junction, and asked for some
thing to eat. He was told that sup
per would be served in a short time,
and that if he would wait, he would
be accommodated. He waited,
and his appetite was satisfied. AT
ter supper Capt. Clark and two of his
nephews, which comprises his house
hold, informed the peddler, who
showed disposition to remain, that
they had engagements to attend an
entertainment in the neighborhood,
and that during their absence the
house would be closed. The ped
dler finally left, but it seems that he
followed Capt. Clark and his neph-
ews to the entertainment. When
Capt. Clark and his nephews re-
turned, it was perhaps II o'clock in
the evening. One of his nephews,
a young man about 25 years of age,
Daft Clark, went to the stable to put
up the horses that they had ridden.
On returning to the house, he was
by some one carrying a !
heavy stick. The night was dark,
and it was impossible to recognize
any person. The young man asked
repeatedly who it was approaching,
but received no response. The party |
continued to advance rapidly, and,
Duff Clark, fearing bodily harm,
in order to protect himself, fired his
pistol at the unknown foe. The
man fell. Investigation proved that
he was the peddler, who had been
previously entertained at supper.
He was taken to the Clark residence, |
physicians summoned, and every
thing possible was done for his re-
lief, but the wound was fatal, and
he died the next day. Lis remains
were buried in the cemetery at Grand
Junction by Capt. Clark.
Young Duff Clark, who did the
shooting, Is completely Frustrated
over the sad affair.
