The Cause of Free Silver.

But il the quantity could be restricted
or cornered. mankind would part with
their liberties, If necessary, to secure
modicum Of it to sustain life.
But who would claim that the length
of a yard stick would become greater
or less il there were only n In ex-
istence to measure the broad expanse
OF the universe and all therein con-
tanned? Or would il be contended that
the length of the yard stick would
change if their quantity was so multi
piled that the earth would be covered
with them?
Would the weight of the pound
weight be more or less If there were
but one of them in existence, or would
the specific gravity of each change with
their multiplication? Would the
weight Of either be made greater or less
il the quantity of them should be so
multiplied that the earth would be
literally covered with them? EVIDENT
~ not.
The argument, therefore, is conclu-
sive that while a standard of length
and weight can be made permanent so
that they will remain the same to-day,
tomorrow, and forever. hat a stand
ard of value cannot be made at all, that
the ratio of value between any two
things can exist only momentarily.
that the relation between the two
things necessary TO in any case ex-
press value is subject to the demand
and supply of each and that any in
crease or decrease in the supply or de-
mand of either article cause a CORE
spending change in the relation they
bear TO each other in exchange, or, in
other words, their value.
Upon this subject much confusion ex.
lists in the minds of the people which
readily disappears as soon as the sub
ject is critically examined. The gold
dollar is accepted as a measure OF value
by many as unquestioningly as the law
Of gravitation or any other law of ma
ture. The term measure of value" is
unscientific and misleading. The dol.
lar is the unit of money of the United
States. 1t is the unit OF price, of credit
and liability. Prices are reckoned in
terms of dollars, but vary with The
supply of commodities or the supply
of dollars. Debts are made payable il
dollars. calling for a specific number
of them. The dollars, however, may bs
obtained with greater ease or difficulty
at the time of payment than at thu
time of the contract.-National Watch

HAVE ACHIEVED a VICTORY.
The Dispute. However. is by No
Mems settled.

indianapolis. Ind, Oct. 9.-W. II.
Wilson, secretary-trcasurer OF the
United Mine Workers of america. has
issued 4 statement in which he says
in part:
..All OF the coal operators having
low conceded an advance in wages. u
can be truthfully said that the min
ers of the anthracite region have
achieved a great victory. lct the dis
putc is not settled. nor will il be,
even though the miners accept the
proposition of the operators and re-
turn to work. The sliding scale. dock
agc. scmi-monthly pay and other
grievances complained Of by the min
crs have not been considered in the
proposition Of the operators. and the
advance in wages is SO complicated
that many Of the miners do not un'
dcrstand il. Uadcr these circum'
stances the surcst and best method OF
securing a settlement and establish
ing permanent peace. would como
from a meeting of the operators with
the anthracite miners when they
meet to consider the offer Of the Goa
companies.
''Thc anthracite coal field is divided
by its mountain ranges into three dis
tinct regions. each having geological
conditions peculiar TO itself. thus re-
quiring different systems Of working
and different methods and employ
ment.
''The only method by which salts
factory explanations can be made il
for the operators to meet the miner'
when n convention Is held TO considcl
the offer of the operators"

The Disorder at the S. p. Passenger DE.
pot Must Cease.
Eugene Johns, aged about 12 years,
was arrested this morning on complaint
OF the night operator at the s. p. passen-
ger depot, on a charge of violating ordi-
nance No. 1853, which forbids climbing
on and off railroad trains There has
been much complaint of the actions Of
number of youngsters who make prac-
tice of collecting at the depot and con-
ducting themselves in very disorderly
manner. They jump on and off the NOV
ing trains, and the railroad men are
kept in a state Of nervous tension in ex-
pectation Of the serious accident which
would inevitably result were these prac-
tices allowed TO continue. Passengers
waiting for the train are excessively
annoyed by the proiane and often inde-
cent language and actions of the crowd
of boys.
The matter has now come to point
where the city authorities propose tC
take a hand and put ctop To these
practices, and the boys will be obliged
TO keep within the bounds Of order ant
decency.
City Recorder Judah took the case o
of young Johns under advisement unit
10 a. m. Saturday and in the mean tim,
will communicate with the boys father
Henry Johns, who lives about two miles
south Of town, with view to consigninI
the boy to the reform school.
