Strangely enough this gold unit,

much, is not now coined at all. The
first gold dollar was coined in 1S49
and the last one in 1889, the total
number being in the forty years OF
coinage only 19,499,337, or scarcely one
to every four inhabitants. When
these are finally worn out or lOst-as

SOUND SENSE.

SOOND SENOE.
A reader of Hearst's Chicago Ex-
aminer recently wrote the editor of
that paper the following letter, which
was printed with other communica-
ticls, and which sums up in very
few words the populist position on
money. Nj. Herrick sees clearly that
the only real redemption is when the
power that issued coined money re-
,eives it back in payment OF dues to
that government. He says:
"To the Editor: Your editorial on
the subject of the power of issuing
money hits the greatest danger that
threatens the people, The power to
issue money and fix its value is the
supremest of all monopolies, and the
trainers of the constitution, recognize
ing it's danger, granted to congress
alone the right and duty and power
to do so. They never contemplated
such thing as the coming or issuing
of money by any private individual
or corporation, nor even by state OF
the Union. Congress clearly has no
legal authority to delegate power
especially granted to it and to no
other body. Why don't the people cry
out against this imminent danger be-
fore they become bond servants OF
some Rockefeller?
"On what better security could mon
ey be issued than the power possessed
by congress to tax the people and thus
lay the whole country under contribu-
ton. if it should be necessary to use
such power? The necessity for spe-
cific ownership of assets for redemp-
ton purposes is not apparent Pro-
vided the government accepts it's own
money, and no other, for all dues. all
questions of redemption will settle
themselves. Let the people in time
| beware of the imminent danger OF
private banking corporations under
the misleading name OF national
banks. J. HERRICK.
