AS We SO to press we learn that
there is probability of a stock
company, composed of home peo-
pie being organized, for the pur-
pose, of purchasing the old saw
mill plant of the Hanson Lumber
Company. We hope the company
will be formed. and the deal made.
What Franklin needs at present
is more manufacturing enterpri-
ses. There is no better site than
here for a barrel and stave fac
tory, foundry and a rice mill.
Ali of these enterprises would be
paying investments from the
start. Let US try and get them.

Why Silver is Coined.

A reader Of The CO8Qnponer asks by
what law silver Is coined since the re-
peal of the Sherman law. The row.
eminent is now coming (has almost
iinished) the seigniorage that accumu
lated under the Sherman law. The
Sherman law provided that silver
should be bought at the market price
and certificates issued therefor. The
difference between the market price
and the coinage price was called
seigniorage and was held as silver
bullion. The Sherman law also pro-
vided that so much OF the purchased
silver should be coined as was neces-
sary to redeem certificates presented.
The act of 1898 required the coinage
OF the seigniorage and also the coin
age of the silver held for the redemp-
ton of the Sherman certificates.
When this silver is coined coinage will
cease, as there is now no provision for
the purchase Of further silvery except
for subsidiary coinage. A bill passed
the lower House of the last Congress
authorizing the recoinage Of silver
dollars into subsidiary coin. If this
bill ever becomes Il law it will make it
unnecessary for the government to buy
silver for a century to come, and at
the same time the volume of standard
money will be reduced to the extent
that the silver dollars are recoined
into fractional currency.

Senator Quay declares that the tariff
should not be REVISED during a period
OF prosperity; and the Philadelphia
Record directs attention to these facts:
''ln 1894 the Republicans said it was q
terrible mistake to touch the tariff be-
cause business was SO depressed. On
the other hand, they changed the tariff
in 1890, when the country was very
prosperous. There is no time when
the Republicans think the tariff ought
to be reduced and they think any time
is a good one for raising duties if the
people will stand il. When they talk
about the condition of business they
are throwing dust in the peoples eyes,
