USED GOLD COINS
AS BANGLES
Twenty Million Yellow Dollars Were
Coined and Yet There Is
Premium on Them.
CKansas City Journal.)

The small gold dollar is one of the
most remarkable of American coins.
Every issue now bears a premium, and
I'm some cases this amounts to more
than 800. Yet these coins We're issued
for forty years, from 1S49 to 1889, and
grand total of nearly twenty and a half
million pieces were turned out during
that period by the governments COIN
age presses.
There are seventy-five varieties of the
gold dollar. OF these the Philadelphia
mint struck forty, New Orleans SIX
San Francisco seven, Charlotte On. c.
nine, and Dahlonega (Ga.) thirteen.
The gold dollar struck at Dahlonega
in 1861 is probably the rarest. Only
two specimens are known up to date
and each is worth over 800. The 1860
I'D" dollar is worth S3S, and one of the
same mint dated 1855 recently sold for
$50
| The dollar ranking next in point of
rarity is the one dated 1854, which was
coined at the Charlotte mint. This
bears the Liberty head on the diverse
and the mint letter &C" The United
States mint records state that only four
! were coined, and a single specimen is
( now easily worth 800.
| The Philadelphia mint's rarest gold
dollar is dated 1875. In this year just
! 400 gold dollars were struck Each one
of these is worth from $50 upward.
For some reason the gold dollar
struck at the San Francisco mint In
| 1870 ranks ir rarity with the scarcest
issues of the other mints. This dollar
has a record price of sos, and yet 1900
were coined
A few years ago these little coins
were plentiful. Their present scarcity
has come about chiefly through their
use as bangles on bracelets.
When this fad was at its height,
about twenty years ago, It was a COM
mon thing for young woman TO pos
sess q bracelet with from ten to twen-
ty-flve gold dollars dangling therefrom.
Each or these had the design erased
! from one side. and upon the smooth
surface were engraved the Initials OF
the particular admirer who presented
the bangle.
| A girls popularity was often meas
ured by the number OF bangles she
wore on ~ bracelet. and it may be
| imagined how many gold dollars were

OVERTHROW OF MCDONALD.


The de facto governor Of Colorado.
Jesse Mcdonald, was not renominated
by the Republican state convention
that met i'm Denver last week McDon-
aid didn't even come close to being
nominated. The fact is that of the four
candidates before the convention he
was given the smallest number of
votes. Yet the convention that de-
feated him so ingloriously was careful
TO pass "A resolution endorsing his adj
ministration. There is a splendid
sample OF Republican consistency.
McDonald's administration. accord
ing to the delegates. was a perfect sue
cess. But they didn't care to go before
the people with him at the head of
their ticket. We wonder why? Was it
because Mcdonald became governor by
reason Of the most fragrant fraud ever
committed in the politics of the west?
Did the Republican convention fear
that the voters might remember this
fraud and bury Mcdonald under an
adverse majority so heavy that he
could never burrow his way out from
beneath it?
Certainly the indications are that
way. And lest the people forget it may
be as well to state just how Mcdonald
happened TO be governor of Colorado
dc facto. for one term. At the last
state election i'm Colorado Alva Adams,
the Democratic nominee for governor
was elected by plurality of upwards
of 10000 votes. Peabody was the can
didate of the Republicans for governor.
Mcdonald for lieutenant governor.
The legislature and the supreme
court were in the hands of the Repub-
leans. I'm spite of the verdict Of the
people the legislature counted Adams
out and the supreme court upheld the
robbery But this was not all. To
merely count Adams out would have
meant the seating of Peabody Pea
body wasn't wanted by some Of the
Republican legislators. They wanted
10 pretend, AT least 10 themselves. that
they were honest. Therefore they re-
fused to vote to unseat Adams unless
Pea body would agree to resign and per-
init Mcdonald. who had received plu-
raiity OF the votes cast for lieutenant
governor. 20 become chief executive.
This plan, then was adopted Pea
body agreed to it verbally. but he was
not trusted. The legislators who were
seeming TO hold out for decency re-
quired him To place his resignation in
escrow. TO be released as soon as Ad-
ANS was ousted, The scheme worked
out TO the conclusion planned. Nc
Donald was seated, and he has since
remained in office
The Colorado Republicans evidently
hope 10 make political capital out of
his defeat, but they cannot get away
from their endorsement Of his admins
tratior. And if the voters Of Colorado
do not get together this fall and adj
minister to the Republicans a defeat so
overwhelming as TO make IT impossible
for them to steal the office again. then
Colorado voters do not deserve honest
elections and fair counts.

Was Pinkey happier than the ordin-
airy alley cat. and is Blackey happier?
They are not saying anything about
il, but doesn't 1T make you sad ito
think of the pleasures of which these
cats have been deprived. No back
fence choruses for them, no agile dodg-
lug of the HURTING bootjack, no
shocks at the cursings from an indig-
nant neighborhood. Nothing of that
sort at all. Pinkey was and Blackey
is bathed at a certain hour every day.
fed at certains hours, curried at GER
tain hours. exercised at certain hours.
What rot. The natural conclusion
is not that Dilley was a more than
ordinarily humane man, but that he
was a most extraordinary sort of ass.
He thought more of those two miser-
able cats than he did OF the poor chill
dren Of Wilkesbarre. With that $4,000
he might have made a children's play
ground possible; he might have had
the income used in providing the lit
tie ones with an annual picnic or other
outing; he might have clothed and
sheltered and fed the orphans and the
widows. There are so many good and
useful things that might have been
done with the interest from this fund
that there is not time to mention
them.
The Herald yields TO none in its de-
sire to see animals well cared for, hui
namely treated, but to lavish wealth
on a pair of cats is to perform an ac-
ton that seems little short of criminal
There should be a law against per-
formances of that sort.
