Legal Tender.

You can't force mean creditor to
take more than % cents worth of nick
els or 70 cents worth of copper cents.
If you could get as much as So worth
OF old silver three cent pieces of anoth-
er generation you could unload IS worth
on him, just as he would have to take
So worth of the obsolete 20 cent pieces,
which made SO much trouble in the late
los. But you can pay out $40 in silver
dimes and silver quarters and silver
half dollars; the trade dollar-of which
there are few still coming into the
Treasury of the United States for re-
demption-are worth nothing, while the
standard dollar is an unlimited legal
tender, as is the "old dollar of our
dads the first of which was coined in
1894 and the last in 1873.
Coins that virtually have disappeared
from circulation are So and 81 gold
pieces, the trade dollar of silver, the
nickle three cent piece, the copper half
cent and silver three and five cent
pieces.-Chicago Tribune.
To avoid Understandings we want
to state that THE REPORTER is not a
mean creditor" Subscription &C
counts can be paid in any old kind of
money or anything that looks enough
like money so that we can trade it to
the butcher, the baker or the candle
stick maker. If more coin comes in
than one man can carry we are per-
fectly willing to hire dray.
