Our First Money.

The first United States money was
made In iISG. but Instead OF bearing
the flceS of leading statesmen II bore
only the face Of Liberty. Some few
coius were stamped with the face Of
Washington and are highly valued by
collectors. The first coins struck by
the United States mint were some half
dimes in 1892. The first United States
dimes were struck In France from old
silver family plate furnished by Wash
ngton and We're known as Martha
Washington dimes" from the fact that
the Liberty head was adapted to that

OACRAMENTO. Jan. 2o-Go,
crnor Gillett has at last given OF
- his formal decision that he wi
not be a candidate for reelection ;
governor OF California. His letter
ss follows:
P. S. Teller. Chairman Republican
State Central Committee. San
Francisco.
Dear Sir: l promised to inform
the committee through you of any
decision that 1 might reach in ref
erence to being a candidate for
reelection.
After carefully weighing the
matter for some time 1 have
finally decided not to be candi-
date. 1t is for the best interest
Of myself and family that l should
again resume the practice of my
profession, and can not well
afford to continue in the Office of
governor for another period of
four years.
I feel very grateful to my party
for the many honors conferred
upon me. and to my friends for
their loyal support and the kindly
advice which they have at all
times given me, and it is exceed
ingly hard at this time to decline
their most earnest request to be-
come q candidate again
Many things which 1 have de-
sired to accomplish have become
laws; notably, the banking act,
insurance laws, pure food bill, rail-
road rate bill, reciprocal demur-
rage act, employers liability act,
a training school for orphan chill
dren, etc. Three other improve
ments which are of great concern
10 our state and in which / have
been and am intensely interested,
viz. the improvement of the navi-
cation of the Sacramento and San
Joaquin rivers and the reclama-
ton of thousands of acres of most
fertile lands along their banks,
system Of state highways connect
ing our several counties and the
centers of population and the
making of San Francisco harbor
one Of the best and cheapest in
the world to take care of the great
commerce which will come to our
state, are well under way.
The last two will be submitted
to the electors of our state at the
fall election and will have my
most earnest support. l trust our
party will indorse the work and
use its best efforts to secure from
the people favorable decision.
AS ] have already said, have a
deep feeling of gratitude for the
high honors which the people of
California have conferred upon
me. / shall at all times be ready
and willing to help advance every
interest of our state and to advo-
cate those measures which will
tend to develop and make it
greater; and whomsoever my
party shall decide upon to be my
successor will receive my earnest
support and any assistance l may
be able to give him. Yours truly,

were such as to justify the killing of

families in the south. His father is
