THE SILVER DOLLAR.
Our Largest Coin Has Undergone Many
Changes Since 1894.

The silver dollar has undergone
many changes since it was put in cir
culation in 1894 On the face of the
first dollar there was stamped the head
of a young woman turned to the right
and with hair flowing as if she We're
in gale of wind. but in 1196 congress
came to her relief and ordered her hair
to be tied up with bit of ribbon. says
the Washington Post The fifteen
stars which appeared on the first dol
lar were after this reduced to the orig
inal thirteen, in recognition of the
number of states.
In 1886 the design was again changed,
and the dollar bore the figure of wo-
man dressed in a flowing garment.
The designer forgot, however, to put
in the thirteen stars, and the coin was
discarded, the new design having the
woman surrounded by stars Her hair
was defiant and stiff looking, and in
1888 dollars We're issued which We're
more artistic in treatment.
The first dollars bearing the motto ''In
God We Trust We're coined in April
1864, and in 1878 the era of the trade
dollar began, lasting just five years.
The liberty dollar made its appearance
in 1873. Miss Anna w. Williams, a

IN 1882 Grover Cleveland, while may
or of Buffalo, was elected governor Of
New York by n plurality of 10000,
due almost entirely to bitter faction

The very prodigality of this majority
fastened upon him the eyes of the
party and caused Daniel Manning. one
of the shrewdeSt of the politicians
trained by Tilden. to fix upon him as
the most available candidate for the
presidential nomination. =
More than two-thirds of the delegates
voted for Cleveland on the second and
final ballot, and his nomination was
made unanimous on motion of Thomas
A Hendricks. who was subsequently
named for vice president.

strange as this have occurred before.
Yes, right among themselves the I'M
expected Gncluding the nomination of
dark horses'0 has not been q stranger.
FIRST DARK HORSE
The first dark horse was James *
Polk. He was candidate for vice
president at the tine, in 1914, while
Van Buren, was Jackson's choice for
president.
The annexation of Texas, however.
was the burning issue of the hour and
Van Buren, had expressed his opposi-
ton to it Moreover, there had been
developed in New York some hostility
to him.
The adoption of the two-thirds rule
assured Van Buren's defeat. Neither
Cass. johnson nor Buchanan the other

prominent candidates, could compel
success, and after three days struggle
all three were put aside and the nomi-
nation given to Polk, who had aspired
to nothing higher than the vice presi-
dency. Silas Wright, Van Buren's
closest friend, was the conventions
choice for second place on the ticket,
but his declination to accept led to the
selection OF George NJ. Dallas of Penn
sylvania.
A dark horse won in the Democratic
national convention held at Baltimore
ON June 1, 1852.
On the thirty fifth ballot fifteen votes
were cast for Franklin Pierce of New
Hampshire. Pierce up to that time
had not been publicly mentioned as a
candidate, but months before it had
been planned by Caleb Gushing, Ben
jamin E. Butler and other New Eng
land politicians, in anticipation of a
deadlock at Baltimore, to spring his
name at the critical moment and trust
to a stampede to insure his nomination.
This plan was rewarded with success.
Pierce's vote steadily increased till the
forty ninth and last ballot, when the
convention gave him 2S2 votes, with
only six scattering.
BUCHANAN'S NOMINATION
The Democratic national convention
held in Cincinnati on June 2, 1856,
lasted four days. The nomination was
contested for by President Pierce,
Buchanan and Douglas. The part
Pierce and Douglas had taken in the
repeal of the Missouri compromise
weighed against them, while Buchanan,
who had been out of the country for
several years as minister to England,
had kept aloof from the disputes that
were disrupting his party. Moreover,
it was urged in his behalf that he
could carry the admittedly doubtful
state of Pennsylvania He led in ey-
cry ballot to the sixteenth, when he re-
ceived 16S votes to 121 for Douglas and
six scattering. Then Douglas ended
the battle by telegraphing that as
Buchanan was clearly the choice of the
majority OF the delegates he should be
given the necessary two-thirds vote.
The unexpected happened in the
Democratic national convention which
met in New York on July 4,-1S6S.
Months before the convention assem-
bled it had been decided by Horatio
Seymour and other Democratic leaders
that Salmon P. Chase, who had be

party, should be nominated for presi-
dent, and save for one mans craft
this plan would have been carried into
execution. That man was Samuel ].
Tilden. who decided that the candidacy
of Chase would spell defeat. Instead.
he planned with subtle strategy to
nominate Seymour 1t had been ar
ranged that Seymour. who had been
chosen chairman of the convention
was to leave the chair to nominate

pose. and when Seymour called an
