Treasury Coins Silver Dollars.

Washington, June 19.-Coinage OF
silver dollars has been resumed by
the mint after lapse of seven years
and the work of replacing the $279,-
600, 900 standard silver dollars taken
from the treasury during the war to
sell to Great Britain has been begun.
Since last March, treasury officials
said tonight, approximately 10000
600 silver dollars had been coined. In
the same period corresponding
amounts of silver certificates were
issued and federal reserve notes and
treasury notes securing them, retiredk
This process, officials said, would
probably continue for the next five
years until the treasury's reserve OF
silver dollars is back to its pre-war
basis.
The mint, officials explained ceas-
ed coming silver dollars in 1914 when
the supply of metal purchased under
the coinage act was exhausted. Fur
ther authority to make the dollar was
not forthcoming until 1918, when
congress passed the Pittman act to
enable the sale of melted dollars to
England for the relief of the silver
famine in India.
Under the. terms of the act, Direc-
tor of the Mint Baker sold to Eng
land 27s, 100000 Q silver dollars,
amounting to 100000 pieces of
silver at s1.O11a an ounce, plus the
market price of the copper contained
in the dollar. The IL cents, Mr.. Ba-
ker explained tonight, paid for the
cost of melting and transportation
and the cost of recoinage.
The work of refining the hole left
! in the tceasury's vaults, Mr.. Baker
said, was now well under way, the
mint striking off silver dollars at the
rate of about eight to ten million
month. Since May, 1920, the mint has
bought about fifty-ive million ounces
of American silver at 81 an ounce
and will continue to make it's pur-
chases. at this price until the treas,
ury's stock is replenished.
Despite the fact that the Pittman
act requires the mint to pay $1.00
an ounce for is silver, Mr.. Baker de-,
,clared, queries are constantly receiv-
ed demanding why the government
pays so much more for it's silver than
the market price. The price was fixed
by the act, he stated, to stabilize the
price of silver when there were indi-
cations of it's reaching unheard of
heights during the war. As result of
the governments action in confning
the treasury's purchases to silver,
both produced and reduced in this
country, the American silver mining
industry was protected from over
whelming foreign competition, Mr..
Baker said. Because Of the price at
which the silver was sold to England,
the government is breaking little
better than ever on the transaction,
he added.

Old Hiram Palmer sat by
the window waiting for the
postman. Christmas eve
had been rather bleak. He
had seen, from the window, groups Of
people passing from time to time, hur-
rying. smiling, such gay. happy peo-
pie.
Hiram was old, too old. He had
outlived his friends, his immediate
family, his day had long since gone
by. He had given generously to hos
pitfalls and charitable institutions and
a number Of personal presents. He
always. for example, sent some Of the
large baskets of fruit the towns lead
ing shop arranged so attractively, to
those he knew would never buy them
selves such delicacies.
The last Christmas he had only re-
ceived two presents. One from his
nephew out West and another from
a grandchild.
He was waiting for these now.
The postman came along the street.
Eagerly old Hiram waited. And then

Islands Journalism
Equal to Mainland
(Moberly (Mo.) Democrat.


Mrs. NJ. G. Duncan of Oakland, Cal.
is here visiting relatives and old
friends after an absence of forty-two
years. Mrs. Duncan is the daughter
of S. P. Tate who built and ran the
first hotel in Moberly. This building
was on the location now occupied by
the Merchants Hotel. 1t was opened
in the fall of '6S. 1t was from the
veranda of this hotel that the first
preaching in Moberly was heard. The
late Rev. J.. A. Berry being the minis
ter.
Mr.. Tate was also engaged in the
general dry goods business with Mr..
Bennett, the father of Joe Bennett
North Morley street. Mrs. Duncan's
husband was one of the pioneer drug
gists of Moberly.
Mrs. Duncan left here in 70 and
this is her first visit here since that
time. She expects to go down to
Sedalia to the state fair and believes
she stands a good chance to get the
prize offered for the person who has
come the longest distance and been
out of the state the longest.
She visited the Democrat office yes
terday morning and left two copies
of newspapers sent by her son who
lives at Maui, Hawaii. One of the
papers is called the Maui News and
the other is the Honolulu Star-Bul-
letin.
These papers show that journalism in
that part of Uncle Sans possessions
is equal in up-to-dateness with the
best on the mainland. The world
news and local news is given in first
class style, the strange note being
given by Island names and products.
The ladies will realize the modern
ity of things feminine when we tell
them the Marinello beauty parolrs
flourish there as here. Among soci-
ETY. items we note "a Poi Dinner"

Kuhio Announces He
Will Not Seek to Be
Reelected Delegate

Delegate J. X. Kalanianaole will not
seek reelection to the Office which he
has held for 20 years and will retire
from congress at the expiration of
the present term, he announced on his
return to Honolulu this week. He says
that he will devote himself, after re-
tirement, to the rehabilitation and
upbuilding and uplifting to his people
of the Hawaiian race. His announce
ment is not entirely unexpected but
at the same time has been received
with the keenest interest and has
provoked discussion as to whom his
successor will be.
Various possibilities for delegate
ship have been discussed in the past
with Robert w. Single perhaps most
prominently mentioned but there will
be no dearth of Republican possibili-
ties. One democrat is reported as
ready to step into the ring, Chief
Justice J. L. Coke who is said to
have announced on his recent visit to
Maui that he would be a candidate for
nomination and election if Kuhio
should determine to retire.
