THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. 'BATTLE CF THE STANDARDS I1B FINANCIAL QCFSTION IS 1 NATIONAL ISSUE. -A Tol'lon of the Parties How Silver Demonetized Tliwi of Blmetallllti- ' 1'renent Value of Silver A Bqnart Fight. I ' The prelden.lal campaign this yea) develops practically ft new Issue li I American politics. The Issue of ellvei ' versus gold lias affected State and i Congressional politics, but It has hith erto been carefully straddled toy th national political oonyeivtlons. Thli yrmr both parties ostensibly declar for bimetallism, or the double stand ard, the difference being that the Re publican platform calls for main I tam ing t)he present gold basis until bi metallism can be secured by an In ternational agreement with the lead ing powers of Europe, while the Demo cratic platform declares for the imme diate and Independent restoration ol 'bimetallism by the United States. In the public mind the contest has al- William McKlniev. rady assumed the character of a bat tle of the standards of bimetallism ngainst gold. i The Democrats ask for free silver coinage at a basis of 18 to 1. That means that they wish the national mint to accept and coin Into money both silver and gold at a ratio of .value of sixteen ounces of silver 'to one ounce of gold. At the present time thd American gold dollar contains 23.3 grains of pure gold, while the silver dollar contains 2714 grains of pure silver. This Is at the ratio of 16 to 1. At the present time the United States coins silver dollars only as It wants to w thorn, and exercises the 'right to accept or reject Bllver at Its own pleas ure. Still, the sliver coinage Is larger than ever before In our history, and the silver dollar is maintained on a parity with gold by being redeemable In gold. The history of the battle of the standards Is interesting. Great Brit ain began it as far back as 1816, when Bllver was demonetized, and that na tion has been on a gold basis ever alnoe. The United States, Germany, Trance and the Latin Union kept their mints open to the free coinage of silver until 1S72, when the United States fol lowed England's example. Germany, r-Iosed Its mints to silver In July, 1873, ind France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy and Greece followed suit In 1874. Prom 1872 until 1894 the United States threw a sop to the silver mine owners in the way of the coinage of a fixed imount of silver monthly, paying tor :t In gold. At the present time silver has so fallen tin value that the amount of sil ver contained in a dollar piece la worth William J. Dry an. anly a little over fifty cents. The free ilver advocates claim that this fall In value was due to the demonetization ot silver, and that the metal will again rise to the value it formerly had If the t'nlted States opens its mints again to tree silver coinage". The gold men dls- igree In opinion. Some believe an in Ui-n.atlon.al agreement or treaty can bo arranged to restore the price of sil ver. Practically all the leading states men of this country, and many In Kin-one. favor an effort in this dlrec lion. A conference representing the " . 1 XSw ft V 7 Mrs. William J. lliyuu. f iiil!nr rowers of Europe and tho I'ulted States met In Devlin. In 1833, but iiuh:U to oome to au agreement 'lilefly tUrou;jh the opposition of the livHhb. delc-Ratea. Provident Cleve land lias not favored another confer ence, probably -believing It would be barren of reault. i The iblmetalllots proper believe that Uicio Is not enough gold in tuo world 7 'Mr to form a basis for all the money the world needs. Conservative men ol this belief do not think the United States alone can restore the value ol Bllver. Mr. Whitney and his friends at Chicago represented this ldoa. The leading Democratic and Populist lead ers ot the South and West favor Im mediate action by the united States. The action of the Chicago Convention baa brought the question to a direct issue. The contest between the great parties thla fall will be fairly and squarely a fight of silver against gold, it is perhaps well that the Issue Is made. The battle of standards is die- turning ail ousineas, ana is large ly re sponsible for the long-continued busi ness depression. The November elec tion will declare the will of the Amer ican people, and In doing so will bring an end to the doubt aa to a proper na tional financial policy which has evi dently brought confusion ana aiscour- agement Into commercial circles every where. Most wise financiers Know that business stability depends upon publio confidence, and It is to be hoped, when the battle of the standards has been fought to ft finish, the people will everywhere loyally accept the result. R. L. 8IMM8. PACKING ONE'S CLOTHES. Done Properly, It Means Little Labor and No Wrinkles, The marvel of packing clothes is that it is so simple, says a writer in the St. Louis Fost-Dispatch. When you see for the first time a profession al French packer put up your best gowns, you feel sure you will come to your journey's end without a rag to wear. I la puts three times as many things in the same space as you would. Some goods wrinkle so badly that no care can avert catastrophe i they come to grief even in the hands of a French maid at home. Test everything you buy from this point of view. With material not given over to evil you can learn to pack so that your clothes won't tell the tale of their prison house. 1 he cardinal point is to wrap up every delicate garment separately ; of course, it should be folded smoothly, and to teach how to fold clothes in print is not easy. Apy good dress maker, however, can give you points on that, and the wrapping is the more important thing. Pin towels or sheets of tissue paper about your gar ment, but remember that newspapers are what you should fold between each layer of pretty things in the trunk. Nothing else is so good ; it is so unyielding that wrinkles and protruberances cannot make them selves felt through it to mark the fabrics beneath them any more than if you had used sheet iron. In packing breakable articles it is astonishing how many people will jam them down in corners and sides where they get the full force of every concussion against the unyielding walls. Tie on your corks well. Put your bottle near the middle of a compartment, and you may carry ink and shoe dressing in safety around the world. In packing such things as delicate hats, bonnets and fancy waists of such frou frou nature that no pressure can be allowed on them, it is still better to fill up the empty space of the boxes allotted to them with lightly twisted sheets of tissue paper tnan to give them a chance to move, and with all due respect to the best pack ing in the world, it is still well to unpack as soon as you can. A Eeception Easily Practised is the offer of a reward for "any case of catarrh not cured" by certain "cures" or "blood medicines." Nothing is said regarding the number of bottles recmired, and therein lies the decep tion. The makers of Ely's Cream Balm, have never resorted to such devices. Cream Balm is an elegant preparation, agreeable to use, and immediate in its beneficial results. It cures catarrh. Vou can rely upon the fact that it contains no mercury nor other injurious drug, socts.
