In 1 !''! Jefferson Issued an oflielal or
(b r suspending the coining of silver dol

From that time until 1S:!4 1111 silver dnl

in uiiytliinK but Hold, unlesm the bund
Itself siieiilied some other specltic kind
of 111 nil-ill . If, therefore, there was
any practliiil sl.iiilicance in the saerl
leuious simile of'.lie boy orator uf the
I'latt ", Jefferson was the lirst tn crucl
f tlie A lllel h a II pcotde on II ( l oss of
rohl. And the heaviest crown of thorns
ever pressed down on the brow of Amer
ican labor, is the existing: tariff law; in
the enactment of which the boy ora.tor
was amontr the most rhetorical if not
prominent of ils itdvnoutes.
Then? is no single silver standard
that has any Mold irciilatlntf as money,
and iliere w ill never be any so lung us
ils silver money is of less commercial
value than its jroM. There Is no single
field standard country that does not
use silver in its cir uhithiK medium. If,
therefore, there is to be but one stand
ard either Hold or silver, and that is 11
question to be decijled next November,
then Kold is In every way preferable.
The evpeiise of handling silver by rea
son of its greater bulk and its greater
weight over eold w'uuld prevent its tisr
as it always lias In all large business
transactions. At 'the f.ttio of eolniise of
pi ounces of silver to one of Bold its
wviiiht is 1U times greater than gold
and in bulk it is thirty-five times great
er, which adds to the inconvenience and
expense of Its use as a money standard.
Another reason why gold is preferable,
if there Is to be but one standard, Is that
Is varies l-si- in the amount and costs of
its production from year to year as
proven by the experience of four hund
red years, if not ut all time,

KiNOUAXOK UF I'NAIN FACTS.
This grunt lriercase In tlm prodiietlon
of silv er in the United States, and in the
world since 1S7U would of course lessen
its market, value, even though there
had been no reduction in the cost of
ils production. U.ut the advocates of
silver coinage 10 to 1, with their char
acteristlcc ignoring of plain facts, con
stantly declare ihal silver has not gone
down In market value but thai gold
has gone 110. Thus Ignoring entirely
the great im rersse in its piodui tion in
the last twenty-five years, and the al
most unit"! 10 annual production of
gold during I he sumo period. The per
sistency with which the assertion is
made that silver has gone down, vvfth
the tigiir.s of its pi oduet ion and
m:ir'i"t value before us. reminds me of
the Indian trying to find his wigwam

The i ffect of the free and unlimited !
coinage of silver as this time nt a'
r"tii of lfi .unices of silver to one of
gold, would be that a person in nnvj
foreign country in debt to the people lit 1
this country one million of dollars could )
buy In the market of his own country
silver bullion costing five hundred
thousand dolors and bring it to our mint
nnd have it coined Into dollars, and with j
it he could pay his one million dollars;
of Indebtedness to American eKIzens. j
While nil American citizen owing n'
million of dollars to citizens of a foreign
country, should lie take one mill'nn of
our silver standard dollars to the coun-'
try of his credit or, they would pny
there only five hundred thousand dol
lars of Indebtedness.
We hour much from cheap motley ad
vocalVs of the weiilth and groatmss of

its ever increusing population and

Any nation, iu matter how pour or how
weak. Is great enough to make r:i cents

do that whenever Its people are rcuilv
to repudiate their honest debts, and to

SAN FRANCISCO GOLD SNPM.Y.
Has Hern Itediiced liy Person Mho
Ifesire to Hoard the Yellow Metal.
Washington, Aug. 13. The treasury
department has received no informa
tion about the alleged refusal of as
sistant treasurer at Sun Francisco to
exchange gold for silver ceitllk-ales.
This is a practice that he has followed
for years and Is peculiar alone to thu
San Francisco sub-treasury. On the
Pacific ccast nearly all the money in
circulation is gold und silver coin. Hut
little paper money Is used. For the
convenience of bunkers and others
who desired to make shipments of
money to the east, a practice had
grown up ut San Fiancisco of ex
changing silver certificates for sold.
It cost less to ship $l.Win In paper to
New York than $t,0i0 In coin. In this
way the nltleials of the sub-treasury
gradually made nil forms of money
Interchangeable over its counter. As
a result, the sub-treasury gained from
$2.11110,000 to $:;,ixiii.iujn ) ,,,1,1 annually
for tho past few years, while all other
.sub-treusuricu in the cast .were losing
gold.
llecently Its stock nf gold lins been
reduced, evidently for hoarding pur
poses, as San Francisco Is one of two
points only where greenbacks are re
deemable New York being the other
and for that reason It Is presumed
that the practice has been continued
of making all moneys Interchangeable.
As it was simply a practice and lint
a treasury regulation treasury ottlcl.ils
say there wtis no need of their being
Inlormed of It. If It is presumed they
will be equally in ignorance of the
fuet.

THREE ARE RELEASED.
Ward, tlutc.iitbmn and Outcalt Arc nu
Longer on the Fcranton Club.
Decided Last Ni;ht.
P'cnnd Haseman Frank AVard. Cap
tain nnd First Haseman Hutchinson
and Catcher Outcalt were released by
the Scranton base ball club lart night.
The relenses were decldeil upon at a
confeience between Manager Clrilfin
and the owners in the office of Thomas
ft. P.rooks.
There still remains fifteen players
under contract, including Mutineer
C.riflln. and it was due to this extent of
playing material that the three were
released. Kelster will take Ward's
place at second and Hickey will be the
extra Inflelder. Manager Hi Ifliii will o
Into the outfield In an emergency, or
O'Hrien could be played In the Infield
Under certain conditions, Hickey re
placing O'Brien.
The managements' action cannot be
Justly criticised. There may be some
lana who .will regret that Kelater waa
retained In preference to Ward, but the
position was assumed that while Ward
Individually is one of the best second
basemen In the league, he did not Im
prove the team work. That he has fal
len off In his th-ldlng and hlttlna; lately
there is no question. This was no doubt
due to a strained stomach, the Injury
being- sustained several weeks ago in
Kochester, but on business ftrouiids. if
there were no other reasons, the action
taken-seems justifiable.
With Outcalt gone, the club still ha
Hi-rvjer and Howerman. Hutchinson's
bitting lately has been weak und there
was no position open for him after the
slpninir of Massey.
Manager (rillin Is satisfied that had
tho club been made up early in the sea
son as It Is at present. Scranton would
not now be last in the race, and he be
lieves that next year the club will start
on about even terms with its competitors.
