Let Ui Mass Our Own Money Standard Be- gardlesa or the World Barlow, Dec. 3. (To the Editor.) Honest monev is what every honest roan wants.

Any other policy would let in the rag money party, without any bottom at all. The single gold standard will not do for our government. Gold can alwavs be hoarded, and misers can bury it out of sight and use. Brokers will keep up a constant fluctuation between the two metals, unless we have a fixed standard value ot our own, fixing their relation. Now, 16 to 1 was about the difference between the two metals from the years 1087 to 1S73. It never exactly reached 16 to 1 for a period of 186 years, except for three years during that time. The silver began to increase in output, all on account of American energy and improved mahinery, though the relative value based on labor of the two metals was, according to mint reports, only 14 lj to 1. It is safe to say that the actual parity of the two metals, as it lies in the bowels of tbe earth, is nearer 16 to 1 than any other ratio, and both put together are not enough for a good business cir culation. There are very few people who know the actual small bulk of the two metals. If all the gohl out of the enrth now (availahle for coinage, not in the earth) were melted, it would fill a box 22 feet cubic; all the silver would only fill one 66 feet cube. There it is all in a nutshell. The magnitude and pon derosity are not so great, that with our inci eased population and civilization we could well afford to liave boxes of it twice as larne. Some people and some newspapers speak about supply and de mand regulating the price of silver, the same as articles we eat and drink. But in order to insure ourselves food and raiment, gold and silver money should have a fixed purchasing value, in order to obtain the wavering necessities oi life If we have to have one standard, by all means, let it be silver, just as it was from the foundation of the government prior to 1873. Then silver was clandes tinely demonetized for the express inter est of money brokeis and English bond holders. It is repoited and tolerably well authenticated that Enttlish magnates put up $2,000,000 to accomplish the demonetization of silver, but it is said that to their surprise and delight only $503,000 were required. Gold then became the standard, and all obligations had to be redeemed in gold. Silver went down, the mines closed, smelters eeased operations and depression and stagnation are the re sults now. Whore is the remedy? "The greatest good to the greatest numbers," all Americans will admit is a solid principle. How would this plan work? Coin all the silver and gold that can be produced in America, in cluding Mexico and Dominion of Canada, (should they desire toco-operate), at 16 to 1. Make that the standard of the United States, or of North Americi, it our neighbors joined us. If not, let ns make our own standard, just as we made our republic out of oppression ; just as we have taken the initiatory step in nearly all the reforms of the world. Let us not stop now in the work of progression. American commodities are in demand the wor'd over. Wny cannot oui foreign brothers, who need our produce, submit to our terms as well as we to theirs? It in not American to imitate, but rather to dictate. The Revolution, war of 1812, Alabama question and other affairs of state give us reasons for knowing oar power. Let other governments make their own standards; we do not object so long as they do not interfere with onr. A money standard of our own we most nave, tor wimoui one mere is noiravern- ' ",ent but only a treasury at the mercy of money-brokers and the great money monopjlistg of the world. With a single Kld standard England could and woald I own our country in 50 vears. But the I ' j people will not submit to this. The old I Principles, "a government for the people, by the people and of the people," would be attain verified very quicklv. We would riee in our might, elect presidents) and representatives who would repudiate -i -.: . :i i .i . .i. Chsiiu niiuui, u iuiixu hi .ui.il uritruocj the whole debt, with one stroke of the pen. That will be the sorry result if we continue the void standard. Further, let all the gold and silver be oine I for the person or persons who own the bullion. Thev would find vaults to put it in without any expense to tne government, and it would soon be sent broadcast among the people. Expan sion is what is needed. Gold means contraction ; silver means expansion. . n , it nntu nS tnnnav Km t nf larwir anI 0v.rv ' ' tllin8 toat the eartn P"es. Tbe change would give employment to over 110,000,000 people. This, coupled with Let us now leave this question of tv single gold standard to the yoters of tbe United States. In that section west of the Mississippi river and south of the Ohio there would not be 10 voters out of 100 who would endorse it, and in other portions of our land the repudiation of tbe gold standard would be increased to such an extent that it is safe to say that the majority would declare in favor of the honest money of the United States gold and silver.

George Blanchard returned home from Scappoose where he has been engaged working on a milk ranch, and with his family has moved in his residence near Brown's school house. Frank McCormack, while riding horse back recently, had an accident which don't always turn out so luckv as Frank did . His horse fell pinioning him to the ground. He says it was nearly fifteen minutes before he could get the horse off f torn him. He was consider ably bruised, but no bones were oroken. B. C. Leland, while hauling baled hay over Clackamas county's late roads on a sled, it capsized and going, as tbe boys said, clear out of sight, hay and all. Henry Evins, of Canby passed through here last Saturday on his way to Canby with a yoke of oxen he had purchased from Hunter, of Cams. One of Mr. Ileuras' sick horses died last Tuesday. J. L. Waldron is sacking potatoes to ship to San Francisco. R. O. Veteto and Mr. Chrim are busy blasting rocks and clearing ground for J. C. Newberg. A baling mactiine is busy baling straw for J. E.

Do you know that Moore's Revealed Remedy is the only patent medicine in tbe world that does not contain a drop of alcohol ; that the mode of preparing it is known only to its diicover ; that it is an advance in the science of medicine without a parallel in the nineteenth century; that its proprietors offer to forfeit "$1,000 for any case of dyspepsia it will not cure? Home-made bread is recognized as the very best at all times and the cus tomers of J. Egle the Shively building baker assert that they can not tell the difference between his bread and that made at home unless it be that his is just a little the better. But don't tell your wife that.
