Our II mt coinMKD law a were adopted by
cuiigtcea ill 171'2 upon Ihe report of
Alexander Hamilton, then aocretary of
Ihe ireitMiry. Hamilton look Iba ut
tiiuhl .iiiM, ae Iho report ahowa, lo aa
certain llm commercial ratio Iwtween
silver and icohl. and he arrived at tba
C'JfJCl'J?!?!! VSa 1-3 I. In Ihia
concluaion Jefferson concurred and it be
came the law. lint it proved erronooua,
Incauro it nudervaluud gold to a email
extent, mid the reault waa that guld was
eiorUiil as bullion. It may Im raid
alHu in paneitiK that oiur own stiver coins
did nut clrculata eitht r, for Ihe reason
tiiat congress bad, made Mexican and
r-paiiii-li-Ainerlcan silver coins legal
tender, nnd thestt bring inferior lo our
own in value drove Ihem out of circula
tion.
Thus from 17D-, when our mint was
Li ml tetallisbed, to 1831, when our coin-
ai;o laws wero revised, Uiero Mas very
little of American gold or silver coma in
circulation, vunug ttiu iienod we were
on thn riiver hinis.

tliii resiilied in th disapiearabci of

Iho circulation. It was more valuable
an bullion than uh money, aud ol course
ihuHu who possessed It used it in its
iiioH valuable shape. (Jold came into
circulation and from that tune has beeti
Iho money of account. Lveu the smaller
American silver coins werr not in use,
owinittothtt inferior Hpanisb-Amcrican
coins in circulation.
This hinory iilustratea the truth of
the no-called Ureshaui law, that where
there are two standards and two or more
kinds of coin, all of which in equally ten
der. the i- fertor will he used and the su-
eriur will ditupiicar from circulation.
It is a law based on huuiau natnre and
finds proof in the experience of every
individual. The history of other nations
In this respect is the same aa oar own,
and we challenge any ''bimetallist" or
silvcrite to show that gold and ailver
coins out circulated together in any
country at a tixed ratio for any length
of liuie, oi w hen there was disparity be
tween the leal ratio aud the commer
cial ratio.
Gage's Plan.
hecretury liage appeared before the
bouse committee on banking and curren
cy to preseut a bill embodying his views
for revision of the currency, to explain
and urgo its provisions, and to meet any
objections raised by the committee Af
ter being introduced Ire said :
Tho ohjiH'ts I have in the seriea of pro
visions ifTered by me are four in number.
first Tj commit the country tbor
ougl.ly to the gold standard and remove
so far as possible all doubts and fears on
that oiot,and thus strengthen the credit
of the United .States both nt home and
abioad.
Second To strengthen tba treasury In
relatioti to its demand liabilities, in which
aro included greenbacks, treasury notes
and tho incidental obligations to main
tain on a parity through tbeir intor
changeability with gold, so far as may be
necessary, the present large volume of
silver certilluatea and silver dollars.
Third lo do this in such a way as
uot to coutrttct the volume of circulation
in the liauda ol the people.
Fourth To take the initial ateps to
ward a system of banknote issues with
out a conditional deposit of public bonds
as security therefor.
If wo prosper as a ieople the revenue
of tbo government ought to be somewhat
in advance ol l' expenditures, ami the
public debt ol the United States gradual
ly reduced aud finally extinguished.
Lookini; ut thu ouestinn widely, from my
boat point of knowlodgo aud experience,
I feel that if theso things could be secur
ed, thu condition of the government in
its relation to the currency . would be
much Baler and stronger than now, and
that Ihrouli the operation ol the nation
al uuukuole currency, Ihe commercial
iutcrests of the I'nitod Mates would be
greatly udvaucud.

Our English friends are displaying
great activity in their attacks upon our
new protective tariff measure. They hail
with delight the assertions of tbeir dem
ocratic co-laborers in the United States
that the new law is not producing suf
ficient revenue to meet the runniug ex
penses of the government, and are again
doing all io their power to linn up that
element in the United States which has
been driven from its free trade by the
utter failure of the Wilson law after a
three years' lest. Ex.
Rigid economy in public expenditures
is the watch-word on the republican side
in congress. This was the recommenda
tion of President McKinley's message,
acd bas been re-echoed by Chairman
Cannon, of the House Appropriation
Committee, and Chairman l)ingley, of
the waya and means committee, and
there ia reason to believe that the repub
lican party in the present congress will
make a record of economy of which
members in all parts of the country will
have reason to be proud.
In selecting a jury in a southern court,
a lawyer iu a murder case asked a hardy
mouutaiueer: "!oyou believe in capi
tal punishnieut?'' "In capital punish
meut?" "Yes." "Xaw, I don't; I'm
agin capital wherever I sees it." "My
good niuu, you don't understand the
question. Iu plain words, if the pris
oner hero suouid be lounu guilty, would
you object to haugiug him?" "Not a
bit!" replied the man. "I've huug
do.eus iu my day. Fact is, I hang 'ein
every timet tiunit tney ueeos ill All 1
want is rope."
It is tho opinion of the Engineering
aud Mining Nowb, after a careful inves
tigation, that the gold discoveries in the
Kloudiue have been preposterously ex
aggerated, and that practically till uf the
K ondiko investment companies now try
ing to coll their 1 aud $5 bhurea to the
public are based tiou air. Nevertheless
they are able to parade well known
uames in politics and bunitics8 as presi
dents and directors. If such men could
be subjected to unlimited liability for the
resultH they would not be so scandalously
free lo lend their names to the tirst ad
venturer who comes along.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
farmers of the country have disiosed of
large ouaulitiea nl wool at greatly lu
creased prices, tho manufacturers are
still calling for more aud are now nuding
it necessary lo send abroad for additions
to their stocks, which are already run
uiug low. The great reduction iu lbs
number of sheep iu Ihe country which
resulted from democratic free trade
makes it necessary for the manufact
urera to draw a large amount of wool
from abroad until the farmers are able
to bring their flocks back lo the condi
tions which existed under the protective
Hawaii.
A Washington special of recent da' a
says:
There has been a decided change iu
ths situation regarding the Hawaiian
treaty within the last few days, and
members of the com mines oo foreign
relations are quite confident of its ratifi
cation. Senator Hoar says he i not op
posed to annexation of . the Hawaiian
islands as a territory, provided the
rights of the natives are thoroughly pro
tected. He ia, however opposed lo a
Hawaiian state.
Morrill of Veruioot has also been
counted against ratification, but like
Hoar, he it coming around all right.
This leaves Pettigrsw as the only repub
lican senator opposed to annexation.
Gorman, Morgan and Money have
commenced arrive operations on ths
democratic side, ana are making
thorough caovass in behalf ol ratifica
tion. Although the fate of the treaty
bas seemed doubtful ever ainc the
assemblage of eoogreas, the prospect is
now more hopeful than ever.
A Pioneer Gone.
Ihe sudden death of Mrs. N. T. Day,
of Wilbur, recorded last week, was a sur
prise to the family aod friends. Her
maiden name waa Martha A. Forrest.
She waa born in Platte county, Missouri,
April 25, 1444, and died at her borne in
Wilbur, Sunday, December 19, 187.
Coming to thia coast in an early day, she
was married to N. T. Day, October 25,
1850, in Dayton, Yamhill connty, Oregon.
The funeral took place on the 21st from
the Koeeburg Methodist churcb, con
ducted by the pastor. The members of
the family and tbeir many friends were
present to pay last respects to the mem
cry if !!:s dspsrteJ. liitormen took
place iu the Masonic cemetery. Her
ha'hand and several children mourn
her low. Mrs. Day waa held in high es
teem io the community for her quiet,
yet di ided Cbristain character, and her
words to her neighbors and family dor
ing the few days previous to her depar
ture, indicate that as she lived so she de
parted. She was a member of the M,
K. Cburcb for more than $3 years.

The Blue River nines.
George A. Dyson, of Brownsville, is in
receipt of a letter from J. E. McCanley,
now at Blue river, which says: "Mr.
Chauucey Dale is now in Portland, or
ganizing a stock company to work tbe
old Exceleior mine. He shipped out 300
pounds of ore from bis seven-foot ledge,
to Professor Price, at San Francisco, and
had tbe same worked by the free milling
process, aod it yielded at the rate of
$51 75 in gold per ton. Now, when $10
ore would pay a profit in this camp,
what will the above bay? Tbe new
company expect to bave theit stock ail
takeu by responsible parlies tbis winter.
and in ibe rpring they will be prepared
to put in a mill and commence work on a
large scale, and thus be the pioneers is
