A DANGEROUS EXPERIMENT.
be the unit of value by our fore
fathers. They endeavored to secure
a unit from the relation of the two
metals based upon their commercial
values. The attempt was not a suc
cess, and ; the experience of years
showed that gold was the better
standard. And so gold has come to
be the recognized standard of value
in all civilized countries. -
The excellent editorial in today s
Oregonian, and one of like merit in
yesterday's Telegram, discusses al
most these same points. -
A correspondent under the nom
tie plume of "Truth seeker" ad
dresses The Chkoxicle as follows:
"You speak of - free silver coinage as
'an experiment.' I have always
been under the impression that si I
ver was coined free until 1873 and
was a decided success, but was de
monetized without the knowledge or
consent, cf the American people by
an act which is sometimes 6 poke n of
as tbe crime of -'73.' I have also
been taught to believe that the silver
dollar was the original unit of value
by which the . gold dollar was meas
ured." '
To put in practical operation the
scheme proposed by the free coinage
advocates would be trying a decided
experiment. Never in the history
of the country has an attempt been
made to coin silver and gold at other
ratios than their commercial values.
The ratios which at various times
have been adopted have all been
based on the relative commercial
values of the two metals, and were
possible only because the fluctuation
in 'value in the early history of the
country was not nearly so great as it
is now. -The free silver men wish to
coin silver at the fixed ratio of 16 to
1, ignoring: altogether the xelative
commercial values which the two
metals possess. This would be An
experiment, and a most dangerous
one at that.
Silver was never coined free to
any extent up to 1873, as the' total
amount of silver dollars coined up to
. that date was only $8,000,000. Vari
ous coins'were used as money, those
of many 'foreign' nations being al
lowed to pass as mediums of ex
change. Since 1873 an amount of
silver has been coined many times as
great as that coined prior to that
date. 4 .
It is but idle talk to refer to the
act of 1 873 as a "great crime." It
is no more of a crime than the act
restoring equitable duties upon tariff
imports under the McKinley admin
istration will be. For three years
preceding- its passage the provisions
of the act were discussed in congress
. and in the press. Its purport was
made known and those who voted
for it did so with a full knowledge
of their action. The crime of '73 is
but a myth, a bugbear used to fright
en unthinking people. i
"Whether or not the silver dollar
was the unit of value a hundred
years ago, has nothing to .do with'
whether, or , not it should occupy
such a position to-lay. Times are
changed wit'i the flight of years,
and what might suffice at one time
will not do. so'fifty years later. But
the silver dollar was not intended to

CONSTIPATION
SHOULD not be regarded as ,
, a trifling ailment in fact, nature
demands the utmost regularity of
the bowels, and any deviation -from
this demand paves the way , -often
to serious danger. It is
quite as necessary to remove
impure accumulations from the
bowels as it is to eat or sleep, and
no health can be expected where
a costive habit of body prevails.
SICK HEADACHE!
This distressing affliction occurs most frequently.
The disturbance of the stomach, arising from the

ordinary distinction of having been the

the 'world's fair, Chicago. v Manufact
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but they were all turned away
under the application of the rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
world's fair authorities in tavor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla .was - in effect as follows.:
"Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is not a patent
medicine. ' It does not belong to the
list of nostrums. It is here on its
merits."
