THE GREAT CRIME OF 1806.
Since the free silver coinage agita
tion begau and the people have
talked, written and published tons of
matter about silver and its coinage,
the advocates of free and unlimited
coinage have been incessant in their
denunciation of "the great crime of
1873" and "demonetization of sil
ver." That "great crime" consisted
in the representatives of the people
passing an act codifying all previous
laws relating to coinage, and, in the
iist of coins, omitted, or, as it is
sometimes said dropped, but by the
free silver advocates demonetized,
the silver dollar. They adopted this
latter term probably because it is a
long word and can be used indefinite
ly to indicate the demonetization of
silver entirely; which has never been
done. Silver has been coined con
tinuously from the establishment of
the mint down to the present time.
lias anj' body ever heard a free sil
ver advocate in speech or in print
-denounce Thomas Jefferson for dis
continuing the coinage of silver dol
lars in 1896, inquires an exchange?
tinder that order not a single silver
dollar was coined for thirty-four
years. That order iras issued, not
by any special authority of an act of
v.... 1. -. A 1 : - .- C 1T T r
ferson, through James Madison, his
secretary of state.
Now, it is a pertinent question to
sk those who prate of "the great
-crime of 1873," whether that act was
any greater crime than that of Mr.
Jefferson in 1 806 ? Jefferson and
Madison were distinguished among
the most able statesmen of the revo
lutionary fathers, the, latter having
been prominent among the framers
of the. constitution of the nation.
Think you that Jefferson and Madi
son had a suspicion they had com:
nutted a great crime against the peo
ple and their country, and that pos
terity would, when an act . was law
fully passed by the representatives in
congress effecting the same thing
which had been done 67 years before,
declare that' act "the great crime of
the century!" .
If that act was a-great crime in
1873 it was no less a crime in 1806.
and those sterling patriots and states
men are more deserving denuncia
tions because they set a precedent
which congress followed. '
It is also remarkable and worthy
of the attention of all who delight in
anathematizing those who voted for
that act as criminals, that during the
REPUBLICAN
78 Second Street.
ensuing 34 years following the order
of Mr. Jefferson's secretary discon
tinuing the coinage of silver dollars,
in all the discussions in congress on
the subject of coinage, hot one in
congress or out of congress, is known
to have denounce.! that act as a
"great crime " or even " objected to
it. It caused no popular stoira to
sweep over the country demanding
the remonetization and coinage of
the neglected silver dollar to disturb
the stability of business and the
peace of the people. Panics came
and went during all that period of 34
years and nobody attributed them
and their attending distress to any
great crime which Mr. Jefferson had
committed by his order stopping the
! coinage of the silver dollar,' which
his successors failed to discover.
Twenty-three years after the pass
age of the act of 1 873, people speak
glibly of the "great crime" who have
little conception of the ''crime" of
which they prate, or if they do it is
for purposes of deception for selfish
motives. They have neither the in
terest of truth or the people in view.
Millions have grown into manhood
since 1873 and millions who have at
tained that rge were then unborn ;
these have little or no true personal
understanding of the condition of the
country when the "great crime" was
committed.

CONSTIPATION
SHOULD net be regarded as
a trifling ailment in fact, nature
demands ihe titmos; 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.

The disturbance cf the stomach, arising from the

this constitutes what is popularly known as Sick
