ARE THE FIGURES WRONG
Secretary Gage's recent report
estimated at G34,G50,733 the anio ml
of gold coin in circulation in the
United States on Nov. 1, 1809.
But these figures have been chal
lenged by Professor Faulkner, and
the Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune says "Mipt Director
Roberts seems to have been impressed
by Professor Faulkner's statements,
and is going to find out whether there
has been a Haw in the customary
manner of calculating the amount of
gold in the country.
"What troubles the mint diiector,"
sajs the Tribune, "is that while he
knows the whereabouts of the greater
part of the gold coined in this coun
try since 1870, as large a portion of
it as 6300,000,000 has eluded his
search." That is to say, the gold in
circulation may be only about 300,.
000,000, instead of the amount here
tofore estimated by the treasury
officials.
It develops that for more than
twenty years the mint officials have
teen "guessing" at the quantity of
gold coin annually melted down for
use in the aits, and a deep suspicion
exists that their guessing has been
wide of the truth.
"Hence, 20,000 circulars are to be
sent out to firms using gold in the
arts, asking them to say how much
gold coin tlcy have melted down
during the present year. If their
replies indicate nn annual cousump. '
lion of, say, 10,000,000, instead of'
$1,500,000, then the director of the I
mint will know where a gootl part of
his mising 300,000,000 has gone,
and he will have to revise and cut
down his estimate ot the amount of
gold in circulation. Hut if the re
plies show that the million and one
L alf guess is about right, then the
mystery as to the whereabouts of
that 300,000,000 of gold coin will
be darker than ever."
Should this burmiso prove true,
nnd if it be found that little move
than 300,000,000 of gold coin is
actually in circulation or rather in
the hr.nds of the banks and the
people it would follow that the per
capita circulation of gold would bo
little more than 1. It should be
remembered that this question is not
Taised by advocates of freo silver,
but by friends and supporters of th
single gold standard.
A literary society up at The Dalles
Las debated the sixleen-to-onc ques
tion, resulting in a decision against
freo silver coinage. There has been
good change up in the bunch grass
section of Oregon. In 1802 tho
eueep owners up tbero voted tho
Democratic ticket, because Bryan
and his confreres had informed them
that free trade in wool would bo
-
goo.l for them. They got free trade
in wool, and got their fill of it. For
four years they were ashametV to
look a sheep in tho face. Now the
arc extremely wary of any promise
made to them by Bryan and hisj
'IMim. limn cntll'nfl PVOII 1111
free silver. Eastern Oregon is pros
perous. The calamity howlers have
nearly all left or been cured; the
goose hangs high, and the sheep grow
fat on the succulent bunchgrass.
So there is no longer any hope for
Democracy up there; at least not for
the Bryan kind of Democracy.

A startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subject, Is narrated by '.him as follows:
"1 was in a most dreadful condition. My
skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually in back
and sides, no appetite gradually crow
inp weaker day by day. Three physi
cians had given me up. Fortunately, a
triend advised 'Electric Bitters' ; and to !
my great joy and surprise, the first
bottle made a decided improvement. I
continued their use forthtee weeks, and
am now a well man. I know they saved
my life, and robbed the grave of another
victim." No onu ehouhlfitil to trv them.
