"A director of the I'nited State;

Why should a director of the
United States ndnt be above using
b expression "free coinage of both

thr9e? "Free coinage" U an ex
pression meaning simply the coin

"Then is not in the world but little
abore four billions of gold, not
enough to furnish1 -10 percent of
money on which to do the business
of the world. And if the other
anooey metal silver, say five bill-
t ions, were admitted by the gold
Crabbers to free ' coinage, the same
as jrold, the world wonld still "be
hort, say 75 pcroent of coin to
answer the demand for the metal
anoney. we admit mere is no
och thin now as free coinage of;
both metals in the United States.
And herein lies the trouble. We
Lave bee a trying to loose the grasp
of Great BiiUin ar.d Wall street,!
upon the American people since!
1873 and break the coiner they
laave upon gold, but without avail.

Siaee ahuitiug down the mints
of the United States and British
India to Ike coinage of silver, there
. has been no free coinaga of gold
and silver it is true. But prior to
closing those mints there wasjree'

there waa no skulking or hiding

r
Awaot either metaL They went
Along hand in hand bearing each
n equal harden in performing the
.Money functions. Again:
The dearer money disappears
from circulation and from the
Mints.". T ! ; 1 '; j
With free eoinage at 16 to 1, an
ounce of silver would be worth
41.29, while an ounce of gold
would be worth $20. There would
be no "dearer money" in the ba
ainene. Un:le Sam would accept
them for taxes andf dues and pay
them' oat on a n?ar with each
otber. Thia ia simply a scaro of
the goldbng, as empty as it a dis
honest. And again:
' .The other reason no self-re-vnecting
writer on' money should
tae the expression "free coinage of
both meters" is that it is a dis
honest phrase of Bryanism, used
for no other purpose than to con
vey an1 impression that all the
lllveritea want is fair play for
each metal the same privilege for
silver as for gold."
When did "self-respecting writers

phrase "free coinage of both metals"
waa a "dishonest phrase of Bry
Umr We think that phrae or

"self -respecting writers on money"

A banker said to a Broad-Axe
representative the other day that
''when be wished to know anything
about finances he would go to a
man that knew something about
financiering and not to a farmer or
a newspaper . nun for such
knowledge." We prcsumo this
gentleman thinks the men
that
make the money know nothing
about tho use of money after they
make it, but that the fellow who
never produces a dollar like the
banker, is he who is the true
financier. Who is the greater man
in the make up of humanity, lie

Sounds Snakey.
In a letter from Capt Moon of
Cj C now at Manila, tho Captain
says:
"By tho way, we have no silvcr
ites in the iUiilippines; you go
down town with a twenty dollar
gold pieceahd buy a box of fine
cigars at a cost of 11.50 Mexican
(for 50 cigars j and you get in
change $33.cO Mexican or Spanish
silver, never any gold. Imagine
yourself running around the streets
with that silver in your pockets,
but the people here do it, having a
grain bag slung over their shoulders
to carry it in,"
How the Captain can make it
out that there are no silverites in
Manila, when he shows that the
people there go about the streets
j with a grain bag thrown over their
: shoulders to carry their silver in,
we cannot see. We should think
they are silverites with a veno-
ante. '

Now we do not know what tna
Herald will conehide from the
Governor's telegram, but we think
it can see batween lines that he is
simply a light weight politician
and an arrant demagogue whose
partisan predilections render him
wholly unreliable as an impartial
state-men and governor of n great
state. What this Tall Timothy
statesman or tilt Waldo hills can
mean by saying in reply to the
request for information as to how
a call for mors volunteers from
Oregon would ba answered, that
the "present outcry just before a
presidential election is an echo
from tho summer of '(! 1" is beyond
comprehension.
