The pt-rtoua inaklujf the cLarjf are either Ignorant or inen daclom." This U nearly word for word Joho bhtroian't ituteaierit, and it hiw Ixfn met and demolished a thousand tlmeH, yet like all uu- truth it Hprlnjfi oU rvul. With your peruilinion I will nail it against the Wall 8Kin. Hj.ace. and time are wanting to give only a small part of the evidence w hich w ill prove John Hherman a liar, and the gold hug prens either Ignorant or mendacious Johu Hheriinin U the only limn In congress who proft-Mtan that he knew the act of 171 omitted the silver l illar from the coinage, and he seeks to ereitte the liiiir'ii-lii that the fraudulent omisnion was well under htnod hy the senators and repn-rf'iita-tlves who voted for it. He was the first to divulge the felonious fact, hut the ominous signs of disapproval that came up from the people made him attempt to divide the resonsl hility with others. The long silence of Sherman and the general silence alsHit the demonetization of silver, and the change to a single gold standard, goes far to prove the charge that it was done "surreptitiously." Not until the With of March, 1S70, did the chief conspirator of the Jew gold ring divulge the vlllaiious se cret, aud he would not then if it had not Is-cn pulh-d out of him hy Senator Conkting, who put this question to him directly : "Is it true that there is now no American dollar? And if so, Is It true that the effect of this Mil (the act of 1876) to demonetize the trade dollar, is to make half dollars and quarter dollars the only silver coin which can bo used as a lepal tender" (Congress Hecord, Vol. 4, part 3, Forty-fourth Congress, llrst session, page l!0i2.) This was the first notice the people had of this "collossal swindle." Mr. llolnmn in a ftjeoch in the house of representatives, August 5, 187(1, said : "The original hill was simply a bill to organize a bureau of mines and coinage. The bill which Anally INiAsod the house and ultimately be came a law was certainly not read in this house. "It was never considered before the house as it was passed. Up to the time the bill came before this house for final passage, the measure had simply Iss-n one to establish a bureau of mines ; I believe I use the terra correctly now. It came from the committee on coinage, weights and measures. The mibritltuto which finally became a law was never read, and is Huhjcct to the charge made against it by the gentleman from Mis souri (Mr. Illitnd,) that it was passed by the House without a knowledge of its provisions, especially upon that of coinage. (Congressional Rec ord, Vol. 4, part ft, Forty-fourth Congress, first session, page fi237. General (larlield, in a eyh made at Springfield, Ohio, during the fall of 1877, said : "Perhaps I ought to to ashamed to say so, but it is the truth to say that I at that time Is'ing chairman of the committee on appropriations, and having my hands over-full (lur ing all this time w ith work, I never read 'the bill. I took it (i!i the faith of a prominent Democrat and a prominent Itcpublican, and I do not know that 1 voted at all. There was no call of the yeas and nays and no body piNstd that bill that I know of." Senator Allison, on February lsTs.iu the senate said : "Hut when the secret history of this bill of I h7 J comes to be told, it will disclose the fact that the house of representatives intended to coin Itoth gold and silver, and Intended to phuv both metals upon the French relation instead of on our own, which was the true scieutitlu position witli referotve to Mil -il'-Joct ill 1873, bill that the bill afterward wa Mc tored.' " Senator llluino said : "I did not iknow auythiug that was iu the bill at all. As 1 have be fore said, little was known or cared on the subject." Mr. Hright, of Tennessee, said of the law : "It passed by fraud In the house, never having been printed in ad vance, being a substitute for the printed bill, never having been rd at the clerk's desk, the leading hav ing lieon dispense! with by an Im pression that the bill made no ma terial alteration in the coinage laws; it was passed without discussion, debate being cut off by operation of the previous question. It was passed, to my certain Information, under auch circumstances that the fraud escajted the attention of some of the most watchful as well as Uie blest statesmen in congrcos at that lime. Ay, sir, It was a fraud 'that smells to heaven.' It was a fraud that will stjnk In Uie'noso of posterity, and for which some person must give account In the day of ret ribution." (Iteeord, Vol. 7, part 1, aeond session, Forty-fifth Congress, page 584.) Senator Beck, io the senate, Janu ary 10, 1874, said! "It (the bill demonetizing ailver) never was understood by either house of congress. I nay It with full knowledge of the facts. No news paper reporter and they are the most vigilant men I ever ww In ob taining information discovered that It had been done." (Ibid, page 260.) Mr. Thurnian aaid t "I caunot say what took pl-e ii the house, but I know when the it was ending in the senate, w thought it was simply a bill to re ¬ form the mint, regulate coinage, an fix up one thing and another, and there is not a single man In the sen ate, I think, unless a member of the committee from which the bill came, who hud the alightest idea that It a uneven a squint toward detnonetl zution." Judge Kelly, of Pennsylvania, who was chairman of the coinage coiiirnlUeeof the houe in 17:!, did not know that the bill demonetized silver, though he reported the bill. Here Ls what he said May 10, 1879. "All I can say Is that the commit tee on coinage, weights and ineas ures, who reported the original bill, were faithful aud able, and scanned its provisions closely, that as their organ I reported it, that it contained provisions for both the standard sil ver dollar and the trade dollar. Never having heard until a long time after its enactment Into law ol the substitution in the senate of the section which dropped the standard dollar, I profess to know nothing of its hitory, but I am prcimrcd to say that in all the legislation of this country, there is no mystery equal to the demonetization of the stand ard silver dollar of the I'ultod States. I have never found a man who could tell just how it came alout or why. (Congressional Iteeord, Vol. 9, part 1, Forty -sixth congress, first session, page 1231.) Dut the most striking evidence of the ignorance of the effect of the coinage act of 1873, Is the fact that President Grant, who signed .it, had no knowledge that the silver dollar was dropped from the list of coins to be minted. On January 14, 1875, the date that he signed th resump tion act, he sent a seclal message lo cougreaa advising the establishment of three more mints at Chicago, St. IxjuIs, and Omaha, to coin silver dollars to provide for resumption ol specie payments. In this message he said : "With the present facilities for coinage, it would take a period prob ably beyond that fixed by law, for final specie resumption to coin the silver necessary to transact the busi ness of the country." The act contain! external evidence that it was doctored and fraudulent. Section 18 of the bill, which of course was acted on after unction 15, which demonetized the silver dollar, con tained the following provision : "And on the reverse of the silver dollar, half dollar, quarter dollar aud dime, resiectiveJy, there shall be Inscribed the weight and fineness of the coins," etc. What was the use of providing for an in scription on the silver dollar, when the dollar was abolished by the law I The monetary commission of 1870, made up of Republicans, and Demo crats says : "The act (of 1873) when passed, was not read except by title, and it is notorious that this transcendent change in the money system of the country, affecting the most vital Int erests, was carried through without the knowledge or observation of the country. It was neither demanded by the resolutions of public meetings or )olltical conventions, nor as kit) tor in petitions from the cople. As pajMT money was the actual curren cy of the country at the time, a coin age act was not likely to attract general attention. In its relation to the question of a single or double standard, it was little discussed in the house, and not at all in the sen ate. The press of the country was entirely unobservant or silent when it was pending, and when it was passed, and for more than three years afterward. If It had been gen erally known that any such vital question as the demonetization of silver was lurking in the bill, it would have aroused the most wide spreading discussion throughout the country, as is shown upon the pres ent delude Umii remouetizing it, which Ls inly the nana) question re versed, fori hkh, it is apparent, Vill diMuinate all other public ques tion aatil it ia Mttlcd." J4iii iUwvnm laht up the bill in tie ti, Decemlicr li, 1872. In ninaj kit preliminary state ment I (Mibttcly lied, for when he X qurrttoucd as to whether it lines' ay chaagws he said : "Thii bill has In sulistance passed both Iiousm, enccptiag that the senate bill enlarged and Increased the salaries of otnceM," ha objected to the bill being prlatad, m it would create expense, and asfced the senate to take his ord for what it contained. The bill pm, being only read by title. It failed in the house and went to a conference committtee of both hourtf, and was reported back, and was finally passed, February, 1873. It was a substitute Tor the original bull and left out the silver dollar. There Was no demand for the law and no reason for it. There was neither silver nor gold In tha circula tion at that time. Hut the Jew Shy locks of Europe who demonetized silver In Great Britain in 1816, and gold in Germany in 1857, and then silver In 1871, for the avowed pur pose as they boldly said to increase the value of bond and incomes, de manded It, and It was done. The Jew hhylock of Europe scut a Jew banker named Ernest fSeyd over here from England to "influence" congro to strike down silver, for our gold production was decreasing and our silver production was Increas ing and they w anted their bonds to In-cree-e Invalue by cutting off half thf money supply. Here ia a little ex'r:e-t fr mi tne Banker's Magazine o. August, H73, which gives the mi. it in the cocoanut: 'In H73, silver being demone tized In Grrmuiiy, England and Hol land, a capital of 100,000 (tVJOO.WW) was raised, and Ernest Seyd of lyn don, was sent to this country with this fund as the agent of foreign bondholders, to effect the same or Ject." And while the bill was pending In the bouse iu April It), 172, Mr. Hooper, who had charge of It, aald; "The bill was prepared two years ago and has been submitted to care ful aud deliberate examination. It has the approval of all the mint experts and sanction of the secretary of the treasury. Ernest Heyd, of Loudon, a distinguished writer and bullionist, who Is now here and has given great attention to the subject of mints and coinage, after examina tion of the bill made various sensible suggestions which the committee accepted." IKiubtless Mr. Seyd made some "sensible suggestions" which were not incorporated in the bill. This tfuo.iXK) was the atuff that "hypno tized" congress, to use Senator Ingall's noted expression. The bill nor the Bankers' Journal does not say how much of the Jew's money John Sherman got, but If we may judge from the activity lie displayed In pushing Seyd's bill lie got his breeches pockets full. But the act of 1873 did not demon etize the silver dollar, but did sus- wnd its coinage. Tho silver dollars already In circulation continued to lj a full tender. But it was demon etized by the revision of 1874. In tho revision of the statutes in 1874 section ?.Vio of tho revised statutes is made to say : "The sliver coins of the United States shall bo a legal tender at their nominal value for any amount not exceeding five dollars In any one payment.' In thia section all silver coins are demonetized, while the act of 1873, us)n which this revision of 1874 was predicted demonetized only such coins as were mentioned In that act, to-wit : The trade dollar, half-dollar, quarter-dollar and dime. The com mittee had no authority to amend or change the coinage laws Ln the re vision. It was their allotted business simply to eodlfy the laws on coinage. In fact members of the coznmlttce disclaimed that, they hud made any change. When the committee was asked the question if they had made any chungo In existing law In the revision, Mr. Poland, the chairman of the committee who had the revis ion bill in charge, said : "As my friend from Massachu setts (Mr. Butler) has said, the com mittee have endeavored to have this revision a perfect reflex of the existing national statute. The committee haw endeavored to eliminate from this everything that savors of change In the slightest degree In the exisf Ing statute." Notwithstanding these assurances and the fact that the atatutc given to that committee for revision con tained the distinct provision that the silver dollar of 412) grains should be one of the silver coins of the United State, and that It should be a full legal tender for any amount, the silver dollar was. eliminated from the statutes. The monetary commission of 187C says, regarding this aoction (358b) that demonetized the silver dollar: "No law waa ever assed by con gress of which tb is languago can be considered a revision. The te vised statutes were enacted In hulk. They "were intended to be a revision merely of the existing laws without change or introduction of new matter, and congresn wan assured by its commit tee on revr-doit, that no new matter had been Introduced Into them. It was. not possible for the members of the eoninaitteo to have personally verified the exact accuracy of the revision. They must nifessarily have relied upon assurances given to them by tho js'rsons actually en gaged in the work. Whoever may bo responsible; for this error in the revised statuto-t, the ancient money of the country, instead of being In tentionally legislated out of exist ence by congnws, was revised out of existence." Hero I resU 1 have proved by witnesseM of the facts, whose testi mony Is -uidmpeni'hable, that the demonetisation of the silver dollar and the changing of the standard was not discussed in congress, was not undvstood by that body, was not dlsruxsed by the press and was not known by tho aople. I chal lenge rclmttal. Bold assertions won't wve. I demand radical and inexpugnable facts. II. B. Iavk. HUlsboro, August 13, 1893. Frankfort, N. Y., Dec. 28, 1891.

In the Ixdhi tsutNT' Issue of August 18th appeared an article by an able ewayest on "Mitchell's Moonshine." I little expected to cross swords with so able a iM-ientinc cult, when I commenced the pre S"ntation of the cometR1 relation. But it isulways the unc.-ctcl ihct surprises us most. Another m:i'tr of surprint; was the ridicule ami j rs Of one I deemed friendly to scicntillc r"sarch. I never likwd a bully, and as Sir Isaac has for many years hrld the champion's belt as wiitiMtlc knocker, I, therefore, formed a dis taste for the theory advanced by him. One rcasou why the people have been deceived so loug is 0ecuu-e there H some truth ln his philosophy. The lamented Lincoln Is credited with having said "you may fool some people some of the time," but "you can't fool all the eopl all the time." My friend, ln his reverance for the Newtoulan theory, reminds me of a large, overgrown boy who has been frequently flogged by his more wirey companions, and who always looks up to a bully whether right or wrong. I le studied Newton when a boy, found him too tough to handle then, and ln later years awkurd-boy like he is still afraid to tackle the bully or his theory. The cometlc theory of tho produc tion of worlds, is not, as my friend suppose, the "nebular hypothesis," as presented under the Newtonian theory, but it requires the action of a law not treated upon by Sir Isaac, or understood by his followers. It is, however, a theory generally accepted by the best astronomers of today. It is an Improvement upon tho "nebular hyjKithesis." There Is a cause for every effect. It is a well established principle in natural philosophy that a force acting upon a body, in motion or at rest, produce the sumo effect whether It acts alone or with other forces. If a cannon ball be thrown horizontally it will- fall Just as fast and strike the ground Just as soon as if dropped to tho ground from the cannon's mouth. If this be true and all planetary bodies are endowed with gravitating power, then there must bo a force that overcomes the influence of gravitation and prevents a crash of worlds. When God created tho Earth He did not make it out of nothing, neither did He fling this mighty orb out into the everlasting depths of space without a law to gov ern it. If, as the Newtonion defend er suggests, tho motion that this Earth received UK)ii creation is the only force that Is or has been applied then the Earth is moving in a straight line and not In an eliptical orbit. There is a reelling force in nature. When I use tho word repelling, I mean, driving back, or "centrifugal fore'," not "repulsion" this latter term is used only ln physics to repre sent force. The term limy ls applied to a state of existence. The "repul sion" of tho Newtonian theory Is caused by a distaste for the study of the theory. Centrifugal force acts upon planetary Isxlies and causes them to recede one from the other. It is not tho projectile force which produces the eccentric orbits of Mer cury and tho comets, but a natural law and when thoroughly understood, may and will no doubt be made use of as a mechanical principle despite the ridicule of thoughless persons or the critical darts of the sophist. 1 saw a buloon go up from the earth. I asked, what causes it to rise? The ariel nivlgator explained that he bad overcome the ower of gravitation by creating a substance lighter than air. The baloon would float at a certain distance -the height at which gravity overcomes the applied force forever If there was nothing to cause it to become subject to the law of gravity again. After a time, if earth currents of wind did not affect the baloon, it would be swept out over the earths equator, and would revolve around the earth from west to east the same as the moon. Uon this principle in mechanics, at the Antwerp exK sition in 1894 will lie exhibited an air castle capable of holding up HI tons burden, to and from which visiters will bo carried in baloons. One hundred and fifty ersonl may be accommodated in this air castle at a time. To prevent Its leaving the Antwerp exposition it will l anchored with four strong cables intended to assist gravitation In her functions. 1 read in the first chapter of Genesis that tho first thing created was light. A whole day's work, "anil God saw the light that it was good and the evening and the morning wera the first day." Now if light is an entity may it not act as a resisting medium or (Miwer to keep the earth nt certain distance from the sun? May it not lie the centrifugal faste, SjicH's Olmstcad has it "naftaa in a curve is always the eW4 of wo wcc. The inflnit4Hlmal cwiiait of the p'rojiH'tile force whk m-ta in opw sitlon to the centrlfugi f(Ma." But I want to remark that civitrifugal for-e, if not a third force, may as well be considered the Infinitesimal component of the centrifugal force, as the Infinitesimal component of the projectile. I desire to move a heavy load I may hitch on several teams of horses, several yoke of oxen and a baloon. By the combined force of the horses, oxen and baloon the weight may be moved. It was a combination of the three forces or powers that did the work. The earth may bo moved through space with one single force, or w ith a dual force or with a trinty of forces. 1 prefer to believe the hitter and that sunlight Is the infinitesimal compon ent or centrifugal force which holds the heavenly bodies in their positon.
