The Republican in its last issue calls our attention to some of the resolutions adopted by the executive committee of the State Alliance, at its recent meeting in Indianapolis. Brother, those resolutions are all right, right because the Pilot people made them. This executive board, to whose resolutions you refer, is composed of three members, two of whom, the president and secretary, are stockholders in the Piot Publishing Co. The secretary of this state board controls more stock in tbe Pilot company than any two men in it, and to him, perhaps, more than to any other one man belongs the honor of establishing our paper here. Oh yes, the resolutions are all ”0. K.” They could not be otherwise, coining from the source they do. Why did you not print all of them? How does the one demanding the stamping of notes by the assessor strike you? Please give us your opinion of this one in next week’s issue.

The Republican is still comparing and contrasting the figures of our late election with those of former elections, and from its investigations seems to get a deal of comfort and a world of information. To show that the Peoples'party, in this county, drew more from the Republicans than from the Democrats, it compares the election of 1888 with 1892 and learns that 230 Republicans to 100 Democrats and 12 Prohibitionsists joined the ranks of the calamity howlers. To show that its party is healthy, growing and satisfied, it compares the vote of 189'.Twith 1892 and finds a Republican gain •of 15 per cent. In spite of this 15 per cent increase somehow Mr. Republican, while your majorities, in 1890, ranged-froin 318 down to 122, this year they range from 42 down to 17 minus. If your 15 percent. Republican gain let the People's man into the recorder's office.brought your majorities of 318 to 122 down to 42 to 17, you had better get the boy who figured the cat . out of the well. *to show you where another 15 per cent, gain will put your party. The first coins issued from the V. S. mint were the copper cent uud half cent. A cent of this

coinage contained 260 grains of pure copper. These coins were made under the law of 1792. In 1857 a new coinage law made a one-cent coin composed of 88 parts copper and 12 parts nickel, to take the place of the pure copper. coins of 1792. These coins were made a legal tender though they were of less weight, and of less commercial value than 'the ones they supplanted. In 1864, another coinage act was pased which gave us a new one-cent and two-cent piece; the cent weighing 48 grains, 95 parts copper and: s'' parts tin or zinc. Now, one hundred of these, our last one-cent pieces, contain 480 grains, while one hundred of our first ones contained 26,000 grains, yet the law made them of the same money value. In 1882 a pound of these metals, which compose this one and twocent pieces, W’as worth twenty cents and a pound of it would make 160 one-cent pieces, worth $1.60. Here we have 20 cents worth of material changed into $1.60 legal tender value and all done by an act of congress. Here is 20 cents worth of intrinsic value and 140 cents worth of “fiat” value. If congress has the power, through the use of the money stamp of the government, to raise the value of a pound of metal this way has it not the power to raise the value of any other- material upon which it chooses to impress the government’s money stamp? If government can make $1.40 out of nothing, can it not, does it not, really make millions out of nothing? Money is a measure of value, a medium of exchange created by law, hence a nsar creature of law. It is not intrinsic value that makes money, it is not for the intrinsic worth of that piece of paper or that lump of metal that we are willing to exchange oui- labor, but it is for the legal value of the “stuff” we call money that we are all willing to work.

Gold.

In the debate in the United State senate, February 15, 1878, on the Bland silver bill, Mr. Ingftlls, who voted for the bill, said of the gold basis: “No people in a great emergency ever found a faithful ally in gold. It is the most cowardly and treacherous of all metals. It makes no treaty it does not break. It has no friends it does not sooner or later betray. Armies and nations are not maintained by gold. In times of panic and calamity, shipwreck and disaster, it becomes the agent and minister of ruin. No nation ever fought a great war by the aid of gold. On the contrary, in the crisis of the greatest peril, it becomes an enemy more potent than the foe in the field; but when the battle is won and peace has been secured, gold reappears and claim the fruits of victory. In oiir own civil war it is doubtful if the gold of New York and London did not work us greater injury than the powder and lead and iron of the rebels,. It was the most invincible enemy of the public credit. Gold never paid no soldier or sailor: It was worth most when our fortunes were the lowest. Every defeat gave its increased value. It was an open alliance with our enemies the world over, and all its energies were evoked for our destruction. But as usual, when danger had been averted and the victory secured, gold swaggered to the front and secured supremacy.”
