THE MONEY QUESTION.
Nearly everybody is discussing the
money question and just now it ap¬
pears to be attracting more attention
than all other public issues cornbin
ed. In speaking of this in the pres
ence of an Atlanta Constitution re¬
porter Captain J. M. Pace, of Cov¬
ington. who believes in tbe “further
coinage of silver,” but does not favor
“the free and unlimited 16 to 1” ex¬
periment by this government alone,
said : “You see to most people the
tariff was an abstruse problem which
they couldn’t grasp. It was one they
could talk of theoretically but the
practical effect upon themselves they
couldn’t see so easily. With the
money question it is different. That
is a question in which every man is
vitally interested. He feels that
something is wrong from the way he
has been affected and he is anxious
to know what it is ; hence his study
and his interest.”
Col. Ham, of Gainsville, who had
returned from a tour through the
west, was present, and in reply said :
“Yes, I presume that is the reason.
There is no question about the fact
that the masses are more deeply in
terested in this financial question
than they ever have been in any oth
er ; and that being the case, the talk
of eliminating that issue from the
next campaign is the sheerest non¬
sense. The whole west is for free
silver and the vote of that section is
going to the candidate who repres
ents that idea.”
The Enterprise ceased to discuss
the silver question sometime ago, be¬
cause it felt satisfied that a large ele
meet in the south and west, regard¬
less of former political affiliations,
were determined to force this gov¬
ernment to a trial of the dangerous
experiment of “the free anil unlimi¬
ted coinage of silver at a ratio of 18
to 1.” While, like Captain Pace, we
favor “the further coinage of silver,’
yet we cannot advocate the unlimited
coinage, because we fear that such a
policy would run gold and national
bank notes to a premium and place
this country on a single standard sil¬
ver basis. We need more money,
move silver, if you please, but every
dollar in circulation should be as
good as every other dollar, anywhere
and everywhere With the free, tbe
unlimited coinage of silver, the Uni
ted States might keep “silver on a
parity with gold,” but we seriously
doubt it, aud yet, it appears that a
majority of the voters iti the south
aud west have made up their minds
to support no man for office who re
fuses to commit himself to the “free
coinage of silver.”
The latest free silver argument has
been advanced by a preacher at Bo
ise, Idaho. He declares that no man
cau go to heaven who does not be¬
lieve in free silver and that it is
“fust as essential to do that as to
believe in the Son of Cod.” That
old fellow ought to apply for an ed
itorial position on some free coinage
paper, for his remarks on the sub
ject is in keeping with the argumeuts
of some of our Georgia silverite-,.

A little girl in Mexico, when ask¬

Looked into her face and said, '‘I do
not belong to him anyhow, I have
given myself to Jems.”
It was will) pleasuie that we learn¬
ed, at our last meeting, that out of
nine missionaries sent by the Wo
man’s Board of the North Georgia
Conference, that one-third went from
the Oxford District; still, think how
little wj have done compared to the
needs and demands of the heathen.

Tiie church missionary society of
the Church of England has the Jar
gest income of any missionary or¬
ganization in the world, amounting
to more than $1 250 000 annually.
For the last year it reports 423 sta
tions, 339 ordained missionaries, over
500 unordained workers and nearly
600 native preachers, teachers and
helpers. There were nearly 4 000
conversions for the year.—Alabama
Christian Advocate.
Large volumes on etiquette are
written and carefully studied, espe
cially by the girls in Japan. They
teach how many steps must be taken
into the room before the first bow is
made ; how many bows shall then fol¬
lows (this depends on the relative
tank of the parties); how the tea
cup must be held and passed ; how
many sips must be taken ; how the
feet of the men and women must be
differently placed on the flooi as the
individual sits upon them ; how in
walking the women must turn their
toes iu, the men turn theirs out, etc
etc , minute directions being given
for all the possible emergences of
life. A rule which confused us at
first was one directing that all food
offered must be accepted. Quanti
ties of cake and sandwiches passed
among eighty aud ninety guests van¬
ished with unheard of rapidity. Each
tried to outdo his neighbor in polite¬
ness, and the deep sleeves, used as
1 lockets, held enormous quantities.
When at Iasi, a man was overheard
asking whether they were expected
to carry cup and saucer home, we
grew alarmed, and in after entertain¬
ments each guest received only as
much as he was expected to keep.
Among themselves, tea and cake are
invariably offered to a caller. A few
sips of the tea must be taken, how¬
ever bitter it is. and after a small
piece of the cake lias been broken
off and eaten, the remainder is care¬
fully folded iu a soft piece of white
paper, and carried home.—Woman’s

“ Castoria is the best remedy for children of
which 1 am acquainted. I hope tbo day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in¬
stead of the rariousquack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves.”
