■m' i"H .if t »a irj r:i but they never could pro cure the maximum coinage authorized under the Biand-Allison a.-t.nor an ex ecutive enJorcementfeot’ the plain letter of the Sherm in law. At any rate the gold standard was not established bylaw when the present administration as- ; sumed office. Those nearest the administration say that our present stock of silver coin is not demonetized, but further coinage suspended under the Presidents con struction of the Sherman Law, He holding that the way to redeem the promise of parity is to relinquish the option of its treasurer to redeem in either m •! acknowledge the debase ment of silver and knock itdowu at the demand of speculators, who raid the treasury for gold and as the classes whom Mr. Cleveland regards as the people want no more silver, he thinks enough ha s been coined and declines to execute that part of the Shermin ■ law which plainly authorizes coinage i of the semorage and enough of the bid- | lion, from time to time, to redeem the! notes issued for its purchase. If thesingle gold standard exists it is due. to execu tive construction and Ins no foundation in statute. The pres:dent's determined efforts to have the expiring congress y authorize gold bonds, betrayed some misgivings in his own mind as to the gold standard being either accomplish ed or settled. In 1592 the people out raged at the republican c instr iction of the Sherman law, more loudly than ever demanded free coinage. Both great parties recognized that a major- ! ity of the .American people desired bi -! metalism, by propitiating that iem ind •in their platform; and even pop u lism so garnished the outlandish con glomeration of schemes in their screed, by the one saving article in favor of bi metalism as to secure a million votes. , Honest demoerats are madder.than any body, because they feel that they have been betrayed, and as they respond at the ballot box to the administration campaign of education, the single gold standard will look decidedly unsettled. If the coinage is restored at the ra tio of 16 to 1, will we not have two va rieties of silver money? And will the government not be oound to in , .gold the silver coined under the pur- ! Chasing acts? We would have three issues of silver, one coined under the Bland Allison act, one under the Sherman law and one ' under the people's law of free and . unlimited coninage, but there would be no difference between them. Al- , ways determined since 1873, ,on final ly restoring free coinage, the dem- : oerats drove out the sb ort lived bastard I trade dollar and inboth compromise act;, they secured their contention for the i standard dollar which has not been changed since Jefferson reccominendeu it and congress adopted it as the unit of value. Under the two purchasing acts it is a full legal tender, and will need no redemption from go d, when free coinage is resumed, but will nat urally fall right into line and enjoy ali the benefits and privileges promised by resored coinage to what little silver in sight and I hope millions of silver yet unmined. For ' purpose of intimidation we are told the rich hold the g-old and gold certifi cates, while the currency left in of the hands of the common people is silver and silver certificates. This assortiment of the money is I effected by the sagaeit of the i monied interest in apprehension of free coinage which they predict will result in fifty cent silver dollars. Thfe idea was wiien the crash came, the silver and its representatives would be found, in the hands of the poor folks and the monied men escape harm . Under such circumstands.

Is the income tax a democratic doc tiine? And was the last decision of the supreme court on constitutional grounds? The national platform did not prom ise an income tax. Democracy does not object to statet taxation of incomes, but a federal income tax is not sus j tained by Democratic construction of j the constitution. It is not democrat ic prescription for ills affleting the body politic to divide out after for tunes are made. If unequal conditions i unduly operate to enrich sections and classes, the constitutional remedy is to l substitute equitable conditions so that i all may have a fair chance to accumi i late what they can and enjoy what j they accumilate. In England a Nation al income tax encounters no state lines and constitutional safeguards reserv ing state rights and limiting central power. The states, under our system should really do most of the governing, and ought te have full taxing- powers to raise necessary revenues. Uncon stitutional taxation is not justified by the fact that the Federal government has assumed powers and jurisdiction never undertaken or dreamed of before, making administration more expensive. Neither is such fact creditible to our country nor in exemplification of the principles of our system. We should resist paternalism, whether proposed by plutocrats or populits. The govern ment coula greatly reduce its necessi ty for revenue by renouncing the costly powers, usurped, anil returning to a re- I cognition of the limited scope and func tions which its creation contemplated.

Mr. Dobbs has been deaf in one ear for about thirty years, which he at tributed to the war, as he was surrounded several times. Lately his deafness troubled .him a great deal and he bought a rubber syringe and tried to relieve it. In a few days he took from his ear a slate pencil about half an inch long which he showed to The Times. He said he felt much relieved and hears as well as he ever did. He said Sunday w T hen he went to church the singing sounded so loud that it reminded him of a fast running freight train.
