result of ttie recent state election and

MACON'S OWN’ DAV.
over-value silver. The second ratio of
10 to 1 erred In the other direct.ou. and
undervalued silver. In consequence of
' this mistake, the currency of tbe conn-
try was never truly and fully bimet
allic. During most?of tile long puled
from the opening of the mints In 1872
unlit tbe Bland law went Into opera
tlon In 1878, very little silver was
coined, comparatively speaking; of
the dollars, only eight millions; of frac
tional stiver, a much larger sum, but
still s veiy small quantity compared
with the needs of the country for
money. During the same period, the
coinage of gold was comparatively
large, because, as compared with silver,
gold Was over-valued.
It is now being Insisted that the
principles which guided all former leg
islators in tlxlng the rst.o of coinage
shall be abandoned In this country;
that tbe experience which shows that
even very slight errors were sufficient
to keep on* metal or the other away
from tbe mints shall be ignored, and
the Dree coinage of both metals re
sumed at the. ratio which makes the
dollar of one metal twice as valuable
as the dollar of the other. The iegls-
lators. who first authorized the coining
of gold and silver money In this coun
try would have been astounded by such
a proposition. It never occurred to
them, to sit probability, that tbe gov
ernment, by its stamp, could give value
to Cltbqr gold or silver, and they re
garded that atamp as merely- a cert-.U-
cate of the weight and Oneness of the
coin. Their Idea* were tbe same which
lj»d ton entertained for centuries and
had. grown out of the experience of
mankind. I* It safe for this country
to act on the presumption that all ot
the experience of mankind ha* taught
only a false lesson (n finance; that as
a matter of foot tho government, by
Its atamp, can create values, can make
n plcco of metal worth fifty ceuts In
gold worth one dollar in that metal
by merely making It ita well as the gold
dollar legal tender? Is the country
ready .to enter upon a series of experi
ments to' determine whether a few
modern theorists are right In their ex
periences, or the experience of all man
kind to the contrary is right?
