A Student or the Subject Corrects
Seine Popular lirrors
Omuix , Neb , Doc II---To ) the Editor of
Tub Bui : . Di-metalUsm Is n subject In
which I am greatly Interested , nlthough I
was unable to attend the recent silver convention - I
vontion In St Louts , to which I was an
accredited delegate .
I wish to correct soma details nlthough I
entirely ngrco with the opinion thnt bi
metallism is imposslblo except by the con
currence ana co-opnration of the great com
mercial nations
If this fact were only rocognlzod nnd ad
mitted , much of our nationnl dlflleulty In
dealing with the silver question would bo
obviated Unfortunately the contrary Is
uphold by the largo majority of our politi
cians , especially in the west , and the
theory that wo can "go It nlono"
has also some advocates m the east
Mv present purpose , however , is merely to
call attention to some of tbo errors in con
ticctioii witn the subject
1. The standard silver dollar is full legal
tender , upon n par with gold , although Its
intrinsic value Is fluctuating nnd It is suldom
worth mora than eighty cents It Is , tboro-
fore , a mistake to say that as a legal tender ,
silver in the United States is only good in
amounts of $10.
2. Nothing was done in 1S73 to demonetize
silver further than it had already been de
monetized At that date no silver dollars
had been coined for several decades of
years in fact the entire nuin--
bcr colnod since the foundation
of the government was an insignificant
amount Tbo reason lor this is a curious
ono , considered with the present situation
Tlio rales adopted of 10 to 1 was too high ,
the Fionuh standard of 15 to 1 being then
much nearer the correct llgures , and the
conscnucnco was that the few dollars which
bad been coined at a more " favorable period
weio worth a premium , and were exported ,
leaving practically none In circulation The
revised coin act became a low in this year ,
und the silver dollar was loft out ns nn en
tirely useless uppondage , but subsidiary coin
of tbo present standard which was not
wortli nar then was Included , and was nnd
remained legal tender in tlio sums named
There was no trick nor unfair dealing
nbout the matter the circumstances
clearly explain the omission but the
silver agitators persist in the assertion
for popular clamor , no matter how positively
it is disnrovod If the proceedings and de
bates * in congress , botn in 1873 and at the
previous sosslon , were carefully read when
this co In ago act was under discussion , I do
not believe any ono would over again feel
disposed to repeat this stale charge
3. The present lnwful ratio of sixteen to
ono is fully met In the standard dollar It It
contained grains , as suggested , the ratio ,
instead of being sixteen to ono , would bo
about nineteen to one , and so much nearer
nn honest dollar
It does not contain 112 ; grains of pure
silver , ns stated , but so much standard or
alloyed silver , the pure silver being 371
grains ; whllo the gold dollar contains
23 22-100 grains of pure gold
In view of the present situation of the
silver business , I cant see how the sugges
tion of an additional issue to the extent of
$75,000,000 , would help inattors , even if the
actual value of ttio coin was rnlsod ns pro
. The total of silver coined to Novem-
Eosed
or 1 , 16S9 , is about $313,000,000 , bat of these
many millions only nbout ? uuUi)0.0UU ) are in
actual circulation , although the governmout ,
to oncourngo their use will deliver them to
all parts of the country frea of express
charges , The romaindornro stored in govern
ment warehouses und the warehouse receipts
therefore clrculuto as money just as do legal
tender notes or national bank notes
It is stated tbat the proposed plan
bf increased colnago is similar
to that proposed In Secretary WIndom's re
port Secretary AVindoni's plun is , howovnr ,
entirely different Ho would coin no moro
dollars , but instead thereof would issue cer
tificates based upon the market value of the
silver deposited The plan however , is
shown to bo impracticable as well as of du-
btus legality The ouly suggestion of this
character which I think possesses real morlt
is the plan first proposed by Hon C. N , Jor
dan , late treasurer ot the United States ,
which was to authorize the issue of National
bnuk notes upon a depo&lt of silver It
would bo expecting too much from a republi
can congress nnd administration to believe
they would bo wllllug to adopt a suggestion
coming from a domociutic ndministration
even it It could bo shown to bo both offectlvo
and legal so 1 am incllnod to think wo shall
contiuuo to flounder upon * this question until
tuo great rectifier Time settles thu matter
for us in weal or woo , as the case may be ,

erine Burrus
The circus was continued yesterday morn
ing nt the Hotel Derby Miller , the father of
the child , called nnd opened his little paekago
described In yesterdays Bnc As the
rope with the hangman's ' noose dropped out ,
hit fenturcs grow nshy pale , whllo his knees
shook llko thosa ot a man In mortal fenr
Old man Burrus wits in the room at the time
nnd called him outDo .
"Do you know who sent this rene 1" chat
tered the terror-stricken man
"I no not , " was the response
Well , nro you propnrcd to glvo mo the
child 1" nsked Miller
When train time comes you can have
your child , ns I have agreed , " responded the
old mun "Whllo it breaks my heart to give
her to you , my word is good under nuy cir
cumstances , and 1 proper to keep it "
"AH right , " responded Miller , and ho left
for a chop house to get breakfast
When ho returned It wns 3 oclock The
old people were nt brenkfust with llttlo
Evelyn Miller pocrod through the windows
dews , whllo tlio poor llttlo daughter shrank
from his guzo
Soon Sergeant Graves nnd Ofllcor Savugo
appeared
They bud been sent to guard the Ohio man
Then cjmo nn o111ca boy in a cab It was
proposed to drlvo Evelyn to Council BlufTs ,
fearing violence in Omaha
At llrst Miller declared that ho would not
consent to the old mans request to let him
and the old lady go to the depot For a time
all pleadings wcro vain Finally , however ,
ho unbent his stiff conscience long enough
to acquiesce
It was a sad party that wont to the doDOt
Tlio llttlo ono sobDcd una cried the entire
distance
But the station was finally reached
What a party awaited them I 'lho
best people In the city were
there They had road Tim Bun The Council
Bluffs dummy came in and the scene ot
Thursday was ro-onaetod. By the nsslstunco
of au olliccr , the little ono was finally put on
board the train nud with her wont tbo giand-
parents
Ill remit nny mans ilno thnt gives that
follow a sound thrashing , " said the mayor ,
as tears streamed dawn his cheeks
For shame , " cried the crowd , for
shame "
The dummy started und , as It pulled out ,
a half seoro of norculoan gentlemen of vari
ous sizes bourded it All the way to the
Bluffs there worn ominous mutterings
Finally the transfer was reached
Now the circus opened It bad thrco
rings , and moro performers than anybody
The Inst farewells were said , the tears of
the old people mingled with these of llttlo
Evelvn , as thu gratiduarunts prepared to
surrender the child Miller was oxultaut ,
triumphant , bo had won
But had ho ? As Low Dockstader would
say , "I guess not "
Como on , " said Miller impatiently
• 'Ob I cant I cant '
, go , go Dent lot him
take mo , grandpa ; deut lot him take mo , "
said the llttlo ono
"Ohmy hcartis breaking , " Bobbed the old
lady
Deut lay your hands on this girl whllo
I'vcgot her " thundered who
, a man was
trying to coax the llttlo ono to get on the
train , "or bv the Almighty It will bo the
worse for you "
" 1 wont , t wont , 1' ' said the frighteued
Miller
Just then the llttlo ono sprang Into her
grandfathers arms ,
Put heron the train , " said Miller
"I cannot , " responded the old gentleman
"If you must tear her fiom my arms , take
her "
And Miller took her Ho grasped her llko
n master would a slave , lileo u terrier dog
would u rat and then it was the gentle
mnniy conductor who spoke His quiet volco
arose above the din of shouts of Dent lot
horjro " Keep her , old mun , " etc
"I want no quarreling on my train and
will not pormlt it If this girl is provided
with aticket nnd wishes to becoino a passen
ger , well and good But I can permit no
disturbance on my train "
Miller , in tbo meantime , had entered tlio
car Some one cried out , fake the cirl , old
man , and go away " They did so Ihey
boarded the Chicago , Burlington & Q-iiucy
and were away Ilk ) a flash , the conductor
giving tbo signal to leave nt once The cheer
that went up spilt the roof of the depot
Discomfited , chagrined and defeated , Mil
ler slunk away and came to Omaha , whllo
the ofUea boy stood not upon the order of'
his going , but went
The old man and old lady are going homo
• When they reach Noiflaha county the whole
population will fjrn out en masse to receive
them with open arms Should Miller go
there after bis child , so it Is thought they
will also turn out en masse to receive him ,
it Is expected with anything but words of
wclcomo
Miller is understood to bo making an effort
to have the old people arrested in Iowa , but
should bo drop down in tbo neighborhood of
Shenandoah , where the old pair is going , it
Is expected trouble will oasue
