While I have to make a
plain statement of the con-

financial system, I have had
in mind the fact that many of my
whose sincerity do not doubt,
insist that the cure, for the ills now
may found in the
single and simple remedy of the free
coinage of silver. They contend that
our mints shall lie at once thrown open
to the free, unlimited and independent
coinage of both gold and silver dollars
of full legal tender quality,
of the action of any other governments,
and in full view of the fact that the
ratio between the metals which the
suggest calls for cents worth of
gold in the gold dollar at the present
standard, and only fifty cents in
sic value worth of silver in the silver
dollar. Were there infinitely stronger
reasons than can be adduced for hoping
that such action would secure for us a
currency moving on our lines
of parity, an so novel and
hazardous as that proposed might well
stagger those who believe that stability
is an imperative condition of sound
money.
No government, no human
or act of legislation has ever
able to hold the two metals together
in free coinage at a ratio
from that which is established
in the markets of the world.

It has always seemed to me that the
provisions of law regarding the capital
of national banks, which operate as a
limitation to their location, ought to
make proper compensation for the
of State banks, which
came near to the people in all sections
of the country and readily furnished
them with the banking
and facilities. Any
or embarrassment arising from
these restrictions on the location of
national banks might well be remedied
by bettor adapting the present system
to the creation of banks in smaller
communities or by permitting banks o
large capital to establish branches in

so regulated and restricted as to secure
their safe and conservative control and

of their lives. She was the youngest
daughter of Rev. X. Andrews, who
for many years was a member of the
X. C. Conference of the M. E. church

years has indeed suffered many heart
aches. Ia 1885 the father was called

an older sister died in Florida, far away
from home and friends; in August and

much for her already feeble condition
and this, together with a fatal disease,
soon terminated her life and her spirit
