Democrats here sav that the government has a contract with a few men in New York from whom it buys all of. its silver and that is why silver is kept down in value.1 . The government buys silver, usually on each Friday, of whoever sells it cheapest. Any person who may have bar silver to sell makes a tender to the Treasury department offering so many ounces of silver at so much per ounce. There are usually from twelve to twenty or more such offers. The Tre surr ac cepts the lowest bids. The price of sil ver is a little higher here than it is in England. The price of silver is low the world oyer, and the purchases by the government keep it up instead of forcing.it down.
