.WHAT IS IK HOKEST D0LL1R.
A ' Lead! Eg Financial raper, DK
cares the Intr'iisje Valae Taeary.
Tbe Financier of New. I York, ' one
of the leading financial paper of
the country, in an article showing
the difference betwetii the intrinsic
and. the money or 'tiat" value of
gold andWlver coins, says: i
"The two precious metals have an
intrinsic value and a coin value,
which . are by
means necessarily indentical
in tct never are indentieal.
"The intrinsic valne of an
no
-which
ounce
of gold, is ita value as a commodity
for use in the arts foi nmkine jew
elry, for gilding, and to all the other
uses to, which gold fs put- exclusive
of coinage. It. has this value whf th
er ittis coined or not. and the value is
not affected by coinage, though I he
price is, ! ; ' :
,'The coinage of igold is the , dif
fereDce between its intrinsic value
for use in t he art?, and its4 ! exchange
value as money. -
"This difference is so ; material,
that if gold were demonetized -were
not eoined oi Used as monej' its
price pur ounce w:onld probably be
!.lefs tiian half its Price at present.
We have no means f den-nhiniag
this accurately, nor is- if. iircessary.
All that; is necessary to clear nnder
staudiig of the fundamental ques
tion of coinage is a clear apprehen
sion of this difference between the
intrinsic value of the coinage nietal
and its excharifre value when coined
as money. 'Where trold has been

given for either a gold or silver dol

of the metal in either. The wheat
is not given for the metal. It- is

' "If silver is wholly or in part de
! monetized, its 'price falls toward its
; intrinsic value in precisely the same
way The rule is inyariaible and to
be relied on at all tinies. It is -the'
first principle of coinage and those
who remember it and apply it will
not be lost in the bewildering cbu-
fusiou of statements about value of
this dollar or that. So. matter what
the dollar is, the exchange value it
has is given by. the coinage stamp on
it and this exchange value is uot its
intrinsic value by amy means. It is
alwaysnmch greater than the in
trinsic value,"
If this is true, is there any differ
ence jn "precious metal" dollars and
paper dollars?. In Answer to' this
jiiestioh the Financier admits, that
there is not an v difference and only
holds to the .flleory that the use of

shall be known and ascertained;

sistance by a competent engineer or
engineers appointed by the State in
aid of road and bridge buildincand
repairing npon; scientific principles,
and upon a comprehensive and eco
nomical plan for the whole State;
thirdly, I would have the State eith
er own or control and maintain some
through highways, connecting the
principal towns in the State, and
connecting these with the principal
towns of neighboring States, where
thev are most needed, either for
great public exigencies or for the
greatest general use. The State
would thus promote the equaliza
tion and the general reduction of er
pense of construction and mainte
panoeof these main roads, and would
give a profitable example and a
atrong incentive to the adjaceut
(owns to construct better contribu -tory
roads as' feeders to the "mam

Lthe expenses of this scheme of road
betterment in the tax levy, so tnat
part of it should be apportioned to
the whole State part to the counties
through which the road ran, and
part to the tow us. I And further, I
would have this tax lew kept small

Tbe business .bart of the White
House has been entirely remodelled
by President Harrison. Private
Secretary Half ord has the 'small
room at the sontheastcorder, and the
President has taken the room which
Dan Lamont used to occupy, which
was the office oil President Lincoln.
The other rooms further on beyond
the one in which the Cabinet meets
are all large and airy, and'they are
fitted up for the living rooms of the
family. In the President's business
office you ( will find a half dozen
clerks, and you can reach out your
finger and touch any part of the
world. There is a. telegraph" opera
tor whose key Is connected with the
cable and te'esrraph wires of tbe
United States, anu there is a clerk
who does but little , else than attend
to the newspapers, and the President
gets his papers from everywhere, and
all the leading journals are to be
fonnd here. . In one large room
there are a number of clerks, and
among these is Colonel Crook, the
Cashier of tbe White Jlonse, and
there aremunierons typewriters and
other employes. There is an eleva
tor in the White House', and, all in
all, the old Mansion is packed full

last week's rioting was the outcome,
are of long standing, though the
real contest began In-April last, in

trouble wa the usual one, n difference
about wages, the unioii minera de

working underground, aud the own
ers insisting on a reduction of fifty
cent per day where unskilled labor
was - employed. The latter assert
that the mines cannot be run . at a
profit at the higher wages demanded
by the men, owing to the high rates
of freight, an assertion apparently
borne out by the fact that the works
remained clos?d for some time after
the lockout, and that as'iuiniug -requires

"the farmers' does riot- lake into
consideration tbe extra expense he
incurs baaling loads Over our poor
roads. From reliable: sources it is
learned that a ton can be ' movetl on
a good macadamized road with but
torty pounds of power; therefore
it is easily seen how much gfeater,!
amount of work a team will 4o,on
such roads. In England horses dp
twice as much work as in America,
because of the better roads there.
In New j Jersey, in one county
where only fortjf miles of such' road
has leen built, the value of land has
advanced enough enough to pay the
whole expense without . increasing
the rate of taxation. In Ohio, where
the system has been adopted, the
arms adjoining have increased $10.
per acre in value. Such an increase
from the same cause in Ontario
county would rawe the value of
farms $3,500,000. In Indiana where
macadamized roads ha re been built
there is a : large: increased demand

proved roads have been built, there
has been an increase in the value of
