THE PRESENT RATIO.
An inquiry has been raised as to
what is the ratio of the present coined
silver dollar. We think it is practical
ly 16 to 1. In 1786 the dollar was
first used as currency, before the adop
tion of the United States constitution;
and it was declared the unit at that
time, without any specification as to
the metal In which it should be coined.
The ratio of gold to silver was declared
as 1 to 15 in 1794, by which valuation
gold was underrated, and silver became
the standard circulating medium.
This ratio was changed by a law iu 1884
to 1 to 16, and also in 1837 to 1 to 15}.
According to the commercial bullion
value of the two metals gold was still
overrated, and the ratio was again
changed iu 1853 to Ito 15J. Silver
was demonetized in 1873. In 1878 the
Blaud-Allison bill restored to a lim
ited degree the coinageof silver dollars,
by the proviso that from $2,000,000 to
$4,000,000 should be coined per month.
The Sherman law iu 1890 called for
the purchase of silver bullion upon
which to issue certificates, which prac
tically stopped the coinage of silver
dollars, until the purchasing clause of
this law was repealed, in 1893.
The free silver democrats and popu
lists propose to restore the free coinage
of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.

COUNTY CONVENTION.
THE DEMOCRATS ENDORSE
BRYAN, SEWALL AND
FREE SILVER.
A full Report of the Democratic
County Convention, With
a List of Delegates to
State and Congres
sional Convention.
The representatives of the democracy
of Winneshiek county assembled in
convention at the Court House in this
city Saturday afternoon, and at two
o’clock Dan Shea called the convention
to oraer and read the call as published.
He stated that the County Central
Committee had chosen A. Bernatz as
permanent chairman and nominated
him. C. C. Coutant of the Journal ,
was elected secretary. Dan Shea
moved that a committee of live on cre
dentials be appointed by the chairman.
P. Powers, J. DeCow, R. S. Wolfen
berger, J. M. McMahon and G. F.
Francis were appointed. E. R. Acers
moved that a committee of three on
permanent organization be appointed.
The chairman named H. A. Bigelow’,
M. J. Carter and A. C. Heck. The
committee on credentials reported that
two delegations from the third w r ard
were present, but on account of one
not being properly signed it. was thrown
out. E. R. Acers moved that the re
port of the committee be amended by
naming T. Finn, F. A. Lloyd and C.
B. Lennon as delegates from the third
ward. Dan Shea then made a stirring
speech arguing that the men advocating
tnig change were not supporting the
democratic platform and that the con
venffon should accept the properly
signed credentials. Acers replied by
saying that Mr. Shea had cast a re
flection on his standing with the party
and the national convention had
adopted a platform and he stood right
on that platform. Chairman Bernatz
{nit the motion as amended, which w r as
ost, and then the regular motion was
carried. M. J. Carter reported for the
committee on permanent organization,
that the temporary organization be
made permanent. Mr. Shea moved
that the chairman appoint one from
each supervisor’s district as a com
mittee to select delegates to the con
gressional and state conventions. Mr.
Acers moved as an amendment, that
this committee be appointed by the
delegations from each supervisor’s dis
trict. R. S. Wolfenberger called for a
vote by townships, which resulted in
A) ‘voting no, and 19 yen. Then the
chairman put the original motion,
which was carried.
At this juncture, a number ot the
meu voting yeti— we presume gold men
—bolted, and left the court room evi
dently in anger. Verily Winneshiek
is not in the rear when it comes to
popular fads.
The chairman appointed as the com
mittee to select delegates to the con
gressional convention, Dan Shea, M.
A. Kubish, Judge DeCow, R. S.
Wolfenberger and Albert Wingate, and
to select delegates to state convention,

gates to tlie state and congressional
conventions be empowered to cast the
full vote of the county. Dan Shea read
some resolutions indorsing the national
platform, and pledging the support of
the county to the national ticket, which
were adopted. Mr. H. A. Bigelow pro
posed three cheers for Bryan and Se
wall, and the convention adjourned
amid a rousing demo nstration.

The above figures which appeared
in a recent issue of the Chicago Daily
Tribune , furnish a complete answer to
the stock arguments of the silver people
that their’s is a poor man’s campaign.
They also clearly indicate the localities
and business interests from whence
cometh the inspiration of the alleged
poor man’s campaign.
Furthermore to a man up a tree the
mouthliugs of these same millionaires
and their Lackers against the concen
tration of wealth in the hands of the
few sounds a little queer in the face of
these figures.
That Bicycle Race.
The topic of conversation for a week
previous to last Wednesday night and
since has been the bicycle race between
Nord. Jackwitz and H. F. Thompson.
By the time for the race to begin a
large number of people had congre
gated at Curtin’s track, and consider
able speculation as to the winning man
was carried on.
H. Haskell had been chosen as pace
maker, but at the start neither man
followed him, both evidently trying to
follow the other. Finally Thompson
took the lead and retained it in a com
paratively slow gait until they came
to the stretch, when they quickened
their pace and in going around the
last turn Thompson swung out to near
or possibly past the center of the track,
ana Jackwitz was compelled to take
the pole. Thompson again turned in
towards the iuslae of the trac‘d, and the
two wheels came together, both men
being thrown, and Jack wit* had one
leg cut badly just below the knee. The
writer was in no position to judge
whether or not Thompson intentionally
pocketed Jackwitz, and of course no
oue but himself could know. Both
picked up their wheels and liegan to
run, but Thompson was tripped near
the finish, and Jackwitz ran in a little
ahead. A sort of “rough house” was
held for a time, the backers of both
men claiming the race, but the judges
made no decision at that time, and not
until Thursday noon, when two of
them drew up their “opinion” and
signed it. The prize money was given
back to those who had staked it, and
most of the bets divided. The affair
was a disgraceful oue, and will doubt
less put an end to races of this sort in
Decorah. We are very sorry the acci
dent occurred, and if iuteutional on
the part of Thompson it should dis
qualify him from racing. Below we
give the opinion of two of the judges,
Bartoot and Cameron:
Opinion of Judges.
Under the written Articles of Agreement,
each party chose a Judge; Jackwitz choosing
Dr. Barfoot, and Thompson choosing E. E.
Auchmoody and these two agreeing upon J.
J. t'ameron for the third judge.
The (acts so far as we could sec are these:
Thompsou having the lead from the start,
Jackwitz trailing him very close all the way;
as they entered the home stretch in the last
lap, Thompsou in the lead, he crossed from
the Inside of the truck to a little beyond the
center, then turned and started towards the
inside of the truck and Justaltcr this turn the
two men came together and both men were
thrown.
The articles of agreement provide that the
L. A. W. rules are to govern the race as nettr
as can be applied. The rules applicable to
this state of (actsureas follows:
‘‘Ouenteriug the home stretch In the last
lap of the race, the foremost rider or riders
must keep to that part of the truck first se
lected, or be liable to disqualification.” *‘A
rider shall not change from the Inner to the
outside of the tnick during any part of the
race when another rider Is so near that In
altering his position he Interferes with or im
pedes the progress of the other rider.” “In
any race wherein there shall be a violation ot
these restrictions, the offending rider shall be
disqualified and disbarred from auy place or
prize.” “If a rider in attempting' to (miss
another on the home stretch, should at any
time cross or swerve sous to impede the pro
gress ofunother rider, he shall be disquall tied.”
It Is easily seen that a violation or these
rules Is extremely dangerous to the life and
health of all the contestants in a nice: theri>-
fore the rules must be strictly complied with.
We do not pretend to say that there was u
willful violation of the rules. But when
Thompson left the pole, went to the center of
the track and a little beyond, and then turned
to come buck to the pole, he interfered with
the other rider and It wus a char violation of
the rules governing the race. Anil the very
thing huppeued which these rules are Intended
to prevent; to-wlt: The injuries received by
the contestants. Under the facts and rules
as above stated there Is dearly but oue thing
for us to do, and that is to declare Jackwitz
the wluuerof the race.

FAT MEN’S CLUB.
Have an Outing at Aaron Sheet’s
Picnic Grounds.
Friday morning, Aug. 7th, about 40
members of the above named club met
at the Aaron Sheet’s picnic grounds
for an all day’s outing. Every mem
ber tipped the i>eam at 200 pounds or
over. Advoirdupois was at a premium
and weighty results were sure to follow.
The expanse of shirt fronts and waist
coats would have sufficed to clothe
half the “kids” in Decorah, and never
in the history of lowa has their been
such an aggregation of heavy weights
as met at the grounds mentioned.
Henry Klvidge and John Stoskoft'
acted ;as official weighmasters and
weighed the various members whose
pockets were carefully searched for
concealed bricks or anything calculated
to increase the chances of the aspirants
for club honors. Tony Bernatz was in
defatigable in his efforts to prevent
false weights and misrepresentations
aud waxed eloquent over the axiom
that “honesty used to be the best
policy” and he believed it was yet.
Certainly, a more rollicking good
natured ponderous humanity never
met on lowa soil. With hearts in
keeping with their generous physical
proportions they drank to the health
of one another and the world in general
in a spirit that has made the fat man
the fitting type of those that look upon
the brightest side of life, and whose
smile gives evidence of a conscience at
ease and that good digestion has waited
upon appetites aud health on both.
Athletic sports were the order of the
day. Sheriff’ Christen bore off the
Srize for high jumps from all fours,
oe Shema for catch-as-catch-can
wrestling; in fact so many satisfactory
points were made that it was resolved
that a general challenge be issued open
to all comers that the Decorah Fat
Men’s Club is nowhere outweighed or
outrivaled in any particular. A repast
was served that would have completely
discouraged the proprietors of the Win
neshiek House and sent them hustling
after the caterer’s receipt book. The
question of organizing a bicycle club
was discussed, but decided action was
postponed until the next regular meet
ing. The following officers were
elected: E. B. Morss, Pres., C. A.
Neufert, V. Pres., B. Anundsen, Sec.,
J. Bradisli, Treas., C. Christen aud J.
Stoskott", Stewards.
After a day of good hearty fun, the
club wound up its second annual meet
in a blaze of glory and good cheer.
*
How’t* this? The sheriff of Black
hawk county, who arrested Scott, the
Waterloo minister, while In tndjr
ana noticed a sign in a cigar store win
dow which read thus: “Every pur
chaser of fifty cents worth of goods and
presenting a paper dollar will receive
the amount of their purchase and a sil
ver dollar in change.” He went into
the store aud after buying fifty cents
worth of cigars handed the proprietor
a paper dollar. He was given the
cigars aud a brand new silver dollar as
change. The only wrong was that it
was a Mexican dollar. The storekeep
er said that his banker procured the
dollars from Mexico at a cost of fifty
five cents to him, aud that this scheme
brought him a good run of trade.
Isn’t this a pretty good lesson of the re
sult in the United States if Bryan and
free silver should happen to be success
ful?
