in Mississippi and Texas leave no further
doubt In the success of the question of
people can do it, and it is now the duty
of Congress to put the capstone on its
accomplishment as soon as ever practi-
erbe during its present session. These
two States have, at least formally, COM
Piled with the conditions under which
they can be re-adopted among the States
Of our Union and it seems that the Pres
ident and Congress are willing to receive
back all the Southern States with tho ex-
oeption of Georgia, which will not COM
ply even formally.
But OF the greatest Importance are the
material iuterests of our country and
therefore the reforms in our financial and
revenue matters will first claim undivided
attention, the more complicated their
treatment and the more differences there
exist regarding their amehoration.
Congress will have to decide how soon
specie payment is to be resumed, thereby
considering the necessity that the Nation
must under all circumstances be able to
comply with its engagements, and then to
regulate the import duties and the inter-
nal revenue in such manner, that they
may cause as light burden to the great
mass of the people as possible, at the
same time being protection to the con-
tinuance and increase of our home man.
ufaetures.
All this is much easier said than
done, and we do not risk to give our pos
tive opinion whether an Immediate or a
gradual return to specie payment would
DO the most preferable, although the lat
ter seems to US the most advisable and the
only one practicable.
We are confident however that Con-
gress containing Sc many able and finan-
oiaily experienced members will solve these
questions to the greatest good of the
greatest number and that this country
will continue to be led on with increasing
success to the homer of the great repub-
ican party of these United States.

In contrast TO recent movements therein the gold
market was steady, the extreme range OF the price
during me day being from 40 TO 1908. The open
ing price was 1901, from which point there a
decline 1905 at the ume OF the government sale.
The bids 1T the Sub-Treasury were for q total OF
S3,290O00, at prices ranging from 12o.15 to 1901
those above 100 being sufficient to enable the award
10 be made at an average OF about 120.O5 The large
number OF bids induced a stronger feeling In the
Gold Room and the price to 1908 but upon the
weakening OF exchange yielded TO 100. which was
the price at the close OF the board. The decline ~
also attributed to the announcement from Washing
ton tnat the Secretary OF the Treasury Will IN future
decline all bids which are more than half per cent
below the market price at the time the bids SUBJ
mitted. This was interpreted by inversion, to
mean that the Secretary will In. future accept all
bids that are within half per cent OF the Market
which knocks away the last hope or the bulls that
the Treasury gold Will not be sold below certain
figures. The range Of tine market IS shown in the
