NEW YORK, July 10.
A Tribune Washington special says
the representatives of the western dis
tricts learn rom letters received from
home within a few days that the senti-
ment among the people in favor of the
reconciliation OF the silver dollar, and
especially among those who have
heretofore been opposed to resunp-
ton and in favor of an increase of
greenbacks circulation is very great and
rapidly growing. in Ohio the advo-
Gates of the silver dollar are already
making their influence felt in the pol
itics of the State and an advocate of
the issue of silver dollars was the
most formidable adversary which Mon.
roe had in the convention yesterday.
In Garfield's district the sentiment in
favor of this return is so strong that he

sentiment of the people under the lead

Archbishop PURCELL ON the school
system.
CINCINNATI, Aug. 10.
The Catholic TeLedraph this morning
contains an article from Arbishop Pur-
cell, defining the attitude of the Catho-
lie church toward the public school
system Of the United States. He de-
clares the church has no disposition to
interfere with the system. No doubt

Catholic people of this country to ex-
emption from taxation for the support
of other schools, or to a share of the
public school fund in proportion to the
number of pupils in the schools, but
even this claim we are disposed to
waive in your favor"
