R3~ The Cincinnati ENQUIRE

sD~ The Cincinnati Enquirer
in its issue Of the 9th Of De-
cemher ult., pays the South
the following truthful and we'll
deserved compliment:
"Ever since the war the
Southern people have acted in a
most conciliatory spirit toward
the Northern people. They did
not thrust forward a Presiden-
tial or Vice-Presidential can
didate at either Of the three
Conventions. They did not e.
ven ask or expect a candidate
for either position. For Speak
err Of the House they never pre-
scntcd a candidate, but gave
their ardent support to North
ern man, and a pronounced I'M
ionist. They were always found
on the side of peace, and advo-
Gates of political harmony. We
think the Southern people since
the war have acted a noble part,
and are to-day entitled to some
recognition at the hands of our.
next President, who should be
the one honestly elected by the
votes Of a large majority Of the
people-SAMUEL j. TMDEN.

IT is thought that Civil Service
Reform Rules will not be ready for
PRONUNCIATION for nearly week.
From private utterances of the Presi-
dent it is inferred that all Federal
officers will be prohibited from taking
an active part in political manifesto
tons, and becoming members of pO-
litical committees, and the President,
in a recent conversation on the sub
ject, said that while the enforcement
of such a rule might work some in
jury to the Republican party for a
little while to come, it was sound in
principle, and he would insist upon
its being strictly observed.

that part OF the navy yards be

THE Paris Exposition Of 1878 is
the third exhibition of the kind that
has been held in that city, and the
eighth of the Sc les. The first great
worlds fair was held in London in
1851, by the Society of Arts; the
others have been held at long or
short intervals at Dublin, New York,
Paris, Vienna and Philadelphia. The
Paris Expnsitions have always been
of high order Of excellence, and
that of next year, unless it is serious
ly interfered with by war, bids fair
to eclipse all former displays.
Fairs date from the most ancient
times, and have always been held ID
high esteem. Monarchs were always
DESTROYS of having fairs held in theil
countries, and granted to the exhib
itors special privileges. These fairs
have had marked effect upon the
language. There can be no question
but that the great fairs of to-day are
the most effective promoters of pro
gress and civilization.

THE SILVER DOLLAR.

The main question at issue now is,
as to the repeal and modification of
the law Of 1878, making the gold dol
lar the standard of value. Previous
to 1899 the Spanish dollar was the
coin in which contracts were made in
America. Congress had adopted the
dollar as the unit of money of account
in 1856, ard fixed ITS value at 1854
grains fine; but no dollar were
coined, the Spanish dollar continuing
in use. In 1892, when Congress
adopted and coined an American dol
lar, the weight was fixed at 37l4
grains fine. Hamilton found the
average weight of the Spanish dollar
in circulation to be 81 grains, and
added the t for full weight.
The weight of this coin was alter
wards reduced by reducing the
amount of alloy, the dollar still re-
tanning 9Th grains silver, and it con-
tinued to be legal tender for all
debts, public and private, until 1878.
At that time Congress passed coin
age act, enumerating the authorized
coins and declaring the gold dollar
the unit of value A separate sec
ton declared that the silver coins of
the United States should thereafter
be a legal tender at their nominal
value for any amount not exceeding
five dollars.
A proposition which seems to meet
the assent of conservative men on
both sides of the question, is to re.
store the double or optional standards
at the same time amending the coin.
age law so as to give the silver dol
lar a market value equal to that
of the gold dollar. The present law
passed in 1878, makes the trade dol
lar the only American silver dollar to
be coined thereafter. This dollar is
| Of the weight of 420 grains, and the
coinage law fixes the proportion of
gold and silver at 900 parts by weight
OF pure metal to 100 parts of alloy.
1t the standard is changed so that
the market value of the gold and sill
yer dollar would average about the
same il the London market, to adopt
the double standard might facilitate
tine resumption of specie payments,
and at the same time make no seri-
Gus disturbance in value of securities,
nor in any existing contracts. This
seems the only way IN which IA re-
turn to bi-metallic standard could
be conceded now.

THE Centennial Exposition at Phi

THE Centennial Exposition at Phil
adelphis proved to be paying en-
terprise. The excess of receipts over
the expenses left dividend of about
thirty per cent. for the stockholders
over their original investment. The
managers tried hard to gobble the
81, 800, 900 appropriated or loaned by
the Government to help along the
project, but their efforts met with a
signal failure, they having been very
properly compelled to pay the money
back into the public treasury.
