We never entertained my doubt ~ the
honesty and sincerity of Mr.. JoHS KELLY
when, in reply to the charge of seeking TO
wicld the whole government Of New York
city as one-man power, he said, in sub
stance: II gave the Ieople good candi-
dates We believe he meant to give them
good candidates; but we were Of the opinion
that the people should have Just as much TO
do with nominating the candidates as with
elcctlng them.
The great objection 10 Mr. KEILY's theory
OF governing the city did not lie In any
grounds Of exception to himself personally,
for we regard him rs n man of fair charac-
ter, not unworthy Of high CONTAMINATION
for many things; but II consisted in the an

racy. The government Of one man Is not

Hayes and sherman Roth for the Silver
Dollar.

II is now almost officially announced that
both Mr. HAYES and Secretary SHERMAN
are in favor Of restoring the silver dollar TO
its former place in the coin currency Of the
country. The only difference between their
views is that while Mr.. HAYES desires to
make silver legal tender for all purposes
and to an unlimited extent, the Secretary
would do no more than substitute IL for the
outstanding grccnbacks, retaining gold as
the medium for the payment Of duties and
Of the coin debt of the United States. That
this difference Is one of detail onlv and not
of fundamental principle and that both
master and man are in substantial accord
in the scheme Of remonctizing silver, a
very little consideration will suffice to show.
Reckoning the greenbacks with silver is
as much violation of public faith as paying
the interest and principal of the public debt
In that metal. The greenbacks are In effect
promises to pay dollars in coin, and so are
the bonds. 1t is true that the promise has
been broken in one case and kept in the
other, but it is equally sacred in both, and
should be so treated. II we are going TO
put of silver on the holder of the grecnback
we may as well do the same by the holder Of
our bonds and coupons. To use vulgar
phrase, we may as well be hung for sheep
as n lamb. MIR. SHERMAN cannot stop at
the point he proposes to fix, but must go the
whole length of Mr.. HAYEs's proposition.
Besides, in order to carry out Mr.. SHER-
MANS plan, special legislation is needed
which he will find it impossible TO get from
any Congress which will adopt the silver
standard. Duties on imported goods are
now by statute payable in "cuin," without
specifying either gold or silver. Whenever
the coinage Of tho silver dollar IL reestab-
lishcd, it will be equally available with gold
for the payment of duties unless specially
excepted, and this exception no advocate OF
the silver dollar can consistently vote for.
Nor can he any more consistently vote for
an appropriation to buy gold with which to
pay the boudholder. The bonds are pay
able in coin. and silver dollars will fulfil
their terms as well as gold.
The result will bc, that II anything what
ever is done by this Administration to re-
store the silver dollar IL will be restored I'M
conditionally. This is what Mr. HAYES
favors in express terms and what Mr.. SHrR-
MAN favors IN his heart. He is now asking
the world to buy his four per cent bonds at
par in gold but he knows full well that as
soon as ever the choice is given him, he will
decide in favor Of paying these same bonds
in silver. The combined impudence and
dishonesty of his prospectus is quite worthy
OF this Fraudulent Administration.
