strongly comments the proposition TO re-
-lonctizc silver in the United States. 1t
does not psTtake OF the fears OF the "durid-
rauz!i5cs' in the least as TO the consequences.
The article was suggested by the report OF
Senator Jones Silver Commission. The
StaadGT,l considers that the RECOMMENDATION
oi silver in TO way involves the question OF
partial repUdiation Of the public debt. II
Is purely question to be determined by
economical considerations" and the London
journal finds these considerations on the side
OF reconciliation OF silver TO be very
weighty. Ii considers it "unquestionable
that resumption could be affected much
more easily if silver were made legal-tender
for unlimited amounts, and this not because
silver dollar at present prices would range
lower in comparison with gold than a paper
dollar, but because there is not sufficient
gold to be obtained with which to resume.
