WITH our exports so largely in excess Of
our imports the flow of gold has been from
England to this country. Although the i'm
ports are now gaining on the exports, this
movement is not likely to be changed. The
Bank of England has advanced its rate Of
discount to three per cent. in order to check
the drain. But even that will not immedi-
ately stop it.

GOLD fell the other day to 1O35 and re-
mains at trife over 1O3. At the former
rate the greenback dollar was worth SO cents.
At the same time the silver dollar of the old
standard was worth only 80 cents. But
many people who see and admit the
wrong of making the greenback an unlimited
legal tender, are deluded by the cry of invest.

IT Is appalling to think that half million
people have already starved in India, and
that the awful famine is likely to count three
millions and a half more as its victims. The
great Persian famine of 1871, which exceeded
any other Of modern times, swept away two
millions; but the present calamity, according
to all appearances, will carry off double the
number. That will be one-sixth OF the total
population of the region which 1t visits. No
amplifcation can increase the horror of the
simple statement,

IF there are any advocates Of inflated and
deprecated paper money who are not salts
fed with what this country can furnish
them, they can probably get their fill by 60
ing to Russia. The paper currency of that
nation already amounts to $64O, 900, 900, and
it is calculated that by fall it will exceed the
enormous sum of 81, 1,oOO, 100000. Years ago
Russia was compelled by her excessive paper
to resort to partial reputation; and If the
war continues as long asit now promises, her
credit may sustain similar shock again.

The Still Hunt.

Inc circular of the Chairman OF the DEM
ocratlc State Committee. made public through
lne eareiessness or indiscretion of some of his
henchmen, shows that the Democrats in this
campaign, as in some other more recent CAM
paigns which will be readily recalled, are at
tempting that peculiar system OF tactics to
which the astute Tammany politicians long
ago gave the name "the still hunt" That
is, the Democrats are making few public
demonstrations and are giving out that they
purpose to let the election 90 by default,
While all the time they are thoroughly organ
lzlng IN every town and school district, max
ing preparations to get absent voters home
and to call all their available strength to the
polls. Thus they hope to win victory by
surprise, and to carry the state while their
opponents are reposing carelessly upon their
arms. This plan of campaign has been at
tempted many times before and has only
failed because Republicans have discovered 1t
In season to foil it. 1t may succeed next
Monday unless prompt and vigorous meas
ures are taken to defeat 1t. The Republl-
1cans have it in their power in the next few
days to so thoroughly organize their forces
that no Democratic intrigues. however cum
ming, will avail against them. But they
have no time to lose. Measures must be
taken at once to bring out full vote. Can
yassing committees should visit every school
district in every town and see to it that every
Republican voter is at the post of duty, the
polls, on Monday next.

THE Democracy of Maine furnish an Illus
tration of the unstableness of that party on
the financial question in the action of two
county conventions. In Somerset county
boiling Democratic convention met and NOM
mated an out-and-out hard money Democrat
ic ticket, because the party managers had
previously adopted the Greenback county
nominee. On the other hand the same par
ty in Hancock county practically repudiated
SO much of the platform of the State Conven-
ton as declared for specie resumption, and
adopted resolutions making gold, silver and
greenbacks equally legal tender against
National banks, in favor of taxing Federal
bonds, and of paying the National debt in
greenbacks-a theory that its author, Mr..
Pendleton, is ashamed of.
