Secretary Sherman Misrepress nted.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-In an explanatory
note regarding the printed statement of an in
terview between the editor of theSuuday Repub'
lican, Secretary Sherman says The editor does
not state as clearly as think he ought to have
done the two points in the conversation upon
which we disae First, as to his theory
about an interconvertible bond, stated my
theory was delusive and impractcsble, but
said had always favored convertible cur.
rency, that is holder of a greenback should
be allowed to convert it into a specified bond
at par until the United States was ready to re-
deem it in coin.
Second, in regard to National Banks, I said
that il the choice must be made between
greenbacks and bank notes, was in favor of
greenbacks, but thought that both ought to
be maintained in circulation at par with each
repeatedly expressed by me, both in the Senate
and before the people. The attempt to construe
what 1 said about my duty as an executive
officer to obey the law into doubt about the
wisdom of the resumption act, is simply folly.
L hope the time will never come wien an ex-
ecutive officer will not feel that his duty is to
obey the law without respect to his opinions
Z. 1t is pretty hard for public man always to
determine how to treat the press. 1 have been
very free and frank in communicating news to
the press and in cases OF doubt have decided in
favor of publication, aud have uniformly
treated the fair inquiries of editors and cores
pondents with respect. The great body of
editors and reporters are considerable, gentle-
manly and fair and 1 take pleasure in giving
them every courtesy and facility, frequently
answering their questions when l ought not to.
! greatly prefer that my answers to inquiries
IN casual conversations should not be printed.
Sometimes they are misconstrued, sometimes
mlsrepresented and sometimes manufactured
without shadow OF truth, merely to force
reply or denial. The public however. is able
to gather the truth in a little time.
