The greatest danger to be apprehended
in the financial legislation in the next
congress is the free coinage of silver. The
present silver dollar is now used almost
exclusively in payment of small debts.
There is not as yet sufficient quantity of
the dollars in circulation, to have them
offered in payment of large debts. While
the coinage is restricted to the actual
wants of the country for subsidiary coin,
the discrepancy existing between the
legal and the real value of the silver dol
lar will be productive OF little or no dis
turbance to the industries Of the country.
The government now realizes quite
profit in the coinage OF silver and of
course the purchase of silver bullion and
its coinage into dollars, give the secretary
a source Of revenue by no means iusig
nifcant. He is more interested In provid-
ing for resumption than in determining
the policy best suited to the interests of
the country, and there may be danger
that he Will coin silver in excess of the
needs OF the country.
But it is to be hoped that free coinage
of silver with the present amount of pure
silver in a dollar unchanged will, receive
no considerable support in the next ses-
sions of congress. This is not great
deal better than fiatism. 1t is practically
making the silver dollar, worth SO cents,
the dollar of the country, and will drive
gold entlrely ont of circulation. 1t viii
beget such a speculation in silver as VIII
prove ruinous to the country. 1t will be
saying virtually that So cents worth of
silver shall pass for 100 cents worth of
gold. The country will be flooded with
silver dollars, and every gold coin will
emigrate to those countries which do not
discriminate against it.
BY increasing the quantity of pure silver
III the dollar so as to make it equal in
value with the gold dollar, no injustice
will be done. OF course, the relative
values will not long remain the san e,
and one of the metals will in time pass
ont of circulation. But no injustice will
| thus be done to either debtor or creditor.
If free coinage be restored, honesty
requires that the value of the silver dol
| lar be increased.

THE Ere1tiRg Wisconsin is consider
ably exercised over Bouck' majority, and
insinuates that it is the result of an ag-
reement between Howe and SAWYER on
one side and Bouck on the other, by
which the parties first named secretly
supported Bouck in return for the cleo
ton of members of the Legislature favor
able to Howe's re election to the United
States Senate. 1t does seem as if the
republ- can nominations in the district
had more to do with the result than any
compact could have. People, no matter
what their politics, will not support man
WHO'S VIGOROUSLY incompetent to I'LL the
position to which he aspires. Jones' nom
lnation was received with derision every
where. Accounting for his defeat on the
grounds of a collision between the parties
named, is somewhat similar to account.

It is almost disgusting to read the ac-
counts of the trip of the Marquis of
Lorne and the Princess Louise from
England to Halifax. The idea that the
American<people are interested in all the
little details of the journey including the
sea-sickness of the royal pair, is to be-
lieve that they are ready to worship peo-
pie whom the accident of birth and not
their own merit have raised to distinc-
ton.
