The Congressional Thinkers again
at Work.

Tho hostility 10 silver coin on the
part Of Eastern shylocks is already
manifesting itself in this session of
Congress. Plumb, OF Nebraska, has
introduced in the Senate bill which
authorizes and directs tho Secretary
oi the Treasury to receive silver bullion
at the mints and assay offices in sums
Vi not less than $1,000. and to issue
'Hetefor, as depositors may elect.
standard silver dollArs Or su'eT ccTIIn-
cats. The courage Of standard silver
dollars or silver certificates ia prohibit.
ed from and after the passage OF this
bill until the amount Of such standard
silver dollars in the Treasury shall
equal the percentage Of silver certif-
Gates issued and outstanding. and shall
then be resumed; but only such AL
amount as shall be required to preserve
that proportion between standard silver
dollars in the Treasury and silver GER
tilcates outstanding. o.,
Since tho passage Of the "silver
| bin" at the last session, over the most
| strenuous opposition from all the gold
bugs and mOuopolists Of the couDtTy.
the insatiate nav of Wall.street sharks
has been comparatively unsupplied with
its usual Provender, and violent effort
for the virtual repeal of that measure
may be confidently looked for from the

enemies Of that bill-both before and
after its passage-was Secretary of the
! Treasury, John Sherman, who carried
his cnIuity to the extent Of refusing tC
discharge his official duty in author
Iling the provisions OF the bill to b,
carried out.
The present Secretary, Folger. of New

Democratic Silver.

Since his vote favoriug the elevation
OF Stanley Matthews to the Supreme
Bench, We have not had much faith in
the Democracy of tho Wabash Syca-
more" but his speech in the Senate
last Friday ruferriug to that portion OF
the Presidents message which related
to the silver question must meet the
hearty indorsement of the great mass
Of adherents to the Democratic faith.
Mr. Voorhees, held and justly, too ] that
characterization was a potent factor to
the depression from 1879 to 1879. He
raVersed the whole ground Of pauics,
hSht money markets, greeubackism,
and the gold standard. by Democratic
measures the currency had been ex-
and the country was prosperous. He
characterized the attompt of Secretary
Folger for the retirement Of silver Ger.
tiicates as wanton and criminal assault
upon the financial stabily and business
prosperity of the country. 1t was pro.
posed to destroy sec. .OU0, 900 OF money,
and tha bare proposition would create
panic and disorder; but Congress, wiser
that the President would pay no heed
to the T, recommendation. The Secretary
evidently wants to drive silver out OF
circulation. He says he cannot circu
late the silver in the vaults; yet shows
that sec, 900. 900 in paper. based on this
very coin is circulating very freely.
There are 500. 900, 900 in silver circu.
luting according to his uncandid report,
and yet he alleges silver is drug. aud
the people don't want it. The Secretary
says with insolent complaoeney that the
National Banks, those pitiless ursurers,
can regulate the currency Of the country
according to it's needs. by issuing their
notes. Voorhees, vehemently attacked
the National Bank system.
