THE CHAMBER AND THE CURRENCY.

A rumor was flying on Saturday
afternoon, to the effect that the
Chamber of Commerce had decided
to precipitate discount of silver to
bullion value, or S4 cents on the
dollar. This was contradicted later
by the correct report that the
Chamber had postponed taking action
upon the currency question, beyond
that previously taken, fol-. one week.
1t is to be hoped the Chamber will
do nothing so rash as the action
rumor was ready to credit it with.
If silver discount bc inevitable, let
it come by natural process. A decree
of the Chamber of Commerce to
force silver down would look so
much like bear movement Oh Wall
street as to excite grave suspicious
regarding the motives of the actors.
On the other hand the Chamber
might exert its influence for the good
of the country, at this juncture, by
proposing something practical to the
Government. Its memorial praying
for the conversion Of a large amount
of Hawaiian silver into gold was
hardly practical, since not half
dozen merchants can be found of
one mind as to what would be y
sufliciency of silver to retain. 1t
would be practical to cndeavor to
get the Government to take the
responsibility of honoring its own
coinage at par. AS we have said
repeatedly, if the present silver cur
rency cannot be maintained perman-
emily under n gold standard, it is
the Government, as repre- sentihg the
whole country, which should bear
the loss of getting it exchanged for
money that would stand on its
intrinsic value. 70 precipitate
discount on silver at this crisis would
be to make confusion worse con-
founded.

DEAR SIR We take pleasure in in
forming you of the good work done by
your Hand Grenades at our Factory in
Alameda, yesterday. A fire caught upon
the shinglc roof of a large frame struc-
ture, and burned furiously, and for
time endangered our entire works. The
fire was burning over about one hundred
feet of surface when the alarm was
given, and the men all being on the first
floor, seized thcSGrcnades and had to 90
up three flights of stairs to the top of
the building, which is sixty feet high,
and there was difficulty in gaining ac.
cess to the fire on account of the steep.
ness of the roof and the absence of
cleats, which occasioned considerable
delay. When the men reached the fire
they instantly eXtinguished it by the
use of your Hand Grenades, although
the shingles were well burned We be.
lieve your Grenades saved the building
from total destruction. Please send us
an additional supply Immediately.
Yours Very Truly,

We are having some very disagreeable
weather at present, but we ought to be well
pleased to know that we are blessed so well
as not to be destroyed with cyclones and
floods as other portions of the world have
during the few eeEs past.
We see in the columns of your paper that
Cincinnati is almost destroyed and now
stands beneath the roaring waves of the
Ohio river.
The farmers are getting cry anxious for
clear weather SO that they can pillow for the
