its devotion to the interests of the Demo-
cratic party. We note an instance of true
independence in Democratic paper, in the
following just and sensible article from
the Brattleboro RetOrmcT:
1t is the fashion for certain Republican
newspapers, some of them in this State to
deDrecate the alleged determination of the
Republican Senators to hold the admins
tratlon 10 account for removals made dur
ing the summer and, before confirming
the successor of officers removed, to de-
mand the reason for the removals. So far as
Mr. EdmundS is concerned the suggestion
has been made that, If he leads in this
matter 1t will be for personal reasons and
to secure his own individual advantage.
such pretended reason for Senator not
to do his plain duty is 50 shallow as to
require no answer. The fact to be borne
in mind is that the Senate no less than
the executive, is bound to abide by the
civil service law, which not only prescribes
the manner of appointments to Office, but
provides that removals shall be made for
cause. For the Senate, therefore,
to allow the President to re
move faithful. efficient Republican Off
Gals, for no reason except that they are
Republicans, and put Democrats in their
places, would be for that body to pointed
/ ~ ignore the civil service law and give the
lie to the Republican protests of devotion
to the reform There is wide difference
between Il purpose to insist on an observ
ance of the spirit of the reform law and Il
mean, partisan determination to antagonize
the administration, which we believe no
Republican Senator, and certainly no Yer
mont Senator, feels. Those papers which
hold that the Senate should sanction the
Presidents removals and confirm his APP
pointments without Il question, simply
show themselves adherents to the old
spoils doctrine. They hold, in effect, that
the Democrats ought to put out all the
Republicans, and that it ought to be the
end and aim of the Republicans in their
turn to get IA chance to put out all the
Democrats.

tween banks, but not necessarily between
individuals. The plan, if carried out,
would make the ratio at which silver and
gold would be used as money, self-ad-
justing. The quantity of silver bullion
brought to the treasury, together with its
market prize, would determine the guam
tty of certificates that would issue but
once issued, they would stand as so many
dollars.
The great objection to Mr.. Warmers
silver scheme is this: AS the production
OF silver is constantly in excess of the de-
mand, both for coinage and as manufac-
turing product, the metal is surely though
slowly, declining in value. Should this
decline continue-as there is every reason
to expect that it will-there would soon
result difference in value between the
face of Mr.. Warmers silver certificates
and the value of the silver for which they
were issued and this difference would
keep on increasing so long as the decline in
silver continued. OF course, rs the gov
eminent would be bound to redeem the
silver certificates at the market val ue of
silver ut the time Of deposit, it is easy to
see that the government would lose large
ly in the end. The plan would, at best
afford only a temporary alienation, and
relieve the government from a present
embarrassment, only to plunge it into a
deeper one by and by The issue is "A dis
tinct one between the interests of the gen
eral public and the interest of the owners
of silver mines. The latter control Con-
gress and it is perhaps hopeless to expect
that they will relinquish the advantage
they have secured, in making the United
States treasury their instrument to keep
up the price of silver, till a grand none
tary crash, and return of the premium on
gold, arouse the patient people to assert
their power.
