made the supposed cap for him,
until the philosopher, hearing the
noise, drew near and asked him how
he had got into such terrible fix.
"Why," All kon Sect replied in

SILVER CERTIFICATES AND CURRENCY

Tavernicr's picture shown on Fri
day night last was representation
of the volcano of Kilauea in differ
ent aspect from that portrayed in
his former treatment of the same
subject. For intense realism of fire,
and heat, and vapor of smoke, its
startling fidelity to the rugged sub
Unity of the cauldron walls, it is,
like the other picture, simply above
criticism. AS gentleman remark
ed in its presence,-''lt is marvel
lous how the artist could put such
hot colors on cold canvas" Mr..
Strong's pictures were series, in
black and white, of illustrations for
Harper'S Weekly. They are re-
markably natural and live repre-
scntations of the amphibious natives
and Island scenery. "The Arrival
of the Mariposa," is the largest one.

A PARABLE.

A certain philosopher was annoy
ed by washermen, who washed dirty
linen in sight of his house. So he
made tent for the washers, so that
they should hide their work from
the view OF his family and guests.
Now one of the washers, named All
Kon Sect, was wrong in his mind,
being possessed of the notion that
his head was so big that no hat
which he could buy in any store

the CHAMBER AND THE GOVERNMENT

Elsewhere will be found the
memorial last presented to the Gov
ernment upon the currency question,
by committee of the Chamber of
Commerce. Also, our readers will
see, by what is added from the Id
uertiser, that the "Declaration,"
published and commented upon in
this paper the other day, is the
Government reply to that COM
mittee. There is not much to be
said, with the committees proposal
in sight, in addition to the views we
expressed when only the Govern
ment's reply was published. On
the side of the committee there is a
clear and definite plan for the solu
ton Of the difficulty. 1t beats us
to see where the hardship would
accrue to the Government in adopt
ing this plan, except upon the sup
position that its policy is to prevent
the carrying out of the Currency
Act. A suspicion that the Govern
ment is really desirous of obstruct-
ing the wish Of the people and the
will of the Legislature in this matter,
is strengthened by the evaslve and
shuffling tenor of its ''Declaration"
in reply to the committee. In q
spirit of concession the commit
tee asks the Government to fix
definite time for the redemption of
the certificates in gold. The Gov
ernment responds with an assurance
not, however, in any binding form
that security will be afforded fol
the "ultimate redemption " of the
paper in gold coin. The committee
proposal includes scheme for the
redemption of a portion, if not all
of the certificates by leading finan
cial houses, provided the latter arr
secured by deposit of sixteen per
cent on all silver coins held agains
such certificates. The Government
declares it will make the requirct
deposit, but gives not the shadow o
a promise, not to mention guaran
tee, that such deposit will be hell
inviolable, or that, in default of gol'
redemption either at definite tim
or ultimately" the margin o
sixteen percent will accrue to tn
holders of certificates. One othe
point is worthy of note. The Gov
ernment has declared the ratio be
tween the gold and silver currenc
to be sixteen percent. In view G
this, how do the Ministers eXpeC
business to run smoothly until til
Legislature meets, while gold is tn
legal tender for all sums above te
dollars and the preponderating cuI
rency in circulation is silver?

circulate silver certificates above ten
dollars denomination os equivalent
TO gold, if the Government will I'M
dortakc to deposit margin of six
teen per cent on all silver coins held
against said certificates
Provided. however, that the treas
ury will make due provision for the
redemption of the certificates in gold
on some definite and reasonable
terms.
1t appears TO us to be at the very
foundation of any system that the
holder of a certificate should have
absolute confidence in his ability to
get gold, in an emergency, for his
paper. We therefore suggest that
The Government undertake that, in
the event Of the gold in the treasury
being exhausted, they will pay, with
in definite time from presentation
(say sufficient to enable the Govern
ment to procure the gold), all GER
tificates in gold.
As check upon indiscriminate
withdrawal of gold we would pro-
pose that all applications for re-
demption of certificates in gold be
made. so far as practicable, through
one or two houses-say Bishop &
Co., and w. G.. Irwin d Co.
1t is further understood that the
Government will consent to the ap-
pointment by the Chamber of Com
merce of Committee as Auditors
of the accounts known in the Treas
ury books as "Certiiicates of De-
posits," and especial Deposits, -
and that this Committee shall have
access at all times to the accounts
and the coins represented by them.
1t is further agreed that any viola,
ton of the spirit of this agreement
shall free all parties concerned from

A New Fable.

Once upon a time Donkey fell
into deep hole, and, after nearly
starving caught sight of a passing
Fox, and implnrel the stranger TO
help him out.
II am too small TO aid you" said
the fox" but will give you some ad-
vice. Only a few rods away is big
strong elephant. Call to him and
he will get you out in a jitfy."
After the fox had gone, the don
KEY thus reasoned to himself.
II am very weak for want oi
food. Every move / make is just ST.
much additional loss of strength.
If / raise my voice to call the ele-
phant shall be weaker yet. No ]
will not waste my substance that
way. 1t is the duty of the elephant
to come without calling" So the
donkey settled himself back and
eventually starved to death.
Long afterwards the fox, on pass
ing the hole, saw within it 9
whitening skeleton, and remarked
If it be true that the souls of an
imals are transmigrated into men
that donkey will became one o.
