While the dentist was talking he placed

''Now," he added, as he stuffed the young
mans mouth full Of napkins, ''open your
mouth a little wider, please"
The young man dropped his chin upon
his shirt bosom and breathed hard. The
dentist inserted the drill into the tooth and
began grinding.

ly, as he bore down on the drill with two
hundred and fifty pounds of brute force.

Revs. E. c. Oggel and j. A. Cruzan

floral offerings, and at the head
stood large cross of roses. At the
conclusion of the services, the lid of
the coffin was taken off, to allow
those present to take a last look at
the well-known features of the de-
ceased. The remains were taken to
Nuuanu Cemetery, preceded by
members of different Masonic
Lodges, and followed by a very
large number of friends in private
carriages. The services at the grave
were conducted by Pastor Oggcl and

of the earth" The bill authorizes
the renewal OF negotiations with
foreign nations. 10 cndcayor 10 get
them to open their mints TO the
4" free coinage of silver, with full
legal tender value, at an agreed
ratio to gold" In case no treaties
are made to effect that object, then
after the first of August of next
year. the law directing the coinage
of silver dollars is to be suspended.
The Times considers that the only
justification of the postponcment of
the suspension of silver coinage, lies
in the entertainment of the hope by
a certain number of law makers, that
an agreement can bc reached be-
tween sufficient number of the ma
tions of the world, for the free
coinage of legal tender silver at a
common ratio to gold, which will
keep the value Of silver fixed at the
ratio so determined. 1t, however,
regards the attempt TO bring the
other nations round to the policy
that would suit the silver men, as
useless. We give the concluding
remarks of the Times in full, for
| the benefit of those people in this
country, who look upon the Currency
Act of 1891 as measure devised
mainly for the benefit of wealthy
capitalists and spectators. There
are such people, and there are those
who know better but endeavor tc
propagate the absurd notion for pur,
poses best known to themselves -
"There is absolutely nothing in
the history of the action of the Gov
ernments of the countries consti
tuting the Latin Union,' OF ii
that of the action of the more i'm
portant Governments of Germany
and Great Britain outside the union
or in the movement of public opinion
in any of these countries, to giv'
authority to the inference that an.
such agreement can be reached. No
is there the slightest encouragement
in the history of the quiXotic expert
ment that has been tried by tn
United States for nearly eight year
to encourage the belief that such al
agreement between some OF all O
the principal commercial power
would bring about any such result
as the bi-metallists hope from it. Or
the contrary, the opinion has gaine'
ground, and has been strengthene
by our experience, that compulsor
coinage of silver at any fixed rati
to gold, while it might produce con
fusion and intensity the disturbanc
arising from other sources, cannC
{ control the causes that produce q
inequality in the purchasing powe
of the two metals, varying from tin,
to time. Instead of free coinage at
f fixed ratio, the only policy that ca
e avoid trouble is 10 accept as til
n common standard the one meta
gold, which is everywhere of lik
value, and to leave the relations {
silver to it to be regulated by til
+ laws of exchange. We shall have Il
c stcadypeace and prosperity, as f;

be done. In the meantime, if a pla

SILVER.

Mr.. Atherton has handed us an
article from the New York Times,
of Jan. 2Sth, which is headed,
"Fighting the Silver Nuisance
Our great republican neighbor-we
might almost appropriately say,
patron-is face to face with a very
serious currency question. While,
in this country, the decision in favor
of gold standard has been made,
and only awaits the convenience OF
the Government to be fully estab-
lished; in the United States, whose
gold coin is the standard measure OF
money-value for Canada on the one
hand and Hawaii on the other, there
is controversy going on, as to
whether gold should not be made the
single standard of currency for her
own people. The Times, in the
article referred to, discusses the bill
reported by Mr.. Morrill, from the
Senate Committee on Finance, for
the redemption of trade dollars and
the conditional suspension of the
coinage of standard dollars. This
measure it considers, $50 far as it
goes, q practical piece of legisla-
tion." First of several excellent
features the Times says the bill
disposes of the trade dollar ques-
ton in manner as satisfactory as
could be expected after the varied
and unusual blundering in which that
question has been involved" AS
amended by the Senate committee,
from the form in which it was re-
ceiyed from the House, the bill pro-
poses to give a standard silver
dollar for any trade dollar pre-
sented before the first of next
July at any Sub.Treasury. This
would give four months from the
first of March for the redemption oi
this unfortunate conn., and al
though spectators who had bought
up the coins to get profit would
get it, that could not well be avoided
in any measure that provided fol
relieving those who accepted thu
coins in good faith before the public
uprising against them. The bill
also provides that the redeemed trad'
dollars shall be melted up, and that
at their bullion value, they shall b
counted as part of the S2,OOO,OO
worth of silver to be coined MONTH,
into standard dollars, provided tina
not more than half million dollars
worth shall be so used in any on
month. This limitation the Time
regards as concession to the silve
men, to protect the artificial marke
provided for them at the expense c
the "helpless taxpayers. In tn
second place the bill deals with th
