SILVER sussPIAsrERs.

1t appears that the House Committee
on Banking and Currency has reported a
bill for the issuance Of a definite amount
Of fractional silver bills. They are to be
issued in denominations OF ten cents, if
teen cents, twenty-five cents and fifty
cents. Their value to be fixed by the
discretion OF the Secretary Of the Treas
ury. II he be a mar Of sense he will not
issue one Of them should the bill become
a law. The whole scheme is the merest
nonsense. 1t is simply the revival Of a
silver shinplaster Of war times. There
can be but one effect. In direct ratio
with the use CT these small bills will dis
appear from view our subsidiary silver
coin. Every n that goes into c~ircula-
tion will take the place Of a ten cent
piece, a twenty-five cent piece, or a half
dollar Of our metallic money. W. don't
know what the fifteen cent bill will sup.
plant in Nevada, where we have not yet
come down to the use of nickels. But
the whole tendency is TO displace and
make silver scarcer. Silver for change
has steadily been growing popular among
the people Of the East. They did not
see a metallic dollar for years. Custom
has a great deal to do with popularizing
a particular kind Of currency with a peo-
pie. When they get used to certain forms
Of money they are slow to abandon them.
On this Coast we never took kindly to
the greenback. The Eastern people felt
just the same about our gold and silver,
and particularly about the latter. The
use Of paper became q part Of their edu.
cation. Necessarily it required time to
overcome their ~prejudices and bring
them around to correct principles. But
for five years they have been gradually
coming to an appreciation Of silver, and
to-day the white metal is more popular
and more of it employed in the East than
at any time since the war. To drive 1t
out with shinplasters and small silver
certificates is to do the general cause Of
silver a positive injury. This is why we
opposed Senator Stewards bill, which
proposed to close down the mints and
issue certificates against the silver in
bars. There is but one true position on
the silver question, that being the de-
mand for its free and unlimited coinage.
The less paper we have the more room
there will be for our silver. Not a bill
Of any character should be issued in this
country of a less denomination than five
dollars.

Auansa,s Progressive Dinner.


After the soup had been served. and
just prior to serving the next course, the
host gave his signal and rose from his
seat. as did every other gentleman at the
table. all the ladies remaining seated.
Each gentleman then removed to the
next gentleman's seat to his right. When
this was first done, the ladies not being
let into the secret, were very much sur.
prised at the unusal conduct Of the gen.
tlemen, and could not at once compre.
bend the meaning of it; but when they
gathered its full intent, and the charm
there was in it, it was decidedly crafty.
ing to note the merriment and interest
with which they received the innovation.
just prior to the commencement Of the
next course the host gave his signal again.
and each gentleman moved to one gentle.
mans seat to his right, and so on. The
sntire setting Of the courses was 80 har.
moniously arranged that at the close Of
the dinner each gentleman had visited
for a short space every lady at the table,
and had at last returned TO her whom he
had escorted to dinner.-Atlanta Con-
stitution.

THE SUNS, CHOICE.

The New York Sun for some months
has been e~ndeavoring to start a boom for
W. T. Coleman of San Francisco for
President. There is no sincerity in the
Suns p~retensions of friendship for Cole.
man. 1t knows that he has no special
fitness or training for the Office. He is q
prudent and successful business man,
and was at the head of the Vigilantes in
1855. He has no other public record. In
like manner the Sun howled for the nom.
ination Of w. S. Holman Of Indiana
"the Great Objector"-in 1854. Holman
would have made a very good President.
but the Sun knew he was not q candidate
and that no one was for him. Its only
object was to create a diversion against
Cleveland il it could. 1t disliked Cleve.
land and did all it could to confuse the
party in its choice Of a candidate. Later
it came out vehemently for Blaine, lost
half of its subscribers. and wound up
with a big mortgage on its building. 1t is
at the same general game this year, hav.
ing picked up Coleman instead OF Hol-
man as its assumed idol. Dana, feeling
that he is not appreciated by Democrats,
has soursd on most of the leading men
of the party. Four years ago, as now,
the insane notion possessed him that If
Cleveland was out of the way he would
stand a chance himself for the Presi.
dency. That is what ails Dana and his
Sun, and is why both are for Coleman.
The first and last choice of the Sun for
President, is Charles A. Dana, its pro.
prietor.

''If Leland Stanford wants to be the

ought to get the support of the southern

abundantly possessed of the peculiar
logic that is supposed TO be most potent
with the southern republicans"
The overwhelming democratic vote of
