ing silver. Il n true the eountry
he's for Q dozen years past bees try
Ing ussuecessfuIly 10 bring about an
International Agrsement on this
question. The earliest attempt Of
this sort wss msde In 1878. soon after
the enactment Of the Bland-Allisou
coinage Law, and another move In
the same direction was had In 1881.
Monetary conferences were held In
Paris In each Of q ose years, TO
which all the chief financial coun-
tries Of the world sent delegates.
Sill another but less formal gather
Ing Of this character took place two
or three years ago. On none OF these
occasions was there any approach
toward international harmony.
Great Britain aud Germany refused
to the end 20 commit themselves 10
the rsmonstisstion policy. In the
Beginning France and the other
nations Of the Latin Monetary
Union appeared favorable TO the
project, but at the recent conference
France assumed . less friendly atti-
tude, taking the ground that the
situation In that country had been
changed 10 such an extent In the
preceding FIVE or six years that it no
longer felt the interest In the com
pIete rehabilitation Of silver which
Il held in 1878 aud 1881.
Yet there may after all be good
ground for the report that Europe
has changed its position on this
question In the past few years. The
friends OF bItnetaIlIsm In Germany
have apparently been more active
aud hopeful recently than they were
formerly, while England seems to
have relaxed some Of Its old hostility
to silver. Hitherto that country has
been the principal stumbling block
In the way Of harmony between the
nations In this matter. IL England
had been favorable TO the scheme In
1878 or 1881. Germany's objections
would have been overcome and
silver would have been restored TO
Its old place In the circulating
medium throughout the world.
Even now Germany, France and the
rest Of Europe would follow Eng
lands lead II that country made .
move Ia this direction. With the
mints Of the chief nations nf the
world thrown open to silver free
coinage Of the white metal in the
United States would not only be SAT,
and popular, but would be demand

try. OGcOurse, In the event Of an
