,STLVER-SONE RESULTS.

When the Republican party agreed upon
and passed a Silver bill in spite OF Democratic
opposition and the camor for free coinage
TIE TRIBUNE remarked that financial meas
ures of the Republican party usually turned
ont safe and beneficial. This measure was
sayagely attacked from several directions
Democrats and free coinage fanatics declared
that il was a cheat and would be frutlesS
il would not raise the price of silver, nor I'M
prove the markets for products Conserva-
tive gold extremists declared that it was n
dangerous measure, which would produce sud
den and enormous inhation drive gold out of
the country, and bring everything to specie
basis speedily.
At first the circumstances happened to bring
out the unfavorable possibilities Of the meas
ure somewhat strongly. Doubtless it did les
sen the prospective demand for gold Ill this
country. and so rendered exports of that metal
more likely to occur when especially demand
ed abroad revolution i'll the Argentine
Republic brought about very suddenly de-
mand for gold in Europe, and millions were
shipped This was called by some result Of
the Slver'bill, but that was only one OF many
circumstances which rendered gold exports at
the time unusually easy, while the immediate
and controlling cause was a foreign revolution
which had nothing to do with the silver ques-
ton. Evidence is found in the fact that, while
circumstances within this country remained
unaltered as to the prospective demand for
gold, the abatement Of the Argentine neces-
