SILVER ESTABLISHING ITSELF

The results'of the new Silver bill are al
ready beginning to make their appearance,
although the ink IS scarcely dry on the pres
idential signature which made it law, and
there are many other ultimate consequences
which are giving indications Of their early
Modification. These results are not what
the gold bugs, looking at the matter through
Wall street glasses, predicted they would be.
In fact, they are just the contrary. During
the discussion which preceded legislation
we were told by 6nanciers, who claim to
have long range vision, that any thorough
effort on the part Of the United States to re-
monetize silver would result in this country
being made dumping ground for the silver
of foreign countries. Instead Of this being
the fact, however, large and steady stream
OF silver is being drawn from US. Last week
the kilograms announce that over one and
quarter millions Of ounces were shipped to
England, and it is expected that a similar
amount will be sent away this week.
What IS the cause Of this movement 1t is
certainly not SO plain that he who runs may
read, but it requires no extraordinary mental
effort to enable one to realize that our favor
able legislation has not merely strengthened
the value of the metal but has gone long
way toward establishing i, at its true value
as circulating medium. The orders for the
shipments of silver to which we are now al
luding come from England, and England, or
world. If q compromise measure, even be-
fore it goes into effect, can restore confidence
and establish the market in the financial
metropolis, what would be the result Of leg
.islation OF an absolutely friendly and deter
mined nature? The query suggests an an
swer.
The friends Of silver have every reason to
be pleased with the outlook. Although on
ly given partial show, the metal whose
cause they are advocating is establishing it.
self; it is forcing its own way to the front as
"a circulating medium whose value has been
temporarily impaired, but not destroyed, by
artificial means; the gloomy representations
of the Financial magnates" have been so
speedily set at naught by the unanswerable
logic Of events that their mutterings will in
future carry less weight, and they will no
longer be able to scare Eastern opinion into
opposing the interests of the great American
,minerrl industry.-S. f. Pest.

MANDAMUS PROCEEDINGS.

Tuesday morning Messrs. WOODBURY. and
Coffin appeared before the Board Of State
Examiners and asked that they advertise the
Constitutional Amendments voted on at the
special election Of 1889. The Board, repre-
scented by Governor Stevenson and Attorney
General Alexander, declined to order the
amendments advertised again and mand anus
proceedings were at once begun in the Su-
preme Court.
Messrs. Woodburn and Coffin attacked the
.consttutionaiity Of the special election law
passed by the last Legislature, on the grounds
that there was no proper provision made for
registration at the Constitution provided
They claimed that if the election was void
it was time TO find it out now so that the de-
fects could be remedied at the next general
election.
Many of the amendments adopted by the
people were Of great importance. There
was so much difference Of opinion regarding
the matter that no one could be certain when
sthe next Legislature met.
The attorneys presented long array OF
authorities to show that the law was not in
accordance with the provisions of the Con-
stitution relating to elections and if the dead
registration list of 1857 could be galvanized
into life, then why not that Of 1882
Attorney General Alexander admitted that
the question was a very serious one, but that

them in good faith and the result was final.

1t is not many years ago people travelled on
horseback or by stages; now fifty miles an hour
is not fast enough for them. Formerly people

destination; now the telegraph flashes thought
around the world. Formerly doctors bled their
patients for nearly every complaint; now they
use advanced science of the highest order.
