country. Such spectators could marx up the
price at their pleasure Until the mines OF this
country produce in excess of the quantity re-
ouired for use in the arts, as much as So4, 0OO,-
600 yearly, the Government would have to pay
any arbitrary price that might be fixed abroad
because obliged to buy. The mines of this
country last year produced more than ever
before. but even then the product in bullion
value was probably not more than SOB, OOO,-
900. and from this must be deducted about
IS. 900 900 used in the arts, according to Mint
estimates.
I'm comparison with Mr.. WINDOWS plan this
bill is calculated to force a rejection of silver
coins and notes from the bankabe currency
of this country. For with a probability that
the notes might have to be redeemed in stand
ard dollars. there would Immediately spring up
a desire to get gold for other lawful money
Mr. Window would make bullion notes re-
dccmable in silver bullion only, unless the
Government should see fit to pay gold, and
thus would prevent any desire to get the notes
redeemed at all As to the amount OF cur
rcncy TO he added, his bill would draw into the
Treasury all the bullion produced in this coun-
trv less the quantity required for use In tho
Senate bill would make it a cast-iron rule that
the Secretary should purchase S54, 900
each year. and issue an equivalent amount OF
notes.
Mr.. WINDOWS plan contempates notes which
would be of equal value in all countries in the
civilized world because everywhere emitting
the holder to n certain gol value in silver
bullion. But the notes proposed in the Senate
bill would be of questionable value from the
start. oven in this country because they could
be redeemed in standard dollars worth 30
cents or moro on every dollar less than their
face. 1t would be grave mistake to issue
any more currency of such uncertain quail
ity. The Senate ought, if it is to propose
an addition TO the currency, at least TO pro-
pose an addition of dollars unqucstionably
equal in value TO the other money now in cir
culation and an addition which would not
impair the value of considerable portion OF
the currency in use.

MORE SHIPS FOR TIE NAVY.

Senator IIale's bill authorizing the conStruc-
ton of additional warships should not be con-
founded with the report of the Naval Policy
Board. That ambitious document represented
the tastes and fancics of group Of naval
officers. They are men Of distinguished ability,
and the results of their deliberations, whether
Congress decides to build one ship or five hun
drcd, will be of great advantage. The work
Of construction has been hitherto experimental
and without any definite system. We have
gone as far as is wise upon those lines The
time has come when decisions must be reached
as to how much and what sort Of a naval cStab-
lishmcnt the country should have. Secretary
Tracy has expended much labor upon invcSti-
cations intended to enable the Government to
come to such decisions. The work performed
by the Policy Board was part OF these in
designations, but it must not be assumed that
the Department indorses the Boards conclu-
sions With many of them, undoubtedly Sec
rotary Tracy agrees. With several he has dis
tinctlv said he does not agree. II has been
repeatedly affirmed as the judgment of the Ad-
ministratiOn that however large the plan Of
construction NAV be in the contemplation OF
the Government whatever final results may
lie sought. no Congress should be asked to APP
proprate for any considerable term of years.
This is sound and wise. 1t is desirable to
make all possible haste in adding to the Navy,
for notwithstanding the fleet recently built the
old ships are going out of commission faster
than new ones are coming in. But there is
neither use nor propriety in authorizing ahead
of the capacity of our shipyards. They should
all be kept hard at work until the Navy has
become satisfactory. Senator liale's bill is
conceived in this spirit IL represents the views
Of the Senate Naval Committee and OF the Adj
ministration. 1t aims to make good begin
ming Of the work outlined in Secretary Tracys
report. Eight battle ships, two armed. coast
defenders, three gunboats and five torpedo
boats are authorized. Thus FAR we have been
building cruisers mainly, in times OF peace the
most useful type of vessel. 1t is now proposed
TO turn to other lines Of construction. so that

THE SILVER BILLS.

The obvious and sufficient objection to the
Silver bill reported from the Senate Finance
Committee is that it provides for the issue Of
another great body of notes rcdccmabc in gold,
and therefore dependent for their value upon
the same gold reserve which alone supports the
other paper circulation. 1t will be said in an
swer that the notes contemplated may be paid
in any lawful money, including standard silver
dolars But Senators surely must be aware
that single payment of standard dollars to
a creditor demanding other money would pre-
cipitate a break between silver and gold which
would mean nothing less than bankruptcy Of
the Government.
The proposed notes are to be issued, accord
ING to the Senate bill, at the rate Of $500
900 per month. This is considerably more
than the bullion value of all silver produced
in the country, if the quantity used in the arts
be deducted and the obvious purpose is to
compel the United States TO buy from foreign
countries, at any price it may have to pay, a
part Of the silver required. This would put the
Government at the mercy of spectators in
silver abroad DO il observed. and not in this

the Navy as it grows may be useful in all
emergencies, and may contain vessels adapsed
to every kind of service.
Some objection has been made to the build
ing of battle ships. 1t is urged that they are
too costly, too heavy, and not necessary Tor
our service. Just how any marked distinction
can be made between our Navy and those OF
other countries we do not see. If we need a
navy at ALL we need il to be effective against
other navies. Warships are not built for spec
tacular effect. except as the spectacle may sug
gcst prudence to those who differ from us.
They are not built for their beauty at all
events 1t may be well enough for us to adopt
our own fashions in the building OF monuments
and capitols. but we need to construct war
ships so that they will prevail over other war
ships. Then how can we wisely introduce
aesthetics into our construction plans, and make
a navy to suit our tastes regardless OF the TACT
that tbc nayics of Europe contain vessels that
can STAY beyond our range and blow us out OF
the water? The argument against the Hale
bill fails to answer this question. 1t 1ails TO
show that the main point in owning a navy
National safety-can be gained at all without
battle-ships Ii fails to show that they are too
heavy or too clumsy. or too costly. The Judg
mont of tic best authorities is that they are
going to be tremendous factor in the next
naval war and if they are we cannot afford to
be without them.
Opposition to the Hale bill is only to be
justified by rcaons of real weight. While Con
grcss is in all things its own master. ana al
though. in our system there is nothing which
imposes upon the Legislature any duty OF ohedl-
ence 10 the Executive. yet there are SUBJECTS
rs TO which each has function to perform even
before laws result from them, and upon which
concord is highly desirable. The building OF
the Navy is one of these subjects. 1t Is not
properly matter for partisan contest but
should be approached by all in that spirit from
which proceed agreement and good understand
ings. The Hale bill is the embodiment OF the
latest scientific ideas and the best judgment
after prolonged and searching Investigations
