A o. SOCIETY.

The New York Herald says there has
just been organized at Washington THE
Society Of Loyal Volunteers" the pur-
pose of which is to oppose the granting
Of pensions to any veterans. no matter
how badly wounded they may have been,
who are able to support themselves.
Such an association has long been
needed as a centre on which the anti
pension swindle sentiment Of the old
army can rally. Many thousands Of vet
Grams feel keenly the degradation to
which the scramble for pensions has
brought good and bad alike, and they
would like to put themselves IN record
against soldering for revenue only.
Money alone paid no man worth living
for risking his life in the field, nor can
any possible pension make the compen-
sation sufficient. No one opposes the
%pensioning Of veterans who are needy
and helpless, but there, say many woun.
ded survivors of the war, the pension
list should stop.
1t is to be hoped that branches Of the
new society will be formed all over the
country, SO that Congress may learn how
largely the old army is opposed to beg
gary. Once men went on the pension
list because it was in some sort a roll o
honor, but that was before it fell init
the hands Of the claim agents.

THE SCHOOLS,

The time of the year has come around
again when schools open, and when the
boys and girls give benediction to the
streets as they go to and come from
school swinging their satchels, and filing
the streets with voices merrier than the
lark. great thing is the modern school,
but the greater thing still is the boy be-
hind the satchel. He Is full of baseball
aud marbles, he is given to robbing birds
nests, climbing trees. tearing his clothes,
having his nose barked, and having inf.
mite trouble making clear explanations
to his mother why he is what he is. But
they are great chaps after all, and a per-
son wants to live in a country where
they do not exist to understand what a
blank and fool old world this would be
without children.
The school is an institution, which, as
a rule, first puts its gentle check on the
bits Of the boys enthusiasm. and turns
it in another channel which leads it up
TO make what was the crown and glory Of
the boy, and the crown and glory Of the
man. The ancient world did many splen.
did things; its manhood developed in
many exalted forms. All the nights and
depths of oratory were explored and its
full power brought out; in many of the
arts there was a grace attained which
modern men dare not hope to emulate,
Poetry had its birth and grew to full
perfection; there were soldiers as great
as the modern world can boast, but there
was nothing like u mission schools, ant
in no other way is the superior grace o.
modern civilization any better illustrated
than in that one thing-our schools com
pared with the ancient schools. Sal

The free coinage of silver, says the
Denver Mining Journal, and making it
equal, as money, with gold, is the best
possible safeguard against a panic. Long
ago, because Of the foolish gold standard,
Rothchild nearly created a panic on the
Bank of England by quietly getting pos.
session of all the Bank of England notes
his numerous agents could procure, pre-
senting them one at a time at the Office
in Threadneedle street, receiving gold in
exchange. This was kept up for several
days. and the Bank Of England, afraid
that Rothchild intended to get a corner
on gold somewhere, made IN amicable
arrangement whereby the bank accorded
him special privileges. Had there been
a silver as well as 3 gold basis, Rothchild
would not then bave been able to lord it
over the Bank Of England as he did. Sill
yer would not have been too bulky, too
unwieldy for the purpose. Let us have

FRONT.

The American Banker, . New York
financial paper, has q rumor from Wash
ington that President Harrison is going
to change front on the silver question.
That journal claims TO have well authen.
ticated information that the President in
his Forthcoming message to Congress will
recommend the coinage Of all the silver
produced in this country. The reason
for the change, however. is not Q worthy
one. The President sees the growing
silver sentiment in the country and fears
the passage by Congress of an unlimited
coinage bill. As 9 mean Of defeating so
radical q measure the efforts OF the Ad-
ministration will be used to call q halt 81
the American product. There is also
politics in the scheme personal to the
President. His chances will be greatly
improved for q denomination by making
some concessions to the silver men Of the
West. Otherwise he might be seriously
ham pered in the National Convention.
We shall expect to see the silver question
settled next Winter, on the line of the
American product. and then the decks
will be clear for a straight out Eight on
the single issue Of the tariff in 1892.
Both parties are interested in getting the
battle into this shape. And with silver
out of the way there is nothing more
certain than that Cleveland and Harri-
son will be the standard bearers OF their
respective parties. II seems to rs that
such an outcome is in strict keeping with
the logic Of the situation. How the is
sue will fnally terminate no man is yet
justified in making a prediction, but the
history OF politics in this country shows
that in a half dozen previous contests
over the tariff the people have always in
the end decided in favor Of lower duties.
II will be contrary to all other prece-
dents il they do not do SO again.

The Washington correspondent oil the
ST. Louis Republic does not hesitate to
charge that Minister Egsn's ~psrtissnship
in the Chilisn difficulties was influenced
by considerations Of a decidedly substan'
tial character. He goes further, and in
Inmates that Secretary Blaine wss also

respondents story il appears that Egan's

in the working Of nitrate beds, and 1t was
tacitly understood that in return for these
the friendship Of the United States should
be guaranteed the de facto government.
Blaine Was a party to the bargain and

from the revolutionists' ENJOYS at Wash

w...,o.y rELEaRAPHINe.

Anew method Of tslegraphing has been
tried At Chicago. One Of the operators
sat at an ordinary receiver placed n an
Office on the first floor Of 3 building. ne
used the Morse alphabet and tapped the
message along . rubber tube to his com
panion on the third floor. The vibration
Of the air in the tube caused a mica disc
in the receiver upstairs to autter tremn-
Iously, aud this being connected by an
electric wire caused the hammer to tap
the message clearly and loudly on the
receiver.
This was the only place in which cleo
tricity was used, and one cell was found
sufficient to work the machinery neces-
sary to receive the message that the vi
brsting air sent along the tube. 1t is by
vibration that the inventors propose to
reyolutionize the present system OF teie-
eraphy. They claim that with their sys.
tenn the present expensive method OF in
sulation with the electric telegraph will
be entirely done away with, and that
the risk Of swapping or breaking by over
charges OF electricity will be reduced to
a minimum.
The men who invented this system
are William Z. Sloane, John E. Hughes
aud Orrin S. Reed. Sloane and Hughes
are gasitters. Thus far messages have
been sent through tnbes only l,22O feet
long, but experiments will soon be made
between cities remote from each other.

messages can be sent as clea.ly
