There is but one condition upon
which we would consent to Q con-
tinued demonetization of silver, and
that is that gold shall also be demone-
tized. While the two metals are used

Gold Is not recognized by any value
save that made by law. which is its
stamped value, that regulates it. Silver
was made a commodity in 1873, hence
it fiuctuates in price just as any other
commodity will do. Had it a fixed
value by the fat of the government it
would be as stable in price as it was
before 1878 when its value was so reg
ulated. Weekly Toiler.

Silver Demonetixation.

When silver was demone tized 1t was
at q premium over gold. 1t was de-
monetized by the perpetration of a
fraud about which no man, except
John Sherman and the clerks of the
finance committees and engrossing
clerks of congress, know anything.
Yet while such is the fact, how strange
it is that an effort to restore silver to
the same position it occupied at
the time of the perpetration of
this fraud should meet such vio-
lent opposition! How strange it is
that such great calamities are
ascribed to return to the same happy
condition, when no calamitles existed;
but on the contrary. a most satisfac-
tory condition obtainedi Fustian and
theory have run wild in their efforts to
conjure up and invent impending disas-
ters. when absolute demonstration and
experience show that all their appre.
tensions are as baseless as the fabric
of dream and rs hollow as John Sher-
mans soul of an honest prompting in
behalf of the people. Alliance Herald.

Proposed Dropping Of a Department-Ehe

CHICAGO, Oct. f5.-The congressional
loan Of S., 600, 900 to the worlds fair,
Maj Handy and his department of pub
licity and promotion, and Director
General Davis report were considered
by the board Of control of the national
commission, which went into session
for its October meeting yesterday. At
the same time the Chicago directors
held a session Of their executive COM
mittee upon practically the same sub
jects.
During the session of the directors a
request was sent to the board of con-
troll for q special joint conference of
the board of reference and control to
be held Friday, to consider, it is said,
the a5visability of abolishing the entire
department of publicity and promotion
Of which Maj. Handy who draws $500
a year from the directory and has a
large staff of assistants is chief Presl-
dent Baker, Director Walker and others
seemingly have an idea that the world S
fair does not need press department
anv longer and that the department
chiefs can furnish all needful informa-
ton to exhibitors and the newspapers.
The board of control after discussing
the loan question concluded that the
committee on legislation had exclusive
jurisdiction in the matter. Commits
sioner Massey, who is on that commit
tee, said the draft of the loan bill to
be presented to congress would prob
ably originate in the Chicago directory
| and then come before the committee
on legislation. When this stage should
be reached the members of the national
commission would be prepared to say
whether they would support the bill as
| framed.
The local directory are understood to
favor Secretary Butterworth as the
right man to conduct the negotiations
for the loan before congress The
members Of the board of control are
said to be against his selection. OPP
position to Secretary Butterworth is
represented as hinging to some extent
on the fact that he. instead of one OF
the national commissioners. was made
chairman ot the recent special commss'
! sicn 10 Europe.
