The New Treasury Notes.

We gather from Judge Emerson's ar
ticle, in our issue of October Sth, that
the principal difference between US is
as to the effect of Sherman's bullion
purchase bill. The difference between
the silver coin certificate and the
treasury note of July 14th, 1890, ap-
pears from a careful reading of the
face of each. The one calls for silver
dollars that are legal tender, and,
therefore, no legal tender attachment
is necessary to the certificates; the 9TH
er, for coin. Each silver coin certiti-
cate is the representative of certain
number of silver dollars, which are
thereby virtually putt circulation.
Each of the silver bullion treasury
notes calls for coin (either gold or sill
ver), but does not necessitate the issu-
ance of an additional dollar of the
money contemplated by the Consti-
tuition. True, there is a provision I'M
der which this bullion may be coined,
but it is entirely optional with the
Secretary of the Treasury. With an
administration unfriendly to silver,
| it is not probable that single ounce
of it will ever take the form of money.
1t will be seen that the bullion pur-
chase bill is step in the direction of
the single gold standard and the
| withdrawal of silver from the circu-
lation of the country. The new notes
are promises on the part of the govern
ment to pay, out of it's availa BILE re-
sources; the old notes are certificates
of deposit. Two objects were intend
ed to be accomplished by the bullion
purchase bill: first, to placate the sill
Yer producer; second, to pacify the
people by deluding them into the belief
that the coinage of silver, practically,
has not been in terfered with. Ifthere
was no disposition to discriminate
against silver, why was the Bland
Allison act repealed? The Sherman
act Is sham and a pretence, under
cover of which the plutocracy are en-
deavoring to allay the feeling that has
been aroused against their attempts
to drive silver from the monetary sys-
tenn of this country.
Judge Emerson takes exception to
the CHASING of the new treasury notes
with checks and other commercial pa
per. The Judge will admit that they
are only promises to pay money, with
a legal tender attachment, and not
money in the full sense of that term.
They are not silver certificates in any
sense; the government need not nee
essariIy have silver bullion behind
them; that, as has been said before,
is only purchased to keep the mine
owner quiet. Practically they are like
commercial paper-checks, etc. Ifthe
ability of the government to pay
should ever be doubted, they would

per, n ptwithst landing their legal ten
der attachment. A bank check is on
ly an order for money. These notes
are only promises to pay money, and
not an additional dollar has been
placed in circulation by their issue.
On the other hand, each silver coin
certificate is proxy for the amount
of silver dollars called for by its face,
and can not be issued without that
number of silver dollars being in ex-
istence. Every one issued shows that
actual dollars are held at the treasury
for it's redemption. Silver, once coin
ed, is in very different position from
silver bullion. That is in the condi-
ton of any other commodity, subject
to the fluctuation of the market.
The 4l2s grain silver dollar is dol
lar-nothing more or less-and all
this talk about the eighty-cent dollar
is simply rot. If silver was remone-
tized and gold demonetized, the value
of the gold in gold dollar would be
no greater than the value of the silver
in silver dollar with silver demone-
tized. If the of use broad cloth for
wearing apparel should be prohibited,
or it should be decred that no more
leather should be made into boots,
would not the price of the two articles

generations, has been to furnish mon

manner, its price is, of course, affected.

scarcer, and of course its value is in.

Mr.. Mills, as Judge Emerson says,
is an able publicist, but, like all other
men, is human. In criticising Mr..
Mills we do not wish to detract from
the tariff issue. AS we have said be-
fore, we are glad that we agree with
Judge Emerson SO fully as to the inn
portance of that issue; but when
guarding against robbers, while it is
of vital Importance that the front
door should be fastened securely, it
will not do to leave the rear entrance
unbolted.
In conclusion, we would ask Judge
Emerson if the new treasury notes
cannot be retired as fast as they are
taken in at the treasury department.

The st. Louis Republic never waits
to be driven along the path of pro
gress by sharp competition, but keeps
so far in the lead that competition is
an impossibility. Its first bold and
original departure was the publication
of its weekly in five separate edi tions
-one for Missouri, one for Illinois, one
for Texas, one for Arkansas and Kan
sas, and another for the rest of the
Union. Next it made the Weekly Re
public a seni-Weekly, issuing it every
Tuesday and Friday, in sections of six
pages each Then it established a
special Tariff Department, edited by
the Hon. w. L. Wilson, one of the
ablest of the Democratic leaders in
Congress. Now, it announces that
each of these striking and original
features will continue permanently,
and, in addition to all this, that two
more pages will soon be ADDED to one
issue each week, SO as to give sub
scribers to the "Twice Week" Re
public fourteen pages regularly every
week FOR ONLY ONE DOLLAR AYEAR.
Besides these special attractions,
which no other paper in the country
can offer, it's general merits as news
paper are unequaled. Sample copies
will be sent free on application.

Free trade howlers, who have so much to
say about those mckinney prices" should
study the American Economist, which in a
late issue publishes the comparative prices
of over fifty articles in common use for the
free trade year 1857, for October 1890 and
September 1891, showing these articles to be
much cheaper in every instance than they
were under free trade, and the great MAJOR
ity of them cheaper last month than they
were a year ago.-lSte. Generieue Herald.
Bro. Ernst, what do you call 'free
trader" Do you say this country had
free trade in 1857? Do you know what
you are talking about? In 1857 there
was % per cent. tariff. Do you call
shat ''free trader" Are you so igno-
rant of the history of this country
that you don't know that free trade
never did prevail here? In another
portion of your paper you give the
following reasons for being a protec-
zionist:
First-That protection has increased the
wages of American workingmen, giving them
privileges and luxurles not enjoyed by for
elSnerS.
Second-That necessaries of life, and man
ufactured projected products are as cheap
in America as in Europe.
Now answer us, in all candor, these
two questions: First-How can Pro-
lection give American workingmen
higher wages when (G it brings down
the prices of the articles they manu-
facture, and (b) it allows free trade in
all the ports to the incoming "pauper
labor" of all the world? Second-If
the articles protected are sold as cheap
here as the same articles are in Europe,
whence comes the necessity of protect
ing the men who manufacture them?
Come. give us straightforward, honest
answers, and no lodging!

1t has been generally supposed says
recent issue of To-Day, that the new
immigration law gave the inspectors
power to pass upon immigrants and
to decide whether they belonged to
the excluded classes. But a judge of
the United states District cour of New
York has held in a recent case that,
instead of an Immigrant bling COM
PEELED to prove that he is entitled to
admission, it must be shown that he
is an undesirable citizen. The burden
of proof is placed on the inspectors.

cannot keep him out, even if he lands

From 1916 to 1859 it was only g per

would be the feature of this days hearing of
this celebrated case.
Many letters signed ''wilson," the name
which Capt. verney is charged with assuming,
were identified as being in Capt Verney's hand
writing.
The hall porter Of a fashionable club testified
to the fact that letters addressed to ssWilson"
were duly forwarded at Capt. verney's
request to the latter's various addressed
This testimony seemed to have con-
siderable effect upon the friends of Capt. Yer
ney who were present in court and the pris-
oner's assurance seemed to be visibly weaken
ing. But this evidence had mild effect in
comparison with the great sensation
which was caused when q woman named Louise
Adeline, the keeper Of hotel situated in the
Rue LATTE, Paris. testified to the fact that
Capt. Verney had called upon her ON seven
or eight different occasions and asked her
to procure for him two or three
girls, promising her 100 francs If she succeeded.
The witness added that in spite of the captain
solicitations and the Inducements which he
held forth she positively refused to undertake

Inspector Byrnes Thinks That He Has se-

New YORK, April 3o.-Inspector Byrnos has
at last fastened the crime for the murder Of
Carrie Brown. The murderer is Frenzy No. 1
who was arrested on Friday night less than
twenty-four hours after committing the crime,
and who has been under lock and KEY ever
since. On the night Of the murder Frenchy
No. i occupied room SO In the East River Hotel
with a woman by the name of Mary Ann Lopez
Ibis room was across the hall from that occu-
pied by the Brown woman and her unknown
companion.
From information in the possession Of the
police 1t appears that the murdered woman's
companion left her some time before 1 O'Clock
on Friday morning. George Francois (Frenchy
NO. II had been at one time a lover of the old
woman, but for some time had become insanely
Jealous OF her. He heard her companion leave
the room and shortly afterward he got up. leav-
ing bis room mate, Mary Lopez, asleep, and
crossing the hall deliberately strangled and
then disemboweled his victim. This is the
story of the police, and is substantiated by the
following facts:
When Frenchy No. / had completed his muir
derous work he recrossed the hall and entered
the room No. 3d. In that room he left the evil
dences Of his guilt. When the police made
their investigation traces of blood were to be
found on every side The only chair which the
room contained was covered with blood
smeared over it from the clothes the murderer
wore, he having sat down upon it when he en-
tered the room. The bed clothes were found
to be covered with blood, the murderer some
time during the night having thrown
himself upon the bed. His stockings, he hav-
ing removed his shoes to do the bloody work.
were soaked with blood and his clothing was
also covered with blood. On the walls and
ceiling Of the little room many small spots Of
blood were found, the man having evidently
entered the room with his hands reeking with
blood and snapped his fingers to get rid Of it.
Scrapings from under the mans nails are said
by chemists to contain blood.
