LAST September this paper published
an exclusive account OF the assault
made by Joseph Sweeney upon little
girl IN the suburbs of the city. The
particulars were revolving in the ex-
trenie, but they were shorn of their
offens:veness and the facts made pub.
lie. All the city papers except The Even.
ing Leader branded the story as false
and sensational. A few days later
Sweeney was arrested. His trial is now
in progress in the superior court and
every material fact published by the
then Telcgram-Hersld has been cor
roborated. Ali tins goes to show that
if the people want the local news and
want it reliable, THE HERALD is the
only morning medium in which it can
be found.

Schemes without number are
launched upon congress for the i'm
provsment OF our currency SYSTEM
Hardly . session passes but some
farmer from the west offers bill, the
terms of which involve . complete
revolution in the present system.
These currency tInkers are visionary
men who conceive the details of plans
so imprsc,icable ana absurd as 10 pro-
woke both ricieuls and contempt.
''whiskers" PETER. the great tinancier
from Kansas, has submitted bill pro-
yiding for - new issue Of currency TO
be used in paying universal pensions to
the soldiers of the civil war. His plan
IS TO print ana lssGe legal tender notes
on . sort of decimal schedule. They
are TO be of twenty-eight different de-
nominations. from one mill TO FIVE
thousand dollars, described and named
as follows: zone. two, three and five
mills; one, two, three ana FIVE cents;
one, two. three and five dimes; one.
two, three and five dollars; one. two,
three and five eagles; one. two, three
and five eondors or hundred dollars.
and one, two, three and five talents or
thousand dollars. respectively" These
propositions are mischievous for their
tendency is to unsettle and dis
turb public confidence. Barring
q few incongruities in our present sys-
tenn, which time will correct, our cur
rency answers every demand made by
the people. IL il were more evenly
distributed it would he better, but that
it is not Is owing to the individual
rather than to the system of making
and circulating it. PETERS bill bids
for attention, because it purports to be
q pension measure, but the day is dis
tant when the government will issue
money for any class of its citizens.
This measure, together with Stanford g
loan bureau heresy, will sleep the
sleep OF death in q senate pigeon-nole.
