1t would appear, then, that the practical
fixity of the relative value of gold and sill
yer at a ratio of 15i to from 1903 to 1873
was due principally to legislation, and that
the separation OF the metals thereafter IN
relative value was likewise due in largest
part to legislation. The proposition that
an international agreement shall be re-es-
tablished bimetallism is practical con
cession to that effect, since its purpose is
to restore, if possible, "the broken link"
The link that bound gold and silver to
peter as money was law (for an agree
ment equivalent thereto) that the coinage
of both should be free at o fixed ratio OF
Isl to L. The action that broke that link,
and destroyed that heretofore existing
monetary equilibrium between the metals,
which the repeal in practice of the opera
ton of that law Would not re-enact
nent Of the law in its entirety by interna-
tional agreement restore the link aud with
il the old time monetary situation In
other words, is not either the French or
American ratio-a ratio heretofore proven
practicable'of maintenance by experience
the true one to pc returned to
fit be assumed that the relative value
Of the two metals depends more than any
thing elias on their value for the purposes
of money as hxGu ~ s--~ it would seem
| that the strongest argument sEists for the
adoption of one or other Of these ratios.
All the worlds experience has demonstrat-
ed that the true ratio lies somewhere in
the neighborhood of the French or the
American, 4 and between them there is not
any fundamental difference. Tf the choice
bs limited to these two the French .stit
would seem TO be preferable.

The demonstration OF silver did not
take from the worlds circulation the biiyer
coinage Silver has been coined since at the
same ratio. II IL estimated that there are in
round numbers, 81, ,000, 900, 900 of European
silver in use az money at the ratio OF l5a to
/. The report of the Secretary Of .he
Treasury shows our stock of silver To have
been on Noyem Der /, 1891, $3.50, 241, GA,
coined or to be coined &C the ratio Of ~ TO
l.
Now, bimstalism IL q desideratum be
cause OF the growing need Of money in the
worlds constantly increasing commerce.
Any change in the ratio towards cheapening
the gold price Of silver must result in cOp-
traction of the worlds currency and defeat
to that extent the object sought to be OBJ.
tanned by international conference. The
adoytion Of the'ratio of 10 to | instead Of 10y
TO 1 for instance, would make difference
of per cent, ia the aggregate of European
silver; that is TO say. the European stock
when recoined. as IL would hey0 TO be,
would lose from its aggregate currency
value 80, ,000. 900, and there would be tho
cost OF YecOinage in addition.
The adoption Of the ratio Of l5t TO ], on
the other hand, woEld be, ipso facto, re
monetization of the entire European stock
Of silver True the adoption OF this ratio
would necessitate the recoinage OF the
American stock, but the margin its legal
ratio I6 to ], and tho French ratio 15t to
/, amounting to per cent, would suffice
TO pay the cost OF recoinage.
As the United States are the largest sill
yer producers in the world, Is goes without
saying that the French ratio would suit
their material interests better than the
ratio now in use by themselves. The OBJ
jections that could be urged TO any partic-
ular ratio that may be suggested may be
conceded to he numerous; in other words,
bimetallism can only be established inter
nationally in the face Of appostion and by
friends; but il to be hoped that such con-
cessions may be made and that the cause
may triumph at whatever figure the ratio
may be fixed.

Their objections are based on the ground
that the property is within a district that
has already been assessed $4,000 for 10000
feet Of sewers, more than three-quarterS Of
the whole length required to reach the
waters Of the bay; thar the large and valu-

A Paving Company Asks 30 Be Paid on
a Footing with Others.


a Footing with Others.
The California Asphalt Company, whose
stradamant pavement was barred out Of the
competitive list on city paving by the oner-
GUS specifications OF the paving ordinance,
has asked the Board Of Supervisors for the
privilege of bidding on bituminous rock
pavement
I'VE propose" says the petition, 'to use
a manufactured bituminOus sand-r0ck, con-
tanning no less than II per cent Of high
grade btumeu mixed with good. clean,
sharp sand, instead Of the natural bitumin-
Gus san1-Tock as at present laid down on
our public streets"
The company saws that property-Owners
keep telling it that the city will not accept
its pavement, hence there is no use Of at
tempting to compete. The property-owners,
il claims, are prompted to say this by the
other paving companies, and the company
desires TO DO placed on an equal footing
with others 10 compete Tor the same kind
of work
