ENGLAND AND SILVER.

1t has been with certain class of Mug
wumps and Democrats, who apparently
desire things to go as badly as possible
that they may have the better excuse for
grumbling, favorite objection against
Mr.. Springer's proposition for an inter-
national bimetallic conference, that
England would not agree to any PROPOSE
tion for the rehabilitation of silver. A
conference, they say, would result
merely in time wasted as if delay were
not better than unwise action such as
the majority in the lower House seem
ow in the temper to take.
The News has steadily insisted that
this view of the case is utterly wrong, and
that the present moment is auspicious
for international action, as Great Britain
must wish to see the silver question
settled once for all in the interest of
commercial exactitude and especially for
the sake of stable rupee for Indian nse.
We are glad to see this view of the case
taken also by so excellent an authority as
the London especial of the New York
Sun, who cabled yesterday:
Thanks to the discussions and reports in
the newspapers and to the propaganda of
the Bimetallic League, thousands of Eng
lishmen now take an intelligent interest
in the silver question where formerly
scores displayed but n languid curiosity.
This beng so, and seeing there are in the
present Cabinet at least three bimetalists,
more or less pronounced, the moment is
sngularly propitious for asking the Brit
ish government 20 take part in the Inter
national Currency Congress. If, as it is
reported here, such an invitation has al
ready been sent it will almost certainly
be accepted, and it is equally sure that
the Liberal government which may be in
power few months hence will have moth
ing TO do with anything which savors of
bimetalism.
Mr.. Springer's proposition for an inter-
national conference was an excellent
one-none the less excellent that it was
made by a Democrat for the purpose of
extricating his party from serious
dilemma.

pleasant and gentlemanly habits to walk
about the ball room with his eyes on
the awkward squad, occasionally telling
amember that if he couldn't swing his
partner without stumbling he might bet
ter stay off the floor. AS result OF this
friendly disposition there has been so
much sulking in corners that German
court ball has become of late a pecu-
liarly interesting spectacle.
The new order to the guard comman-
ders is resulting in a revival OF the waltz
drill, in which the young, mustached
defenders of the fatherland lay aside
their arms, put on full dress uniforms
and pirouette before past masters OF the
divine art of dancing i'll the billiard
room of the Casino until they obtain
certificates from their bearded and griz-
zled colonels of their ability to glide and
spin well enough to appear in the august

THE DYER MEMORIAL,

In accordance with its policy OF Civ
ing both sides hearing, the NEWS has
printed considerable correspondence
bearing upon the question whether Mr..
Kitson's design for the Dyer Memorial is
or is not "original," and also the expla-
nation by the commissioners how the
second design came to be drawn.
1t is doubtless well that there should
be the fullest discussion of all proposed
public monuments and statues, but we
cannot see that shadow of blame rests
upon Mr.. Kitson, if he was expressly
hidden to design something upon the
general lines followed by his second
statue. Nor can the commissioners be
blamed for giving the order to Mr.. Kit
son if in their opinion he was the one
best fitted to fill it satisfactorily. The
whole question is one of taste and judg-
ment, not ethics.
OF course it would be well if public
art work could always be so original as
not TO suggest such comparisons as are
inevitable when Mr.. Kitson's sketch is
placed beside that of Guillon. But is it
not likely that the commissioners fully
realize this and have done the best pos
sible in choosing from among the alter
natives presented TO them2

DAVE HILL sees the handwriting on
the wall. If full Cleveland delegation
is sent to Chicago TO contest with the
Hill men from New York, it is not at all
a violent supposition that it may be
seated in preference to the midwinter
delegation, Cleveland's friends outside
the Empire State being very possibly in
a majority. Hill has given the game TO
his adversary, or he has taken it out of
the hands Of both of them. Dark horses
are going into training.

"E. G.. d." whom we surmise to be
the same "E. G.. d." who long supplied
the New York Times with Albany and
Washington correspondence, had a let
ter in yesterdays Journal calculated to
make the judicious grieve. 1t repeated
the rather unnecessary canard that
President Harrison knew of Chile's
apology before his own message was
sent TO Congress, and to this added a
choice bit of scandal concerning Mr..
Blaine. This story, obtained no one
knows how, is to the effect that Mr..
Blaine 'buncoed" Montt-that is the
precise word used-by betraying his con-
fidence, by lying, deceit, double-dealing
and treachery.
OF course, this precious Sunday read
ing for Mugwumps presumes a consider
able degree of rascality on the part of
both Mr.. Blaine and the President, but
a little difficulty like that doesn't matter
TO 'E. G.. D." The malaria of the Poto-
mac flats has had a very bad effect upon
him. indeed, when it makes such lima
ture chronic.

EMPEROR WILLIAM As A DANCING
MASTER.

The Emperor William is man of con-
siderable range of mind. Having over
hauled his kitchen and seen that the
royal pots and pans were secured TO his
satisfaction he has now turned his atten-
tion to the proper execution Of the waltz
at court balls.
Report saith not whether his consort,
the fleshy and somewhat stolid-looking
Empress. has recently suffered the mis-
fortune of having her imperial train
trodden on by an awkward lieutenant or
captain. but certain il is that the docad-
ence of the waltz ameng the officers Of
the guard in Potsdam and Berlin has
moved the Kaiser 90 admonish com
manders of the society regiments that
men who cannot dance well will be ex.
cluded hereafter from court balls.
William has been connoisseur OF
waltzing since he was little boy in
petticoats, and it has been one Of his

commanding voice in the pulpit of the
Christian world.
On this side of the water his nearest
parallel is Talmage, but Spurgeon had
one great advantage over the American
preacher in his wonderful voice, sweet,
sympathetic and appealing at times
clear as flute notes, or again reyerberant
as trumpet calls. The tabernacle was a
power in Britain, power in the world,
in a sense that never could be affirmed
of the big, loosely-bound, debt-burdened
institution in Brooklyn. Spurgeon hated
debt as he loved light and air.

AS 1 WAS SAYING.

A friend of mine told me n queer story
about about eX-President Cleveland the
other day. do not vouch for its truth,
but the man is known TO be truthful gen
orally. He said he was at private Spir-
itualistic seance Various dead friends"
had been called up and had responded to
commonplace remarks by rappings, and
sundry tables and chairs had walked
about in an undignified manner.
Other persons were asked to name
friends from whom they wanted to hear
but could not because they were dead.
Ny friend asked to hear from Grover
Cleveland. The medium said he wasn't
dead. My friend said he saw in the pa
pers that Cleveland was politically dead,
but the medium replied that man politi-
cally dead was beyond her power of res
direction. She could call up spirits, but
Cleveland in his present state was too
much" for her.
