A SILVER rRoGRAMME.

Murat Halstead, in the June North
American, suggests an heroic plan to induce
England to Join with other nations In
adopting the double standard. Mr.. Hal
stead SAYS the Government has $500, 900, coo
of silver bullion, for a large proportion OF
which it has issued treasury notes at the
market value Of silver. He suggests that as
much Of this bullion as may be necessary
be thrown upon the London market. The
market price of silver might fall somewhat
under this load, but in consideration Of
Indian interests England would be bound
to hold the rice within few pence of its
market value. A depreciation of 5 pence
per ounce would cause a financial panic in
India. Four hundred million dollars worth
Of silver would call for more than $780,
OO0O00 in gold. Could England part with
this amount Of gold without producing a
greater financial crisis at home than any
possible depreciation Of silver would pro-
duce in India?
Some time since "A vell-knOwn financial
writer proposed that the Secretary of the
Treasury use his power to issue treasury
notes, payable in gold, TO furnish a fund
with which to buy S125, 000, COO or $50, 000.-
Geo OF English securities, which the banks
would have to redeem on presentation. He
estimated that the smaller sum would be
sufficient to cause a suspension OF specie
payment Mr.. Halstead's plan of selling
silver reaches for the same object through
slightly different methods. In both cases
the American Government is urged to en-
ploy its immense financial resources to
convince England that the least of two
evils that threaten her Is bimstallism.
There seems to be a very general admission
that other European nations will follow
England's lead at the International No ne-
tary Conference. Might it not be well TO
give England to understand that If she
leads Europe to refuse to establish CON-
mon ratio upon which silver may be freely
coined and circulated at par with gold the
United States will cease to bull the silver
market as it has in years past? We have
been exchanging American gold for Euro
pean silver. Might it not in such case be-
come wise policy to exchange American
silver for European gold?

CHICAGO WATER.

The Chicago Herald Of c recent date had
the following:
Forty million gallons OF diluted sewage viii be
turned into The wafer supply next Monday and
an equal amount daily thereafter The City En-
gineer has made repeated threats to open The
breakwaier crib, as though he would crafty
some spite against the people, but be has been
frightened of each time before the gates were
raised. But It Is not necessary to de-
pend upon the river for sewage, since the sewers
which drain a territory Inhabited by 200 900
PEOPLE empty into the lake. There are constant
currents up and down the shore, and the break
water crib IS in their midst. Tie results are
certain 10 be disastrous. The water Is so bad
now that 1t cannot be used with safety. Boiling
destroys the animal life in IT, but after standing
a few hours the odoIs OF decomposition are so
strong as to create disgust The bTeakwaler
crib should De opened under no circumstances.
with the possible exception OF 4 great fire, when
additional water might be needed 10 eXtln-
guish It.
This reads somewhat like articles which
from time to time appear in San Francisco
papers, which conceive that the readiest
way to get more money is to represent the
city as an unfit place to live IN. But what
ever else may be said OF Chicago papers,
they stand up for their city. 1t is not
likely, therefore, that the water the people
use is any better than is represented. 10
fact, a comparatively small lake which re-
ceives daily the sewage from a territory
containing 100000 might easily be unfit for
even bathing purposes.

FAVORITE SONS.

1t Is quite natural and proper that In
national convention a State delegation
should cast one vote for favorite son.
This vote gets him on the record as Presi-
Dental candidate, and this is a. seed that
may bear fruit at some future day. Blu.
the favOrite son vote is sometimes mislead-
ing. In the Minneapolis convention two
States were lost to Harrison through votes
for favorite sons. Maine of course voted
for Blaine, ana would doubtless have voted
for Reed If Blaine had not been in the field,
and Ohio voted for Mckinley, though other
wise Harrison State. The support these
two States gave favorite sons enables the
Democrats to say that Harrison was not the
choice OF the States which elected him In
1888. In point Of record he was not The
twenty States that gave him their electoral
votes in 1888 gave him in convention but
25j. while 263 were cast against him. But il
we take thirty Of Ohio's votes from Nc
Kinley and give them TO HarIison-as they
would have been cast if there had been no
favorite son in the field-the Harrison vote
would be increased to 265 and the opposition
vote reduced TO 233.

PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.

DIR. BrOwn-Seqnard has been lecturing be-
fore the French Academy of Sciences
Enoch Pratt Of Baltimore has purchased,
for $4,000 building in the Monumental
City which he has presented to the Mary
land Academy of Sciences at its home.
The late French General de I.ayeaueoupe
kept up the tradition of military family
by leaving two sons, three soDs-ln-law and
three nepheWs holding commissions in the
army.
Commodore Hunter. who died in New Or
leans last week. left $4,000 in Confederate
curIency-the money paid him for his SER
vices in the Confederate navy-to his
nephew.
Kate Field believes that the moral and
temperate saloon system advocated by Rev.
Dr. Rainstord would be great improve
ment upon the handwriting bar trade as
now countenanced.
Right Rev. o. NJ. Whitaker, Bishop of
the Protestant Episcopal Church for Penn

THE VOTERS MAY CHOOSE.


An exchange gives as one reason why San
Francisco should have a new charter the
assumption that politicians can more easily
get control Of the Legislature than of the
City Fathers. a little proof on this point
would be interesting reading. In what two
years have we had Board Of Supervisors
that as a whole did not owe the fact of its
political existence to political bosses? We
have generally had two or three Supervisors
who were not in the ring. But it is a long
time since a Mayors veto has killed an
obnoxious BILL Enough Supervisors have
always been secured to pass anything in the
form Of bill OF resolution over a veto. The
CALL looks forward TO a time when bosses
will rot elect either City Fathers or Legis-
latures. The present ballot law gives the
people voice in the election that they have
never had before. The bosses may nomi-
nate, but they have net the power 10 elect.
Nominations by petitions place candidates
on the official ballot and then afford the
mass Of voters to choose between indepen-
dent and boss candidates.

since that the sum of $4,000. coo was needed
to complete the work. Congress was asked
for S5,OO0000, the managers assuming to
provide the remaining So. coo, 900 by private
loans But 10, 100000 haf-dollars is not by
any means the equivalent of an appropria-
ton of S5,OC0,OOO. 1t will be nearly year
before there will be any demand for them
for admission to the fair. Meantime how
are they 10 be made an available fund?
VIII they go into general circulation like
ordinary half-dOllars and be held at parity
with gold by making them a limited legal
tender? If not, how will the fair managers
dispose Of them at their par value? Kmore
effective and less Objectionable way to help
the fair managers out would be an appro-
priatiOn outright, payable in lawful money.

New York is about what COCO would be in
this State Six thousand votes in this State
cannot be seen until the final canvass just
before the election, and even then may be
elusive. There are always more than per
cent Of the voters VINO do not let any one
know how they intend to vote. A good
many do not know themselves the day be-
fore election. The Tammany delegate who
assumes that Clevelai cannot carry New
York by $4,000 votes is simply talking for
effect. Tie shrewdest leaders in the party
cannot make closer guess than that at the
close of The campaign. But as the Tam
many cry is, Anything to beat Cleveland"
this wild talk passes muster.

WORLDS FAIR COINAGE.

The House Committee on the Worlds
Fair has agreed to report bin authorizing
the coinage of 100000 half-dolars to be
used for the benefit Of the fair. While there
is no objection to the bill being reported,
there is much reason to doubt if it will fur
nish the fair managers with the funds
needed to complete the work on the plan
laid out. A Chicago paper stated some time

So Palacio has fed from Venezuela. He

self suficieney Of hon0rs In departing from
the country that called him dictator. but
probably he was hardly out OF sight at
sea before he was cursed very heartily by
the masses and by the inner circle be chose
to rail- his friends. 1t is fervently to be
hoped that Venezuela may now settle down
to a course of peace and progress, but the
probabilities are that after q short spell
of government on the plan OF the conspira-
tors who have gained the day there will
be another crop of abuses, another plot, and
again resort to violence to introduce fresh
changes. Government In all the South
American countries is very earthquakish.

tiGns were unsuited TO certain types OF the

The Santa Fe Railway Company has
