Mr.. Barnes Plea for Mr.. Fitch.

Erastus Barnes, of Chicago, Is out in a
letter published in the OwossO Press ad-
vising teachers to support Fitch for Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction. Mr.. Barnes
of Chicago bases his reason on the good Mr..
Fitch can do for the schools of the State.
However, as Mr.. Fitch listened to Mr..
Barnes of Chicago and appointed him to do
institute work in Michigan last summer the
gentleman from Chicago feels obliged to do
as much for Mr.. Fitch as possible. Previ-
GUS State Superintendents have recognized
the fact that Michigan teachers were more
intimate with Michigan schools and could
afford better instruction to the district teach
ers than persons who were teaching in the
city of Chicago. Mr.. Barnes of Chicago
puts letter in the Press, which stripped of
all its verbiage means: Fitch gave me job
and, therefore, all my friends who appreci-
ate the ''jobee" will vote for the ''jobbor."

England and Our Election.

1t is not expected that the period of
acute depression through which the Welsh
tin plate trade is passing will see any change
for the better during the present year. On
the other hand the market for labor is nos
yet fairly opened in the States; for not only
is business affected largely by the November
election, but the future of Welsh tin plate
hangs in the balance. 1t is hoped that the
champion of tariff reform, Mr.. Cleveland,
will be returned by the democrats, but If
President Harrison is reelected there will be
a genuine exodus of Welsh firms to America.

THE adverse report from the COM
mittee on foreign affairs on the
anti-Chinese bill, probably kills that
measure, as the committee was no
doubt influenced to this unfavor-
able action by the evident inten-
ton of the. Chinese government to
sever diplomatic relations with us
in case the bill passed, and also to
resort to measures of retaliation.
And in our judgment the law being
discriminative, was mistake. We
have a right to exclude foreign i'm.
migration from this country when
ever in our opinion as nation the
best interests of our country and
people require it, and we think that
time has now come. But to single
out the people of one nation for ex-
clusion, and that not the worst, is
undignifed, un-American, aud JUS
titles retaliatory acts on the part Of
the people so treated. For ourself
we think the time has come for the
exclusion of all immigrants with
out regard to race or characteristics.
Our public lands are all gone, our
mines nearly all developed, our
wilds all explored, our deserts re-
claimed 80 far as their reclamation
is possible. our railroads and fac
tories built, and our population
already from a million and a-half
to two million in excess of our en-
ploying capacity, and the natural
increase promises henceforth to be
sufficient to fully meet the demands
Of our industries. Besides more
than a million wage workers are
constantly idle and suffering. Such
state of things requires the atten-
ton of the government for the vel
fare Of our own laborers, and as no
laws which we can enact, except
laws excluding further immigration
can remedy the evil of over popula-
ton, that remedy should be applied.
Fifty years ago We bad 3 vast
wilderness inhabited by wild and
warlike men to explore and subdue,
and we needed immigrants to peo'
pie and develop it, but the condi-
tons of that time have passed away,
and the laws which they called into
existence having become obsolete
should be repealed and other laws
| adapted to present conditions en-.
acted. Our legislators should keep
up with the procession.

Majority Report.

The majority report on the Bland
silver bill, drawn up by Mr.. Bland
himself, contains arguments so UNI
answerable that we reproduce 3
portion, Notwithstanding the same
reasons, though probably not SO
we'll stated have heretofore appeared
in the KEYSTONE. The report says:
1.-THE familiar warning that free coin
age would cause ship loads OF silver from
other countries to he brought here and
dumped at our mints in exchange for onr
gold, is still urged. How can this be un-
der the proposed lawi The ship load Of
silver brought to our minta by the for
ejgner would be coined into standard
dollars, and these dollars returned to
him, but he could not go to the treasury
and demand gold for them, nor can be
compel one Of our citizens to swap him .
gold dollar for silver dollar. If the
American citizen gives him q gold dollar
for silver dollar, that is voluntary
trade that no law onght to interfere with.
Should the foreigner take coin notes for
his bullion instead Of coin. the same thing
happens. He can take his coin note to
the treasury and demand redemption, but
the note is redeemable in coin, and the
secretary of the treasury could hand him
back the coin struck from his ship load
of bullion. The foreigner then would
ascertain that he had committed the
blunder Of bringing silver to our minis,
where it il worth three cents on the dol
lar less than It was at home, and that he
loses this three cents and cost Of trans.
portation besides. What, then, will he
do with his money! He must either in
vest it in property here or &c home with
it. He could not buy gold with it or
gold exchange. unless gold and silver
were at par. In this case, then, there
conld be no reason for preterring the one
meta! to the other. If gold went to 4
premium, he would have to pay the pre-
MUM on his exchange, thus entailing on
him additional loss in sending shiploads
Of silver. If be invests his shipload of
silver money in our property and bust
ness enterprises, it would at once stimu.
late industries, awaken enterprises, and
give us healthy business and sound
currency. What more could be desired

ED1roR KEYsroNE: Aa one

EDITOR KEYSTONE: As one of the
Ketchum gentlemen who have
evolved IAN altogether. new idea
on the coinage question, / beg leave
to refer to your article under that
caption in your iseue of the Goth
ult. and to add q point which to me
seems important in this connection
as free-coinage argument.
The chief item. of expense in the
present standard dollar is 4124
grains of standard silver, which ia
equivalent to 9Th grains refined
silver, and at 80 cents per ounce in
the market costs the government,
or any purchaser, about 50 cents
1t would be q fallacy to presume
that the government has no un.
lawful competition in so simple
an operation as the coinage Of
standard dollars at net margin OF
81 cents on the dollar or 80 cents
per ounce of silver handled! The
world is full of crooked characters
who would regard it as a magnifi-
cent business, and the counterfeiter
no longer feels the sinful necessity
of risking the imposition of lead OF
iron coins upon the unwary public.
He turns out good, plump, honest
dollars that will bear the most scru-
pulous comparison with legitimate
coins and defrauds the nation out
Of one-third of their accepted value
Expert detectives have repeatedly
encountered fraudulent dies of such
perfection that their only recourse
for detection was to the ring, meas
urement, weight and general ap.
pearance of the pieces moulded
from them. In all these essentials
the illegal coin under discussion il
me plus ultra"
Estimating a days product at
81 900, the revenue is 1910, more OF
less, according to the silver market
and, considering the security en-
joyed by turning out intrinsically
honest dollars, counterfeiting the
metal ceases to be wise or profitable
No doubt many thousands of such
coins are in daily circulation and
soon beyond all trace of their origin
in the swim of trade. Is tins not q
tenable argument for free coinage;
The only remedy for such a start
ling imperfection in our system O
coinage is fixed value for silver
and full weight dollar?
