The latest complaint against the new
silver coins is that they are so badly
minted they do not lie.1at; cannot be
piled up and stacked as neatly and Sc
curely as the old coins; they .'wabble, !"
and when piled, take up more room
than they should, and so on. And yet
now, as with the old silver, everybody
will make his pile,n if he can.

LONDON. Dec. a-The annual Conservative
caucus, known as the union OF constitutional
associations. will open on Monday at Sheffield
The party managers, who have resisted the
ciamor OF the rank and file for protection
list platform, have been obliged to give way.
Though at heart protectionist. the leaders fear
adoption OF protection as definite party plank
would enable the Liberals to sweep the country
at the next general election. Even q declara-
tion in favor of fair trade was deemed danger
ous. Eventually, however. the feeling dis
played at the agricultural conference aud
now pervading the party compelled the CEN
tral executive to accept the resolutions
OF the protectionlsts in spirit. though veiled in
form. One of the resolutions that will be sub
mitted to the caucus declares that free trade is
against the best interests of the working
classes of Great Britain. The general expecta-
tion is that the caucus will support reciprocity
principles.
The rapidity with which the protectionist
ideas have become resurgent is the greatest po-
Htlcal phenomenon OF this date Balfour will
probably tone down the protectionist tenden-
cies, but will renew and accentuate the declara.
tions in favor of bi-metallsm. which promises to
be among the leading tricks OF the Conservative
game.
