Tho legislative Bill.

WASHINGTON CITY, May 2S.-The legis-
lative appropriation bill has been reported
by the committee on appropriations to
the House. The most important feature
and the one likely to lead to bitter con-
test is that abolishing the Utah commits

252, which is $780, S6 less than the esti-
mates. The appropriation for the current
fiscal year was so, l4l,S74. being $459, 622
more than recommended in the present
bill. Thirty-nine clerks of senators who
are not chairmen of committees have been
abolished. In the House compensation
for the twenty-five additional members
who will enter under the new apportlon-
ment is provided for. Summary DISPOSE
ton is made Of the Industrial Christian
Home of Utah, in Salt Lake City, which
was founded as a refuge for Mormon wives
who abandoned polygamy, by granting the
entire premises to the territory as a site
for it's school for deaf mutes until con-
gress shall otherwise provide.

JOHN CHINAMAN has played trump card
against Uncle SANS efforts to keep him
out Of the country. The present treaty
with Great Britain provides that any Brit
lsh subject shall be given free entry and
right of residence in the United States, ir-
respective of race, color or creed. Last
week half dozen Cinnamon from Van
couver were nGturaliZed at Montreal as
british subjects, given the usual papers
and left for New York At the border
they were halted, but the United States
ofhclals were compelled to pass them, after
seeing their documents. This will lead to
some modification of the treaty with Eng
land. In the meanwhile the government of
CHINA has renewed its demands upon the
Washington state department for defini-
ton OF the status of Chinese emigrants to
America, preparatory, it is thought, to
driving out citizens of this country, mer-
chants, missionaries and others. BY some
1t is thought that communication with the
tlowery Kingdom will be cut off entirely,
unless the United States gives to the Chi
nese the same privileges it offers to people
OF the European countries, which is not
likely to be done.

THE HONEST DOLLAR.

Hon. WILLIAM WALLACE Bowers, Re
publican member of Congress from Cali
fornia, made forcible speech on the silver
coinage bill last week. This gentleman
cast his first vote for FREMONT in 1856 and
has voted for every Republican nominee
for President since But though he could
trace his party lineage as Republican of
the bluest blood, he found himself on that
question among small minority. He was
debating with the venerable THOMAS
DUNN ENGLISH, of New Jersey, who said
of the BLAND bill it was a measure to
throw more ragged notes upon the country
ana TO pile up silver ia the treasury. ITO
day." said he. ''yoG can scarcely get half
dollar or quarter that is not worn. And
now comes this bill to enable the farmers
/ TO pay 40 cents on the dollar of their debts.
l call 1t. in plain language, the swindler's
bill" To this Bowers retorted by draw
ing picture of the New York Stock Ex-
change with its swarms of banditti trying
10 steal from one another-where men
enter rich and come out poor, ruined, dis
graced by the phantom of an "honest dol
lar.''
And then Mr.. B. asked the question
What is an honest r?'-answering it
by asserting that the 1922 grains of pure
gold united with 2.5S of alloy was no more
honest than the silver dollar. The speaker
gave striking illustration. When he LETT
California he put s. gold pieces in his
pocket, and had two when he reached
Washington. He went to buy railroad
ticket and offered one of them to the ticket
seller, who looked at it. then at Bowers,
then rang the piece on the counter, looked
again and finally gave him a ticket. AL
though handling thousands of dollars he
didn't know the "honest dollarn when he
saw II. Soon after this he bought another
50 ticket at the same Office, of the same
man, rendering silver dollars and half
dollars In payment. There was no hesita-
ton then. He knew the real money of the
realm. Afterwards of the same man he
bought round trip ticket, price S1O
throwing down silver certificate, which
was swept into the drawer with scarcely a
glance.
With the remaining S. gold piece he went
to the postoffice, wrote out his application
at the money order window, and rendered
the gold. This clerk was worse than the
other. He picked up the piece, turned it
over numerous times, rung it on his desk
and tried to put it through slot in little
machine, but it would not go through,
when MIR. Bowers received one of those
uncomfortable looks which imply so much.
However, he at last got the money order.
The HERALD thinks these were pretty
good illustrations of the point the speaker
was endeavoring to make-that it is the
producers money that is in circulation
among ali classes and is cor sidered good
enough, and that it is the speculator's
money which is boarded up. The silver
dollar is an honest enough dollar for the
mortgagor to lend or to buy with, but
when it comes to paying, he wants some
thing he can put away and treasure up as
more precious and valuable.

THE NEW York Commercial Advertiser OF
last Saturday had a double-leaded Wash.
lngton dispatch saying on the authority oil
Secretary PRoCToR that President HAIR
RlsoN would not be a candidate for re-
election. 1t was not asserted positively
that MIR. HARRISON would not accept, but
1t was said that he was disinclined to run
again, and that he would not accept the
nomination unless it came to him without
the least opposition and the situation
seemed to make his reelection reasonably
sure. In the last few words may be found
all the basis for this story. There is nc
likelihood that B. H believes any other
Republican would stand better chance.
and there does not appear to be any great
scrambling for the place anyway; but
HARRISON will go down with his party, and
he wants the usual vindication. The story
