THE city trustees of Sacramento, hav-
ing had an opinion from the attorney
generals Office that the act making it a
felony for any municipal body to pass
an ordinance licensing gambling. is un-
constitutional, in that the punishment
lie cruel and unusual, have passed an or
dinance to license gambling in that city.
But as the ordinance itself is repugnant
to the state law prohibiting gambling,
it will, of course, fall to the ground.
They seem to want legalized gambling
in Sacramento very bad. on occasion of
the meeting of the state fair, and if the
legislature licensed gambling it would
prove bonanza for the state capital.
Here is San Jose's chance to make a
point in favor of removal.

SILVER THx SrgACIssT AS MEASURE
OF VALUES.

If it be true, as asserted by Senator
Vest--.and the HERALD cited undisputed
statistics to prove that the Senator's as
ssrtion is STRICTLY within the truth
that silver has kept on an even level
with staple commodities in recent years,
whilst gold during the same period has
mounted up from 30 to rs per cent above
Its former level, as il clearly proved by
the general decline in gold prices
throughout the world. that fact ought
to be considered of momentous and de-
cisive importance in the settlement OF
the great question now pending before
the congress OF the United States, in
which not only the people of this coun-
try but OF all civilized countries ave
vitality interested. For we assume (and
we will not insult the intelligence OF our
readers by stopping to argue 80 plain q
propositiou) that Americans, and in
deed all the world, desire steady meas
ure of standard OF value.'
If, for example, using the formula of
Mr.. David A. Wells (see his work
Recent Economic Changes, PIP.
120-l22) or of the eminent
economist and statistician, Mr.. August
us Sauerbeck, the same quantity OF the
staple articles of commerce, which, on
an average, cost, in silver or in gold,
100000, twenty years ago, are worth
today, as measured by silver, 100000,
or perhaps q little more, why, for any
sound economic, or even sentimental
reason, or for any reason whatsoever,
should the American people clamor, as
90 many of them do in the Atlantic and
New England states, to have the same
quantity of the same articles measure
only $4,000, or probably much lees,
which is all they are worth today in
gold, because of COLDS great rise during
these intervening years? Why should
the farmers and producers of the coun-
try have foregone or thrown away
$31, 900 or $35, 900 in profits, or in price,
il the profits were not that much, on
every 100000 worth OF the products of
their labor? Why should manufactur-
ers who put into their business or into
their plants 100000 twenty years ago be
content to take out now less than $40, 900
merely for the sake OF using gold as q
measure of value?
Why should merchants still adhere to
the gold standard go tenaciously when,
as they look back, they cannot but see
that it was solely and purely because OF
the steady rise of that standard that
they were compelled to do business on
falling market year after year?
II then, silver alone, (the single silver
standard,) or silver tied to gold, (the
double-standard,) is steadier in it's rels.-
ton to staple commodities than gold
alone, and if the double standard is the
standard of the constitution, why should
congress hesitate for one moment to
take such action as will bring us to
silver, If that is indeed the steadier of
the two metals; or better still, to both
silver and gold, tied together by free
coinage of both the metals into the
double-standard as it was established by
the constitution and by legislation one
hundred years ago.

GOOD WORK.

The Cleveland, tio, Plaindealer,
is doing splendid work in the cause
of free coinage. In discussing the
present condition of the Treasury it
etiys: 'f..t
:To-day one word from the Govern
ment declaring that it would use sill
ger equally with gold and at it's own
option would place the silver dollar
and the gold dollar side by side in
equal step. 1t is the; discrimination
against silver by the Government
against itself, against our home poo
pie and in favor of foreign trade and
spectators in gold that causes the
boarding of gold and its shipment
abroad. One bold, manly word from
Secretary Foster saying he would
exercise his reserved and undoubted
right to pay either silver or gold
would settle the whole question.
Why in the name of common sense
and common justice has the debtor
the right to say in which coin his
debt shall be paid, when it is stated
on the face of the bill itself that
it is payable in coin? Does that
give the debtor the right to demand
gold?
Both platforms Of the great polit-
ical parties pledged themselves to
make each dollar as good as every
other dollar. Can this be done by
discriminating against silver and not
being willing to demand that it shall
be used equally with gold while i;
bears the stamp of the Government?
Is ittsoundf discretion to discriminate
against one dollar--the white dollar
and not demand that it shall be ac-
copied by the creditor just the
same as the yellow dollar? The
power lies entirely with the Govern
ment.
Every treasury note, and, we be-
lieve, everg bond Of the United States
is payable in coin, and it is optional
with the Government which coin it
shall pay out. What silver we have
is legal tender, why not use it as
such? We say, stop makingFit rner-
chandise, give it full coinage, equally
with gold at the discretion of the Gov
eminent, as the law permits"

4 Queer HRlIncinnfion.

Three years ago Il man called Jurjung
Tain, a district commissioner for the Rus
sian government ut Grahigivsk, in the
northeast poirt of Siberia, imagined he was
god. Subsequently he declared himself
to he the chief divinity in the Yakutskan
pantheon. Divine honors were paid to him,
and he was carried through the settlement
daily. On special occasions he was accom-
panied by wonderful procession, when he
was carried by eight richly dressed men,
seated in richly ornamented chair, which
was adorned by the wings of cartridges,
bells, horses tails and ribbons while before
him was band of dancers. His career,
however, was short one, for he was soon
arrested by the military authorities and
sent to Niadivostock, where he is now con
fined in a lunatic asylum.-Boston Globe.
