Arbitration settles tho Lehigh Valley
railroad strike. 1t is pity that arbi-
tratlon was not resorted to before the
strike was struck. There has been
great loss to both sides and to the
public, which in such cases is ground
between the upper and the neither mill
stone.
If tho principle of arbitration be n
good one, it isat its best when applied
10 tho prevention OF strikes, iockouts
and all similar strife aud disturbance
OF normal conditions. As we become
moro civilized VIC shall look more to
peaceful methods to settle business
matters.

He Makes Some Remarks on The Single
Gold Standard.
At night there was a general union
meeting of the commerce and finance con-
crosses in the Hall of Columbus, the prin-
cfpal feature of which was the address Of
Horace White, of New York, ON ''The Sin
gle Gold Standard" This was the feature
in fact, OF the days meetings, and there
was large audience to hear what the
speaker would say Mr.. White began by
saying that the most impressive fact in
the world of finance was the dominance of
the gold standard. 1t began in England
nearly century ago and had conquered
one country after another until all civil
lied nations were brought under its sway.
Three international congresses have been
called to stay its march, and none had been
held to assist it; the movement had been
as little impeded as that of an ocean
steamer would be by the action of de-
batting society in its own cabin
Was all this due to human perversity, or
had it a rational cause founded in the needs
of mankindi Beginning with the expert
ence of England, a sketch was gives of

the various coinage raulOs eSraDnSned be-
tween gold and silver showing how the
government and society had strenuousiy
sought to keep both metals in circulation,
but had failed in every instance, and never
succeeded in having stable currency until
they adopted the single gold standard. The
experience of the United States was next
considered, We followed the example of
the Old world when we adopted the double
standard in 1892 The ratio of fifteen to
one, which we chose, was near as posi-
bic TO the market ratio at that time, yet
the market ratio changed within a COM
paratively short period.
Gold rose in comparison with silver 1t
became profitable to export the former.
The yellow metal began TO grow scarce in
the year 1910, and had wholly disappeared
from circulation i'll 1917. Our ancestors
finally became tired of Juggling silver
around. In 1884 they made the ratio six
teen TO one in order to bring back the gold
ana expel silver from circulation The act
did eXpel silver from circulation so com
pletely that for period of forty years no
body saw a silver dollar IN circulation.
The act of 1874 commonly called the de-
monetizing act, merely made the law con-
form to the pre-existing fact The de-
monetiZation of silver, which was practf-
cally decreed in 1884 and legally decreed in
1873, had not been disturbed or reversed by
any subsequent act.
The purchase of a limited amount Of
silver by the government was a very diff
ferent thing from reconciliation of that
metal The United States had adopted
the single gold standard for the same rea-
son that England did; namely. because it
was the most convenient system. Prior to
1871 Germany had the single standard Of
silver. As soon as the north German con-
federation was formed the German econo-
mists began to advocate plan for unifica-
international monetary conference was
held in Paris with this object in view.
The German states, both north and south,
were represented in this conference and
they all voted in favor of the single gold
Standard

vision for the labourers in that respect. His
object WAS that, as in the case of Barbados,
provision should DO made for the rapidly in
crossing population, whose interests they were
charged with protecting and safeguarding.
No better security for the inviolability Of
property could be provided than q happy and
contented peasantry.
Mr.. Manchester disavowed any feeling Of
hostility to the planting interest, in advocating
the all~tment scheme.
Mr.. Shelford expressed his unbounded nd
miration for the ability and Integrity Of the
Cove. nor, who, although he had perpetrated
blenders in administering the affairs Of the
Colony, had, he believed, the best interest Of
the people at heart, and had worked out many
schemes of great utility to the public general.
ly.
His Excellency, apropos of the remarks
made by Mr.. Shelford, said that many of his
schemes had been at first bitterly opposed, but
that, now when they were in . more advanced
slate, public opinion had changed; and he
believed that all sections were now anxious to
cooperate with the Government in the en-
deavour they we're putting forth to advance
the moral and material welfare Of the people
generally.
Mr.. Horsford, in the course of an able and
forcible speech, pointed out that the real
reason of the opposition to His Excellency's
administration was not that the people of the
Presidency were opposed to q progressive
policy or to any we'll matured plans for the
improvement of the islands. Their opposi-
ton WAS directed against the anti popular
system of government which placed the rails
ing and the spending of money absolutely in
the hands of Government officials, instead Of
III the hands of the elected representatives of
The people. The declaration of His Excel
lenoy's intention to place in the hands of 8
General Council elected by the people the
control of the affairs of the colony did
more to satisfy public opinion than any
number of successful administrative acts could
do.
Mr.. Manchester spoke in the same strain,
pointing out that many schemes, good in
themselves, hal been spoiled in carrying
them into effect. Referring TO the question
Of reform of the constitution he hoped that
the Governor would aim not so much at q
theoretically perfect constitution as at a prao-
tiGal constitution which would leave in the
bands Of local bodies large powers over local
affairs.

The Governor, in introducing The allot-
ment schelne, dealt with the subject very
briefly. He said that the present. proposal
was 10 rxpend q sum OF G2, 900 IN the pur~
chase of lands in various localities TO be sold
III mall lots to members of the labouringc class.
Tbs scheme must be self-supporting, and his
idea was IT, place the administration of the
several nllotmsnt districts under the control
Of q local committee or local authority, who
would be responsible for the difficult task OF
collecting the instruments from the people.
Mr. Gould said that this scheme, if careful.
ly carried out. would prove to be the greatest
benefit that His Exosllency had conferred
upon the people of the Presidency. Cheap
mountain land should be purchased, as that
would Do beat suited FOR the growing of ground
provisions, which was the crying want of the
peasaptry at present.
Mr.. Manchester said that it wss important
tina, the allotmeuts should be purchased in
proximity to p~opulous centres.
His Excellency said that much of the suc.
cess IL the scheme would depend upon tie
manuer in which it was carried ont. and that
at any cost that minute subdivision Of lots
which had destroyed the advantages of small
AllotMents elsewhere, must be avoided.
Mr.. Shelfotd strongly advised the Cover
nor TO abandon the allotment idea, or at any
rate to postpone the matter for future consL
d~eration. His own experience was that many
Of the estates gave small allotn ents to
the labourers, and he Interference of the Gov
srnment would prove detrimental TO 'Ae best
intsrests of the proprietary body, on which
he hardly needed to remind His Excellency,
the prosperity of the country depended. He
himself had given to his labourers a large
number or acres OF land for the growing Of
ground provisions, and the effect hal been
that he experienced the greatest difficulty in
getting many of them to attend to. the regu.
lar estate work. His "boilerman" was a
great sinner in this respect. So far as his
side OF the island was concerned, so far
from there being any scarcity Of ground pro-
visions there WAS really a superabundanoe
and the labourers had no reason whatever to
complAin. @1's r.
Mr.. Manchester, replying to the last
speaher's obiections to the allotmenis scheme,
Aoped1 that his ExcellencyY would not listen
- The 64lfsh md narrow views Of the interest
20 ably represented BY Mr. Ehelford. There
could be 40 doubt whatever a. to the poverty
thst prevailed among the working GLASS, nor
that the Allotment scheme, if carefully worked,
wsllds confer Sfsst benefit upon that class.

intrs5t' Of the proprietary body. nor of max
