Hatch May Win Forgiveness.

from The Philadelphia Record (Dem.l.
Probably MIR. Hatch would be forgiven of

the session OF the Fifty-second congress he
should drop ent-oDtion and do something for

Allen w. Thurman, Of Ohio son of the
Old Roman, has thought out plan to solve
the financial problem which, he says, with
the free coinage Of both metals would put
gold and silver at a parity in twenty four
hours and end the strife between them. His
proposition is that silver shall be the basis
for national bank circulation. The banks
are to be required 10 deposit in the United
States treasury 30 per cent. in such dollars,
upon which they are to be permitted to
Issue 100 per cent of notes. This. Mr.
Thurman says, would always insure specie
payments.

The Chicago newspapers think they have
hit upon plan TO settle the question of
opening the fair on Sundays. They hold that
congress had no voice in the matter until the
exposition management accepted the ST.
100000 Of souvenir coins, conditioned upon
the closing of the fair on Sunday, and that
il the 81, 500, 900 should be returned to the
United States treasury, the Sunday closing
obligation would be annulle1. This, the
papers propose, shall be done. The Chicago
Journal says there would be no trouble
about raising the necessary amount in the
city Of Chicago. "In fact" says the Jour-
nal, las the tokens have been sold at 81
each, the exposition treasury should be
able TO meet the draft and have a little
profit of S2,5OO,OOO left on the deal" But
would that kind of deal relieve the expo
sition of Its obligation! How about the
profit on the coins; would not the retention
Of that place the fair under as great obli-
cation TO congress as If the whole amount
of the gift had heen retainedl

There are all sorts of cranks but
those who propose to boycott the
Worlds Fair on week days because IL
is opened on Sunday are Of about the
most unreasoning class. AS well boy
colt the mails and telegraph because
they are used on Sunday or the grain
and fruit because they grow on Sunday
There is an element of dishonesty in
accepting the governmental aid on
condition of closing on Sunday and
then breaking the contract that is dis
creditable to the Fair and to the
Nation. But 1t is regulating itself.
On Sundays half the buildings are
closed and most of the exhibits covered
to give the exhibitors a rest aud there
is little TO sea and few present to see
1t. The dishonesty Of the Fair should
not prevent those able to enjoy the
pleasure of seeing the great exposition
from witnessing what is conceded to be
the most stupendous and magnificent
display of the worlds possessions AM
progress ever made. 1t will be found
that those who are bowling for boy
colt are mostly narrow minded stay-at-
