A GOOD PROPOSITION.

The more we consider the propo.
sition to Issue bonds for gold, the
more favorably It strikes US.
AS a means of forcing gold to SC
high premium that a general crash
would ensue in Europe, we can
imagine nothing else of half the
effectiveness.
The credit OF tho United States is
far superior to that OF any othe,
country, and justly so. a. it is
the only Power which ever at.
tempted, let alone succeede j,
in paying off the greatest war
debt ever incurred; aud no other
country can compare with ours in
natural resources and other means OF
paying.
We would, therefore, have no
trouble whatever in placing cur bonds
in Europe at a low rate OF interest,
while the money thus obtained at 2
or 3 per cent. per annum would easily
earn 6 to 20 per cent. 10 this country.
The absorption of several hundred
millions Of gold by this country would
prec; plate such a crisis in the gold
nations of Europe rs to cause evils
cation to tott-r. Thrones would fall,
boundaries be changed, and anarchy
triumph unless speedy relief were
afforded.
In the meantime the United States
would, with its bi metallic stan ard,
he on the high road to prosperity. ana
assume and maintain that leadership
in finance which { would have en-.
joyed years ago but for the Crime OF
1873.
But to accomplish this the free
coinage Ut silver is indispensable.
Will Congress be wise enough, and
,tatesmanlike enough, to compel it?
Wood River times. [volume] (Hailey, Idaho) 1882-1915, 1893-07-15
LET u ALL GIVE LITERALLY.

At the silver meeting held here last
Tuesday, H. r. Plug hof, j. o. Swift,
aud l. w. Garrett were appointed a
committee to solicit subscriptions to q
fund to help d,frAy the expenses Of
the special delegates to Washington
t,at are to be selected by the State
Convention that will be held at Boise
the 25th instant.
1t is hardly necessary to state that
no subscription ever solicited could
be more necessary than this. The
struggle TO. the coinage of silver has
now become one of life and death to
US. Without free coinage no stead!
or remunerative prize can b, secured
to silver; and without it silver mining
will be impossible, ranching prove
equally Improbable, and merchants
dising still less SO.
Idaho should raise not less than
$4,000 for this purpose; and this
amount can be raised if every man
who is interested land who is not?)
will but do the right thing by con.
t'ibu.ing to tho full extent of bis
means.
Let, therefore,, all give. Give &C.
cording to his means, even though
this may involve the smoking Of q
few less cigars or the swallowing Of a
little less OF spisituous liquors. L.,
all give 500 or 81, according te
their means, and the sum mentioned
will be more than realized.
Colonel G. V. Bryan, with the lib
erality which has ever characterized
him, agrees to contribute to the fund
$50 for every $1,000 raised throughout,
the State. Those who know him
know that he will do at least as well
as that.
II this example is followed. we will
be enabled to send East o delegstio
that will do effective missionary work
both with tongue and pen.

THE ABSORBING QUESTION.

The chief question which absorbs
the attention of the American people
to-day is that of finance. Events Of
the past few weeks have demonstrated
the rottenness of our present banking
system. The banks have been con-
Quoted in aid of the Glasses as against
the masses, and that fact has been so
clearly established that the people in
sis: u Don change.-Bellevue Herald
The events of the past few weeks
have not demonstrated the rottenness
of our present banking system. Our
national banking system is the best
in the world, aud lacks but one fea>
ture possessed by the Canadian
banking system to be as nearly per.
feet, almost, a. can be hoped for.
No other country approaches either
the United States or Canada in the
adap.ability of its banking system to
the needs Of the people.
The banks have been conducted so
as to serve their customers, Just as
any other business is or should be
conducted. Hence they are con.
Quoted sin aid of the classes"
The trouble is not with the bank
ing, but with the monetary system
Were silver restored a. . money
metal, there would be no reasonable
ground Of complaint against our bank
ing system, as. in fact, there is non,
now.
We are suffering from vicious leg
islation in money matters, and W,
should endeavor to put an end to it
But in looking for ways and means t,
that end We must not seek to destro,
what mas stood the admiring cr,ticisn
OF civilization. A national bauk not,

THE RATIO AGAIN.

Again we say: The ratio does net
make very much difference. If we
can get it at l6 to l, as heretofore, or
l5l to l, as in the Latin Union, or Is
to l, as in India, or IA to l, as in the
Argentine Confederation, we'll and
good. But it We cannot do better
than 20 to !. let us accept it, es the
ratio is bound to change rapidly,
until it shall be regulated by that
universal law Of supply and demand
to which we must all bow.
Prior to, and even later than 1878,
when the ratio in this country was 16
to l, nobody wished to get silver
coined, because a better price could
he got for it as bullion. Even the
government of the United States had
to pay for it more than it got for II
after it was coined.
At that time the Latin Union paid
Sl.33 per ounce, on its basis of 15t of
silver to l of gold; other coun,rie 6
paid as much as 81 40 per ounce.
Our ratio making silver worth only
$1,000 an ounce, no producer OF
American silver sought to have it
coined.
The same experience would be
ours if the ratio were fixed too low
We would refuse to have it coined,
and the price of silver bullion would,
IN three months or so, be so high that
the governments OF the world would
be compelled to q struggle to obtain
enough for coinage.

THE GREAT NEED.

What We need is tho free coinage
Of silver on as nearly . fair basis with
gold IS we can get.
That will do for the present.
Ii we get that, wo will then have
to depend on the law of supply and
demand for an enhance ment or q fall
in price OF "ratio."

WILL CONGRESS- PROVE TRAITOR!

England is playing a bold game.
But she should not be allowed to win
il.
She is trying to fore the CONNER
cial world to gold basis, in order to
retain her commercial supremacy.
She, being creditor nation, would
profit enormously from the consequent
fall in values, while all debtor nations
would lose more enormously from the
same cause.
If England succeeds in forcing the
gold standard, she will maintain her
commercial and financial supremacy
II she fails she will lose both, which
will fall to the United States.
Is our Congress going to legislate
for the benefit of Englandp

but It Is absurd to suppose that such
would be the case. The patrons OF Q saloon
have no concern about the private oblga-
tlons OF the keeper. They do not buy beer
to please him. but to please themselves.
The attempt Of the State to regulate the
liquor trafllc in this city has proved unsuc-
cessful. 1t Is not sustained by public send-
ment. Under overy administration OF the
municipal Government the enforcement OF
the excise laws has proved to be impracti-
cable. They have been violated openly by
many OF the best citizens. ne impostng no
moral obligation on them. They hav0 0been
looked upon as a nero usurpation of au-
thority by the State.
The main question as to what Is for the
best interests OF the community as to The
liquor traffic has not been brought up before
the people Of Now York, and II under Mr..
KEMpNER's bill IL Is referred to them we
are not afraid OF their decision. Tho vast
majority OF the citizens Of New York are
temperate. They are in favor Of the severest
possible regulation OF the liquor traffic. and
the arguments used before the Assembly
committee on Tuesday will have their full
weight with tho people TO whom Mr.. KEMP
NER's bill refers the decision OF the question.
The soundest rulo is to consult the people.

Can Reciprocity BE Kept Up?

The Nep York Times publishes letter
from Havana which expresses the hopo
that Cuba may continue to enjoy the bene-
fits OF reciprocal trade with the United
States under Mr.. CLEvELAND's second
Presidency:
.when the new Administration goes into power on
doubt receive general ovsrhaulng. and bo brough
into more eciprocal shape"
How does this accord with the Chicago
platform and its denunciation OF tho sham
reciprocity which juggles with the peoples
desire for enlarged foreign markets and
freer exchanges, by pretending to establish
closer trade relations for q country whose
articles OF export are almost exclusively
agricultural products. with other countries
that are also agricultural 2"
Our new tariff. with its duties levied ac-
cording to the Constitution for revenue
only" will necessarily impose d pretty
stiff duty upon sugar. just as 1t will impose
duty on tea and coffee: and will not this
put reciprocity with Cuba quito out OF the
question ....

difficult to SEQ. II is true that the syndi-
cate now controlling tho revenues Is Amor
lean, and that the United States might an
mex San Domingo. whereas Mother Hol-
land nor any other European power could.
But that fact does not change tho essen
TALLY private character Of the transaction.
1t appears that Spain is especially con-
ccrned at an alleged concession OF 100000
acres Of land to tho American syndicate
But that would not be. a twentieth part OF
The area OF San Domingo, and 1t Is certain
that the Government has not parted with
Its sovereignty over that or any other area.
1t has been suggested that an ultimate
result OF this new contract may be to give
tho United States naval and coaling
station ON tho islnnd. What then3 IL San
Domingo wishes TO indulge In revolution
and overturn its Government on TINT ac-
count 1t is welcome to do so. But how Zoos
that concern Spain2 Tho United States,
which has acquired the right OF coaling sta
tions in Samoa and Hawaii. will hardly ask
Spain's permission to acquire one in San
Domingo. Even should that republic apply
for annexation. which it has not the re-
motest Idea OF doing. and should our GOV.
ernment grant such a request. 1t would stiil
be matter In which Spain's consent would
not be invited Tho whole demonstration

Those OF our people OF the Anglo-Amerl-
can stock who laugh at the unpronouncea BILE
names Of some OF the Eastern Europeans that
have lately come among u.s. may not always
realize how much fun their own names afford
to these newcomers. Let any one. for exam
pie. try such familiar American names as
SMITH, JONES. BROWN. and ROBINSON. or CLEvE-
LAND. HARRISON. MURPHY. and SHEEHAN. upon
the ordinary Slavonian or jargor immigrant
or. for example. upon Mr.. DoLRoCYR1sKIE. Mr.
CIDKowsKY. Mr.. WoJCIEcHowsKI. and Mr.. NAMZ-
zYSowsKT. and then listen to their roars Of
laughter as they try to say SMITH. or any OF
the names Of the other men who rule the old
roast in New York. They will hiss. compress
the lips. blow through the teeth. twist the
tongue. and then probably declare that such a
name as SMITH was got up merely to destroy
the reason OF those who try to pronounce
it. We admit that the plain name Of
NAMzzYNowsKY is longer than a queer name
like SMITH or JONES. but We can avouch that
the classification OF the vocal organs In the
shorter case Is more trying to some folks than
it is In the other. We notice that good many
OF our immigrants from Slavonian lands
change their names because feeble minded
Americans laugh at them. but instead OF
doing that. they must just square things up
by laughing at the unpronounceabe names
borne by some Of these foolish Americans.
