SILEER UEM.iGOG y.

II is not strange. perhaps, that some persons
should talk about the silver question in way
that would disgrace the freshman class OF an
ASYLUM for Hopeless Idiots. 1t is probably a
nure matter of business the business OF dema-
gocucs whose means of subsistence are deri'eo
from PLAYING upon the ignorance and preJu-
dice of the poorer classes and araying them
in hostility to their more fortunate fellow-men.
No man who has intelligence enough to use
the English language can believe that the lapor-
ing man would be benefited by debasement
of the currency which will cause everybody VINO
sells provisions or clothing to the laborcr to
mt I'D prices on him while his wages go on at
the same rate in cheaper money Calling Us
cents worth of silver Il dollar only subjects
the trader to the inconvenience OF marking up
his prices: with the labOrer it makes necessary
one third more labor for every dollar he spends
for clothing provisions. coal, Light, rent, etc.
When he GETS to the silver basis which these
fluent demagogues tell him will bring everybody
PROSPERITY. so that, as our neighbOr, The New
York sun SAYS. every honest granger will
be able to get all the money he wants by mere
" touching button,' and drawing check
for n million will be as easy as striking match
he will find that everything except wages has
skipped up to meet the changed conditions and
in the end he will pay dollar for what former
" cost IS cents and have no more money to
pay with. And yet it is the laboring men to
whom these professional demagogues are ap-
peang day after day.
1t is comparatively easy to work upon the
prcjudices of ignorant persons with the notion
that if rich men, the creditor class, can only be
made to suffer loss or dmnution in value OF
their property, somehow or other poor men. the
laburing classes, will get an advantage from it.
The people who listen to that sort OF thing do
not reason at all. They do not stop TO con-
slider how it can benefit them to have the Gov
eminent call GS cents worth of silver a dollar
when they have no silver to sell, nothing, in
fact. to put upon the market but their own
labor for a dollars worth of which they will
get only GS cents They Just hear the camor
for more money! and with loose notion that
that is what they want Join in it. The readi-
IicSs with which the unreaSonng multitude can
be imposed upon by cheap ana noisy dema-
cogues when questions of currency or finance
are concerned was well illustrated during the
clipped coin agitation in England in 1896.
Excited by the talk of some wild rantels, an
angry mob besieged the house of Member Of
Parliament, demanding with curses and threats
that their clipped coins should be changed for
the new issues. Instead of arguing with them
the gentleman consented and desired to know
how much they had brought with them. Dill
gent search through the crowd brought out
one clipped half-crown.
And no doubt majority. if not all, Of the
angry mob honestly believed that they had Il
real grievance.

lieve that the forgery was executed at the die
tation of one or more of the bosses who
ran the Legislature of 1898. So the
question remains, What does Governor
Flower purpose to do about it? Can it
be that he has so low conception of what
he owes to his great office and to the people
of the State that for the sake of any supposed
factional party advantage he will condone this
abomination? 1t may be said-it is said-that
Governor who did not hesitate to sign
bills wantonly destructive of the sacred, funda-
mental principle of home rule, could readily
bring himself to sign Il bill which he knew to
be bogus, provided it was of service to his own
wing of the party.
But we now refuse to accept this view OF
New York's Chief Magistrate. We prefer to
believe that there is point in partsanship be-
yond which the Governor will not 60 and can
not be driven. Does he not draw the line at
bogus bills? We shall see.

THE GOTEGNUR AND THE ETNfRA BILI


An exceedingly grave charge is made by
1.-THE Elmira Advertiser in reference to a bill
affecting EImra, which was passed at the last
session Of TIE Legislature and signed by Gov
cinor Flower. The charge is that the GOV
crnor approved not the bill as ii left the Sen
ate and Assembly, but counterfeit. II "Thc
Advertiser is correct, then the Governor has
been made the victim Of an atrocious piece OF
rascaity. 1t is no vague charge which this
Trustworthy journal makes. Its allegation is
-on the authority Of the Asscmblyman from
the Elmla Dstrict--ihat as the measure in
question went to the Senate from the Assembly
il contained only the provision that the city
,bould be rcdividcd, and that eleven wards
should be made of the existing seven; that the
Senate passed the bill without amending it !;
that. nevertheless, the bill, as the Governor
signed il. kills the ward division by rclcgat-
inc il 10 the Common Council, and, further
more. takes the veto power away from the
Mayor"
Now sneak legislation of the Sheehan sort
is bad enough but probably it will stand in
law if not in morals. But this Elmira job is
something infinitely worse II is crime against
the lawmaking power and the Executive. If
the Legislature had proper scnsc of its own
dignity and responsibility, its majority mem
bcrs would institute measures looking to an
extra session for the purpose of redressing the
grave wrong which has been done, and OF
making an investigation with Il view to APP
pretending the criminal and delivering him over
to Justice. But it is safe to assume that the
Democratic majority will do nothing, for the
simple reason that there is good reason to be-

Although the Geary law has been declared
constitutional, it appears as the result of yes
teMay's Cabinet meeting that it is likely to be
officially treated as a dead letter, owing to the
failure of Congress to supply enough money for
its execution. Only 100000 was appropri-
ated, and of this Secretary Carlisle says that
less than $50, 900 is now on hand, with num-
her of charges still to be met whereas the de-
portation of the Chinese who have failed to
register will, it is estimated, cost Sc, 900, 900.
Hence little if anything, is expected to be done
toward carrying out the law before Congress
meets again. Public sentiment may then de-
mand its repeal. but in the mean time it ap-
pears to be the duty of the President to execute
the law so far as he is able to do so.

In an article on the wages OF teachers "The
Providence Journal states that the average yearly
salary of male teachers in the town Of Exeter,

report charging the educators Of Exeter with
boarding gold for speculative purposes lacked
foundation
