In all effective work or service there
must be discipline. To this rule
there can be no exceptions. To our
minds is suggested, the Mt. Sterling
police service. They have a Chief, but
have they station where the Day
Force reports and receive instructions
from their superior aud again at the
close of the days work, do they report
back at the same place TO their Chief
where they are dismissed from active
service aud are relieved by the Night
Force, who likewise will report 10 the
Chict? If there is 10 regularity, no
discipline satisfactory; work can hot
be done. We often hear Of dissaiis-
faction with some official, aud we be-
lieve under good organization
that this would be obviatel, and that
likes and dislikes would be largely
done away with. "A suggestion on
the part of the Council in thi, line
would set things to moving system
atically.

Another object had in view was to secure
then much-needed addition to our currency
then being reduced by the compulsory retire
ment OF national bank notes on the payment OF
United States bonds This would have beer
gold and silver, but such a provision could
not be secured These reasons fully JUS
tilted the compromise. But the great
controlling reason why we agreed to it
was that it was the only expedient by which
we could defeat the free coinage Of silver. .
There is but one provision in 1t that
would change, that is to strike out the compul-
sorry purchase Of given quantity OF silver. ana
give authority to the secretary Of the treasury
to buy silver bullion at its market price when

Of both gold and silver and backed bv

States, but these are grave subjects for sep
arate consideration. What we want now Is re-
lief from further compulsory purchase OF silver.
With reserves both of gold and silver
In their proper proportions We can maintain
the entire body Of our paper money, including
coin at par with each other. For me. l will
never agree to the revival Of state bank paper
money, which cannot be made a legal tender,
and which on the first sign Of alarm will disap-
pear or be lost in the hands Of the holder.
