Capitol gossip Of the more substantial
variety appears to indicate with apparent
precision the Presidents official views as
TO what would be desirable in the line Of
silver legislstio The forecast. which Is
published In another column, seems to be
well vouched for. and Is by no means I'M
reasonable In its terms. Those who ought
to know how the President feels on this
extremely important topic say he will be
moderate In his recommendations-wi IA
vor the unconditional repeai of the so-called
Sherman act but recognizes the value Of
silver as q money metal II he should point
out that with the present attitude Of Euro
pean countries the proper ratio between
gold and silver cannot be maintained by
this country alone he would not surprise
anyone nor would there be much room
for dissent over the proposition that by
suspendtng silver coinage except for sub
sidiary purposes the European governments
may more easily be forced into an inter-
national agreement Of a variety more fav-
orable to the United States than any that
have yet existed Such views as these are
attributed to President Cleveland. and there
are several prominent members who are
ready to Jump hight into debate with such
propositions as have been outlined. Silver
men are not likely. however, to be over
hasty. for they undoubtedly hope to secure
. majority of the coinage committee and
use that vantage ground as their base of
operations. As several days must elapse
before the committees are announced II
seems as though the silver men feared to
discuss the case on It's merits and on the
same plane as that which the anti-silver
men are willing to occupy. But shrewd as
the anti-silver leaders are they will meet
In the white metal advocates men who are
clever Of fence. Should the administration
seek the unconditional repeal Of the Sher-
man law the silver representatives viii GER
tainly endeavor to push through a measure
which viii be In close accord with the Chica-
go PLATFORM most troublesome document
latterly-tn which the democratic party
pledged itself to evenhanded treatment of
the two precious metals. There Is promise
Of much disturbance within the now domi-
nant party.

without flourish Of trumpets or extraor-
binary incident there assembled In this city
today a national legislature, the acts Of
which win either bring relief to the tightly
strained financial situation OF else increase
the discomfort springing out OF dis1ofnted
and extremely uncomfortable commercial
conditions. Not for twenty-nine years has
any Congress had such difficult task As
II before the body which this afternoon
laughed and chatted over the preliminarfes
OF organization, and never IN the nations
history has there been q wider deld for
clean statesmanship. OF the outlook no
human being Is qualified to speak with any
thing like an assurance of accuracy. It Is
extremely difficult to discover q surplus Of
business capacity In q Congress made ma
ture by experience, and only at exceptional
ana generally unimportant periods has the
House ever permitted itself to legislate In
Q busfnes3like and expeditions manner, 30
II viii be rather surprising II there IL any
thing like immediate harmony Of action
even among those who compose the major
ity. Most new members are inclined to
delay proceedings by over-indulgencs In
debate. and Of such many were sworn In to-
day. In point Of variety there never was
q Congress like unto this. Every shade of
political opinion. every variety Of ism has
at least one representative intent on tenac-
iously holding sacred what are regarded
as inalienable rights Many Of the differ
ences are radical and beyond the soothing
touch of anything like moral suasion, but
an effort VIII be made to harness even the
least tractable force. 30 that by united ef-
fort the great and increasing load may be
removed. President Cleveland, In his mes
sage, will point out what he believes to be
the way Of safety, and pending the publica-
ton Of his vfews-now 50 near-Congress
win rid itselS of the minor details Of organi-
ration and be prepared to sensibly discuss
the presidential recommendation. The coun-
Try looks for speedy and reassuring action
and win hold to strict accour liability those
men who. for selfish reasons or for no rea-
sons at all. shall interfere and cause delay
1t Is to be presumed that partisan opposi-
ton viii make It's appearance. no matter
what the proposition. but every true citizen
must hope that patriotism win be the more
conspicuous feature Of the session and that
whenever party lines can be wiped out by
On effort to serve the whole people such a
desirable happening win take place. To
control the noisy and unreasonably obstruc-
tive strong rules will be necessary. and
although the democracy have heretofore
inveizhed bitterly against such restrictions
while democrats were in a minority the
leaders have long since seen that 1t was
impossible to transact the business Of Con-
gress unless the majority could rule. This
session must be devoted to business. Any
persistent flibustering waste Of time cannot
Be tolerated.

Taking Care of the Money,

From the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette
Deposftors who were drawing their money
from New York savings banks few DAYS
ago are wisely putting 1t in again. There
are many more dangers TO the working
mans savings than possible insolvent
banks At least nine out of ten of the
savings banks are safer custodians of a

SHOOTING STARS,

A statesman from New York was indulg-
ing in a little social relaxation. The lady
with whom he was conversing undertook
to give the conversation little life by the
remark:
Don't you think Burns poetry is beau
tiful?"
A shade Of naughty Indignation swept
over his face but he answered gently:

Of police. not poet"

RESIDENCE
mitted to practice in 1S49 in Port Wash
ington, Wis. In 1852 he went to Cali
fornia and began mining operations
with his three brothers.
In 1856 he removed to San Francisco
and engaged in mercantile pursuits on
a large scale, laying the foundation Of
a fortune that has recently been esti-
mated at more than $50, 100000. In
1860 he was in the convention which
nominated Lincoln.
He was an earnest advocate of Pa
cifc railroad, and was elected president
of the Central Pacific company when it
was organized in 1851. The same year
he was elected governor OF California,
and served from December, 1881, till
December, 1868. He also became inter
ested in other roads on the Pacific slope
and in the development of the agricul
ture and manufactures of California.
In 1885 he was elected to the United
States senato for the full term of six
years from March 4, 1886. In memory
of his only son, Mr.. Stanford has given
the state OF California SEQ, 600, 600 to be
used in founding at Palo Alto univer-
sity whose curriculum shall not only in
clude the usual collegiate studies, but
comprise instruction in telegraphy, type
setting, type writing, journalism, book
keeping, farming, civil engineering.
and other practical branches of educa-
ton.
Included IN the trust fund for the
maintenance of the university is Mr.
Stanford's estate at Vina, Tehama
county, California, which is SAID to be
the largest vineyard in the world. 1t
comprises 1000 acres, $500 of which
are planted with bearing vines. 1t is
divided into 50)-acre tracts, and most of
the labor is performed by Cinnamon.

BALTIMORE, June 22.-Cardinal Glib

of the off cial translation of the much
discussed encycllcal letter from Pope
Leo on the school question.
1t shows the pope's love for America
eulogises Monsignor Satolli, gives the
two-faced purpose of his mission, his
position on the school question explain
ed to the archbishops i'll New York,
misunderstood by others and endorsed
by the pope, who declares it to be in
harmony with the action of the council
of Baltimore, which remains in its in
tegrity.
After referring to the action Of Sa-
tolli at the meeting Of archbishops in
New York, when he laid before the
meeting certain propositions on the
the school question, the pope depiores
the fact that, through misinterpreta-
ton, perhaps by those who were dis
posed to antagonize the papal delegate.
and spread abroad by the secular press,
thereby being made. inopportunelv
pubic, the propositions made by MGR.
Satolli has excited much controversy.
This, he states was the cause of the
request which he made to the bishops
for each to write him fully, their minds
upon this important question.
Upon examination of these letters
which the pope states were promntly
sent to him, Essays lit became man fest
Us that some of you found in the
propositions no reason for apprehension,
while to others it seemed that the prom.
eositions partially abrogated the discip-
hnary law concerning schools enacted
by the council Of Baltimore. and they
feared that the diversity Of interpreta-
tlons put upon them would engender
said dissensions. which would prove
detr mental to Catholic schools"
