THE CURRENCY PROBLEM.

1t does not seem that Comptroller OF
| the Currency Eckels is entirely consist
ent. According to report he will re-
commend that national banks be
authorized to issue currency up to
the face value of the bonds deposited
as security and also that the tax on
circulation be reduced to 5 per cent.
These recommendations do not, there
fore, appear to be very radical, but
taken in connection with another state
ment made by the comptroller they are,
to say the least, rather peculiar
According to Mr.. Eckels the recent
financial stringency, almost bordering
on raric, was not due to lack of volume
or fexibility of our currency. 1t was,
he declares, due entirely to loss of conf
dence i'll the solvency of monetary
institutions.
II that is true, why does he propose to
expand the currency by ten per cent?
Certainly if we have had and now have
currency sufficient in volume
duu irAiDlt tuOuHu W lllttl
all our requirements it would be
folly 10 increase it. Moreover, if, as
Mr.. Eckels claims, the stringency was
duo To lack of confidence i'm the sol
vency of our banks, will the proposal to
allow th9m to issue notes up to the face
value Of the bonds held as security tend
to increase confidence?
The News thinks not. On the con-
trary, the immediate effect of such action
would be to lessen confidence and
create distrust in quarters
where it will be the most dangerous and
damaging. Unless Mr.. Eckels has
something better 10 offer than these
two proposals the country need hope for
no adequate solution of the currency
problem from him.

SENATOR DOLPTs CRITICISM.

The first gun in the Hawaiian contest
was fired in the United States senate
yesterday by Senator Do!ph when he
offered resolution calling on the presi-
dent for copies of instructions given TO
United States ministers and naval
officers on the subject of Hawaii since
1881. Under the advice of Senator
Sherman the resolution was
not acted upon, but will again bs called
up on the return of Senator Morgan,
the chairman Of the committee on for
eign relations. Mr.. Dolph did not
measure the words OF his condemnation
of the course of Mr.. Cleveland and said
that he was justified in assuming from
the presidents message that some
thing more than moral slasion
was to be used to restore the
10 be used 10 overthrow the present
government there, it would be worse
than piracy. II would resemble asSass-
nation. These are strong expressions,
but they only Indicate the temper of the
people in regard to this
matter. When all the papers are
placed before the senate, and
the full measure of the Hawaiian policy
Of infamy is taken by the senate, its
action will undoubtedly bs equally as
energetic. Not even the president of
the United States has right TO disgrace
this nation. and the president will find
that the senate Of the United States has
been given by tho constitution of the
United States fully as much authority in
dealing with treaties with other
governments as the president himself
and that it cannot be ignored in a case
OF so much Importance as the present
one. Nj Cleveland has made serious
blundcr and he will be fortunate il he
escapes impeachment for his unwar-
ranted assumption of power. Nothing
will be rashly done by the SEN
ate. for level heads and wise councils
will prevail, but we can only hope that
Minister Willis, as appears probable,
has not attempted to carry out Cleve-
lands instructions in regard To the
queen. Should the forces of the United
States have been used for the purpose of
restoration, the present congress OF the
United States will have as serious duty
beforeit us the congress which i'm
peached President Johnson.
