votional exercises.
The topics discussed were the man
agement and methods OF teaching IN

that good things were said, new IDEAS
deyeloped and valuable Information
given would be but little. Because OF
the announcement and enthusiasm
gained by all Sunday School workers
who attended this Association there
will be lasting impressions scattered
abroad in the bounds Of this Assocla-
tion that will doubtless speak favora-
bly, In that blissful happiness through
out the endless ages OF eternity.

Third-That we as members OF "Ihe

sent some Individual specializing

brations."
Fourth-That 1t is the voice OF this
Association that Rev. L. E. Peters con-
slider himself obligated to conduct onr
next annual association.
Fifth-That in view OF the growth Of
the drink habit, and the apparent apa-

President CLEVELAND in his message
places the situation before Congress
and the people with the precision Of
photographers camera.
The document is TO the point and as
brief and clear as it is conclusive.
Mr.. CLEVELAND presents evidence
that will not be honestly questioned
from Colorado to Wall street, that gold
and silver in the present emergency
must, for the time, part company, 50
far, at least. as the monthly purchase
Of 4, SOC, 900 ounces Of silver to be coin
ed into ffty-cent dollars, as lnforeed by
the Sherman act, is concerned, and I'M
I'll the United States are relieved OF the
oppressive burden Of maintaining, sim
gle-handed against the world, the pari-
" of silver with gold.
The evidence he produces Of the neces-
slty for the immediate repeal OF the
compulsory silver purchase clause oil
the sherman act is so conclusive that
the most rabid free silver coinage advo-
cate, If he have a spark OF patriotism
in him, must recognize its overwhelm-
ing weight and force aud truth.
President CLEVELAND, while point
Ing out the fact that bi-metallism Is
the established policy Of the United
States, also points out that it must
give way in a measure, or for the time
being. at least, unless the remainder OF
the world is 10 be permitted TO bring so
cents worth Of silver into the United
States and take out dollars worth in
values.
The continuance Of compulsory silver
purchases must finally result in COM
pletely wiplug out the 500, 900, 600 gold
reserve, should the United States alone
shoulder the burden at this juncture of
keeping the two metals on a parity on
the basis OF the sherman law. The
gold reserve would have to be replenish-
ed by a further issue of bonds, and
when the gold nations Of the world
had taken advantage Of our currency
policy to absorb this gold, another bond
issue would follow and so on until the
United States would be left with de-
preciated currency solely Of silver.
The President makes clear also the
effect OF this, which would be to vastly
increase the advantages the creditor
class, whose money is gold, now have
over the debtor class, whose money
would then be solely Of deprecated
silver. -
As Mr.. CLEVELAND shows, the fiat
Of the United States government 3 not
recognized outside Of the United States,
and that while silver may be coined in
its proper proportion without ipiury to
our currency a continuance Of its en-
forced coinage under the Sherman law
must prove disastrous to the people.
The message is as sound aud logical
from the irst TO the last word as it Is
brief and to the point. 1t clinches the
low generally accepted argument
against the sherman act.
In CONCLUSION Mr.. CLEVELAND wisely |
points oEt that party politics enter into
no phase Of the discussion, and adjures
members Of Congress TO act with an eye
solely to the interests Of the country,
which is in 4 prosperous condition aud
lacks only confidence In its currency.
