MIR. CLEyELANp's DECISIVE ACTION.

while the press dispatches were repre-
senting through the past week that Secre-
tary Carlisle would discriminate against
the Treasu notes issued for silver pur-
chases under the act OF 1890 and known
as Treasury notes. or coin certificates
and would refuse to redeem them In gold'

what would happen and what would not
happen If he did The Times kept It's own
counsel. knowing perfectly we'll that the
Government would never refuse payment
OF any OF its notes in gold. since the
moment II did so It would discriminate
against silver and put gold TO premium
| When Ir. Carlisle's not very clear state
ment on the subject appeared yesterday
morning, we felt sure that he intended TO
say that all OF the Governments oblga-
tions would be paid in gold il gold were
demanded for them, although many SEN
sible and wise men took the view that he
would refuse TO redeem the coin certi'
ficates with gold. In the afternoon. how
ever, the telegraph brought the news that
Mr.. Cleveland had notified the Secretary
OF the Treasury that there must be no
discrimination, but that the coin certi-
ficates must be redeemed in gold on de-
mand. This at once restored confidence
and went as far as anything could go
towards curing a hopeless case. since
nothing but an unconditional repeal of the
Sherman act can ever restore the patient

REGULATION RUN MAD.

Last week 100 members OF the Illinois
House Of Representatives voted that the
following amendment to the State con-
stitution shall be submitted to the voters
OF the State 10 determine whether II snail
or shall not be incorporated into the con-
stitutlon Of the State:
THAT the General Assembly shall have
power and II shall be its duty to enact
and provide for the enforcement Of all
laws that II shall deem necessary TO regu-
late and control contracts. conditions. and
relations existing or arising from time
10 time between corporations and their
employees"
This is one OF the doctrines for which
the Chicago Socialists. and no doubt the
Anarchists, too, contend. and they have
so inundated political parties In Illinois
that this large number Of her House OF
Representatives voted for the resolution
and only ten members voted against it.
No proposition short of socialism, pure
and simple, could possibly be more radi-
cal and revolutionary than this. 1t de-
clares that when two persons. one being
a corporation. have entered into a def
mite and specific contract, the Legislature
may. when either complains that he finds
the contract is not 10 his liking. enact
and enforce a law 10 remodel the bar
gain they had deliberately made and make
a new bargain between them that will be
more agreeable TO the dissatisfied party.
1t is not at all surprising that Chicago's
revolutionists should demand a constitu-
tional provision like this. but it is abso-
lutely astounding that the Legislature Of
Illinois should cast such a vote upon it.

Secretary Carlisle has decided to still
pay silver certificates. given for silver
bullion deposited in the treasury. in gold.
IT was generally believed that he would
continue TO do this until driven to do
otherwise. as by that means alone can
the parity between gold and silver be
maintained. The Secretary has had
offers of large amounts of gold from the
West TO relieve the situation in the treas
ury. and he will not begin silver pay
ments until he finds it impossible to pay
out gold and still keep the reserve re-
demption fund OF 500 900 intact.

Some unprincipled Republican papers
persist in positively asserting that the
Democratic Administration intend TO re-
impose the duty on sugar. They do
this only in the hope Of deceiving some
OF the ignorant readers. for they know
that the Administration contemplates
rcthing OF the sort. But Republicans
think that the end justihes the means.

party with falsehoods 1t is all right.

The Crab and the Sea Anenone.

Some crustaceans hide their shells I'M
der another sea creature, apparently to
protect themselves. A certain hermit
crab found in the Mediterranean sea is
fond of sea anemone, and it is unusual
to find shell which hermit has chosen
for his house unprotected by his anemone
friend. A gentleman relates that he
captured and put in a large aquarium
one Of these sea anemones on shell in
which was hermit crab who seemed al
ready to have outgrown his house.
"All went well for awhile" he writes.
"Then the hermit grew SO large that he
had to leave his shell and abandon his
friend. An hour after the hermit left
his old shell | looked at the aquarium
again and was surprised to find the sea
anemone on top of the new shell which
the hermit crab had adopted as his dwell
ing. They both seemed very well salts
fed.
GLOW had the anemone come there? I
soon found cut. cautiously lifted the
shell to the surface Of the water and let
the anemone fall to the bottom of the
aquarium. Then put the shell down
near it.
Hardly had the crustacean touched
bottom before he seized the anenaone
with one claw, then with two, and l saw
at once what he intended to do.
"Witll great care he went to work to
replace the anemone on the shell. He
found the ane1none upside down, and he
took great pains to set it upright again
Then be grasped it firmly with two
claws and raised it and placed it on the
shell. For 10 minutes he remained per-
fectly motionless, pressing it firmly on
to the shell all the time. Then he very
cautiously took away first one claw and
then the other.
~ was pleased to see that when he
moved the sea anemone remained in
place as firmly fixed as the energetic
little crab could wish"
