The SILVER QUESTION.
One Way in Which 1t Could be Settled
Permanently.

One Way in Which 1t Could be Settled
Permanently.
The United States are strong
enough financially to impose any
reasonable money standard upon the
world. But if the Congress is unable
to agree upon the question OF free
coinage. the following suggestion
might be adopted as q sort of "pi>
sller." 1t is from the Engineering
and Mining Journal, of New York
City:
We would again suggest that "The
Silver Question:" with its vast and
incalculable possibilities for good or
i'll, for the prosperity or bankruptcy
of the greater part OF the human race.
be submitted to the arbitrament, de-
cision and control of an international
Monetary Clearing House, or oom
mission, composed of expert repre-
sentatives OF the nations. empowered
and instructed by their respective
governments:
First-,-To select q universal none
tary standard;
Second-To adopt measures for Sc
curing the use OF gold and silver on
such fexible ratio as will effect per.
manent stability in the value OF the
worlds money;
Third-To adopt measures for IA
cilitating international monetary
transactions and for their supervision
and control.
The experience of the past justiies
the belief that such a body of experts,
representing the interests of the civ
ilized world, would arrive at a wiser
snd juster solution OF the problem
than could be expected from the more
or less biased Legislators Of any one
country.
This Monetary Clearing House, ex
ercising functions somewhat similar
to those of q bank clearing house,
would prevent any sudden changes
and fluctuations in the valne of the
money OF the world, which changes
are so disastrous in every department.
of industry aud commerce; yet this
would not prevent a natural and
gradual evolution toward a sing e
standard for unlimited legal tender
money, should such ever become de-
sirsble.
In establishing on an absolutely
stable, permanent basis the money el
the whole world and in providing a
universal currency, good the world
over, and in exercising a saIutary
supervision and control over all the
monetary transactions of nations. it
would develop confidence every " here
