SOUND SENATOR FRYE.

Senator Frye of Maine is not pessi-
mist. On the contrary, he is one of the
most optimistic Of men, and man who
through years Of experience in both
branches Of congress is thoroughly COM
petent to Judge of the effect of legisla-
tion of any kind upon the business in
dustries of the nation. Sound in his
views on finance, level-headed as re-
garding the tariff, sharing as he does
the views held by the late James O.
Blaine, a Republican par excellence, his
views on the present situation, indus
trial and financial, are worthy of repro
duction.
Senator Frye says Of Cleveland that
he credits him with honesty and sound
ness, but In this he does not represent
his party. Senator Frye does not be
lieve that congress will administer the
proper remedy for the present condition
of affairs, aud he predicts that eff there

NOT BlAMElESS,

Penury seems to have been at the
bottom Of the recent catastrophe at the
Worlds fair grounds Not satisfied
with putting up tinder box to menace
the whole White City, the owners of the
cold-storage warehouse refused to pay
for the guards on duty there, and they
were withdrawn.
Had the guards been on duty it is
probable the fire might have been dis
covered In time to have checked its
spread, and thus averted loss of life.
But is the council of administration
wholly without blame in this matter?
Certainly not, il recent reports are true.
Not only was the council aware that
the guards had been withdrawn, but the
flimsy and combustible nature of the
building had been repeatedly brought
to its attention. :
Under the circumstances it would
have been justified in closing the death
trap, and even ordering its demolition.
That it did not take some such action
leaves it open to censure and condem-
nation. Surely the sum which the
parsimonious firm paid into the treas
ury of the fair should not have blinded
the council to its manifest duty.

ENGlANp'S NAVY.

The loss Of the Victoria adds one to a
series of disasters to ships in the Eng
lish navy during the past few years
sufficient to discourage less phlegmatic
or ruin poorer nation.
Within twelve months three iron
clads, one belted cruiser and three
other cruisers have been rendered unfit
for service. Within the past few years
the English navy has experienced the
practical loss Of the Sultan, which ran
on rocks and sunk while maneuvring

struck on rocks, which had to be blasted
before she could be got of the War

entirely worthy the profound study OF
naval authorities, and the consideration
of taxpayers in America, who are just
now paying for great and costly COL
lection of warships.
1t is distressingly evident that the
English navy is made up of ships that
cannot be handled in time OF peace. and
controlled by officers who manifest con-
tinued incapacity. American naval
officers are certainly incomparably su-
perior to their English brethren, II
their recent record is to be taken as a
criterion, and there is no reason why 1T
should not be so.
1t is for the experts to determine
what effect the disasters TO the English
navy have upon the American navy. If
any. II is clear that if the great modern
warships cannot be handled in peaceful
waters, with all the advantages Of de-
liberation, thorough acquaintance with
the waters, careful preparation and un-
restricted choice Of conditions, without
constant and terrible disasters, that the
science of warfare on the water has
reached state of theoretic perfection
that promises greater destruction to
friends than to foes.
In short, the most evident demonstra-
tion made in the building of modern
vessels of war is their great cost and
their little use.
England is the only power that is
justified in maintaining great navy,
and its recent experience gives ample
ground to build very strong argument
against the very principle that excuses
any navy, except for strictly harbor de-
fense purposes. with torpedo boats and
swift cruisers.

MIDSUMMER MADNESS.

If the Atlanta Constitution voices the
sentiment of the Southern congressman,
President Cleveland has an almost hope
less task before him in endeavoring to
secure the repeal of the silver purchas-
ing clause of the Sherman law.
The Constitution insists that what
the country needs is the free coinage Of
silver, and state bank currency as wen.
1t says: with the free coinage of sill
yer and the consequent enlargement of
the basis of credit, state bank notes
properly restricted and guarded by the
law wo ould prove to be our most yalu-
able and elastic form of currency"
As to it's elasticity there can be no
question. The trouble is, however, that
this quality would be effective in one
direction only-that of shrinkage or
contraction, just as it was when the
same system of bank circulation brought
financial ruin ON the country thirty-six
years ago. The currency of those days
was elastic to the extent that working
man who had been paid dollar for his
days labor might wake up the next
morning to find it had shrunk to go or
IS cents, and in many instances to abb
solute nothingness.
Will the Constitution tell us how a
state bank currency can be properly
restricted and guarded by law"
What shall stand behind it as basis
for redemption? Shall it be silver dol
lars worth 81 cents; shall it be mortgages
on real estate which at forced sale
would return eight or ten per cent. less
than their face value, or shall it be
railroad stocks. the sport of Wall sire OF
brokers, one day kiting above par, the
next kicked out as worthless at any
price?
Surely the Constitution must be suf-
fering from an attack of midsummer
madness to seriously make the PROPOSE
tion to saddle the country with those
twin evils, free silver and wildcat cur
rency.

SILVER IN COMMERCE.

The establishment of the gold stand
ard by the government Of India will
operate to bring silver on to strictly
commercial basis in foreign countries,
and should the Sherman law be repealed
by congress next month, that act would
make it impossible to avoid like result
in this country. AZ
Such a change would operate to
seriously disturb certain values for a
time, but only for comparatively
brief period, and then silver would take
It's legitimate commercial position
alongside copper and other valuable
metals. Its value would be determined
by the enterprise of miners in adopting
improved methods and machinery for
mining, and by probably very large
increase of its use in the arts and for
articles of utility.
1t Is anticipated in England that the
action of the Indian government will of
itself bring about this result, and also
that there will be still further decrease
in the market value of the white metal.
The remarks of the silver buyer for the
Gorham company, elsewhere published,
convey like impression with respect
to his expectations regarding the course
Of the market in this country.
1t is developed by the present state Of
the silver market that the mining and
smelling methods of many great con-
Germs are SO antiquated as to make
proper profit impossible under the con-
ditions now prevailing. There must be
a considerable reform among the miners
before silver will become stable COM
mercial product, it appears.
II congress has the courage and good
sense to repeal the Sherman law it will
certainly make the business Of produc-
ing silver take its place among the
other mining industries, and compel the
adoption of the latest methods and
machinery. How it will affect its ulti-
mate price can only be determined by
trial.

CAUSE OF DISSATISFACTION.

The Journal Is disturbed because two
members of the new license board are
unknown in politics. And yet but a
few weeks ago the ex-Rhode Island
Bible was whaclsing Mr.. Wilson and
the other Republicans in the general as
sembly for passing a law which in its
jaundiced view was intended to turn
the license boards into political ma
chimes.
The source OF the Journals present
dissatisfaction is to be found in the fact
that II can find nothing in the workings
of the new law at which to hurl its dis
peptic diatribes. For its own peace Of
mind this is to be regretted, but the pub
lie viii congratulate itself on being safe,
even for short time at least, from its
pessimistic palaver.
