Every nation on the globe is suffering
by reason Of the scarcity Of money. The
world cannot produce gold and silver
fast enough to keep pace with the de-
mand. The cheapest food supplies on
earth are in China. yet famine prevails
there to an alarming extent, and not .
night darkens that thousands do not lie
down in the throes Of starvation. The
food is in the country. but the people
have not the money with which to buy

. BRIEF HISTORY OF THE q. 3.
SILVER DOLLAR.

We find the following in the New
York Empire Of Finance and Trade:
In July 6, 1855. the Continental Con-
gress established the silver dollar, al
though the exact weight was not fixed
until Aug. s. 1856, when il was made
equal to that Of the old Spanish dollar
whose weight was 4l6 grains Of stand
ard silver and 1924 fine. This was
equivalent to STA grains Of fine silver
with AL grains Of crude silver. This
dollar, however, did not originate with
the Spsniards. but was first coined and
called q thaler at a mining town in
Bohemia. Previous to July, 1885, the
colonies used the English coinage. The
weight Of this coin was changed in 1887
by Act of Jan. is to 4l2i grains Of 900
fine, preserving the same amount Of pure
silver, equal to 37li grains with Ito
alloy. This Act was discontinued by
Act Of February IL. 1873.

The conundrum Of the day IL how u
happened that Cleveland submitted the
question Of the constitutionality Of the
Geary Act to the Supreme Court. Since
he suspended the Act for several weeks
without the semblance Of authority the
wonder is why he didn't suspend ID in
definitely and declare il unconstitutional
by the sovereign will Of Grover the first.
This 10 what the six Chinese companies
and the muawumps had every reason 10
suppose he would do. The decision
shows that the valiant Governor of Ore
gon. Pennoyer. had the thing properly
sized up when he resented the insult
from the White House . few weeks ago.

PERPLExITles BEsETrlN0 THE
ADMINISTRATION.

The announcement Of Cleveland years
ago, that at is Q condition and not .
theory that confronts us" 10 now being
verified in moro ways than one. Be
tween tariff reform 30 decidedly prom
ised during the last campaign, the inan-
cial question aud the carrying into effect
Of the Gesry law, :he present admins
tration seems indeed TO be confronted
with conditions which are worrying ii.
On eli those questions the demands OF
the masses have been time and again
expressed in . manner that leaves no
doubt. On the other hand, the money
kings. corporations that demand cheap
labor, and religious fanatics. oil seem to
combine in solid phalanx and to leave no
means unemployed to engage the ear
and heart Of the administration in their
behalf and - far as in their power lies
TO frustrate such legislation as the peo-
pie have SO often demanded and In turn
been promised.
just listen to the Rev. MI. Psyson:
1--WE combined with Europe to break
down the Chinese wall, and now with
charming consistency we build . wall
against the Chinese. The inherent and
inslionable right Of men to change homes
and allegiance are recognized In our ia
nous Burlingame treaty with China,
made in 1865" What miserable srgu.
ment. What rot some Of those fanat.
los have TO resort to to sustain their hs.
rangues for sentimental sympathy Do
these pets Of theirs ZONE to this country
TO change their homes and allegiance
Is IL not o we'll known fact that the re-
verse 10 truei That they not only have
NO intention Of making this country
their home and changing their ale
glance, but are here to make all the
money they can, 60 back to China when
they have accumulated as much ss they
desire. and IL they happen to die here
their bones must be shipped back to
their native country! Even il they de-
sired TO change their allegiance they
could not possibly do so as both their
own laws and the laws Of this country
are in opposition to any such desire.
Would il not be more In conformity
with Christianity for these sorrowing
champions Of Chinese unguaranteed
rights 10 look nearer at home and ad-
vocate the rights of those who are here.
who have come in good faith with the
intention Of changing their homes and
allegiance and have done so, and who are
now and forever parts Of this common.
~wealth-men TO whom the country can
look 70 in case Of need to defend the in
situations they have sworn to protect
and uphold the Constitution they have
sworn to obeyl
Another part Of their appeal Is the
rot that the Geary law was passed for
the purpose Of driving the Cinnamon
already here out Of the country. A
lie made Of whole cloth. The law was
really Q measure Of protection for those
already here and would have been
complied with readily only for the OPP
position Of the ak companies who saw
in the compliance with the law IN end
TO their profitable obstruction Of the
existing exclusion laws.
