to further free-coinage has been ex-
hausted.
The Democrats are at present in the
position of having yielded all that was
asked to the free silverites. How far
they will carry this obliging spirit re-
mains TO be seen.
1t is comforting, in one sense, to know
that the debate on silver is to endure
but fourteen days, and that there will
then be vote taken, but the comfort
would be somewhat more solid If the
terms had been proposed by the friends
of repeal. The mere fact that the free
coinage contingent has been allowed to
dictate the terms OF the debate Is dis
quieting. and some indication that this
point was agreed upon and is in the ma
ture of a concession to the weaker ele-
ment will now be anxiously looked for.

THE TWO SILVER BILLS.

The action of the house of representa-
tives yesterday in voting to limit debate
on the silver bills presented to two
weeks is encouraging because it indi-
Gates that so far as the popular branch
of congress is concerned no time will be
wasted in affording relief to the country
from its present serious and still more
threatening ills.
Two bills are now before the house.
One presented by Mr.. Wilson of West
Virginia provides for the repeal OF the
purchasing clause in the Sherman act
but still maintains the standard silver
dollar at it's face value. 1t also pledges
the faith of the United States to pre-
serve the present or any other ratio be-
tween gold and silver which may be
adopted
The second bill is that framed by Mr..
Bland and it provides for the free coin
age of silver at a ratio of 10 to of gold.
1t need not be said that Mr.. Wilson's
Intdsutt 10 tDt ouc budJ suOulu Dt
adopted, nor is it necessary to point out
that, should Mr.. BANDS bill become a
law, the condition of the country would
speedily become more deplorable than
it is at present.
Mr.. Raynor's argument in favor of
the first was sound and convincing, ex-
cept to those who have been inoculated
with the free silver views. His declar-
alton that while the opening of the
mipts for the unlimited coinage of the
white metal might for time maintain
the fictitious value of the coin disaster
would certainly follow, will be accepted
as unanswerable by every capable and
impartial student of this important
question.
What the country needs is not more
bnt less silver. When the great com
mercial nations of the world adopt a
uniform bimetallic standard this coun-
try may without danger enter upon free
coinage. To do so before such an inter-
national agreement is reached would
be to invite disaster in comparison with
which our present difficulties are insig-
nificaut,

THE SILVER DEBATE.

The debate on the repeal of the silver.
purchasing clause of what is known as
the Sherman act is fairly launched in
congress, under conditions proposed by
Che most radical advocate of free
coinage endorsed by the Democratic
majority.
Free Coinage Bland has dictated the
course Of che silver discussion, and the
order Of voting on the bill 10 repeal.
He has provided that In advance of a
vote on the bin as introduced there shall
be sundry attempts 10 pass some sort of
, free-coinage measure, and only con-
cedes . vote upon the merits Of the
question after every pessible expedient

in need of Incorporation to enable him TO
perform the duties of the presidential
Office later in the fail.
1t is not good news that Mr.. Cieve-
land is obliged to thus sacrifice Official
duties, SO soon after having enjoyed a
prolonged period of almost absolute
rest. The country hopes that its presl-
dent may not be incapacitated for duty,
especially as it remembers who ana
what its vice president is.
