UN-EEPUBLlCAN STATE GOVERN.
NIfNT~

Immediately after the war, when the
Republican party was in absolute and
complete control Of all three branches
Of the Government. nothing delighted the
political leaders ot those days more than
to demand Republican governments for
the Southern States. 1t was constantly
urged as a proicXt for sending Federal
troops into these States for the purpose
OF taking charge of their local govern
ments that those governments were TN
Republican and that. under the Cons.i.u-
tion. Congress and the administration
had a right to regulate them. OF late
years this cry has not been so frequently
heard. bat IL is. nevertheless, stm one
OF the favonte tenets OF the Radical
party, for upon no other ground could
they urge the force bills. which they are
so anxious TO fasten upon the Southern
States.
But never in the history Of the world
was there "a party so fun Of Inconsistent
cics as the Rcprbicaa. ard never was
there one 10 whom tine charges of keep
ing beams Ia theiy own eyes while trying
10 pull notes out Of tie eyes Of others.

90, ,,i,,aou-v,ines and double shufftes. we
intend to bother you with some more
Questions when you answer the ABOVE
Times .. .,,o
Tben we would better not answer the
first question.-Dispatch of yesterday
Very well. AS the Dispatch will ex-
press no opinion upon the questions asked
we must suppose it is without information
r.enocting them. and therefore has no
opinion; for we cannot suppose that an
independent journal can have opinions
upon such important public questions and
he either afraid or unwilling 70 express
those opinions. We will, therefore, supply
the Dispatch, gratis, with information
upon which it can form an opinion. This
Government had coined, up TO 1913. only
5000 900 Of silver dollars and these, through
being undervalued, were not in circula-
ton. but had left the country or had been
melted by manufacturers. The Congress
which passed the demonetizing act under
stood perfectly what it was doing The
DISPATCH can find record proof Of both
these statements II it will examine the
references in our articles Of last Sunday
and Tuesday.
There is then no reason 20 remonetize
silver to wipe out a fraud, for no fraud
has been committed. and there is no rea-
son TO do so 10 restore to the country
currency that it had i'm 1873, for the coun-
try has never had a silver currency except
a subsidiary silver currency for change,
in which the pieces were worth much
less than they purported TO be worth, and
were legal tender Tor only s., and the
demonetizing act left them this just as it
had been. Now this being so. the Dis
patch, Mr.. Todd and the other free silver
advocates, are demanding. not the restora-
ton of am old currency that was dropped,
but the beginning of what is. % this coun-
try. an entirely new form of currency,
to wit. the silver dollar. But in beginning
this new form Of currency, the Dispatch
and the other free siiyerites. demand that
the silver dollar shall contain only 40 IL
grains Of silver. which is worth only two
thirds Of the gold dollar, but that the
silver dollar shall have by law an the
purchasing and debt paying power Of the
more valuable gold dollar. Now we ask
the Dispatch this question. Why I'm start
ing the new currency viii you make it
two-thirls as valuable as the gold cur
rency, which you profess 20 make it the
equal of? Why not start IL only one-half
as valuable? II you can pinch off third.
why can you not pinch of a half? And
why make it equal 10 one-half? Why not
start it al a quarter or why not start
it at five cents? If you can make sixty
five cents do the work of 100 cents, why
can YOU not make nifty cents do the same
work. and if fifty cents. why not five
cents2 II the Dispatch and the other free
silveritcs are right we are unable 10 un-
derstand why these consequences cannot
be made 10 follow. and we want light.

The latest exploit Of Sullivan. the brute.
shows that he is nothing more than a
coward. Having. without the slightest
cause kicked a one-armed man in the
stomach. he was about 20 be thrashed
severely by the man he had assaulted.
the latter. despite his one arm. having
turned him over a car seat. While thus
in position to avenge himself upon his
brutal assailant, the one-armed hero was
struck by one of Sullivan's friends in the
face, and then Sullivan himself choked
him. And so the ex-champion OF the
world, as he proudly calls himself, had
to call a friend TO his assistance 10 help
him beat cripple. 1t would have been
the act Of a miserable coward had he.

pals, attacked a healthy and sound man.

wonder that somebody does not shoot the

Some people who pride themselves on
the high standard of "Americanism TO
which they have attained are greatly
disappointed because every one of the
several tunes called upon TO do service
as a national air-even the famous "Doo-
die" tune-are of foreign origin. This
leads the Chicago Herald TO suggest:
why not have one of our poets write
some stirring words 20 "Ta-ra-ra- boom
de-aye.' and adopt that? Ii is conceded
ON all sides that the air originated in

adopted 10y the Postmaster-Generalr cfus-
ius 20 discharge fourth-ciass postmastcrs

cause they are Republicans. and who
have had no charges brought against
them. When The action of the Republican
party in turning out postmasters by the

Democrats. is remembered. this rule seems
very hard. IL is likely that the Presi-
dent WAL not uphold the Postmaster
General in his course. but if he does

The official statement Of the japanese
Customs Bureau shows that Japan's trade
with the United States is increasing much
more rapidly than 1t is with England
France or Germany. The statement
shows that during the four years, lSS9-92
the aggregate trade with Germany re-
NAMED nearly stationary at an average
Increase of 100000. The trade with
France increased URevenly from 17,592,S9i
10 2l.7l419i yen. The trade with the Brit
ish Empire increased from s., 1856 10
56.193,2H. But the trade with the United
States expanded from 81, 1904 yen TO
A O8 yen. This increase was due in
the main TO our importation of Japanese
silks and teas. The japanese direct i'm
ports from the United States amounted to
only s6.OO00OO, but there are indications
that this win grow rapidly. The trade
with the British Empire is largely a
colonial trade, The trade with Great
Britain itself decreased in the four years
mentioned from SS7S2.58i yen to 24,7n,oSi
yen.

Dependent Children.

To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
Is 1t possible at this late date to have q
rehearing on the bill relating to dependent
children, noticed in the COURIER Gs having
passed the senate and returned from the
house with some immateiisl amendmentai
This bill proposes to destroy the uaeful-
ness of the county homes as temporary
shelters for unfortunate children. It will
practically prevent in future the putting
out OF children with private families as
heretofore, but inst1c1 they may bs placed
in denominstional institutions to be sup
ported there at the State expsnse, or they
may be sent to almshouses If that be con
side1ei preferable.
This bill has been so skillfully managed
that the opponents of such a radical change
in this important matter do not appear to
have heard of 1t until 1t has reached its
present stage. It's possibilities for evil sre
great. Can anything now be done to pre-
vent the mischief
