A. A.AIlen-lt is cheering news. The
house recognizes the voice of the peo-
pie. J. II. is the entering wedge to pave
the way for sound carreucy. [ want
the silver dollar to be worth 100 cents

Hon. John F. Meagfer, of Mankato,
was one of the best-pleased guests at
the Merchants yesterday when the
vote OF the house on the stOppage of sill
yer purchases was anuounced. He
said: ''lt is lrnost positive assurance
that the senate will respond to the pub
lie SCI, timent and SoeH fall into line on
this question. Ii will restore conf
Uence and -De great relief to the eoun-
Try. The silver purchase act was unde-
sirable i'll that it caused an immense
pilIng up Of bullion, which, like an over
stock OF any commodity. caused depre-
ciaton in its value. Had the silver
gone into circulation among our great
population and through other channels,
lis influence would. i'll ali probability,
have been satisfactory. 1t is now likely
that the path will soon be clear for more
feasible. more effective legislation ON
silver. and would not bs surprised to
SEE the next regular session of congress
enact that no bills smaller than 50. and
no gold below the denomination OF $40
be issued as currency. Thus the silver
dollars and smaller silver coin would
come into circulation among the masses
of the people, anu surely a silver sub
sidiary coinage would be quite as accept
able, tor general purposes, as 81 anu -
bills. A provision would have to be
made for tile delivery by express or 9TH
erwise. of coins in lots of 81, 600 or more,
without expense. Then The remote
parts OF the country could avail them
selves of the use of silver, and the finan-
cial institutions would be- able TO circu-
| late 1t without loss.
e. t. SIay ton-rhe repeal of the
| Sherman act is enc of the best things

result will be that the bill will pass the
senate by large majority.
| Col. MOnfort-The repeal of the pur-

| one of the best things that was ever
done for this country.
| w. S. Yetter--So far as | am con-
| cerned, the action of congress to-day
salts me to Il"
/ w. S. Myers-The action of the lower
| house of congress convinceS me that the
Senate has received lesson which 1t

the senate may be small. but the repeal

ID. NJ. Dwyer-The repeal OF the Sher-
| man act should have taken place SIX
| weeks ago. L cannot understand why
representatives of the people should not
know as much.aS the people.
| E. nj. Dudley Good for congress!
have moro faith i'll the American people

Z. V. Daily-The repeal of the pur-
! chasing clause in the Sherman act meets
with the admiration OF the entire coun-
try. 1t is evident 10 everybody that
there can be but a single standard for
the money of the United States. An
| honest dollar will always outweigh a
| dishonest coin.
j. E. Flanagan-Has the repeal bill of
the Sherman act passed the house?
Good! That will give it great impetus
in the senate.
b. +, FerriS-I am glad that the lower
house of congress has seen fit to do the

Ii. Woodland There are good times
coming. Now is the time 10 buy real

Charles T. Mahler-The action of the
| lower house of congress proves to Inc
that similar position will be taken by
| the senate. 1t goes a long way towards
restoring confidence among the people.
There is plenty of money in the
country, but there exists, alSo; a feeling
that the government of the United
States is trying to f1imfiam them. Sc
soon as this confidence is restored good
times will come again.
j. A. Wheelock-CongresS has acted
on the advice OF the Pioneer Press.
William X. Merram-Ibe result is
no more than could nave been expected
by all reasonable men Interested in the
welfare of the country. The majority
in congress In favor of repeal is some
what larger than l had expected, but
the people will now see that the fina
court of appeals is the congress of ths
United States. Do think the bill will
pass the senate? Certainly l do.
