Charles Nordhof, the New York Herdlds

A. d. Spreckels also spoke positively
on the situation, saying the return of

A Possibility That the Silver Advocate
May Not be Reappointed Chairman of
the House Committee on Coinage.
WASHINGTON, July 3,-Owing to the
fact that a betterment of the national
finances will be the first and gTavest
problem TO be confronted, particular in
terest attaches to the House committee
on coinage of the next Congress. An
adverse committee would be in position
to very considerably obstruct business
and worry the advocates Of the repeal
Of the Sherman law.
Whether or not Mr., Bland will be re-
appointed chairman, no one appears to
know to certainty. His record as an
earnest and answering friend of silver,
is well known, and his Democracy is
unquestioned. When speaker is re-
elected II has generally been his custom
to reappoint the old committee chair
men, The doubt in the case of Mr.,
Bland arises from the fact that Mr..
Crisp Is well-known to be in thorough
sympathy with the Presidents idea of
legislative needs, and may hesitate TO
appoint to SO important committee a
man SO thoroughly committed TO an OPP
posite view,

lasted for 30 minutes, and when Speaker
Crisp emerged from the Secretary's room
he complained Of feeling indisposed, but
said the interview telegraphed from
Atlanta was substantially correct.
Representative Bynum had a short
talk with Speaker Crisp in Secretary
Carlisle's room and afterward said he
was satisfied that the next House would
repeal Internationally the Sherman law.

Senator Gray's expression of his posi-
tion Is very puzzling one, and it may
mean either one Of two things. To use
the vernacular, the financial position
ybe only in his head, or he may have
1t all in his head; and, we trust, it may
be the latter; but it is very evident that
the impression given by the report In
the Morning Neos Of Saturday, and APP
parently endorsed by Mr., Gray, is that
it is the former. If this is the case, it is
one of the saddest examples of con-
fusion of thought brought about by the
financial conditions in this country in
the past few years.

Every available craft in the harbor was

Turning to the files Of the DelaWarc

of that Fourth of July of three score
years ago the following editorial para
graph, written when the struggle for
American independence was almost as
recent in memory of living men as the
war of the rebellion now is:
Considering that these United States
have been the birthplace of this glorious
spirit of liberty which is now spreading
itself to the terror and dismay of despots,
how agreeable Is 1t at such q period to
reflect upon the happy situation in which
We are now placed Oar trials are all
over; the struggle is ended; the object for
which so much labor and suffering were
endured has been accomplished, while
other nations still have the work to per-
form; and, like travellers after having per
formed long and tiresome journey. we
have seated ourselves on commanding
eminence, beneath the shade of our own
vine, from which We may look down upon
those who are toiling and straining to
reach the same enviable height.
