silver and the seIgniorage.


II there should happen to be reader
of the Revie,O Of Reviews who does not
understand exactly what is meant by Mr..
BANDS proposal to put $50, 100000 into
the treasury by "ceining the seigniorage,n
he need not feel especially discouraged.
There are members OF Congress who
would find il hard to explain clearly.
The word seigniorage has, usually been
applied to the mere fraction of one per
cent. charged at the mint to converting
bullion into cein. A broader definition,
however and one that is sanctioned by the
"Century Dictionary" is as follows:
'sThe difference between the cost of a
mass of bullion and the face value of the
money coined from it," Now the Sher-
man act called for the purchase by the
government OF 4, $780, 900 ounces OF silver
bullion each month at the current or mar
ket price for silver bullion. The govern
ment paid for the bullion in special treas
ury notes. Inasmuch as the price of sill
yer was constantly fdetusting, the volume
of these notes issued from month to month
was never the same, although such month
ly issues were always based upon pract-
cally the same quantity Of bullion. Alto
gether, from the time Of the passage OF
the Sherman act in July, 1890, up to its
repeal on November l, 1898, somewhat
less than 1854, 900, 900 was issued 10 treas
ury notes in payment for great mass OF
silver that now lies in government vaults.
The Sherman act made these
notes redeemable in gold or silver coin,
and gave the Secretary OF the Treasury
authority at his discretion TO coin the sill
yer. But 1t will require number of
years, working all the minis at full capa-
city, to manufacture the 200, 00e, 900 sill
yer dollars for which there is no demand.
Mr.. BANDS idea is to expand the circu-
lating currency represented by this mass
of silver from the outstanding issue OF
treasury notes to an amount 500, 100000
greater, by treating the whole of 1t as II it
were deposit of coined silver dollars, for
each of which corresponding paper dol
lar should be sent out. II this measure
should become law, its effect would be
TO put $50, 900, 900 into the treasury of
the government to help to Secretary out
Of the difficulties occasioned by the ser
ious deficiencies in the current revenue.
But, inasmuch as the continued deprecia-
ton of silver has made the mass bought
under the Sherman act worth in the mar
ket to-day considerably less even than the
1854, 900, 900 of treasury notes, it is plain
that the issue OF additional notes as
against the seignierage so-caled would be
better than an out-npd-out issue OF fiat
money. In fact, as between this PROPOSE
ton and that of the Greenbackers, who
have always consistently demanded the
unambiguous issue of treasury notes Sc
cured by nothing but the credit of the ma
ton, the latter method weuld seem pre-
ferable. Moreover, the proposition helps
the silver mining industry in no manner
directly or in directly. 1t is n make-shifi
that has little 10 commend it and that is
Objectionable upon many grounds. From
"1he Progress of the World" Marcel
Revies0 of Reuiet0s.

The late Mr. George W. Chids was bet
ter known as an individual giver than
perhaps any other man in the United
States 1t is no exaggeration to say that
Mr. Childs, for the last half OF his life,
put more time, labor and pains into the
work of giving than be did into making
money. To many people be seemed to
scatter his gifts broadcast and bestow
them Unfortunately. but his giving was
not without methed. In the RecieaC of
ReVie,0s for March MIR. Childs' method of
giving is appreciatively yet discriminat-
ingly described by Talcott Williams of the
Philadelphia Press. This article is illus
trated with portraits Of Mr.. Childs, at diff
ferent ages, and engravings of some of
his most notable gifts.

EDITOR RECORD IL have often won
dersd why i. is .ha! the hsb! of drinking
Intoxicating liquors, has been singled out
as the one scarlet sin that should be es
chewed, and that the drink abit alone is
held up to public execration, while there
are other sins against God and man that
pass in manner unnoticed by these who
are engaged in reforming mankind.
While do not defend or excuse the
drink habit, and believe that the angels
shout with joy over every one reclaimed
from drinking, at the same Time l believe
that the dsinker is not the only sinner
that should be looked after.
The apostle says that ''none are per-
fect," and ii also is said ''let him that is
without sin cast the first stone" How
important it is then, that we cast the
beam out from our swn eye, in order that
we may see clearly to pull the mote from
our neighbours eye.
Why is not the hypocrite scored in our
churches and societies with the same vim
and iuvective as the drunkard, when the
very foundation Of society Is undermined
by the Vaccinations OF those who profess
goodness in order apparently that they
may the more readily dupe their victims.
There Is manya man that gets drunk,
whose character for honesty In his inter.
course beth with men and women is above
repreach, while there are many who
would be Mortified at the thought of tax
ing drink, who do not hesitate to cheat
In business, or to lend helping hand to
defeat justice, 10 enter int intrigues
that destroy many home, or to despOil
innocent youth of its virtue.
Then let each one Of us look within and
see that we are honest and pure, that we
are honest In our business transactions,
that we are strictly virtuous, that we do
not gossip and circulate scandals about
our neighbors, and in short, be sure that
In csndemning the failiugs of our fellows,
that it is not case of ''5atan condemning
sin"
Taking this view of the case, would it
not be we'll fer our ministers and societies
to deuounce dishonesty in business trans
actions, and immoral practices generally,
aud to hold them up to public view. aud
to denounce them with the same vigsr
aud inyective that is applied to the liquor
habit.
