The deciiae of silver has continued to
the po;at where it is one of the most re-
markaale phenomena of the age. The
financial columns of yesterdays PRESS
showed bar silver down to 63 3-4. This
means that the actual ratio of gold to
silver is about to 80, instead of l to 16,
as it is fixed by law, and that the silver
in the dollar is worth little over forty
nine cents. This tremendous fall has
taken place almost entirely within the
last twenty years, disorganizing the
finances of great realms and confound-
ing economists. When the remarkable
events of the nineteenth century are
summed up this portentous fall of silver
cannot fail to have high place on the
list

The condition of Italy is still causing
a deal of solioitude in Europe. The So
cialistic elements have been SO strength
ened by the prevailing poverty as to be-
come formidable both in the manipula-
ton or civil affairs and IN the melting of
disorders. Added to this is the fact that
"a large proportion of the most intelligent
Italians abstain entirely from voting and
any other participation in politics. This
is because they sympathize with the
Pope, who is the head of their religion
and whose claim of leadership in temporal
affairs, as well, is denied by King Hum
bert's government. With the socialistic
classes so active and the large fraction
of the order-loving class so Indifferent,
there has been great difficulty in main
tanning the equilibrium of the State.
The national assembly has shown, by
the different occasions on which it has
disgraced itself, that it does not fairly
represent the sober sense of that nation.
So in the crisis Premier Crispi, who Is
standing forth as tower of strength,
has deferred the ASSENT bly, of the depu-

Massa-Carrara, the mountainous marble
mining region which lies in the heart of
Italy. A feeling of insecurity prevails
even in Rome itself; but the general
opinion seems to be that Crispi will win
ultimately, and that the social revolu-
ton" will not begin in Italy this year.

In Washington, today, another victory
for the cause of arbitration is to be OBJ
tanned. Brazil and the Argentine Repub-
lie have controversy over piece of ter
ritory known as "The Missiones," which
lies at the juncture of the two countries
with Paraguay, and has been the subject
of controversy for many years. The
claims of the two parties largely depend
upon the Identification of river
marked on an ancient map, and the
search for proof bearing upon this point
has led to thorough search of the
archives and libraries, not only of Ar
gentina and Brazil, but of Portugal,
Spain and the Vatican. President Cleve-
land has been selected as the arbitrator,
and the two sides will be presented to
him for decision If the South Ameri-
can Republics, which we are accustomed
to regard as semi-civilized, and prone to
war, can agree to submit their differences
to the arbitration of a friendly power,
why should not the highly civilized ma
tions of Europe be able to follow the
same wise policy?

That the members of the A. o. q. w
in this city appreciated the, dement's t6
be derived from the forming or sepa'
rate State Jurisdiction for West Vir'
GINA is very evident from the interest
taken in the proposed mass meeting to
DC held in the A. o. Z. w. Temple for
the purpose Of outlining plan for It's
formation. aud from the lively interest
manifested by the mem bers throughout
the State. Grand Master Workman
A.. A. Anderson, Of .Pennsylva-
mia, was in the city Friday, hav-
ing stopped over on his way
home from Charleston, where he insti-
tuted a new lodge of 125 members on
Wednesday evening.
Welcome Lodge No. 6, which meets
on Thursday evening, had made ar
engagements to entertain the Grand
Master, but owing to his train being
several hours late and the extreme I'M
certainty OF its arrival the meeting ad
iourned at IL o'clock with the me bers
feeling very much disappointed, as they
had arranged for rousing old-time
meeting.
Welcome lodge with her accustomed
enterprise will ipaugurate on the last
meeting night in September series OF
lectures. The first will take place at
that time and will be by the Hon. G..
d. Cranmsr who has selected for his
subject European Travel" The mem
bers and their families have indeed a
treat in store for them on that occa-
sion.
Excelsior Lodge No. 10, which meets
in the Temple Monday evenings, held q
very entertaining aud instructive ses-
sion on last Monday evening and In
itiated two candidates. As result two
more homes are protected and death
robbed OF half his sting should he lay
his icy hand upon the breadwinner OF
either family. II the wives and mothers
OF our State would but realize that this
organization is absolutely and entirely
for their benefit, and that the husband,
son or brother who connects himself
with this grand brotherhood does so In
order that, IL the hand OF death be laid
upon him, those depending upon him
will GOT be thrown upon the charity OF
the cold world, but will DO protected by
living chain OF fraternal brotherhood,
whose every thought will DC to advance
their interests and welfare.
Reliance Lodge No. IS, with Bros.
LANCE, Braddfass and Robertson as q
committee on separate Jurisdiction, will
take an active part in the formation OF
a grand lodge. They also had several
candidates the past month.
Upchurch No 20, La Belle No. 2.

In the very near future the Commit

in order that the system OF orRaniza.

Every lodge In the State will be ably
represented.
The future looks bright for the A. O.
