The Bland seignlorage BILL which pass
ed the senate a few days ago and now
awaits the presidents signature, provides
that 5o5, 10000 worth OF the silver bull
ion in the treasury shall be coined and
the money used 10 meet public eXpend-
lures. This $55, 10000 worth CT bullion
is called seignlorage because it represents
the difference between the coinage value
and the market value Of the whole bulk
Of bullion. The value provides, more
over, that before this called seigniorage
is coined the secretary of the treasury
may issue silver certificates to the full
amount oi it, to be redeemed with the
silver dollars when coined; and not only
SO, but the secretary may, IN his discre-
tion il the needs Of the treasury demand
it, issue silver certificates in excess Of
coinage, provided that this excess snail
not exceed the amount of the seignioraga
as herein authorized to be coined =
That is to say, he may immediately upon
the passage OF tais bill issue not only $780,
$4,000 OF silver certificates. the amount
OF the so-called selgniorage OF bullion,
but may put out twice this amount
Sll03l2,OOO OF certificates, to be redeem
ed IN silver dollars.

twice as much as we harvested. In 1909
We succeeded in reducing the difference

into the likeness of perfect freetrade

to nearly all, the wage-earners and wage
payers of the country. All these VIII

For it is to be kept in mind that if the
bill passes. the republican congress elect

has power to veto the repeating law.
Not untll a republican congress and a
