COINAGE TOLL.

The seigniorage SO frequently al
luded to In the vetoed Bland silver
bill, is, as defined by Webster, "some-
thing Gained or taken by virtue OF
sovereign prerogative; specifically a
certain toll or deduction on bullion
brought to mint to be coined. 1t
was designed originally to defray the
expense Of coinage but afterward it
was made branch Of royal revenue.
This deduction or seigniorage is still
made, with more or less notifications,
at governmental mints."
In this connection J. S. Mill says
If the Government throws the ex-
pense of coinage upon the holder,
which is called "levying seignior.
age," the coin will rise to the extent of
the seigniorage above The value Of the
bullion"
According to our own definition of
this money-making business, we are
inclined to think our silver bullion
men want too much for too little, and
they want as little bullion as possible
taken to make the dollar, no matter as
to the international worth or respecta-
bllity of such dollar.

REPRESENTATIVE AND C0NSTIT-
UENT.

Filjbustering, so common with our
statesmen these days, is we believe as
frequently resorted to in order to get a
chance to talk as with the hope of de
feating a measure. One half the mum
Der of Representatives and Senators
would serve us just as well, if not bet
ter. But the reduction of numbers be-
ing with themselves they had rather
enlarge the Capitol than diminish the
numbers of Representatives by doub-
ling ratio or apportionment Of consti
tuents to the Representative. But the
fact is the real work of Congress is
confined 10 comparatively few, while
the speakers Of any note or force are
still less. Leave to print by the yard
they all can get. but the right of the
floor to speak is confined to compal-
atively few. In their anxiety to appear
well to their deluded constituents their
printed remarks Frequently gotteu up
by experts who tell them what to say
and how to say it) are sent home and
scattered broadcast, just as If the
speech had actually been delivered
upon the floor of the House, and just
as if the hearty applause, frequently
given the speaker, had actually been
given. Its funny how they do it, but
they do.

The countcrfeiter seems equal to
the occasion whether our current
money be paper or coin. Hitherto it
has been claimed by our genuine mon
ey makers that the silk fibre paper up.
on which the genuine notes are print
ed is too much for the successful
imitation of the most artistic counter
feiter. Now they have discovered
their mistake about this. For several
counterfeit 81 silver certificates, pnnt-
ed on silk fibre paper of fully as good
quality as that used by the Govern
ment, have been discovered, after hav-
ing been rather extensively circulated
about Mahanoy City and elsewhere in
Schuylkill County.

SENATOR HILLS QUORUM.

Whatever else may be said of Sena-
tor Hill, of New York, it will not be
charged that he is not as bold and ag.
gressive as any one need be who hopes
to lead or mislead a party, or rather a
wing of it. But somehow his dignifed
Senatorial colleagues are a little too
shy of him and discrete to follow
blindly where he would lead. In
other words, they seem to have weigh
ed him, and sized him up as considera
bly, more of the politician than states
man. The prestige that his geograph,
ical location gives him, among the
richest and most influential men of
the country, is the principal prestige
he relies on for all that he hopes to &C
complish in the interest of Senator
Hill of the Empire State. 1t is moth
ing new for Senator Of this proud
and influential State to dictate policy
or terms to the President Of the Uni
ted States. These proud Senators
have not altogether succeeded in the
past, whatever may be the outcome Of
Senator Hills exploit as an envious
opponent of the Chief Executive.
The other more harmonious Sena
tors seem to doubt Mr.. Hills sincerity
when he suggests changes of rules in
the Senate which ne claims would
expedite business. They seem to fear
that his plan might result in some
thing worse than they now have in the
shape of rules governing debate. Ac
cording(y they prefer to bear the ills
they have rather than fly to those they
know not of, and especially under the
guidance of Senator Hill OF the En-
pire State.
His amendments to The rules, it is
said, are identical TO those he offered
once or twice before and which failed
for want of approval of the committee
to which they were referred They
were returned, after investigation of
their SO called merits as time makers,
along with Senatorial report that it
would be inexpedient to make any
change OF rules at that time. The
promised report in full which was to
have been made on the proposition OF
Senator Hill is yet to be heard from
1t seems. Even Senators who are
anxious that the tariff measure shall
be gotten out of the way do not ap-
pear to favor Mr.. Hills proposition.
Whether it is the measure or the man
that they distrust most, is a question
solved in the mind of the writer what
ever others think about the brilliancy
of his leadership Of the plutocratic
wing of Democracy.

REFORMATION.

Some reformations reform while
others don't begin to. Take our
amended Baker Ballot reformation,
for instance. After trial it is receiving
quite as much condemnation as praise.
While secret ballot seems to be the
objective point-and worthy indeed
is all honest effort io this direction
the undeniable fact is that anybody
can screw the whole top Oft of the
Baker ballot-box, examine the votes
and whole contents of the box, with
out touching lock or breaking seal,
and then by just screwing the top on
again no one but the Almighty can
possibly know anything about it. The
locks and seals are a mere pretence,
as they simply lock and seal the small
aperture through which the ballots are
put into the box.
Then the ambiguity of those Sec
tions of the law regarding the duty OF
the judges in making their returns
leaves this official in quandary as to
what he shall retain in the box and
what it is his duty to return to the
county seat as an essential part Of his
returns. Some judges in Luzerne
county were obliged to make two trips
to the county seat in order to straight
en- out their defective returns. And
in view of the fact that the judge was
only paid for his day at the polls, (his
mileage is about absorbed in the ex
pense of traveD his Improbable duties
as Judge Of election took all the pa
triotism he could muster to prevent
his swearing at the amended Baker
Ballot law and its various originators.

CHAIRMAN OF STATE DEMO-
CRATIC COMMITTEE.

Deputy Attorney General, James
A. Suanahan, of Mercer, was the
choice Of the assembled committee.
men at Harrisburg, on the 10 tn
instant. Mr. Stravahan succeeds J..
Marsha | Wright, of Allentown, as
chairman Of State Committee.
With headquarters at Harrisburg
the chairman will arrange for an ag-
gressive campaign this fall
His choice of secretary is Benjamin
NJ. Mead, of Harrisburg, who is well
acquainted with the duties of the
Office. Eighty one Of tie eighty seven
members answered to the roll call,
and but fourteen of the attendants
were substitutes.
What was lacking in enthusiasm
was made up in harmony at the meet
ing. Upon being escorted to the chair
Mr.. Stlanahan made little speech
in which he referred to the benefits
that will result to the nation from the
speedy passage of the Wilson bill by
Congress.
He spoke IN high terms of the ad-
ministration of President Cleveland,
and urges harmonious action on the
part of individuals IN the contest for
control of the State Offices to be filed
this fall. After some competition at
other points, a majority thought Har.
risburg the more desirable place in
which to hold the next meeting of the
committee. Harrisburg was according
ly chosen as the place for the next
meeting, and June 27 the time of the
meeting.
A motion was adopted instructing
the chairman to urge the Congressional
Democratic Committee to use its in.
fluence with Democratic members OF
Congress for speedy passage of a
tariff measure in harmony with the
platform upon which President Cleve-
land was elected the second time.
After disposing of some other bu.
siness Of minor Importance the com
mittee adjourned.

ate for State Senator, is nominated by

Depew for President.

ST. LOUIS, April IS -Chauncey M.
Depew. who is in this city, announces
himself a candidate for President OF
the United States. Mr.. Depew, ac-
companied by Cornelius Vanderbilt
and M. L. Ingall, president of the Big
-Four Railroad, reached here last
night on tour Of inspection of the
Vanderbilt properties. Speaking of the
political questions now interesting the
public mind, Mr.. D2pew said:
Hills recent speech on the tariff
question undoubtedly voiced the un.
animous sentiment of New York, with
the possible exceptions of a very in
significant contingent Of Democrats
of that State. 1t is mistake to sup.
pose that Hill was forced into vigorous
opposition Of the income tax by the
wealthy classes of New York. The
other fellows the fellows without a
visible income are the ones responsible
for Hills attitude towards the income
tax proposition"

THE BREOKINRIDGE AND P.L-
LARD CASE,

On the 18th inst. the most widely
read breach Of promise suit of our
day, that between Madeline Pollard
and Co onel Breckenridge, terminated
in favor of Miss Pollard, who was
given $4,000 as compensation. The
jury took but one hour to deliberate
upon all that was said pro and con
during a period covering something
over FIVE weeks, and in which there
was an apparent sup:radity of mud.
throwing, besides some shocking cor
rect statements from both about tales
of depravi'y quite characteristic Of the
reckless in Washington society. If
Breckenridge did not betray Madeline,
the jury found that he at least deceiv,
ed her $4,000 worth and we agree
with the jury.
Washington papers report that, as
usual in such cases in Washington,
the court room was densely crowded.
We know that if there is anything
calculated to crowd Washington
courtroom, it is breach of promise
case in which some ugly facts have
come to the surface, and we must ad-
nit that few Of this kind have got
there in this particular case. They
did not al reach the surface through
coercion either. 1t is not our purpose
to harrass the finer sensibilites of the
readers of THE COLUMBIAN by attempt
ing to wade through all that this tlial
brought forth. But being engaged by
our gentlemanly employer to fill space,
our aim shall be to try to fill it with
something of interest to the fastidi.
GUS readers of IHE COLUMBIAN.
When the printers want copy the
editor must either write or Clip some
thing. And unless the editor is blest
with fruitful imagination he must
resort to all sorts of stuff to fill up
when he don't want to clip. Now, if
you will permit US to get little away
from our topic, we will say in regard
to clipping the news instead Of writing
it, that it makes a difference with
some folks who have the subscrip tion
to pay You see, the one is easy and
the other hard, and the subscriber
generally knows the difference. He
thinks he has right to see the in
dlviduality of the editor, whether it be
for the better or for the worse.
Now to return to our subject, and
we admit to be rather the worse,
we will only say in conclusion that re-
port has 1t that the Representative of
Kentucky people, Colonel Breckin-
ridge, began to get nervous when the
jury went out, and when they came in
and gave their solemn verdict he felt
so disappointed apparently that he
began to inquire about a new trial.
In fact his lawyer stood up and gave
notice that new trial would be ask
ed for. Judge Bradley earnestly thank
ed the jury and adjourned the court.
The $4,000 awarded Madeline will
answer for pin money for some little
time with economy.

A Washington correspondent re,
ports Senator PETER as saving of the
Coxey contingent to the high tariff
boom, that it Is al piece of foolish
ness and childishness. Il have ad-
vised against it from the start" he con-
tinued "and have written letters
against it, and In speeches made
against it | have endeavored to show
that no object could be attained by
any such haphazard movement as
this F"
1t is no spontaneous uprising or
substantial growth like the farmers
Alliance, for instance. Coxey, it seems
in spite of his professed santiication
and alarming prophecies about the
second coming of Christ, is horse
trader and gambler to start with and
if SO, he is certainly not the man to
exert much influence, nor is he able
to make respectable high tariff boom.

How to secure quorum seems to
be puzzlipg question with the pres.
ent Congress. If it were not possible
for the truants to easily make up all
loss, perhaps it would be well to dock
them for lost time during business
hours. The only time that the sover-
eign power can make suggestion to
the executive power that counts for
anything is when he casts his vote.

We never could quite solve the eu-
phonious term "weal or woe" until
Coxey helped us out by calling his
escort and body-guard the "Com-
mon veal" We know all about such
"weal as Coxey has. 1t is entirely
too common to suit us individually.
