DUTIES ON SILVER.

A correspondent asks the following:
Editor Call: Do you think it will be good
policy for the coming Republican Congress to
support tariff on silver?
a duty on silver would serve no good
purpose unless Congress should enact an
unlimited silver-coinage law. U4der our
present laws the home supply is more
than equal to the demand. Placing duties
Oh foreign silver would therefore have no
effect on the home price. One proposed
solution of The silver problem is the uu-
limited coinage of American silver and
prohibitlry duties on foreign silver. 1t is
assumed that the United States could
maintain at parity with gold all its home
product Of silver by many who admit that
unlimited coinage OF silver without such
prohibition would establish the single sill
yer standard. The opening of our mints
20 silver would bring whatever amount of
silver may be in the market at bullion
prices to this country. No close estimate
can be made of the amount of free silver
that would seek our market should our
minis be open to unlimited coinage. 1t 10
assumed that European nations which
maintain vast amounts of silver at par
with gold would not sell their silver at ess
than its face value. But there seems to
be enough free silver ready for any market
that offers at present bullion prices to
check any movement to advance the price

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

Japan has 80, 900 miles of telegraph lines.
including several subterranean cables.
The value of this system in war can
hardly be over-estimated. At the chief
city of Japan the situation at the front is
better understood than at the front itself,
since dispatches from all points reach the
capital, while the several army corps often
receive news of each other from the CEN
trail city. The Chinese have no telegraph
system and no railroads. One part OF the
army does not know what another part is
doing, nor where 1t is located. At Picking
they know little more than that war is
in progress and that their armies are uni
formly beaten. There may be something
to be said in favor of the old way OF doing
things If all nations would cling to the old
way. An ISOLATED people can indulge in
the luxury of following their hereditary
Instincts. but when one people move

MUST ANSWER.

The Supreme Court has decided that
Louis Cohen, charged with having as
sisted to stuff the registration list, must
answer the questions be declined TO answer
In Judge Wallace'S court. Cohen declined
TO answer on the ground that an answer
would tend to incriminate him. Judge
Wallace informed tie witness that the
purity of election law protected him from
criminal prosecution, but the witness per-
sisted in his refusal to answer. The Su-
preme Court decision sustaining Judge
Wallace will have good effect. There
has been a tendency to a free construction
Of the provisions Of the State constitution
which provides that mo person shall be
compelled in any criminal case to be
a witness against himself" This brief
and positive inhibition has been con-
strued by lawyers 10 relieve witness
from all obligations to give testimony in
any case which iH his opinion may tend to
incrminate him should he subsequently
be brought to trial. Yet he cannot in point
of fact give testimony against himself in
case to which he is not party. As a wit
ness he may furnish information which
might be used against him in a case there
after TO be Instituted. ii the purity of cleo
ton act did not provide against such use
Of testimony.
Mauilestly the good of society would
deny the right OF witness To be the Judge
of testimony which might tend to incrimi-
nate him. A witness could set up that
excuse whenever called to testify to any
facts in a criminal case of which he had
personal knowledge. he might make the
constitutional proviso screen to protect
persons charged with a crime whom he
knew to be guilty. Permitting the witness
to be the judge of what testimony would
tend to incriminate him would compel the
prosecution to rely entirely upon wit
nesses friendly to the prosecution for con-
Vlction in any criminal case. The decisioH
clears the judicial atmosphere to an ex-
tent 1t makes it possible to continue the
prosecution against the suffers with a
reasonable chance of getting a the facts.
1t does not reconstruct treacherOus men,
cries, but 1t opens the prison doors to wit
nesses who may refuse to tell what they
know. If this variety of perjury cannot
be prevented, il can at least be made to
bear the moral oblnQuy that is visited
upon other classes of crime. Perjury is
perjury, whether man swears TO false
statement or swears that he does not re-

CANADA'S SEAL CATCH.

The total catch of British Columbia
sealers for the present year is g. 049. In
1898 it was 10000 and in 1892 $4,000. The
Paris regulations seem to be better adapted
to promote pelaglc sealing than any regula-
lions the sealers themselves could devise.
The result is due in part TO the negligence
of the British Government in enforcing the
regulations agreed upon at Paris.
The su Dmission of the Boring Sea case
to arbitration has sometimes been spoken
of as a harbinger OF a time when all
national disputes shall be submitted to
disinterested parties, with an obligation
resting upon the principals 10 abide by The
verdict. But to bring arbitration into
favor degree of wisdom and a fair OBJ
seryance of the equities should be mani
fest in such adjudications. In the Boring
Sea casa the United States has been
chiseled out of rights which Russia has
maintained at the point of the hayouet.
The United States. with precisely the
same rights in one half of the Boring Sea
that Russia has In the other, has prac-
ticaily handed over the seal-catchng III
dustry to Canada, under cover of a pomp-
Gus but ignorant board of ar biters. The
American company which bargained for
exclusive rights in Boring Sea is limited to
catch of 1900 year. while the poachers
get off with $4,000. The valhe of the seal
fishery is onslderable, but the money part
of the case is not the most important.
The nation has been humiliated by its un-
willingness to defend its rights by force OF
arms and its inability to defend them in
any other way. The chances are that the
next case that comes up for arbitration
will not be arbltrated.

as to his vote in 1872, when Horace Greeley
