The Bond Issue.


The question whether or not the Score
| tary Of the Treasury has the right to issue
| bonds does not check the bidding for
/ them. Already bids for more than the
amount of the proposed issue have been
received and it is thought that bids ag-
I gregating 500. 600, OOO will be made. AS a
matter of fact, nobody doubts that the
bonds would be paid promptly even if
there should be a decision of the courts to
the effect that the secretary exceeded
this authority in issuing them. A refusal
10 pay them would injure the credit Of
the government, and that congress would
never permit.
The necessity for the bond issue is gen.
orally recognized. The money will not be
wasted. 1t is needed to protect the credit
of the government. Those who are pro-
posing to question in the courts the secre-
tarys authority cannot possibly know as
much about the condition of the treasury
and the necessity for issuing bonds as the
secretary does nor are they as well
posted in respect to the authority by
which he proposes to issue them as he is.
The knights of Labor in their applica
tion for an Injunction to restrain the Sc
cretary from issuing bonds will have to
show that there are no conditions which
justify the issuing of them. 1t is doubtful
if they can do so. The secretary says such
conditions do exist, and as he has given
the matter much serious thought, he will
no doubt be able to show that they do
should he be required to do so.
A .E -
whether he has authority to use the gold
he will receive for the bonds in paying
the current expenses of the government.
1t is contended with good deal of force
that he has not-that he can use it only
for the redemption of greenbacks. His
purpose is to use it TO strengthen the gold
reserve, which is now impaired to the ex-
tent of more than $50, 600, but he i'll
tends, no doubt, to draw upon the gold re
serve if it becomes necessary to do so.
He has been drawing upon that reserve
for several months, and he will continue
to do so, in all probability, until the reve-
nues are sufficient to meet the govern
ment's expenses.
The secretary is not waiting for the
questions that have been raised in connec-
ton with the bond issue to be settled before
preparing the bonds. He is satisfied that
the course he is pursuing is the right one,
and that it cannot be successfully at
tackled. The plates for the bonds are
being engraved, and the bonds will be
ready for subscribers for them within two
weeks. There is not much time, there
fore, for the opponents of bond issue to
test the soundness of the reasons upon
which they base their opposition.

Washington, Jan. 23.-Representative
McCreary, chairman of the House com
mittee on foreign affairs. has prepared
and to-day introduced in the House a
resolution defining the attitude of con-
gress towards Hawaii. The resol ution
was referred to the committee on foreign
affairs and will receive consideration
at Thursdays meeting. Mr.. McCreary
says that the resolution represents the
sentiments of the nine democratic mem
bers of the committee, and he expects it
will be reported to the House and form
the basis of the discussion which will be-
gin Immediately after the disposition of
the tariff bill
The text of the resolution is as follows:
!. Resolved, That It is the sense Of this
House that the action of the United States
minister in employing United states naval
forces, and IN illegally overthrowing the con
stIutlonal government OF the Hawaiian
Islands in January, 1898, and In
setting up in its place provisional
government not republican in form.
and In opposition to the will of the majority
OF the people. was contrary to the traditions

A Boston newspaper, referring to the
fact that Mr.. Andrew D. White, ex-presi-

button to the political gossip of the times:
"Mr. White has long been friend and
admirer of Cleveland and presumably the
feeling is reciprocated. 1t is said that
when Mr.. White took the republican
stump in the last New York gubernatorial
contest, he stipulated that nothing was to
be said by him against the then ex-presi-

An interesting legal fight is going on in
Pennsylvania court-interesting not so
much on account of the people or the
money involved as because the suit turns
on the meaning of the word between. &"
The will of Mrs. Ihric directed that the
residue of her estate should be divided
between the grandchildren of my hus-
band and the children of f. r. Poree.,'
There are fifteen of the grandchildren, and
four Of the Poree children. The grand
children contend that the will directs
that the residue of the estate be divided
among all the heirs named, share and
share alike. The Poree children hold
that the will says the estate shall be di-
vided in half and the halves apportioned
between the two sets of heirs. On the
side of the grandchildren it is argued that
in common usage between" is applied with
relation to any number; on the other
side it is argued that between" can be
applied only with relation to two; that
when the will names two sets of heirs
and says'the estate shall be divided "be-
tween" those heirs, it means it shall be
divided into two equal parts, one half to
be set apart to each set of heirs before
the individual apportionment is made.
The estate amounts to about $4,000 If
between means what the Poree chill
dren say it does, they will get some 5000
EACH if it means what the grandchildren
say it does, the Forces will get about
$1,000 each. The incidentpointedly illus
trates the value of even the commonest
words.

Within the Law and His Duty.
From the Philadelphia Ledger dndA


Some of the solons of congress are deliver
ing themselves of elaborate opinions that
the Secretary of the Treasury while he may
have the power to sell bonds to restore the
depleted gold reserve. may not use the money
he thus receives for the purpose of defraying
the ordinary expenses of government Mr..
Carlisle is confronted by condition not a
theory, to use the language employed by
President Cleveland on an Important occa-
sion. The gold reserve is seriously invaded
and the governments income is monthly
falling behind its expenditures He has
asked congress to give him specific authority
TO sell bonds both TO replenish the reserve
and meet the deficiencies, but congress is re-
luctant TO act on his suggestion. Therefore.
acting upon his conception Of his duty at
trying period, he decides that the country S
credit must be sustained. He issues the
bonds under the authority OF law to replenish
the reserve, and If that reserve should be
again invaded by the failure OF revenues to
meet expenses it will be again his duty to re-
plenish II, unless congress should see lit to
come to his relief by some new enactment.

aged By a Big Wave.

New York, Jan. 23-The steamer Nor
MAMMA, which sailed last Thursday for

deck house, flooding the cabins, etc. AS

It's funny about Senators Teller and
Wolcott, of Colorado. A few days ago
they sent joint telegram to the lower
branch of the Colorado legislature
saying: prosperity will return to
US if we do nothing to drive
it away, and we believe a favorable
solution of the silver question will be
found eventually. Any prolonged or con-
tinued session of the assembly would, in
our opinion, be most unwise and would
only result in injury to Colorado" No
longer ago than September and October
the people of the country were sending
similar messages to Teller and Wolcott in
the Senate, yet Teller and Wolcott were
prolonging and continuing the silver
fight in congress-the fight that Waite is
waging in the legislature-to the injury
of the business of the country. And as
between their demeauor while fighting,
Waite has conducted himself in the more
mannish manner-Waite "cussed" and
