A SUPPRESSED DISPATCH.

In transmitting to Congress his first
special message on the Hawaiian question
President Cleveland withheld dispatch No.
from Minister Willis. 1t matters little
what poor excuse was given for keeping
back this i'm mpOrtant document; the true
reason for suppressing it is afforded by the
statements it contains. Even to Cleve-
an DIS dull obstinacy and stoid SELF
conceit these revelations by Willis must
have been a rude shock. To any nor
mally constituted intelligence they must
have carried conviction that the admins
tration's scheme Of restoration was a grave
blunder. At last and reluctantly, seeing
that he could no longer hope to gain any,
thing by concealment, the President trans
mitted this dispatch No. to Congress.
In this communication Minister Willis
gives the result of his interview with the
deposed Queen, setting forth her refusal
to Issue proclamation of amnesty, and
also her savage desire to have the mem bers
of the Provisional Government beheaded
In the event of her restoration. Willis
proceeds to say: 81 am satisfied that there
VIII be concerted movement, in the event
of the restoration, for the overthrow of
the constitution o. 1887, which would mean
the absolute dominion of the Queen"
This weighty declaration amounts to a
confession by Minister Willis of the folly
of the administrations plan of restora-
tion. For to any friend of civilization the
forecast of such a result must imply con.
demnation OF any effort to bring it about.
In first submitting the Hawaiian matter
to 1.-The larger discretion" of Congress Mr..
Cleveland transmitted a mass Of unimpor-
tant correspondence. but retained the i'm
portant dispatch No. for reasons that are
now evident. He kept it back because its
publication would have stultifed his mes
sage favoring restoration, and because il
would have cemented in Hawaii as we'll as
in this country enlightened public senti-
ment In opposition to the dethroned
Queen IL this he broke faith with Con-
gress, for in his general message of De-
cember be had promised to transmit to
that body full information necessary to a
complete understanding of the situation
in Hawaii. Yet he withheld the most i'm
portant information in his possession.
Out of the mouth of its own Minister is

HORNBLOWER GOES.

Corporation Lawyer Horn blower goes
and does not 60. He goes back to his law
ofnce and, of course, does not go 10 the
Supreme Bench. The rejection of this
man is mainly due to Senator Hill. It was
pretty well known that the Republicans
were not a unit for his rejection and if
they had been their votes alone would not
have defeated him. The motive of Sepa-
tor Hin In opposing a nominee of the
President was for the purpose of disci-
pline. Senator Hill. like Conkling in his
day. thinks Senator should be consulted
in the selection of office holders from his
State. The President apparently regard s
executive patronage as his perqutsite and
does not propose to be dictated to as to its
distribution. Whether the debate in the
executive session threw any light upon the
motive which led to the selection of Horn
blower by President Cleveland does not
yetappear. Yet this is the most interesting
part of the affair. One nomination Nigh
have been attributed to personal liking
for the corporation lawyer. but the second
must have had a stronger basis to rest
upon. When Congress adjourned without
taking action On the omination it con-
yeyed to the President distinct intima-
alton that Horn blower was not in the
Senate's opinion the man for the place.
The vacancy had existed for some time
and public business was delayed thereby.
Still the Senate preferred a vacancy to
Hornblower. Why, then, did Cleveland
insist upon vote which was quite likely
to be adverse TO his nominee? Secrets of
this nature usually leak out in time.

THE SILVER IN THE TREASURY

Secretary Carlisle appeals to Congress
to give him new power to issue bonds
without making mention Of the fact that
there is silver bullion enough in the vaults
of the treasury to provide for all the de-
fcieDcies likely to exist. The question is
whether the treasury shall use the bullion
it has purchased, or borrow gold and let
the. silver lie idle. Mr. Carlisle would
perhaps say that the coinage of the idle
silver would endanger the gold standard
Mr.. Cleveland has set up. If 1t will. it is
because the gold standard is on such a.
fragile basis that every hostile breath en-
dangers it. There are now, including sill
yer, something like SIS in circulation for
one of gold in the treasury. 1t is not ad-
mitted, however. that the coinage of the
silver in the treasury vaults would not
serve to protect the gold standard.
France and Germany pay out silver at
the option of the banks. The silver thew
pay out circulates at parity with gold as
our silver does. and thus serves to render
the gold standard secure. The United
States has placed Itself in the untenable
position Of extending to the creditors the
choice of the kind OF money in which their
claims shall be paid. There is no law for
this aud never has been. The Bland
Allison act of 1873 made the silver dollar a
legal tender. and the legal tender func-
tions have never been taken from il by act
of Congress. The silver In the treasury
may be coined into standard dollars and
used for every purpose for which gold
ollars may be used, with the single ex-
ception Of exchange for gold certificates.
The vote on the Carlisle proposition will
come nearer to test of the sense of Con-
gress on the question of monometa llism
than any that has yet been taken. If an
issue of bonds is authorized it will be

gress that the silver it has purchased is a

METHODS AND RESULTS.

An American newspaper woman living
in London is reported as advertising for a
titled chaperon, who, for a consideration.
could introduce the advertiser into the
"smart set" The newspaper woman, of
course, represented herself as a young
lady Of fortune and left herself open to
the inference that she was anxious to ex-
change part of the fortune for a title.
According to the English standard OF right
and wrong there would have been no
harm in this exchange If the advertiser
had had the fortune. But as she had
nothing but herself her method of probing
the rottenness of English high life was
severely condemned. The newspaper
woman discovered, however. that if she
had had the fortune she was presumed to
have and had been willing to part with it
for so flimsy consideration as title
