THERE Is no Disgusting the fact that
the sentiment In favor OF larger use Of
silver in the currency of the country is
gaining in strength every day, and this
sentiment will certainly eliminate in a
law for the frse coinage OF silver or at
least one that will provide a larger place
in our currency than 1t possesses now.
Some OF the staunchest advocates Of
sound currency recognize the fact
that money is too dear to do business with

the constitutional amendment increasing
the attorney-general's salary from $500
to $4,000, which was voted on, 1891. The
array OF legal talent engaged on both

The agitation OF the immigration
problem may bear fruit in the not very
distahttuture. The plan Of a non partisan
commission to prepare comprehen sive
code Of laws restricting immigration was
Informally discussed at a gathering OF
prominent Republican representatives in
one OF the cloak rooms of the House, the
other day. The discussion took such an
interesting phase that about twenty
members were drawn into 1t. Ii was the
general expression OF such men as
Messrs. Reed. Dolliver and Cannon, that
the immigration question should be
wholly divorced from politics. In order
to accomplish this, II was suggested that
congress could create "a national commits
sion Of fifteen members. representing all
parties, so that the political effects OF
any restrictive code prepared would not
be borne by any one party. The COM
mission would consider the entire immi-
grafton question, changing and ampli-
flying old laws and suggesting new ones.
The code thus submitted would be passed
on by congress aud In this way broad
restrictive measures might be secured
without exciting bitter patty anImosity.
