New York, April 2.-The week opened on

is settled by return to the old bimetallism of
Europe Q51l to y very quickly, then we
must go in and agitate for the reduction OF

the crown are enormously better off than they
were before 1873, because f65 now will buy

before that. Therefore the salaries of servants
Of the crown Gas we express it,, as well as of
all county and municipal officials, must
be cut down 35 per cent All these
gentlemen are reveling in riches they are not
entitled to. They are paid salaries much
higher than they Dargained for, and they
have direct interest in delaying the reha-
bilitation of silver as the co-equal Of gold.
Beyond all question, public officials are op-
posed to any change which would increase
the prices of commodities, and the only way
to bring these drones to their senses is TO tell
them plainly their salaries shall be reduced
35 per cent. unless silver is quickly restored to
its old position as the co-equal Of gold. Let
the watchword be, then, the restoration of
silver to its own position as as an interna-
tional money metal or the reduction of all
official salaries Of public servants 35 per cent.
