President Turner. of the West Virginia
University, resigned short while ago.
The board of regents of the university

the election of successor to Mr.. Turner.
1t is understood the place is being held
open for Congressman William L. Wilson,
in case he should decide not to accept a
denomination for congress, or accepting.
should fail of denomination. Mr.. Will
son was president of the university before
his election to congress, and the regents
are desirious of having him back again.
His former connection with this institu-
tion led some of his political opponents to
refer to him as Prof " Wilson, and his
tariff bill as the "school teachers bill, 3"
during the time the Wilson bill was
before the House. The terms were in
tended as ridicule; but there was moth
ing ridiculous about the man or the bill,
as he demonstrated by his scholarly and
logical speeches on the measure, and the
attempts to ridicule the profession of
teaching and the tariff reformer quietly
ceased.

A dispatch dated at Waycross, was sent
north a few days ago, in which it was
stated that a negro had been skinned
alive in Pierce county for commit
ting a horrible crime, his victim
being young girl. The republican
papers are making a good deal of this
story. The New York Press, commenting
on it, says Gov. Northen, only a
few weeks ago, was giving reasons why
desirable immigrants should settle in
Georgia, and concludes as follows "The
south will have to learn some lessons in
humanity before il can fairly invite i'm
migrants who now prefer the north. D."
There is good reason for thinking the
story fake. The MORNING NEWS cor

gold mining, has taken boom. The
Wilmington Messenger reports much &C

find is reported to have been made re
Gently in Nash county, at the Edwards
mines. In every state in which there are
known gold deposits, the mining opera
tons have been considerably enlarged
since the repeal of the silver purchase
law. The output Of gold from the mines of
the United States at the end of 1894 will
probably be much greater than for
number of years. if not greater than ever
before. In Colorado gold mining has
almost entirely displaced silver mining.

fcation

with clauses protecting the people in
this particular, and discriminating be-
tween the regular professional and the
practitioner who lays no claim to
diploma, appears to be a great i'm
provement on the present statute.
There is one consideration, however,
which we think ought to be thoroughly
canvassed; it is the propriety of Ieav-
ing the matter of medical boards to
municipal regulation in the several
cities, or to the county courts in the
different counties.
It locke unjust and unnecessary to
make professional or non-profession-
al doctor come from the extreme north
or the extreme south of this large ter
ritory to this city, to pass an examina-
ton or receive a certificate If each
lefty or county were left TO regulate
this matter, subject to general pro-
visions of law something similar to
thse of the bill to which we
have referred, it would appear
to be more consistent with the
theory of local government and
more just to the parties concerned.
1t seems necessary that some laws
should be in force to protect the pub
lie against charlatans and quacks. 1t

ticing physician is a licensed doctor.

the knowledge of the schools to stand
as authorized by competent board
iof examiners, or only an administered
of medicines which experience has
taught him are efiicacious, and with
no learning sufficient to occupy the po-
sition of the first named class.
And it appears equally clear that the
public must not be debarred from Sc
curing the services of persons upon
whom they place the greatest reliance,
no matter of what school or if they
belong to no school at all. So that
people are not deceived into the belief
that an uhlearned and presumptuous
quack is a skilled and regular physic-
ian, they ought not to be deprived of
their liberty to employ whom they
choose in times Of sickness and dis
tress.
This is a very important matter and
the Legislature ought to consider it on
its merits without regard to the claims
on any side which are founded in sell
fshness, or which would lead to the
public injury. TO placate any faction
should not be controlling motive. The
public welfare is to be regarded as
paramount

LAWFUL MONEY.

The difference between silver and
silver certificates, is made clear in
The decision Of the Attorney General,
in reply to an inquiry made by the
Secretary of the Treasury. The Attor-
ney General says: Silver certificates
are just what they purport to be on
their face and by their terms; that is,
they attest the fact that the United
States has on deposit so many silver
dollars, which will be paid to the hold
er upon the presentation and surren-
der of such certificates. If they can
be regarded as money at all it is
only because the United States agrees
to receive them for customs, taxes,
and all public dues. and only to that
extent and for those specific purposes. .
The Attorney General says further
they are not lawful money = in the
meaning of the act of Congress in
reference to national bank currency
and treasury notes. passed July H.
1892 Silver and gold coins are the
lawful money of the United States.
They are neither of them redeemable
in any thing else
There is the great distinction be-
tween them and paper notes which
pass for money. The real money be
hind silver certificates is the silver dol
lars deposited with the Treasury, for
which the silver certificates are issued
as a convenience. They are receivable
for customs, duties and dues of diff
ferent kinds, notwithstanding the de-
NAL of an uniformed contemporary
but this is because they are backed by
the real money of which they are the
token
Silver dollars are as good as god
dollars as money. They may not be
as convenient. but that is not the ques-
ton. The laws of the United states
pronounce them money. receivable for
all debts, public and private, unless
differently specified in a contract. If
a contract is made for the payment OF
a debt in gold, that must hold good.
Congress could not make it any diff
fenert. The constitution provides that
the validity of contracts must not be
impaired, and it is a righteous pro-
vision and fundamental principle in
business relations.
1t would be the same if a contract
We're made to pay in wheat, or pork,
or any commodity at a given rate.
A special contract for payment in gold
does not detract from the position of
silver as money in all respects outside
of that contract Under the law of
1873, which it is said ''demonetized'
silver, it was made legal tender to
the extent of five dollars only. But the
law of 1873 restored the legal tender
quality of the silver dollar; the law Of
1890 continued it, and the repeal act of
1892, about which so much misrepre-
sentation has been made, has not dis
turbed that quality The silver dollar
therefore, is lawful money of the Unit
ed States today, in law and in prac-
tice, and denials of that patent fact
are as useless as they are untrue

An IMPORTANT MATTER.

The Medical law has been dis

ferent opinions have been expressed
concerning 1t. A great many people

a new law entirely, which viii be

The best Judgment of the various
states in the union appears to be in
favor of a law regulating the practice

incompetent persons who might en-
danger health and life. AT the same
time it is conceded that such restric-
TORS as the law imposes should not

i'm the formation and support OF the pro-
DIVISIONAL government. The following
dispatch, received by that paper. dated
Honolulu, February 10, and San Fran
cisco, February %. shows that all is
not lovely in Honolulu:
There has been no open rupture be-
tween the rival political organizations
since the last mail, a week ago, but ILL
feeling is growing rapidly. The gov
iernment, which has been carried on
| for more than a year by small party,
and which has filled all vacancies
from among its own members has
aroused such hostility that a change
must be made in the way of larger
representation or there will be so seri-
Gus detection that its power cannot
be maintained.
1t is also Stated that Dole admits
the provisional government has out
lived its usefulness, and is engaged in
getting up a constitution for the Isl
ands. Correspondence to the New
York Sun discloses something of the
mature of that instrument. From this
lit appears there is certain to be a de-
Inial of universal suffrage in the cleo
ton of"the members of the upper
house and of the general government"
This may not seem republican, says
the correspondent gravely, but then
we ought to remember, he adds, that
"a republic in the full accepta ton of
the term is no more practicable in Ha-
waii than it is in India
That is a peculiar kind of 'repub-
lic' for Americans to go wild about.
There is nothing like a republic in the
|so-called provisional government, as
The Herald has shown many times It
looks as though there was no likeh-
hood of such a government for Hawaii
in the future. A republic in which the
majority of the governed are denied a
voice in the affairs of the government
is new brand of that political article.
1t appears, too. from the latest re-
ports, that there are host of the
place-seeking class in Honolulu, and
great ruction is in progress over the
Offices. An organization called the
American League has been effected.

ranks are swelled by every incoming

The Chinese, japanese and Portu-
'guese elements. too. are factors in the
sum of Hawaii affairs and form a
troublesome problem for the alleged
government of the Islands. 1t is evil
dent that another change must soon
come to the country of the Kanakas,
but whether it will be in the shape of
an uprising of the natives, or sort of
semi-constitutionaI government for the
benefit of the American population.
does not yet appear. But that the cur
tain will soon ring down OH the pro-
visional puppet-show is one of the
probabilities of Hawaiian politics.

those Of the secretary and treasurer.
Arrests have been made of two or
three men who were concerned in al
