The Mutual Arrangement Failed.


MINNEAPOLIS, MINI. Aug. 90
The inquest over the remains OF
Mrs. T. o. Hawkins,of whose death
her sister, Mrs. Lora Perkins,
stands accused, has begun. The
most important testimony ELECTED
was that OF DR.. WI. Bell, who at
tended Mrs. Hawkins after the fatal
fire. The state refuses absolutely
to say what the evidence against
the imprisoned woman is, but 1t Is
known she is charged with i'm
:personating her sister in obtaining
insurance policies and with forging
her sisters signature to documents.
1t is also suspected the two women
were not really sisters. Mrs Per-
kins was interviewed this morning
and told a romantic story Of their
lives. She asserts her entire in
nocence and declares they both
took life insurai Thnr the benefit
Of each other, aizh her policy
has not yet been H., Ssd. She was
soliciting for the E,ecurity Mutual
Life, of New York, and they took
the insurance to Save commission
and were to assign the policies to
each other, ina recorded document.

them over and again TO depIete our gold re-
serve faith in their reliability was shaken.
The truth is that paper currency must rep
resent money that has commercial value,
and when redeemed in that money should
not be reissued. Every time a legal-tender
or Treasury note was redeemed in gold aud
then reissued it offered opportunity for specu
lation and became a menace TO our gold
reserve. They we're government obligations
that must be redeemed in standard money.
and this repeated reissue and redemption in
gold made the government raiding place
for gold gamblers.
The best thing Congress could do would be
to withdraw from circulation all legal tender
and Treasury notes. Let banks furnish
promises to pay and relieve the government
of that responsibility. II is well for Congress
TO authorize the issue OF paper substitutes
for gold and silver for the convenience ofthe
public, but we want no more greenbac&s or
faith-cure money
The Washington times., 1895-02-11
A BAD PRECEDENT.

The appropriation made by the Senate
Saturday TO begin the work of laying cable
10 Hawaii was undoubtedly the first step to-
ward annexation. The Republican branch OF
Congress has always favored that proposition.
and were it not for President Cleveland the
next Congress would make Hawaii a part of
the United States.
An appropriation TO establish n govern
ment line OF telegraph for the aceommoda-
ton Of the American public would be much
more sensible than the expenditure of S.
900 to lay a cable TO Hawaii. Except for
the convenience of a coaling station that
island would be Of no service 10 the United
States. and annexation would add nothing to
our revenues. We already have a CONNER
eial treaty that gives US practical control of
the Hawaiian sugar product and in return
we supply the Hawaiian markets.
On the other hand annexation and the
maintenance of a submarine cable would be a
constant source Of expense. The building of
fortilcations and the establishing of mill
tary and naval station would involve large
outlay Of money. and the commercial use of
the cable would go but little way toward pay
ing its expenses.
Aside from the jingo outcry there has been
nothing in the entire Hawaiian controversy
that calls for the serious consideration of
Congress. President Cleveland's unfortunate
espousal of the deposed Queens cause first
brought the question before the public. The
present Hawaiian government has shown
ample ability to take care ofitself and neither
asks nor desires our assistance Therefore
the United States should let it alone.
The precedent established by the laying of
the cable is likely to result in the too lavish
use of public money in the future. 1t opens
the way for all kinds OF iobbing schemes to
bolster up similar enterprises and should not
be Endorsed by Congress. If there is any
public money to appropriate let it be used in
the Improvement OF public works that will
give employment to idle working people.
