Tn. Commission and It's $4,000


The United States Senate yesterday
passed without amendment the House bill
appropriating 100000 to pay the expenses
of a commission to be appointed by the
President to ascertain the divisional line
between Venezuela and British Guiana
Congress Is standing by the President;
so are the State Legislatures and (above
alb so are the people. And this united
and determined front Of ours will do
more than anything else can to bring
England to her senses, and make her
count the cost of war. She ought to have
accepted our proposal for arbitration;
but, not having done so. in the event OF
the commission sustaining Venezuela's
position. she must renew diplomatic ne
gotiations-or be chargeable with the con-
sequences that may follow.
1t is doubtful II the commission will
find 1t necessary to visit Venezuela. In
a few weeks the warm season will begin
in that country. The commission may be
able to get all the information that 1t
wants in Washington, the Government
of Venezuela having offered to place at
its disposal copies Of all the maps and
documents that it possesses. However, this
and many other matters will undoubtedly
be left to the commission to decide for
Itself. What our country wants Is the
facts

The Richmond Dispatch has an excei-
lent editorial on the improperly OF teacn-
ers in the public schools receiving Christ
mas or other presents from their pupils
The Staunton indicator
Our article was intended more espe-
cialIy to meet the practice Of taking
I'D collections in public schools or from
public school children. In many cities
and States the laws positively prohibit all
such collections. and they are objection
able to the majority Of the people OF
Richmond. But in view Of the fact that
the custom has long obtained here. and
that arrangements have already been
made by the children to give many teach
ers presents. we do not propose to urge
any action on the part Of our School
Board or Legislature at this time; but II
would be well to have It understood that
after the approaching holidays are over
those who are In favor Of REFORM in
this respect will call the attention OF
the proper authorities to- the matter. ~

Paying cu.tom.-Dutie. In Gold.


During the war between the States
Congress passed law forbidding any
buying and selling of gold anywhere IN
the United States The members OF Con-
gress who passed this law saw that the
price of gold was going up day by day.
and supposed that they could put an emo
TO WaIl-street speculation In that metai
by forbidding anybody and everybody 10
deal in It, either in Wall street or else
where. But alas for the theorists OF
that day, the consequences Of the passage
Of the law in question was that gold
Jumped up so high as to alarm Congress
and induce that body to repeal the ob1ec-
tionable law. 1t did not remain on the
statute-book a week., Acts Of Congress
are powerless In the presence Of the laws
of nature. A law to make all customs
duties payable in gold might refuse IN
its operation to obey the theories OF the
doctrinaires and work so badly as TO
cause a strong and irresistible demand
from the people for its instant repeal.
The President has attempted to show
how a gold reserve may be rendered un-
necessary-that is, by calling In the green
backs and Sherman notes and replacing
them with bank notes. But our conf
dence in this proposition is small. Be-
sides, any scheme which proposes to retire
the greenbacks will meet with the most
determined opposition from possibly
majority Of the people Of the United
States.
But the consideration OF the Venezuelan
question may put new face upon af-
fairs in Washington. Let us wait time
with patience before we determine 10
legislate too much upon questions which
n new condition Of things may place IN
the background.
